He does have a perfect face for that. Lots of “texture” with wrinkles and all that, but still good looking imo (and expressive)

My bet is on some Fourier transform fuckery

I did. That’s why I deleted it but I guess that didn’t federate to your instance as fast as my fuckup

Have you ever noticed Ron Pearlman looks just like Hellboy too ?

Disclaimer for OP : IIRC it also takes quite a long time to test large amounts of RAM

Eh, there are plenty of FOSS software that implement it just fine, but I know for a fact that the default image viewers of some major distros don’t

And then they try to fuck you over when you leave the place by pinning all the costs of normal dilapidation on you. Fortunately where I live the law forbids it but it doesn’t stop them from trying every time.

Yeah I saw that this morning when I tried to find the next article. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

Yeah, I’m looking forward to reading the rest of this series. Thanks for sharing OP !

My friends who were all disappointed by 2042 are basically all proudly taking the bait already…

Edit : oh also I forgot, EA expects it to sell 100 MILLIONS UNITS. They’re literally setting it up to fail even if it’s the most successful game ever in the franchise by a factor of 4. Or their execs are wildly incompetent. At this point I can’t be sure which one it is

French one is actually mostly correct, but the expression is not used that much

OG one. I think you’re right, I forgot because that year went by fast but I received it the next year

Are you from the US ? I procrastinated my preorder and did it a week after they opened them, and I think I got in wave 2 (western Europe).

Might be one of these mattresses with a “break” in the middle so they fold better.

Yes there was drama, but I feel like you’re downplaying just how bad they overpromised and underdelivered. As a huge CDPR fan since The Witcher 2, (I even preordered TW3 collectors edition the first day it was available for preorder, even though I usually don’t preorder). That release eroded a lot of the trust I had in them, even though I didn’t preorder this one since I could smell the bs from miles away.

I actually got the game for like 6 bucks on Steam during the last sale and I’m now having a blast playing through the actually stable and release-ready version. But I feel like I can still see the scars of the rushed development on the game’s main story progression. Like, I’m convinced that act 1 was supposed to be much longer and more fleshed out. Because I can’t explain why a game that has quite literally the most immersive dialogue sequences in the entire industry (in a gigantic open world FPS, of all things) would have you watch a montage of you doing a bunch of cool things with a very cool character instead of actually having you playing through them. Also you can’t convince me that montage was literally supposed to be a vertical slice of act 1 but they had to “salvage” it and actually put it 1:1 in the game because they were legally on the hook for releasing it as an early story trailer with a giant “scenes captured in engine” text.

They might go back on the “preorder worthy” list if they can abstain from blowing up the next game’s hype to the moon and ride it regardless of the actual state of development. And burning out all their best talent on crunch death marches.

Edit: oh, also I have to rant about this trend I’m seeing a lot recently where uninformed gamers are now blaming the… publisher for all of this, apparently not realizing that they are self-published.

They also granted the head of Unit 731 immunity (specifically from the USSR who rightly wanted him executed) in exchange for the human experimentation data.

“Experimentation” data that was entirely useless, if I remember correctly.

As far as I know they can all act as a bootleg external wifi adapter though (via USB sharing)

I’m having a lot of fun playing mount and blade : bannerlord. The combat is satisfying and the game has quite a lot of depth. It can be a bit overwhelming but I think it’s worth the 2h attempt. For the power fantasy part : get good at polearms and riding, get yourself a glaive, optionally download the mod that allows you to hit several enemies with a single swing and mow down lines of infantry with each charge.

Also, blizzard bad but Diablo is fun

So is that watch gottem
