And we'll come up with a name that merges climate and technology, let's call it skynet.

You can absolutely win them over but the problem is they go right back. Like someone getting out of rehab and going to right to their dealer they will turn on newsmax or get on Facebook and reprogram themselves.

I don't think this means ES6 is doomed. Did anyone play the Civ space game? It was an offshoot one-off experiment that wasn't really well recieved and they quietly moved on.

My guess is that this game pivoted during development and they ended up with something that didn't really work and shouldn't have shipped. The failure to find something good in this experiment may be isolated to this game.

The fact that they released it in the state they did could be more about their workflow and project pipeline/target milestones they need to hit than it is about their ability to execute.

The failure here is in design, ES6 has a tried and true design to follow.

So does Hakeem Jeffries' BluePac, and that's why leadership gave him a promotion.

They've been so busy building the party to be fully accessible to financial interests that the corruption is what stands out most prominently to a public that can't tell the difference between either party.

Unpopular opinion but I think the game is in it's best state currently. I spent $40 on 2016 and haven't had to pay a dime since and I'm not playing this PVP game for it's PVE so this stuff doesn't matter to me. Blizzard is a husk of its former self and I'm still bitter about HOTS but am actually having a lot of fun playing comp this season.

All the Republican candidates, except Christie, want to stay in Trump's good graces - they know they can't win if he so much as sneezes at them so they grovel at his feet and just hope he gets disqualified on a technicality.

My bar for their games is high and its been exceeded. I would be happier if it had every feature I can dream up but if I wanted a game that had an infinite scope and an endless development cycle I'd just pay $10k for a ship in star citizen and hope it releases before I die. Thankfully I'm able to enjoy a game made by one of the most lauded and successful video game developers in the world and not be a curmudgeon about it.

Not trying to be a dick, just seems like everyone else is. Don't buy it if you need x feature and it isn't there, maybe they will learn a lesson and make the game you wanted them to next time.

100 mods later and we're cooking

A plane crash can make it easier to claim an alive man is dead as there may not be a body.

I could see this as a means to keep Wagner troops loyalties in check, or just to keep everyone guessing. The most likely scenario though is that Putin did what Putin does which is assassination.

Skyblivion is going to get right to the finish line then get shut down isn't it?

As someone who designs software you are vastly overestimating users, they wake up with their shoes tied together and spill hot coffee on their lap before they even get to the website.

This interview with James Cameron is pretty good, talks about the design issues in detail.
