So the kid will make a fake name with a fake account, probably with a cartoon character as a picture.

Former agent shot and killed last night while walking his dog.

Y'know, I've worked a lot of different places and never had a co-worker killed. I think this is the 5th agent that's died since I've been here (one cancer, one plane crash, one murder-suicide, one friendly fire death while off-duty, and now this).  :-[

Cyberdyne power armor.
I think there were some Canadians working on a suit of power armor from the Military. A B.E.A.R. Suit, I think it was called.

Yeah, that's right. The first Spartans will be from Canada.

Is it just me, or does that look like some armor out of Mass Effect?  ???
Low armor value, good environmental protection.

Dunno.  I always associated it with random maps more than anything.  I guess its a hard term to nail down.

Typcially randomized levels and permadeath where you start the entire game over once you die is what defines a roguelike.

I've noticed quite a few people now seem to think that permadeath=roguelike.

When was this the case?

Permadeath is a roguelike feature, but not necessarily a critical and defining rogue like feature.

Also top-down view and a focus on exploration in pursuit of rpg character building opportunities.  It's hard for me to consider something a roguelike without those things.

A secretary says she has awesome "Gay-dar." I am right in front of her: it's not going off at all.

She then starts talkin' about "teh gays."

Either she's got no gaydar or I'm that camouflaged

character building opportunities are something I do not associate with Roguelike at all, unless you mean gaining XP / levels.

@Truean, you're probably so gay her gay-dar assumed there must be an error somewhere and didn't report it to her.

Her gaydar thinks gayness is a straight line when really it's more like a sine wave. She's not detecting you because you're not at a multiple of pi.
