I enjoyed the combat of DA2 a great deal, actually a lot more than Origins. I feel as though the duelist's crazy teleporting move was probably inspired by a similar ability that was introduced to the rogue in DA: Awakening. In any case, the only part I didn't like was the exploding bodies, or at least having bodies explode with basic weapons. I can accept them blowing up because of a magical attack though. I loved making fools burst with lightning strikes in Inquisition.

When you compare this guy to a terrible, sensationalist channel like the know,then you have insight into why i'm "halfassing" this guy. But yes, that is the point I'm referring too. Errr, wat? Okay. And then, who isn't terrible and sensationalist? Who do you turn to for news?

The problem I have with The Know anymore is that they are using what seems like YouTube for all their information now instead of spending time to do some real research into their content. It seems to feel more factual when the hosts are talking about their personal experiences then when they are reading the script.

Articles I've written have been cited on the know, but they didn't contact us for verification. Heck, the story they "broke" on the facial scans used an article I wrote, with sources and verification from Liam robertson, without going to us or robertson to clarify. They just read passages and made bad jokes. We make it a point for big stories to contact everyone possible before publishing if possible. That is a big difference basically.

That almost sounds like... actual journalism.

Even the follow-up, which we had to make an addendum after waiting a day to report on it because Robertson didn't get back to us on time. This is what good journalism should be... The first storyThe Follow Up on DylanCompared to the Know, who parrot everything without context.

We live in an era where commentators have replaced actual reporters, and what amounts to editorial rants is passed off as reporting. It's nice to know that real journalism still exists.
