  • That's what Tolkien told us anyway.

  • As if that has changed anything about Activision.

  • This guy has some really good recipes.

    He can be a bit fuzzy on the amounts of the ingredients, but so far everything I've made is really good.

    I can highly recommend the Caribbean-Style Mango-Habanero Hot Sauce.

  • My chilies are ripening and I'm looking forward to trying out some new hotsauce recipes. Sadly, due to an aphid infestation killing all the new flowers, it'll be the only harvest this year.

    But with a bit of luck, the plants will survive the winter and bare fruit again next year.

  • Yep, all those arguments about Bethesda sucking at everything. The response used to be that they're really good at environmental storytelling. But this is what it amounted to... Bathroom Skeletons in funny poses.

  • Don't feel bad for them. Firewalk Studios may only have Concord to it's name, but the Devs are all from Bungie and Activision. That should already ring some alarm bells.

    They knew exactly what they were doing. They are the ones that sold the idea of Concord to Sony. For once I doubt Sony had to push for any of the bad decisions.

    They didn't waste $100 mill+ and 8 years development time on a random passion project. This was designed for a single reason, to make money in ridiculous amounts. To squeeze every penny out of kids and their parents.

    I can't feel bad for anyone that worked on something like that when it fails.

  • Only to be played for business purposes!

    The Prophecy of the Glowing Pale Ass has been fortold by my Farmers Tan.

  • I'm honestly worried about the fanatisism surrounding US politics.

    From the outside it looks downright horrifying.

  • Only after I started doing it myself did I realize how much our parents/older siblings were messing with us by mispronoucing the shit we cared about as kids.

  • As with all precious gems, stones and metals. It's only worth something if someone wants to buy it.

    This lady saw it's practical worth, as a doorstop. I have to admit, I'm with her on this one.

  • I think they did. As people keep saying the gameplay was fun. It's everything else that doesn't work.

  • Well, the Dev Studio is made up of Bungie and Activision crew.

    So yeah, I don't think anyone got their arm twisted too hard. Concord seems very much in their wheelhouse. A rip-off live-service game with massive mtx potential.

  • People don't learn a damned thing.

    Some know and stay away from this type of shit. But everyone else will keep repeating the same mistake over and over again.

    And that is why non of us get to have nice things.

  • No no, I just see "Underrated" used a lot about things that really aren't underrated. It's become a bit of a pet peeve for me. (Like when someone calls REM an underrated band. Like, they are world renowned. They're just old and broken up.)

    And I'm also pointing out a likely reason for them not being talked about as much as other titles in the same genre. Aside from going through the game with different roles, the first game just doesn't have a lot of replay value. Not a lot of 'Choice & Consequence' or things to discover. There's your Char and what God you choose to side with in the end. That's kinda it.

    Good games, but not exactly riveting.
