Wolfenstein 2009 getting a potential remaster and shadow dropping during the next Quakecon wasn't on my bingo card, but I'll take it! This is hands down my favorite Wolfenstein game of all time so I really hope it's true.
🔴🟢 A wall. One inscription.
Freedom saw it as a threat. Duty called it a provocation.
The bar has once again become a place where everyone speaks quieter, but listens closer.
D4 still holds, but old disputes have already crawled out from under the concrete, paint, and dust.
And if the factions have started speaking in slogans — it's time for stalkers to answer with their own.
Faction Slogan Contest.
Pick a side: Duty or Freedom. (https://t.co/BxPEcOSTaU)
Write a slogan that could lead your favorite faction forward. Winners are competing for the prizes of exclusive S.T.A.L.K.E.R. figurines and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope keys.

My hot take is that treating the armor like it was vehicle is sick as fuck and actually reflects the in-game mechanics of the suit and how it works. It also added complexity in a game that lacked it.

Australia is planning some of the world's toughest AI regulations
• Water usage will be limited
• AI data centers will be required to become net producers of energy
• AI companies can't train on Australian creators' work without their permission
• Proposals expected to be introduced as legislation in 2027
“Australian writers, musicians, artists and journalists must retain ownership and control of their work. Our laws will spell that out, plain as day ... anything less is theft"
Finally decided to play ranked past Fujin. Im raijin now and on a 12 win streak with Paul. I just dont really have the drive to be bothered to go further till Bob releases.
