@beardalaxy The series director said back in 2014 that the series would never feature VR because horizon shakes would make gamers motion-sick. I guess the executives thought otherwise.
So I finally got around to playing and beating Ace Combat 7. I got the Switch version despite having it on PC for a while only because I currently don't have a computer powerful enough to run it.
The game taught me that military prison is worse than slavery. I don't know how accurate it is to real life military prison, but imagine dealing with a nasty commander, captain, general, coach, or drill sergeant and they still treat you like absolute shit even if you done everything right and get put in extremely dangerous missions where you can't even defend yourself. Again, I don't know how accurate this is, but it's something that I hope never happens to me.
Also, why can't our wars be like the ones in Strangereal? I'm not a fan of war in general, but I would rather live in a universe where a country declares war because they had a sperg-out over a foreign country building a space elevator in their continent, than to have shitty, endless proxy wars.
However when it comes to the actual game, it's good, but I feel like they've abused the realistic clouds way too much. I know that they need to introduce something to keep that sleeping series relevant, but I feel like they overdid it. It just feels like they are just showing what they can do in UE4 and the effect wears off quickly. Other than that, I feel like the game is a good revival to a a series that seriously needed it.
@beardalaxy Maybe it's a hybrid. I think some WRPGs also have "collect the MacGuffins" plots.
@pepsi_man I actually got the idea for this poll from the Hasan shock collar incident. I didn't have bestiality in mind.
@Wiz@loli.church On the plus side, because Windows 11 has dumb artificial hardware restrictions, a lot of Windows 10 era tech stuff will be thrown away or sold very cheaply now. Not just computers, but peripherals too.
I personally recommend getting a Windows Mixed Reality headset, as they are no longer supported on Windows 11. They are essentially ewaste unless you run GNU/Linux with glorious Monado OpenXR.
@_anti James Corbett has done a video about this subject. Niantic openly admits to selling their game data to governments.
@Alex They can still communicate via mouthing. They can blink their eyes in Morse code or in binary.
@Alex Humans can petition for their rights. Animals cannot.
Murray Rothbard made that distinction in The Ethics of Liberty.
@Alex Read "The Secret Life of Plants" and you will realize that plants might be self-aware too, so there is no point in trying to not cause harm to other lifeforms besides your own kind, unless you want to die.
@xianc78
Animal rights are a self-contradictory concept. Is it against a rat's rights to be eaten by a snake? Is it abuse to eat a hamburger? Or worse? What about the chemical warfare we use on animals to protect our crops and homes?
I am sorry, but although animal abuse is retarded, it is still a priviledge of being a supperior entity on this planet. So, this poll is offering one choice that is clearly a positive one, and one negative.
And to clarify, "libertarian animal rights" mean that the pet owner can abuse and/or slaughter their own pets because it is their property.
