Just wrapped it. It was an amazing module and story, and while patch 2.0 was annoying, the stories and missions from phantom liberty were amazing.

Dragonlance is a good one.

• Mistborn
• The Uplift Saga
• The Alex Benedict Series

Yeah, that’s what the conservatives love about them. That and all the indoctrination.

Small price to pay for keeping your dream alive!

There’s…a lot…we don’t know about the brain, wow.

And privacy rollbacks through the disasterous patriot act! In reality it was a longstanding wishlist of cop and law enforcement intrusions on the populace that would never otherwise have been enacted. Warrantless searches and wiretaps! Intrusive scans! Data sharing leading to leakage and being prosecuted for crimes unrelated to the warrant!

The passage of the patriot act is the reason that, in my heart of hearts, I can’t completely dismiss 9/11 conspiracy theories. 96% I can, but 4% I look at the patriot act and the wars and I go “hmmm”.

Counterpoint, capitalism has existed for only a few hundred years and yet hunter gatherer societies by and large faded out a few thousand years ago. I’m not saying there’s a magic bullet solution here and/or we should revert to feudalism. But you didn’t make the point you thought you were making.
