  • Doesn’t matter. The entire corrupt justice system continually gives this bozo every single possible way to weasel out of shit that no other person on the planet would ever be granted. Nothing is going to stick, all of the media attention about these cases is only hardening his support on the right. Our justice system is bought and paid for and he is one of the biggest contributors, absolutely none of the court cases are going to stick no matter how many things he may have done that are illegal. Anyone who thinks otherwise has had too much of the kool-aid at this point. Justice is dead and the highest court of the land is in his pocket. This is all for show at this point and it’s only serving him and his base.

    Vote like democracy and your country depends on it, because at this point it absolutely does.







  • I’ve been playing GW2 since beta – heck, I’ve been playing Guild Wars since the original game’s beta, I am a sucker for a good MMO that isn’t pay-per-month. I still remember the end of the original Guild Wars beta when meteors started falling down killing everyone in Ascalon. My wife isn’t quite as interested in MMO-esque experiences, she more likes the couch co-op style (we played D3 until Paragon 950+ on PS4 Pro and play D4 on PS5), so I haven’t been able to get her playing it yet – but I’ll keep trying!



  • D4 is an exercise in how a lot of effort and a lot of thought can go into something and result in a game that’s inferior in the important ways (is the game actually fun to play, is progression fun and rewarding) while also being technically superior to its predecessors – the game looks amazing, the engine is fantastic.

    I’m playing it with my wife and it’s just not very fun yet. It reminds me of grinding levels in classic WoW, but without the benefit of getting new skills and feeling more powerful with the levels. I’m hoping that after some patches, seasons, and expansion packs that it gets to be a little more fun, but right now they’ve made leveling so slow and so inconsequential that the game is just a repetitive slog. You’re not getting any new skills past level 50 but it takes absolutely eons longer to go from level 50 to 100 than it did to go from 1-50, all areas in the entire game except for nightmare dungeons are level scaled so you aren’t actually getting any more powerful with each level, you’re just watching numbers go up while killing exactly the same things in exactly the same way you have been for the last 50 levels.

    Appreciably, Diablo 3 was kind of crap at launch as well and it wasn’t until they removed the RMAH, added a new class, added adventure mode and bounties, and added a lot of seasonal content that it fleshed out to being as fun as it is now. I’m hopeful that D4 eventually gets there but man it’s just not the fun I was hoping for presently.
