Agreed. As a game it was one of the best Ubi has done maybe ever imo.

It was. Most of it’s criticism comes from the fact that it’s not really an assassin’s creed game anymore. It was mostly far cry: ancient greece

And they’re the best at all of that.

I did try those exact tortellinis and I can tell when they’ve been frozen vs straight from the pack. It’s all in the texture not the taste. They get mushy as soon as they get hot enough even though I tend to undercook pasta because I like them very al dente. Totally edible but far, far worse than cooking fresh ones especially considering it’s almost the same time and effort. But don’t get me wrong I’m not arguing it’s stupid and that nobody should do it. I know not everyone has the opportunity to just go across the street to get fresh ingredients on a daily basis and freezing is a fantastic mean of conservation. It’s just a personal preference.

I’m honestly not. I’ve heard the captain obvious part sporadically, but never seen “have a rock”.

Ya it’s only been 20 years.

Never heard this expression in my life

Yeah and I’m again asking to explain it because to me it sounded like you asked me to take my meds.

What does '“take your rock” suppose to mean then?

What do you mean? Because it’s a valid explanation. It’s near impossible to fake a perfectly clear and high res, well focused image or video without showing artifacts of image manipulation. I do agree that a lot of those are taken in by amateurs on questionable gear, but I’ve yet to see a compelling video that cannot be debunked. And in the case of the navy or whatever army branch supposed sightings, I think those leave us with two options since they are so secretive on the subject ; it’s purposefully deceptive or it’s fabricated by third parties without consent. I want to believe but nothing ever comes out of those sightings so it’s very hard to be impartial.

Cause they’re fake.

I’d say generally any pasta or rice or veg will turn to paste if frozen. You kinda also lose any flavor apart from salty and sweet. But don’t misunderstand me, it’s fine and a very good way to conserve meals but you will lose most of the magic, the ice feels like it’s breaking everything down.

I’m always happy to put a throroughly frozen meal for 9 minutes in the wave instead of making any sort of effort. But freezing food kinda ruins most flavours and texture.

Too much tossing and topping and eggs. That’s three superfluous actions.

So I’ll reinforce my first suggestion to look into turn-based CRPG as a genre and see for yourself. That’s where you’ll find most of the mechanics you seem to want and you won’t have to take the opinions of strangers as to how much gore is too much for you.

Yes but it’s not all of the stuff, far from it

Is any form of violence or blood a no-no? If you can accept some, Larian (bg3’s developper) was already well known for the Divinity series. Many even say that BG3 is kind of Divinity:Original Sin 3 with a DnD license. You’ll still be killing some people though. Otherwise, I suggest searching for Turn-Based games which BG3 is. You might like Battletech which is a mech warrior themed game or the X-Com series where there’s an alien invasion.

And also, you might have been mislead by the videos. Yes the brain parasite is important but you’re really only directly dealing with mind flayers (the tentacle clad monsters) in the very beginning and very end. The rest is just a classic fantasy setting.

Right? And Roland has that deep menacing voice while Hart…

They could’ve at least went with Terry Crews if they really wanted a uber popular figure. He’s also far funnier.

Kevin Hart as Roland?

REALLY?

ANd If they don’t include Jack, they clearly have 0 understanding of what made this series any good.

I think we’ve been far more evil towards them than the other way around. We cut the most beautiful of them to make furniture after all.
