When I read of historical conquerors and dictators, I always wonder where the heck do they get their drive to do all that.
Like, I struggle to wake up on mondays, spend wednesdays hoping that the weekend comes soon, and on saturday I lay on the sofa and do nothing for 24 hours straight.
This guy invaded a foreign land he didn’t need just because he felt barely offended by the words of its inhabitants. He should’ve appreciated the humour and moved on imo, but maybe that’s just me.
Damn, I knew the moon was just a slice of cheese, but I didn’t know that neutron stars were a dairy product, as well. The universe really hates lactose intolerant people.
Ehy, don’t worry, mistakes happen. I’m sorry you got downvoted to oblivion.
It’s Thailand, not Taiwan.
Fuck this government.
Absolutely stunning, thanks for sharing!
I’m Italian.
Four years ago the DDL Zan, a law that sought to fight language and deeds that amount to religious, political and racial discrimination by adding aggravating factors for sexual orientation, gender and gender identity, was proposed.
Among its detractors, the Vatican itself, who urged Italy to stop the law because, according to them, the Law calls into question church’s ‘freedom of organisation’ and threatens ‘freedom of thought’.
While those cartoonish evil cults aren’t common, they are not the only evil religious organizations in the world. The head of one of the abrahamic religions, and one of the most popular religions in the world, fought against the freedom of my fellow LGBT+ individuals because of their supposed right of hate speech, apparently. So no, it’s not an American perspective, and yes, all religions are evil.
Religion is ignorance and refusal to face reality.
As long as people behave, treat others, and vote according to the sacred scriptures written by a crackhead thousands of years ago, and their influence shapes the world around me and puts a limit to my freedom, then there will be no distinction between religion and extremism. The lesser of two evils is still evil.
We’re there already, at least in Italy.
During the summer months, most of our rivers dry up almost completely and lots of our territories face severe drought. It’s a problem for the agriculture, for the local fauna, and for the citizens as well, and it has happened for a few years consecutively, but nobody cares.
Territories that were always covered in a thick layer of snow during winter, now are green at New Year’s. Glaciers melt and almost disappear. I don’t know what will be of this country a few years from now.
Dude, no one here is shocked or angry. There are just normal people calmly discussing ways to bypass yet another attempt from Google to stop AdBlockers. If anything, you’re the guy who spent the entire day yesterday screeching at people in another thread who don’t want to pay for YT Premium, and is still doing the same thing now, in a community dedicated to piracy no less. You just deleted the vast majority of your comments because you were too embarrassed when people called you out for licking the boots of a trillion-dollars corporation and being angry at other people who don’t want to follow your example.
Go touch some grass, it’s free (just like YouTube!).
Due to wars and castles being torn down as to prevent rebellions or just for the materials during ottoman times Baba Vida remains the only fully intact castle in Bulgaria.
What a shame. This castle is so beautiful. I can’t help but wonder how much history we lost.
I live in a small town in Italy and apparently we had a castle, but it was torn down two centuries ago and what remains today is just half the remains of one of the towers. Makes me sad every time I walk past it.
Really beautiful. Never heard of it, thanks for sharing!
What a lovely art style.
The way it moves seamlessly from isometric to 3rd person shooter is cool. The pixel art is very good-looking. I hope the game turns out to be fun.
It’s worth mentioning that there is a demo available on Steam: Holstin Steam Page
I see mobile games as the natural evolution of flash games from the old days. I used to spend my time playing those games and I had fun, but I would never insist on them being the best experience I’ve ever had in gaming. They were just cute games to spend some time on. To use your examples, Minigore is just like Boxhead. It may be fun but there’s nothing “genius” or ground-breaking about it.
In the end, gaming is just an experience, and our emotional attachment to it decides our rating. I hardly care about Call of Duty, but the people who spent their childhood playing online with friends rate it as one of their best/most formative gaming experiences. Surprise, people’s opinions on things are subjective.
By the way, as you’re the same guy who dunked on Uncharted, The last of us, God of war and Witcher for being games that rely too much on story exposition and have too little gameplay, you seem to have a preference for games with zero/near zero story and offer immediate gratification via gameplay. That’s also a characteristic that lots of mobile games share, so that may shape your preference as well.
Personally, I rate mobile games very low because I hate their monetization and I despise touch controls.
And still no news of the sequel.
Rewards is being moved from its own app to the Xbox app. Everything will keep working as usual.
A shame. I really like BandCamp and I’ve bought tons of albums from it. If it dies, I’m not sure what the alternative is supposed to be. I despise subscription services, I don’t want to use Spotify or the likes.
This was a fascinating read. And unfortunately something that I suspect happens in quite a lot of development teams around the world.
