However, no matter what happens, there will be interrupts and decisions that no one can avoid.  Like the Paragon Tali interupt, Renegade Kai Leng interupt, and punching the reporter in the face.  In ALL the games

This Paragon Shepard never punched the reporter in the face. Instead, he publicly humiliated her on her own show by displaying how much of a no-talent hack she was. Twice.

I have yet to play Renegade enough to avoid hugging Tali 

Wait, you can talk her down in ME2 as well?
Totally doing this.
Also, Garrus.
Best.

I know you can do it as Paragon. Usually my Renegade characters just punch her

[Xantalos]

I've had enough of your misleading rhetoric. *PAWNCH*

I know you can do it in ME1, but not sure about 2 or 3.

[Lightningfalcon]

You can.

[Xantalos]

You can.

Yay!
Jean-Luc Shepard is a go go.

Okay, found the replacement mouse. It's in the shape of a sports(?) car, the too-small buttons are located over a painful hump, and there's two bright-as-fuck lights on it that I can't turn off. My eyes hurt from them, and I'm not looking at them directly. It has an extremely high default sensitivity, and Windows does not have a setting in between too fast and too slow.

And worst of all, it's only a 3-button mouse. I miss being able to go back and forth between folders and webpages with just the touch of a button.

Akura, I might only have a 2.5 button mouse (Not calling the thing a proper 3 button mouse when the middle mouse button only works under heavy pressure), but at least mine isn't a car-shaped lamp.

MY laptop doesn't even have a scrollbar.  How is having a 3 button mouse bad?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I thought I couldn't scroll, but then I found out that the edges of my touchpad are a scroll function. It took me almost three years to discover this, and I still don't use it often.

[Bdthemag]

My laptop is the same way, although I re-formatted my hard-drive a few months ago and I've just been too lazy to re-install the drivers for it. I tried once and that just made it so my touchpad didn't work at all.

I thought I couldn't scroll, but then I found out that the edges of my touchpad are a scroll function. It took me almost three years to discover this, and I still don't use it often.

Often or... at all. I'm pretty sure I've mostly disabled the feature on this computer. Not sure if it can actually be turned off on this one (short of turning off the touchpad entirely), but you can definitely set it to be a minuscule strip of the touchpad that's basically impossible to activate. Which is good enough for me.

Quite frankly, if I can reach the touchpad I can probably reach the spacebar (which generally does page down), the arrow keys, or just the page down on the numpad. All of the which mostly does the same thing... and without having to screw with a bloody touchpad to any extent beyond the hated necessity.

I have to prepare some 'talking material' for a debate for our Tourism Industry classes. The topic is 'Influence of terrorism on tourism.'

The catch? I have to show that terrorism has minimal-to-no impact on tourism :I

It's damned hard nut to crack and I hope that this one debate will not be biased.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Just do what Dubai does: Lie your ass off and pretend that opulence=tourism.

"The good thing this time round is we're investing more in it from a marketing perspective," Kirton said. "With Dark Souls and Demon's Souls, it was very focused, small-scale. We're treating this as a massive, massive triple-A title."

"We're going to go guns blazing with it, and hope to God that it works," Kirton said. "We're going after people who love and adore Dark Souls, while hopefully widening the net a little. I'm not saying that every Skyrim player's going to be jumping on Dark Souls, but it would be nice if some of them did. It's a different game, sure."

Fucking hell... no... please don't... just... why!?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I'm not even sure what to think anymore. All the actual gameplay stuff I've seen is good, great, even. But their press releases are just an unending avalanche of horrifically concerning statements.

Fortunately, this is just marketing. It wouldn't be the first time an amazing game had shit marketing (*cough*Earthbound*cough*).

This makes me happy my hardware suck so the only games I'll ever play are classics~
