That sounds like a dick move on the part of the developers, I’d wonder if I really want to keep playing the game after that.

It’s a suspiciously low price, and the interaction is just a little off. It’s clearly fishy.

It also happens so early that the mugging doesn’t take away much even if you fall for it.

Lollipop Chainsaw has another. “Accidentally” maneuvering the camera to upskirt the main character.

Nier Automata has an achievement like this too. I never unlocked it the normal way, but something I really liked about that game is after you beat it there is an NPC that will “sell” you any achievements you haven’t unlocked yet.

I never saw that character in the game, but there are dozens of other reasons to hate Metro 2033.

I quite liked all the people complaining about ‘unrealistic’ Russian accents, and every single character in the game is voiced by a native speaker. Many lols. Bit like people complaining about Yvonne Strahovski’s ‘phoney’ Australian accent playing Miranda in Mass Effect.

VAs are asked to exaggerate their accents on a regular basis. Don’t know if it’s the case in the example you mention but native speakers are not necessarily a guarantee of a realistic accents

Maybe you’re mixing up the Russian voice actors with the English voice actors. Some of the English voice actors originated from the USSR but most of them were American and they did some weird Russian accent thing. I guess that would be the criticism, but if someone complains about unrealistic Russian accents and you can replace them with actual Russian voice lines just use the Russian voice lines, they’re pretty good.

With one exception of course. In Metro Exodus the character Sam is American and the Russian VA is supposed to do an American accent speaking Russian. That is the most jarring shit ever because it sounds exactly like it is, a Russian trying to do an American trying to speak Russian. They should’ve just gotten an American VA to read Russian and it would’ve sounded better.

I don’t care about the corporation, if microsoft was making the M2 microsoft book I would buy that, problem is, nothing in my experience is close enough to the macbooks, I wish it was, I would have loved to save some money.

I will buy framework if they start selling in my country by the time I need a new notebook.

If you wanted this, you don’t need a dam apple laptop, but at the same time, the closest competitor is the new snapdragon laptops that are closer to having up to a week of battery life. Also, they are capable of running more than you can on an apple machine, albeit it is early progress in proper x86 emulation, and more productivity programs are starting to support it.

So, no, you are NOT forced to make a decision to get a MacBook and the price gouging you experience.

Even then, picking a device for your use case is extremely important. I know many people who can survive with lower powered devices as they only use it for web browsing or documents like Excel or Word. Which an apple device would work well for but seriously is complete overkill and overpriced for.

In the beginning when you explore one of the starting areas you can encounter a prostitute who offers herself for cheap. If you agree, she tells you to follow her into some backroom. However, there is a giant dude waiting inside who knocks you unconscious and takes all your money (it’s scripted, you can’t escape this fate once you enter the backroom).
