Ubisoft is continuing its crusade to try and make money from the Might & Magic license by creating a mash-up of the two most popular genres on mobile right now, Auto Chess and battle royale.

The upcoming mobile game goes by the incredibly creative title Might & Magic: Chess Royale. We bet that was a long board meeting trying to come up with that.

Chess Royale pits you against 99 other opponents to determine who is the last person standing. Each round, your team will face a single opponents team, and the winner progresses while the loser is knocked out.

Youll recruit heroes and units from the franchises history and upgrade them each round. Its like a standard Auto Chess game in that respect.

Each match is designed to be over within 10 minutes, so dont worry about them lasting hours as is typical of the genre.

You can pre-register for Might & Magic: Chess Royale right now on Google Play, if you find the thought of it interesting. It launches January 30 on Android.

There might have been a time when Democrats could have taken back the White House by simply letting President Trump implode, but instead they opted to one-up his self-destructive behavior. Now theyre finally realizing they are more than likely set to lose.

Liberals in the media can usually put on a brave face when they know their political party of choice is heading toward a cliff, as with the Mueller investigation and impeachment, but there was no denying what we all saw this week: the decomposition of the Democratic presidential field.

The debate this week was a disaster, and everyone is admitting it. (Except, that is, for the Washington Posts Eugene Robinson, who wrote in earnest that the debate gave Democrats reason to hope that the happy ending they seek for might actually happen, an assessment divorced from reality.)

Immediately after the debate, CNNs Van Jones said the event was dispiriting.

Democrats are going to have to do better than what we saw tonight, he said. There was nothing I saw tonight that would be able to take Donald Trump out, and I want to see a Democrat in the White House as soon as possible. There was nothing tonight that if you're looking at this thing and say any of these people are prepared for what Donald Trump is going to do to us.

Well said. But wait! Theres more!

The next day on MSNBCs Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough said the candidates performances at the debate should send a chill up Democrats spines, because these people are still not ready for prime time.

On the same show, Al Sharpton said: I didnt see anybody on the stage last night, or in the ring, that really said, Im taking charge. I can be president. I can take on Donald Trump.

Liberal CNN commentator Angela Rye, my favorite, needed to psych herself up to make the same admission, but she eventually went through with it Wednesday on Cuomo Prime Time.

Asked by Chris Cuomo if she believed after the debate that any of the Democrats demonstrated they can beat Trump, Rye let out an exhale that could be felt through the screen.

I have to be honest with you because that is my pledge as a person who has a platform on TV, she said, and I have to be honest with you, that debate stage last night frightened me."

Rye said she didnt see a whole ton of strength among the candidates and that we have a lot of groundwork to do before this party can beat Donald Trump.

Democrats have accepted their fate, and its a lot of fun to watch.

Knives Out, an Agatha Christie-style whodunit that will likely snag some Oscar nominations soon, is not really political.

You can enjoy the film as a pretty standard murder mystery without unpacking its characters beliefs, from the Trumpism of one character to the open borders rhetoric of another. One of the most interesting things about the film is the way its able to lampoon both.

Liberal magazine Sojourners described the movies perspective as a merciless skewering of white privilege. More fundamentally, its a critique of hypocrisy.

Hollywood liberals took a beating this week when Ricky Gervais blasted their double standards: touting moral lessons about society while cozying up to Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein. Knives Out follows suit.

The film is about a rich, white man and his rich, white family, who hope to inherit his wealth after his mysterious death. During a discussion at old Harlan Thrombeys birthday party the night before he dies, his son-in-law and daughter-in-law get into an argument.

Richard, whom daughter-in-law Joni pejoratively refers to as red-hat wearer, echoes the pull yourself up by your bootstraps rhetoric of the GOP. Immigrants should be rewarded for entering the country the legal way, etc.

Joni, an Instagram influencer who meditates and spouts platitudes in a way that would make Gwyneth Paltrow jealous, responds that the government is putting kids in cages.

To settle the argument, Richard calls in Marta, Harlans Latina nurse. She did it the right way, he explains. But Marta has a secret: Her mother is undocumented.

Marta becomes the unofficial protagonist of the film, leading detective Benoit Blanc through the idiosyncrasies of the family and ultimately to the truth of the murder. And while the film had a chance to present the liberal, excessively pro-immigration side as heroes, it turns them, as well as the right-wingers, into villains.

No one in the family can remember which country in South America Marta is from, and at least three different options are mentioned throughout the film. (Brazil? Paraguay? Educador?) When it is revealed (spoiler alert) that the unselfish Marta will receive all of Harlans fortune, the Thrombey family goes ballistic.

In an effort to wrest the fortune back for themselves, they threaten to expose Martas mother as an undocumented immigrant unless Marta gives them what they see as their rightful inheritance. All of the characters, from the MAGA ones (one of whom calls Marta an anchor baby) to the woke liberals, are in on the scheme. That talk about caring about immigrants seems pretty empty when one immigrant becomes an obstacle to a huge wad of cash.

Instead of using the political tension in the film to stir controversy, Knives Out plays off it for humor, particularly in the scene where the family begins fighting and hurling insults from alt-right troll to SJW student.

Everyone kind of sucks, except Marta, who, like many young immigrants in America, grew up in a difficult situation that she did not choose. The film refrains from overly politicizing her plight, but it does offer this commentary: Neither conservatives nor liberals are really on her side.

The film's director, Rian Johnson, has said Knives Out is not a "message movie." But, he told the Associated Press, it was important that the film seem modern.

"Right now, if you have dinner with your big family and you have a few glasses of wine, and you start arguing, guess what you're going to be arguing about?" he asked. "It's the same stuff we're all arguing about. And so hopefully the movie portrays that in a way where you can go with your family and you can all kind of laugh at yourselves a little bit."

MSNBC personality Lawrence ODonnell made a mistake in liberal land this week he told the truth. Allowing peeks behind the curtain in the land of left-wing politics is a no-no, audiences are not allowed to see how the sausage is made. Larry, a rich white guy, accidentally not only pulled back the curtain, he set it on fire.

Larry told disgraced former Senator Al Franken, forced to resign after multiple women came forward to accuse him of unwanted sexual advances (including unwanted touching and forced kissing), that MSNBC doesnt even bother having anyone on who is pro-Trump. Thats one of the reasons why Trump kind of wants you to watch CNN instead of MSNBC, ODonnell said. Because he knows on MSNBC there will be no one defending him. Because we dont bring on liars. I dont bring on a liar. I wont do that.

What ODonnell admits there is his employer is not a news organization, its an activist for-profit TV network. When asked if you have to lie to defend the president, Larry was unequivocal, saying, Yes, absolutely you do. How else do you defend a liar, a pathological liar who lies about everything? You have to lie.

Larry does not watch MSNBC or even listen to the words coming out of his mouth, apparently. Was there more than a day in the past three where he hadnt declared the president colluded with Russia in the 2016 election? What hasnt ODonnell and his fellow travelers at the peacock cable outlet accused someone named Trump of doing? Murder, maybe, but thats only because its just about the only thing the family hasnt been accused of yet. (Give it time.)

Its been a rough time for the old, white, on-air personalities at MSNBC, so you can understand why Larry would try to stand out and create some buzz for himself. The truth-teller had to eat a huge steaming pile ofum, crow after he lied on air about Russians close to Vladimir Putin co-signing for loans for Donald Trump. It was such a bald-faced lie that it didnt even meet MSNBCs standards, which is saying something.

Imagine being a 68-year-old narcissist, a self-proclaimed socialist with expensive tastes, single (his wife finally bugged out after two decades of dealing with him), and facing rumors of losing his show at the end of the year the thing from which he seems to derive meaning in his life. Is there a market for an unemployed, over-the-hill has been, incapable of loving anyone as much as himself who hates hammering?

You begin to see why maintaining the echo chamber he works in is so appealing to him if he loses his staff, who else would want to be around him?

Someone the Daily Beast described as an insider at MSNBC said the heads of ODonnell and Chris Matthews could be on the chopping block this year. According to the report, it all depends on what happens with the election. You could see either or moving on to other endeavors or staying for another round.

When your fate is up in the air, you need all the buzz you can generate.

But there wouldnt be speculation about anyone leaving the network if things were going well. MSNBC lost 25 percent of its viewers aged 18-49 in 2019, coming in 26th on basic cable and well behind the Lifetime network. That means their audience is old, and getting older. Not what companies want, especially when your numbers arent huge to begin with.

Also reportedly on the chopping block is none other than Chuck Todd. They cant fire him, hes the face of their news division, but they can demote his show Meet The Press Daily. The anchor Todd is an anchor on ratings as well, apparently, as he is a low point for MSNBC, mostly because Todd is laughably biased and a horrible, arrogant host himself. He took the MTP brand and embarrassed its legacy even more than former host David Gregory did, which is saying something.

Theres talk of moving Todds show to 9:00 am, a major demotion that has Ginger Avenger and his staff upset. No one likes being told they arent liked, but its better to find out in a way that keeps your job than it is to find out by losing it.

Todd famously announced hed no longer have anyone who disagrees with liberal orthodoxy on climate change on his show, setting the tone for the network. Hes extended that to anyone who disagrees with him on pretty much anything, which, as Larry confirmed, has also metastasized to the rest of the network. His decisions made ripples throughout the organization and they were all bad.

All of this comes as a surprise only if you live in an insulated world where everyone tells you how great you are, how smart you are, and how wonderful you are. Unfortunately for the personalities at MSNBC, they surround themselves with people who agree with them and people who depend on them for their livelihoods. Whos going to tell them no? Turns out, viewers.

The Insulated Life Of Liberals - Townhall

Progressives in America are just as bad as the North Korean regime at least according to E.W. Jackson, the right-wing radio host and former candidate for Lt. Governor of Virginia.

Jackson has been reading The Aquariums of Pyongyang, the story of a man who spent a decade in North Korean prison camp, which inspired him to declare that he doesnt see any difference whatsoever in substance between the North Korean regime and liberals in the U.S.

They are interested in hurting people, Jackson said. We Christians are not interested in putting people in jail because they dont agree with us. Were not interested in destroying peoples lives because they dont agree with us. Were interested in praying for them and ultimately persuading them and trusting that God will touch their hearts and theyll see the light. We know that God loves them and so do we.

I also dont recall Kim Jong-un fighting for justice reform, demanding a living wage for workers, or urging the government to provide all people with affordable healthcare.

But besides anything relevant, Im sure both groups are alike.
