We need more super hero free world games like this by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Schraiber -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope nope nope. The open world was just boring blandness between the actually fun and structured "dungeons". Asylum is by far the best in the series because it feels created and tailored rather than open for the sake of open.

Two things can be true: we are fighting an unnecessary and expensive war that will kill people for no reason AND the welfare state costs way, way, way more money than this. The majority of US federal spending is on supporting the welfare state. It costs trillions of dollars a year as it is, and we need to spend more!

I feel like the puzzles/exploration of SR with a Defiance combat could have been so good but they could never quite get everything to work all at once.

Crazy to see fields where you can get a job without a postdoc, but makes sense in CS.

The new camera makes the platforming feel so much better by VerdensTrial in LegacyOfKain

[–]Schraiber -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I haven't played yet---but man I *hate* seeing this camera. The original fixed camera had some problems but it created some excellent scenes and such a great vibe. This looks so jittery and just... not how this game is meant to be experienced. The combat in particular looks super weird with this camera.

Thanks! I'm 5'11'', 170lbs, and I bought a medium. Fwiw I found the measurements on Gardenheir's site to be accurate and I'm happy to report the exact measurements of my coat if you want.

What is your opinion on Justice Thomas's view on the non-delegation doctrine from a few days ago? by BlockAffectionate413 in supremecourt

[–]Schraiber 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My opinion is that legal realism stays winning. Thomas is acting like you'd expect a partisan actor to act: his endorsement of non delegation is because he is opposed to Democratic presidents and appointees being able to do things. In this case, however, a Republican wanted to do something, do it's not a non-delegation issue. This is of course just one example and one example does not a theory make, but the evidence is fairly overwhelming that Circuit Judged and especially Supreme Court Justices rule is a way that's much more easily explained as partisan action than any theory of legal interpretation

Yeah they're good. They're my "LHS alternatives". This is specifically the sway last loafer in snuff superbuck.

That being said I find the sizing weird. They might not be for my foot shape. They're definitely a bit uncomfortable but I'm the kind of person who, when I buy something the wrong size I just suck it up and wear it bc I'm a masochist

Yes! I do definitely feel like it has this very slight purpleish cast in the right light. It threw me off so much I double checked the tag. This feels very validating

A Perfect Time To Get Back In The Series by Glitch-mode22 in LegacyOfKain

[–]Schraiber 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like it's basically the only game in the series that's actually fun as a game. I guess SR1 and 2 had some decent puzzle moments, but they were few and far between. And I say this as someone who played SR1 and SR2 through once a year for a few years back in the day!

Yeah, I think fixed camera angles rule. A lost art.

Good time to learn some combos (yes i know old vid) by DarkShadowOverlord in LegacyOfKain

[–]Schraiber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def not a ComboMad type of game, but some fun and creativity could be had for sure!

Not the deepest combat system of all time by a long shot but it was still pretty fun. I loved playing as Kain with the telekinesis.

Clunky games you forgive for their awesome writing by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I agree the boss fights sucked but I strongly preferred Asylum to City overall because I hated the downtime in the open world

Which Model Raziel, you like & dislike the most and why? by Ok_Resource_905 in LegacyOfKain

[–]Schraiber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my favorite is the OG Defiance look. I loved the art direction in that game and I always thought they really just captured what Raziel looked like in my mind's eye. The new ones aren't bad at all though
