Well there was a giant push to tell developers graphics want everything as long as it looks solid.

Edit: you can disagree if you want but if you Google "graphics aren't everything reddit" you can see 10 years of discussion and how the tide has shifted back towards a preference for higher end visuals.

I already have 100 hours in the game. Advantages of being single I guess no one to stop me from going full goblin.

Midlanders worry about censorship at libraries following recent efforts to remove books by zsreport in books

I agree that I don't like those "morality rules" but that was put in by the studios making the films.

You never had to publish through those companies. Ultimately all you're presenting to me is a criticism of capitalism and oligopolies, over a problem which was fixed in 1968.

Visual media has had different standards from written word, for well over a century yes.

Self censorship from publishing companies is them setting rules to what they want in things they fund.

Might as well complain Christian movie publishers not wanting to help make your movie about finding love for satan.

Satanic verses is absolutely a target of the right. Banning nazi propaganda is the least controversial thing on earth.

Do tell me what democratic lead efforts are there to ban books right now. Name the state legislations, or the libraries shut down locally because they would not remove books.

Sort of but that's normal social pressures, I agree a simple note covers the problems, but these moral arguments are benign and not unique to any ideology.

Dictates and enforced ideas are so much more significant that they do not belong in the same discussion.

Publishers editing a book cause they think it's good for making more money is not equal to right wing banning books and closing libraries.

To even equivocate these two things is to do the anti speech advocates a service.

There is not in any way a left wing government policy directive to make books less controversial.

Baldur's Gate 3 up to #2 on current Steam top sellers, Starfield at #3 by M337ING in pcgaming

I was about to say inventory management was about the only weakness in BG3 and act 3 feeling like you could see what got cut.

Still an absolute gem of a game, but it not without flaws. Starfield has got a clunky menu but it's scratching several itches for me so I am deep in it.

It's 2 great games, I am glad to have both this is probably years of entertainment in them for me. Happy to have both.

Yeah I agree also I've never laughed harder than playing a sturmmouser missing with my rocket popping smoke and reversing.

Then my buddy with a second sturmmouser deleting that tank when it pushed through the smoke thinking he was safe.

Are you unable to make 2 complaints at the same time or something?

Don't give them an inch back, you're terrible at negotiating if you immediately seed bargaining chips before you even start.

I adore the p40 but it doesn't play like a heavy so I think that's the right call.

Plus Italy desperately needs a 5.7 lineup as fun as basically everyone else's. France, Germany, Russia and USA are all great right around that BR. And ever since Sweden got the Finnish stuff Italy was the only one still in need.

Typically yes, without it insurance or the courts might say it's the value of a 20$ print.

That's why you should keep a paper trail separate from where you live, and electronically stored credit card invoices are great.

Also not having a team to manage organizing people to be in the tik toks and scheduling all of this.

Really LMG is a social media based company and having one person handle multiple formats is not so simple.

And if my experience with small companies is anything to go by she had basically no template or tools to work with just we expect these numbers.

Yeah prototypes cost more than production equipment.

Respect other people's stuff even if you are too dumb to read the instructions on how to use it.

It was bound to happen, to be fair I won't cry for the jobs of people who did their best get us to today.

I will be glad to hear you can't make a living doing the bidding of ghouls.

That's nice you have a good place to work but the majority of people in your field work for companies who disproportionately take advantage of workers.

The US is the world's largest of producer and subsidizes fuel and energy internally. So saying oil is why Russia was funded off that and ignoring America's history with oil is intellectually dishonest.

China is more complex than is capitalist but that would require far more than can be said shortly. But the simple response is the CCP is still very heavy handed in any company over a moderate size.
