    Yes! Haven't you heard, when an IP stops being profitable the IP Fairy comes to take the IP away to release all source code onto the great Github. Just look at Electronics Arts and how many IPs they have lost due to this.

    Targeted demographics have been a thing in both Hollywood and advertising for a very long time. As a way to get through commercial breaks (back when I used to watch TV with commercials in it) I would try to figure out the various targeted demographic. Basically, if you don't see someone that you...

    Peacemaker

    It's more about knowing current Hollywood and/or what's "acceptable" for TV show runners to put on TV in the west (BBC inserted non-white nobility in a TV show about Henry VIII (Wolf Hall S2) ). If you see any group that is only white people, they are basically the bad guys. While watching the...

    So your saying if that dude just color coordinated to his sneeks, in all pink, he would be good to go as a Eurofag? Also, if I walk around in a velour track suit will everyone just assume I'm a Slav and not talk to me? ...or does it have to be Adidas? On a serious note, blending in is always...

    The solution is obvious: Since DBG is owned by a Russian Oligarch, in order to skirt sanctions on Russia by getting money into the western banking system, the developers of THJ need to sell all their code to a company backed by a Ukrainian Oligarch! Then they can run it as a charity for...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Moon Druid is a solidly middle of the road spec. In large part due to items not working with shapeshifting means that a bunch of other specs are stronger. Not only due to the amount of items in this game but also due to how a bunch of items synergize together.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Even on custom (multi-save) "honor" difficulty, the game through chapter 1 and almost to the end of chapter 2 has been pretty easy (no barrel-mancing). So if 2 specs share some items, I don't necessarily need every character to be BiS. I just like to feel like I am utilizing as much loot as...
