it took about twelve hours for the discourse to shift from retroachievements admins are bad -> all achievements are bad -> ableist opinions on people who enjoy achievement hunting

Crazy story I saw in the sept 1918 Exhibitors Herald

200 Escape Death From Cyclone by Being in Theatre - Many Killed Near Tyler, Minn., House, But Patrons Are Unscathed. -- TYLER, MINN.— Attendance at the Scenic Theatre saved the lives of 200 persons on the occasion of the cyclone which swept this section recently, killing many persons. Although there were casualties in the vicinity of the theatre, none inside was hurt.

Mrs. P. J. Theisen, wife of the ticket taker, said the storm came without warning to the patrons.

"No one in the theatre knew what was coming," Mrs. Theisen said, "except my hsuband, who was taking the tickets, and the manager, who watched a strange cloud formation shortly before a sudden blackness overspread the sky and shut the cloud out. A sudden rush of hailstones on the roof of the theatre shut out the noise of the piano, but none paid much attention.

Crash Is Terrorizing
"Suddenly a crash came. It was more like a magnified scream of terror than a clap of thunder. It was indescribably terrorizing.
"All in the theatre jumped to their feet. The lights went out. Women shrieked and all about us we heard the crashing, exploding sound of falling timbers and breaking glass.
"Above the noise, I heard my husband shouting from the entrance of the theatre for all to remain where they were. Some wanted to rush out, but fear seemed to make everyone stand still.

Time Seems an Age
"The whole thing was over soon—but the time in the darkness, with the noise and the shrieking voices was an age.
"From the theatre the first rescue parties started out to search for the dead. Some went fearfully, hardly daring to look.
"Then the moon came out and the sky was suddenly clear. All night the rescue parties sought for the dead and wounded."

Some desk lamps I made in blender, for box modeling, paths and lighting practice. (the cone of light from the bigger lamp is an actual cone)

my most unpopular opinion is that it's a sign of defective moral character if you point blank refuse to answer phone calls from unknown numbers. it's not that hard to hang up on spam/scammers, and you are probably missing important calls!

There's really no right answer for how to approach it, because this is what happens when you don't have a cohesive story and instead keep making changes based on arbitrary decisions and audience feedback

BUT ALSO, the reason they had the modern day segments in the first place was because they were still building Juno up to the big bad. Which they eventually gave up on and finished in one of the comic books. And I doubt they want to make any reference to a plotline they abandoned 10 years ago.

LET ME BE BORING FOR A MINUTE

Okay the modern day sections suck, they're really slow. BUT. In black flag, the (spoiler alert for a years old game) reveal that Bart is a Sage means absolutely nothing without the modern day context. It changes from being a reincarnation story to just being some guy

Assassin's Creed fans are reacting with disappointment after a new report on Ubisoft's long-expected Black Flag remake has stated that the game will no longer contain any modern day gameplay.
