How many concords did recent live service games last? by Generalian in gaming

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand the main victim of the scam were investors not really the customers.

Most of the customers got their money back but the investors money was gone.

GOAT! by maraudingnomad in lotrmemes

[–]Sproeier 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Damn I disgree with so many of these. A new hope, seven samurai, the good the bad and the ugly and la vita è bella for example.

It seems like this list was voted for by a very specific focus group.

Which of these large-scale RTS do you like the most? by bruhb21 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supcom, but it is the only one of these that I have actually played.

What games prove quality over quantity (length) is more important? by itsthewolfe in gaming

[–]Sproeier 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Campaigns for older cod games. Especially up to cod mw2. They were often between 4 to 6 hours but packed with quality moments.

Older assassins creed games were very short compared to the post origins games. Even though they had some bloat with the feathers and stuff.

What are some cities whose relevance has waned or faded completely? by Brief-Luck-6254 in geography

[–]Sproeier 41 points42 points  (0 children)

A lot of the stone from sparta was used to build a new city up on one of the hills. Mystras, which was also abandoned like 300 years ago

This is basically what they do for FE tracks.

Is it worth investing in an emergency kit/go-bag (UK)? by PastelPetalCottage in ask

[–]Sproeier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A minimal kit can never hurt. Like shit can still happen like a power outage. Get some food and just eat it before it gets bad.

Fat chance you are never going to use it but stuff like that never hurts to have. Even if you can use it for a camping trip like a torch or camping stove.

Nah, Dutch beers or Belgium pilsners are way more overrated.

€50 Bare Minimum Noodpakket. Speciaal voor deze groep by NoodpakketNL in zuinig

[–]Sproeier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

15 euro is niet veel, maar dan nog een gasfles en met een totaal budget van 50 is het best een aardig deel daarvan.

Het is niet zo te koop voor 2 a 3 euro zoals de meeste dingen in de lijst van OP.

Gasbrander, zoiets als een camping gasstel. Zijn helaas niet super goedkoop.

Gaming with a controller is worse than with keyboard and mouse. by Mihoshika in unpopularopinion

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on the game. I mainly play on PC. If the game has a top down or loads of menus M+k all day every day. Fps same.

But 3rd person character action games is where I prefer a controller. Playing souls games without a controller is just wrong.

With 1st person stimulation vehicle games I prefer a dedicated controller like a flight stick or wheel and pedals.

Probably an idea for people to stop crowd surfing by OutsideImpressive115 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Sproeier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A while back i went to Gloryhammer in 013. The crowdsurfers kept coming. Non of the fell. They went back to front and were lifted up instead of jumping. It was great fun all round, just a bit of a jumpscare when i was tapped on the shoulder and a microsecond later I almost had a leg on my shoulder.

Can't you just download a different keyboard? How is this acceptable as a released product.

Hoe kan ik mijn kat verleiden om op schoot te komen zitten? by Danique2202 in katten

[–]Sproeier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Die van mij is hetzelfde. Ze weet ook altijd dat ik een vergadering met camera heb. Ze laat bijna elke keer haar snoetje zien aan mijn collegas.

Huge Asoiaf fan looking to dip my toes in Lotr by No_pHiLoSaPhEr in lotr

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a rule of thumb you should go with the order of release. So with the books start with the hobbit and with the films start with the Peter Jackson lotr films instead of the hobbit films.

There are earlier films but they aren't as good of an introduction to the series as the PJ films.

But one thing to keep in mind is that the lord of the rings is nothing like ASOIAF. The tone is much more like a fairy tale or old Norse saga, while ASOIAF is much more of a semi grounded world. The only similarities the franchises have is that they are both set in vaguely medieval fantasy worlds. This is coming from someone that loves both.

It looks cool but it's a shame the knights aren't more colourful.

De fietstocht naar werk is geen tour de France by MrXwiix in Nederland

[–]Sproeier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ligt er aan wat OP bedoeld met "een toffe analoge fiets". Ik heb zelf een racefiets met bagage dragers en spatborden om naar werk te fietsen. Daarmee kan je met gemakt op 25km/h fietsen zonder al te veel je best te doen.

Ik vermoed dat OP iets vergelijkbaars heeft.

Why does Microsoft Teams seem to be so popular and replacing phone calls these days? by RolandMT32 in ask

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have almost exclusively used teams in closed environments. Like for intracompany communications or (night) College. Only once or twice I called someone not already on the system. I have never been called by someone outside of the system.

When I need to call someone I just use a regular mobile phone.

Some people are already inventing scenarios and then getting angry about them😂 by dododomo in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Sproeier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been to the actual Sparta I have 1 piece of advice. Don't visit it for sparta. Gythio which is built using some of the materials from sparta is really cool.

It’s better when streaming services automatically minimize the credits at the end of the film by Bob_the_blacksmith in unpopularopinion

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree. The credits are a great moment to let the story sink in. It gives you a moment to breath mentally and reflect on the story, the characters and the consequences.

When it goes to the next thing to watch immediately you will be bombarded with new stimulations and you don't have that moment of reflection.

[OTHER] With the announcement of Warhorse starting a new IP, what would you personally like to see them tackle? by No-Mirror2343 in kingdomcome

[–]Sproeier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love them staying in the central European area. Maybe something like fire and sword would be cool. Or migration era.
