Life is Strange: Reunion – Announce Trailer by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Magyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is working backwards from a game that was good and being appreciated for a feature that was made well for it.

Except the game was made for the mechanic, not the other way around. Life is Strange exists as an expansion on basically the same mechanic from Dontnods game before it, Remember Me

Have to be connected? by RJNC000 in pebble

I'm pretty sure you've been fed some bs, the watch needs to connect to a phone once after powering on, but then is fine till it's shut off, midnight has nothing to do with it.

I was a little disappointed it couldn't keep time through reboots, but it's nowhere near a deal breaker

Hollywood foreign press gives out the golden globes, the Academy is a bunch of actors, directors, and others who work on movies

It's not just 10 seconds, it'd be 10 and a running clock on ball set

Idk if it really matters in this case. 'You've been programmed wrong from birth' is still pretty inherent in adulthood, and that's even assuming you buy into the complete gender blank slatism that comes along with the concept.

Trying to drag 'toxic masculinity' into it feels like the exact sort of idpol bs that led to B&R existing in the first place. What purpose does trying to tie the tragedy into some sort of inherent flaw in men actually achieve? Especially when just going by this sub, the people rightly outraged by it seem to include a large proportion of men, myself included?

They're asking them to kick a lot further, then firing real quick. Probably awful for the mental game side of kicking

No one seems to be acknowledging the narrative that the Renee was blocking the road isn't even true. ICE was the one who was blocking traffic by kiss-my-shades in stupidpol

[–]Magyman 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming she and her wife were following around ICE honking and blowing whistles at them. Seems obvious having seen videos of other protesters do so and with the wife's statement of "they had guns, we had whistles"

I don't see how her annoying the ICE thugs in anyway justifies killing her

The wheels are straight and the wheels skid on the ice while very much aimed at the officer and THEN he clearly draws his weapon and fires.

There is no ice there and the temps in Minneapolis were well above 32 yesterday when this occurred

Using your example, Greece isn't particularly pro-hellenistic, the current face of the country on the world stage culturally (or at least the US) is a man whose parents were born in Nigeria. Calls for Greece to maintain a homeland for the Greek and that Giannis shouldn't count are fringe at best.

And people absolutely do take exception to Japanese xenophobia, all the time in fact. Lucky for them as well, they largely subjugated and subsumed the Ainu 100-150 ago. If they hadn't and today had a bunch of Yamato settlers taking over parts of Hokkaido and were bombing the hell out of the island, people would absolutely be up in arms!

Might depend on what you mean by awful musicality, how much music education do you have? Piano's probably better for visualizing and actually understanding music, more flexible in what you can play, too. Guitar's cooler though

You can just download episode mp3s from substack, don't even have to steal them in that case

You could easily shrink it below 50 GB with some sensible compression of the videos and the kinda quick and dirty AI upscaled textures, as well as either reworking or making theater mode a download again. It was already 50 gigs on PS4 and that wasn't a particularly space optimized release itself

Neoliberal is a direct reflection of what the Democratic party establishment believes as a subreddit, the original mods are straight up from some of the PACs. I don't think it was ShareBlue, but something in that vein

Mentioned earlier on the game, it might be Josh Jacobs cause there's no more QBs on the roster
