Thank god we have the Reassuring Sanity Creatures, and the Avatar of Order, Law and Peace.
At least one of those is disappearing next turn.

Got to the last strip of order of the stick.

Now I have to wait for the updates! :(
Shame about that thumb injury, isn't it?
Well, I never knew about the thumb.

DAMN YOU BROKEN GLASS!
Fixed it for you.

Butchering is sometimes a good thing.

Can't really have filet mignon if it's still attached to the cow, yanno!
I beg to differ.

"Well, he got nailed to a stick, and - wait a minute."
Xantalos turns to the GM.
"Why do we need to kill Morgan Freeman? Answer me!"
(Could I get a mini-response in between turns, for dialogue stuff? I need to figure out some stuff.)

Create everything. Wonder why.

I don't think he's upset that it was killed by the Thailand police.  I think he's more upset about the reason. Littering?
Halt! Criminal scum!
Yep.
THE APOCALYPSE IS HERE
THEY'RE FUCKING LITTERING

The problem with bad satire is that you can just interpret it as satire of bad satire.
It's written completely seriously, unfortunately.

33353
Are you sure it wasn't supposed to be a satire? That sound like a satire to me.
Some other random guys' opinion on it. He must be validated!
You can do a satire extremely badly. And last I checked Salvation war was either an extremely bad military boner stroking fiction or a bad satire. But given the quality it doesn't really matter if it's either.
Yep.

Anyone here ever read The Salvation War? I got it recommended to me, but I couldn't read it after I realized that it was basically FUCK YEAH MURICA KICKS ASS WIHT TEKNOLOGEE.
Some highlights:
1. Every weapon is described in excessive detail, saying exactly how it dismembers the enemy, yet the demons basically seem to be humans with red skin.
2. A messenger demon sent to herald the apocalypse to humans - keep in mind they're 20 feet tall - is killed by Thailand police ...for littering.
3. Bill Clinton somehow knows how to tell if a succubus is a real woman or not and casually kills one with a shotgun he pulls out of nowhere. BILL. CLINTON.

Overall, teh oomanz win easily and there's no excitement in the book because you know the demons lose because MURICA.
In essence, I didn't like it.

Aaaaahhh EA. You probably wonder why most people with a brain cell hate you.
Couldn't be the ending; that TOTALLY made sense.
I just realized something. What ME3 needed was a good old case of Old Man Henderson.

Oh, one advantage of ME 3:
It caused a shitfest among the homophobes.
Not to mention ME1.

"Probably some mages developing some revolutionary spell or some such. We go in there, kill 'em, grab whatever they were working on, and get out.
