I have cousins and friends who were teens during the siege of Sarajevo(1992-1996), few of them did join defenders. By their own words, circumstances forced them to grow up and mature real fast. It's not really post apocalyptic, just "regular" warzone. Sure, no zombie fungus, just regular human...

Depends how much of source material they have. 4 seasons is maybe streching it, but if S3 also has 7 episodes (or even 6), there could be case made to justify making S4. S2 needed one more episode. If they are going for Abby as S3 lead, they needed to give her more screen time for audience to...

For people that primarily enjoy gaming for the sake of playing the game, online play is great. It gives much more flexibility in scheduling, opens up more people to play with and cuts down on logistics. It's great tool. For people like my group and me, gaming isn't only about playing game...

Sorry to hear that. I had something similar happen back in younger days. Our HS gaming group fell apart when HS ended. One player moved to another city for university, DM and other player went to do mandatory military service, another one just stopped answering texts. So no gaming for year and a...

But they got rights for adaptation of both games, so it would be waste not to do it. There is enough game fans to justify it. No Pedro, no show is problem of their own making. If you frame entire season as Joel and Ellie story and set them up as only protagonists of the show, kiling of one of...

I like to finish the season. Also, i was interested in what way would Ellie's character arc and character development go or would any of the remaining characters get more spotlight ( kind a hoped for more focus on Tommy to be honest, he seemed like an interesting character). I quite liked S1...

Like i said, i haven't played the game so i'm not familiar with the story in the game. Also, game and tv shows are different media types. What works for one, doesn't necessary works for other. From the perspective of S1, it was framed as a story about Joel and Ellie, with their relationship and...

Never played the games. So i'm commenting this just from tv series perspective. Wife and i watched seasons 1 and 2 back to back. Killing of Joel was point at which i decided i'm done with show. Sure, killing protagonist's isn't anything new, but this was story about Joel and Ellie. It didn't...

One of the bigger problem with ranger is that his main niche isn't really that prominent in modern adventures and that other classes have better and more efficient ways to deal with same problems. One of his main shticks is that ranger is wilderness survival expert. Yet, by tier 2...

Most of PF1 classes are subpar and niche and frankly, just bloat. In classed systems, few good classes, where each one covers specific niche and doesn't step on other classes toes is better than dozens of very niche classes with large overlaps and small differences. But it's more matter of...

Why not? In real life, George Foreman named all his five sons - George Edward Foreman. No reason not to do same in make pretend game :D

By OP logic, there are decent chunk of classes that are superfluous. Paladin - martial version of cleric. Druid- nature cleric. Warlock- goth cleric (still spell beggar) . Bard - music magic version of rogue. Barbarian - rage fighter. Ranger - fighter with SERE training. Might as well go with...

With so much media moving to digital streaming platforms and physical releases dvindling, some movies are harder and harder to find legally. As a fan of older movies, mostly B action flicks from 80s and 90s, good chunk of them aren't on any platforms. Same for good part of movies from 60-70s.

Lets see. All prices in euros Netflix - 12.99 Disney+ -8.99 ( annual plan is 89.99 so i use that one) Max - 9.99 ( but i use yearly plan for 99.99) YT premium - 14.60 Spotify premium - 10.99 Croatian national television -11 (this is odd one, it's called subscription, but it's kind of mandatory...

SaaS subs. Those can add up pretty fast without noticing even if we are talking about regular consumer SaaS and not professional level software. Looking at my own, Netflix, HboMAX, Disney+, Yt premium, Spotify premium. Granted, most of those are family tiers and shared (while we still can do that).

Spotify is in essence library model. You pay fee and are free to consume whatever is in their current catalog. You are paying for access in essence, you don't pay for any specific piece content that's there. Don't know about iTunes, but it's probably similar to Amazon. You don't actually buy...

I don't have problem with licensing or subscriptions per se. I have problem with lack of transparency and unilateral right of provider to revoke it at any time. I would much rather have strict, black on white, time frame. FE if i buy license to read book from amazon, then give me clear time...

Same. I want option to make backup copy that i can actually use. I want option to move it freely between devices without using proprietary app. Amazon just recently updated wording on their kindle store for USA. It now reads - “By placing your order, you're purchasing a license to the content...

Isn't whole point of epub format that it's device agnostic? I know that Amazon likes it's proprietary kfx ( and older mobi/azw) formats so they can lock in books into their eco system.

I read on ancient Kindle keyboard 3g. Have it since college days, still works. For some things to even work, there is some computer magic involved that's in the legal grey area ( not well defined in national legislative). I tend to not really buy, but borrow from city library. 7e for yearly...
