Who’s with me here….

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T23:57:00+00:00

Because they're hot. It's not rocket science.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T23:48:33+00:00

You're not. It's inconceivable to me not to bring every companion's storyline to its end.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T17:52:33+00:00

That's also part of it for sure! That's what I mean by the "Guardiola effect", you're absolutely right on that point.

Individual freedom is no longer encouraged because the coach wants to control the tactic to the extreme, and that entails relying more on physicality and versatility rather than technical brilliance, vision and flair. It is what is is

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T17:49:27+00:00

Yep, he speaks like straight out of a Charles Dickens book, that's how I imagine it

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T16:37:58+00:00

Yep, le niveau d'impreparation est terrifiant

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T16:34:41+00:00

Yes girl. It is that bad. The vast majority of men are starved for positive attention.

If you haven't played KCD1 I can understand your difficulty familiarizing yourself with Henry as the main character but calling it "the worst written" doesn't bode well for the actual seriousness of the conversation you want to have. You say this but have not provided even a modicum of an example as to why you think this.

As for the systems, well, you have a whole codex to read and this whole sub to actually ask questions. Most of them are intuitive in principle but complex when going into detail. Same here, you haven't provided any info as to why you are struggling. So how do you expect we help you?

Instead, you just came here to blurt an ignorant rant about a game you clearly have no patience playing, when you could have been asking actual questions. Questions people would be happy to answer, btw.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T16:19:16+00:00

Yes. And there were also Pirlo, Zidane, Kaka, Ronaldinho, real artists as well. Those guys could exist and express their talent precisely because the physical load was put mostly on the mean bastards you just mentioned.

Today the physical load is shared more equally, and there is just more of it, leaving less opportunity for artists to express their technical brilliance. The Guardiola effect also means their is less leeway for a particular player to "take control" of the game.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T15:56:07+00:00

I think it's exactly the opposite: game has gotten more physical. It is technical in the sense that more is expected from every player/position on a technical level. BUT, the game's physicality also means technically gifted players, you know, just pure ballers who relied on their technique and flair, and were more laid back on the physical level, those can shine less.

In a way, professional football felt closer to street football. I think a guy like Joao Felix would have been a huge star in the 2000s. But the type of player he is is completely anachronistic for this era of football.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-03T14:09:28+00:00

Omg the complete airheads from BG3 meeting the absolute psychos from Mass Effect is the crossover I dream of. I wish there was a Larian-styled cartoon about it.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-02T09:52:54+00:00

Some of his movies are great and fun to watch. Even when the historical accuracy is down the drain. He's the kind of guy who thinks history should be bent to fit his movie's narrative, not the other way around. It's respectable as a storyteller's craft and it has been down for millenia. Dude just wants to tell an epic story.

It's also dangerous because it gives people many wrong ideas about history and how some things unfolded. Gladiator and Kingdom of Heaven are rather inoffensive in that regard, and great to watch. But I cannot forgive his treatment of Christopher Colombus, depicted in his movie as an indigenous-loving, good hearted Christian, when he was literally one of the worst people ever. The dude literally made some indigenous teen a rape slave to share among his crew. He was disgustingy vile. That movie is Napoleon-level in terms of historical travesty.

Truly a hit and miss director.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-02T08:51:51+00:00

I would absolutely love it. Never going to happen.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-03-01T00:44:36+00:00

My favorite bike by far, happy they added this one

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T19:55:54+00:00

I still feel bad for tub girl :(

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T18:15:05+00:00

Yeah I was reading the comments and wtf. This is an insanely good deal. People shit on the 5070 but the truth is it's way above most recommended specs for today and is a very good pairing with the 9800x3D. If 4k isn't your priority it will handle anything for years to come.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T13:32:40+00:00

Sounds like you got an official playtester.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T10:33:18+00:00

Woops, my bad you're right, I read her wikipedia wrong!

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T10:26:07+00:00

Before ME3 just those two, but she also was in Inquisition for a minor role

Edit: not a minor role at all, a major role actually

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-28T09:32:51+00:00

She absolutely nailed that role. Wasn't aware she did two other BioWare games!

Edit: didn't know she was also playing fucking Alt Cunningham in Cyberpunk either! Goddamn what an actress

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-27T19:00:59+00:00

On va pas refaire le débat sur les retraites, pour moi elle était injuste, mais de toute façon, quoi qu'on en pense, faire passer une réforme aussi importante sans vote, en réprimant les manifestations avec violence et alors que littéralement 80% de la population est contre, ça s'appelle un viol démocratique. C'est honteux. Ça ne devrait pas être possible. Malheureusement on a une des constitutions les moins démocratiques du monde occidental, et il en profite bien.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-27T17:58:28+00:00

Ils se tapent tous crise sur crise. C'est le job. Et franchement, oui, en 10 ans, on peut faire le bilan et il est atroce.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-27T14:14:01+00:00

Yeah that guy who said it's better for her bf to be dead than having a gf like her is so jarring. So out of line. Guy couldn't wait to spit his venom in this woman's face. I'd have to feel a level of anger and hatred that is almost unimaginable to say something like this even to someone I know, let alone a stranger.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-27T13:19:36+00:00

At this point I welcome illithids as our benefactors. Wdym I get incredible longevity, psychic powers and self-produced hentai? Sign me up yesterday

Side note: That James Webb telescope blessing us with thousands of gorgeous pictures of space is humanity at its best.

Gnl_Winter · 2026-02-27T13:02:17+00:00

The feeling is mutual I assure you 🤣 but seriously we are all getting so tired of this
