I wish I knew the technique you and King Arthur use to copy snippets of prior posts to reply.
Just select the text in the post of the person you want to quote and press on the reply icon that appears. This copies and pasted the sentence to the reply box and in quotes.
For now I've just pressed reply. I fully understand your logic buying your card. When I mentioned Metro Last Light that is on my ancient computer from 2010 with a Narra6 board 3 Gig of ramifications 500GB hard drive - C partition lol
It is still neat to know that an older computer can still run Metro Exodus. But my previous one is probably prehistoric compared to it, it had for example a Geforce 760 card.
It does have a little bit more internal storage space.
I am not sure which one the ' Mule ' is in but I thought it contradicted what I had read previously, as in the first 2 it was the masses. With the Mule it was more of the individual arises to great heights.
In the second book if I recall well. The Mule is this unexpected wild card that Hari Seldon's psychohistory could not have anticipated. It did include the possibility of such individuals such as the old Empire general from the first book to appear but also that the emperor would not allow a popular general to become a threat to his own power.
The Mule is an unexpected development as psychohistory could not have foreseen the coming of an individual with the unique abilities that the Mule possessed which allowed him to amass great power and territory, though it seems that one of the roles the Second Foundation was created for was to counter such possibilities that could threaten the Seldon plan.
When first playing F2 circa 2000 I was convinced it was just a piss take on Scientology. L Ron Hubbard was supposed to have said something on the lines of " Invent a new religion/cult and you will be quids in "
I had spotted in a Wiki , Hubology was started by a guy Hubbel but that does not convince me lol
Huboglobists are indeed a mocking parody of scientology. What we have been discussing here though is how something like Huboglobism could have arisen in the Fallout wasteland, because of how the cult functions and what it offers/provides but also the resources it possesses (a base akin to a Vault and even a space shuttle that the cult was fixing up).
Other than that it perhaps should have been scrapped or deeply revised, one suggestion of a poster here that I liked was that the Huboglobists were a pre-war faux religion which somehow managed to acquire a Vault, either through connections or maybe the scientists running the Vault Social Experiments programs thought it would make for an interesting project to see how this cult would deal with the destruction of the old world and if it would survive in the new world that followed it.
I had met Phineas and made the jump but not long later I put it on ice.
I have reached Monarch now, but because I could not afford a special item and failed at the quest to retrieve it for free I had to land at another spaceport that is overrun by alien creatures. The next forty minutes I have been going through this stretch of mostly empty land, shooting more creatures and the occasional crazy raider which made me feel that I was more playing a Borderlands game.
I have now reached the town where I could have started this world had I acquired that item. I can not say that Monarch is any more interesting that Terra 2 so far.
