    The Last of Us

    The problem was 100% execution. The player is given a reason to hate Abby, they inject a sob story after the fact, then force the player to spare her at the end. Then they try to play it off like "well that's the point of revenge and ending the cycle of revenge!". The show needs to make the...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I always did wonder what the Ascian plan was regarding the 13th. The shard got fucked up - did they plan to just go 13/14 rejoined and call it a day? lol

    Ya, 4 I think besides those they’ll probably save that ace in the hole, though. Those would probably be most useful for bubble expansions since you would have a mostly independent world you can mess around on.

    The Astronomy Thread

    They still want redundancy if possible. SpaceX is doing great atm, but if something happened that prevented them from fulfilling that role, you want a viable 2nd launcher option Otherwise you get that awkward period like we had between the shuttle and dragon for manned launches for example

    Y'Shtola will probably just be studying shit the whole xpac. I don't think we're really "against" the other Scions, probably just a friendly competition between them based on the teams.

    I'm sure we will. I remember watching Toy Story 1 when it came out and thinking that one day video games would have graphics as good as that. Safe to say we are well beyond that now lol

    As far as we know, there were only 3 unsundered Ancients: Emet, Lahabrea, and Venat. Elidibus doesn't fully count because he was the heart of Zodiark and Zodiark was sundered. Making them rogue ancients/ascians doesn't make total sense, because they'd have to explain away Emet. Emet clearly...

    During the trailer for the city, there is a glowing blue kiosk-like sign at one point that has the FF14 style alphabet used on it and some directional arrows. One person who translated it says the top one says "employment" and the bottom one says "soul delivery". That bottom one seems pretty...

    I think they mentioned they will be laying down some of the plot for future expansions. Some ultra technocity is a pretty big thing - outwardly it looks like more advanced Allagan. Since we will be going to Mericydia at some point, I wouldn't be shocked if it has some relation to Allag.

    They showed Cid in the trailer, but I don't recall them saying anything about him being playable

    I won't be shocked if the caster ends up being some nature based one, like a druid. The prior fanfests kept talking about the New World having some type of nature thing going on with some of the cultures. For other guesses: 1) They'll go into more details on the trial and raid series 2)...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    On a side note, Famitsu showed this recently. Bottom left has catatonic Cloud and that pic of Aerith is at the stabby temple. Seems like they might not be deviating from the original

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Tifa is the only wife material. Jessie is just thirsty and Aerith was Zach's hippy girlfriend and Cloud got confused by his fucked up memories Tifa took care of Cloud's ass when he was a vegetable and even put up with his pining for Aerith crap. Plus she owns a bar and has the best body.

    What If...?

    Nah, my point is people trying to use a specific religion as a basis for putting down a particular culture is ultimately hypocrisy if you follow another religion, because they’re all ultimately a) equally as illogical when you boil right down to it - literally the only thing almost all religions...

    Steak made in a parking lot with a crackhead setup will probably be better than what you would get at that Outback lol

    What If...?

    Ya, those silly people. Too bad they didn't believe in a real religion with more believable and rational things like a dude talking to a burning bush and then using magic to make the ocean spread apart. Also, don't forget burning heretics to appease the skyman! You have to keep in mind the...

    City of Heroes

    Like original game release? or the emu server release? Original game release they changed quite a bit - they had the whole City of Villains expansion and added stuff like building a superhero base When the game launched in Germany, they removed the Nazi badguys pretty much at the sametime and...

    City of Heroes

    That's pretty cool - at least makes it more official now. I wonder what the development limitations in the contract are

    What If...?

    They were just like humans all over the earth. You had the peaceful ones, the warlike ones, the trustworthy ones, and scheming ones. Some fought each other, some didn’t, etc. Same with the colonists or European ventures. Although a good chunk of that initial wave (like from Spain) it was...

    What If...?

    I'm not commenting on the 85% figure (that seems high). You're underplaying the impact of a disease on a population that has not had multiple generations to essentially select against genes that make a person predisposed for having a bad/lethal outcome to the disease. Of course Europe is going...

    The Quinfall

    Yup. Shadowbane was a huge world which was like 80% barren plains. Granted they needed space for players to build cities, but the actual outcome was a lot of non-content. Even the developed spots were mostly just forests with the occasional POI sprinkled in it Games that focus on “zomg our...

    Jesus dude, look up history of Canada and the US. There are plenty of historical accounts of trade networks and hubs from the Spanish, French, etc.

    They had trading networks and hubs. The French fur traders exploited the existence of this heavily to get goods they needed, like pemmican

    What If...?

    Another good point - the Black Plague was devastating on Europe, so there is plenty of evidence of a non-resistant population suffering heavy mortality rates to disease. 40-60% of the population died from it. This fucking smooth brain "hur dur diseases don't kill lots of people" is what...
  31. Cybsled

    What If...?

    It does make a disease potentially more lethal or impactful because the population was never exposed to it and therefore you don’t have a population descended from people who survived the disease in the past and therefore genetic predisposition to a bad disease outcome had not been weeded out...

    What If...?

    Disease was the main factor in the conquest of the New World. It's quite feasible that colonization would never have been as rapid as it was in our history if that were not the case. That and existing political rivalries that fractured what could have been a unified front against European...

    Overwatch

    He used the wrong argument for Bobby. You have to speak in a language he understands Review bombing being toxic to the CM people, he wouldn't care. Review bombing driving people away from the game and in turn, less profits from the RMT shit, he would care.

    She probably just wasn't captured. But ya, really solid finale. Last 3 episodes were my overall favorites. That teaser shot at the end of the last episode was pretty cool if you watched the Loki finale.

    It feels like half of the fans of Chronicles of Riddick love it because it is the closest thing they've had to a Warhammer 40k movie lol

    Interesting, Non Political News

    The carry-on problem only exists because airlines started to charge for any checked baggage. As a result, people try to cram as much shit into the "free" carry-on bag and it eats up the limited space available to stow carry-on luggage. Yes, the people trying to game the system at the expense...
