Man, maybe I should just cancel, I’ve been on this since the first one, back when it was $12, and I’ve got a 1500+ line document full of games I have for friends to pick birthday presents, and I use the 20% discount a lot, but I don’t think I’m getting the full subscription price for ff 14 out of this.
She’s not a voting member of congress, she’s a congressional delegate for Washington DC. That said, the bills she has sponsored or supported have imo either been not been particularly meaningful or bad, like DACA back in 2014.
Because conservatives are still salty about Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. We’ve basically forgotten about it, but they think about that all the time.
Andor is way better than the prequels, honestly people who venerable those movies are giving them more credit than they deserve. Makes me feel like they got too lost in the sauce since /r/prequelmemes blew up.
BOI is there because it popularized Rogue Lites, or basically games with procedurally generated maps and permadeath, with some upgrades and unlocks that persist through your runs. It’s been a huge genre in the past decade ish, especially among indie games.
Battle Royale isn’t just the shrinking map, it’s also the massive player count and free for all nature where everyone starts with almost nothing and gets weapons as they find them. PUBG also got its lunch eaten by Fortnite, which popularized the battle pass, but that’s a monetization innovation moreso than gameplay.
Bullet Heaven is one that’s new enough that there aren’t that many games in the genre, but it’s basically a Rogue Lite where your main verb is moving and picking skills when you level up. Basically you’re picking skills to keep huge waves of enemies away from you for a set amount of time.
Point being, most of the innovation is in smaller indie projects. I’d look there if you want interesting ideas. The big dogs you asked about are either still around and so successful at what they do that they take up all the air in the room or their entire genre crumbled around them and morphed into something else.
And Minecraft is the only new thing you mentioned. Dune 2 was made by the same company as C&C and came out three years before, while WOW is something like the 5th big MMORPG, after ultima Online, Everquest, Final Fantasy 11, and EQ2. I’m also not confident that Minecraft is totally original, but it’s probably the most original of that selection.
Because C&C (along with the RTS genre in general) was killed and everyone interested in that genre either started playing DOTA or LOL, or the surviving hybrid genre games like Total War, WOW absorbed all the features of its competition except for what it couldn’t (good music and writing), so it’s living alongside its main competition, FFXIV, and Minecraft is just a multiplayer sandbox that is still incredibly popular and developers have been working on and releasing features for it for its entire lifetime. It is its own sequel a few times over. The big innovative games between now and Minecraft are probably Binding of Isaac for rogue lites, PUBG introducing the Battle Royale genre, Vampire Survivors for inventing Bullet Heaven.
I think the module I’m using, which could be Kingmaker or any number of other modules, might be gpu accelerated. Idk why exactly, but having the view for my players on the second monitor while mine is on the main causes it to dramatically slow down and freeze within a minute or so, to the point where the browser window doesn’t click and drag. All I really know is that it works on xorg and not on Wayland, and no distro that runs well in this accursed laptop is stable (endeavor OS turned off my Nvidia drivers in an update and ran everything through the amd apu) or comes with an xorg version of the DE (Fedora Bazzite also doesn’t have this, but at least it works otherwise). I transitioned to a purely online game at that time for other reasons, but I was looking longingly at how Windows users don’t have to put up with that bullshit, or at least not nearly as much.
Man, I just want Foundry VTT to work on my second monitor, it used to work but all the distros that moved over to Wayland DEs exclusively mean that I can’t use the thing I want and have the laptop do it’s one job of displaying foundry on my table TV. I guess what I really want is for Nvidia so put out better Wayland drivers.
The thing about fascists is that they do sometimes point out real problems, but their explanations on the causes and their solutions for those incorrect causes are wildly unreasonable. For example, Nigel here probably believes that “corporatism” is caused by the companies exploiting (white, British) people being owned by non British and non white people, and his solution is to ban those people from owning anything and indeed deport non white people and immigrants instead of regulating the actions of businesses in any way. So even if he’s correct that it’s a problem that people are suffering and the government is corrupt, he and Breitbart can’t be worked with because their solutions are bullshit and sharing glowing articles about them promotes their explanations and solutions.
Anyone know what her matchup against Dragonauv looks like?
You can tell from his Elden Ring build.
It means he wanted to murder her and then rape her body.
Her Color 2 for that outfit is trans flag colors. Idk if it was confirmed that she’s trans, but if she is, she’s not the first trans character in Street Fighter.
And also Ubisoft isn’t American, they’re a French company. So instead of Guile we should have Manon.
GN sent in a unit that would need a stick and main board replacement, because the micro SD slot was also broken. If they say the case etc is also bad, they can just give a new unit and Chuck the old one, thus saving on labor and spending the same amount of money.
And she got an Oscar for it while he did not.
You should look up his cult! I’m being serious, the guy has a cult. Here are the first two articles I found about it. Add that to the fact that he’s the worst part of basically every movie he’s in and he did shit like mail used condoms to his costars on Suicide Squad in the name of “method acting” and I feel like the general disgust with him being the main character in any movie, particularly one someone would otherwise be interested in is warranted.
And that group is also an incredibly small outlier, and wouldn’t be considered in their calculations.
That wasn’t Shruiken, that was, like, a shadow dragon he summoned with his shadow power or something. Created for the movie so they could have a more exciting climax than a one on one sword duel ended by an elf magically shattering a ruby as large as a house directly over said duel before diving into it on the back of a pissed off dragon, providing the distraction needed for the hopelessly outmatched hero to stab the unholy abomination through the heart. That might sound awesome to you, because it is. Shruikan was the post credits reveal.
Can’t wait to not need to buy the glass bottle version of coke for the cane sugar and also hopefully have him straight up lose half his base over the Epstein denial! Fingers crossed!
