I’ve lived next to these things several times over my life; they’re stunning engineering achievements of humanity.

I like to envisage the power above me arriving at a hospital, and that beep beep beep of the electrocardiograph, puffing of the ventilators, pumping of the dialysis machines; all from metal we took from he earth and shaped into a church like structure, pointing to the heavens, but enabling us to play God and save lives.

Jump in there and raise it yourself. Share your thoughts and what attempts to potential decipher it you’re aware of. Independent Raxxla Hunters, are by the name, independent. So if you want traction and discussion, you need to be the one to bring it.

Great find by the way.

You should try over at the Independent Raxxla Hunters discord. Far more understanding and ready to engage in any amount of tinfoil than Canonn.

Research indicates male and female immune systems respond differently to viral attacks.

“Man Flu” might actually be physiological and not psychological.

This is the review I was looking for. Huge H1 and HoH fan but H2 was a big swing and a miss. So glad to hear HoH2 is a return to form. Thanks for sharing.

Oh that’s understandable. Most MMO games, at least in the past before the rise of F2P, had monthly subscriptions (often in addition to needing to buy the base game).

Not sure if this is a joke or not… WoW was always a subscription game-as-a-service.

That’s the part I’m asking “why” about.

I totally get you but my rather elderly father loves 3D games - they’ve put hundreds of hours into Skyrim at this point haha. Could never get comfortable with keyboard and mouse but took to a gamepad incredibly quickly.

Sometimes a theme like fantasy or history can be the catalyst to give something the time and patience to learn it. My old man was a huge LOTR fan back in the day (the books especially) and thus the desire to play Skyrim was enough for him to suffer through learning a gamepad and analogue sticks.
