    I wish it was just a you thing, but man you're not wrong to see a problem with how guns are viewed and delt with in the US and elsewhere.

    Totally, I just wanted to be clear that it doesn't mean I'm looking down on Brad and the gang or anything like that.

    I mean, I think guns are pretty cool, but I also think all semi-automatic firearms should be banned. You can do both at the same time. It's like lots of military stuff in games and movies, I think it's perfectly fine to enjoy that stuff and think it's cool and also be critical of it.

    I'm the strange unicorn liberal who grew up in a household full of guns and have continued to be a collector and owner as an adult. I'm regularly torn with how I feel on the subject. I personally don't feel anything when I see the fake gun thing on the Bombcast, but I also appreciate that others feel very differently. It's a thorny issue to be sure.

    I think the point of that story was Japan not giving a shit because they don't have the same issue with guns that the States do, and also that scene of the guns being inspected at the Japanese airport.

    edit: You can be liberal and have guns. I think Gerstmann is/was a gun owner at one point in time. You can also believe that it needs to be regulated and controlled far more than it is.

    guns are bad
    we should illegalize all guns

    fetishizing guns is part of a larger problem

    At my current rate of consumption of soda, it would literally last me the rest of my life.

    It's the same as before, but you have to wear a stifling mask, say 6 feet away from everyone, and get incredibly angry at the people not following those first two rules.

    Oh jeeze, apparently the Beast guys are having to move to a new building "fairly soon."

    Sounds like it's going to really fuck with Bakalar's virtual CES plans.

    Also I have to assume they just have to move out of the CBS building, they don't necessarily have to move into some place else, esp during a pandemic.

    Or maybe they'll set up the new studio and then never use it.

    Dan playing is not as good as Dan backseating Brad playing, though.

    Vinny playing is where the real magic is but Dan inspiring Brad is also good.

    Oh of course Vinny is the actual master player.

    But Vinny works for an outlet, so he's probably not going to do their advertising for them.

    I get why they did it, but Brad is right: Hitman is meant to be episodic. Dumping it all at once just means people stop caring faster.

    Edit: I guess it's good that it comes out after GOTY, so they don't have to rush to finish it for consideration. It will be a 2021 game.

    Also complained on the forums in their voting bug reporting thread that Friendship with Benefits wasn't in their database, because dammit, that game is great.

    a

    To be fair, its really hard to find flavored caffeinated diet soda like this. If it were safe enough for me to go into a store, I would buy not that much, but maybe half or more. That stuff does just go bad after a year, and I couldnt justify buying a years supply. but thats like maybe 4 months in his cart based on how I drink soda. If it were regular times I'd get a road trip going for funsies with friends.

    1.4 12oz sodas a day isn't a big deal. Especially the amount of water/tea I drink on top of that.

    I wrote up my list later than usual, but since it's generally tied to when they do their goty stuff I guess that makes sense.

    For the community vote I figured HZD wouldn't be allowed even though the PC version came out this year, so I bumped everything up and dropped in Journey to the Savage Planet to the #10 slot.

    Man, I really had to scrape for my list, turns out I didn't play that many new games this year (I didn't bother ranking those I played but didn't enjoy). And somehow my #1 lasted from January for the entire year.
