The Plinkett video is not about the new movie. It's about the resurgence of Star Wars poo poo in the past few years due to Disney buying the IP rights and its related bullshit. That's why the title of the video is "The Star Wars Awakens." tl;dr: reading is hard.

I agree that Trek is better than Wars but god dammit Rogue Squadron was the poo poo. Why does Star Wars always get the good games? I want TellTale to do TNG season 8. since everything is being rebooted nowadays why not

I just realized that one of my biggest problems with FPS games is that when playing multiplayer I still aim too far ahead of my target. It's an old habit from my 56k connection in the '90s and I haven't been able to get rid of the mental habit ever since DSL and hit detection were improved. I realized it while getting yelled at in CSGO for bad aim because I twitched the mouse at a guy moving slowly to aim ahead of him. :smith:

I'm sorry to break y'alls circlejerk but fox and hedgehog are actual jargon for certain types of political people/pundits. It's from that Nate Silver guy's book from 6-ish years ago. It's the reason his blog site, fiveturdyeight, has a fox as its logo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hedgehog_and_the_Fox#Influence ctrl+f "nate silver"

so it's actually not game-related, sadly

I never play single player games anymore. I don't know what it is but I feel like a switch flipped in my brain around a year ago. Now when I sit down in the evening to play something it's almost always overwatch or something coop that I can play with friends.

Maybe I just need something good to come out and kick me from this funk.

I felt the same way up until a little while ago when I tried out The Banner Saga, which gave me that suspension of disbelief I need to buy into the experience. I know you said you're not into turn based stuff, but I kind of felt like this was the least annoying of that genre so it worked out for me.

Also the LA Noire plot is pretty good, I'm about halfway through. Decided to just watch a let's play after all. Remember that Heavy Rain game? That had a pretty awesome plot, too, come to think of it.

Do you have a source for that, because I can't find anything to verify it.
http://www.oregonlive.com/oregon-standoff/2016/10/oregon_standoff_verdicts_annou.html -- ctrl+f "informants"

protip: go to google news and ctrl+f "highly cited" and "most referenced" to find the actual stuff worth reading.

Just to put this into context, though: just because they were "informants" doesn't mean they were plants or whatever. It just means that they were recruited by the FBI to turn on their own people or at least to keep the FBI informed on what was going on internally with their group. Part of the reason why the jury apparently acquitted all of them was because the government wasn't willing to disclose who the informants were or put them up on the stand, so the defense lawyer made it seem like they were all provocateurs and plants... and the government couldn't reveal their secrets so the defense's bluff wasn't called and the jury gave them reasonable doubt. That's just my understanding of it, anyway.

Why did you put spoiler tags there.

Because the original comment about the topic that I quoted or whatever was in spoiler tags so I was just going with it

edit-- also because it was kind of off-topic and as we all know off-topic is cool if you put spoiler tags around it
