Those coming to the series for the first time should not be dismayed Return to Monkey Island does a fantastic job at including all players in the story through its dialogue and goes even further with its scrapbook-like retelling of the previous games. Return to Monkey Island takes you on a journey through Guybrush Threepwood, telling his son Junior the Tale of how he finally found the secret to Monkey Island. Well, after playing through this latest instalment twice, I have my answer: it's both. Was this a new game or a remaster? Many classic locations were featured throughout the trailers, each with a new spin or twist. During the marketing for Return to Monkey Island, I found myself confused throughout. Return to Monkey Island gives new and old audiences a chance to set sail in the Caribbean, conquering nostalgia while evolving its characters in a new direction to set the scene for the future of this series. The point-and-click adventure game was always a staple of every PC store I visited, which led me to sail the seven seas with Guybrush Threepwood and now that I am in my late 20s, I get to play a new adventure with my favourite pirate, all with a fresh coat of paint. ![]() Before Assasin's Creed found its black flag before Skull and Bones had been delayed again before Sid Meier's Pirates, Ron Gilbert brought a more witty and flamboyant spin to the pirate genre with The Secret of Monkey Island. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Happiness now calculates with the population number of each residence building type instead of the number of residences of a certain type.Changed the calculation of average happiness to better count in Tourists.1) Install the Anno 1800 modloader 1) Install the Anno 1800 modloader by copying the 'bin' folder into your main Anno 1800 folder.

I don’t know if this can be topped.ġ0/10 A Fireplace For Your Home: Birchwood Edition (Netflix) ![]() Once again George has flexed his pyrotechnical muscle and built us an excellent fire that burns cleanly for over two hours - and we get to experience the whole thing raw and uncut, from first light to roaring apex to dwindling coals. We’re back, baby! Same fireplace, but this time in 4K! And it sounds like George dished out for a microphone upgrade, too? The crackling and popping sounds are crisper, cleaner, and have more oomph in this installment. My only complaints are that this video looks like it was filmed in 2010 (because it was), and the corny Christmas music can’t be muted without also nixing the crackling noises.ħ/10 A Fireplace For Your Home: Classic Edition (Netflix) I’m actually impressed that it burned so well without any poking or log adjustment. This is a full-fledged, start-to-finish fire experience that kicks off with George lighting the logs, and runs straight through, uninterrupted, until the logs have turned to ash and the flames are on the verge of dying out. Not only does this one have opening credits (which are hilarious, because it’s just one guy named George Ford), but it also appears to be more than just a 30-second loop. Right off the bat, Netflix’s fireplace video offering seems much more promising. YouTube fireplace videos are all the same. It’s effectively the same video as the first two. I was lured in by the fact that this video is apparently “live” and streaming from Sweden, but it appears that I was deceived.

They’ve tossed out all the little imperfections that make life interesting and enjoyable, and instead given us an idealized “perfect” version that’s flat, flavorless, and sterilized in the name of mass appeal. This is probably definitely the whiskey talking, but these YouTube fireplace videos are emblematic of everything that’s wrong with society these days. If they spent half as much time producing the video as they did stuffing the headline with SEO-optimized keywords, then this could’ve been 10 times better. Honestly, I should’ve guessed that this would be the case based on the video title.

This film is very recommended for watching by everyone, from children to adult, even elderly, because of its own picture and its value. By watching this movie, I cried and created an advice for my own, "Believe in yourself that you can reach what you want as long as you want to try more, more and more, nothing impossible in this world." Moreover, the plot twist reminds us for not to ease believing someone and not to judge a book by its cover. ![]() It made me doubt that I could reach my dream. I had a dream that it was very difficult for me at that time. This movie was very impressive to me when I watched in 2016, I was in senior high school. And don't be afraid to fall on our journey, believe in ourselves that we can, we can, and we can. And for facing our problem, just ignore people say for braking our dream, just keep trying and prove that we can do for reaching our dream. One problem has been solved and another problem will come to us, of course, that's a life. Life is all about problems, problems always come and leave. Same as its soundtrack, this movie reminds us not to give up on everything, just keep trying and trying, trying everything and making something new. This part gives us some breaks when we have a bit been bored think who is the mastermind of the problem. In the beginning, she was very good and helpful to Judy, but it turned out that she was a mastermind of all of "disaster" in the movie. This is the most unexpected part of this movie when Mrs. So, we, as gazer, can enjoy both of picture and the song. The sound track, Try Everything by Shakira, is very representative that movie and it suits when it played while Judy Hopps was enjoying her journey from her hometown to Zootopia. From the dubbing, sound effect, and of course the sound track. This movie has a beautiful color, contras but still in harmony and it makes gazer, from children to adult, be able to enjoy this movie well.įor me, every single sound in this movie is nice, very nice. It eases children to know how feature of the characters are, so they won't be confused by watching this movie especially when some characters change their appanage. It run a same way when some characters turn characteristic, from good to bad or vice versa, we can know it directly by their expression. We can know directly how is a character's feature even just see them, not watch them. The characters are drawn well, suit to their characteristic.

She had been underestimated by every one for dreaming to be police, even by her parents. There are many big and strong animals such rhinoceros or lions who are more appropriate to be police than just a bunny. There is no matter if the citizen are just rabbits, but the problem is the citizen are not only rabbits but all of animals are over there. Ya, just a little rabbit who has wanted to be a policewoman since she was child while there was no rabbit be police. And the main character is a bunny or we know it as a rabbit called Judy Hopps.
