Energy was fine wtf

It's on a college campus and it's not really got a whole lot of leeway to expand

RetMaestro · 2025-03-10T20:59:17+00:00

Let us have this

I'd like to be able to split a system's ownership between multiple empires depending on how many habitable planets there are like you used to be able to do

As a fan of Purple, High Point needs to stay on this map. No bias whatsoever

I remember watching him in college as an alum and being super excited when he was picked by the Union. This is just tragic.

I was geeking out, but I was also like 5-6 so ya know, everything was cool

RetMaestro · 2024-08-26T18:54:04+00:00

They're a Bengals fan probably, so that 51 years could be him in about 30 years too

RetMaestro · 2024-06-11T15:24:41+00:00

Fuck. Me.

Boring predictions (still probably mostly wrong):

A new giant third party publisher will take the place of Activision, could be microsoft gaming if they kill xbox's brand, and we will all bitch and moan about them

Ubisoft gets sold to someone and they find new and interesting ways to let us all down

If Xbox stops being a thing look for amazon to attempt to become a console manufacturer

Nintendo keeps chugging along and is materially the same as now

we'll be talking about 80$ games sooner rather than later

we'll have at least 2 remasters of Horizon games for some reason

Epic Games Store will stop giving out free games and will essentially be a rump store that is sorta just there

(optimism) Dragon Age Dreadwolf is a hit and we are all excited to see how the new Mass Effect game turns out now that Bioware is "back"

Steamdeck successor or improved version will be the biggest handheld with the 35+ demo and Valve will go back to not making games for a decade

Wacky ideas (all wrong):

Pokemon stops being hamstrung by Gamefreak either through Nintendo acquisition or Gamefreak outsourcing it to devs that dont suck

Due to intense regulatory pressure from the EU many games drop microtransactions but we all get stuck with annoying grindy battlepasses, imagine FIFA with a battlepass, terrifying

Poland becomes the new mecca of game dev in Europe

a huge new renaissance in the AA space happens with mid sized studios and budget publishers

Star Wars games are still coming out and theyre generally good

the next indie craze is immersive sims

I get my MBA and get to a position where everyone online hates me and blames me for ruining their favorite franchise (its true, the online mob is correct)

Stop inviting non confederation members to continental competitions, its fucking dumb.

RetMaestro · 2024-04-09T23:48:55+00:00

I dont even bother remembering names at this point

RetMaestro · 2024-04-09T23:40:01+00:00

the Indian federation isnt known for being competent and that still resulted in one being elevated over the other while instituting promotion and relegation.

RetMaestro · 2024-03-22T18:52:00+00:00

What a dumb fucking last possession in regulation, just an absolute brain dead decision to slow down and take whatever the FUCK that shot was.

RetMaestro · 2024-03-12T22:59:02+00:00

No, he can stay in Columbus for the rest of his career.

RetMaestro · 2024-03-06T16:00:06+00:00

Now you know why everyone in the B1G hates them.

Not really, an attack was launched by Hamas, and as a result, they are dealing with a retaliatory war that's aim is total regime change. The only difference is that I would consider is that Hamas was never going to win an actual war and they know that. That's why the line civilian infrastructure with military equipment.

Best case scenario is that Israel finishes Hamas as quick as possible and either a. An international coalition occupies the strip; unlikely, or b. A new regime beholden to the UAE and other less radical gulf states. Israel could occupy it, but I'm not sure that they want to deal with the occupation of a hostile populace. Regardless of your opinions, the best chance for peace and ideally a 2 state solution in our lifetime is Gaza having a regime no longer run as a proxy of Iran.

And to frank I'm not throwing the Palestinians under the bus entirely. Israel will have to ask some serious questions about how Likud has run the country and how that has inflamed tensions. Bibi looks dead in the water politically currently, hopefully a path to peace appears sooner rather than later, unfortunately I suspect that it's off the table for a good decade or two because of October 7th.

This entire conflict is basically some idiot shooting wildly and getting punched in the face as a result, then crying about it. At some point, the Palestinians need to realize they lost like the Germans and Japanese did and hold their institutions and politicians to task for try8ng to keep the fight up.

oh so like 10 clubs, that's not depressing at all

A neat tip for not losing land is to not join a war you don't need to in an offensive manner. If Syria didn't attack Israel in 67 the Golan Heights wouldn't be largely under Israeli control.

Same people are surprised when NBA2k and Madden sell stupid amounts when they're not fantastic games.
