It's nice to see this released after so many years in development... I think this was going before Firaxis even started enemy unknown. Good stuff and there is a custom map pack on their forums that is quite good also.

I read the first book and then couldn't muster the will to continue on with the rest, the only reason that I got that far was because I enjoyed the post apocalyptic setting. None of the characters are particularly likeable and some of the story elements present in the flashbacks are absurd to...

That was hilarious. This show is definitely the best comedy I've watched in years.

What did you think of it apart from your niece's reaction?

The game isn't ready yet even for early access as there isn't much that the community can provide feedback for; all you can do is wander around and chop wood for hours for limited traps/building or play hide and seek with the natives who are fairly resistant to steel axe blows. It's fun at...

IIRC his brother was engaged to her first and then when he died the younger brother fulfilled the obligation due to convention and pressure from his father. It's an old custom for maintaining family alliances via marriage that dropped out of favor with changing times, it happened with widows as...

Bert thought it best to show Don how he really felt... with a floor show. I don't get it either but it was awesome.

Its primary draw is that the main character is basically a villain which is a novelty in a genre laden with plucky, young, self sacrificing characters fighting to right various wrongs and basically save the world. In this we get a malevolent, young, minion sacrificing despot who lusts for power...

I love how they bought that giant computer and all that they seem to have done with it is to put it behind a window with a pretty secretary on display tapping away.

As to point B: "FDA operates a mandatory safety program for all fish and fishery products under the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act, the Public Health Service Act, and related regulations. The FDA program includes research, inspection, compliance, enforcement...

Obviously not but at least they wouldn't have had a government organization to lend their BS legitimacy either.

I think that this VA healthcare scandal, which is nothing at all new, (40 years ago my grandfather opted for private healthcare because he could see the endless waiting lists and people dying even then) aptly demonstrates the future for the ACA. It is only as affordable as the value of a human...

You've heard everything that we've had to say and they are by and large things that have been said many times over the years in various places and are nothing new. That said I am really curious to know whatyou, Elidroth think about the current state of the game and why a sizable portion of...

If it's injured call animal control and ask for the number of the local wildlife rehab center if there is one. If it's fine you could probably just let it go unless you live in a metropolis or something.

No Radio and no creative lounge make Ginsberg go something something... He has always been a bit odd but those things and the constant humming from that giant paperweight have pushed him over the edge. I do wonder what the point of it is though story wise; in earlier seasons he was presented as...

Internet activity is monitored, our phone calls are recorded as a mater of routine, our children are being issued school ID's with RFID chips and now they want to track our vehicle's movements and have us pay for the privilege of doing so. This isn't merely about taxes it's about power and...

My favorite one so far is the Afghan Money Pit, Season 2 Episode 1. One hundred billion dollars down the tube in aid for one of the most corrupt countries in the world and more funding on the same level is on its way all so that our government can temporarily stave off a collapse over there and...

Saying integrity may have been an error as the details change the tone of the story but you are overreacting a wee bit. The story in broad terms is the same (Boat, Man, Good, Evil, God, Salvation, Beasts) just filled up with details (which the original lacked as it's very short) however...

You sound like anyone else who goes into a film expecting a certain experience based upon what you have already been exposed to and thus have a preference for and leave disappointed, I've been there myself. I was bothered by the same things that you were at first but I was able to let that go...

In their hierarchy (as has been established throughout the run of series) an employee does not call a partner into their office and then proceed to tell them what to do, as she well knows, and in doing so she set a roadblock in the way of her project. As for Don being on the shit list... well...

You would have treated someone who was your mentor, was there for you with inspiration and advice after you gave up your first born, who got you your break in the industry and who is still technically your boss like she did? I hope not because that is pretty cold and foolish. In a perfect...

I think that this is part of the point; it shows that this office isn't run by decent human beings, they don't care about Don on a personal level and never had despite whatever he has done for them. It's all about the bottom line and what this or that person can do to benefit the partners and...

Yes so he could die in battle as a warrior and go to Valhalla presumably, that or she is bored of him. Had she and Ragnar really wanted him to live I could think of better ways than to leave him alone and in bed after recently rebreaking his leg.

This affirmed my wish that Horrick had died in the first battle of the season along with that Jarl. It's watchable and still fun to an extent but I do hope that they ditch the predictable and rather unimaginative village intrigue and focus more on raids and battles next season, battles that...

It would have been more dicey, especially if I was running drone defense instead of cloak but bombs do hurt Zoltan shields so I probably would have been fine long enough to break it and attack the weapons rooms. That said I did have maxed out engines/shield and the bosses burst laser/phase 3...

Clicked back... thank you for logging in! Here's your duplicate post! Whoops.

Just got my first advanced hard victory and it was quite an experience. I used the Mantis C and after a score of starter to sector 8 failures I finally managed to get a sector 1-2 that didn't have super med/clonebay, missile, burst ships right off the bat... you'd be surprised how often that...

blah never mind

I guess that there's nothing more important going on somewhere in the world to investigate and talk about. It's always he said this or she said that, or my opinion is, or that body language implies... our media is nothing more than a glorified tabloid racket these days. Anyway those two...

As per IMDB: Lindelof is a writer and producer, known for Lost (2004), Prometheus (2012) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)... It's seldom that a single sentence contained all that I needed to know.

I gave my impressions in the AoW3 thread, check out the most recent page of that thread if you are interested in a rundown of its issues. Basically its a case of wait till the expansion/DLC and see if they can flesh it out enough by then to make it worth playing more than once or twice.

I really liked Endless Space at first but it suffered from most of the same flaws of other 4x games like unbalanced heroes, token complexity, lackluster combat and incredibly samey gameplay. As far as "divergent" content usually goes the first hour or two are mostly great until you figure out...

If you feel invested in any of WoT's characters then you may want to read it properly, if you just want closure then read the summary. I kept reading on past a certain point mainly because I really enjoyed Jordan's Matt but sadly Sanderson wasn't able to duplicate the magic of that particular...

This season... ugh. That is all.

It's 10 years too late. At this point I'd rather see a Farscape movie that takes place in its universe but with a new cast of characters despite whatever juvenile crush I had on Claudia Black. But of course they have to market it at core fans because who else would even know the slightest...

This was an enjoyable film and had it not had a guy named Noah or a large wooden ship it would have easily fit in as one of the better post apocalyptic / sci fi films of recent years. Ray Winstone made a good villain, Crowe was decent and the golem / angels were great additions and made fairly...

Okay

She gabbed about it to Ziggy in episode 7. There are some possible nods the past two episodes that have me inclined to believe that Floki is playing a part for Ragnar; that scene at the party in Ragnar's hall where he is observing everyone through a screen as Ziggy talks to Floki's woman and...

Yeah that is handy and it's pretty funny that the type B has no external doors whatsoever... but with a 4 rock starting crew who needs them. You were right about the Stealth C Kaid it looks pretty painful, I really wish that at least one drone heavy ship would start with the recovery arm, it...

Haha I will look forward to it. Just had an interesting Lanius B run; 2 flak, swarm missile, chain ion and 3 zoltan for power. Pretty much ravaged the entire game with Lanius boarding party until last node before final sector when the enemy jumped away in the nick of time stealing my Lanius...
