Holy shit this is good
Huh, what’s wrong with the redesign? Haven’t heard of anything
Never got that. A remake and its original counterpart can co-exist - one doesn’t make the other worse or the other way around. What’s the issue?
Yea, US
It’s actually a separate company - a joint venture I think - not related to DRK. It’s octopharma + TMD (Gesellschaft für transfusionsmedizinische Dienste mbH), apparently, so probably a private company. The other place I can donate at in my city is the local Uniklinikum (it’s like a hospital that’s closely linked our university where med students can work). Both provide a monetary compensation for the donation.
Yea, the US is kinda fucked, ngl
That’s the worst thing. At this point, they shouldn’t even be allowed to even ask that
Holy shit, 120$ per week? Now I definitely feel like I’m being ripped off 🐧 I thought we were having it good with 25€ per donation plus the odd additional promotions.
It used to be like that for me too - extra money to spend on leisure time. Mostly video games, in my case. Nowadays, I can’t go that regularly, sadly, because my new apprenticeship is full-time and doesn’t leave too much time to go donate plasma. But 120 sounds amazing
I’ve been there myself too. I didn’t necessarily have to donate plasma twice a week for a couple months since I could have asked my parents for money, but I’m very reluctant when it comes to asking for money and want to do things independently, on my own as far as possible. So yea, while between jobs, I was reliant on this steady source of income to be able to afford rent. It sucks but that’s reality. And yea, I quite agree that this is an underlying systematic failure of the government and not necessarily a fault of the blood bank
Shortcuts in the way that WoW handles it, ie. instant leveling, or literal shortcuts like waypoints on map? Afaik, both exist, right? At least you can skip the campaign.
And would including power in some way not lead to P2W?
I guess it depends how aggressive your monetisation is. I feel like Blizzard was super greedy already, looking at Overwatch’s 20€ skins, but studios like Riot sure don’t make it more realistic for mtx to become cheaper in the future. People seem to be fine paying 20€ for a single equipment transmog for some reason.
raise your dongers
My brother plays a lot of D4 himself and even though he does spend money on the game for the battle passes (I think), he never bought skins because he feels the same way you do: your characters look less like they’re your own because the armour you equip is not visible. Then again, I’m wondering what else they could sell that isn’t cosmetics. Change the way spells look maybe?
Load times that don’t take ages with the internal SSD of the PS5 is a huge boon too
Are all of these “laws” in place because incendiary weapons are especially cruel compared to a simple shot to the dome?
It’s cheap(er), nutritious, and is not as easily perishable compared to animal products. Why not
Most European countries should outright ban that shit. Only harm comes from this. Blizzard can be rightfully criticised for many their practices over the past decades but at least they got rid of loot boxes in OW.
