Oh boy is that a loaded question.

As someone who has played every game in the series, the trend has been to make them less like RPGs and more like action games. Gameplay wise, this was far and away the best action-y one and had a decent enough story. Anything compared to 15 would have looked like a masterpiece, lol.

I vastly prefer the more traditional RPGs overall though. 16 was a pleasant surprise since I came in with a bit of a bias against the shift towards action games, and really only gave it a shot because the director has earned a lot of credit with his handling of 14 (the MMO)

Having met people: really? Most people can’t distinguish fact from fiction.

Which do you think is easier to quit outright? Heroin, thc, nicotine, or alcohol?

The answer is Metallica and anyone who claims otherwise is failing to see the forest for the trees. A lot of the bands people are listing in this thread are virtually unheard of outside of metal fans, and while I’m sure most here would agree they are better or that you would be more excited to see them than something more mainstream - Everyone knows Metallica.

What’s the problem? I agree it’s stupid but they’re also very easy to ignore. Doesn’t seem like a good use of anyone’s resources to police these

That ‘divisiveness’ got us an actually electable candidate so fuck off with this revisionist bullshit. Biden was a dead end that was not worth going all-in for, especially faced with the threat of a second Trump term.

recent population studies have found that babies whose fathers drank are at a higher risk for various poor health outcomes

So they found a correlation, but the causal link implied by the headline and article sounds like a hell of a stretch.

I doubt it brought in 46m worth of revenue to the state though.

You’re always going to be judged. If you base your own happiness on the collective opinion of society about you, you will never be happy. You can’t control how other people feel, so you need to focus your mental energy on controlling your own feelings.

Does Hashimoto’s disease actually cause obesity? Feels like a lot of people blame thyroid diseases for issues that are actually mostly under their control.

In the grand scheme of things, weight is a physics problem. I seriously doubt that outside of extreme cases that someone would be obese solely from hyperthyroidism.
