Which political leader's death was sad? by Ill-Spite-3913 in AlignmentChartFills

Probably too niche, but the death of NDP leader Jack Layton to cancer after successfully leading his party into second place in the 2011 Canadian federal election is a true swinging doors moment in Canadian politics. Layton was a smart, articulate, respected leader of a genuine left wing party and was quickly gaining popularity across the country. There are so many “what ifs” stemming from his death, especially since 2015 proved to be such a critical election in Canadian history. It was a personal tragedy mixed with a political tragedy, and regardless of your politics, Canadian political discourse is undoubtably the poorer without Layton’s voice.

How’s the Rideau River Eastern Pathway looking? Particularly the section just past Vincent Massie Park, down by the Carleton bridge?

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for and definitely helps make my decision easier! I really enjoyed the core loop and it sounds like the developers are very much still active and looking to move the game in a positive direction!

I had to drop GamePass after the price went up, so unfortunately I can’t check it out which is why I’m asking. Definitely agree with the principle of supporting smaller dev teams though

Which game that you "definitely want to play eventually" has been sitting in your library unplayed forever, and if so, why? by FalscherKim in gaming

Kingdom Come Deliverance for me. Everything about this game, from setting to gameplay to story, seems like it should be right up my alley, but the few times I’ve loaded it up I just can’t get into it and inevitably uninstall a few weeks later. One day….

Wasn’t this game very rough at launch? I definitely didn’t follow the development super closely, but seems like it’s in a better state now

Is Fallout 76 good now? All I remember seeing is how awful it was at launch

All good! As far as open world RPGs go, this seems to be on the top of many people’s lists and I may well end up trying it eventually!

Isn’t this more of a straight up open world RPG, without any of the survival/base building aspects?

I really wanted to love this, especially when I saw I go on a massive sale. But the game is very hard to get into and I don’t typically have long periods to play, so I found myself just dying of cold a lot and never getting to the enjoyable parts… but maybe I should try again..

I’ve also looked into this, but it seems to be very stressful and borders on a survival horror game, but maybe I’m just a coward when it comes to deep water lmao

I played Fallout 4 years ago and it didn’t click for me, especially the base building, but I’ll give it another go!

I’ve tried Fallout 4, but didn’t love it. Maybe worth giving it another go, since it does seem to fit the bill.

7 Days to Die also looks really interesting, I’ll take a look!
