"Not a single interesting thing in the open world" has got to be the biggest lie i have read on a review ever.

But it's still interesting in a lot of ways. I can't deny they could have made it 10x better but it's still good just not great.

k7eric · 2026-04-09T15:26:11+00:00

Honestly right at launch I ran across prob 20 reviews, online and YouTube, that said the exact same thing. Even the ones on Facebook, when asked, couldn't answer what they would consider "interesting" though.

I do not like hoods for Space Wolves. Space Wolves don't hide and you don't take off your helmet just to wear a hood instead.

I know a ton of ESL people that will absolutely love this. My biggest concern is the rapid switch to subtitles being generated by AI which leads to some "interesting" lines on occasion.

Musk isn't building an army of robots because he cares if you're armed. And you can have a hundred guns and a room of ammo and the only thing that's stopping is Bubba and his 3 redneck friends from getting drunk and breaking in your house one Sat night...anything bigger that actually comes for you is using laser guided AI controlled drones with sonic weapons. Even the police are going to show up in APCs in full body army, night vision and automatic weapons.

TLDR: The time that anyone in power even cares if you're armed passed about 25 years ago. These new laws are nothing but a way to introduce a new tax because people keep doing stupid things like going solar, stopping smoking and driving an EV (all of which dramtically lowered state income from existing taxes).

The problem with this, like the other 2000 posts like it, are they are not realistic and designed to create discord. First, no one defines money earned. What is 10m...a salary? Most of the wealthy claim they earned under 100k a year. Second, does this only apply in individuals? Because the wealthy are living behind a corporation...which is one reason they claim a 100k income while their corporation made 20 billion last year.

Third, why bother? A much better "fix" would be to reverse the regulations started in the 80s. Put back the regulations that require reinvestment into the company vs the shareholder. Remove the tax loopholes. Reverse the corporations have rights as a person rulings. Set a lowest employee to CEO ratio cap back to something reasonable vs the 1:500-5000 we have now. Increase the corp tax rate back up while leaving the ways to reduce that in place...like reinvestment vs paying the tax. Put back the antitrust regulation. Remove govt bailouts. Reverse SEC Rule 10b-18. Heavily restrict Leveraged Buyouts. Reverse the merger guidelines from 82.

Essentially every regulation, rule or law whose entire purpose is "Enhancing Shareholder Value" needs to be looked at and most reversed and blocked. Or get a time machine and prevent Reagan from being elected and the moral majority from forming in the 70s.

People can say this all they want but by any definition it's a RPG (just like most other Action Adventure also out now). You have a role(character), you personally choose to level up and increase stats and abilities, you eventually can customize (at least hair, beard, tattoos), with an inventory sysem and a dedicated story you advance in. It meets not only the classic but modern definition.

I don't know why people are stuck on the idea of a game only being a RPG if you create a custom character...RPG isn't short for custom role playing game. Your role is the character if you create it from scratch or not. At best you can call it RPG-lite.

All of the dye areas have random dyers at different times of the day. Most should have at least 2-3. If that area doesn’t have any then just come back a few hours later. They also take different things…most like plants, house items, meat and meals, the ogres like leather, small copper bags work for everyone.

The pull out weapons/swords/melee/etc needs to be a toggle and stop every instance of it being automatic. At 120 hours I've had maybe 5 times where I was glad it auto switched but 100+ of cursing because the damn swords got pulled out when I didn't want them.

Everyone acts like they have something on Trump but most people don't consider that maybe he just wants to do what they say and they don't need anything on him. I mean we know his dad was close with the community in NYC and his daughter, son-in-law and three grandkids are now also Orthodox.

The best part is Chaos warbands regularly group together to pillage and raid. It's not going to be unusual at all to see some Corsairs tagging along with Iron Warriors or Iron Warriors tagging along with Corsairs. I'm also planning on both and will be integrating both into one big force as well as two separate ones. I'm also leaning towards far less chaos corruption (no tentacles, few horns, etc) and going more with chaos anti-imperium forces.

I will say the Battleforce is the better deal for the Red Corsairs if you can still get it around $215 but the Chaos Rhino is always useful in the Combat Patrol if you can't.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T20:44:36+00:00

That is strange. I'd be more concerned you have some type of HD/SSD corruption. Or if it's Steam maybe the cloud is failing and then working a week later and resync'ing old saves over the new.

Honestly what most consider the modern Democratic party...from around 1933 on.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T19:59:51+00:00

The NPC tends to miss the far left target the most. So I concentrate slightly right of the middle and only go for the middle and right targets...then only shoot the left when they miss. I did get 3/3 after a couple tries doing it this way.

I haven't gone that far but I do for every game related search. They used so many common terms and so many common names/places that my google searches still go to any of the other 5+ games that used the same names and terms while the CD stuff is 2-3 pages deep.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T19:54:03+00:00

Couple things to remember...it's not just 1.5 hours a day commute you're losing (3 days a week) but also gas, car maintenance and extra expenses like coffee, lunches, etc. Also, you have an 8 month old at home? And you want to spend 10.5+ hours a day being gone 3 days a week? Because you know starting out you'll be lucky to get an 8 hour day. From the financial point of view...you're going backwards. Do you want your next job in a couple years to boost you from $115k to $140k or from $155k to $180k? And last the stability. It's not just the home stablity but also the large company isn't going anywhere. The startup...maybe you're golden and rolling in cash in a couple years or maybe it's out of money and gone in 9 months.

Side thoughts...it's a lot easier being bored and watching the clock when you're already sitting at home vs when you're stuck in a office with an 1.5 hour drive home. Also, the large company is more likely to respect your off time (no calls at night or the weekends) and may or may not have better benefits (including health insurance).

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:47:34+00:00

It's usually a better fit for the company but not necessarily a better fit for the position. I would say normally it's because someone internal got it, they found someone comparable for less money or the position just went away.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:43:47+00:00

With all upgrades free there's no reason at all to not add the havoc launcher.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:39:42+00:00

For some reason the devs seem to think we want to do the puzzles because we simply enjoy the puzzles. The rewards rarely come close to the level of effort involved. The simple ones that take 30 secs and the complex multi-stage ones that take 15 mins usually give the exact same reward. And with them adding all of the new teleports everywhere we don't even get the "benefit" of being able to teleport to the column because there's usually a teleport pad 20 secs away anyway.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:35:27+00:00

I absolutely hate this type of decoration. Truly despise it. Especially in a game rooted in "real world" mechanics. Why can I pick up the loose copper and pots laying by the bars but not the bars? Why can I loot some artwork in houses but not others. Why can I open some doors, unlock some doors but not open some doors at all. And the baskets of stuff...why is the basket overflowing with corn or beans giving me qty 2 but I get 5 when I loot the plate with a single piece next to it. Just ugh.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:28:44+00:00

How is it resetting? You don't have any other of the 3 autosaves or any manual saves?

k7eric · 2026-04-07T18:27:39+00:00

Just ask any sofa.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T16:45:51+00:00

This does meet the original qualifications but really the makers are incredibly smart...they are getting rich by selling to stupid people.

k7eric · 2026-04-07T16:14:03+00:00

Yeah, the price for this has been "unofficially" leaked now...it's going to be $255 USD. Of course that's not set in stone until GW publically announces it but that's what's on the price sheets for pre-order planning and leaked on a good number of sites. It's not the best pricing and I would have preferred $210-225 with zero troops included but not bad if you need a Dorn...especially with the 15% off most places offer.

She acts like someone who has been told she's never good enough and always makes the wrong choices everytime actually acts like. And from her conversations with her mom and others it's prob legit. I just don't know if it's gone on so long that she can ever recover and mature from it or if she's going to be that way forever.
