I still like best when the Hon. Otis Wright said “Being a lawyer is not for you. I want you to resign from the profession,” and the guy said “I will not do that,” and then the judge said “ok, then I’ll take care of it for you!”

I can't imagine how I would feel if I had a federal judge say that he would do everything in his power to remove me from the profession.

I'll be a little contrarian, and say Bravo to Cpt. Hook for showing up (eventually), falling on his sword for the clients, and ultimately taking his rear end chewing like a man.

Had he not brought their families into it, I’m guessing they would have rolled their eyes and then he would have been a total coward in person after telling those guys he would tattoo their faces and waterboard their clients—during the deposition he would pretend like he’d never called them cocksuckers and gay boys, and then he would go back to being the navy SEAL pipe hitting killer over email. The fact that he didn’t announce himself until halfway through completely guts any claim that he was contrite or accepting of responsibility.

Yeah no, he was trying to see if the judge would let it go if he was fired. He just figured out if the court had to do another order for him to appear it would somehow be even worse.

Phil Moscowitz posted:Is this good? I don’t know Jack about the books. I’ve only played TW3, so it’s a bit hard to follow because I only know who about half the people are. Cavill’s a good Geralt though. The rest of the casting for characters you’ll know from the game is good too. There are noticeable budget constraints. It’s only 8 episodes (I’m through 5), so it’s not a huge investment.

Toona the Cat posted:I am playing on dad mode and still dying easily. Give it some time. The game is pretty unforgiving until you figure it out, both the actual sword fighting (dodging and rolling are essential) and the inventory/potions/oils and stuff. Always equip oils and potions before big fights and always match up your weapons and magic with the monsters you’re fighting. Also the quests (story and otherwise) are awesome and there are tons of them, you don’t have to just futz around unless you want to.

The fighting isn’t very hard once you figure it out, the difficulty is more tedious that anything. Also the skellig island area has a bunch of boring rear end poo poo swimming question marks just skip that poo poo

Good Yule, you miserable cretins! Remember to observe the holiday traditions, blood sacrifice a lamb to Odin and hvítakristr (whitechrist) and paint your door lest the Oskorei, the riders of the wild hunt come in the night and claim your soul this yuletide!

The first 15-20 hrs are a bit of a slog bc you want to be thorough and it’s a peasant misery simulator. The game hooks you about halfway through Velen.

Also there’s nothing stopping you stealing a sailboat and cruising up the coast until you get to Novigrad (just don’t stop on the coast because red skulled monsters will wreck your poo poo)

Don’t even need a boat. Just ride Roach to the river and swim across. Is there really any value to sequence breaking though? There are some low level quests in Novigrad, but you’re not going to get or be able to use better gear. Plus you miss the best quest sequence in the main game.
