why? yeah he was an arrogant loudmouth, but so's julian assange. most of his pet causes were and in many cases still are totally legitimate

I've been playing EYE - Divine Cybermancy a lot lately, honestly think a fair few of you guys would like it.
short description: if Deus Ex was French and forgot to take it's seroquel.
longer: cyberpunk source FPS/RPG with broken, but understandable english. massive levels with lots of secret areas and missions that reward and rely on exploration. weird cyberpunk vs spacemarines aesthetic. a lot of ideas taken from Ghost in the Shell too - you can hack turrets, people, doors etc, and if you fail they have a chance to hack you back and ruin your day (it's entirely possible to try to hack a door, fail, then have it hack you back, fuck up your vision and break your legs).
storyline makes zero sense unless you make the effort to run through the multiple endings and talk to everyone you can.
it's got the traditional RPG stats like strength, agility, accuracy etc. where you can move faster with bigger guns, aim more precisely etc as you level up by killing things and completing missions, but it's also got a few/lot other areas you can develop your character as well:
bionics: you can use the money you collect during/for completing missions to upgrade somethhing like 10 different parts of your body - upgrading legs lets you run fast, move quieter and jump higher, upgrading your adrenal gland lets you sprint longer and regenerate faster, upgrading your chest cavity/ribcage gives you more chest armor and more resistance to toxic air etc.
cybernetics: you can purchase a cloak package which is a lot like the thermoptics in GITS, special vision modules that help see in the dark, sonar modules that let you see through walls etc]
psionics: when you start out, your psi powers are pretty much limited to throwing barrels around with your mind and melting ammo and stuff into health, but as you level up your base powers get stronger to the point where you're throwing buses around to crush bandits and teleporting INSIDE people across the map and exploding them from within
oh yeah, aside from the standard weapons like pistols, battle rifles and sniper rifles you've got a minigun, a fully-automatic grenade launcher, a sword that vaporises people and a hammer that triggers micro nuclear explosions
the only real downside is that after a certain point it's very grindy, you've got to kill a lot of people to get research items to unlock a lot of the cooler stuff, and to make enough money to upgrade your bionics past say, level 3, you'll need to start replaying levels at max difficulty. and there really aren't that many.

for being a bunch of in-jokes and old memes, abandoned neutrons was actually really well-written
better than most webcomics that actually take themselves seriously

I'm sure we can pair you up with someone who's into that sort of thing

usually yes, it's mostly unconscious though so I'm not sure exactly what it is that gives it away.
thinking about it now, writing I deem as feminent is usually more descriptive and specifically more subjectively so - as in the writer describes what they think about an object more than it's actual properties

it's entirely possible. I actually would've expected it sooner considering the US' current economic position, but it's like it keeps getting postponed without any attempt being made to fix the problem
