  • I didn’t get it right away, since I try not to buy anything in the first month it’s out so I get a good feel of the game. Also, you know… poor. But mostly the first thing.

    But holy shit the videos of dragon fights… I had to fight an impulse buy.

    Since then I’ve spent over $100 on various copies for various consoles and my computer, all on sale. It may not seem like much, but when 95% of my library was purchased during sales and events… That’s a lot.

    It’s not perfect, but there are so many mods for it, you can tailor it to whatever you want. Personally, I like a bit of survival mechanics like food/water and temperatures/wetness. I also like the older oblivion style of magic combat.

    Bethesda may not have made the greatest video game of all time, but at this point it might as well be the best fantasy RPG-lite sandbox I’ve played. The only thing that could make it better is a settlement system like fallout. I like to build.







  • Well said.

    The only point I mildly disagree with is that all jokes should be on the same level, as some things are just… Not jokes. They simply masquerade as jokes because the person telling you their views doesn’t want the potential backlash if you disagree with them.

    Chapelle’s stuff strikes me as more of that.

    He’s just telling us how he feels and tries to layer it with “jokes” so he can act like he’s somehow in the right and we’re the ones who just “can’t take a joke”.

    That’s pretty case dependent though, and someone who knows Chapelle better than I, or even someone with a different upbringing clearly can think differently.

    There’s just so much that you could actually have a comedy routine about that’s not divisive.



  • Oh, there’s plenty of inconsistency, and I’m definitely biased, no doubt about it.

    (rant ahead, feel free to skip)

    Of course, I agree with KG, and it’s not really a “joke” for me.

    So any answer I give you will be pretty heavily skewed.

    That said, I do kind of think the DC thing was a bit overblown, but I also think he turned into a piece of shit who thinks he’s allowed to punch down on others, but you aren’t allowed to punch down on any group he’s part of. “can dish it, can’t take it” crowd.

    But especially given how successful his career has been (and I fully recognize his struggle in getting started), and continued to be, his complaints fall on deaf ears.

    But yeah, I don’t claim to be consistent with how I judge people’s “in the moment” things, and since the people I oppose have no concept of “consistency” (as well as them actively trying to make people like me and those I love cease to exist) I don’t really see a problem with that.

    There’s no point in fighting fair when you’re facing oblivion.

    And krashmo this isn’t directed at you, if anyone wants to try and tell me that “that’s not what they want”, I grew up in a pretty republican heavy area, that also attracted a lot of progressive young families, so I’ve seen more violence directed at other than I care to recount. It’s not a “maybe eventually” scenario in my head. It’s “now”.

    Sorry this turned into a bit of a rant.






  • Here’s my take:

    the people profiting off shows and podcasts where they do this sort of thing are absolutely immoral, bordering on outright bad. Evil is a bit too intense, but you get the idea. Unless they’re donating any revenue to help children, then they’re shitty.

    The people doing the baiting are only immoral IN MY OPINION if they are the ones to initiate things. If they sit back and passively respond while the guy starts sending dick pics and suggesting they meet to have sex, then it’s not immoral in my opinion. When they go into a conversation with “I’m a minor, let’s meet for [REDACTED]” then it’s still wrong.

    Of course, on the other side of the screen, the guy either suggesting or agreeing with meeting up is clearly always in the wrong.

    Both parties involved can be in the wrong.



  • I’ve come to the realization that the only people truly believing ruZZian excuses, are people too young to know better. And not in a “hurr it’s all 12 year Olds” kind of way but in a “you have not paying attention to the wider world for long enough to know how some places just are”

    And yeah, sure we all know what we want the world to be, but unfortunately right now we have to deal with how things are.

    And how things are shows that Russia is clearly in the wrong here, full stop.
