  1. Horizon Zero Dawn Played on Easy, Normal had some fights that were a bit too much for me, and to quote Michael from Achievement Hunter "I don't want a challenge, I just want to play the game and have fun". Fighting against humans was kind of annoying, but everything else was awesome. Firing a bow felt cool, and was pretty satisfying as someone who shoots in real life. \m/ \m/ The world looks great, machines are fucking awesome, the Thunderjaw is my favourite, weapons are cool, and the story was interesting. I went through the Frozen Wilds DLC before finishing the main story, while fun, it had some parts that were a bit frustrating, particularly with how strong enemies are in that area. The weapons you get are totally worth it though, specially Storywise:
  2. First cases confirmed in Mexico, one in CDMX the other in Sinaloa. I think I'll swing by some stores tomorrow, just buy some stuff to try and stay home as much as possible. The bright side is that I should now be able to finish Horizon, DOOM 2/3 and maybe a rerun of DOOM(2016) before Eternal comes out.
  3. Ultraman! \m/ \m/ I like that the Spanish version uses the old Latin American names.
  4. *Cattle Decapitation intensifies* IOC is considering cancelling the Olympic Games if this thing isn't under control. https://apnews.com/58043910be7bdc6818344bdee2096bc2 Because my family lost a relative to influenza, many are kinda paranoid about this whole thing, I'm hoping it won't be long until it's under control and treatments/vaccines are available, but at the same time, looking at the state of hospitals here, if it hits, it's going to hit hard.
  5. Given what's been shown so far, I wonder if this is still in the game:
  6. They kept it in the US for a year, according to INAI (institute for information access), the Peña Nieto administration budgeted 17 million pesos per year for it's use, the current administration paid 16 million pesos to keep it in storage, plus other maintenance costs which caused it to ascend a bit beyond the 17 million it took to use. Apparently, they brought it back not too long ago, so not it's in SEDENA hangars, costing 80K pesos per week to keep it there (around 4 million per year), plus 100,000 every time they clean it, plus other maintenance costs, the total of which is unknown, but it is supposed to be less than before, so yeah, sorry about that, mistake on my part, didn't know they had brought it back.
  7. https://open.spotify.com/album/2qzn2h9qi6HRQiN1Eogvt9 \m/ \m/ Yeah, there are a couple of riffs that came directly from the Incorruptible sessions, but overall it's a pretty solid album. Hopefully we won't have to wait 15 years for the next one.
  8. FUCAM Which provided care and attention to women with breast cancer has announced they won't be able to provide their services for free after they failed to reach an agreement with the INSABI (the new "healthcare" stuff). In January they stopped receiving funds and had been operating with what they had until now, when it is no longer feasible to provide the attention, medical treatments, medicines, etc. for free. This is added to the many people who have been unable to receive treatment for different kinds of cancer after the government failed to secure the needed medicines. Then there's the case of Fatima, a 7 year old girl that was kidnapped and murdered, her body found in a plastic bag. Authorities have not been helpful, releasing a sketch of the suspect, only to say it wasn't her, then they announced they had found the people responsible, except they did not know who they were, and now, they claim that have arrested the people behind it. One more to the list of murders that target women and young girls, an issue that has sparked protests in the face of a government that not only doesn't care, but actively demonises the victims. When talking about the murder the president said "I'm not going to talk about it, because it'll sour the mood and distract people from the raffle*." When talking about the protests, where people have painted walls, statues and other stuff, his words "Don't go around painting things OK?! We know how to turn things around, so ya'll better do things peacefully, got it?". Meanwhile, rape, housebreaking, and homicides (particularly those targeting women) will no longer be considered serious crimes. On the other hand, if you deposit more than $200 into your bank account and cannot justify them in a way that satisfies SAT, you could be tried for federal crimes, on par with narco bosses, sicarios and others (not really, they get preferential treatment and are more likely to walk away free). *In case you didn't know, the president is trying to give away the presidential air-plane using the national lotto. During his campaign he claimed that "Not even Obama has a plane like this one!", and that he would get rid of it, using the money to give it to the poor. He hasn't been able to sell it, he can't auction it and it turns out it's costing more to keep that thing grounded than it would cost for him to actually use the damn thing. Also, the amount they think they'll make is nothing compared to the "savings" they claimed they would get, specially with how much they're wasting on useless refineries, trains that will destroy the jungle, and airports that will not be usable by some major airlines. It's been harder and harder to predict where we'll be in a few years, though it's certainly a fun thought experiment.
  9. I could see the first season being about Yharnam, people living their "normal" lives, then slowly werewolves and demon crows start to show up, things start going to hell but it's still just that kind of stuff. By the end of the first season we see the silhouette of an Amygdala as the moon turns red. Or something along those lines.
  10. Thing is, phones don't really go down in price here, older models just sort of vanish from the stores. This also means that used phones tend to be fairly overpriced, and those that are cheaper come with some issues that may or may not be a deal breaker depending on your needs/wants/whatever. For me personally, I don't upgrade my phone that frequently, and usually only when it breaks beyond repair/gets stolen/lost, so the amount of time it'd take to find a decent used one, or track down an older model, compared to what I would save is just not worth it. Granted, a lot of it is due to where I live, I assume you'll have better luck looking around CDMX, Puebla, Guadalajara or Monterrey, but fuck if I'm going through Mordor just to get a slightly cheaper phone. Online is not much better, you can find some decent phones, but these are usually imports, and factoring shipping and import taxes makes it not worth it. So yeah, call me dumb, but I do go for the newest flagship when it's time to upgrade. For now though, my S8 is doing just fine. My father is just looking for something that fits in his pockets, and that isn't slow as hell, he's currently using an old Alcatel Idol Mini. For those than can make use of it though, Samsung did announce a pride drop for their older models.
  11. My father was interested in the Galaxy Flip because he hates big phones, I don't think he'll like that price though. On that note, what are some recent phones that are on the smaller side but with decent specs?
  12. DOOM (1993) I cleared all the way up to Inferno without much trouble, then I started Thy Flesh Consumed and... The level Perfect Hatred is just pure hate, I couldn't handle the trillion enemies in that place. Ended up enabling God Mode and getting through like that.
  13. I was thinking about picking this one up for Switch, now I think I'll just wait for the PC version. \m/ \m/
  14. The first 10 minutes: HELL YEAH! \m/ \m/
  15. Usually I shade with my right hand, this time I used my left hand. The darker shade was done by simply duplicating the layer, I think it looks better, though it also highlights some mistakes and some stuff that could be done better. Picked the wrong template, hence the large amount of empty space.
  16. Horizon Zero Dawn Switched to a more stealthy approach after getting mauled by machines a couple of times, working much better so far. Also, a question about an item I picked, that started a new quest:
  17. Yeah, I'm in no rush right now. My HAFX has lasted for almost 10 years, without any issues (other than a dead fan, but that's not that bad IMO), but I'm now looking to update my whole system, case included.
