The only thing overrated about Brad was his opioid tolerance.

Seemingly tedious at first, the diplomacy system was a surprisingly good game within a game after a while, almost meditative once the right choices became second nature. Despite some glaring faults, Vanguard still had more going for it than the competition, though overambitious for sure. There was no need to try and blur zone lines together when zones themselves acted as individual parts that, together, made the mosaic whole.

If you play it enough, the emulator at least, you start to get a feel for what McQuaid and company had in mind. So much potential there that was never fully realized.

I had to vote maybe.


I've been places and seen things, and done things. Some of which I regret. Others regret me. Loss and love, you chose, but you tell me they ain't the same I know you're a liar.


When you've loved and lost as much as I have, you've seen too much heartache to believe much when it comes to happy endings and good deeds.



So was Brad McQuaid overrated?


Maybe.

This is truth. We all need to face up to this. The good of things is not always flattering to us. Voltaire said "if God didn't exist we would need to invent him." Napoleon, a much more practical and less cryptic person, said "Religion keeps the common people quiet."


Kohedron: "EQ was an ground-breaking autist sink."



So God bless the Pope and God Bless Brad McQuaid.

It is weird that he was portrayed by Channing Tatum in 21 Jump Street though
