If you think about it, Canada, Mexico and Brazil are all United States of America!

Not exactly.

 

The Americas do include Canada, Mexico and Brazil.

 

The United States does not include Canada, Mexico and Brazil nor are they governed by it.

 

Geography is important.

I started playing Baldur’s Gate 3 recently. Weird game, but it’s fun.

If my laptop wasn’t a potato and RAM wasn’t price gouged to shit, I’d like to give that game a shot.

It’s a good game. However, if DnD isn’t your thing, I wouldn’t recommend it.

I've been a (forever) DM for the past 6 years, I've seen a few gameplay and cutscene videos that I think are cool, everyone that I've spoken to about it says it's really good, and I've been wanting to play it since the beta dropped. I'm pretty sure I'll like it, I just can't justify dropping money on a custom rig right now.

 

What's your character build? Also, I heard that the combat becomes a slog at higher levels, but IMO that's kind of an issue with higher level D&D in general.

I never write that they were part of THE USA but that they all a collection of states, united under a federal government in the American continent! Which make them, in a way, united states of america in the literal sense of the title.

Which they are not. They each have their own government. And Brazil is in South America.

That's not how that works. In order to become a state, the countries in question need to be annexed, meaning that they are agreeing to become a state that also follows US federal laws.

OK, then you shouldn't have any problems.

 

I've been messing around with different builds to see which I like more. Right now, I'm a human druid.

I never denied that they have their own government. And South America is still America.

Do you guys realize that the USA is not the only country with states, that possess some self-governance, under a federal government?

I know the US patents thingy is a lot of non-sense, but i don't think you can patent how governments work!

You clearly don’t understand how countries work. Just because two countries exist in the same continent and have states doesn’t make them one and the same. Also, no one patented the idea of states. I have no idea where that came from, but you can’t patent how a country works.

You clearly don't understand how words work! At no point in time, since the birth of this universe did i ever clam that " two countries existing in the same continent and have states are one and the same"! If you reply to me about thing that you assuming i say. Then i will make the same about you!

I get what you’re saying. It’s that I don’t care. Everything you said made no sense from the beginning.

There's a decent modding scene that's been around since the game released and there is nsfw BG3 sub-forum here on LL.

 

I played the most over-hyped game of all time in early access and when it released.  I used mods to make the game use 5th Edition rules rather than the silly Larian offering.

I was looking at the site and saw an animated model of a Russian model and it welll got to me. Today I saw a chubby redhead on AI art and I fell l in love symbolically.

I will be 69 years old on March 27th and I  am on the max dose of an antidepressant. And yes I have been to psychologists and psychiatrists. They can't turn back time or raise the dead.

I am a lonely old man. very lonely. My late wife told her friends when we were engaged that I was handsome. And by any metric I was. But that was a long time ago. It feels like a century.  It's almost like I am an immortal who lost a mortal wife and just have to wait until my immortality ends.

I am trying to sell my house in TN .But the deal which was marginal at best fell through and now the real estate firm that made that offer sent me a junk offer not worth the paper it is printed on which I reject.

I no longer live in TN.  Selling the house is almost vital as it is a burden when you live in another state. 

I want a 1 bed room apt not far from my daughters house where I can get drunk or stoned on a constant basis and try to forget.

If  a mod wants to move this to rant it's ok.

That is quite the reach if I do say so myself.

I shouldn't, but what the hell.

The problem is that while your statement could in some way be construed in the extreme as correct, no one, and I mean no one in a position to make things like titles stick states things this way.

...Except citizens of the country United States of America - most of whom have been brainwashed since birth to believe that they and they alone can claim the entirety of the title 'American'.  That is absolute bullshit as every single individual on both the North and the South American continents is an American.

I've said my piece and shall now pick up my pony and depart.  Good day, all!

Invasive thoughts about someone making a super serious mod for Fallout 4, called Shaun's army, but it's just a Nora pregnancy mod where she just goes on making 10 new babies, all named Shaun, 10 cribs in a row in settlements, with quests like "make a breast pump 5 circuitry, 2 plungers, 10 glass" , assaultron nannies, and "defend the babies" tower defense with super mutant suiciders trying to abduct the babies and runnin away with them the way they carry nukes
