    Just donated an extra $500 to the Harris campaign.

    I know it's a drop in the bucket compared to the $75 mil Musk is pumping into Trumps campaign but given I'm nowhere near a swing state I don't know if there's much else I can do to combat this.

    As long as the base game justifies the price I don't mind as much. I thi the practice is worse when you don't get a full story and it feels like "pay 40 dollars to see the end!"

    I usually catch these on sale anyway. I'm the worst type of customer for Owlcat for sure.

    IIRC from Michael Lewis' book Obama did this because W Bush did it for him and he appreciated it greatly.

    Just pointing this out to show how really fucked it is to ignore that playbook

    I've been wanting to check out Rogue Trader now that that's out. I loved Kingmaker and Wotr from Owlcat (with the caveat that I always disable the crusade and kingmaking modes...)

    I think it's because under the hood it uses # file names as temp files incase word crashes.

    Definitely an edge case that should have come up. This is why you don't fire QA departments and expect devs to test everything.

    Well the prequels were supposed to be more of a condemnation of the original Jedi order. The Jedi were supposed to be these hypocritical religious zealots and Anakin was supposed to be drawn to the darkside because of that hypocrisy. It's why he was "too old" to train because they wanted tiny minds to indoctrinate.

    All of this culminates into that penultimate line by Obi-Wan. It's illustrating that hypocrisy.

    However Lucas has the directing chops and subtlety of cocaine bear and this all went flat. You see this more watching deleted scenes and reading some of the side content.

    Me personally I'd rather have the loading screen. It's being honest about what's happening rather than trying to hide it.

    I don't find constantly moving through tight corridors immersive at all.

    Disney is planning on retconing the original lion king so they can make new movies unhampered by existing lore and tell the stories they want to tell.
