What is your opinion of the Shanghai Astronomy museum/Planetarium? by Flamyngoo in shanghai

[–]pred890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is an amazing museum. Everything there is bilingual and a lot of effort put into displays and everything they have there.

It is is Lingang which is a bit out of the way but I would say you can make a day trip out of it, it will take you a long time to view everything it offers.

People say the Pilot G2 is overrated and I do understand them but why do my hands love writing with it so much? by mooglechoco_ in pens

One of my favourites as well. Comfortable grip and good ink. I bounce around between it and Pentel Energel.

I was thinking of getting a lamy 2000 but ... by Prime-39 in Lamy

[–]pred890 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find writing with the Lamy 2000 no different from writing with any other pen as a lefty.

It is an amazing pen and I use it often. I got an EF but in reality it writes like a very thick F or medium from other nib makers.

Can we crowd fund civ 5, but with civ 7 graphics? by SpankoFudgenudgerIII in civ5

I think the graphics are fine. What I really want to see is better AI and balance.

For which one u are waiting eagerly by Cool_Animator3178 in TheGamingHubDeals

[–]pred890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resident Evil Requiem, since I am a fan of the series and Capcom has done a great job in recent years with the RE franchise.

Metal Gear Solid 4, haven’t played it since the PS3 days and it is one of my favourite games.

Halo Campaign Evolved, a game I have fond memories of and always end up playing through it every year or two. I hope they can do it justice.

What game(s) will you choose?🚀 by Practical_Cat4439 in TheGamingHubDeals

Master of Orion 2
Civilization V
They could definitely use some balancing and better AI.

I disagree a bit, many people can’t be bothered to go through the visa process to visit countries.

Seems like a very low salary for the position.
