The upside to that is that the story feels tight and engaging, but yeah the downside is that it can be too lean...

@Bartimaeus From what I remember, and this was a long while ago, JKR had a board outlining the whole story fairly early on. Here is an example of it: This tells me that she is very much an architect instead of a gardener (outliner instead of a discovery writer). Now she could very well be somewhere in the middle (although the internet says she is very much on the architect side of things), where she outlines plot points, but does discovery writing of how the characters get there, but this still wouldn't affect the main character archetypes in the story, as those are usually closely tied to the plot.

Tbh, I was thinking the same thing when reading through your posts. Also, no mention of time-turners? People usually get stuck on that plot point the most.

Believe it or not TACL is still used too.

It's not true at all. At least from what I'm seeing now. The AI story may have been a tad bit oversold.

Trying to play both sides. Probably got something in exchange. On the topic of football, I do not follow it and would outright ban it for a while in Serbia. It's a sport that is completely controlled by the mob, so I would not be surprised if what was said above is true. There is a reason why we are so bad at it.

What's Baldur's Gate?

It looks plain bad to me. Don't know who their audience is for this and which player base are they hoping to catch with the Dragon Age name.

Furiosa. Arguably even better than Fury Road, if only it wasn't for the CGI... Don't get me wrong it doesn't ruin the film, but when compared to Fury Road it just leaves you wanting. The CGI wasn't terrible, but it was noticeable and the worst part is that they did it for the most random things... Apart from the CGI, Furiosa is still better played by Charlize Theron, but on the other hand Chris Hemsworth killed the role. The story is also more coherent than in the first part and no weird audio issues, but on the other hand the music was not quite as good. In the end what this move does best is hyping me up for part 3.

Ok, in that case I stand corrected and the trailer sucked ass.

You didn't get that from "Heroes" not "Companions" and the style of the trailer? To me it looks obvious they did a hard pivot.

You can draw some conclusions from it. One of them being that it's probably a live service game now.

So safe to say that Bioware no longer exists.

Blast from the past

She doesn't mention the pricing of those electronics compared to before the sanctions. I always wondered if Kazakhstan taxes the goods that go through their country to Russia.

You won't be disappointed with whichever of these you pick. Well except maybe Jojo...

I've not watched any of his movies, which is kind of impressive.

Why not just go with a good old fashioned horse.

I found it ok, but I never got around to book 3. Did start it, but I just wasn't in the mood for reading it. Have to give it a go one of these days.

Glad everything worked out in the end KP.
