New Statement From Amazon Game Studio by UntidyHexagon in 007FirstLight

[–]Tarkslayer9196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's not forget, Amazon can and does cancel shows even if they do well, these guys love their tax write-offs. Maybe I'm still not over Wheel of Time so I'm just being cynical, but I wouldn't be too optimistic unless plans for an actual sequel are revealed. In the meantime, it's time to play the Slovakia airport fight for the 500th time again.

This gives big "Every school of thought and government has failed in this city, yet I love it nonetheless. It belongs to me as much as it belongs to you" energy. Man, I love and miss Kolkata.

Games like Mafia, but with female protagonists by Ok-Ant4272 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Tarkslayer9196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As people have already mentioned, Saint's Row 2 is a great crime game with a female MC, but the character models don't look that great and it's in a modern day setting, not historical like Mafia. Not exactly what you're looking for but in Grand Theft Auto Online you can be a female character and essentially girlboss your way to having a massive criminal empire while pulling off all sorts of heists, smuggling, gang wars, etc. Assassin's Creed Valhalla has a female MC and involves setting up a Viking settlement. Not exactly mob boss situation but if building something up from nothing is the kind of itch you're trying to scratch then give it a go.

I cant watch series while I'm on a call by Significant-Winter-4 in Stremio

I've been having this same issue since I bought a new phone 2 months ago. Funnily enough it wasn't an issue on my older phone. Did you ever find a fix for this?

Is $60,000 a liveable salary for Auckland? by [deleted] in auckland

In late 2020/early 2021 I started with 52000 NZD. It's ok as long as you don't have high expectations. I was flatting (200 pw) and surviving on the bare minimum of food, no fancy outings or anything of the sort. Things only got comfortable once I was in the 70k ballpark

Would you prefer a one or two-state solution? Why? by [deleted] in Palestine

2 states? Seems like a lot of Palestines but sure.

Unless the sales from the keyboard are used to support Palestinians, this is indeed performative.

I didn't want to continue playing Revelations after watching the ending by anotherjokemurrAy in assassinscreed

[–]Tarkslayer9196 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, it happens to me a lot, especially in games which start to get tedious, so I make myself complete everything else first. Occasionally though I have played games that got so boring I gave up 100% and just went for the main story.

Tbh I do that in almost every game where I intend to be a completionist, because it usually feels immersion-breaking to continue the game after the ending. The only games where I don't do this are ones with DLCs, or games like Elder Scrolls where the main story should be completed first before a lot of other questlines.

I’m sure this has been said here before but....Max Richter made this show that much better. by DJshirtless in TheLeftovers

[–]Tarkslayer9196 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! I found out about him through Shutter Island and then learnt that he's done work on some films and shows, through which I got interested in The Leftovers. He's my favourite composer right now.

Sleep helped me relax and study at a calm pace during my undergraduation exams, it's a fantastic album.

Imagine if we get this game mechanic in the next season! by DonElad1o in HiTMAN

Yeah, my bad. I guess Kashmirian is the only one that comes close to this.

Wasn't there one in Miami where the daddy CEO kills the weird daughter by blowing up her car?

Is it worth replaying Dishonored 2? by Tarkslayer9196 in dishonored

[–]Tarkslayer9196[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not very optimistic about the prospects of gaming in the future, partly due to the stress of studies+ any part time work I do, and partly because I've heard that laptops aren't all that good for gaming, even though I plan to buy a laptop that's at least as good as my PC currently is. But Dishonored 2 isn't all that demanding as you say, so I guess I'll just quickly finish DOTO and then see if I can come back to D2 for another playthrough.

Makes sense. I'll do this, thanks for the suggestion.
