@sushiravager@blacklodgegames Fallout 76 was basically outsourced to a separate division and made re-using fallout 4 assets (and was a disaster at release) and starfield was dog shit. 11 years since they released a single player game for a flagship IP and that got shown up by the Witcher 3 in 2015.
Mbappe is great but I feel he’s never been profiled entirely correctly. The best football he’s played was with Giroud for France. Similar to Ronaldo’s best football being playing with Benzema. Needs a focal point to bounce off of
Madrid the season before they signed Mbappé looked unstoppable they were genuinely a top striker and a Kroos/Modric replacement away from having an amazing XI.
Mbappé’s signing single handedly slowed down the trajectory of Vinicus, Bellingham & Rodrygo.
Now they’re stuck.
@TorbjornNaslund@Trickyred1 @AkanjiSZN_ Maybe but not like he was getting bad results. And Dyche normally has good relationships with his players. Even if it was the case 4 managers in a single year is madness
@Trickyred1 @AkanjiSZN_ Tbf it’s hard to be connected with any coaches tactics when you’re sacked 3 in a single season. He would have kept you up and could have re-assessed at the end of the season if it was really that bad. Risking relegation for no real reason
@Hardporecorn69@NotExulai@GreenTextRepost There are I just don’t trust the writers to actually do anything interesting with it. Major players are brotherhood/enclave with all other factions gone, and the whole story is kicked off with a vault dweller leaving to search for their dad. Like some originality would be nice
@HereticVV@politicswarblog@GreenTextRepost Tbh I don’t think it’s that, it’s just you can’t really adapt the east coast games to tv because the world building is awful, whereas the west coast actually has interesting world building. They’re just really shit writers
@Hardporecorn69@NotExulai@GreenTextRepost But why the enclave lol they’ve been wiped out like twice. The only reason they’re being introduced back is the same reason they show the brotherhood prominently, power armour looks cool.
@Hardporecorn69@NotExulai@GreenTextRepost It hasn’t evolved though, it’s devolved. If the fallout universe being a bunch of destroyed ruins was interesting they would have just based the show in the east coast
@Grumbles266751@MatiSavu@cactigaymer The factions of the Mojave weren’t exactly built for the long term but rather than being replaced with new factions or seeing how those factions have evolved it’s just rubble. It’s thematically boring
United fans like to “stick by the manager” so the worse the manager does the more vindicated they feel as fans for supporting him. They view the sport like a movie, where the protagonist has to “suffer” in the opening act only to overcome adversity in the final act
I have genuinely never seen anything like the Amorim phenomenon. It's honestly baffling how some fans adore him so intensely despite the fact he wasn't even winning games. People are ready to go to war and get on literal kids and academy players for a manager with a 31% win rate. You truly wouldn't see that anywhere else
Do you know anything about league optimization?
I might have to make a thread on this, it’s 2025 and people do not know such a basic principle of transfers.
That being said, Seskos game and build suits the EPL more than Werner’s
It’s just not about seeing a player score X amount of goals or completing X amount of dribbles and thinking it would translate to any league. Almost any player could flop if they’re poorly optimized to the league
Only people that are exempt to this are elite/world-class players
Fun fact, I was the first to pack him. But because he was lower rated than his gold card and I was a MORON I sold him for 1.2m coins and then I saw him listed back on the market almost immediately for 10m and I almost ended it all then and there
🚨FIFA Facts!🚨
Did you know EA released a 86 Messi back in FIFA 12?
The FIFA 12 86-rated Messi card was released to celebrate his insane 91 goals in the 2012 calendar year 🐐
EA gave him a special downgraded-rating card but with boosted in-game stats, making him feel unreal despite the “86” overall.
One of FIFA’s most iconic special cards ever 🔥
