When everybody uses WhatsApp to communicate, which is a meta service, it’s a bit complicated to cut off communication with literally everybody in your country (work, friends, businesses) just to not use a service. It’s disingenuous to expect this without some sort of change within the current status quo. And this is coming from someone who doesn’t use any of their other platforms but has to use WhatsApp, because that’s literally the only choice

Totally agree, steam is one the big players that stills offers a quality service both for consumers and for developers

Not European, but from a country that also uses the metric system. We give out our height in meters, as you said. Saying it in cm would be okey for medical reasons I suppose. Also there isn’t much difference in what unit you use, you just have to multiply/divide by 100, which is easily done in your head
Indeed f, indeed
cries in steam is no longer a viable store where I live
Yeah that’d be a bit worrisome I reckon lol. I do want to experience a cold Christmas someday tho
Yo por ti perdí la calma y casi pierdo hasta la cama 🎶
Laughs in Argentinian with regular +40°C Christmases lately
I don’t mean to start a discussion here, but this is your interpretation and it’s valid. But galadriel’s character has contradictory history depending on your sources (even regarding the kinslaying). And it’s debated even between Tolkien’s scholars the extend at which she can ‘sense evil’. After all, she herself was deceived by saruman after his corruption during the third age.
In your last paragraph you say ‘nothing about her character in the series has any respect for Tolkien’s work’. That’s simply hyperbole, and arguably not true, as even a surface level reading can prove otherwise. Such words are not Tolkien’s way.
Anyway, I don’t want you to change your mind, just want you to be aware of the possibility of other interpretations. Take care!
I wouldn’t say naive, but definitely reckless. And I would 100% say they portrayed her as strong in the tv series. Hell, it begins with her on an incursion on the remains of angband, which if you know the lore I’d say it’s pretty badass. Her arc in season 1 was about how she was so blinded by revenge and recklessness, that she couldn’t see the evil in front of her. Which is pretty fitting for a noldor elf. It shows that even trying your hardest to make good, your actions can and will have unintended consequences, even ‘evil’ ones. Which perfectly sets up her eventual rejection of the one ring, during the mirror scene in fellowship of the ring. She knew then she’d have good intentions using it, but she also knew more evil will come with that
I haven’t played the gollum game, but rings of power was actually good tho
I would hardly consider ‘power users’ the ones who download via the API. I used to download them via BSPlayer, where it will prompt you in a nice user friendly interface if you needed subtitles for whatever you were watching. Well, that used the old OpenSubtitles API, and now that it’s gone it’s not gonna work anymore
Have you read the dev diary or watched the video before leaving a comment?
