Avowed just came out! Im happy for a little escape from our reality... Visually stunning game! The story is great too. i dont think you need to know Pillars of Eternity 1 & 2 to play this game but it helps gives quests more depth if you know about the Wheel, the Saints War, Woedica, Eothas etc

I just finished Eternal Strands...wow! Talk about exceeding expectations! I wasn't sure if I'd like it, but I haven't been able to put it down since I started. I can't wait to see more from this studio!

“If the Trump administration and Musk’s operation unilaterally gut NOAA, this would be an illegal overreach of presidential authority that will be swiftly challenged in the courts."

incredible to have a president who appears to be speed-running getting impeached, and even more incredible to to have two other branches of government who are just sitting there watching it as if it is actually a livestream which they are unable to impact in any way
