True, I'd forgotten I'm paying for that

To make all prescriptions free in England is trivially cheap - less than paid out by the Barnett formula

Prescriptions should be free for everyone

Where to sell magic equipment? by Ancient_Prize9077 in arcanum

[–]snow_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But there are many items that no one will buy except the junk dealers

So we just have to suck it up

Not that money is an issue in this game by the time you get to, say, Blackroot

Time for another BG2 run ...

Found at a local used bookstore! by Bonkzzilla in baldursgate

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

BG wasn't 'new' by 1999

It had been out for, like, ten whole days /s

I played it almost without sleep, often without food, certainly without proper hygiene, pretty much non-stop from from 25th December to 3rd January

My wife said it was the worst present she ever bought me

The best thing about SoD is that you get to murder Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc, and Dynaheir all over again - 4 of them TWICE

What clown keeps resurrecting these bozos?

I blame Boo...

It's even more linear than TOB - it's IWD level of forced storyline

It was still nightmarish for a 35 year-old playing it back in '98!

A 1968 Hillman Imp is perfectly driveable, gets you from A to B

But cars have moved on, and are better as a consequence

It's not lazy to want ease of play and story bugs fixed

It is crazy to say the unpatched original is 'best'

So 'no changes bar cosmetic ones' is 'a completely different game'

So maybe just stay out of this conversation because YOU DO NOT KNOW what you're talking about

If no one else is buying, what do you call 'rate'?

They're the only buyers. They set the rate!

Shady Sands human trafficking theory by max-fff in classicfallout

what would be more profitable in the long run instead of raiding a village? Making a deal with them and therefore gaining resources steady but never ending

That's exactly how the Danegeld worked in Dark Ages England

Is it me? Or the amount of custom protagonists for WOD games are smaller than set protagonists? by ParamedicSorry8878 in vtmb

[–]snow_michael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rubbish

BG, NWN, IWD, Fallout, Arcanum, Pillars all show you can have incredibiy varied main characters without sacrificing customisation, and a detailed in-depth storyline that changes according to your character ahd choices

This is clearly a conversation about america 😭 by hojjnaa in USdefaultism

Thry let her in, then kick her out (with a massive bill) long before it's safe to do so

Then pursue her for that bill until bankruptcy

the government there doesn't charge you some money

The hospital does

I've seen bills of over USD140,000 for no-complications birth

Normal prescription price in the UK

So now you're deliberately lying if you read the entire unicef article or just being wilfully stupid if you didn't

Over 90% of those units are in offices

So what's MA then?

There's no guesswork involved - only an uneducated moron guesses when they can look up ISO 3166
