I cannot, for the life of me, get my picture to post of my favorite tree. I resized it as low grain as possible and cropped it, then screen shot it…still won’t post. It is simply a birch tree, a great big mother in front of my cabin. Sadly when they relocated my driveway, they dug out a portion of her roots, and she is now dying. It’s also not a great season to show off her girth and beauty. But i wanted to share, my literal favorite tree.

I was taught its only in relation to spending. You can be a conservative democrat, if you believe in traditional democratic values but also believe we should spend money conservatively A liberal believes we should spend money liberally to achieve those results. It’s like two spectrums overlayed. A graph of political identity.

Sure especially these days where everything is extremism in American politics it doesnt seem that way. Everything is right wing or left wing.

I remember when it was rude to talk about politics or religion. Everyone was allowed to believe what they want and still be friends with each other. Crazy.

Not taking a stance, just saying what i was taught at least. Times have changed since i was educated.

Yup just cancelled my subscription, once i followed the link to confirm from Playstation not heresy. And yeah what a way to announce it, douches.

I’m a long time Playstation fan, had every system.

sigh

That’s why you gotta pay them the big bucks, because they care. I’ll happily pay them to do things right.

I have such an issue supporting Konami after all that shit storm with Kojima. But I care too much for these games to not buy it.

I just re-played mgs1 on my ps1 a few months ago. Curious how they will do the mantis battle, and “turn to page 16 in the game manual for frequency number” type meta stuff.

I still just enjoy anything Kojima, and choose to support generally anything he has a hand in. So ultimately I don’t feel too awful pre ordering this set. But still FucKonami.

I’ve been waiting to see another soul speak up about that franchise. They are for sale on PSN still. I think for like $30 a piece because they know they’re still great games.

I bought it so me and my girlfriend could play splitscreen (which no one seems to make anymore) and it was just as fun as I remember.

The sad thing is no real end of game content but that’s how those old school games were. Get your character all bad ass and just how you want them, then roll credits.

I still think of that tavern song too, and the gruff sounding trader in the second game, with the long white hair and beard “Whatever you need, you can find, Right-Here.” Something about the way he punches that “right-here” tickles me lol.

Yeah I was teenager playing Baldurs Gate and 2 on PC. I only knew THAC0 because I was a D&D enthusiast and read my uncle’s old books.

I’m still new to Beehaw not sure how y’all are clipping pieces of the conversation, and replying.

It seems like a big deal to me, but everyone has been saying the industry is moving to online only anyways. Like the new Diablo.

I read that BG3 is upwards of 150gigs and plenty of reasons and excuses for digital only. They can't fit it on one disc is the main one but still. 

What’s gog? I was hoping for it on PS5, don’t have a powerful enough computer I imagine. Just a 10 year old laptop.

Yeesh, I’m a “Baldurs Gate Oldhead” XD man I’m getting old.

I could just cry at the fact that BG3 is download only. If they never release it hardcopy I will never be able to play it. Being out in the boonies. Even if they could just put what they can on a disc ya know?

Been looking for a good split screen to play with my gal, and yet what I’m sure is a masterpiece is out of reach.

There’s also the Dark Alliance Oldheads, they don’t need to be quite as old as me to have played those. Just replayed Dark Alliance II with my gal and it was well worth the heavy price tag for such an old title. Unlike the new Dark Alliance garbage. Which I bought to play split screen and it is not.
