The two turn system is pretty obviously superior to the american or canadian method by my accounts, since it doesn't give any region a disproportional amont of influence in the election; you need to reach out to everyone, as you should in a republic/democracy It also tends to increase voter...

Okay? actually clicking on this link, the site requires you to declare that you are a US citizen and 18+ in order to be eligible. Yes, you can lie then and there, but nothing tells us there is no check being made at the actual booth. No outside source that I saw has actually went ahead and said...

So funny how everyone's salty over the results. The left can't deal with the fact they lost, and contest the Rust Belt state as well as the rules of the EC itself. Trump then adds fuel to the fire by, again, producing widespread voter fraud out of thin air with no evidence to back him up at...

So today, Trump seems to be on the trail to dial back some of his more controversial positions. He now no longer supports torture and waterboarding, keeps an ''open mind'' on climate change (thankfully), disavowed some of the craziest alt-right loonies that had an infatuation with him, will no...

Na, it's a different protagonist entirely. The expedition leaves before ME3 (and somehow Shepard never learns of it) and arrives 600 years later in Andromeda. They're also doing the DA2 thing where the protagonist has a family running around with them; the father is a fixed character, and...

It's still a bit funny to denounce people ''following mainstream media without question'', then linking Fox News and fucking Breitbart as sources. I mean, for pete's sake, in the case of the latter the conflict of interests doesn't even need to be explained nor as they even remotely bothering to...

I hate Big C as much as the next guy, but failed empire? wat? Rome is probably the most influencial civilization in the Western world, and one of the longest lasting as well. Modern laws, politics, and military are very heavily influenced by Roman ideas, and the map of Europe to this day is...

Especially since so many are found in safes. How useless is that? And how can someone afford a big, reinforced safe, but not a gun that doesn't look like it would rather explode in your hands than fire. And meanwhile, everyone in the Wasteland and their mother runs around toting hunting rifles...

Irak confuses me more. I get wanting to go to Afghanistan, but the logic of ''our enemy is Al-Qaeda and Islamic terrorists, let's invade one of the few Arabic countries where the government is their staunch enemy'' never made any lick of sense to me. Didn't back in 2003, still doesn't to this...

Didn't the State want to regulate that, since Vodka being so cheap translates into rampant alcoholism? And that with their low birthrate, Russians need all the help they can get keeping their population afloat and healthy. But I'm not living there so what do I know.

Turning your entire country into Flint, Michigan does sound like fun.

The map of the US is a bit of a deceiving image; Trump did not, after all's said and done, win the popular vote. Yeah, the rural portions of the country voted for him en masse, but well, they don't compose 95% of the country's population even if they do occupy 95% of the space. In the end, Trump...

I haven't finished the game yet (not even close, I'm still in Act 2) but is it me, or the Chorus are just a bit too cartoonish? I mean, the Disfavored are dicks with a chip on their shoulder who prefer to execute prisoners, sure. But the Chorus acts more like a rabble of savages than an actual...

I remember playing Morrowind some time ago, but without any of the expansions installed. And the quest journal was completely worthless, not only were its directions vague but it wasn't sorted or organized at all, so you sometimes needed to go though ten pages to maybe have a hint on that quest...

@SuAside: since you've finished the game, a question;

Yeah, I'm not too concerned with not being able to rape. You have loads of cruel, expedient and/or coldly efficient choices. I don't think there's a need to make the PC a potential rapist in order for the game to have the ''mature'' tag.

Ok, I officially love the choices in this game. I just I also found a few options I could pursue that could very well change the story in fairly major ways, even if I didn't take them. Looks like Obsidian really wasn't kidding when they said this game has replay value. Oh, and in case anyone...

They do make a point of saying they take their fighters from pure northern stock, so it's highly probable that they aren't too picky on that front so long as you're a decent fighter and come from the right family. Plus, Kyros's empire seems to enforce gender equality, so it's not like this is...

Bought it this morning, played 2 hours. I gotta say, the Conquest backstory is pretty damn cool. I haven't reached a point where it influenced the narrative in a major way, but it's referenced several times already. Definitely adds massive replay value too. The art design is also good. Pillars...

Yeah, I get that, but my point is more that this should be the job of the legislative, given that the Senate is custom-built to have smaller states still enjoy a voice in the government, and the House is also representative of rural areas to a degree (more and more since Republicans...
