  • Just searched, and it looks like you’re correct.

    Also, apparently there’s an episode where Spacely and Cogswell are arguing about real estate and they discuss a rule of Orbit City which requires all buildings to be at least 2200 feet off the ground (I assume from their “bottom”), which would make their homes roughly the top floors of the Burj Khalifa













  • You know, you bring up a really good point, honestly.

    My friend had a similar complaint about Baldurs Gate III.

    “Why so much body horror and gore? When I was growing up and playing DnD, we were never exploring that kind of stuff. DnD can be so much more than just body horror and gore.” Not verbatim, but you get the idea.

    As much as I love BG3, I don’t actually disagree with his sentiment at all.

    There should be an opportunity for people to play similar style of games that aren’t so gory or depressing or both. Not every stealth game needs to be cyberpunk and depressing.


  • System Shock 2 is begging for a remake with actually functioning netcode for multiplayer way more than the original.

    Bioshock would eventually iterate on this, but the RPG systems of System Shock 2 are so, so deep, and I always appreciated that you could still get attacked by enemies while trying to hack machines. It made doing things like hacking feel very dangerous. Bioshock literally pauses time for you it’s so weak by comparison.
