You're a fool not to gently caress rednecks.

Here in Philadelphia (the big one in PA) the city is generally pronounced "full-delphia" and our little brother to south, Baltimore, is either "balta-more" or "ball-tee-more"

I've heard Louisville pronounced something like Lullavull from a few natives I've known. And Baltimore ave was always baldy-more to the old timers.

Back when I used to go to Otakon, I was very confused by someone talking about how long they'd lived in "bawmur" or something like that.

This isn't about the Baltimore accent, which is its own thing, but how Philadelphians say Baltimore. Baltimore ave/Baltimore Pike is a major thoroughfare in West and Southwest Philly, as well as some of the more Southern burbs. My father in law, who grew up partly in Yeadon, always called it Baldy-more. He also would talk about going to "the ack-uh-mee."

Nah, Dooley, the man in the video, is from Baltimore.

There are similarities with some Philly accents, but this video was about Baltimore.

The Telltale episodes are actually pretty good. Not as good as 1/2/3 but miles above 4.

They're right, 3 is amazing. I think 1 just beats it for being the original, but 3 has a gorgeous art style and the voice acting is perfect. The only weak section is the weird ship combat minigame which you can set to just run automatically.

Phaiston have long avoided the tightly competetive defence sector, but the IRDA Act 2052 has given us the freedom we need to bring out something really special.

The final puzzle of 3 is pretty clunky and compared to the :psyboom: that MI2's ending was, the ending sequence of 3 is pretty bland. Also, I never pictured LeChuck's voice as a goofy ham in the first two, although I think stuff like that is a problem with VA in video games in general.

E: 3's art style is gorgeous and absolutely nails the feel while not being just a recreation of the first two, though, and most of the rest of the game is a worthy as hell sequel.
