I actually really like the story of Dune, but I kind of have to agree that the writing leaves a lot to be desired. The fact that Herbert constantly switches perspectives with no indication in the middle of chapters, or sometimes even in the middle of paragraphs, drives me up the wall. I almost couldn't finish them because of that.

That's it, that's the whole post. I don't care if I would do more damage by switching to a dagger, I want to see two feet of wood and steel sticking out of my opponents chest.

Just read the phrase "in which" so many times it doesn't even sound like English anymore.

I'm a simple man. I see Animorphs, I up vote.

Stealth has always been optional in Assassin's Creed. The modern games have a lot of problems (the series really hasn't been good since Black Flag) but that one in particular isn't new. Trying to be stealthy makes every mission take twice as long, but imo it also makes them more fun.

I mean...duh? Basically the entire point of having different laws in different states is that people can choose what laws they want to live under. No one should be surprised that young people are considering that when choosing colleges.

The art of the insult has truly declined over the centuries.

Someone else mentioned VR games, if you can afford the gear I second that recommendation. Some games can be quite the workout, and it doesn't feel like I'm convincing myself to exercise because I'm just playing video games.

Basically title. I decided to start a new honor mode run after the update the other day (haven't played in a few months) and getting a bug in which character's face animations don't work during dialog. Lips don't move, expressions don't change. A little googling didn't turn up any similar reported bugs except for a couple dating back to the early access days. Has anyone else been seeing this since the update, or is it just me?

I wouldn't say it's great even there. If you want people to pay 20% more for their food so your workers can get paid, just list that on the menu. Raise all food prices 20% and pay the wait staff a decent wage. Customers pay the same in the end and your staff isn't dependent on customer generosity to make a living.

I think jump distance benefits from odd strength to too, though I'm not 100% sure on that.

Tough call, but I'm going to go with Wayne from Brandon Sanderson's Wax and Wayne trilogy.

Learning that they believe in ghosts, flat Earth, or anti-vaxx conspiracies.
