Finding a good old-style offline German course
I want to find a good German course. I know there's Duolingo, Babbel, Rosetta Stone, etc., but I find they don't work for me.
I want a course like the ones from 15-20 years ago that would give you some text books and some CDs for listening exercises.
I started learning German with one of those that my dad had, but unfortunately the audio lessons are incomplete.
I'd like to know where I can download/purchase a course in that format. I also prefer that format because my internet access is intermittent so I want to be able to study offline.
Thank you!
I find that this only happens to me in relation to AAA titles. I just don't have time to put 60 hrs into a game.
But since I started playing indies I feel like rejuvenated
it's all a conspiration mate
they really think the sun is this small star (not big or bright enough to light the entire Earth), and that spins over Earth. Amazing.
sharing a meme about it is "bitching" about it?
Thanks for the insight!
so if I don't like the game I should just avoid commenting because it isn't positive? I prefer to see everyone's take thanks
you don't have to play a game to comment on it, especially when there's so much material about it online because it is such a relevant title.
I would never comment on an indie game because of a tweet I read. But this is not that and there's a lot of info about it.
specifically to the loading screens point, I guess it's about expectations. Since this is such a huge game advertised as exploration-based people might find too many loading screens immersion-breaking.
I know I'm spoiled about this since Red Dead 2
loading-screen-lover gamer, this is definitely a first.
Give me RDR2 seamless experience every day of the week
if I may ask, I see you say that the loading screens are fast for you so the way to travel is not bad in your opinion. Would you say you are OK with the exploration being menu based? (which seems to be the biggest complain so far)
I'll start by saying I haven't played this, I just watched reviews online. But I see everybody agreeing in that the exploration is not actual exploration but a lot of clicking menus. And when someone complains about it, there's always a bunch of people defending it because "it's a bethesda game" or "the game is what it is and not what you expected it to be". I don't get this.
The game was overhyped, and the specific part about space exploration is (so far) a lie. Period.
You are the World Athletics Championship champion because you won by competing against the best in the world, the same is true in the NBA.
I'd like to believe this, but come on

Is NFS Payback worth it for offline only gameplay
I have zero access to the internet on my PS4, and I have the chance to get a Payback disc.
Is the offline at least decent? I expect to have a good amount of different races, good arcade driving and good AI
EDIT: also replayability

Are the Rockets still rebuilding or what?
This Rockets rebuild must be the strangest I’ve ever seen.
They spend a couple years gathering young talent, then suddenly they are in nearly every rumor for a star player or veteran role player, and give high salaries (too high IMO) to FVV and Dillon Brooks.
What am I missing?

I don't get people that are here in the fediverse and want to bring over the content that is on FB, IG, TikTok, etc.
This has come to mind because all the chatter about Meta federating.
I see a lot of people saying they'd love to have that type of content here when Meta federates, and that those will be the best instances because they will have the most content, but they will still be accessible without compromising their privacy.
I truly don't get this.
I'm not here for mass-produced content, if I wanted that, I'd be in other platforms. The beauty of these communities is they are not filled with posts that are all the same, algorithms and bots. It's just a community of real people having conversations.
If you want mass-produced trendy content, please, consume it elsewhere, and when you are inevitably fed up, then come here and enjoy the slow-paced, real community.
PD: I hope this doesn't come across as wall-keeping (or however it's said lol), It's my honest opinion.
