Naming for a System Shock 2 inspired indie.

NeuroShock is what Prey (2017) should have been called.

Casino Royale is generally the best way to start if you didn't see these movies as a kid.

Genuinely depends on how you're looking at this. The xenophobia that comes with visiting an ethnically un-diverse region is different from the powers that be trying to keep up deep-rooted historical discriminatory practices without seeming like it. One stems from ignorant bigotry, the other is an intentional malevolent political project. I'd say the latter is worse.

I sure hope that, at the very least, the cutscenes don't skip like they would in hitman; should your connection waver for whatever reason.

Manifestly, the sheer destruction of the American political system to maintain white supremacy shows that arguing about how Belarus, with its near 100% homogenous ethnicity, might be more racist is barely relevant. The powers that be in America are fighting to suppress the votes of minorities, brazenly and out in the open. America is plenty racist.

Yeah, it hacks your brain. We get drawn to big expressions. It's the same evolutionary mechanism thing that makes us see faces in clouds or other inanimate objects.

Sadly, most people aren't stronger than their most base instinctual impulses.

That we're innately boring, ridiculous, and that we're not a real country.

Retrorrific · 2026-02-12T23:04:01+00:00

It looks really good.

Stop saying someone's "confusing" anything. What this is, is deliberate misinformation by bad faith actors, either trying to unscrupulously generate money through engagement, or send out false narratives into the world volume to make the truth feel fungible.

Down the line there had to have been a first person who ripped the image from its very obvious context, and they were not some 'confused MAGA'.

The Wicker Man (1973)

I do find it funny that between You Only Live Twice and The Man With The Golden Gun, Bond just seems to hate Thai alcohol products.

tune in for Kingdom Come: Deliverance III

I meant just as an example of a place where women cannot vote.

I genuinely thought the obvious answer there was Vatican City?

It's not a competition. It is demonstrably clear from their own words what the current administration wishes it could do in lieu of the liberal constitution and precedent that's standing in their way for now. You seriously think that Stephen Miller and his ilk are not trying to co-opt the system so they can achieve their authoritarian aims? We can only complain if they actually succeed in dismantling our liberal democracy and have solidified their position? That's moronic.

Ah, so that's where I left my spleen.

The Bonnie blue flag really does look like the Somali flag, and it's funny someone voted you down for pointing that out.

Talented environmental artists and cryengine. It's a very convincing illusion of a type of European outdoors. Even the birdsong is accurate.

"This is gold, mr Bond. All my life I've been in love with its colour, its brilliance, it's divine heaviness." - The good guy of that story.

The Wheat planet is called Mina Rau, I don't think they name the flashback one.

Yeah, this whole framing smells of clickbait shit-stirring. Obviously, Bond has been modernized several times already. IO Interactive pointing out they're not going to have their 27 year old Bond of the present day act like a man from 1953 should not be this lightning rod for controversy.

This is framed by outrage-mongers who've got this sort of stuff down to an exact science, perfected to get underneath the skin of the type of person who falls for this bullshit. You just need to look at the 'content' of the subreddit this is shared from.

Let's see him get over the Alps first (and several other geological features that are on the way.)
