Yeah, it’s the water. That’s the problem

And this is the real heart of the problem. I would love to see a ban on all political advertising while providing an easily accessible source to read the policies of each party. Without the branding and cults of personality we could have a system that actually makes decision based on policy
I admit it might help the current problem, since people less passionate about the issues might be less inclined to vote for reactionaries, but I don’t think the result would be better representation. Most likely the result would be a system that leans even heavier on marketing to get brand recognition for the party to the most people
The fear and anger is to get people to vote for them. That wouldn’t go away under mandatory voting. Unfortunately, unless we can find a way to resolve the culture war that has spread globally now, that will always be an easy exploit
Because it’s a terrible idea? Elections are already heavily weighted towards name recognition. What are people who can’t even be bothered to go out to vote going to offer to the process?
Kings quest didn’t have character progression or choices to be made (at least in the ones I played). That’s pretty core to qualify as an rpg
This is exciting! I played this for the first time in years while visiting a friend of mine earlier this year. It still holds up! We tried getting online multiplayer going when I got home but had no luck getting it going. I’ll have to keep an eye on this project.
Also worth mentioning that Ross Lake Hotel was recently sold and I heard the new owner was going to be converting it back into a single house. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new owner decided that was going to be harder than he thought. The timing of it all is very suspect
These kind of initiatives are actually pretty great. Like most english language media, video games are pretty American dominated. Funding to games with unique perspectives could lead to some really interesting projects. I played a really interesting game called Black Book a while back. It was a fascinating look into Finno-Ugric culture in pre-revolution Russia (and a pretty good game, too). I’d love to see more titles like that
Can’t say I expected to see rimworld up here
? What a strange conclusion. Because someone may have lied about a largely insignificant detail of this war you’re going to pick a side? Fuck Hamas and also fuck Netanyahu. I can’t do anything about Hamas but I can try to stop my government from supporting Netanyahu
Damn! I was playing so much Starcraft I didn’t realize how much was going on that year. So many classics for every genre
This is the third post I’ve seen about Stanley cups and only now did I realize it had nothing to do with hockey. I was very confused how someone had spent $3000 on Stanley cups
