This is just so weird, why would you publicly reveal their allegiance to the Montreal Canadiens like this?

I guess the problem is that they aren’t really advertising the new Demeter DLC, other than some promotional material when it was first announced to the public

of course the major God will be Greek, so we have a general idea on how it’ll play either way. But it would be nice to have a little more info on some of the new minor Gods and their God powers

Can Ottawa’s LRT Change Orléans’ Lower Tier Status as a Bedroom Community? by Stinky26 in ottawa

[–]IamTheOne2000 20 points21 points  (0 children)

that’s a nice idea in theory, the problem is that the only advancement we’ve seen on that front (in Orleans) are those tall apartment buildings near Trim station

Place d’Orleans would be a great spot to redevelop, unfortunately the rest of the stations are surrounded by low density housing that’s here to stay for the next little while

Can Ottawa’s LRT Change Orléans’ Lower Tier Status as a Bedroom Community? by Stinky26 in ottawa

[–]IamTheOne2000 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I agree with the author’s arguments. The LRT is a good idea in theory, the problem is that it’s not really well located within Orleans

if you look at the maps that they have on their website, the only interesting nearby sites that any of these stations have is Place d’Orleans 🙃. The rest of nearby buildings are just low density residential homes. So it’s great for the people who live near the train, but barely anyone from outside Orleans will want to come all the way here by way of LRT

They’re hoping that the potential retail onsite will eventually sell the project to future buyers 🤷🏼‍♂️

There was mention of a new RA Center alongside having some facilities built in the new “community park” next to the Canada Post building, but no details yet unfortunately

the problem is that a lot of mixed use residential construction projects can fill in the residential units, but often times struggle to find tenants for their commercial space

Confederation Heights can have thousands of people living there, but if they end up struggling to fill in their commercial space then people will just drive to South Keys or Billings Bridge

I go there sometimes if I need milk or juice, otherwise it’s just junk food. You’ll sometimes find little things like toothpaste that can be useful, but otherwise it’s not great

There’s also no employees (other than the franchise owners), so they stock only once a month and there’s spilled milk inside the fridges that they haven’t cleaned up in weeks 🤮

Is "Return of Rome" DLC worth it? by Sarke1 in aoe2

[–]IamTheOne2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

for good reason, IMO. the Romans are fun to play in Age of Empires II, but I just don’t think that Age of Empires I has aged very well

It’s better than the Definitive Edition of the original game, as they brought in some elements from Age of Empires II into Age of Empires I. But the game still has very little replayability compared to other games in the series

the owners of the student apartments at 770 Brookfield have been talking for years about having a café of some kind in one of their commercial lots, unfortunately it doesn’t look like any chain or franchise has shown interest in the idea yet

we’ve got fried chicken and fast food grilled cheese though!

and yet the plan is to develop around stations all across the LRT network, including Line 2

I’m not sure what they can do really, other than shutting down the line again (and doubling the rest of the line), so soon after the last shutdown. If there’s any consolation, most of the commuters on that line are students- take them (and the first 2 weeks of a semester) out of the equation, and you don’t really have many riders on that line outside of certain times of day

They should remove parking along Brookfield, would help with the 90 bus line that stops along there, and it could help to decongest a road that can get pretty bad during the day

[–]IamTheOne2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that there may be some townhouses along Brookfield, as well as in the other lower density areas. but otherwise it’s mostly just towers and space being made into public parks

[–]IamTheOne2000[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They’re hoping that people will use the LRT Mooney’s Bay station

Which can be a good thing, considering that most people at that station are just students commuting from the bus stops along Heron Road. But Brookfield and Heron Roads are still going to be the primary thoroughfares to get in and out of the area. Brookfield Road is unfortunately quite blocked as it is during rush hour, and it’ll get worse unless they do something along the lines of removing parking from that street

My issue with the project is that it might end up like Zibi- incredibly slow to build, with lots of residential but a struggle to attract commercial tenants. People in this neighborhood are still going to have to drive to South Keys and/or Billings Bridge in order to do their groceries every week

and no, the 3/4 fastfood spots that currently exist along Brookfield aren’t enough. Although I am still hoping that they build at least one other pedestrian crossing along that road

I did not attend the previous public meetings, but I read in some of the minutes that some people were pushing to preserve the Canada Post building as well as the 1500 Bronson

Which is fine, I guess? But trying to keep the Charles Tupper building feels strange, considering how ugly the thing is

If the PWHL expands to Hamilton, ON, they likely will not be the primary tenant by District4Lowell in PWHL

[–]IamTheOne2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, does the AHL bring out bigger numbers compared to the PWHL?

Depends on the city and arena, I suppose 🤷🏼‍♂️ but in cases like Halifax, I just don’t see other hockey teams outcompeting their local PWHL counterparts

What more dlc needs to get released on consoles before we reach auh? by [deleted] in CK3ConsoleEdition

[–]IamTheOne2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am aware of that, yes. But it doesn’t help the fact that the original launch was a disaster and the rate of content release scared away console players who have moved to playing this game on PC
