![]() The biggest question after the show(s) was: why is it 30fps on Xbox Series X and Series S and not 60fps? In this IGN Performance preview, we dive into the details shared by the team, the revealed PC minimum and recommended specifications, and how the Creation Engine 2 works, comparing the previous games to gauge some of the potential reasons why the team might have chosen 30fps. With Starfield being the center of the Xbox 2023 Showcase last week, Bethesda gave us a deep dive into one of the biggest games this generation. You can end it at several points, but if you follow it through to completion, you will make a new ally, receive several items and perhaps doom the world? It's a bit higher level (around level 12 to safely do) but it has numerous rewards along the way. Lastly, you can steal several items of high value from the woman! It's a triple win!īeginning in the Driftwood region, this quest has you travelling all over. Each character will also get experience points which is great. Firstly, you get some stat points that you might not get otherwise. Definitely not one to skip over!įound beneath Driftwood, this quest is very handy. It also has a ton of experience points associated with it, virtually guaranteeing you level up, if you can handle the many level 11+ battles. It also intersects a few other quests, making it great for knocking out several quests at once. It starts in the Driftwood area, but takes you all over. The Shadow Over Driftwood questline is an extremely valuable one. It also lets you not worry about the Purging Wands at all, so if you have no mages, or simply don't want to bother finding all the wands, do this quest instead and you can say goodbye to those pesky Shriekers. However, if you pull it off it will make the final boss battle in the Fort Joy region much easier. This is a tough one, because it requires you to beat a very difficult fight in a cave. Do be warned, the Magisters will all become hostile towards you if your collar is missing. It can be handy to have done and is simply nice, since it lets you equip necklaces once it's removed. Want that darn Collar taken off? Do the arena! This quest line, although tough, will result in you having your Source Collar removed far earlier than normal. The uses for this are many, such as moving objects in the world, or removing enemies from your vicinity during combat. Since it's a permanent enchantment, this means any character you want can have Teleportation as early as 30 minutes into the game. They are enchanted with Teleportation, one of the most useful spells in the game. Early on, you're tasked with finding a pair of gloves. That you can't fathom someone else liking something you don't leaves little to discuss, but I did want to clarify that point.The whole reason for doing this is less about the quest, but the item involved. Nostalgia, let alone "Completionism" has nothing to do with it - I'd have to go back to the original Zelda/King's Quest for that, or Asteroids/Pong. I've played most all games I have wanted to play. It wasn´t a bad game but nowadays there is nothing remarkable about it Only reason I can imagine somebody might still want to play this, in this day and age, is some form of obsessive completionism or a heapton of nostalgia.Īnd if you actually played both games before, the only reason you can defend this, is nostalgia. There is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of games that are way better and at this point in time there is no reason for anyone to play the first two divinity games - except you already played all the other actually good crpgs, Hack&SLash and Action-RPGS out there - and trust me, you didn´t. Often you can get the old games, DD at least, for a couple bucks on GoG if not here. ![]() Originally posted by Bowerick Wowbagger:+1 I'm pretty sure Larian's loyal fanbase began with these games for a reason, that being they are good - aged, but good. Much of the Source, another take on it, is within the first story, too. The story is decent and the characters pretty cool. dungeon crawlers / diablo-style-sorta stuff there is little to not like about it. There is no right/wrong answer there but to just say not to play a game is kind of silly when the reasoning is it's not the same. (It's a decent game though).īut the thing is this has come up prior and several people listed Divine Divinity above this game even. Divinity 2 is ARPG so yeah, I'll give ya that one. They're a different sub-genre, at least the first two. I played the other games and even though they are not bad, they are not great either - and a different genre than D:OS1+2. They are nothing like the Original Sins series. Originally posted by Alundaio:Don't play the other games.

![]() The appearance of coalitionary aggression is an exciting possibility for primatology research. It’s probably no coincidence that coalitionary aggression-starting with the attack on Inshuti in 2004, and two further incidents in 20-began to pop up around the same time. For some reason, multi-male groups started emerging, in some cases nearly reaching male-female parity. Gorillas have tended to live in “harem”-like structures with one male, multiple females, and their offspring. This means that animals like chimps and humans, who live in groups with multiple males, can team up and engage in coalitionary violence. The animals in the team all individually have a much lower level of risk, and attacks allow them to get rid of the threat and competition of outsiders. ![]() If you have three friends at your back, though, the individual with whom you’re picking a fight is the one who’s likely to end up much worse off. In a one-on-one fight, the risk to each individual is considerable: neither male has an obvious advantage, and a strong likelihood exists that if you get involved in a fight like this, you’ll end up severely injured or dead. One of the explanations for this difference highlights the role of risk. Chimpanzees, on the other hand, share cooperative aggressive behavior with humans: they coordinate with other members of their social groups to conduct lethal attacks and raids. While many conflicts between them are limited to aggressive displays like chest-beating (i.e., all bark and no bite), they do occasionally fight and kill each other one-on-one. Multi-male groups mean opportunities to gang upĪlthough gorillas generally have the reputation of being “gentle giants,” Rosenbaum says this reputation is questionable: “This is kind of the iconic species for infanticide!” But unlike humans and our closer cousins the chimps, gorillas haven’t been known for what’s called “coalitionary aggression:” the tendency to team up with other individuals to beat the crap out of another member of the same species.Īdult male gorillas certainly don’t always get on with each other. Why he inspired such aggression is not clear, but he has the dubious honor of being the first recorded victim of gorilla-on-gorilla mob violence. Inshuti escaped with extensive injuries when the attack suddenly and mysteriously stopped short. If the gorillas had been doing this kind of thing in the preceding 40 years, someone would have noticed. ![]() Seeing an entire group attack in coordination was totally unheard of-and this is a gorilla population that has been under close observation since Dian Fossey started studying them in the 1960s. “It was hands-down the most surprising and disturbing thing that I have ever seen in my years in the forest,” says Stacy Rosenbaum, who researches social behavior in gorillas. The alpha male bit into Inshuti and shook him like a wolf shakes its prey. As the males pinned him to the ground, the rest of the group (including females and juveniles) caught up with them and attacked Inshuti as a mob. Observers from the Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda watched as Inshuti sped away, pursued by three males from the Beetsme group. Inshuti followed them nonetheless, and that seemed OK-at first.īut then the screaming started. When he approached the Beetsme gorilla group, its males made it clear that they didn't want him around. Inshuti, a lone silverback, couldn't accept that he wasn't welcome. Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International reader comments 91 with ![]() College grad and military rebates are not included.

However, when you use iTunes Timer Widget, it actually takes this process out of your hands. What the free ones do, is that they utilize a website to provide them with the information they need to install their program on your computer. And it's free! There are many people that think that using a free application is not going to be as effective as a paid application, but this is not true. This is a great application for any person that needs to maximize their downloads speed and get your files right in front of you. There are many other applications that do the same thing, but none of them provide as many features as iTunes Timer Widget. This is an amazing free tool that can help you maximize your download speed and get your files right in front of you, while freeing up more time for your family and business. Some users have complained about lags and glitches. ![]() The free version offers plenty of time tracking functionality for a single person, but its mobile app is less robust. Although it's a better option for teams, it can also be used by solo professionals or students. Clockify is also inexpensive and provides a reliable way to track your hours. It also does not support managing PTO requests, so it's not ideal for those looking for a more advanced solution. It's also great for tracking tasks and projects, although it's not recommended for businesses that need advanced features for employee scheduling. This time-tracking app is best suited for companies with a hybrid team, which have employees working from different locations. While there are several features available with Clockify, it's still not a perfect solution for every organization. ![]() The app also has a web version that allows you to manage projects, invite your team and review timesheets.

You can get the desktop goose free download at .Ĭlockify Review - Time Tracking Software For Mac Clockify is an online tool for time tracking. This makes it an ideal video editing and creation application for use on any type of Mac laptop. It also has an option to edit and convert to a video and audio so that you can add images and sound to your video or to make an audio and video track for broadcast. There are a number of other great applications for the Mac as there are for PCs, but the most important thing is that it is fully compatible with video production application such as Avid, Apple iMovie, Final Cut Pro and Premiere Elements. The main reason why it works so well on Macs is because the computer has a version of the Window startup program that is built to run under the same DLL files. Most of the time this happens because a lot of the tools and applications that are built into OS X are built to use specific DLL files to load onto the system, which is not something that the desktop goose does. If you were to use it on an older operating system such as Leopard or Snow Leopard then you will have problems getting the software to work correctly. One of the main advantages of using the software on a Mac is that you can use the app on any version of the operating system including OS X Lion and above. The benefits are that it has been designed to provide some of the best editing and creation features that you could ever use on your computer, and since it is completely legal to download it, it also means that it won't get you into trouble with copyright laws. This allows you to become familiar with the software without having to buy it. The free download of the Windows version has a user guide that takes you through the entire process of using the software. Desktop Goose is a highly efficient and cost-effective video production solution that allows you to edit a video using any video program on your computer.
