I’m seeing milla jovovich.
What does her husband think about that?
Haven’t asked.
Too busy making seven new Resident Evil movies to notice
Isn’t she in those too?
Yeah
What the fuck
What game is this
For, uh, research
Middle earth dhadow of war if I am not mistaken
for the next 11h it’s still on -95% sale on steam too!
As far as actual lotr story, not good. As far as gameplay though, for 95% off there’s MUCH worse games you could play. I easily put over 100 hours into this and it’s dlc
Shadow of mordor’s story is also just passable, but the nemesis system of both game is really something else. It’s a shame the system is trademarked.
And they don’t seem to want to implement that system in anything else
It’s the kind of thing that fit so well within this franchise because any uruk can be somebody and nobody at the same time, it won’t work well with most of WB other franchise. The only other game that could utilise this system well is Mad Max, so maybe there might be a chance?
Well now I’m retroactively annoyed they didn’t use it in the Mad Max game a few years ago. It was still really fun but that would’ve been a great addition.
It got patented, nobody can use it anymore.
I believe you mean patented.
Patented. And the patent should run out fairly soon iirc.
2036 if they don’t extend it. It was granted in 2021.
Oh wow, patent was only granted 7 years after the game was released so the game will be 22 years old when the patent expires if not extended. Patent law is bonkers.
I don’t think it would be enforceable, either. At least, not in the way people are thinking. Take a gander at that article, sort of goes over the details of it and sheds some light on the industry on a larger scale.
Even on hard nemesis is something you can really avoid by picking who to fight with, and even by then it is not that difficult in Shadow of Mordor. They can surely sell the idea but the implementation in my opinion.
Look at mister “I never died to a random 7 uruk gangbang”
Ok, sold, now my partner has a new gift of their favorite movies
Shadow of War is really good.
Oh holy shit really?
I bet she’s good at pegging.
I can verify.
Can you send her my number?
Totally not searching the web for Stoya
She was pretty famous like a decade ago. IDK if she still does stuff anymore.
She mostly successfully pivoted to legit work.
She had a few non-adult movies and she’s a columnist with Slate now.
Porn is legit work. I invite you to try and earn a living doing it. Even if you actually succeed at pulling in with money, you’re gonna realize it’s basically like any other entertainment business.
Was she the one nearly killed by that UFC fighter ex-boyfriend?
No, that was Christy Mack. Stoya was the one who got into an on-and-off-camera relationship with James Deen and then alleged that he was a pretty skeezy dude. I think she may also have popularized the whole “porn star is a regular on Reddit” thing but I may be mistaken.
And there’s a part of the web I’m not glad I missed…
Sexy Shelob was definitely a misstep…
These two games are both really good though. Infuriating that the nemesis system got patented.
I think the games were both really bad, both in lore, environment, and boring ass combat. And also Ubisoft has something almost exactly like the “nemesis system” that they used in AC Odyssey, so it’s not that special. Not special enough to make the Shadow of games playable anyway.
I tried playing AC Odyssey but it just felt weirdly cluttered like I was being bombarded with a bunch of useless information the whole time. Refunded within two hours.
Personally I agree but a lot of people seemed to enjoy them.
I did a big catch-up on games I’d missed a few years ago when I got a PS4. Nabbed Shadow on sale and was super excited to finally try this amazing game that everyone raved about.
Pretty much immediately realized that it was another mf’ing Batman Arkham combat clone, haven’t touched it since. A plague on modern gaming.
