![]() ![]() Other interludes are expendable, such as Facebook Story, in which the French producer SebastiAn recites a moronic modern parable about social media. Pretty Sweet reaches heights of holy dissonance with an off-key children’s choir, a sound-clash reflected in the mad, atonal piano of André 3000 (the only instantly recognisable guest) on Solo (Reprise). There’s church music in their DNA: Nights (“I wanna see Nirvana, but don’t wanna die yet”) ends with a polyphony of Franks, like a gospel choir warming up in an empty hall. The largely beatless tracks are more abstract than those on Channel Orange, and reveal themselves as lush and atmospheric over time. Seigfried captures a feeling of cosmic detachment: “I can’t relate to my peers/ I’d rather live outside/ I’d rather chip my pride than lose my mind out here.” Blonde is a collection of quiet moments from the man who’s worked hard to make himself the most talked about thing on the internet. Solo is the sweet, homoerotically charged account of the space left behind by a toking buddy who is gone (“Now your baby momma ain’t so vicious, all she wants is her picket fence”). You find yourself caring anew about the “I” of these songs, who is reflected in snatches of impressionistic poetry, in sunlight, summer smoke and boxer shorts. There is still the powerful sense of a veiled introvert, and of the unlikely intimacy he achieves within this pose. The largely beatless tracks reveal themselves as lush and atmospheric over timeĭespite all this, Ocean has managed to preserve the musical personality that marked him out as special on 2012’s immersive, psychedelic R&B game-changer, Channel Orange. In the album credits, Ocean thanks pretty much everyone in popular music from Bowie to the Beatles – but he neglects to say who’s doing what, or if they’re doing anything at all. There followed a 45-minute visual album called Endless, and finally the real thing emerged – in a physical version which included a 360-page magazine featuring an interview with his mum, and as an iTunes-only download (a snub to Jay-Z’s Tidal service and, as the veteran industry ranter Bob Lefsetz saw it, a snub to Ocean’s fans). There were months of false starts, then a cryptic video about the album’s construction which showed Ocean lathing away at mysterious lumps of wood. I t should now be possible to separate Frank Ocean’s new album from the eye-poppingly pretentious way in which it was released.

![]() In fact, it wasn’t until Sims 3 when some careers started having the option for your sim to work on a specific lot. ![]() Rabbit holes have been a thing in the Sims since the first game was released. The mod is basically an overlay for every face in the game that makes them look plainer and less cartoony, adding some much appreciated realism to The Sims 3. This mod makes typical sim faces look much more realistic by improving the faces and facial expressions that you see in the base game. Ultra-Plain Facesīuilding off the previous mod we have this other one that improves face styles. The changes are plain, but very easily noticeable! 24. It changes the masks that EA uses for the vanilla game and makes them look better in terms of illumination and coloring. ![]() If you want the eyes of your sims to just look more natural then download this mod and give it a try. Since the game is a bit older now it’s fair to say that mods could be added to it to make the play experience feel much better.Īs such I’ve made this list of the best Sims 3 mods that you can add to your game to spice things up like never before. Not to mention all the amazing mods out there. Many have moved onto playing the Sims 4 since it has so many modern updates, but plenty of people love the Sims 3 for its charm and all the memories. Sims 3 offers something unique that no other Sims game provides to players – the chance to walk freely with no loading screens across any game world in the game. ![]() But you have got to learn to stop taking photos of your body." Your father and I didn't look inside the folder. As I sat under the covers of my bed, sobbing, my mom sat in a chair across from me and said, "I'm going to leave these photos with you. When my parents showed up, they took the folder and brought me home. Some were on the windshield, and some were in a folder that had the words "Whore," "Desperate," "Slut," "Bitch," and "Cunt" written on it. But even after breaking up with me, he didn't want to date her.Ī few weeks later, someone printed out the waist-down nude photos I had sent Jack and placed them on and inside my car in the public school parking lot, where they were found by administrators. He broke up with me because he said he wanted more freedom, though friends who knew him told me Kristine had allegedly pressured him to do it because she secretly still had feelings for him. We never had sex, but we did "fool around" in a cabin behind his house once. By 11th grade, our friendship dissolved, and I started dating Jack*, a friend of mine whom Kristine had dated briefly in middle school.Ī few weeks into our relationship, I sent him photos of myself both fully and partially naked. I had a best friend during my early teen years named Kristine*. Though it gives important visibility to those who are struggling with mental health and bullying in high school, Hannah's narrative further alienates and stigmatizes "slutty" women. ![]() Those virginal or chaste students who are bullied are worthy of our sympathy and support, but so are students like me. That's the big difference between my story and Hannah's, and where I think 13 Reasons Why missed the mark. And I was being ridiculed and bullied for it endlessly. I was doing things at that age that many people found "slutty." I was discovering my sexuality in a way that I felt was empowering. ![]() I identify strongly with Hannah Baker's story in 13 Reasons Why, except that the rumors about me were actually true. I was tired of asking for help or looking for friends and only finding hate or apathy. What I did know is that I didn't want to deal with my life anymore. I didn't know at the time that it wasn't possible to overdose on antibiotics. I was 14 when I started cutting myself, and I was 15 when I locked myself in a bathroom stall at my school, sobbing uncontrollably, and swallowed a handful of antibiotics. ![]() System requirement to get FL Studio for free
Rangers have to be underwater to rename their aquatic pets and view their attributes and skills. To rename a pet, a ranger has to be using that pet, open the Pet Management panel, then click on the quill icon to the left of the pet's name. Through the Pet Management panel, rangers can also rename their pets. There is also information relevant only to soulbeasts: the pet's Archetype, and the Beastmode skills this information is not relevant at all for rangers nor druids. They can also see the location where they tamed the pet. Each pet has three attacks (more on this below), and a unique Beast skill. In this menu, rangers can view the attributes and skills of their current pet. Once a pet is tamed, they will join the ranger and appear in the Pet Management panel, where rangers can choose to have that pet aid them in battle. The list of pet locations has the location of all pets for rangers wishing to charm them all without having to search for them.Ī key feature of the pet profession mechanic is the Pet Management panel, which can be accessed by clicking the current pet's portrait above the ranger's skill bar, or by using a shortcut key, which defaults to K. Nearly every area in the game, including cities, contains a number of juvenile pets to tame. After a short conversation, with a description written by the mysterious Acht, the pet will join the ranger. Any friendly animal (green nameplate) whose name begins with Juvenile can be tamed (charmed) by the ranger, unless they already belong to another ranger, by approaching them and using F or double-clicking them. ![]() Nevertheless, this choice only determines the ranger's first pet.Īs rangers venture into the world, they will find new pets for them to tame. For example, a norn can choose as their first pet a Juvenile Snow Leopard, a Juvenile Brown Bear, or a Juvenile Alpine Wolf whereas a sylvari has to choose between a Juvenile Blue Moa, a Juvenile Jungle Stalker, or a Juvenile Fern Hound. ![]() ![]() The choice of pet depends on the player's race. During character creation, rangers must choose one from among three pets to start the game with. New rangers venture into Tyria with one single pet. (8) Where the pet was tamed (this pet was chosen during character creation). (7) Beastmode skills and Archetype (only for Soulbeasts). (6) The pet's autoattack and their two pet skills. (4) The pet's name, and the option to rename them. (3) The pet currently being used, and their attributes. They aren't shared between different ranger characters on the same account (with the exception of the Hall of Monuments pets). Pets are only available to the ranger that tamed them. If the ranger is in the downed state, they can still use their pet to help in rallying them by finishing off the enemy or by having the pet revive them. If the ranger moves too far away, the pet will stop fighting and return to them. Most importantly, the ranger has control over the pet's Beast skill, an attack unique to each pet.īy default, pets attack the same target as the ranger, or whichever enemy is attacking the ranger. ![]() Pets use Artificial Intelligence to fight with the ranger and defend them, but the ranger can also give commands to the pet, such as commanding them to go attack a target before the ranger does, or stop attacking and run back to the ranger. They can be classified by their family, such as birds, canines, moas, bears, jellyfish, etc and also the environment in which they can live: land, aquatic, or both (amphibious pets). Rangers and their pets fight as a team, and are always together. Pets are the NPC allies that constitute the ranger's profession mechanic. It requires a lot of time, money and effort to remaster a 20 year old game and EA has chosen to spend their manpower and resources elsewhere. To remaster the game (which is over 20 years old at this point), requires the devs to review the code, look at how Windows operates today as opposed to 20 years ago, see what has changed to get the game to run properly in Windows 10, and to update information on newer processors, video cards and other computer components which the game accesses. ![]() To be honest, it is a lot more complicated than just reposting the game on Origin. That is the easiest and best solution at this time if you want to play the game. You can purchase the external disk drive or not. ![]() I'm afraid we will have to agree to disagree as they say. There are hundreds if not thousands of posts both here and on the Official Forums asking for the game to be digital. Not only myself, but the Community Managers who oversee all the forums here on AHQ and the Official Forums have passed on the concerns of the players to the Devs who are the ones who make the decisions. And you can (once you install the game) create a disk image on your computer to play the game without lugging around the disk drive.ĮA is aware of the Community wanting both the original and Sims 2 to be remastered and made digital on Origin. I do not advocate nor does EA pirating the game. You can still find copies on Amazon, E-Bay, your local game store that sells used copies of the game and thrift stores. I always make sure to advise people that both The Sims (original game) and The Sims 2 are only available for purchase in CD/DVD form and that to play the game requires an external disk drive which aren't that expensive in the long run. I am simply passing along information for other players who may or may not know this information and helping people to install and run their games. I'm a big fan of The Sims series and I am REALLY disapointed about the way EA treats this classic game that gave birth to everything we have EA made the decision to sunset the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection in October 2018. I thought a little disrispect, once my first question was about how to register The Sims Complete Collection in my account.Īfter 3 hours chatting trying to understand why the game will not be available on Origin to date, I concluded what was mentioned at the beginning of the publication. He also offered me The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection (I already own this one), saying that it was better than TS1. He said that a post in the forum could convince (or not) the developers to provide The Sims 1 in Origin. Instantly I looked for it to find answers about my issue.Īfter I searched topics in forum, I thought about what the clerk has told me "all attention of the developers" e asked him about it. I got lots of criteria about the fact that "The Sims Complete Collection is too old", until the clerk guided me to create a topic in Origin forum about this question to call attention of the developers. I notified the clerk about this, about Sims 2 also. ![]() So then, I started observing my game and I realized that it was produced in 2008. I answered saying that Origin owns older games than The Sims 1 (SimCity 2000, Theme Hospital.), and the clerk was unable to explain the availablity of these games. ![]() In the begining I thought I would be successfull in this process, until the moment when the clerk said that the registration wouldn't be possible because the game is very old. So I started a chat in US Origin (I'm brazilian) and asked for help to register the game in my account. I tried to register the game in my Origin Account, and as I imagined, the serial was not valid. Recently I've purchased The Sims 1 Complete Collection and I got really upset when I realized tha EA is being so neglect with the most successfull game that became this franchise so big.
