What are you talking about bad voice acting? DX:MD was all serious and professional but it lacked the comic charm of lines like “A bomb’s a bad choice for close range combat”.

Agree. 5 was a fun spectacle but the character switching really was ass, and playing as V it felt like the winning strategy was just buttonmashing. Still was very happy it got made after DMC.

When I visited one part of China I was looking for a big bottle of water to keep in my hotel room and went to the local store. I found a big 5L plastic bottle but when I looked at the label I realised it was Baijiu, not water. Something like 57% ABV, and it cost the equivalent of a few US dollars.

Because the restaurant pizza in Norway costs like 30 usd.

Him publicly being a Nazi is an issue though because it emboldens other Nazis and makes them thing its more socially acceptable to be a Nazi.

It used to be a big deal when a public figure got caught doing a Nazi salute. Public apology, condemnation of Nazism, donation to a holocaust victims charity or similar was expected. For him to do it and not even apologise or try to say it was something else and not be stripped of any roles as a result is a dangerous shift.

He’s an excellent and prolific author of comedic fantasy novels. Its worth at least picking up one of his books to see if its your cup of tea.

You can be held for up to 28 days without charge if you’re suspected of terrorism offences.

I’m not aware of anti terror laws being used against protestors, but the last govt introduced extremely strict anti protest laws under which non violent protestors have been given up to 2 year prison sentences.

A lot of dodgey wiring.

Jagged alliance 3 is a very solid sequel, it is very long though.

There’s also a mod to fix the portraits which imo look awful in vanilla.

The expansion campaigns, especially hordes of the underdark were much higher quality.

The whole reason I burned out on W3 was trying to be completionist and doing all the map markers before moving to the next area.

For me it’s just that the deck is a better low power device and has trackpads. I can play RPGs from the 90s at 3 watts for 8 hours on a single charge. The thing I’m most excited for in a deck2 would be even better performance under 10W.

GOG games work great with heroic because no DRM, almost as easy as steam games. Epic is a pain in the ass though because you need to be logged in to play them. They work offline for a time but every time I travel I have to reenter username, password, 2FA code and captcha. For whatever reason it just refuses to remember the device. Still Civ6 is good on deck and it was free on epic.

Santa Claus wasn’t in any way invented by Coca-Cola. The name, colours, appearance and everything used by Coca-Cola in their advertising already existed in prior works. The only thing they invented was the association with coke.
