Even though I do want children myself eventually, I think those doctors are silly for wanting to limit the person from their wishes of no children. It's bonkers.

"Oh, you want to do any ? Why, we know better than someone who probably has already took years thinking about it!"

Medical gatekeeping is real. It's annoying. It's why abortion, fertility treatments (of many kinds), HRT, and so on, all honestly should be way easier to access with the person's own consent.

They might argue, but what about the regret rate, the 10 people that according to some rag paper regret it for life. And then they promptly ignore that many 100,000s of people actually have been enormously helped by it, and that they won't magically go away if you make it harder to access -- you'll just make it unsafer for them, because now they rely on trenchcoat abortions, poor surgeries, lack of safe medicine due to deliberate underfunding of training, forbidding life-saving medicine, etc.

We oblige no duty to breed. Instead, we have a plight to make life enjoyable for ourselves and for each other. This goes their way too.

Can't exactly blame the Lithuanians for distrusting Russians, tbh. They have been not exactly kind to the country in the recent past, with their russification and whatnot.

Russia in general also.

Still is ongoing. And nobody got life imprisonment and all wealth confiscated for this degree of lying, nobody of them got prohibited from calling people who criticised or tackled them "ecofascists"

I don't think I ever saw someone wear clogs there. Bicycling on an omafiets/opafiets is the way to do it.

Specify the country. Here (NL) judges must have gone through law school.

Sure, it might be AC1 in its "purest" form, but that is because it's just the first game, which sets the tone. I give it credit for doing that, but that's it. I do recall that at the time it was received relatively lackluster.

Exchange Odyssey with 1, correct for what the consoles and computers were capable for at the time, and you might say the same, that it would've been AC in its purest form, and nowadays it's all underbloated and too poor, not rich in detail.

Personally, I found the parkour in the first few games very boring. It certainly did have restrictions of movement. You could not climb outside city walls, or stones, or trees. May I remind you that games from III (when Desmond died) and on, actually started in that?

I fear your memory might be selective, but no one is holding you back from playing the older games. I personally prefer the newer ones as they actually do have deeper stories.

So, yes: I do give the first game crap, because it is not accessible for handicapped people (eg. a lack of good subtitles), and it was very glitchy (you could only attack the Lionheart when you pushed him through the corridor, when this was not intended gameplay). And all that, while it should have been accessible and less glitchy and repetitive, even compared to other games at the time.

You simply have a rosy coloured view of the past, I'm afraid; try looking more rosy towards the future, be thankful, and there may be less reason for chagrin. Have a good evening.

1. While I might or might not be one, no need to assume that someone is a dude.

2. I have played every single game and still have access to them. I cannot say that of many people.

3. If you wish to argue in good faith, never straight up assume someone is directly lying. Be an example for the internet and show good faith!

4. That said, that you think later games don't have their own mythology, may be signs that you never played those games, because they also draw forth on those in-game mythologies. 'Course, I cannot say so, but if you haven't, I suggest you to do so; and if you reject, then you have no right to complain, honestly. Complain once you've played through it.

In short: nuff.

Most people in my country can do it.

Exactly, it's awesome.

They did not remove parkour and social stealth lol. I don't know what drugs you are on, but in Valhalla you absolutely do have stealth, for example distrust areas.

Parkour is also available in cities. And stories sucking? Lol. Valhalla literally draws from actual historical mythology, as does Odyssey. Modern story is also more than just "OMG??? Symbols??" nowadays, having more depth, and also continues like the older games, eg. a character being replaced by another, or killed, just as the Ezio games have.

Also, the buildings are actually bigger than in the older games. In the older games you could walk around one in like 8 seconds, in the new one you might need 30 seconds.

I remember all of them and honestly, actually no. Of the modern games, only in Odyssey was the acting a bit bad in that people would always do the same repetitive arm movements (lift arm, raise, even when angry, or sad, or it was exaggerated).

You probably misremember the missions being repetitive. I dare you to play AC1, that one was real repetitive compared to literally everything after.
