"Listen Rafael, I don't do deals with Devils. But... if you put the Mass Effect party select screen in here on a Hotkey... I'll be your bitch for life."

However, in cities such as Miami, median list prices are still 50% higher than before the pandemic,”

This is still pretty much the case in Tampa too, property values are so inflated from 2021 and 2022 that a 5% drop really just shows the market leveling off.

But the home insurance market is a sword of Damocles hanging over the state, and Desantis is too busy campaigning against universally popular ballot measures to do anything about it (and has found other culture war bullshit to distract himself from it for years now).

BG3 was in development for 6 years, had a huge budget, and a development studio with experience making RPGs.

You can't expect a small, indie studio to match that when they've only had... Jesus 9 YEARS?!?!

Not unreasonable, but getting out of bed and going to the most dangerous part of our planet don't really equate, you know? And when your own engineers are telling you you've made something unsafe, but you just keep going?? Well...

No, any business major could tell you they release the game, then lay everyone off and sell the IP for parts!

My genx Brother in Law loves to bring up how he had to pay for college working a pressure washing and catering job. So that's two part-time jobs. 🙄 Of course the idea of student loan forgiveness is outrageous to him.

Yeah - I don't want to be too dismissive. I've read interviews with him, and despite his success, he hasn't measurably changed his lifestyle or fallen into the traps a big influx of money can cause. It honestly reminds me of No Man's Sky (minus the redempetion arc) where enough money was made from the base product that it funds ongoing development for the forseeable future.

I mean this is great, props... But didn't he already make his nut with this game?? I mean I can play it on my fucking Tesla, I assume he got paid.

Fingers crossed for a party swap UI.

As a reasonably clever but not exceptionally bright dude myself, I'd say: start with the donut.

It's a classic blender tutorial that has been kept up to date with Blender's latest release, and will help you become familiar with most of Blender's major features.

After finishing that last month I've been making lightsabers, mountains, cities and bridges. Happy Blending!

Agreed! Using it myself.

According to that news article where it got lost for 2.5 hours, the CEO said he wasn't going to try again until summer '23. So I'm reasonably certain the sub's two attempts at diving resulted in one temporary and one permanent loss. The reporter who went on that successful dive and didn't die must feel like he dodged a bullet.

But also, isn't the reason these WoW Tokens are low is because people are trading their in-game gold for it instead of actually paying $90 cash??

And a personal order to get Autocannon kills.

Locked and loaded, get those bots exploded.

Engineering infrastructure? Like foundations and wells? Sounds like you're number three my brother.

And if the wolves come knocking at your community's door, maybe number one.

Alfira is such a big one. I know it's an easy choice because of her Weeping Dawn scene early on, but this girl has "Get in the Party" written all over her. Tragic backstory! Thirst for Adventure! She's a Bard; I need a Bard!

I'm only to Moonrise Towers so far; there may be more I've yet to encounter. Wulbren was a big letdown, I've been looking for him since I accidentally flung his friend off a windmill. I was hoping to find a fun gnome inventor, instead, he's just kind of a prick who doesn't even care I helped all his friends in the Underdark!

I mean that's great, though I can't help but feel Eagle 1 deserves better. She's always there when I need her... while Pelican 1... well, let's just say he's let me down plenty.

It's not a lifestyle declaration, it's a car. I know people online make it sound like everyone is frothing at Tesla drivers, but ultimately: you bought a thing to get you around town.

Slap an Anti-Elon Tesla Club bumper sticker on it if you want. Do what I've been doing since Elon called that one guy a pedophile: remind people who comment that you're not responsible for a billionaire's antics. You just wanted an electric car.

The timing on these comments reads to me like: "I sure am sad EA made us dilute Dragon Age into a third-person action game and chase trends, now that BG3 proved CRPGs can still sell".

Though TBF, the genre went on life support for a reason. It will be interesting to see if we get more CRPG mainstream hits going forward.

The horse testicle physics are the heart of the game, and we should be boycotting any game that doesn't have them!
