I miss it so much.

I only have it on PS4 so I can't even get 2.0 + Phantom Liberty till I can afford a new gaming computer. Even using the old systems it's such a great game.

The characters are very thoughtfully written, the atmosphere is top notch, and the themes of control and power are well reflected in the main plot and a host of side quests.

The neighborhoods all feel like unique parts of a whole, and the surprising verticality of the city makes it fun to explore, especially once you get legs upgrades.

Bikes are more fun than cars, so definitely be thinking of Akira and stick to 2 wheels when you can. Shooting people through walls or around corners is pretty fun, as is rebooting people's eyes or taking over the heavy turret of some unsuspecting defenders.

When we kill CEOs it's domestic terrorism. When they kill us it's suicide.

It's clever, catchy and appropriate for the historical moment.

When an illegitimate fascist coup accuses you of domestic terrorism, it's because you're doing the right thing.

I'm not racist, some of my best slaves are black.

This decision is an abuse of the legal system. It's not a legitimate judgement and greenpeace should refuse to comply.

Standing up to the illegimate russian regime's attempts to kill americans on medicaid and social security is not riskier than normalizing fascism.

Incorrect. This will make our government's imperialist invasions much easier, since our government is an extension of the russian state and the US military can only possibly get in their way.

On the contrary, they assumed that grossly unfit morons would have mass appeal and that's why the constitution has so many provisions to make sure that popular will is not reflected at the ballot box.

They hoped that the rich would not elect a grossly unfit traitor, which all of history shows is a laughably stupid assumption.

The person that you are now is not the person that you would be if you grew up in that situation.

That me is a stranger to this me I have no basis to guess what that stranger might do.

The existence of professional sports teaches children how to arbitrarily hate people by sorting them according to team support.

You imagine a world too beautiful for humans.

Sport sucks, it's boring and teaches kids how to sort people into us vs them based on arbitrary nonsense.

But like belief in divine agency, it's presence across most societies throughout history probably means it's just unfortunately a part of the human experience.

Edit: "men in womens sports": this is absolute garbage that doesn't happen and being worried about it marks you as gullible, hateful and ignorant.
