I “fire” traditional recurve bows and honestly it ends up being a lot of core, back, and your front side shoulder, but this image is funnier.

I guess also another thing that gets me is when they are fire from the hip, with no anchor point. You draw back the bow to the same spot every time, then move your bow hand to aim. Radically changing how you draw, while hitting precision shots at varying range is like John Whicking archery, but nearly everyone with a bow in movies can do it. And they almost never wear gloves on a bow that has to be hundreds of pounds of draw to go through armor. How are your fingers not worn to bone?

Also arrows are pretty custom depending on draw weight, tip weight, draw length, and there are various types. Where do these perfect arrows you need all come from, hrmmm Legolas?

I am now realizing I took this meme way too seriously, but I’ve already typed it up, so here we are.

No, you just don’t understand tariffs. I think about other countries a lot, like how they have to pay us, like so much money. We’re all going to be rich.

Unions are rare here and trying to organize anything just gets you fired and jobless. Plus people are struggling just to eat, they can’t all strike. It’s really not that simple.

I live in Utah, it’s about 90% people cheering at Trump and 10% very polite demonstrations against the right that are highly criticized. Feels so muted here.

I get that you like it for historical accuracy but I’m just saying it wasn’t there. The link I gave shows how it never was. It never was accurate man. AC Shadows is just more if the same, not some departure from it.

Yasuke isn’t special. They’ve done this with tons of people, they did it with Cleopatra for instance. They did it with lots of real people, just look at that link that breaks it down.

It’s not missing the point like you claim. It’s you applying an expectation of realism on a series that never had it.

it’s inconsistent with Ubisoft’s previous approach of keeping the events and characters as true to history as good gameplay would allow

In pervious games they mention DaVinci and his creations for the Assassin’s. He was a real person. But he didn’t craft weapons for a league of Assassin’s. Plenty of their games have historical figures, acting like this is the first one to take liberties is silly.

but there should maybe be a disclaimer that Yasuke’s real role in history is not truly known, but they chose the most fun version of events, even if it’s likely untrue.

As they have done with many events and figures in past games. Someone has already taken the time to break this down in great detail. The TL;DR is they never had historical accuracy like you seem to think, ever.

I hate to break it to you but the cyclops in AC Odyssey isn’t real either. They’ve never been historical accurate. They are loosely inspired by past events at best.

So the people being racist, it’s not them, it’s the guy playing a game that has races people don’t like.

I have a feeling if the suite came from a company as big as Nintendo people wouldn’t be laughing.

Listen you can whine about tech or you can start building with it.

And by building, I mean telling it what it should do.

And by telling it what it should do, I mean typing out what you want.

And by telling it what you want, I mean explaining a crypto bro idea in a rant to Chat GPT.

I mean he’s not technical but I’m sure he’s really nailed this one.

I actually build a full copy of the DB on the client machine. That way I can’t lose the data, it’s all right there and so fast.

Well if none of them can have an adult conversation that happens. I’ve “debated” with them on here and it devolved into Twitter. Insults, grand claims with no evidence. Yes, we’ve created an echo chamber where you have to actually prove what you say, and they couldn’t survive. I’m ok with that.

Or passenger train. One that can go long distances, isn’t limited by your physical ability, and can remain climate controlled so my ice cream doesn’t melt on a 20 minute bike ride in the summer. Also time, if I’m at a party and we need more drinks or whatever, being gone for an hour to bike there and back isn’t the best.

Bike in sub zero weather with snow and ice everywhere, that’s far from nice for me.

Too bad money goes directly to the publisher to decide who gets what.

I don’t think Open AI is getting much from me with “this is what is in my fridge, what can I make to eat.”

I agree, is why I said at least. That matches the current offering people are already embedded in. Now you need to entice. I think the biggest issue they face is how much history people have with that platform, there already so bought in. Literally. With tons of games, friends, and achievements already there, it would take a ton for most people to just walk away from that.

I’m saying that if they want to compete with another company they need a compelling offer, one that at least has feature parity on the big ticket items. Yes, you would then need to work to attract people, but a bare bones store front like they have is a huge roadblock. People feeling like making the switch means they lose things is not a way to encourage adoption.

It’s important to me that I have no goal or purpose, and I will focus on making that come true no matter that.

A few that come to mind

• The review system isn’t nearly as good
• Tag searching is a joke compared to steam
• No steam achievements
• No direct access to updates and patch notes
• No game activity log, showing achievements you got and friends activity

• No mobile app
• Nothing like steam work shop
• No DLC downloading management like steam
