the truthseeker Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Gotta admit, didn't think the intellectuals listening to NPR would admit to playing these kind of games. Happily mistaken.

(I'm still thinkig they are a buncha liberal yadda yadda yaddas though ) they do tend to lean towards the liberal side, but not everything NPR posts is political. Actually I'd wager that the majority isn't.

Although, it's hard to find a news source that doesn't lean one way...even if that way is to the "I think what's wrong with this country are both political parties" take.

simplex Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 They should've called Don't Starve a rogue-like as well. It's certainly more so than Rogue Legacy, titles aside. But nice spotlight.
