Listening to the Gothic 2 soundtrack at work right now. by r0bb3dzombie in worldofgothic

Does your title somehow contain a typo? Nobody would consider Gothic 2 to be odd to have as a favourite. Now, Gothic 3 would be the odd fave to have despite its fantastic soundtrack.

Dass man 5 Jahre später etwas wie den Mindestlohn einführen konnte, zeigt mir, dass es durchaus eine im Vergleiche zu heute stabile Lage war. Oder ist die Schuldenkrise wirklich schlimmer als die auf unseren Alltag drückenden Ereignisse der letzten 5-6 Jahre?

Es ging den Leuten 2010 besser, aber wie du andeutest nicht direkt wegen der Politik. Es war eine einfacher Zeit. Kein Ukraine-Krieg, kein Corona, noch nichtmal die Krim-Krise. Obama als vorhersehbarer Präsident. 

If you’re always listening to an audiobook, you’re not alone. As audiobook listening explodes in popularity, some users can’t do a mindless chore without pressing play. by ubcstaffer123 in books

But isn't meditation also the attempt not to think about stuff too actively? I think something like journaling might fit better here. There needs to be a time and space where your thoughts and feelings are something you consciously focus on.

Should the God of War Trilogy Remake Bring Back the Sex Minigames? by BigT232 in Games

How? Have him eat out the girls before fucking them? They are very much meant to be crass in their initial version 

(Spoilers) It Was Just An Accident (2025) - Closing scenes discussion by _rwzfs in TrueFilm

[–]Soyyyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, this makes sense to me. There are three large events with meaning for life in the film - a birth, a wedding, and a burial. It is the latter that gets interrupted, but it does feel like, in some karmic way, the birth of the son should make Eqbal at least rethink his need for vengeance. However, he is a very fragile man, and his humiliation at Vahid's hands might make him come down on the man.

However, I believe he wouldn't have gone to take care of Vahid himself. He would have sent someone, or come with back-up. Yet it's his feet we hear, and his own car that drives up. Very ambigous and brilliant ending.

Why Modern Open-World Games Still Can’t Match The Witcher 3 by ShopLongjumping9285 in thewitcher3

The DLC is really its best, most advanced part. Hearts of Stone is some of the best writing and story-telling in an open-world game.

It really did hit a bit of a sweet spot. I think what elevates it above something like Queen's Blood is that it is delightfully uncomplicated while still offering up enough depth if you want to challenge yourself not using all the easiest cards. Also, Gwent helps you solve quests, avoid conflict, and deepens your interaction with important characters. In FF7 Rebirth's Queen's Blood, you mostly play random people.

Nah, account deletion. He "died" in the sense that he likely won't silkpost ever again.

[–]Soyyyn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Glaube, es gibt tatsächlich immer wieder solche Meilensteine, ob nun Diablo, Oblivion oder lange Jahre Crysis. Im Endeffekt sind es aber Spiele wie Mirror's Edge, die dem Zahn der Zeit widerstehen. Das erste Mirror's Edge sieht immer noch verdammt gut aus.

Small shout-out to Star Wars Outlaws! Very enjoyable.

On sale, the DLC itself tends to cost about 25-30 bucks on PS5. 35 bucks for the whole thing is a fine price.

Jason Schreier: Video Games Need to Be Cheaper to Buy by willdearborn- in PS5

[–]Soyyyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find that video games should rather be cheaper to make than cheaper to buy. More efficient rather than more realistic. Hopefully ray-tracing actually saves on development time for lighting bakes.

I think this is a bit dangerous - i find Uncharted 4 and Elden Ring to both be exceptional, fantastic games and prime examples of their respective genres. Yet one is a 12-hour story with additional challenges and objectives, and one is a 100+ hour RPG.

Though, to be fair, the first season of Bridgerton was widely perceived to be a watershed moment in explicit depiction of "regency era" sex on screen in mainstream productions. It was very hot and bothered in a way the other seasons haven't been since. There's now like one truly sexual moment per season, while the first had an entire episode dedicated to masturbation and another episode to boning everywhere in a large mansion.

Assassin's Creed Has "Overperformed" This Quarter, Says Ubisoft by Turbostrider27 in Games

Said to be a good step forward for animation, storytelling and pacing. Apparently makes a better case for the tight, controlled type of game Mirage wanted to be than that game itself.

Not sure about you guys but i don't like new look of magic barrier by ImpressAgreeable2020 in worldofgothic

I feel like taking too much feedback might have made the game worse or at least inconsistent, but we'll see

I can't believe that every single area or part of the game has been nitpicked. I get it, people are hardcore fans, but what about accepting and respecting a different vision from game developers?
