Oof I’ll be on the lookout for that, thanks for the explanation without too much spoiler. I really haven’t been fond of combat for the last several final fantasy iterations, but i have some hope that XVI at least delivers on story.

Totally understand, and that makes sense, and i can appreciate the clarification and sentiment. I’m just starting XVI and the story is interesting, though the combat is not what i typically look for in a final fantasy game. I guess we’ll see how it progresses…
I don’t think it’s fair to flatly posit that since the CDC has been wrong at some point in the past, they can’t ever be trusted. While i understand the concept of don’t blindly follow words regardless of who said it, the sheer amount of research and dedication from an organization such as the CDC should count quite a bit more than the folks who have done none.
I don’t have the means to do such research, and as such i will more heavily weigh the words of the applicable research team than i will the words of someone who has no knowledge on the topic.
I think the question really should be not “have they ever been wrong,” but instead, “do i think they’re wrong on purpose.” A lot of research teams are funded by one side of an argument, which is cause for concern. The CDC is most likely not, and it would be fair to say they could be wrong, but likely not on purpose. Therefore i would say in this instance they are the more qualified experts who are also trying their best to be objective, and therefore, they likely have the more reasonable statement on this topic.
I appreciate that point of view, and I’ll probably give it a go eventually. Interesting that it’s more of a reimagining. To be fair, remake was free on my ps5, but I’ll still wait until they’re all available. I might try it when the final two are on sale
This is a really weird and unnecessarily aggressive take. I think that the other person is saying is that the communication about the games has been pretty poor, and it really isn’t clear what the right move is. Other games make a lot more sense in both continuity and playing order. I’m not sure why that’s such a difficult concept to grasp.
For example , FF7 remake isn’t actually a remake. It’s only the first act of ff7. Rebirth is somehow act 2? I don’t understand why. Some people seem to think rebirth is DLC instead of part 2 and a standalone game at that.
I’m personally an og ff7 purist, and I’m rather annoyed that they split this up into multiple games. I’ll just wait until all 3 are released and then… admittedly probably not play them unless they go on sale
My sincerest apologies, female actor Margot Robbie.
I’m pretty sure it was Margot Robbie, and that scarjo wasn’t in it at all
i think it could be a reference to saying no to plastic clothes hangers, since clothes hangers are an enormous source of plastic waste.
Edit: yes i understand the anti dangerous abortion symbolism, but here are some sources to explain the environmental impacts that are starting to gain some press.

I don’t think it’s fair to assume, at best, an accident is negligence. There are numerous things that can lead to an accident that wouldn’t be negligence, such as normal wear and tear causing problems with something such as brakes or steering (perhaps not caught during routine maintenance as they weren’t issues at the time), something falling into the road (weather related, wildlife, erosion), a glitch of some kind (two green lights, not negligence necessarily) , or visibility issues (even cautious and solid drivers can be at risk during poor conditions). These are just some examples, but in the cases nobody involved would be at fault.
I believe the comparison to a gun is woefully inaccurate and invalid. Both are machines with the capacity to cause harm, but the similarities end there.
I can totally understand, and that makes a lot of sense. I think the sheer volume of accidents in the post are what’s so shocking. I’ve only been in a vehicle with an obviously reckless driver two times (so far. And to clarify, two people, once each), and from my perspective, some people really shouldn’t drive. Heck, one of those two times was supposed to be a casual date (she was picking me up, we were in college), and i asked her to drop me off immediately. Big nope.
That’s why i added not high volume times, so what i meant was regarding specifically driving when you aren’t stuck in traffic. I’m suggesting that the act of driving itself isn’t horrific, though yes, sitting in traffic is awful.
Edited for some clarity
I can agree with some of your response to what was said by the other commenter, but my impression is that person was shocked that someone at a young age has been involved in double digit accidents that mostly sound like their fault. Some people really just are incapable of driving, though that shouldn’t diminish that small lapses or true accidents do happen.
I would disagree that driving in general is miserable, though I’m sure this can vary by location. While i would prefer better access to efficient public transit (live in the USA), being able to get in a car and go anywhere is pretty freeing, provided it isn’t during high volume times, especially on a freeway.
I’m not the other commenter, but I’m fairly certain they’re making a play on the title of this post, which just ends with “They.”
I was a much less experienced gamer at the time, so I recall them being significantly difficult, but fun.
Well, when I say unhinged I’m saying that the content was pretty wild, and the freedom you have to do some messed up stuff is fairly open.
Ha! Totally! Fallout 2 is an underrated gem of a game, the amount of content in a single city (new reno) is staggering. It’s funny, difficult, at times nonsensical, and arguably my favorite game in the series. Nothing about it is perfect, but it feels so right.
I don’t want to give too many details in case i spoil it, but the game is really something else. I don’t think any game in the series has been as unhinged since fallout 2. It is 2d isometric and uses an action point system, so be aware of that, but man is it wild. I think new vegas is the closest to really capturing the essence, but there’s a certain tone that is missing from the new games. I also strongly dislike the nonstop shoot on sight gameplay in later entries like they’re copying call of duty.
The first time i had an enemy offscreen one shot one of my party members with a Gauss rifle was a shock. An epic shock.
Ugh misread your comment and went on a fallout 2 rant. Woops. Totally agree with you! The early fallout games were excellent, and i think the only good one since the IP got picked up is new Vegas
There are plenty of insurance companies that are like this. They’re significantly cheaper than the nationally advertised insurance options.
Cocaine’s a helluva drug
I don’t think it’s fair to suggest that a more detailed logo is going to automatically be good in this context. People can complain about lack of detail, and also be disappointed if more detail is poorly executed.
To me, goths are the people who sacked Rome in 410. None of this makes sense to me.
