    There was other sources, but the tree had a super deposit and was basically a motherlode. That combined with “lol fuck the aliens” made it an easy choice for the corporation

    Avatar (2009)

    Avatar was entertaining for what it was , had good audience appeal, and was more akin to an amusement park ride if you got the 3D experience But the IP vanished in the minds of most of the world after

    Lost Ark Online

    The comparison between TF2 and LA was the biggest gotcha. Most games followed predictable day/night cycles in terms of population peaks and valleys with approximately the same variance. He even included games popular in Europe, like DOTA and CS. TF2 and LA had much less variance, which helps...

    Furor's 14 Days rant & First Look at WoW

    That would only work for a low budget indie title that only cares about just being heard of and doesn't care if they are a one-hit wonder (ie, even bad publicity is publicity). The whole Blizzard thing is too fresh in people's minds, he would be toxic waste to most marketing right now to slap...

    It's still a dumb goal, because it is subjective and can technically never be achieved. Getting called out on that is fine

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This fight is pretty nuts - saving Hauchebro results in him and Ysale holding back dragons in p6. Hsravelger also has a thing where if anyone in the raid dies to his mechanics, he goes berserk because he broke his vow to Shiva to not kill men and insta-wipes the raid.

    It's called most moderate people, which make up the vast majority of the population despite what the loudest 1% on the internet would have you believe. I think most far left people are just as fucking stupid as the far right.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Depends on your perspective - the extreme Qs were seeking overall destructive changes to society due to the 4chan troll fueled shit being pumped out. The witch hunt "cancel culture" extreme SJWs were also seeking overall destructive changes to society. Just like in religion, you have some...

    Rin's static discovered something interesting - at a certain point in the 2nd half, Thordan doesnt enrage if you DPS him low enough. He basically looks defeated and asks for mercy if you get him as low as 1%. If you kill him, the dragons eventually wipe you. Theory is you have to spare...

    Counter point: It is also why conspiracy theories like Q'anon take root. The part of the brain that involves religion also is ripe for conspiracy theories. Whether or not you are religious, humans are literally hardwired for it.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Hate to break it to you, but even TOS did that and is core to pretty much every Sci-Fi show ever: You take a political or societal issue, paint it green and give it strange looking clothes and call it an unfamiliar name, then present it to the audience in a way where a core message is given to...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That is just sales 101 and isn't anything new. You could travel back in time thousands of years and find the same thing. A young, attractive, and charismatic person selling something is usually going to find more success because of heavily ingrained human biases and psychology.

    No surprise. They've been shit in ratings and all the Arrowverse shows have been mostly dropping off. edit: Looks like Legends got the axe as well https://deadline.com/2022/04/dcs-legends-of-tomorrows-canceled-at-the-cw-seven-seasons-1235013375/

    Overwatch 2

    It still feels very OW1. Outside some major hero tweaks, like Orissa and Bastion, feels mostly the same. Some of the gravity feels odd, at least with Moira. The 1-2-2 mix makes it feel like whoever downs the tank first usually steamrolls the leftovers

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    Lich Strange would be kind of cool, but they showed zombie Wanda in prior trailers. So I suspect same universe for both, but Strange was able to use some spell to prevent going full evil zombie

    That is way down the line, though. Spartan II are still around She is more annoying than Wesley Crusher at this point. They would need a major character development to get people to actually like her now

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Pretty much this. It isn’t a conspiracy. You grab kids fresh out of college for low level positions in the corporate world. They tend to have scant work history, so unless you have a candidate field with people with solid work resumes and a specific skill set you want to choose from, usually...

    They fled to Poland for the same reason millions of Ukrainians fled to Poland: it shares a large border, is friendly, and is relatively far away from Russia. They also fled super early on, before the ultra queues happened and before Ukraine started to prevent men from leaving. The US state...

    multiple reasons, but a big reason is culturally, Americans smile a lot and it frequently is a smile showing your teeth. So your teeth are seen a lot more and if you have fucked up teeth, people are going to make assumptions about you (anywhere from education to wealth to health/genes).

    Ya I honestly hope they drop that plot line and character in season 2. Even if it is realistic: dumb teenager thinks they are Superman and can’t understand why all the adults think they’re dumb lol

    Because players turn out for freebies. Like at the OW2 beta giveaway. Hundreds of thousands of viewers. Will all of them buy OW2? Of course not. But it increases awareness for the product with very little advertising expenditures - streamers will do it for the viewers (money) and require...

    Yes, instant ads are such shit. I want to see if the stream is even interesting and immediately getting an ad is more often than not going to result in me going elsewhere

    Not disagreeing with drama/etc probably being a factor. The pet thing seems reasonable. If I have a chance to save my dog, I’m saving my dog. I’m not just going to abandon him unless I’ve exhausted literally every feasible option and it’s a life/death type of thing, and even then it would be...

    Youve got old info. She needed to get specific passports/documents to move pets across borders or to the US (because of the rabies issue you mentioned). She had left Bucha to go to Lyiv because the documents had not cleared and the state dept issued warnings to US citizens. Then when Russia...

    Which part? She has lived in Bucha for years. She posted about it for years. What FSB funded bullshit portal are y’all getting your news from? “guys, even though Putin has made it no secret he thinks the USSR failing was the worst thing ever and hates the west, there’s no way he would lie...
