    Remember that guy on the Beth forums who had two accounts? He would always argue with us with one and then log in with the second agree with what he said.

    That’s who this dude reminds me of.

    Which one was that? There we're so many colorful characters on Beth it's hard to recall. I remember Longknife, Elven Princess, Treng, and all the Mods. (I loved Roguh.)

    So it’s ok to make a country their bih so long as they plan to force them to rock the ring “eventually”?

    XD I’m not seeing the logic here.

    As for the US I think we incorporate the idea of why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free.

    Relatively speaking.

    Well it's smart. Might as well have a force there in preparation for the take over (Troops who will by now know all the local customs and know the area better) 

    The US way....eh, I guess it's to exert an area of control without owning the territory?

    You realize this is exactly what Romans did to territory they couldn’t control?

    Germany, hello? And that’s not devil’s advocate, that’s just you advocating XD:P 

    It's different . The Romans set up Forts at the borders of the empire as a kind of command center, with the eventual full conquest of the territory. Or they set up forts in puppet states/satrpies to watch their puppets carefully, and exert Roman dominance/power on them until it was time to send in the Legios.

    I don't recall reading about the Romans having areas they weren't planning on fully taking over?

    I don't think the US has any plans to fully take over the regions they set up their military bases like South Korea. Or do they...?

    I'm really confused about this. So, he's saying that America is bad because it's imperialistic, which, yeah, I agree. I'm taking a class on US Imperialism this semester and it's hard to deny that fact, although I don't know that most people think Afghanistan is an example of that. It's mostly Iraq. What's strange to me is he's obviously saying he doesn't agree with American imperialism, and yet he agrees with Cyrodiilic imperialism? How does that make sense? 

    To play devil's adovate, Roman Imperialism is quite a bit different then American Imperialism. Americans like to maintain military bases, exert influence from the shadows, and wage proxy wars without fully occupying foreign territory. 

    BTW Disney is too chicken to do this. LOL, not going to happen.

    I wouldn't give them all that much credit as publishers, myself. The games they publish are often really great, but it's usually in spite of Bethesda, not because of them. They're horrible at actually advertising any of their games that aren't TES or a numbered Fallout.

    I love that he even made a point to say that it's the place for true lore buffs. :rofl: 

    Like, it's literally the place that all lore buffs point at as a bad source for TES information.

    Dishonored 2 and Evil Within 2 really suffered especially. Sucks cause their great sequels...

    But they have an eye for talent unmatched. They consistently shit out great products, even if they don't sell well....

    Now Balrog knows the pain of seeing a beloved gaming company treating their baby like a common Atlanta whore

    Dude... don't compare this to what Beth is doing. you were here when I showed the Gambling Machines off? This isn't news to me. Metal Gear has been treated like shit ever since Konami locked Kojima in a room, and said he wasn't allowed to receive his award at the Game Awards.

    I haven’t played in a little while. PoE is definitely a long term hobby for me. The last thing I remember doing is starting off to find a man who is locked away in a dungeon in Defiance Bay.

    If there’s an option to roll a Barbarian, I take it. XD So far it has worked pretty well. Though I do tend to get messed up more than other party members but that just comes with the territory. 

    Bloodborne is just too good for you to put down XD

    They won’t let me play Ass creed or any of their games without signing in first, which I can’t do because of some two step authentication put on my account, which requires google authentication. I don’t have this set up and cannot set it up without signing in...

    Which apparently is because of hackers which they’ve been having issues with so I’m stuck unable to play their games all because they just HAVE to have you sign in to their stupid app first.

    Hmmm that fucking sucks. Did you try using support tickets? Honestly I would just pirate the game. You already payed for it, wouldn't be stealing.

    Ubisoft isn't good in my book, with all the shenanigans they pulled on PC players. Their DRM still fucks up their games.

    I've never had problems with any of their games. And they have such a fricken diversity of games and titles. They aren't afraid to take risks and make something new, which alot of publishers seem to lack these days.

    Generally speaking their recent games have been of very high quality.
