I do get a craving for McDonalds fries that I give into probably once or twice per year. Usually I’ll get a Big Mac combo, or a couple McMenu sandwiches. The other surprising factor aside from the absurd price is how mediocre the flavour has gotten. While it was never culinary art, it somehow tastes even less like food than I remember just years ago.
I’m disappointed every time.
The same package in Germany is 500g, so maybe there is an element of shrinkflation as well.
This is getting to be a better and better option with Google and Samsung promising more than 3yrs of OS updates.
I was trying to use a mandolin to remove the wax from a section of Gouda cheese, and slipped. Chopped off about 3mm of my thumb and about 5mm of thumbnail.
Yeah it was a disappointing release. I haven’t played since launch so I’m not sure if that has changed or not.
Company of heroes 3 released last year
Ah thank you for pointing that out – I saw it first thing in the morning on my phone and completely misread it.
I don’t think the first one is completed – the story hasn’t yet reached it’s conclusion, which some seem to be disappointed at seeing them moving onto a sequel already (if that ends up being the case). On top of that, there is also DLC, which rubs some wrong for the same reason.
Really annoying they didn’t mention the first and second games.
It’s hard to get excited for this game given how much hell it seems to have been through. I’ll keep following the development, but cautiously to say the least.
I also enjoyed my playthrough of the game, and am looking forward to what Bethesda does. I’ve gotten my money’s worth, but I’m hoping they manage to do much more with the game than what’s currently available (but it’s fine if they don’t as well).
I also think that a lot of the criticisms are completely valid – Personally the missions and story were enjoyable enough for me, and the systems were neat to explore, but 8 years on from FO4, and a generation later and the game still suffers from the same engine limitations, further exacerbated by the scope they decided to reach for.
I’m playing through MGS2 right now for pretty much the first time (I did try it on Xbox, but didn’t make it past the first boss encounter with Olga). I played through MGS the last few weeks, and it’s always interesting to me to see a series develop over generations.
I have been playing some Crysis 3 as well since I never finished it. It’s enjoyable enough, and I love the nature-taken metropolis setting (also loved it in Crysis 2, and in TLoU 1+2).
Ground Branch is another one that I’ve been firing up regularly to play a round of Terrorist Hunt. There is a beta out right now with new AI mechanics, which is breathing some new life into it. I backed the game years ago (2017), and watching the development has been fun (if a bit slow).
Last one for me is Enshrouded – I’m less than 2hrs into it and still deciding if I’ll keep it. I’m itching for a new survival game, and so I’m hoping to try the Nightingale playtest this weekend, and then decide which one to commit to.
From what I’ve read, parts of it were repurposed into COD:Ghosts, which released following (and is generally considered to be one of the worst main enteries in the series).
As someone with a Garmin Instinct Solar, the unlimited battery is really dependent on your habits. You really need to be exposed to the sun for long periods on a daily basis for it to noticeably charge via solar. Still though the idea of a watch that you never need to charge is really neat.
Garmin Instinct has a 30d battery. I’ve used one for just over a year and it’s all I need from a connected watch.
I mean them adding it to other games retroactively is enough to justify not giving them anymore money. Really disappointed in them personally.
Did they add DRM to DD too?! I had started a playthrough on my Steam deck but I guess the game won’t work now. What a shitty thing to do.
What type of purchases are there? Anything required?
It feels like the days of 5EUR döner are in the past now. I see for 7 or 8 EUR sometimes.
