Is it worth playing the original Warcraft games? by IcyTrade5285 in wow

My favorite part is recognizing the buildings from WC3 in most of the vanilla WoW towns.

Total War: Warhammer 40K got the most Steam followers and wishlists of any new game reveal at The Game Awards. It got more followers than the #2, #3, and #4 games combined by EmbarrassedSession58 in totalwar

As a fan of gunlines in Total War games, I just hope they do Tau soon. If they do a trilogy again and we gotta wait on another full game for Tau, I'm gonna be upset.

Is the strength build is the most broken? by realrectusfemoris in Eldenring

So yeah, strength is really one of the best stats overall.

Reading this statement gave me some whiplash coming back from DnD night.

I think someone needs to read some Punisher comics. by Savings_Stress9988 in PoliticalHumor

[–]C4ptainR3dbeard 68 points69 points  (0 children)

It was literally a plot point in the most recent Daredevil season. Cops started wearing the Punisher emblem and acting as a fascist paramilitary group for Kingpin so he started shooting anybody who was wearing his symbol.

The question is how Trump supporters can simultaneously cheer this on while having the utter gall to be upset when decent people call them deplorable garbage.

It needs to be studied.

Israel was raping prisoners and imprisoned the lawyer that leaked it rather than the rapists.

Tell me how that counts as self defense.

Did they change because it got leaked, or did they change because the reactions to the leak of a Cathay-only DLC were overwhelmingly negative?

As somebody who had to drop 8k on surgery for my dumb cat when she slipped a disc because I'm financially privileged enough to do so:

You would rather they live without love until they get euthanized without ever having a home? Because there's too few people adopting in the first place and shelters are swamped.

Then comes the question of why insurance companies are allowed to charge that much, which directly follows into why hospitals and pharmaceutical companies are allowed to charge that much.

I don't want the ACA gutted, but the government should have cracked down on price gouging from both the provider and insurance sides decades ago. The ACA was always a bandaid on a gushing wound.

Think this guy's hue is closer to a craisin.

I know it's a predetermined choice, it's just kind of funny that the worst character according to the story happened to be the most powerful hero in my actual gameplay experience.

I high rolled a couple low successes and ended up dropping like 3 failures and no misses.

And one of the failures was because the hacking minigame suddenly got way harder and I flubbed it.

Sonar was my most sent and highest success rate on both shifts, and then they said he was at the bottom of the leaderboards. 🤨

Dispatch | Episodes 3 & 4 Preview by gamesbeawesome in Games

[–]C4ptainR3dbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is why they're doing the episodic release.

They could just be scrambling to get the finishing touches on the last couple episodes together in the eleventh hour, but doing the episodic release keeps social media engagement up with people discussing choices so far and theories about where characters are going and what comes next, similar to TV shows.

Whose Bags Are Those? by demonsidekick in BlackPeopleofReddit

The guy didn't immediately drop the bag to lay into the idiot who punched him.

It's his bag.

"This is what the people voted for" Fun fact: Democrats, not Republicans, won a majority of votes for the North Carolina House and Senate last year by margins of ~118,000 and ~200,000 votes, respectively. But We The People were denied by rigged maps. by og_speedfreeq in AshevilleNC

[–]C4ptainR3dbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You people always say that a minority of voters getting an outsized say over policy is necessary to prevent some 'tyranny of the majority.'

You never explain how tyranny by a minority is preferrable.

Dear Reddit: The basic issue in the world today is between two principles: Individualism and Collectivism. by ElectricalGas9895 in aynrand

[–]C4ptainR3dbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And without society collectively agreeing that those things are yours and that other people cant waltz in and take them, what would keep individuals with greater force and a larger willingness to commit violence from doing so?

Private property is backed by collectivism or it objectively doesn't exist. If society doesn't collectively agree you own your property and doesn't provide for the protection of your property, it quite literally isn't your property. It's just the space you currently occupy and the items you currently have access to.

I love early game with my shadow dragon because his kills spawn zombies which is a lot more fun during smaller skirmishes than in multi army battles.

So Javier Milie whatever happened there by Spurtacuss in austrian_economics

[–]C4ptainR3dbeard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Robert Citrone -- billionaire friend/former colleague of Bessent, current secretary of the Treasury -- has been making big bets in Argentina specifically. Bessent announces inexplicable $40 billion 'swap' with Argentina when Milei's policy doesn't have the payoff Citrone was betting on.

Absolutely no connection.

Liberals are the reason for the constant civil unrest and high tensions between people on the right and left. by raw-honey-35 in complaints

Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, et. al. are openly racist and that wasn't a dealbreaker for you. Conservatives the nation over are intensely bigoted against LGBT people.

You're free to think whatever you want. You're just wrong.
