    The time period depicted by Pirates of the Caribbean (and AC Black Flag) is the post-Spanish Succession era of piracy which is roughly 1715-1730. The American Revolution is still about 35-40 years away after the end of this period.

    My guy the US didn't exist yet during the heyday of Caribbean piracy. 💀 And when they did exist they barely had a navy at all until after the Civil War.

    They're by far the largest and the most threatening, yes. This is the company that almost single-handedly subjugated the entire Indian subcontinent on behalf of the British Empire and got away with perpetrating the slave trade long after it was supposed to have been abolished throughout the Empire.

    Third movie, that's the Hoist the Colors scene. And by the end of the film the perpetrator is dead and his control over the Caribbean is shattered, what's your point?

    The first one ends with Jack sailing off to his next adventure while Norrington is like "Let's give him a day's head start just for funsies." The third one ends with the entire East India Company turning tail and running for their lives from the pirate lords and the Flying Dutchman. And if the...

    Which is another reason why Windrose is already the better pirate game, since it's just going full Pirates of the Caribbean on the setting instead of being limited by historical accuracy.

    I mean, the biggest problem I had with OG Black Flag is something they can't change and it's the story. Never mind all the annoying Assassin's Creed bullshit with Abstergo and constantly pulling you out of the plot and stuff, it's also a story about the end of the age of piracy and starts to get...

    New development on the payment processor front. The Free Speech Coalition is gauging interest in forming a credit union for the adult entertainment industry. Credit unions can issue their own credit cards, making this a potential solution to the problem of Visa and Mastercard unilaterally...

    Neat, thanks. Maybe now I can figure out why some people prefer this game over Skyrim.

    Spent the evening trying out Windrose, a pirate-themed survival game. This one is just out of early access and it's already a better successor to Black Flag than Skull and Bones will ever be.

    So in regards to the payment processor situation, the Federal Reserve is currently taking public comments in regards to prohibiting the use of reputational risk for politicized purposes, IE what Visa and Mastercard have been doing recently.

    I love Fallout New Vegas but I just realized it's missing something important. I want Doc Mitchell to give you the bullet he fished out of your skull. I want that bullet to be a subtype of ammo that you can only get one of in the game. And I want you to be able to carry that bullet all the way...

    Filtering out stories involving underage sex

    Even if this were done, currently there isn't an option available to automatically blacklist or ignore all threads with an undesired tag. I would know because I've asked before and gotten the answer that it's not feasible without paying for extra software development for the site. So this...
