Having played both games, I gotta say while DRG does have hordes, they're not on the same level as HD2. HD2 is the first game in a while that truly has made me feel overwhelmed by the amount of enemies thrown at me and I love it. In HD2 I even find myself doing stealth a lot to sneak past patrols.

Overall though I don't think it's worth it trying to compare DRG to HD2. They might look similar in some aspects. But they are vastly different in gameplay, experience, and mechanics. It's apples to tomatoes, sure they're both technically red fruits, but that's where the similarity ends.

I recently got hit with the seasonal flu like a month ago that was going around and stubbornly didn't go to a doctor. Ended up with a fever of ~105 on average and peaked at like 106 while still having chills as well.

There was a period of 3 days where it was the worst and I have no idea what happened during that time except scant bits of random memories of drinking water and passing out on the couch covered in blankets. The fever dreams you mentioned is definitely on point to what I experienced as well. Was never sure if I was really awake or dreaming with my eyes closed. Which like... I'm not sure how to phrase that in a way that makes sense or differentiate from regular dreaming cause reading it right now just sounds dumb

Time made no sense during that whole period and still doesn't. It's like my body, even two weeks later, still hasn't registered that I existed for those days. Very surreal in a bad way, do not recommend

Not the guy you replied too, and my memory is also fuzzy, but I always love how crazy and analog nes hardware was. Im like 70% sure that later in the nes lifespan they made it to where cartridges had more rom and could shuffle the data banks/tables around and that the nes could only process something like 32kb at a time I think? So they would just swap around the data sets depending on when they where needed.

Almost like one of those choose your own adventure books... Im probably horribly wrong in that summary and analogy though. It's been years since I last got a refresher on nes tricks lol

Honestly Buchanan wasn't a great president, but I don't think it really would have mattered what actions Buchanan could have taken.

By the time he got into office civil war had all but been guaranteed as decades of kicking the can on the issue of slavery, combined with increasing resentment in the divide of the north and south culturally. Had created a powder keg that arguably was lit back during the start of bleeding Kansas years before he even became president.

And with how stubborn the south was on not letting go of slavery, well there really was no diplomatic solution by then. Hence kicking of the can all those years prior. Maybe he could have enacted decisions that delayed the war, but it would have only been a delay.

The only way civil war could have ever been prevented is if the founding fathers had told southerns to pound sand and outlaw slavery back during the signing of the constitution. That or maybe if the cotton gin had been invented a decade later

Which is why they fail their religion checks when questioned. They are however good at passing deception checks

Those bards sure are a contemptuous bunch

Dude... You're acting like you're a wrench short of a full toolbox. Obviously meant he doesn't care that he personally was circumcised. But he does care enough that he won't do it to his kids.

I.E. He's accepted the fact that what happened was in the past and he can't change it, so no use crying about it especially when it has not effected the use of his member in any negative way. But he can change what happens in the future for his kids by not doing that to them and letting them have a choice when they're older.

If the guy was actually ambivalent he would just go along with continuing to allow his own kids to be circumcised and/or have no opinion of the procedure. Or he would dislike the procedure but allow it to happen anyways because of tradition or something.

Stop being obtuse and ignorant. Though having said that I now feel like you'll come at me with the mathematical definition of obtuse to try and use petty semantics to make yourself feel better

If you're gonna start shit at least defend your ideas or give a glimpse into your thought process before you punk out like a bitch after getting called out lol

Buddy you're trying to nitpick something that no one cares about that still has the same result. At the end of the day the people will still be eating the cracker in a business zoned church.

Whatever beliefs or arbitrary labels are held behind the gesture do not matter at all to what is being talked about

Getting drunk at epcot before the fireworks show while getting to eat good food is magical for adult me. I love the food and wine festival. And even as an adult the Star Wars area is still dope

Parts of 2018 and Ragnarok and the ending of both actually had me tear up a bit, not many games accomplish that. It was very heartfelt and emotional I enjoyed seeing a proper character arc for Kratos and his kid and watching them develop.

I also really liked the themes of redemption and trying to be better not just for yourself, but for the people around you, I liked that Kratos has to reflect on his actions and actually come to terms with how he was for all intents and purposes, a monster.

I liked that even enemies where made more complex and given good character arcs. 2018 and Ragnarok are so well done and I love them. The old GoW trilogy was also fun and had good writing in it's own merit and direction, but the new games are something else entirely in a good way and I vastly prefer the character and relationship focused writing in the newer games.
