    Ask him if he would like to take a trip to Ireland to celebrate his graduation. I’m sure he won’t be starting work immediately, but if he already has a job it’s an easy excuse for at least a 2 week vacation. You could offer to show him around where you live and all the cool spots. Introduce him to your friends and do some of the things you all usually do for fun. Then you can take a trip to the touristy spots, which is conveniently a great excuse to get a room for night in the city, ya know, to make sure you have enough time to see everything and not worry about the travel time and such. Then for the end of the trip, just spend the time relaxing, and hanging out together. Give yourselves the time to get comfortable doing the day to day routine, give him a chance to experience what regular life in Ireland might be if he were to stay a bit longer.


  • That’s ludicrous what they said about the eruptor shrapnel. The shrapnel is what made the weapon good. It was let you take out an 8 bot patrol of raiders in a single shot, it’s what let you destroy fabricators at awkward angles, it’s what compensated entirely for the incredibly slow bolt action chamber you had to do after each shot. Only being able to kill one enemy at a time will make that weapon be awful. It basically becomes a way slower way worse AMR.







  • I mean, it’s true they have a lot of games that use predatory systems designed to trick you into spending more money than you need to. As well as games that are designed purely on capitalizing on base feeling of satisfaction of big number go up. But I feel like this is akin to suing casinos for their games having odds in their favor.

    How much of it is on the company, and how much on the player? Like where is the line? If a game is designed to be solely addictive with no other value or purpose, probably should not be acceptable, but how do you make that determination as a games value is different for every individual.

    Almost impossible to make a blanket judgement on this, and any legal precedent set by this lawsuit will be troublesome no matter which outcome.
