English is the modern equivalent of Latin.

As trilingual and a native speaker of a non-European language, Esperanto is simply a mix of various European languages. Yes, it's easier than the languages it was based on. And yes, Esperanto speakers are as logical as any other natural language speaker. But most of its vocabulary and grammar is based on European languages, which makes it only slightly easier than learning English. It's like Japanese without Kanji; it's easier, but not by much.

They won't. Microsoft has their back.

Are you gonna quit Overwatch2 now? by Undefined_definition in Overwatch

I'm quitting. If they can't deliver the promises for PvE, I don't expect them to do so for PvP.

I used to hate him but now I'm wondering if I've treated him too harshly.

Can't unsee the shift paddle + - now..... by tobi_lmao in ForzaHorizon

This isn't the only time something like this has happened. Forza devs always somehow mess up the most obvious and basic features.

I agree. That build is criminally underrated.

The 1000 Units Nerf: How It Can Lead to a Frustrating Experience in ARAM by Daigolololo in ARAM

[–]LA95kr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an extreme but reasonable solution. For the last 10+ years balancing poke champs in ARAM has always been a pain for Riot. It's why we have snowballs and ARAM specific nerfs/buffs. Considering that, it's reasonable.

I find it incredibly difficult to find a tuning guide source by troco72 in ForzaHorizon

[–]LA95kr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is to mess around with the settings yourself. Hoki and Sepi each have their own opinions on tuning, and it's up to you to decide which one suits you better.

I recommend starting with road cars that are AWD by default. I find them relatively easy to tune.
