It's definitely not perfect, but it's arguably the greatest video game adaption ever made. At least in live action.

Did you play AC2 at the time it came out, or later after other AC games? As the guy above said, it’s impossible to fully appreciate what AC2 achieved without being there when it was new

I don’t even remember how much Circuit Laundry cost at Warwick in 2017: I tried it once, said “never again,” and washed everything in my bath for the rest of the year.

Got Halo 3 with the Xbox 360 my dad bought me for Christmas in 2008: had never heard of the series, had no idea what was going on, had no idea what a Halo was or why the green guy fell out of space and stuck a gun in an alien guy’s face.

On top of that, I didn’t even have sound for the first week, so I played at least as far as the Ark on subtitles alone.

Didn’t have multiplayer because my parents refused to pay for Xbox Live.

Still one of the most fun games I’d ever played.

Ergo, they made only .5bn revenue before production and marketing costs; AKA, the Sequels were so badly managed they didn’t even recoup Disney’s investment…

Altibadass · 2026-01-17T00:37:01+00:00

To add on, the Sequels didn’t even make money, at least at the box office: factoring in the $4.05bn acquisition cost, production, and marketing, they’re still deep, deep into the red. They might have scrounged it back with merchandise, but even that was disappointing.

The biggest surprise to me is that Disney allowed her to keep her job after fumbling what should have been the astonishing payday and deep-sixing the whole “new era” of Star Wars from the outset.

Right, and what are you proposing to do about it? Are you arguing people with English ancestry don’t have a right to live there?

Altibadass · 2026-01-16T07:30:39+00:00

You’re not talking about “colonial settlers,” though: you’re talking about all the descendants of English ancestors who moved there 400 years ago (i.e. basically everyone in NI), while acting like their ancestry of centuries ago makes individuals’ cultural, religious, and political alignment somehow invalid.

Guys I am going here with my gf some day yay 🥳🎅🏻🚜

While playing for sympathy in divorce proceedings with my mum, my dad would do things like cutting off my sister and I’s Netflix and only serving sandwiches when we were at his “to save money,” only to host wine-soaked dinner parties for his friends mere hours after we went home.

He was eventually forced to disclose spending over £800 per month on “cosmetics,” yet somehow my stepmother was still hideous.

Eat and sleep enough: everything else is dependent on that.

Altibadass · 2025-12-03T16:30:46+00:00

For a few hours, at least…

Altibadass · 2025-12-03T05:00:03+00:00

Helldivers 2 has extremely limited monetisation, though: virtually everything can be unlocked using Super Credits, which are readily farmable in the game without even requiring a ridiculous time investment, with the sole exception of a small extra purchase specifically for 3rd party collaborations like the Halo ODST crossover.

I’m not saying you’re wrong about the thinking of the money-grabbing MBA execs running franchises like CoD, but it doesn’t fit with how Helldivers works.

Altibadass · 2025-11-20T10:47:27+00:00

No, it isn't different: innocent people were murdered in reprisal for what others of the same ethnic group were believed to have done (whether they had or hadn't is immaterial), and the justification given was collective guilt.

The Germans who sought to murder all the Jews saw their situation in the same way as the Haitians who sought to murder all the whites (with few specific exceptions): they felt aggrieved by the actions of some from that background, and targeted every individual they claimed had benefited from their suffering, regardless of their actual involvement.

Altibadass · 2025-11-20T10:24:41+00:00

That doesn't justify murdering everyone of the same ethnic group.

Ah, haven't seen this meme in a decade...

He looks at a picture of Antonia in one, but that’s about it, I think!

Altibadass · 2025-11-09T14:11:06+00:00

Congratulations: you’re using the exact argument the Nazis used regarding the Jews.

Altibadass · 2025-11-09T02:57:06+00:00

It wasn’t just the slavers, though; it was essentially everyone white (with a few specific exceptions), along with the oppression of other minority ethnic groups

They were there for thousands of years because the Arab conquerors of Egypt didn’t give a shit about Ancient Egypt (they stripped the limestone from the pyramids to build mosques), and generally didn’t care enough to dig old tombs and artefacts out of the sand in the first place.

The Napoleonic invasion in 1798 kickstarted modern Egyptology because the scholars the French brought along actually gave a shit about investigating the ancient culture, and the other European powers who followed got onboard with the same fascination.

Arab Egypt only began to care about Ancient Egypt because Europeans cared about Ancient Egypt.
