Due to falling viewership CNN decided to do a right-wing pivot a few months ago. So now rather than being “center-left” in terms of the US overton window they are right wing.

It’s sad that he is basically every child’s idol.

Many people when I was growing up would joke “I just go there for the wings”.

This man actually does.

Yeah it’s just crazy because if you’re into reddit enough to pay for it you’re probably producing value for them in the form of quality posts.

If you’re 1080p gaming you will have little benefit from DLSS. If you’re gaming at 1440p you’ll get a lot of benefit.

Playing a pirated copy at 60 fps on 5800x/3070 near max settings using the DLSS mod scaling 720p up to 1440p in 21:9. Maybe I have bad taste but I’m enjoying it a lot. Similar to Fallout 4 but with much better writing. Le capitalism in space. Takes itself pretty seriously.

So far I’ve been able to

spoiler

agree to blow up a stolen ship for a corrupt official, lie to the pirates on board and pretend to be a pirate, get found out immediately when boarding. Then by luck I convinced them not to kill me with a difficult speech check, I agree to let them keep the ship and in exchange they give me an incriminating letter about the official. I then lie and tell the official that I blew it up and then report them to authorities.


Compared to Fallout 4 which consisted of “Go shoot these guys who are bad because they’re bad guys”, this is a breath of fresh air. The fact that you can talk to many enemies rather than kill on sight is very nice. The dialogue is revamped and speech checks are a series of luck-based dialogue choices that make it feel a lot less like “I think you should just give me everything for nothing in return”

Really this is all I’ve wanted in a Bethesda RPG. Compared to previous releases I’m comfortable saying that this is the most stable at launch so far. I’m a couple hours in and really haven’t seen many bugs beyond animation glitches.

If you like Bethesda RPGs I fail to see how you wouldn’t like this. Though the “$35 extra to play on labor day weekend” was scummy.

Hexbears will like it once the Soviet mod comes out.

The scam is that on paper it looks like good money if you don’t count the car expenses.
