The first time I saw it mentioned I thought it was a bit but you've referenced it too many times for that to be the case and now I'm DYING to know what the DPRKOS is

I've been enjoying it, but I think it's more because I grew up playing Bethesda RPGs and it's a familiar format in a new setting than anything special with starfield itself. I've been finding the pacing is way too quick as well, I'll spoiler just in case

spoilerThe game sends you to a planet called new Atlantis and has you explore for a bit, get into a lil cutscene, and go off to the next location. In terms of what you actually do there it felt comparable in content to when you bring the tablet to dragonsreach in Skyrim and you get word about a dragon attacking.

Then you get sent to Mars. Since it's a planet in our solar system I was kinda expecting it's first appearance to be a little more important, but you end up saying a handful of words to an NPC and sent off somewhere else. Even compared to the typical Skyrim or Fallout 3 (the ones I played the most) location introduction it was incredibly short.

The Bethesda RPG formula has been "go to location, talk to NPC, go to new location, fight enemy, return" for a while, but with starfield it's starting to feel more like a fast travel simulator with combat minigames. I'm still really early in the game so I'm holding out hope that it gets a little more involved but knowing the state of big RPG releases the past few years I'm not optimistic.

This point is unironically what ultimately made me start learning about communism. When I still had basically no understanding of politics I brought up how there's more than enough food to feed everyone to a friend and he said "well if we did feed everyone that would be communism" as a dumb gotcha

To combat this I set the packages directly across from wherever I'm cooking, instruction side facing me.

Remembering to throw it out after though??? Impossible task.

Do you think these rounds just magically disappear after they're used? They're going to continue to litter the land and cause generations of people completely uninvolved in the conflict to suffer from birth defects, lung damage, and cancer, as can be seen after its use in Iraq. No one is immune to depleted uranium. At this point you can just admit that you care more about killing Russians than you do defending Ukraine, consequences be damned.

Unironically yes. A peace deal was in the works last year until, according to the Ukranian Pravda, Boris Johnson pressured Zelensky not to go through with it. This would have stopped the fighting and resulted in some withdrawal of Russian troops, but since the West is more interested in weakening their geopolitical rivals and helping the weapons industry rake in profit than ending the war, they squashed any possibility of that happening.

There's this one dub of it where the VA just sounds so frantic and it cracks me up no matter how many times I replay it

It's an option but obtaining the game isn't the problem. I already have a good few hours into it but out of my friends that are planning on getting it, one is waiting to upgrade his PC and the other just got a bunch of games and wants to get through some of those first
