    FFO this you may also want to watch: Workaholics, Archer, Trailer Park Boys, and at a serious stretch, Seinfeld.

    Today I learned that I can't remove spoiler tags from a quote, on the mobile site.

     

    Also, as an addendum to this list, I highly recommend Broad City. Pretty much the same thing as Workaholics, but set in New York and with two Jewish girls.

  2. I'm intrigued by WWI because, long before Syndicate, there was mention of an Assassin who operated as a combat medic in order to move freely through the battlefield. WWI spans a lot of different environments, and I'd definitely be interested in that. The Assassin fighting style is perfect for trench warfare. The trenches were so claustrophobic that every fight would be like top-tier hallway fight scene choreography.

  3. Ancient Egypt is what I've heard most. Personally, I think that would be a mistake. Ancient Egypt was almost entirely lacking the high rooftops and narrow alleyways that Assassin's Creed has become known for. The people who have been clamoring for Egypt for years don't realize how boring it actually was. It's like they imagined climbing a pyramid and gave it no thought beyond that.

     

    Moving the time period forward little by little is the best option.


  4. For me, at least, it seems like gaming is in another rut. Fallout, TES, and GTA are dead, for at least a few years. A lazy Skyrim remaster instead of the long-overdue TES VI put Bethesda off my radar for the foreseeable future. No word on Assassin's Creed yet, either. Watch Dogs 2 was perfect, but you only get one save file, so that ruins it. Guess I'm just waiting on RDR2, for now.


  5. Movie critics are pseudo-intellectual pricks with terrible taste. Their job is to praise what they're paid to praise and badmouth everything else. Same goes for game reviewers and food critics. Success depends on how much money you throw around once the product is finished.

     

    This movie was gold. Bonus points for not disputing the established storyline from the game. I wouldn't be surprised to see this new Animus - which is the only real difference - in a future game, if we ever get any real-world gameplay segments again.


  6. It's in memory of the Canadian Great Depression. There wasn't an economic hardship, they just had a shortage of sleds, the winter of 1896. They used cardboard boxes instead, and now they do the same, every December 26th. As is tradition.

     

    Never forget Canada's third greatest tragedy.*

     

    *Their second greatest tragedy was a maple syrup shortage in 1964, when all the maple trees went on strike. The strike finally ended in February of 1965, when the prime minister agreed to put a maple leaf on the previously nonexistent Canadian flag.** Their greatest tragedy, of course, was in May of 2011, when the Princess of Canada was kidnapped by tooth decay. Thankfully, three brave champions rescued her, defeating tooth decay forever.

     

    **Part of this is true. Canada didn't have a flag until 1965.

  7. Bear is one of those meats that doesn't even need spices (though any meat benefits from it, obviously). It's phenomenal as-is.

     

    I've tried kangaroo and rattlesnake, recently. Kangaroo is magnificent. The rattlesnake was poorly prepared, but that left it with a texture similar to jerky, so I can't really complain.

  8. Ballistic weave everything? Fucking finally. I've stolen every unique outfit in the game from its wearer. Now I can actually use some of them.

     

    Dunno if it made it to consoles, but there's a mod out there that lets you layer armor over any outfit, which I'd want more for looks than protection. So many shitty outfits that just needed a couple of armor pieces to be great outfits.

  9. Then you're in the clear.

     

    Any interest in continuing the family business (whatever that may have been)? We haven't gotten an update on your situation in quite a while.

     

    World of opportunity opens up, once you realize that rock bottom is a gift, not a curse.
