Thinking of buying this to play Paradox games while I wait for the chunks in between my university classes

Its pretty weak man, i would look around more. A 2 core cpu now adays is pretty whack. And the Vega 3 igpu has to be pretty weak. I was on Vega 8 igpu and i was barely playing most stuff. So i really doubt the Vega 3 could do much but idk it might be enough for paradox games. But tbh i am sure you can find a better deal then something HP. Look at Lenovo they usually have really good prices and are decent quality.
Will do

Here you go!

Shame, I needed that 6 months ago! I just got a simple acer laptop with an SSD that suits my note taking needs well. Thanks though

Definitely seemed close at first but LSU steadily used more Coach O voodoo to secure the bag. GG

The only winner from an Iranian conflict is China. In fact, China wins in every scenario. The dragon only grows stronger as the eagle grows weaker fighting useless wars for oil in an economy that is trying to shift away from it.

Do you all think a Clone Wars style animated series set in the new trilogy would help make the story better? I was asking my friends this as I would argue that TCW animated series really helped give a lot of characters interesting arcs that we didn't see in the films.

Spoiler
im just happy I got to hear Ashley eckstein (ahsoka) and Jennifer hale (aayla) :)
also it was never explained how Palpatine survived and nice job completely negating anakins sacrifice, very cool!
AND FUCKING RIP SNAP WEXLEY LITERALLY THE ONLY GOOD CHARACTER TO COME FROM THIS SHITSHOW OF A NEW TRILOGY
he was the main character of the books and they just killed him off like no big deal not salty at all I swear!!
4/10 only for ahsoka and aayla, two redeeming parts. I did like Luke’s force ghost scene though

Really wanted to see Hayden Christenson's force ghost come back but alas, Disney would never make a good decision. Voice lines aren't enough

Judging by the reviews, I'm not too sure if I want to watch IX in theatre.

I mean seriously, The Old Republic cinematics told better stories than this garbage.
My friends and I are torn: We hate Disney and the new trilogy, but we also don't want to get it spoiled as we know they will be everywhere.

I recently attended an LB with the LG after years of inactivity and it's definitely a whole new world. When I last attended the LG, Russian and Waste still had a pretty commanding aura, but this time around it was like the teamspeak was always chatty and I couldn't even hear the orders a lot. This is a far cry from the priority speaker times of older regiments and no chatting until the round was over.

I personally just attribute it to the fact that we were all a lot younger with way more time to devote to games. You had leaders who were really interesting and intriguing and friendships that kept you on teamspeak all day. I remember hanging with Karth, Tico, Mack, etc. Each one had a really cool style of leading that each suited their players strengths and weaknesses.

As pointed out earlier, I think updates would have helped, or better yet, changing the meta to keep the competitive scene changing. Look at CSGO for an example on how simple meta changes have brought fundamental changes to the game that kept people interested.
