I'll take anybody but MBS at this point.

So as someone who has obsessive-compulsive tendencies but definitely not OCD I would define it as such: OCD is when your general functioning is noticeably and demonstrably impaired by your obsessive-compulsive behaviour.

I can get stuck in loops sometimes and I can get hung up on things, but I've seen people with actual OCD around when I've been at my psychiatrist's clinic and it's different.

Get ready for some media overreactions!

Yeah, I believe Warren Spector has said before that the premise of Deus Ex was literally "what it every conspiracy theory was true", and not really anything deeper than that.

Lemmy.zip opened up piefed.zip as well.

So Piefed absorbed a lions share of the lemm.ee refugees it looks like?

Pyro only isn't really possible without glitches or summons since Queelag is fire immune. But Sorcery+Pyro "spells only" should be fine. Enemies tend to be resistant to damage types, not general "magic", so if you can switch it up you're all good. Dukes archives shouldn't be a problem if using Pyromancy.

First your regular articles, and now an in-depth interview. And you dare suggest your not a proper gaming journalist?

Love your work as always.

The depressed cynic in me says the billionaires will just find new tax havens and other embezzling ways around it. But it's a good initiative and I pray it actually leads to something tangible.

Pretty terrible article honestly.

With Alpine locked to the bottom of the Constructors' Championship, he wants short-term progress soon.

Having two strong drivers delivering consistently can have a significant impact – as Williams are seeing with their experienced line-up of Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz.

This narrative that it's the driver lineup making the difference is disappointing, especially from formula1.com. Gasly is a good driver and it's not like he's been raking in points. Alpine isn't last because they have a bad second driver.

Secondly, he wants the team to take advantage of sweeping changes to the aerodynamic and power unit regulations next season – and the arrival of Mercedes power, which is widely expected to be among the best, if not the best, engines next year.

Bringing on someone with Bottas' experience could help on both counts.

Maybe? As far as I understand it drivers have very limited impact on the development of the car these days. Plus, literally everything is new next year.

This is the second really positive review of the game I've read the past few days. I might actually slot it into my backlog now.

Samantha Béart (who plays Karlach in the game), Theo Solomon (Wyll) and Dave Jones (Halsin) were asked how the success of the game had changed their lives and careers.

Okay listen I don't want to sound rude, but I'm not that surprised. Maybe Karlach deserves a bit more recognition but while both Wyll and Halsin were both fine and perfectly adequate, I can't say that either was the kind of memorable performance that gets you tons of new roles. Though it's also in part due to the script and direction of course.
