From all I've seen, this is a very cool game, I've just never had the opportunity to play through it for myself other than a demo on the original Xbox.

I think it's available on Steam. I'll pick it up and give it a go!

Thank you for the recommendation.

Oh my god, you are a legend. Thank you so much for letting me know about these mods. I didn't even think to check for them.

Going to have an insane amount of fun with it again!

And yeah. So many people that I recommended it to thought it was just AoE 2 again. But as you say, it actually has a ton more complexity. And the map editor and storylines were pretty awesome too.

All excellent choices from the ones I know. I particularly love galactic battlegrounds (also you're the first person I've met that's ever heard of it!) And Episode 1: racer.

You seem to have good taste, so I'll check out Rogue Squadron and Phantom Menace!

And obviously these are just my opinions, I can't fault anyone else for what they prefer.

My personal overall fav is Kotor 2. It's so good.

Hell yes. Second best star wars games ever made after the Kotor games. Instant buy for me.

Which I totally understand. But, it doesn't make him likeable to me.

It's like in the MCU Spiderman movies, how it shows Flash's parents don't really care about him and implies that's why he's a bully. Like sure, that is awful for him. But it doesn't make him not a bully anymore, you know?

And I also don't judge other people that do like him, to each their own. Just for me, his entire personality and character is like nails on a chalkboard.

All I ever got from him was super rapey vibes. Nothing charming about that slimeball from my perspective.

And he feigns elegance, but it never struck me as authentic. Just a manipulation technique.

No matter how strong he is, I can never get over how insufferable his personality and voice are

I agree that it's unlikely that we'll ever get a better adaptation. But to say that PJ's adaptions were perfect is a bit insulting to the books. They weren't great adaptions. Good movies on their own, but PJ was very opinionated and they weren't super faithful.

If you're being serious, you should probably know they're on sale right now and quite cheap.

Oh, I used to like Krita. That's disappointing that they're yet another on the AI train

That's the last thing we need... An entmoot.

Barely anything was left in the library by the time it burned down. It's quite a myth that all that much was lost at all. By the time of its destruction, most of its books and knowledge has been moved elsewhere due to decades of reduced funding and support.

Furthermore, the burning did not destroy the entire library. It was a gradual process over a long period of time. What destroyed far more of the books is a lack of care to copy them. Paper and papyrus don't last that long, so the only way to permanently maintain them was by copying them out again. Which is a lot of work.

 

First post. Hope this is okay? Couldn't see any rules so I'm just posting some food that I made
