That's true, but even in Shire Gandalf wouldn't even touch the ring. When he merely reached for it he got Sauron PTSD flashbacks and he physically stepped away in fear when Frodo tried to give the ring to him later. He uses Frodo to test whether it's cool after being heated in fire and I imagine this is for the same reason, not because he considers Frodo a good guinea pig for experimenting with metal heat dissipation.

Has 0 issues handling it in an envelope tho lol

I can give so many but you'll have to narrow down your preferences a bit ^^

I've recently been playing Remnant 2, Songs of Syx, Age of Darkness, dotAGE, Helldivers, Valheim, Against the Storm... all really impressive and amazing games made by (relatively) small studios or AA developers with a passion for games. If you're completely new to the indie scene you probably can't go wrong with Hades, Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Terraria

Abandon AAA, buy more indie or AA games and you'll find what you want

Frodo should have kept that envelope from the beginning of the movie, that thin slice of paper alone let Gandalf handle the ring when otherwise he wouldn't dare even touch it

It was a bit frightening for me to see how quickly the mob turned on AH during this fiasco and just how much vitriol and propaganda has been generated on the subreddit like this is any other ingame operation with the associated shitposting... except this time it could very well shape the futures of real people and fate of the company for years to come.

Unfortunately this is the only way to accomplish anything. If there wasn't an outcry like this both AH and sony would just ignore any criticism and move on until it gets buried and forgotten. It's a world of extremes and the scales could have easily tipped into the other side, with people rightfully complaining about these shitty practices but getting ridiculed for complaining about just another account or sth.

Does Fluent Reader count? Doesn't have an amazing interface but it's free and simple to use.

Tbf the social aspect was barely functional, I can't add friends from steam ingame since day one and we had trouble joining each other games if it was set to private.

So I wouldn't say perfectly fine but then again, no clue if them basing everything on a psn username would fix it either.

Well I dunno about others but I'm both playing less and when I do play, on higher difficulty missions people explore and open caches way less than in the early days.

While technically not paywalled, for me personally it's definitely going to end up being like that. Down the line that's be fine for a live service game but it's a 40€ purchase and it's only been a few months, I'm not sure I'm a fan of this model in the long run.

In terms of balance it does make sense tho, it was overshadowing EAT too much. Now it's more in line with it, it has better overall sustain and reliability but a smaller burst (1 every 30 vs 2 every 60). Also works with stratagem jammers,so it might be better for bots while EATs are for bugs.

Looks really promising but way too much in early access for me to risk that price tag, I'd rather try furthest frontier or the game from the settlers creator since they are further along iirc. I do look forward to trying it out one day tho, seems right up my valley if they manage to add some meaningful late game goals or challenges!

I had issues with mint but everything worked fine with PopOS. Not a large sample I know but my 2 cents
