The Assassin’s Creed franchise nowadays seems more like one of those slushy machines at the mall that perpetually move the same ingredients around in a neverending cycle of despair and stagnation.

Don’t remember that dialogue, but the OP made me think of the Jamrock Shuffle (constantly running around town like a crazy person).

As someone whose first TES was Morrowind, it set the bar so high in terms of worldbuilding, I was honestly a bit disappointed with the later entries into the series. Oblivion (more generic fantasy setting) and Skyrim (nordic with dragons) definitely played better, but the worlds were much less unique and memorable.

Mass Effect completely blew me away when it came out. Loved the overall lore about the Reaper threat and how the different species were connected to each other.

Horizon: Zero Dawn was also great in that regard, and the world felt really well put together, even though the lore wasn’t quite as deep.

Had the same experience with Songs of Conquest. Beautiful game, but something felt off that I can’t put my finger on. The game felt really snowball-y, where your chances to win depend strongly on what resources you control early on, and the magic system (while interesting) felt really imbalanced. Nothing really managed to recreate the HoMM feeling for me.

They can also be both. Successful career, but forever haunted by a fear of inadequacy that just won’t go away.

AFAIK, LineageOS is not a fork but a version of Android that is built on top of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP).

Probably, but if it turns out on the higher end of that, say 0.8%, then that’s also not nothing, considering that it’s the result of firing one (1) dude.

Yeah, the way he does it is basically how everyone did it even 10 years ago. The tools were mostly the same then as they are now, with the exception of AI and the fact that handwriting wasn’t as big a thing anymore when today’s undergrads were in school. If you have a fluid and moderately quick handwriting, paper notes will typically be easier to take and more useful for revising the material later on.

This is my cat while sleeping. This is my cat while awake. I travelled to work this morning and would like to travel back home now, because that would allow me to escape this stupid fucking situation.

Like a dead coral reef.

Well, in Persona 5 (third from the left), you play as a male high-school student, and your first boss fight is against a volleyball coach, who sexually harasses one of the female students. Meanwhile, your romance options include 1) a goth doctor, 2) an alcoholic reporter, 3) a fortune teller working in a red light district, and 4) your homeroom teacher whose secret side hustle is for a sexy maid service.

My girlfriend and I play (mostly local) co-op sometimes. Some games that we enjoyed so far were (local unless otherwise indicated):

• Divinity: Original Sin 2
• Baldur’s Gate 3
• Portal 2
• Diablo 3
• It Takes Two
• A Way Out
• Minecraft (online)
• Stardew Valley (online, may also work locally now)

I recently replayed FFX and couldn’t agree more. Loved every second of it, and it’s still my favorite FF of all time.

Don’t forget Ennio Morricone’s musical genius. Many of the most iconic scores in Western films are his compositions.

Prepare to get hundreds of multiple-paragraph replies. If there’s one thing Germans love, then it’s telling non-Germans about Germany. Source: am German.

Not my fault reasons 1-3 don’t make any fucking sense. Be mad at me for good reasons at least.

Damn, I remember asking you whether you’d play it like 2-3 weeks ago, and here you go. I look forward to your updates as you go through this game!
