Yeah, probably safest to stock up on onions now, so you won't be caught out. I always keep some on standby for this kind of thing.

I dunno, man, I think KQ6 beats Fate of Atlantis. QFG4 as well, and one or two Space Quest games. I could go on, but that seems sufficient to disprove your thesis!

I'm actually with you on the hot air balloon thing.

The single-player NWN used 3rd edition. I played a lot of NWN2, which was based on 3.5.

Samesies. I think it didn't help that I played the sequel first. It's just really damned dated. Some older games age really well, but NWN did not.

It's true that I'm not on any other social media, but I'm here every day. There really hasn't been much talk about Veilguard at all. Nothing like, say, all the Starfield criticism.

Is it a big commercial failure? I noped out of the series after seeing the direction they went with Inquisition, but I haven't really seen any negative press about it. Kinda seems like the article's just trying to stir up some shit

The sentence can be interpreted either way.

They're just more people who've fallen victim to a well-funded propaganda campaign. Not much different than trumpets—in fact, they share many talking points! Amusingly, both groups would be offended by the comparison.

I'd hazard a guess that they were referring to the "targeted killing of ethnic Russians" made up shit. That's just a Kremlin talking point. Shades of Operation Himmler. I don't suppose you can cite any reputable sources for it?

I do, too, and sadly I've yet to fly on one! I wonder how much TaleSpin has to do with this.

I had similar feelings about this post. Reminds me of a pansexual family member of mine who claims that everyone is pansexual, really, if they just get over their hang-ups. I'm all for people being who they want to be, and feeling free to express themselves. I dislike the patronizing implication that if I don't want to wear a crop-top and skirt, it's because I'm not sufficiently enlightened or liberated.

I don't think that was at all OP's intent, to be clear—just thinking out loud as it were. I appreciate your thoughtful response.

Yeah, I don't worry too much about my GD builds being "end-game viable", I just like finding combinations that are fun to play, and there are enough unique item sets and abilities to keep me entertained for a while. I'll check out Last Epoch—looks like it might be up my alley!
