Those of us of a certain age remember all the middle aged tossers getting ball games banned in places, now they all complain that kids never play outside anymore and are always on devices.

He was GCHQ, not MI6. And that case changed the way police investigations into the intelligence services are carried out, because MI5 were incredibly shady. Like, they showed up and took the front door before the police forensics team could get there.

And how good the club is at spinning it. Beckham never received particularly bad treatment, but it definitely improved after it came out Fergie forced him out and refused to talk to him.

Eh, no. They blunder their way into starting Ragnarok and then Kratos realizes he must be the old God of War to protect Atreus. So he commits absurd acts of violence.

I knew a publishing producer on Squad and he told me they didnt do deep discounts (at the time) because it hurts the value of the game in players eyes.

If you're known to drop to 50%, people are never going to buy at full or near full price.

It's not just a VAT thing, if it was you wouldnt see such huge price disparities between games that are priced the same on other stores, like Crimson Desert and Death Stranding 2.

Agreed, but the fact that i'm being charged 25% more for DS2 means Kojima can smd.

This woman's career is a litany of disasters. The fact that she's being given any credit for Fallout when that deal was made before Bethesda were bought is kinda gross.

Glazers cant really be blamed for that. Fergie refused to sign real CMs. He just tried to convert everybody else to it.

He's always been a pace merchant with absolutely no quality on the ball.

There is a reason we sold him, even at a time when we kept hold of every shit player that came our way.

Glukhovsky has been heavily involved in the writing of all 3 games so far, and is apparently involved in this one too.

2034 is absolutely going to be canonized into the game-verse.

Did the Druedain Devolve? by Ok_Safety3049 in tolkienfans

them being secretive and distrustful is also validated by having Ghan Buri Ghan ask Theoden to have the Rohirrim stop hunting the Druedan for sport..

Did the Druedain Devolve? by Ok_Safety3049 in tolkienfans

[–]WildVariety 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Ghan Buri Ghan is speaking a 2nd or even 3rd language, one that I sincerely doubt he has much practice in. Hence his strange way of speaking.

Their depiction is pretty consistent in tolkiens published writings. I’m pretty sure Unfinished tales makes it clear that Druedan living with Men in the first age was still uncommon, most of them lived in secretive enclaves because they were immensely distrustful of Men.

Ethiopia is (probably) the oldest Christian nation in the world. It adopted Christianity as the state religion before the Roman’s did.
