I thought it did a good job at capturing the Star Wars feel, but yeah it feels like every open world game. Lots of fetch quests and running around in a massive world where every encounter/quest/battle feels the same as the last.

It may just be me, but most open world games suffer from trying to be too large. Although I think BOTW and TOTK are some of the weakest Zelda games, so maybe my opinions on open world games aren’t popular.

I’m not even sure the regulators exist at all anymore.

I’ve got to wonder how old you are if you’re going after the affordable care act like that. It was a bill that barely passed as is, even though they had to give a ton of consessions to Republicans to make it pass and it still did a lot for the average american.

I don’t think even Obama was happy with how it turned out, but something was better than nothing. In comparison you’ve had the Republicans continously erode that progress without having a single plan on how to fix it.

Just cause it’s something religious doesn’t mean it is ungovernable. There are a lot of things that religious institutions can’t do because of the law, this seems like an arbitrary line to draw.

Is that his BDSM name?

I can only answer two of your questions:

• How to know if a steam game is “deck verified”? There is a “Steamdeck compatability” box for every game on steam that will give on one of four statuses telling you supported/partially supported/not supported/unknown
  • That being said, steam is a bit conservative about “supported” games. ProtonDB is a more complete list of compatible games and gives guidance on how to play games steam considers “unsupported”.
• Can you use steam input for non-steam games? Games must be added/launched through steam for the steam input settings to work, so in most cases you should be able to set it up by adding the “non-steam” game to steam.

Yeah, this doesn’t seem like a franchise that aligns with his directing style.

That’s exactly how H1-Bs are setup in the US, but they just game the system.

A lot of tactics I’ve seen/heard are:

• Making fake job postings to show high demand
• Bad job descriptions or unrealistic job descriptions to show low supply
• Really fudging salary numbers.

That’s possible, given the number of titans and the character design (plus the haze border) it evoked flash back to me. Additionally, the “I have” slip seemed to imply that theyve already made the same promise in the past.

However, I think either interpretation works.

From the one episode I saw - yes.

Im personally very wary of getting invested in it cause I’m afraid it will just keep upping the ante without answering anything, but my friends who have watched it said that it does seem to have a direction and does actual address things.

You don’t really need to know the characters or story. The dog-demon thing is asking the girl if she’ll be his friend in their next lives, she says she will and accidentally says she’s already kept that promise. The next scene shown is an implied flashback to previous lives where they made the same promise indicating that both past/present/future they’ll still find each other and be friends.

I mean, that is one way to make rupees.

The person above you is incorrect, the highest positions are nominated by the president and confirmed by the senate. However, the Fed does work somewhat independently of the government and does work directly with banks.

This is all done to ensure that the Fed is somewhat apolitical and only focused on its goals of “maximizing employment, stabilizing prices, and moderating long-term interest rates”

This independence is part of why Trump hates the Fed, because they won’t give into his demands (as they shouldn’t cause Trump is blowing up the economy).

I agree with you, if equipment is just cosmetic, then at the end of the day why even bother with equipment at all? Just have cosmetics without stats and leave it at that.

I think fallout does a good job of this with having hazmat suits that help with rad, or “cool” attire that helps with bartering. The idea is that the design should complement the stats.

For context John Stewart left the show back in 2015 (or 10 years ago) and only recently started hosting again.

I appreciate you adding your review!

Seems like you and I had similar opinions. I don’t have the dlc, but ended up reading up on it. It seems like they were good additions to the game, but I didn’t feel strongly enough to go back and get them.

If you liked the fishing theme with some plot, Dave the Diver has some parallels. I think the gameplay loop is a bit better, but it goes more for goofy/zany rather than Lovecraftian.

I didn’t even know it had a mobile release (it’s slow paced enough I could see that working okay)!

I was actually able to finish it over the weekend and overall I think I’d give it a 6-7/10:

• Gameplay: Solid. The mechanics are fun, but don’t really evolve beyond the first couple hours of gameplay
• Graphics: Great. The open sea is both inviting and omnionous, while the characters and fish all have a nice flair to them
• Story: Okay. The story being revealed in messages and encounters is fun, but the stakes never really seem to change, and I think if the world got pulled more into your descent it would make it more impactful.
