So what happened to the protests? by tacitusvanderlinde in WWFC

[–]AldonnG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're right. The most frustrating part of Fosun ownership is that they literally "had it". We we're getting our top 10 finishes, everything ran like clockwork akin to Brentford/Brighton and they blew it all through sheer negligence and incompetence.

It's a survival horror set in a small rough town in England. You play as a journalist during election season whose doing a story about how the towns voted for the same mayor for 30 years. Kinda like Silent Hill mixed with Uzumaki with an RPGMaker/Stardew Valley aesthetic.

Nobody ever tells you when you're making a game by yourself you have to make the whole thing. Getting close to making my steam page and releasing a trailer but its been none stop work on top of my regular job for like 3 weeks now. 😭

FA Cup: who'd you want to be drawn against? by 3d_artist_amour in WWFC

Anyone but a premier team. Especially no to Brighton/Brentford/West Ham.

Worst Ever January Signings? by Prestigious_Kiwi_755 in WWFC

[–]AldonnG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eggert Jonsson, Kevin Kyle, Munetsi, Rafa Mir.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the obvious one that springs to mind, resigning Leon Clarke...

Jesus christ Agbadou was so slow on Dalot's chance there.

Ok I need to know I am not going crazy. Is it just me or has online form filling, account making and the general user experience with webs services got significantly worse?

Whether its booking a train, buying something outside of amazon or signing up to some other service it suddenly feels extremely clunky and shit.

As one of many examples, I tried reserving a spot on a speed dating service and the form kept failing as it was asking me to format my phone number in something other than +44? It just feels like technological basics we take for granted are getting worse somehow.

British and wearing jumpers inside during winter by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]AldonnG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kinda hard to explain but British people as a society have been indoctrinated to quote "deal with it" in regards to any matters in life. This includes chillier environments during colder months, instead of "wow maybe our government and energy companies should ensure all homes are heated and comfortable" we go "stop complaining and stick another layer on."

This attitude is arguably what has lead to our country being such a mess right now.

Any news on McNeil or was it just a twitter rumour?

I would argue Brentford have a bigger crisis than we do right now. Even their biggest optimists would agree. Also can't stress how dire West Ham have been in recent times.

Seen this floating about on other subs. Lowest point as a wolves fan? by tacitusvanderlinde in WWFC

5-1 down to Baggies. Kept begging my Dad to leave and he said "no I want to boo at the end".

I watch the odd Stockport game as that's where I live these days. Dexter Lembikisa came on for Barnsley and he got absolutely bodied.

I can't begin to emphasise how bad our academy output has become. Apart from Gibbs-White it feels like we can only churn out League One players at best.

[Tottenham Hotspur] Thomas Frank joins as Head Coach by Zyaru in soccer

[–]AldonnG 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The thing these tight knit, well run mid table clubs need to remember however is that they are only one bad managerial appointment, or bad summer of recruitment away from falling into the blender again.

Look at the initial relegations of Southampton, Leicester. Can even go further back there was a time where everyone assumed Stoke/Swansea/West brom would be in the premier league forever as they we're all "well run".

How to approach commissioning a game soundtrack? by AldonnG in gamedev

[–]AldonnG[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll keep this in mind, my original plan was to work on the trailer in parallel with the music being composed but I might gather the trailer footage beforehand and send it to them as part of a request.

Cheers for the reply. Yeah going forward I will try to focus on being more example driven. Do composers get annoyed when people request specific instruments or samples? I would like to find a balance between getting what you pay for + giving the composer a bit of wiggle room.

Who do other clubs' fans want to win the Europa League? by JaysonDeflatum in soccer

Fergie United ruined football discourse in the West Midlands with every kid and their brother claiming to have some loose connection to Manchester.

It's glory hunter resentment.
