You have to pass an NICS background check to purchase a firearm in the United States.
You have a funny idea of what "military-grade firearms" are.
It also kicks the door open to further government control, regulation, and censorship, which they've been angling for in this industry since the '90s.
The only guns you can buy at Walmart are hunting rifles and smaller revolvers and handguns. And even then they don't always carry those, depending on state law.
There are laws on the books. The "pro-gun" side has been pointing that out as well as the failure of their enforcement as WELL as the failure of local law enforcement to even intervene during the shooting, instead standing around outside with THEIR guns while WEARING BODY ARMOR and ALLOWING STUDENTS TO GET SHOT.
Or, you know, a video game site is posting video-game related news about a video game summit?
When the original game runs and looks better than the current gen installment.
Don't. The guy's a snowflake posing as a self-declared Alpha and not afraid to file false DMCAs.

This article is pure trash.
I don't care if you dislike CoD, but this is HARDCORE reaching.
They have one.

And I never said games were the problem either. SImply that there are checks in place. Checks that WOULD have prevented the Florida shooter from ever getting that gun (legally, at least) had the local Sheriff properly booke...

...we have that. For both.
So uh... was he gonna give reasons WHY he thinks this, or was it just an excuse to write one paragraph and toss this up for clicks?
...it's the frigging Middle Ages, what were you expecting???
...no, they're entirely correct about this. It would take hours of farming, or over a week of saving up "free" stuff, to get that save point. They make it slow by design in hopes you lose patience and fork over that ten bucks. It's predatory in the worst sense, with the "free" and "in-game" options only being there for the express purpose of feeding people like you who will instantly defend them.
Stop being a shill.
OK, but that doesn't change the fact that AoE isn't dead, bro.
And nah, personally, I'm gonna support the games so long as they're good. AoE deserves it.
Age of Empires is actually getting all three main entries remastered and Age of Empires 4 is in development.
And a musket was once a military-grade weapon. So was a revolver. So was a handgun. So were the M1 Garands, bolt action Springfields, repeater rifles, and so on. By that logic, literally any weapon used out there was, at some point, a military-grade weapon. That's a scaremongering tactic people use because they KNOW that conjures up images of fully automatic weaponry.
Even so, the Civilian style rifle is specifically and intentionally made to be less powerful than its m...
