Instead of a thin-blood, you’re an Elder fresh from torpor.

Welp, there goes the exploration of the world factor.

A mainstream fairly well funded sequel to a cult classic owned by a company that has yet to develop anything even close to the same quality as a janky pre-release third-party source game that has switched developers at least once now?

...I'm sure it will be fine, it's not like there's at least two other examples of that exact scenario failing miserably.

Just a reminder; the solution to traffic is almost never more roads.

Yes, absolutely. If it takes me a year to make a high-quality table, then I shouldn't keep getting paid for the table for the rest of my life + 70 years + whatever new extension Disney comes up with.

"If you protest us stealing your home, we're going to steal your home!" said the democratic republic that officially has not recognized that it is steal homes.

When a company actually exists that utilizes your view of DLC, then it might be a valid criticism of the phrasing; but zero day one DLC released for any game has been anything but carving up a complete product into an incomplete main product and several DLCs to increase the price without increasing the price. Oblivion was the first example of this. Horse Armor was already developed.

Yes, given there is no 'empty land,' you are always destroying something if you create a windfarm on land. On the other end of this, offshore windfarms unironically create local ecosystems. If your goal is not just decarbonization, but decarbonization in order to better the health of the planet, which it should be, then offshore would be the best option.

See: Germany tearing down land wind farms in order to mine more coal. Those turbines aren't going to be repurposed, they're going to scrap yards.

Hyperbole works against your goals, and is a direct driver of teen vaping. There are absolutely positive effects with nicotine, to pretend otherwise is simply 'Reefer Madness' for overly panicked sheltered millennials. The primary problem, and thus the messaging, should be that the positives do not outweigh the negatives; and nicotine addiction is incredibly hard to break away from.

An 'evolved' society that resorts to pointless, unfounded, unscientific scare tactics to justify government control isn't an evolved society, it's the 1920s.

That's more secure than most setups, the VPN with killswitch will defeat any and all attacks you're likely to encounter if you don't open files on that same VM.

FDE is for physical attackers, it would have nothing to do with torrenting unless you're really intending on pissing off every single criminal legal authority and not just worried about civil suits from copyright holders.

If you want I can scientifically prove capitalism is the source of the majority of bad things currently happening in capitalist society; but lets be honest you just really don't understand the word capitalism if you're defending it.

I haven’t really messed with melee Astarion but I feel like the game does not encourage the Sebille gameplay.

For this, the low level cap really is what hurts. If you don't mind being slightly underpowered for act I, going Shadow Monk/Assassin will get you Sebille-like gameplay. Shadow Monks get teleportation relatively early on, and their skills complement any class features/feats that increase sneak damage multipliers.

They're still over all outclassed since Larian's changes to the 5e ruleset and features really don't favor stealth for the most part, but you can make something close to a melee sneak build viable especially if you're not playing on tactician.
