There was a LOT of hype that they never achieved too, and tons of content shown off in trailers and previews that never made the game.

The train was very much a playable area in previews, not in the game, taxis were shown, but also not in the game. The population density is much lower, and (of course) emergent npc behaviour (a random NPC actually going to a bar to play pool, or basketball, instead of just standing there. Robberies just occurring) isn't nearly as amazing as promised. There were supposed to be more classes that never appeared, and the life path system was shown to be much bigger than just the three skill check options in dialogue that made it into the game.

Mostly, I believe that's just players being super upset and hunting down every "broken promise" because the game was a buggy mess instead of the second coming.

Yep, this is a huge fucking problem.

Top bad the often proposed suggestion of "let's just skip right to the end" isn't actually a solution.

Wow, they made Warcraft look like a flash game...

Person A wants to kill 1 million people.

Person B wants to kill 50 million people.

You: "what's a trolley?"

“Unlike Kamala, I will support Israel's right to win its war on terror. They have to win! And instead of pandering to the Jihad sympathizers and America-hating radicals, we will deport them.”

  • D. Trump, verbatim, on Nov 6th.

But yeah no, this will definitely improve things.

WW2 got 85 million people dead. Now, Japan is also to blame for about a third of those, but a damned large part is on Hitler.

You can move to most European countries and learn the language from the welcoming people there that can switch to English or use a translator if necessary.

Not in the Netherlands. Nobody will speak dutch to you, and will switch to English immediately if they detect an accent.

This sounds rather bad for Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe (https://www.openttd.org/)

I mean, it was not-terrible for most of it (not counting the quality of dialogue), just not this exact scene, which was absolutely fucking terrible, and barely even involved the character in question. I really can't imagine how they thought "Other people should talk about their gender!" was a good idea.

And of course, he's a big fun of Putin.

So, the big evil boss, his name is Hitler?

Yes

And, his second is called... Himmler?

uhhh, yes?

And they both think blonde haired, blue eyed people are the perfect humans?

Mmhhh, correct.

And what do these two people looks like?

Uhhhhh

I mean, converting energy into matte, when you could be using said energy to get home does seem a bit wasteful.

Replicating 1 gram of matter from energy takes 90 TJ, so replicating a sugarcube would be roughly the power of a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
