30min is considered short ? Damn, I have 15min to commute and when looking for a new place I did put a limit at 20min from my work place. Most of my colleagues have shorter commute time than me.

No suprise more than 2h wasted per day would make someone depressed.

Just buy blocks of basic hard soap. Better for your skin and your plumbing. I don't know if it's cheaper compared to your 10L bottle, but it's definitely cheaper compared to normal liquid soap bottles.

I watched it purely for nostalgia reason because of the games, I decided to not read reviews about it before. There was few interesting scenes (combat scenes), but overall not worth it IMO. I kept watching hoping that it will get better and I kept being disappointed. Maybe I'll check the season 2 though according to reviews this time.

They took a big dump on all the existing lore, and on the already well defined character of Master Chief.

Forward Unto Dawn was so much better as a Halo adaptation.

People in the comment seems to not understand that it doesn't mean average on the "scale of beauty/attractiveness". But averaged features. Like if you merge all nose shapes of a million person you get this nose, ect.

It was tested already several years ago that people tend to like faces made by merging a lot of faces together and "averaging" them. Most of the time rating them more attractive than the individual faces used.

I don't find the source anymore... I'll check better later.

But how do you know if you love a film before buying it'd dvd if you watch only on dvd ? And if you watched it already somewhere else, what's the point of buying the dvd ?

I can maybe fill one small shelf with DVD of movies that I enjoying re watching (maybe 20, top 30). Otherwise for nearly all the movie I watch them once and that's done. So streaming or piracy are the best for my use case.

I wasn't even the first, someone else posted it also while I was typing my answer.

I didn't even re play it that much. I think in the end I probably have more playtime on Oblivion. But much better/stronger memories from Morrowind. It was maybe because I had less video game experience to compare it with, but this one clearly left a big mark on me. I still have incredible goosebumps when "the road most travelled" or "nerevar rising" sounds start playing from my playlists.

The gameplay maybe clunky compared to today, especially to combine weapon and magic. But everything else was so amazing for the time, and some part are still much better than recent games.

I even had a talk with someone at an "ai in game dev" conference who took as an exemple the way the diary/quest log of Morrowind was working.

Without a doubt Morrowind for me.

Halo and Diablo also, in different genre.

Je sais pas si c'est une hérésie car il suffit juste de changer le nom, mais je préfère les pattes "carbo" crème/lardon (champignons) que la vrai recette italienne. Bon il faut juste pas appeller ça "carbonara".

Sinon en vrai hérésie dont j'ai été temoin: j'ai une amie qui adore manger ses frites en les trempant dans du sorbet au citron.

I would say that willingness to exploit other, be selfish and have low ethic also play a big role.

And this minister got in a troubles because of this and got attacked by the minister of Economy because "people need to buy stuff for the economy to work bruh".

For once that someone in the government was doing something new in the good direction ...

Yeah I had to make an android app for that because one person in the group was taking ages to proceed each rolls ...

I would say that the game as a whole is fine but it's carried by the franchise. The system is not for me, but no doubt a lot of people like it. I cannot even explain why I don't like it specifically, it just didn't work for me.
