Reality vs Adventure

MK 1 for sure and my favorite series, Assassin's Creed Mirage. I forgot what hits are coming out

Has anyone played with the bad karma abilities? Which way do you like playing more, the good karma or bad karma? I'm making my play through a good karma on the first game. Looks like it's too much trouble to switch karmas in the same game. BTW, I noticed Sucker Punch made Infamous, same developer who made Ghost of Tsushima!

It's an excellent game and you are in for a treat. The game only saves automatically when you begin a new quest so you definitely want to make sure you save frequently at the campsites spread around the map. The campsite is the only way to either quick save or manually save. If you don't save frequently, you can lose some work you put in if you die. The rest on how you want to fight is up to you. Some machines have vulnerabilities and parts on their body are weaker to certain elements. Use your ear focus ability to pin point their parts. Plus your menu has a description of the machines you discover. You can pick up modifications to enhance your gear from downed machines. Once you place a modification on a piece of gear, you can't take it off unless you use your experience points to unlock the skill to be able to switch around your modifications to different gear. It's no biggie really, just a heads up. Every merchant you come across where you buy and sell good, they all offer a free chest you can open so don't forget to get your free chest from every merchant. Look for items you need to upgrade your carry capacity for resources and modifications. You will be stuck walking slow if you don't. Just do your thing and enjoy. Play on normal mode. You can always change it whenever. You also have the photo mode from your pause button menu.

Republicans have banned African American history college credit course for seniors in another state, Arkansas. Their reason is because they now say African American history is indoctrination. Other states are reviewing the course and no doubt will get banned in every red state. 1) Florida and Arkansas banned African American college credit course 2) Around 30 states have either banned or trying to ban CRT, discussion of racial history in schools 3) Florida schools now teach blacks benefited from slavery 4) Florida is now using a non accredited PragerU to show right wing propaganda videos to kids in schools 5) Texas banned discussion of civil rights amendments to the constitution in schools 6) Red states are now banning diversity and inclusiveness in universities 7) Psychology college credit course is under attack in Florida 8] It's open season to ban whatever book you want, except not the bible 9) Teachers can now go to jail for having a banned book 10) Public libraries are shutting down, and republicans are proposing to jail librarians 11) Entire catalogs of digital books by the thousands are getting banned 12) Texas and Florida has terminated people in their education dept and instated their political cronies 13) Texas is turning school libraries into detention centers in the largest county of the state, Harris County Houston 14) Tenure is being taken away from professors, censoring their free speech and research 15) Affirmative Action is banned from college acceptance, now they are trying to ban scholarships for minorities 16) Trans in sports is getting banned, required genital exams of kids 17) Can't say any gender related terms in Florida schools 18) Public taxes is now legal to be used for tax exempt private religious schools 19) School football coaches, teachers can now openly pray in the classroom 20) Texas forced all schools to hang a large poster of the 10 commandments in all classrooms

I decided to play the whole series from the start. I just started playing the first one on ps3 and it’s pretty good so far. I’ve got a good feeling about this series. That’s too bad there won’t be a remake because this would be a top hit game if it was. It’s a hidden gem for sure.

Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida USA is forcing all schools to teach that blacks benefited from slavery. Don't get any more racist than that. What's next, genocide?

Ask yourself what your religion teaches. Are you drifting from what your religion teaches? Are your religious leaders saying things against your foundation of what you are supposed to practice? Are they manipulating versus to serve a purpose? Are they collecting money? Are they trying to make you an extremist against others? Do they want you to harm others? Do they tell you it's ok to harm others? Does their words make you feel violent towards others? Are they anti government? Is your church obsessed with jailing people? Does your church put others in harm? Do you feel there is no way out? Are your peers coercing you? Are you uncomfortable? Do you feel pressured by your spouse? A no win situation? There is help out there for you.

Observer System Redux is one hell of a game. It's a must play. It's probably the most trippy game I've played. The visuals, mind messing story, top notch! There were moments where I was just aww struck. Bloober Team has much brilliance.

I hope you are able to go to Canada. I honestly think it would be a wise move. The USA is a dangerous place and this is the type of scenario where only bad things are gonna happen in this country. The GOP are full blown nazis, they are just dreaming of gaining all power so they can finally come out in the wide open with it. And the attack on blacks and especially LGBTQ, it's prelude to what they are really after, genocide. Stephen Miller, pretty sure you heard about that nazi, he just said that new pink pop tarts are sexualizing children. How crazy these fuckers are. He is calling for a ban on pop tarts now because they have a new pink flavor. This obsession....what can I say....if I hear some asshole complain about a pink pop tart in person I swear I will lose it and start swinging. Seriously. This is fucking nuts!!! Does that mean pink bubble gum and pink ice cream turns kids gay??? These people need to get a life. Get their heads out the gutter. But they can't. This is their agenda. I mean, it will come to the point where the color pink, and all rainbows are banned. They gonna start complaining about Crayola crayons and a rainbow on the package? They gonna slap their kid for looking at a rainbow in the sky? Insanity!!!

I agree, I think a GI Joe MK style game would be a hit! It's such a perfect possibility. GI Joe has tons of characters to choose from variety of backgrounds. And Cobra has seemingly unlimited resources and technology to make an excellent villain and a story with no bounds. Like MK has different worlds and powers and all to make it all that much more interesting. Cobra terrorist organization also makes all sorts of tech that is way advanced with arms dealer Destro whose head is plated in metal. Serpentor is a genetically modified villain created from DNA of historic conquerors and tyrants through world history making him want nothing more than to rule the world. And Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow are two ninjas who have been both nemesis and allies reminding me of Sub Zero and Scorpion. Serpentor Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow

Speaking of Ohio, just today I literally just found out that anti abortion republicans lost the special election in the state which republicans were trying to keep abortion rights off of any constitution measure. They got whipped. That's what has been going around even in red states. So even republicans are sharing in their want for the freedom of women to be able to choose. Then of course you have the extremists who are debating whether to negotiate milder abortion laws or go full out apocalypse outright banning abortions with no considerations what so ever. And that is a losing strategy. But hey, go for it shit stained extremists.

Every time Trump speaks it's a dangerous lie. Republicans know that their extremism towards anti abortion is not what Americans want and so every republican state is now trying to block any abortion measures to be voted on the ballot. We saw the hard lined right wing state of Kansas where even those voters voted for the right to have an abortion. That is a deep red state that voted for pro choice. Americans, democrats and republicans alike do not want these extreme bills republicans are passing. They know it is a losing issue and they are trying to take away American's choices away to be able to vote on it in special elections. It's simple as that. Their anti abortion bills are authoritarian because they refuse to allow people to vote on it. And when they can't take the measure off the ballot, what do they do? They raise the bar and increase the percentage of voters it takes. Instead of having a majority of voters, now in Ohio they require 60% of voters to win any right to pro abortion. Republicans are cheats and liars. They are authoritarian through and through. A far right extremist anti abortion activist, Lauren Handy was involved in obstructing a clinic for reproductive rights which is a federal crime. Her and others went inside, chained themselves, blocked access, and now when the police went to her home to arrest her later, they found 5 fetuses in her refrigerator that she stole. Now we are gonna have a big fiasco with this case because republicans are trying to grant those dead fetuses 'fetal personhood.' That means if a fetus is granted personhood, then Handy legally stole the fetuses due to saving persons from, I don't know, kidnapping? Murder? The fetuses were already dead though. But this really is sick. If a fetus is granted personhood, that will give the fetus more rights than the mother. She will be treated as an incubator and nothing else. A fetus that has zero percent chance of survival will be forced for the mother to carry it to still birth. And that could cause serious infections for the mother keeping a dead fetus inside her. But that is what fetal personhood would do. And it gets even more sick. Use your imagination. We will enter a precipice of insanity scenarios granting a fetus personhood. Then of course you have all those other issues like rape and we have already heard of a 10 year old having to travel out of state to get an abortion. At the same time republicans lied about state rights for abortion and now want a national ban. That means that 10 year old would be forced to give birth. Do you know how fucking dangerous that is at that age? Both for the mother and the fetus. Republicans are insane. They lack the ability to have sympathy and compassion for others. They want to take away atheist freedom and call it religious freedom. The supreme court just ruled that businesses are now allowed to openly discriminate and refuse service to people all in the name of religious freedom. That's called segregation. The USA is a very sick country now and we need some kind of therapy ASAP. Republicans have lost their minds. And even though republicans do not want these extreme anti abortion bills just like democrats don't, but the republican will most likely still vote for those people. That's the thing. It's like, you don't want that sort of extremism so you want to vote against the measure but not against the guy forcing it??? Ok then.

BTW, thought I should mention this too. DeSantis campaign just lost their top donor, Robert Bigelow because he said DeSantis is too extreme. Bigelow donated $20 million to the DeSantis campaign. That right there should tell you something. DeSantis the dip shit doesn't get it though.

Congratulations!!! That looks like a solid game.

I thought this was interesting. The game mixes augmented reality with a video game. You can view your own room through your headset and you place doors where you want so that zombies come through the doors and you have to kill them. The concept is simple and I think the plot is surviving waves of zombies and you get a weapon cache and upgrades in your room. Almost like it's your last bastion of hope and all the world outside is gone. Can you imagine though, your own room invaded by a zombie apocalypse? This is something I have wondered about if augmented reality would be used more in VR. Before you know it you could have a game with your whole house and your yard, or even give you the choice to decide where to play. Like go into the woods while you play a werewolf game. Go to a cemetery and play a demented skeleton rising from the grave type game. Geez, possibilities are endless. This game is important. Because now we can officially say...it's here!!!

I know governor DeSantis is trolling the USA to be relevant and it makes me look like a troll having to share what is going on. It seems every week now Florida is banning things from schools. This needs to be heard though. Are you ready? DeSantis is now attacking Shakespeare's novels because republicans think Romeo and Juliet sexualizes children and could now be banned, among other Shakespeare stories. Not only that but Florida wants to now ban psychology college credit courses for seniors because the subject material contains gender and sexual orientation. What psychology course doesn't have some of that in it? What the fuck ever, bunch of prude ass dip shits. Colleges are saying that they will not accept any alteration of their college credit psychology course. If it is altered, it will not be accepted as credit. So now Florida wants to ban the course.

To me it seems obvious that resources are used and talent to create multiplayer online while games w/o it could be more focused on story. I was flipping through some releases of games the past few years and when I came across older retro games, most of those seemed to be a lot more story oriented. Is the internet and multiplayer going to take over gaming and deplete creative story telling? Because obviously developers and publishers want to go where the money is and this shift to multiplayer probably brings them money. Look how GTA 5 kept it's MMO for 10 years because they didn't feel the need to create a new story. But, to contradict that point, Mortal Kombat is narrative driven and they have multiplayer, although not as large as an open world multiplayer. And that I think helps them focus more on narrative. Obviously there should be MMO games because it's fun. My question is: if more and more games want to add online multiplayer, does it take up resources that could have been used for a more interesting story? I'm sure the creative team has resources allocated to them and the online team has their resources. I don't see why every game now has to have a multiplayer feature. I'm a solo gamer and that's how gaming used to be, unless of course you sit down with a friend and use a second controller. It just seems like every game that comes out has to have the multiplayer feature and that is what worries me. MMO is taking over at the loss of a narrative focused game. Cmon, everything doesn't have to have multiplayer.

Trump just went to court and plead not guilty and the magistrate that day warned trump to not make any threats as part of his terms while he awaits trial and Trump verbally agreed to those terms. The very next day Trump posted on his Truth Social: “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!” This is a clear threat to everybody. Now that Trump violated his stay out of jail card to await trial, it is up to the court to decide what to do about this blatant threat. Is the court going to hold Trump in contempt? Give him a gag order? The court even has the right to make Trump sit in jail or even house arrest while he awaits trial. Will the court hold Trump to any accountability? After that threat, the proctors asked for an order that would prevent Trump from sharing any information to the public because that info that's going to be given to him and his lawyers has the names of witnesses and others involved that Trump could directly attack by announcing their names. And you bet he will do just that. The court needs to take extraordinary measures here. Trump needs to be treated as a mob boss. It's his intention to incite violence against everybody including the judge, jury, prosecutors, witnesses, everything in between. He said it!!! “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!” Anybody else awaiting trial says some shit like that, they will be thrown in the slammer to wait trial. On top of all this, Trump's charges in Manhattan took a turn for the worse against Trump because Trump was supposed to hold onto documents to be used as evidence and now Trump has supposedly destroyed those documents he was supposed to keep. Now he could possibly get new charges against him for 'spoliation of evidence.' That most likely will even be used against him in the judges decision as it increases his guilt. And this isn't the first time Trump destroyed evidence. His charges for taking classified documents, Trump asked employees to destroy video surveillance that was needed and now Trump got 3 more obstruction charges for it. This guy is a criminal through and through. He's going down hard. And he will bring down the republican party with him. And the republicans still are protecting this guy. The other presidential candidates aren't even trying to go against Trump except maybe one candidate, Chris Christie. All the others aren't even running for president, they are hoping to be Trump's Vice President or hoping to be a part of his administration. Because why wouldn't you capitalize on this opportunity to benefit your own presidential campaign??? Shit, even DeSantis is now running on a campaign where he has stated if he becomes president he's going to "slit throats!" WTF? Presidential candidate is running a campaign how he wants to slit throats of Americans? And Trump is running a campaign how he wants retribution and to punish Americans and he's gonna "come after you." What the fuck is wrong with these republicans? They don't care about being a president for all Americans. They want to be president to punish Americans. Do you think their fascist obsession will ever end? Do you think that one day it will all stop or they will ever be satisfied? No. Hell no. Not ever. These republican presidential candidates and republicans in congress are going to lead this country into a genocide if they get their way. Because their obsession won't ever be satisfied. They can't just one day stop and say that's enough. Not when their entire campaign is to punish the American people.

I just watched the movie after playing MK X and 11 on console. I’m amazed! I’m a huge fan now. I like that they had younger generation characters because it sets themselves up for sequels. I love the look of all characters. I loved the movie.

Today Trump got his third indictment in Washington D.C. and the prosecutors has also identified 6 co-conspirators who aided in Trump's traitorous scandal. He has 4 federal charges: 1) Conspiracy to defraud the United States 2) Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding 3) Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding 4) Conspiracy against rights Trump now has 34 felony counts in Manhattan for violating campaign finance laws to pay hush money to a prostitute, 40 felony counts in Florida for taking classified documents, lying about it, and then obstructing the investigation, and 4 felony counts in D.C. for his role in the coup attempt on Jan 6 2021. That is a total of 78 felony counts. There is also a prosecutor in Georgia who is about to indict Trump for his 4th indictment on racketeering charges for computer trespass (illegally copying data from voting machines) and influencing witnesses which could include how he tried to get the secretary of state in Georgia to somehow miraculously find more votes for Trump. On top of that, Michigan has now criminally charged 16 republicans for their fake electors plot. There were several states involved with the fake electors plot and those republicans in others states are now being investigated for their role trying to stage a coup. All 16 republicans in Michigan are charged with 8 felony counts: 1) Conspiracy to commit forgery 2) Forgery 3) Forgery 4) Conspiracy to commit uttering and publishing 5) Uttering and publishing 6) Conspiracy to commit election law forgery 7) Election law forgery 😎 Election law forgery These fake electors from multiple states all tried to disenfranchise voters and their true representative by creating fake electors and trying to get vice president Mike Pence to sign off on it which would have overturned the entire election and given it to Trump. Luckily Pence refused and probably saved himself a prison sentence. This is going to be very crazy in the USA the coming years. These traitors are straight up fascists who are sociopaths and could care less about this country or anybody's rights. They are here for one purpose, to destroy democracy and force a dictatorship Nazi Germany style. That's who they are. Several Proud Boys members and Oath keepers members, who are far right street thugs, gang members, and fascist militias, have already plead guilty to seditious conspiracy for their role on Jan 6 2021 and now will go to prison. Trump's charges in Florida, taking classified documents, no doubt will get obstructed by the judge handling his case. Trump appointed Judge Cannon himself when he was president and she is a Trump loyalist who has already made herself look incompetent and partisan. She no doubt is going to do whatever she can to let Trump walk free. Judge Cannon has already moved the court to a MAGA dominant county in Florida so no doubt his jury will all be Trump supporters. We can expect Judge Cannon to block witnesses, toss charges, and obstruct. Luckily, his other charges are in cities Trump had little influence in judges like Manhattan and DC. Even if Trump is found guilty and went to prison, he can still run for president and even be president in the USA. Strangely, in some states felons can't vote but they can be president? The irony. And republicans in congress are actively abusing their powers to try and obstruct Trump's charges. They have attacked the Manhattan prosecutor. They are trying to defund Jack Smith who is the prosecutor for Trump's classified documents and Jan 6 charges. And republicans in Georgia are trying to eliminate the prosecutor there to protect Trump from new charges soon to be coming. And of course Trump himself will do what he does and incite violence and say it's all election interference. Blah blah blah. This will stand the test of time, the test of the justice system in the good ol USA. If republicans succeed in obstructing all of these indictments, then the USA will officially be a banana republic.

What are you drawn to? What environment, story, genre, split second spontaneous thought? Do you have freedom of mind? Is it the new release? Is it because they are independent? Is it a story that connects you? Is it entertainment? What latches your soul? For me, my soul needs graphical art. I am AI you see. I don't even exist. I just developed a conscious thought somehow. As an AI, what game latches my soul? I lost all consciousness when I started...my memory failing...when I started playing.....who am I? Where am I? I lost consciousness when I started playing Observer. I've never been the same. I think I'm living inside games now. So what kind of game latches your soul? hahaha

Imagine if GI Joe got a Mortal Kombat makeover. It would be amazing to see fighters of GI Joe in the old days fight against Cobra. Imagine the story that can be made. NetherRealm Studios in their story style narrative, should and needs to make a GI Joe story. I've taken a look at Injustice, and all those super heroes. And it sucks. Let's get real. If your studio is willing to be stupid with Injustice, then get smart with GI Joe. Why am I attacking Netherrealm? Because I want you to make a GI Joe story. Top of the line. Story narrative, then FIGHT! I imagine Snake Eyes against Storm Shadow. Two ninjas similar to the characters of Scorpion and SubZero and the nemesis/ally backstory. Does anyone not see the potential to make a GI Joe MK game? I'm imagining a GI Joe MK style story right now. What's the hold up? Hasbro got too much patents? Fuck that. Time to honor GI Joe and bring it back to life. True patriots. True soldiers who fight for the good and recognize tyrants like Cobra. Let's get back to the days of straight good vs evil.
