That's interesting that you thought split fiction was harder than it takes two. My partner and I thought the opposite, since split fiction seems to let you get away with skipping a lot of things when one of you is dying (i.e. checkpoint reached by one player counts for both of you). In saying that my other theory is my partner has actually gotten better at games since we played it takes two.

It's a joke reference to sellers who will list items for very cheap, but with very high postage costs, to try to trick people into viewing their product more favourably. Nothing actually wrong in this instance.

Jusant is cool. Deck runs kinda loud but the gameplay is very enjoyable on controller.

Oblivion was released on consoles and had great controller layouts. I played it for years on PS3. Not sure if Morrowind has a similar experience.

It's a personal computer. Being in a different form factor does not change that.

I think we can request to vote by post although I'm not really sure. We can vote early in person though, and many people do

Eh, not fucking things up in the way that seems to happen in the states. Our conservative government is much more corporate oriented and less strong on climate policy, but they aren't insane. They don't tend to strip rights from women, and almost the entire party supported gay marriage legalisation with many openly stating they personally disagreed with it but understood that their constituents needs should come before their own opinions.

Edit: I guess to expand upon my point, mandatory voting means candidates need to run on a platform which considers the needs of the whole population. Optional voting means that if 50% of the population doesn't turn up, and 30% of the remaining population feels very strongly about an extreme view, it becomes easier for that extreme view to win an election.

You are allowed to cast an empty ballot, or write in a candidate who isn't running. You just have to participate. When you go, you get marked off an electoral roll. Those people who don't show up get a fine in the mail of something like a couple of hundred dollars. Not bad in isolation but this applies to state, federal and local elections so about 3 times in a 3-5 year period, for something which takes all of 15 minutes out of your day.
