One Day Rentals: Just Cause 4

So I have decided to start a thing where I'll rent a game or movie from the Redbox machine where I work -for a day- and review it for my blog.

So, I don't normally bitch about graphics, but Just Cause 4 is an UGLY game. I play on Xbox One (first-generation 500gb model, came bundled with a physical copy of the LEGO Movie game) and once I passed the opening mission, the game got ugly in a damn hurry. I'm talking about a nauseating amount of antialiasing, more artifacts than in your average Tomb Raider game, Headache-inducing FOV, and lipsynching in cutscenes that leave a LOT to be desired.

Don't get me wrong, the parachute-and-grapple mechanic works more beautifully than I remember from JC3, and the 40gb download is a relief compared to its predecessor's titanic hard-drive-clearing 150gb, but a game from late 2018 should not look this awful

Top games of 2018

2018 was a pretty great year; Anthrocon, Wedding, moving, AnthrOhio at a new location, meeting Maile Flanagan and Charisma Carpenter at Wizard World Comic Con here in Columbus, all the while I took time to enjoy me some games, here are my favorites

Red Dead Redemption 2

I didn't buy Red Dead 2, I wasn't even looking forward to *shudders* hi-def horse testicles, but god bless my Roommate for installing Red Dead 2 on my Xbox. It is the most impressive game I've played all year and it plays really well. Sure, I find glitches in the game on an almost weekly basis, but Rockstar Games knocked it out of the park with this one! In my opinion, GAME OF THE YEAR!

Far Cry 5

Far Cry 5 had a forgettable story and the ending was an anticlimax, but the Arcade player-made maps and DLC more than made up for it.

Jurassic World Evolution

It's no secret I'm a fan of Jurassic Park, so the spiritual successor to what I consider to be the best Jurassic Park game (Jurassic Park Operation Genesis) was something I looked forward to. It didn't completely disappoint, and I'm hoping Frontier can keep it fresh for at least until the next Jurassic World movie comes out.

Fallout 76

I was really looking forward to Fallout 76, even Preordered it in order to participate in the B.E.T.A. I really should've taken the BETA's limited-time play periods as a clue to this Tire Fire of a game.

2018 Goal: Anthrocon

So last year, due to certain events, I had to duck out on my plans to attend Anthrocon. This year, I'm hoping to visit Pittsburgh for Anthrocon. For real this time. I've got the Vacation days set aside, I got Dack's bodysuit finished last year. Not gonna jinx myself again.

🚨 The internet needs you 🚨

You’re up again, Tumblr. 

Back in 2015 you demanded that the FCC adopt strict net neutrality rules and establish a free and open internet. And you won. 

That should’ve been the end of it. But apparently not.

The new head of the FCC wants to undo the net neutrality protections you fought so hard for.

His proposed changes open the door to your web traffic being slowed down, or even blocked altogether. You could be forced to pay extra to use your favorite apps. You could even be prevented from getting news from the sources you trust.

Title II protects consumers and democracy by ensuring all voices can be heard.

You know the drill. Here’s what to do:

The FCC is taking comments from the public, and dearfcc.org is making it as simple as possible for you to make your voice heard.

Go there now 👉 dearfcc.org ✌️

You’ll just need to provide a name, an address, and then say a little bit about why rolling back Title II protections is a bad idea. If you’re not quite sure what to write, here’s something to get you started:

I’m writing to urge you to keep our Open Internet rules based on Title II in place. Without them, we could lose the internet as we know it.

The proposed changes to FCC rules would allow fast lanes for sites that pay, and force everyone else into slow lanes. We’ve already seen access to streaming services like Netflix, popular games like League of Legends, and communication platforms like FaceTime slowed down, or even blocked. Conditions like this hurt businesses large and small, and penalize the users who patronize them. 

The changes also open the door to unfair taxes on internet users, and could also make it harder for blogs, nonprofits, artists, and others who can’t pay up to have their voices heard.

Please leave the existing net neutrality rules based on Title II in place.

Thank you!

If you need more ammo, feel free to quote these experts from our net neutrality Issue Time. TechCrunch and Battle for the Net also have some good starters.

Everyone is counting on everyone else here. Do your part and tell the FCC to keep a free and open internet under Title II.

“Fursuiting has a certain dimming effect on one’s senses.

My senses aren’t razor sharp on the best day, so cover me in fur, take away a good portion of my hearing and vision, and I become a tad ineffectual in navigating the world around me.

Rambling up the pier on a sunny Sunday, I became aware of a  sudden heaviness in my right leg.“Uh oh,” I thought. “Stroke.”

Upon closer examination, I discovered that my difficulty walking was not caused by a blood clot, but rather this young man who had anchored himself to my side.

Relieved, I patted his head, gave him the happy paws and looked around for the camera. Surely his parents were taking pictures of their giddy son and the giant canine.

It was then I realized that he was sobbing, and no cameras, let alone parental units, were in evidence.

Dogs I understand. Children are a mystery to me. Worried that I had crushed his little foot, or smacked him with my tail, I asked him what was the matter.

“I can’t find my daddy!” He said between hiccups. “That’s OK,” I said. ‘I’ll sniff him out for you.“ "Really? You promise?” He gripped me tighter and brightened a little. “Of course! I’m a search and rescue dog. No problem.”

He grinned and held my paw and I then realized that I had better locate pops post haste or the kid would grow up not to trust talking dogs. I couldn’t have that.

We walked slowly up the pier, searching for daddy, both trying to smile for the tourists. Little Carlos related that his papa had been fishing, but had moved to a new spot on the rail. The kid had walked over to look at a seagull, and somehow lost track of  his dad’s position. I wagged. I was looking for a guy fishing from the pier, and that narrowed my search to only a few hundred blokes. Piece of cake.

“What does your daddy look like?” I asked. “He’s wearing a white t-shirt.” Carlos offered. I looked around. So were 90% of the others fishing.

Sensing that I needed more information, he thought hard for a moment. “He fishes with squid!” He exclaimed, convinced that hunk of knowledge would lead us to pops like no other.

We walked up and down the pier. Twice. Carlos started to cry again, and I felt a peculiar mix of compassion, panic and failure. What if we never found his dad? I’d have to raise him as my own. Where would he sleep? What do kids eat? Kids grow up so fast. How could I afford shoes and tiny fursuits every 6 months?

Just when we were both about to dissolve into sobbing puddles,a frantic man came running towards us, brandishing a fishing rod and a look of profound relief. I’ll never forget it.

“Mijo!” He exclaimed, scooping up the kid and hugging him so tightI thought he might pop. They were both crying and smiling and a flood of relief washed over me. I wouldn’t have to worry about making pint sized DTD’s after all….

Carlos Sr. shook my paw vigorously and thanked me again and again for taking the time to help his boy. He had no idea howthey became separated, but a nice lady on the end of the piertold him that a talking dog was wandering around with a lost kiddo.At least I was easy to spot.

As father and son resumed their day of pescatory bliss, I feltlike a very good dog. Crisis averted, I continued my stroll, heading decidedly for the watering hole with the coldest beer. 

I may not be much of a search and rescue dog, but I felt like it at that moment.“

Temporary Ref sheet for Dack. I'm planning on commissioning a friend for one that doesn't look like total crap
