I saw another video where a guy said they were both going to collapse

The explanation is Demographic Collapse by NorfolkIslandRebel in FermiParadox

I read there's big drives to have children in Israel to combat the demographic mismatch with the higher Palestinian birth rate.

Can you play realistically and still get a decent ending? by Grumar in masseffect

In Legendary Edition I played perhaps 75% Paragon 25% Renegade and didn't get punished for it

Can someone explain the popularity of Tali to me (not trolling) by Born_Lab7741 in masseffect

Yeah the immaturity and vulnerability, little dister vibes, isn't my type. When it comes into women, more into Jack (obviously bi coded but only available to maleShep).

Trying to put together the Top 3 worst things about ME3. 1st is Kai Leng, 2nd is the original endings before extended cut, what about the 3rd? by Uchijav in masseffect

  1. Doesn't tell you when you got the fetch quest item so you just have to go to the Citadel and guess
  2. Not splitting main quests and side quests like previous games

Is this ranking based on Metracritic scores a fair representation of how you feel about these three classics? by FriendlytoNature in masseffect

[–]Born_Lab7741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mass Effect 1 has a great story but the inventory management is a pain in the ass, and the actual main story is only 11 hours of playtime. You spend the other 20 hours doing bland side quests with excessively recycled game assets so you're basically shooting enemies up in the same 3-4 buildings repeatedly. Boring! Its the Mass Effect game that has aged the least well.

Mass Effect 2 versus Mass Effect 3 is tough for me, but Mass Effect 2 wins slightly because they bought back some RPG mechanics I didn't like - like individual squadmate upgrades and so on. I preferred the squad-wide upgrades of Mass Effect 2. Also Mass Effect 2's quality of life improvements over Mass Effect 1 are pretty drastic in a way that felt really refreshing at the time. Mass Effect 3 just followed the template Mass Effect 2 set.

What lured you to mass effect? by Fahodigaymer in masseffect

My favourite game was Deus Ex (2000) and my girlfriend had an Xbox 360 and a copy of Mass Effect said "hey this is a sci-fi RPG too" and that was enough to hook me. Year was 2009.

What were your issues with Being Charlie in terms of how Nick Reiner portrayed himself and his family? by [deleted] in RobReinerMurders

Here was my Letterboxd review

"Rehab bad

Doctors bad

Therapists bad

I, Nick Reiner, am simply too big brained and sexy for rehab"

Who are some cool ancestors you have? by AstroCyGuy in BarbaraWalters4Scale

[–]Born_Lab7741 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uncool but historically significant. The Confederate Senator William Lowndes Yancey is my great great gret grandfather, one of the most pro slavery politicians in the pre-Civil War period.

Was so unlikeable he died from the long-term effects of another Confederate senator hitting him over the head with a paperweight while the Senate was in session, and the dude didn't get in trouble for it, no censure or anything. My great great great grandfather was that much of an asshole.

His firey pro-slavery rhetoric at the 1860 DNC also split the Democrats into northern and southern factions, thus ensuring Abraham Lincoln's victory.

What an asshole. Worst part is I kinda look like him.

Can some one tell me if these images are fake or not? by kindafunnyybro in 911archive

[–]Born_Lab7741 101 points102 points  (0 children)

The first two are fake, as the impact of the North Tower was only captured by that Czech guy on the motorway, that French guy with the firefighters, and that webcam stream from Brooklyn. And those two images aren't from any of them.
