1 year agoI finally finished Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, after nearly 300 hours. Holy fuck, there is so much video game in that god-damn video game. It just keeps going for so much longer than it needs to. Then on top of that they went and added several new features like raiding, and a roguelike game mode which I enjoyed.
It’s a mediocre game, but it’s a fun time if you’re like me and just enjoy exploring big maps, collecting items, upgrading gear, etc. I enjoyed the DLC, but I’m not planning on picking up Dawn of Ragnarök because the mythical storyline just doesn’t interest me.
100% a public transit enjoyer. I get annoyed with people in my city who complain endlessly about how shitty our bus service is. I’ve been getting the bus daily since childhood, and it used to be so much worse. 15 minute minimum wait, often it just wouldn’t show up, and expensive fares. Now it’s uncommon for me to wait for more than 5 minutes, the fares have reduced, and it’s reliable. The only issue is that the bus gets stuck in traffic because there are twice as many cars on the roads now compared to 25 years ago. So great job drivers, you’ve created a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Most of it comes from people who have next to no experience of using public transit, and will just latch onto any excuse not to use it, when in reality they’re snobs who don’t like to admit that they think getting the bus is below them. It’s not. I used to get the bus into college with one of my lecturers (RIP) who owned a fucking law firm, and it keeps people humble in my experience. I honestly think society would be healthier if people used public transit more.
