So what you are saying, is basing current morality and worldview on 1400 year old scriptures is not wise?

The official Lord of the Rings special effects studio is making a cozy hobbit game
Interesting. Since Unity acquired Weta we haven’t seen any Unity game stuff using that technology.

Making Magic: The Challenges of Making Universes Beyond
It would be way easier to just not make UB crap. It also would help with not deluding an existing IP and prevent player fatigue. This is just corporate PR speak to try to calm invested player concerns, but ultimately as long as profits go up, they keep pushing with this bullshit until Magic The Gathering is dead.

Not OP, but I don’t think they mean that the Tea Party was part of class solidarity, but more that it was a movement that was unorchestrated by the powers that be and could, if left unanswered, lead to threatening the status quo, aka super wealthy.

John Grisham, George R.R. Martin and more authors sue OpenAI for copyright infringement
Reply in thread
I understand that authors and artists in a more general sense are very, very concerned. The problem is that this has nothing to do with AI. If I were to generate a story based on their work, I simply cannot distribute it without legal repurcusions. Doesn’t matter if I used AI or not. The problem lies, once again, at the publishers. They can churn out copy after copy using AI and abuse the artist in that regard. Something similar is happening with DC Fables and it’s creator(who in a gigachad move just threw the entire IP into the public domain).So what we need is copyright reform. Artists deserve to be paid adequately for their work and should be protected from being ‘impersonated’ by publishers using whatever means, not strictly AI. All these ban AI discussions miss the underlying point completely, being copyright reform. AI just sped up the proces 100 times.

Party of Dutch anti-Islam populist Wilders to win most seats: Exit poll
Reply in thread
Because of social media. If you open youtube in a private browser window your stream is filled with alt right desinformation. Same with tiktok. Somehow social media stockholmed the population into blaming the left while right parties have been fucking up the Netherlands the last 20 year with their neo-liberal skullfuckery.

How do I beat Lorithia in XC1 DE?
Turn the game difficulty down. Grind another 10 levels or so. The last bosses are way more difficult and this boss fight acts like a gatekeeper.

Monster Hunter World/Rise. After mastering monsters it becomes a grind for parts.

Getting ready to start Xenoblade 2. Any tips I should know before hand?
First of all, just enjoy the fantastic ride. There are a million different systems and mechanics, which eventually might click. Another poster already linked a great combat video. After a few hours in that’s a great suggestion but until then make sure to give your party deserts. The thing that took me long to grasp was the fact that going back to prior zones is a must, even if it feels that the story drives you further.

Mono Colored Commander Suggestions
[[Yeva, Nature’s Herald]] is a fantastic mono green commander that plays like a blue deck. Flash on all your green creatures is very strong. Keep mana open to protect your board and interact and just before your turn flash in your haymakers.

Too bad about the UB crap. I love the flavor of Ixalan, I love Jurassic Park, but this UB shit just sucks.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's open world is inspired by The Witcher 3 and Horizon

The first thing I do with any open world game is turn of all map/quest/achievement markers except for maybe the active selected quest. It makes gaming so much more organic. Aso when you do a replay you can still find fresh quests on your second/third plays.

You know that postponing elections during a war is : a, fucking logical, because how to fuck are you going to get a representative vote if half of the country has fled or is on the frontline and b, their constitution says there can’t be elections during martial law. source Every fucking pro Russian troll arguments in this thread need to be ousted here before this place gets to be a Russian troll pit as well.

Blocking opposition parties is not pretty. Not all opposition parties were blocked tough, only the ones with strong ties to Russia. source

The first one that dies in a war is the truth. Every party tries to steer the narrative. It’s hard to keep a neutral stance. Fact is that Russia invaded a sovereign country under the false pretenses of ‘denazification’ and ‘military operation’. No Ukraine is not a shining beacon of democracy. Yes they were open for nato membership, yes US politics was heavily involved, and no their special treaty with Russia to not do so does not fucking matter because Russia already invaded Ukraine in 2014 making that treaty void. If Russia wants peace, all they need to do is leave Ukraine, super simple. We all know that won’t happen because Putin’s small dick ego can’t handle that.

However it’s not rhetoric. It’s cold hard history. Allowing a fascist dictator to invade a sovereign country led to WW2.
