So there should be lots of students lining up to become one.

No, Civ IV has the best mods because the game was designed to support them.

Notice they left all the domestic propaganda social media devices alone.

It’s more of an ongoing project.

Isn’t he busy enough buying the United States right now?

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

You joke but meteorologists have received threats because they forecast bad weather on special events.

I’d never heard of him until today. I looked him up on IMDB and the only thing I recognized was Twin Peaks. I tried watching that years ago but got a few episodes in and decided it wasn’t for me.

Still sad to lose someone that a lot of people respected and enjoyed.

Oh great. I haven’t played Humankind but the Civ games have been facing some stiff competition lately. I can’t really blame them for trying to pull in new mechanics. It’d be nice if they were good ones though.

I’m not sure I want a ‘soft reset’ in the middle of the game. The whole point is to play one civilization through to victory.

When the age transition finally comes, it’s like one game ends then another begins.

But why? If I wanted a new game, I’d go to the main menu and click “new game”. I want to keep playing my existing one! I don’t want to have to change civs half way through the game. I see that you get to keep some advantages, like your existing territory and commanders, but were people asking for this? I don’t understand the appeal of this.

I can say that the question of whether this is the best iteration yet will probably be redundant until all the expansions roll out and we see the full vision enacted.

Indeed. At least I’ll have the benefit of reading feedback from 5+ years of DLC and expansions until they bundle it all into a reasonable “complete” edition and I pick it up.

Sociopaths are the only people qualified for the C-suite. The problem isn’t that the wrong people are getting positions high up. It’s that the structure of corporations is designed for that.

Red #3 was invented by Red Foreman, obviously. It’s named after him.

Hi, I’d like to place a bet on last year’s Superbowl. I’ve got a good feeling.

Yeah that article is a slog. It’s 5-10x longer than it needs to be. I get they’re trying to set the tone, but holy shit.

But you have heard of me.

High sodium is a killer.

Fuck Mike Bradley.

Now that that’s out of the way, I completely agree with him (I think this is a first). I’m just some normal guy. I don’t own a business or anything, but I have no plans to cross the border again. I’ve lived in SW Ontario most of my life, and I’ve been across the border many many times. With Trump and his cultist’s xenophobia and general aggression towards anyone non-white, non-christian, non-get-on-your-knees-and-suck-him-dry, I don’t feel safe over there anymore.

They’re not trying ro make a better user experience, squash bugs, or polish the story, they’re “extracting value” - I’d stay far away from this one folks.

This has been true of Ubisoft for many years. I’m glad they’re saying it out loud now though.

And hopefully they get the first anti-trans “fuck off” of 2025.
