I know Portal isn’t a shooter. But Portal made me think of them. I feel like a lot of FPSs would fit OP’s question. Half-Life 2 and most of the Halo games come to mind.

He has lost a lot in courts. The problem is that even 1% of his obviously unconstitutional bullshit winning in courts is disastrous.

A glass of water with 1% shit in it is almost entirely water. But it’s still shit water.

X actually went back to fully turn-based, getting rid of the ATB.

XII still had the ATB, but you could move freely in the environment and all enemies were already there. So no more random battles.

XV was the first mainline Final Fantasy with active battles. But games like Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, and Lightning Returns had it earlier.

FFX is tied as my favorite game of all time. It’s the only other game consistently talked about as being the best in the series along with VII.

It sucks that the delay caused him to quit. But also, I’m glad it got delayed if it meant that we got the final product that we did.

XIII and XIII-2 were both standard turn based. It just had stacked ATB gauges. But it was still standard menu battling.

I’d argue XII was turn based too, it just let you move while the ATB gauge filled.

Final Fantasy Dimensions and World of Final Fantasy exist too. But people forget those.

I’ve loved most of the Final Fantasy games. But the PS1 games (the golden era) were the worst about this.

Pre-PS1 typically required more thought. You had to balance magic use, item use, and of course melee. But even then you had to debate whether to spend a turn reviving your healer or try to get the victory before a team wipe.

Post PS1 you had X’s rock paper scissors battle. You had to figure out who could attack who. It wasn’t too complicated but it forced variety.

XII streamlined the auto attacking and allowed you to focus on the exceptions (enemy weak against fire, use silence, cure). That could be automated too, but I liked to handle that myself.

XIII & XIII-2 forced you to balance your jobs/classes constantly in battle.

Lightning Returna, XV, and XVI were real time.

Tactics was PS1, but it definitely required more than just attack.

The PS1 games, for the most part, could be dominated with “press X”. Most of the strategy took place outside of battle.

Just claim they’re illegal immigrants and you can.

I loved his movies. FFH wasn’t as good, it felt a bit more slapstick with him fumbling around a lot. They toned down Mysterio to make him more palatable which is a shame. But otherwise they nailed the essence of him. I’m excited to see him come back through his crew.

Him specifically, he’s fine for what they’re doing with his iteration. I still would rather Garfield’s just be incorporated into the MCU. Holland’s feels too nice to be as snarky as Garfield’s. I don’t think it’s Holland’s fault, they just wanted him chatty and naive. Plus Garfield was already self-reliant.

But if they had gone down that route with Holland, I think he could have nailed it even better since it would be more unexpected. Garfield’s Spider-Man wore his anger on his sleeves.

They could easily do jokester/mocking with Holland now that he’s in the thick of superheroing.

I like the movie trailers. But one of the theaters i used to go to started showing 5 minutes of ads, like the premovie soda and popcorn, cars, etc. I dont go to that one anymore.

If Dems are trying to actual progressive, it’s only in relation to Republicans.

I think most Dems try to appeal to actual conservative values. It’s non-intrusive, light on protections, nothing that might make the average voter uncomfortable (no reparations, no medicaid for all, no major police reform etc). They’re pretty vocal about it. It’s just that their opposition is fucking terrorists that hate most of their own country.

I was going to say, after reading the article, I was surprised to see that in the video.

Boomers and Gen X suffer permanent brain damage due to lead poisoning that directly correlates to their radicalized views.

Ending slavery should be one of the more important ones. It’s one of the biggest milestones in our nation.

Fuckem.

But also I would’ve rather had Harris than Trump.

Wut?

If more people had, we’d be in a better place right now.

Also, what does that have to do with this? This is blue vs blue. This is when “vote blue no matter who” doesn’t apply.

I don’t remember anyone promising anything. Just that sabotaging Harris out of spite was objectively bad and that you could bash Dems as much as you want after the election.

Nobody promised a revolution.

I dont remember anyone promising to reform the party. The point was to stop infighting until after the election and agree that she was the better option.

They picked her as VP in 2020. If Biden had a heart attack on the debate stage, she’d be the incumbent.

Biden, was entrusted with the nomination. It was out of the people’s hands after that point. And ultimately the transfer was in his hands.

In addition to the fact that nobody serious ran against her, and it’s just a really unfortunate circumstance. It wasn’t authoritarianism.

I wish we had an open primary. Hell, Harris might have won if she came out of it as the DNC leader, which would probably require a harder stance on Biden.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I’m agreeing with OP.

The Republicans are painting Jews and warmongers. What the Republicans are doing is antisemitic.
