My CD player had an FM transmitter that I tuned the car radio to.

Babylon 5 had wizards.

From my quick search and bad memory, it can be played solo, but it looks like combat requires a group to enable all the feats and abilities. Doesn’t look like they’re implementing a solo build that can do it without some serious grind. But I’m sure someone will game out a solution.

I will probably still take it for a quick spin if the reviews are good, but as an old dude who can’t dedicate time to MMOs to be good at them, I’d just rather all games be made to suit my particular tastes. /s

Shame it’s an MMO. Looks pretty though.

Damn. I was only on season 4 of Stargate.

Still, the seas are wide and free. Yo ho ho my friends.

I’d estimate that 90%+ of us would be dead in a matter of months if not weeks.

Consider the significant lack of food available. Think about how much food the average person has in their house. Probably a week, maybe two. Perhaps a month if you’re wise and start rationing immediately. But most won’t. Most people would be in denial at the start and assume someone or something would rescue us.

Now consider how much food there is available at your local grocery store. And how many people that store could feed. Compare that to the population of the geographic area that store supports and you’ll see that for the most part we would be out of food in a matter of months.

Sure we could scavenge and perhaps hunt small game, but that’s limited and not something most people could do. But to get to a point where we’re actually able to do some level of substance farming, that could take up to a year to complete depending on the season society collapses. Before we get there most of us would have staved to death. Probably too many would die and there wouldn’t be enough labour to work the farms either.

And that’s just considering food. There’s still the issue of clean potable water, and infections or other health issues that turn deadly quickly without modern medical intervention.

And these issues are all compounded if you live in a high density urban environment. Which many do.

TLDR: if society collapses, it might be wise to just bow out before things get really bad.

Although you should be using an RFID blocking case to hold your cards.

Empire at War is a viable alternative while you wait for this.

This is a decent and fun 4X game. Definitely worth the new price if you enjoy those games.

In penny’s please. I’ll let you pay for shipping. :)

I’ll take that bet.

How would you like to pay me?

Yup. I was willing to watch one or two short ads before I watch a video, but the mid rolls and unskippable 30+second ads just made me say “well that’s enough of that”. Now I haven’t seen a YouTube ad in a long time.

I don’t think that’s entirely accurate. There were other paths to citizenship (iirc something akin to the peace corps and perhaps even business success? It’s been a while since I read it). But it wasn’t just military. It’s just that military was the easiest for most people.

As a metaphysical solipsist, I haven’t decided yet.

I also agree. But for a for-profit company like Reddit, there should be a threshold for certain subreddits that require mods to be paid.

That is, for a major/popular subreddit like pics the mods should be paid by Reddit.

For a minor subreddit like r/hotgirls whowanttohavesexwithgcanuck the mods can be unpaid.

While I don’t disagree…. I’d just like to say, that if you pay enough for porn, you can get exactly what you’re looking for.

ROI isn’t worth it though.

As someone who will never play these games ( not my thing), how is this implemented? I would assume that expecting users to rate other players would be burdensome and wouldn’t have the legs to work over a long period of time.

I truly like the idea, as the toxicity in online gaming is a primary reason I will never play these games, but I also wouldn’t want to personally rate the folks I play with every match either. Just lazy. But if it was easy and streamlined I wouldn’t mind it.

Just curious on how it all works I guess.

Nope. Kingpin from the Marvel TV show Daredevil.

I was disappointed by the lack of Pathfinder. To the point where I think this author isn’t credible.

BG3 is a much prettier game. And by a lot.

But the Pathfinder games are a more immersive adventure.

How you gonna write all that and not even give a hint at what Means Testing is?
