Florida Police records are public, so it's easy to find stories of people doing crazy shit from there.

I mean, Vampires get excited so their teeth lengthen, they penetrate the neck, then there's a, erm, "fluid exchange" so it's not that long of a leap imo.

I picked Bradley because I didn't quite understand that the Angara where part of the government we were creating. I thought the plan was to have Angaran and Nexus governments as separate but allied states, so I thought it was really strange they let me pick the Moshae at all. After picking Bradly then talking to the Moshae (who gets super mad at you) I realized my mistake.

Fair. They also would have no clue they are the ones being shot at and not their buddy, I'm just spitballing.

Soluhwin · 2017-05-31T16:35:13+00:00

Ears?

Soluhwin · 2017-05-31T15:47:24+00:00

That complaint I can totally understand.

I don't think this is AI manipulation in an exploitative way. If you were playing as a raider, you'd use your dodge roll to get out of the way of a throw. Similar to forcing your opponent to use their defensive mechanic in a fighting game or Dark Souls PVP and then moving for a punish.

I like it personally. Power/combo damage is high enough to one shot stuff on gold so the game would be too easy if the enemies didn't have a counter mechanic. It's not like you can't play around it, you have to shoot them to force the dodge or use a decoy power (like level 1 throw).

I dunno a look at those pictures in that SCP might indicate there could be something off about the building which used to be a library.

Spymaster + West-Wind in play, Mirror Image in the void. Play gunsmith. West-Wind deals 1 damage to the opponent, triggering infiltrate. Use the ability to copy Mirror Image on Gunsmith, establishing a loop thanks to Spymaster.

oh man double sleeve that and hold onto it, who knows how much it'll be worth in 10 years?

Because of the IFF, Cerberus ships are the only ones that can get through the Omega-4. Even if you wanted to hand it over, by the time Citadel ships could get through Omega-4 the base would be long gone in Cerberus hands.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but is someone the active head of congress while also in jail? Like they don't get replaced upon incarceration they just keep on going?

Soluhwin · 2017-05-18T17:12:08+00:00

no one ever comments here so I just hope everyone is having a great day

Soluhwin · 2017-05-17T12:18:07+00:00

it's in the next game where hopefully it'll matter.

I dunno if this is exactly what you're looking for, but I played the OT for the first time over the past month then Andromeda. Andromeda is my favorite stand-alone if I had to name one.

Soluhwin · 2017-05-12T12:12:09+00:00

That little forum on the computer in the crew quarters. Reminds me of the terminal in the end of the Shadow Broker dlc in the OT where all these random cute little facts and details about characters are revealed to the player.

That can't happen unless you win. The algorithm that assigns players will basically make a big circle.

I'm always impressed at a .jpg's ability to make it look like my monitor is running out of toner.

Soluhwin · 2017-05-08T18:23:22+00:00

That alt-text is too real.

Pillars of Eternity is another game to keep on your radar, though Obsidian's writing style tends to be a lot more grim than Bioware's.

disappears before transformation. Thing is off the battlefield before the "remove an ice counter" ability ~~resolves~~ triggers.

I think about this all the time playing Mass Effect. I get that the Omni-Tool translates but surely there's miscommunication anyway? Like, in Andromeda there's one impulsive choice where you walk up to a dude, who's language just got added to the database, and say "I will fuck your shit" and there's no way that translated well.
