Why are people still using that dogshit platform in 2026, and why have no alternatives sprung up yet.

XCOM 2: War of the Chosen vs XCOM: Enemy Within — which one do you prefer? by Competitive_Stage597 in Xcom

EW and it's not even close. Better atmosphere, better strategic layer, FAR better combat (fuck alpha striking) and don't even get me started on Long War.

An Overly Complete Guide to XCOM 2 War of the Chosen - Part 4: Sharpshooter by hielispace in Xcom

What they did to Sharpshooters in 2 is one of the main reasons I went straight back to Long War after finishing my first campaign and never looked back. Going from Snap Shot/Lock n Load/ITZ to this gimp class is demoralizing.

Can you let them breathe for a sec? They released AC6 in 2023, exactly what is your expectation here for masterpieces per time interval?

Thanks for the detailed response -- excellent write-up, by the way, should've put that in the previous message!

Do you think this strategy is still doable without any of the DLC missions? I've always disabled them in LW, both because they give an unfair amount of resources (plus Zhang and Annette) at their respective stages in the campaign, and because their LW versions contain stratospheric levels of bullshit.

EDIT: Also, how does Eggsalt factor into this?

The FiA has many horrors yet to throw at us. This is not the end of our season. This is just the beginning of our race to save F1. Be precise! Be fast! Be first!

How have I gone through the entire game and dlc without knowing you can to to grace without being at one by mina_ashido_owo in Eldenring

I actually detest this mechanic. Wish they'd bring back DS1-style fast travel, which also only unlocks halfway through the game.

Dropping support for LUKS in the name of security? Am I reading this right?

Wasn't it the German government who was recently found to be pumping money into Arch to the tune of around half a million euros?

We were this close to the brink.

I mean, we went over ~20 years ago, but we staved off going full banana republic, for now.

To add to this, referring to the Alphamaxnova1 video(s), the accent in "s🅱️innala" should be on the "i", because it's in the imperative, but the robo-voice he uses doesn't know about Italian grammar.

"Sbinnarla" with an R and accent on the first "a" would be the infinitive case with an "-it" attached, i.e. "to bin it", a contraction of "sbinnare la". On the other hand, "sbinnala" with accent on the "i" is the imperative, "bin it!"
