@Zemo55 Yeah sorry mate, the meaning of words change, and its meant in good fun; pom is used frequently on broadcast television. The Guardian puts it in headlines, not something you do with slurs I found this article quite helpful:
@KilloWertz, you are entitled to your opinion, mate, but it's just that, doesn't make someone else's invalid or a lie I think the quote illustrates a sentiment a lot of players are feeling. Glad you are enjoying the game!
@riceNpea @naruball brought in my much smarter wife, and we Googled it; who seems to be correct, but now I've overthought it all. Appreciate the close read haha
@nessisonett, it's generally pretty good here these days; this and South Park: Stick of Truth are probably the most high-profile examples, and that was back in 2013 before we had an R18+ rating.
@TheAmbienWalrus Yeah, sorry, mate, as both an Australian and a Queenslander specifically, I promise you my arachnophobia is entirely justified. I've had a dinner-plate-sized huntsman, audibly spitting in anger, jump off a wall and onto my face before getting caught in my hair. Google at your peril!
Sadly, that's kind of a deal breaker for me, at least until a potential PS5 Pro upgrade patch is released. 30fps is still the reason I never got around to playing the original or Dark Arisen, just can't do it anymore.
@Amusei @Tecinthebrain @Yaycandy Plot twist: I'm from Australia. Some of our most beloved national heroes were convicted criminals; my ancestors certainly were
@zhoont Yeah I'm pretty intrigued to see what they can do. Vampyr was definitely rough around the edges, but it had some really interesting mechanics and concepts, hoping for more of that!
@dark_knightmare2 Call me old-fashioned, but I'd probably still give GOAT status to Baldur's Gate 2 haha. But both Pathfinder games were great, you're right, and I can't wait for this either
@Brydontk Definetly not just you, still the biggest issue the genre is facing on console. I think its sloooowly getting better, but still a long way to go haha
