"You know what, I'll admit I don't know jack about what is in the TPP."
"But to think it was a "horrific agreement" means you think either the US negotiators were incompetent or traitors."
Admitting you know nothing about it, yet have strong talking points for it means you're responding emotionally, not rationally.
"He was articulate, intelligent, and charming."
Which automatically means he is good right?
I could go on, but it's clear your emotional response wont make the discussion any more valuable to continue. eg. Automatically assuming knowledge, political affiliation or who a person listens to or reads (you were wrong on all points by the way).
Always be aware of you're own emotional reactions, as in the end they'll only weaken your argument. |

TPP was a trojan horse on sovereign government. It was a horrific agreement where any positives were nullified overwhelmingly by its negatives.
My point is Obama isn't the second coming people thought he was and Trump is far from the Hitler many people claim him to be. |

So, is this "impeachment" following the same timeline as those nukes I am to be expecting??
Keep crying it's amusing.
Always thought that was amusing. As if there was a big red button for nukes on the presidents table and these people imagining he'd stroll right in and press it nonchalantly.
Many complain about Trump but yet ignore some of the worst from Obama eg. endorsing the TPP which Trump withdrew from. Unfortunately the hive mind takes over and ends up causing some people to ignore truth.

I know it's an emotional story, but you're starting to sound like the Jugend of old.
"The internet should be managed (come on NSA, PRISM etc)"
"if you become too toxic, you're banned"
"I just think that with AI getting better and better, and with teh NSA's existant extensive spying apparatus, it's not impossible to monitor someone from going online."
" if it was required to log in with your secure credentials to identify you then overnight so much shit would be dealt with"
"The troll movement is responsible for Trump"
"and possibly WW3"
You've slicked yourself this time. Mop up. Or something like that. |

While I thought Unreal was amazing, it still felt like a game, albeit an engrossing one. Half-Life though - with the incredible cohesiveness of the narrative experienced through the gripping gameplay felt like an adventure. A wonderful experience. I couldn't really tell you anything about Unreal other than it was amazing-looking (at the time obviously) and tons of fun. But I can remember almost every detail of Black Mesa, the genius encounters, and Xen to this day.
Was exactly the opposite for me personally, not to diminish the genius of hl. hl was more a movie like experience, whereas unreal was more of a world.
Personal taste though. Linear vs open seem to be where those trajectories went. |

Stop trying to say everyone else has a reading comprehension problem, you are the issue here. No one truly cares what you think of this crisis situation, they're just pointing out that you're a hypocrite for not seeing what is immediately obvious to them. You should really ask yourself how you keep getting into these embarrassing scenarios but I shouldn't expect introspection from someone who creates this sort of self-drama on a whim.
We need more people like kx willing to call out insanity without folding. |

Was hoping for RDR redux as the trend for remastering games seems to be growing. Last of Us remastered, Metro Redux, the upcoming Skyrim Special Edition etc. Guess everyone is out to make a quick buck on work already done.

I really don't see why EA/Disney would be interested in SC/CIG at all. There is nothing -so far- they (or DICE for that matter) couldn't do better in a fraction of the time at less risk and money. Seriously.
Technology. But in saying that, that's why I added "You're right in the practical sense though. Disney is cold hard cash..." It's a personal fantasy, but in practicality it would never happen. |

Or why would EA/Disney undertake the massive effort of consolidating what has been worked on in L.A., Austin, Manchester and Frankfurt? There are so many, many reasons why *especially* places like EA or Disney would never ever do this... we could sit here all day and fill several novels with reasons.
Agree with almost all your points, but have reservations for the above. What Palmer did with Oculus would seem to be a viable option for CIG if they ran out of cash. A lot of hard work is already paid for which is a springboard for future investors. With the SW franchise it would be added incentive to put in a few extra bucks as they could cut the convoluted stretch goals, focusing on one or two planets with loads of SW based content. A next gen Dark Forces maybe?
You're right in the practical sense though. Disney is cold hard cash in the easiest way possible. |

Mass Effect 1 kind of had procedural worlds that quickly angered players; especially the M35 Mako (what a nightmare of a vehicle!). BioWare learned from that mistake and made planet missions in ME2 and ME3 much more focused.
Am I wrong in this conclusion? If I am please let me know.
Hm. Remembering Mass Effect the opposite to the audience if what you say is true. I actually liked the Mako missions as they gave the impression of an expansive universe, even if it were all smoke and mirrors. It was enough to feel like it was bigger 'world' than it actually was. As opposed to the probing missions which felt like a total gimmick in the sequels.
In GTA you can't access every building or shop but nobody cares. The fact that all that content is there gives an expansiveness. If there are missions/objectives people don't bother with the filler, but the filler is still important for immersion.
I don't know. I wish them the best, as much of a cluster of a development it is. |

Impressive tech.
Rabbit trail: If they get their game systems solid but eventually run out of money, this would be a very easy pitch to take to Disney and retrofit to do something in the Star Wars universe. Since everything they've done so far is already paid for I'm sure Disney would unload buckets of cash to make that happen, especially since the franchise is currently making it's own comeback.
While not so cool on the side of the initial investor, it would be similar to how Lucky sold Oculus, even though it raised loads of cash via crowdfunding. A dick move, but what major business move isn't?
On a side note, it's crazy to think Disney paid 4 billion for Lucasfilm while someone else Notched up 2.5 billion for Minecraft alone. Score! |

Hmm. It seems a bit late to do a 3d update of t2 now that it's pretty unanimous that people don't give a crap about movies being in 3d.
Oh, DX:HR. I never finished that. Every time I try to play it it just makes me want to play the original again instead. I know, nostalgia glasses and everything...

"I know now why you cry."
As much as I hate 3d movies I loved going back to the cinema to catch Jurassic Park on it's milk job re-release. All those old farts bringing their children in to see a 20 year old movie that probably didn't surprise the kids at all. |

Eh.. in fairness, this last patch revitalizes the game. The only problem I've ever had with it is performance, and that is now moot.
Performance yes but also the widespread cheaters/hax.
What about the boring gameplay? |
