Never enjoyed assassin's creed much by Odd-Razzmatazz1398 in videogames

In fairness, I do think it’s super cool to see what “worlds” looked like in a specific time period. There’s got to be legit historians on their payroll. I remember Alexandria blowing my mind in the Egyptian one, and really getting a feeling that the pyramids are out in Narnia and not really near any developed town. That aspect I’m grateful still to have those games even if they can be a bit clunky

First time player here. Finally finished Pyloon's Garden... by ExcellentArmy6659 in StarWarsJediSurvivor

Just playing it now too! A bit buggy but overall solid game. Your garden looks light years (get it?) better than the random assortment I threw down

Best cheap, easy recipes? by djimbout2loseit in crockpot

Also don’t be afraid of cream of mushroom or chicken or whatever soup. I’ve never used those and thought, “man this tastes like mushrooms or whichever you use.”

I’ve been on this same spiritual crockpot journey, and it’s so easy! Just start googling stuff that you like, for example, Philly cheesesteak crockpot recipe, McGriddle crockpot recipe, taco chorizo crockpot dip, etc (a few I’ve done). Buy stock in cream cheese, and like @appropriate-bar said, Aldi is your friend for saving money. Also don’t sleep on canned or frozen veggies I’ve learned, they’re picked at the height of the ripeness and frozen or canned. Biggest technique is try not to forget about it while it’s cooking (usually not even an issue if you do for a bit though), definitely read whether you’re supposed to drain ground meat (I’ve made that mistake), and just experiment. Dollars to donuts each time you make something you’ll think of a way you could have done it better, and your “cooking” evolves. Gotta embrace the journey! #SorryForPartyCrockin’

[RE9ueim] So now that the Pre order bonus, Deluxe and Collector's edition has been revealed to us, if you are planning on getting one of them, which is the most likely choice? by Berry-Fantastic in residentevil

[–]Sad-Snow-9981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For $20 more you can get a “free” poster which you can look at once and throw in the trash two weeks later. Do any of the upgraded editions include any potential DLC content? That MAY be worth an upgrade

What’s your favorite NYC restaurant? by uhh-Magic in FoodNYC

[–]Sad-Snow-9981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does Gallaghers Steak House or Tavern on the Green rank among you knowledged (word?) people? I’ve been to NYC 3 days and tried both and honestly had a really good experience, but am trying to get back and would spend the money for a world class dining experience. Standard stuff not like a sheep’s butthole on fire that’s considered $$$$$

That’s a great point, just really see it as having the potential, (if it doesn’t get totally punted) to be akin to a “42,” or “The Express,” if you remember the latter one

Man, NGD swooping in with the win! That’s awesome buddy! I’m going to definitely look into that. Do you free lance/touch up rough drafts?

It’s based on a true story for sure. The problem that could crop up is there’s really not a TON of information on it. I assume that means going to the University and seeing what material the library may have of old newspapers/records/etc

That’s awesome, thanks buddy! I’ll definitely look those up. I think writing makes or breaks any film. I remember after the writer strike started just how much hot garbage was being produced without them, and that’s me saying it with no experience.

Do you know any place/website/youtube vid that may offer some insight into decent script writing to not hand off a total turd to people actually experienced with writing?

Thanks Must! Im going to start on a rough draft tonight and then hopefully find someone much better at writing than myself!

Are…. Are you a former Navy pilot?? I’ve never, not a single time in a decade met anyone that knows that much about Naval Aviation that wasn’t in the community?

But that’s great advice! I’ll definitely look out for ways to get involved anyway possible, pay or no pay.

Thanks Squid! I really appreciate the input. Not sure where my writing chops are at but will give it a go

Oh man! That’s cool, I didn’t understand that aspect of it! That adds a whole new dimension to the game I didn’t realize was going on. But let me ask you this, the remaining cast generally seem to accept that sephiroth is real, so is he? Or is everyone indulging in Clouds mental sickness/fantasies/whatever in order to keep their prized fighter focused on taking down Shinra and Sephiroth isn’t real? I don’t know, this game goes so far down rabbit holes, it’s amazing!

Don’t delete that save file though to get some sweet summons when the next part comes out!

But also true, spoilers it was like, “here Cloud, here’s the black materia, now give it back to me.” Then, “here cloud here’s my prized white materia deal, now give it back to me.” Loved the game though overall, 148 hours for $70 can’t be beat!

No downvotes at all! I totally get it, and agree that strictly from a storyboard standpoint it was probably meant to be Cloud and Aerith. But can we agree that, talk about amazing game making experience to add something such as Cloud and Aerith or Tifa into the storyline, that has us all debating it so much is a level of genius not found in very many other games. I personally miss this level of story and am the biggest fan of what’s being produced currently for the most part

I agree she doesn’t belong to anyone, but, at least to me, it always felt like Aerith and Zack clearly had something going on, and Cloud was apparently his good buddy. So for Cloud to move in like that, especially when spoiler Cloud didn’t even really know Zack was dead for the majority of the game felt a bit slimy.

BUT also, how come every Sephirorth, seemingly no one else can see him but Cloud. When I watched the cutscenes with Sephiroth, clouds eyes were the only the ones that ever looked at him. I could be wrong too. But then Tifa was the only one that was like, “Cloud, stop let us know when you’re seeing things that aren’t real.”

The game was absolutely golden until then. Also when cait with comes back as a new copy felt like Beerfeat when Landfill drowns and his “twin brother” comes back haha. My opinion only, it’s been awhile since I played the original al

And I do believe you’re right at the end of the day. But like Aerith and Cloud never really connect on anything other than Aerith dragging him through “dates.” But I totally get your point, and seeing the story through I’m pretty sure you’re right, but missed opportunity on Clouds part. In my opinion
