    How fitting to put Tyranny on this list. Sometimes, evil wins.....

    Also, to note, I believe that the Anniversary patch for D3 is on the PTR today, so you can play D1 while you cry.

    EvE is full of politics.  That was one of the basic tenets that can even be found in it's name; Empire vs Empire.

    Sarcasm is hard on the Internet. :D

    Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

    Yes, but the major problem with EVE is that it's impossible to build walls in space. 

    Speaking of walls. Thanks for crashing Canada's immigration site last night. However, for anyone wanting to seek refuge illegally, I can store one family who can live in a 10x10 closet. We're calling it the underground railwall.

    Should make a list on how to forget the next 4 years.

    Pretty sad list IMO.

    I'm going to have to concur with Horusra

    Happily playing Vanilla and BC WoW, again, since September 2016.

    That reminds me, I need to copyright a sarcasm font pronto!

    I'll call it Bartoni Facetious. It will resemble a less douchy Comic Sans.

    A list of horror games would have be more fitting imo. Anyway, I wish you all the very best overthere and hopefully it works out well for you and the rest of the world.

    Too bad no one has made a game out of Idiocracy - that would have been perfect :)

    Top 5 games in general for me right now in no particular order would be:
    Rust
    Tower Unite
    Killing Floor 2
    SW Battlefront(DICE)
    H1Z1
    The acronym MMORPG use to mean Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game.

    But the acronym MMMORPG now currently means Microscopic Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game. Kappa.

    This makes as much sense as what happened last night.

    Too soon?

    Or just play one - Neverwinter - after that everything else doesn't look so bad.

    On a broader note - What the heck have you guys done across the pond. Thought our brexit was the omg moment, but you've gone and literally Trumped it.

    Think he'd make a good raid boss:
     - all female characters get an immediate debuff
    - at 50% health he spawns an fbi mini-boss that hits you for nothing, but makes him invulnerable.

    Main mechanics:-
    Hair-whip -  frontal cone that blinds anyone standing in the aoe.
    Wall block - pens the affected player in

    Hillary as a raid boss would be Play to Win if you want to even get in the room with her.

    I'd say;
    GW2
    Splinter Cell Chaos Theory (Currently replaying)
    ESO
    MH (Hyped by Dr. Strange movie)
    WoW (I know, I know, don't hate the player hate the game. :awesome: )
