“I defended the Republic as a young man. I shall not desert it as an old one. I scorned the swords of Catiline, and I shall not shiver at yours.
“What’s more, I should offer up my corpse freely, if the liberty of the state is able to be recovered through my death, so that at long last the strife of the Roman people may bring to birth that with which it has so long been in labor. For truly, if I said nearly twenty years ago in this very temple that it is not possible for someone who has been a consul to die too young, how much more strongly shall I affirm that it is not possible for an old man!
“But for me, conscript fathers, death is now even preferable, given those things which I have achieved, those things which I have accomplished. I hope only for these two things: first, that, dying, I may leave behind a free people in Rome. No greater wish could be granted to me by the immortal gods. And second, that every man shall receive his due when it comes to the Republic.” — Marcus Tullius Cicero (Jan. 3, 106 BCE–Dec. 7, 43 BCE), Philippics 2.118-119
the real question is how the fuck did persephone only manage to eat 6 pomegranate seeds. theyre like the fucking cocaine of fruit you cant eat just 6 singular seeds you have to pop handfuls upon handfuls into ur mouth at rapid speeds and then get sad cause you spent half an hour getting them out of the pomegranate and ate all of them in 5 minutes
for everyone who’s excited about obsidian dragging bethesda this isn’t just about how fucking trash garbage 76 is, this is about how obsidian was shafted by bethesda when fallout new vegas came out.
heres the thing, obsidian used to work on a weird kind of business model where they would make games on a budget for certain companies and if they met a certain review quota they would get a bonus.
new vegas missed the quota by 1 point.
1 point because bethesda didn’t give them enough money to make one of, if not the best game in the franchise, and rushed them continuously through production
this isn’t new drama
this is obsidian finally getting its vindication after bethesda robbed them and almost sent them into financial ruin
