Get the mods so you can enjoy it in 16:9. It took me half an hour of tweaking to get everything to where I wanted it.

Loved this game, and the mods are great for playing it today. I just wish every other line wasn't about his darling Anneska. Like, build a bridge dude.

Looks awfully like https://www.twohandsus.com, and the mozz/meat combo indicates it might be similar if no the same.

LOL, SO true. But at least he's A source. Sadly, we don't have Claudius' history of the Julii but we think maybe Seutonius drew from it? Some modicum of truth is better than a vacuum.

>Not really. Seutonius notes that when his soldiers threatened to mutiny, Caligula ordered his men to pick up the musculi. This can transalate to seashells/mussels, but was also the word for the huts they were living in.

Reply to comment by 4huggies in Google Stadia is dead and Nvidia GeForce Now gets a price cut – what’s going on? by Hyperion1144
Depends on the hotel's setup, really. I've seen places in NC do just fine. I've done plenty of travel as a GF Now founding member and the only bad experiences are :
- Mom and pop places that had a high school kid do their set up
- Old hotels where the brickwork interfered with signal
- Being around the world from the closest endpoint
None of these were issues for non-twitch gaming. And yeah, I can play Cyberpunk with raytracing on an iPad if I want to.

General health and safety and security reasons sure. But let's not forget at this age, she was still actively hunting (Guessing this is about mid 80s when the rifle was first fielded)
