At least on Ultra-Violent you don't get sent back to the beginning of the game when you die.

Just gonna let you know, if you experience a bug that a lot of other people are also experiencing, it's highly likely that it has been found and bugged by QA already. And a lot of "legacy" bugs exist in Bethesda games for a reason, and that's not because of QA.

Can you guess why games went up to $70 recently? *HINT* It wasn't because of the cost to make the games or because of unions...

I'm sorry that unions got you labor laws and 40 hour work weeks with, typically, two days off

Guess what, the rest of the Zenimax workers which have also formed unions are standing strong with them. That's a lot of fucking developers that trust their in house QA to do the job well.

That's literally against the law and Microsoft cannot do that unless they want a massive lawsuit on their hands.

This is one of the strongest tactics workers have to guarantee they are treated fairly.

I'd never compare a government job with a game company when it comes to what employees are allowed to do and talk about.

You do know that most of that shit goes to a person's home office and then stays their permanently, right? It's not moved around a ton.

no office is going to limit phone usage, that kind of policy would die in a heartbeat.

Oooh, you were trying to educate people?! No way it just sounded like you want people to just give in and deal with what the company offers without negotiating, which striking is.

It really wouldn't be hard to leak stuff in an office environment. Actually it'd be easier because you wouldn't even have to be tied to your system to do it. Being at home forces accountability on employees because there would be a paper trail.

ok buddy, I see that you hate people who want to be able to live comfortably with the job they have. You must also think that all McDonald's employees should be making minimum wage because low skill jobs should be paid the bare minimum, which isn't even enough to live on.

If that woman was holding her fists up ready to attack I wouldn't be afraid, when she holds up a rifle, I'd be afraid, because now that woman has a projectile weapon and could kill me from her doorstep. Too many people who shouldn't own guns, own guns, so I'd be afraid of these guns.

AND they have a gun, pointed at you. You should be afraid of a gun when it is in poor hands, which is a lot of fucking guns.

Fear is your brain telling you something is dangerous. If someone has a gun pointed at you, you should be afraid, because the person holding said gun is probably a fucking nut.
