    Benoot? He's never been a good sprinter. And don't forget Pidock once beat Van Aert in a sprint in the Brabantse Pijl, and some would say in the Amstel Gold Race as well. In any case, this was an exciting finish. More of that in LBL please...
  • Finally got round to playing A Plague Tale: Requiem and finished it yesterday night. I can't help but feel pretty disappointed by it all. Spoilers I guess.

    That chip from behind the green in the water was brutal stuff. Not the first time he's made a quadruple bogey on this same hole.

    The result might have been the same, but it would've been a lot more interesting to watch. These races just offered nothing.

    This is turning out to be the most pointless classics Spring ever. Pogacar with an 80km solo in the Strade, VDP without any sort of competition in the cobbled monuments. Undoubtedly phenomenal riders and performances, but pointless to watch. Not...

    It's disappointing but I do think 30 fps is probably fine for a game like Hellblade, as long as it's a perfect lock. The sad reality is that over the last year we've seen that the current consoles will often either give us sub 60 fps...

    I so want her to get a big victory, but she just can't sprint to save her life. Such a shame. Longo Borghini closing the gap on Van Anrooij was a big wtf moment. Ok, the winner is always right I guess, but still not nice to see.

    That's cycling, I guess. Details can make the difference between having a great palmares in the biggest races, and being left with almost nothing. I don't even care about that anymore, I just want van Aert to be able to make the best out of...

    Multiple broken ribs as well for van Aert, just awful. A crash like this has the potential to derail an entire career, just look at Alaphilippe. I hope this isn't a similar story.

    It's going to be a procession, so yeah, I'm not even going to tune in. I'm close to being done with this sport altogether, though I know I'll change my mind about it when I've calmed down a little.
  • Ainu replied to the thread Cycling 2024.
    I had the stream on at work and that was just terrible to watch. Van Aert is totally fecked, you could hear him crying. I fecking despise this sport at times. Is there a more unlucky rider than van Aert? That horrible injury in 2019, Covid the...
  • I'm finally playing Chrono Trigger for the first time ever. For some reason I just never got around to it. I still rate FFVI as the greatest JRPG of all time and I know many people put Chrono Trigger next to or even ahead of it, so I'm curious to...
  • Absolutely, same as any other artificial inconvenience or grind designed to sell microtransactions. I'm just not sure that's what happened here, because it was the same in the first game but without the microtransactions.
  • Haven't played the second game yet, but you also needed port crystals, which were limited and relatively scarce, for fast travel in the first game, and it took a long time to get the option in the first place. So it sounds exactly the same, only...
  • Ainu replied to the thread Gaming PlayStation 5.
    I'm definitely going to play it at some point, was a huge fan of Dragon's Dogma, despite playing it 10 years late. I hope it won't take me 10 years this time, but with the state of my backlog... It looks great. More of the same, but I doubt...
