Take off that moomin profile pic mr. “New Viking”
I also just get insane whiplash seeing these guys think Russia is the soy gay antifa country when a couple of years ago people like this were praising Russia for being the last bastion of white Christian Europe and Putin for standing up against the “globohomo menace” or whatever
It really is just this meme except it’s not even their blessed homeland
The cheerleading from these gamer chair warriors is pretty sickening
It’s not a standard evil Rooskies plot. In the prologue Big Boss goes in to extract a formerly defected Soviet rocket scientist, Sokolov, whose defection is actually the real reason for the Cuban Missile Crisis in MGS lore. The US handed him back to the Soviets to end the crisis but Big Boss (called Snake at the time) is sent to get him out after it turns out they are making him construct an advanced nuclear weapon.
The rescue goes wrong and a renegade Soviet colonel (who has lightning powers because MGS) steals Sokolov’s weapon and blows up the research facility with a US-made Davy Crockett portable nuclear weapon that was given to him by Snake’s former mentor who defects to the Soviet Union and promptly kicks Snake’s ass.
Kruschev is furious about an American nuke detonating on Russian soil and demands the Americans go clean up their mess or WWIII is on the table so Snake is sent back to take out the renegade faction, Sokolov’s weapon and his old mentor.
Of course, there’s more plot twists and double crosses but it’s not an average Hollywood dastardly gommulists affair
Because he wanted Big Boss infiltrating the Soviet Union
I think Kojima simply wanted to make a Cold War spy adventure but ALSO had his mind set on jungle survival elements and just… did both.
A South American or South East Asian setting would have more sense and he did eventually pick Nicaragua as the setting of Peace Walker. Guess he just really wanted to have Russians in MGS3
Wait, which side was pressganging unwilling men into its military again
How do you explain the jungle in MGS3 
The Titanic is a legendary ship, but it wasn’t a very good ship
I think it was more that the German noble they wanted to be king declined because he thought that having a German monarch after Germany just got owned in WW1 would probably not be the best way to start a new nation state. I think they even kicked around the idea of making some Finnish politician king instead
“From Proto-Finnic *orja (“slave, servant”), from Proto-Finno-Permic *orja, probably borrowed from Proto-Indo-Iranian *áryas (“Aryan”).”
lmao
What about mealworms 
Given how video game studios work, also probably laid off
Oh shit, you’re right! I just saw a bunch of wingdings looking symbols and my eyes clouded over. This’ll save some time in the future, thanks!
More like “retreat interactive VR power fantasies where you punch your boss and have sex with his girlfriend”
The author points out that Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript, co-founder (and ex-CEO) of Mozilla, and founder of Brave, donated 1,000 USD in support of a proposition to ban same-sex marriage.
My impression was Brave got started after he got hoofed out of Mozilla or left on his own accord after the backlash for showing his ass to be a homophobe. Redditor types were of course very angry about this blatant disregard for frozen peaches and jumped onto his new venture in droves

Religious decor is one thing but does it also need to look so kitschy
I think there’s some sort of divide between specific kinds of rightoids and which side of the war they fall on
