Brad, I'm reading your face, and it's telling me that you need to shave.

They usually are these days. 

Great review Brad - have me really psyched for this game now. Knew it would be right up my alley with the setting and heavy emphasis on storytelling but had no idea the other elements would work so well together.

Brad's a lumberjack, and I'm OK with that.

I would be playing this right now, if it had shown up on my doorstep early in the AM like the "pre-order for release date delivery" promised. Unfortunately, UPS had a mechanical problem that their site says will delay the delivery by a couple days and it's sitting on an airplane in the fucking middle of nowhere.Well, New Mexico. Same thing.
Hey now. Let's be a little less flippant with our regional put-downs.
