y'all are obsessed with these conservative talk show hosts. Your constant posting of shapiro, crowder and whoever else is the reason why they're so popular.

The combat is fairly challenging - it’s easy for one or two bad moves (or bad luck) to kill your whole party in a battle. It also takes a bit to learn the combat system if you haven’t played D&D.

I've always been interested in D&D, but no never played it.

You end up with 4 different characters with different strengths and weaknesses and each with a bunch of different abilities that have different rules for when and how often you can use them.

I have played quite a few games with the party system, so I have so previous knowledge on the strengths and weaknesses of party members, which may help. Thanks for the info!

It is property....for residents....

I haven't played any Baldurs gate before, but the hype has definitely made me look into it.

Definitely seems like a game I'd like, a fantasy RPG, I haven't always loved turned based combat, so that's one of my hold ups. What do y'all think of the combat system?

Who's going to make apartment buildings? Isn't that the best solution towards making more housing, to have compact apartment structures? How do you think those get built?

Rent is inherently predatory

No it's not. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's inherently predatory.

I have to move to a city for 6 months, should I have to buy a house and sell it during that time? I need to rent, it gives me the flexibility without having to shell out capital or get in debt to live.

As with everything, it can be bad, especially when the government restricts building of houses so much, but my buddy buying a house, fixing it up and renting it out isn't malicious.

What's your alternative to renting? Government owns all houses and gives them out for people to live in for free?

Rents are out of control, especially in big cities, but come on. Rent control, by all measures and by all historical policies, are terrible.

if Biden is the not-Trump option then you better vote for his senior citizen ass.

I think part of the reason why people feel they don't have a choice is because the DNC seems to have just chosen biden instead of letting any other democratic candidate have a chance at the nominee.

Conspiracy theorists and hate are more or less the norm in conservative circles, so far as I can tell.

I don't think they're conservative. I think republicans have given up on being conservative, and just now fight culture war and spend as much if not more than the dems.

I've been trying to be diligent about not conflating republicans and conservatives anymore, they haven't been conservative in awhile. Republicans have been overwhelmingly blindly following Trump, conservatives haven't.

As a conservative, this is mind boggling to me. In my head I think it's just a far right crazy conspiracy theory, but between this and the huge amount of support trump gets, I'm just baffled. I'm on the west coast, and none of my friends or family still support Trump or are election deniers.

Maybe the mid west republicans are just 100% trumpers? It's wild.

They say that prisoners have access to tap water, but the prisoners say that tap water is crap.

This could all be solved by, ya know, having potable tap water by fixing some of our shit infrastructure.

Our treatment of prisoners is a disgrace.

Wasn't there a huge civil suit against J&J that they avoided paying?

Just another big pharma company that is getting charged fines, but that's just their cost of doing business. These suits against J&J, Pfizer & more should put the company permanently out of business.
