That's part of the cost of lies. The RBMK reactions (as operated pre-Chernobyl) are safe as ruled by the powers that be... even if it isn't. The kind of belief/thinking is what led to the disaster. Okay sure, I can cut Dyatlov some slack but he is part of the same shitty power structure and have performed the test in a highly unsafe manner. Dyatlov was repeatedly told of how unsafe the test was by the men he ultimately killed. Yes, I would still hold him accountable even if AZ-5 could work as intended. The AZ-5 button or function could have malfunctioned and then what? Again deny the presence of graphite all over the ground and a hole in the goddamned reactor's roof that is clearly in front of your eyes? The type of person Dyatlov just pisses me off. What also pisses me off is the Soviet power structure that was heavily condemn in the show. I always had a distaste for it but to have it brought before my eyes in such a way was maddening. Bunch of yes men and jack offs. To be sure, Legasov was also part of it in ways and he was a diehard believer up till the disaster. At least he has the courage to admit wrong but it also broke him. It's probably what ultimately led him to suicide. (As an aside, Legasov's... decline reminds me of my own grandfather. True believer in the Chinese Communist Party who was then disillusioned and broken till his final days... which may have included a suicide attempt or two. Or maybe it was a stroke that made him a vegetable. Who knows?) Ah man, the show was a ride for sure. Brought up so many emotions and thoughts (considering that I am a scientist at heart and my political/ideological beliefs). 10/10, would recommend. Game of Thrones Season 8 better not take any awards away from Chernobly. It would be a robbery.

They have two titles in the works. One is indeed Cold Steel related and will probably be like 3rd, either as a standalone or as DLC. This is what was shown off in the screenshots. The next arc is in the works but won't be ready for a good 2-3 years. It's basically impossible that it isn't Calvard related. I want to see my man, Colonel Richards. I won't have anyone to shoot the shits with in here... I probably will get the PS4 version unless it somehow bricks systems or some shit.

Sabaton History Sabaton together with Indy Neidell from the WWI and WWII weekly recap channels (and more!) brings us the historical backing for Sabaton's songs plus some background to how the songs came to be too. Example:
-
It's basically impossible for Sabaton to not play The Price of a Mile (I argue it's one of their best songs) if they play Great War when they are live. Maybe not back to back but Great War literally name drops The Price of a Mile. Same deal with Passchendaele for both songs. This sort of thing has been happening for a bit already but with the Great War album, it's impossible to avoid calling back to previous songs. One great cover of: Or you could change the lyrics...
-
FYI, info for the next arc is dropping now so mute it as best you can if you want to avoid spoilers... Though people dying is probably not going to be a thing...
-
How big is Calvard...? So yeah, I can see why Kiseki is at 60%. Here's to another 15 years!
-
Great. Another awesome metroidvania to play... which I made it sound like a bad thing!

Irresponsible. -
Seem like they use it to reference back to the CGI model which, in their default state, are T-posing. Just make it all easier. Though I'm not sure how it works for Ghidorah's heads (does it distort?). I'm also not sure why they don't start at the beginning (or maybe they do for a second reference point and we just don't see it) but perhaps it is due to the fluidity of the action and less trimming of data (you only need to trim the end instead of both beginning and end).
-
I think this is due to the expectation that this is a shorter (20-30 hours) game but no, you'll be playing it for 45-60 hours. It wasn't helped by the easy combat.

Either the defense on both teams were really strong or the teams were both high and drunk at the same time. -

I love pixel art. You can take it as complicated (say my avatar) or simple as you want (say the cover to the artbook or beyond to 8-bit). You can restrict the color palette or not. You can take into account the display (like many SNES and other games took into account CRTs) or not (straight ports/emus). It's contemporary pixel art and I got an artbook about it. It's in Japanese so it's not much more than pictures to look at and artists to follow.

Have a non-injured Golden State Warriors battle the Raptors. Do it a couple times and I want to see the outcome. -
Love, Death & Robots is basically an excuse for dicks, cunts and body horror. Well, half the time anyways. Some of the shorts are really cool though.

It's interesting to read that you didn't think that's Ganon. That zombie is at the very least a male Gerudo. Hair and jewelry match to my newbie eyes. For those more keen, apparently the symbols coming out of the green vortex thing are Gerudo language. Ganon is perhaps the most infamous male Gerudo. Also perhaps people are looking into it too much but people are saying this zombie seems to call back to Twilight Princess' Ganon. I never beat the game (I personally was able to figure out how to get to the last level...) so I never faced Ganon there. But yeah, if Calamity Ganon is the manifestation of a real, physical Ganon, it changes the outlook of the first game. There's also a distinct possibility that Nintendo is doing more timeline things, for better or for worse.
-
I think I need to get to ROM...
-
Holy shit, it's actually Ganon! So many questions. So much hype. Men, we might witness a GOAT.
-
Ghostwire with Ikumi as creative director will do fine.

Three years ago it was a hype woman. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH And if only the above was real. It's a short clip (8 seconds in) from this trailer:
-
Need to wait for confirmation from Square's stream tomorrow but yeah, March 3rd for first bit (?) of FFVIIR. Edit: Here we go: More tomorrow.

You can't expect Arkane (or any studios for that matter) to pop out sequels too frequently. They got to play around with new IP. So patience (and give me time to get around to Dishonored and The Evil Within)! Anyhow, a new Tales game with a new engine. The last few from what I heard has been lacking. Maybe this will be the change of pace that they needed. Also:
-
Besides Doom Eternal, these two stood out. Hopefully they both will be good!
