A photoshopped image of what could be RMS Titanic. At this point I've come across so many of these fake images, some use screenshots from the movie so there's that to consider. Perspective is everything, whoever made these photos have zero concept of just that, or how set shadowing effect correctly. This image is like four images in one - why is the ship blurred but the men in the corner crisp? Then of course steam is used to hide something, and it's heavily pixelated, so I'm guessing a stock photo stretched out. In actual images of Titanic and even Olympic, you rarely see steam - that should tell any Titanic fan/historian/enthusiast that these photos are the fakest thing in Fakeville.

I give you a perfect example that proves why that above image is 100% fake:

This was taken by Father Browne back in 1912, and as you can see people on the dock are like specks next to the great ship. Sherlock senses people! Question everything and you won't get scammed.

This new character Sargon isn't The Prince. In past games The Prince is a playable character, but now that isn't the case. You know what I'm getting tired of, companies deciding to change franchises to cater and they use words like "modernize, diverse, fresh, new!" as selling points. Notice how this decision destroys franchises. Adding new characters is fine, do that 'till the cows come home I don't care, but why does he look like he just stepped out of Wakanda? In past games, the characters fit the area and also Ubisoft is forgetting that The Prince is a royal warrior who can get himself out of danger. Looking at the premise, Sargon has to save The Prince........who the fuck is this punk? The Prince was a total daredevil in Sands of Time, he went up against an entire army. And what about the time he fought a shadow version of himself, the whole point of that was to show he went from immature trickster to mature warrior/fighter. The movie showcased that! What the serious hell?!

The color scheme is all wrong, I feel like I'm looking at a Little Mermaid or My Little Pony game. I've been playing Prince of Persia since 1989 and even the first game had dark tones to it, an evil vizier locks a princess in the tower and you have to escape a dungeon in order to save her. That first game was timed, hence the hourglass next to the princess. The game is set in Medieval Persia, wars and battles are going on so the dark gritty feel works, not bright Sugar Rush Birthday Bash! To the person that said "even with all the bright colors, there's still a hint of darkness." go home, you don't belong here.

It's hilarious to me how defenders for this game know nothing about the games. Past games might have a solid story, it wasn't same old "prince saves the girl from evil vizier". However, the gameplay itself would be trash, a lot of games suffered from this. Good story/bad gameplay or the other way around. To the people screeching "Prince of Persia fans are never happy, can't please them, just look at 2008!" Okay 2008 was over 15 years ago, and Legend of Zelda fans rejected Skyward Sword so that's not an argument. Plus if you look at what was released in 2008, Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe was highly anticipated (for good reason, watching Batman beat the shit out of Scorpion was amazing), Guitar Hero Tour/Aerosmith/World Tour, and Mario Kart pretty much took over the late 2000s. Seriously what is your argument concerning PoP fans not being happy? That 2008 Prince of Persia had a solid story, but the gameplay was meh. For the record, the last Prince of Persia game released was in 2013, it was a remake to the 1993 game The Shadow and the Flame. It sucks that we finally get a new Prince of Persia game and it's just a rip off from another Ubisoft franchise.

The price of this game is $60, why the fuck would I spend that kind of money when The Prince is an unplayable character (a lot of gamers are pissed about that) and has been turned into a damsel in distress? He doesn't need to be saved, past games/source material prove as much. Also if the plot is a cut/paste of Assassin's Creed Mirage, why not just buy the original? Think if Nintendo decided Link wasn't the Chosen Knight and he should be saved by I Am Error Guy, then dropped a Pokemon storyline into the next Zelda game. That's basically what Ubisoft did with this game.

I thought Lori's victim act was bad enough. I think this one is worse, especially since Felicity is like "I felt like I had to give a future to my kid" well you dumb bitch, that opportunity was destroyed with your actions because you basically let everyone know your daughter is a dumbass and needs mommy to fix it with criminal actions. She says other dumb shit that sounds like a movie scene and I don't believe happened because I'm sure it is from a movie, but the racist things she said while trying to be a victim is once again showing how fucking dumb this woman is.

She spent 11 days in prison and she's acting like she has PTSD now. Get bent bitch. I spent a month in prison for having drugs in my car, yet she sits there and acts like she just got back from war. The fact that I'm supposed to sympathize with her because she was handcuffed - so was I, no special treatment for you bitch. And she keeps trying to say she did this for her daughter but basically she's throwing her daughter under the bus, the translation being "my reason for being a criminal now is because of my dumbass daughter."

Is your mom a crackhead? Long distance relationships were a thing in the Middle Ages, what the fuck is she talking about? Video chat exists, is she really trying to say "My adult dumbass daughter has a bunch of imaginary friends."

Well duh. There are glitches, crashes, and the worst is when a site freezes. Every other week a social media site is down, and I'm supposed to believe Artificial Intelligence is the future of movie making? The AI unit has to be plugged into a machine in order to work, as soon as that machine malfunctions so will the AI unit. I'd say go the route of claymation but I've seen behind the scenes footage for those movies, a five minute segment in the movie can take 8 hours of moving characters and background around.

January rolled around and I contacted Tom, asking how things were going.  He told me The Oregonian wasn’t interested in my story because Longview was too far away………………….what?  Okay first of all The Oregonian has run tons of stories on colorizers and their work over the years, why would mine be any different?  Second, my location has literally nothing to do with my art.  So if The Oregonian rejected my story, I don’t believe it was for THAT reason.  In fact, I don’t believe the newspaper rejected me IF they were told about me because my hometown is celebrating 100 years, that would be an opportunity I would think.  So I’m just putting it out there that Tom never told The Oregonian about my story.  Tom did assure me he had another ace up his sleeve, there was a magazine he was affiliated with called Old Stuff Magazine.  And again he went silent.  Why am I the one who constantly has to contact him?

Last night I sent an email that basically asked “It’s been seven months, you had a plan, what’s going on?”  As angry as I was, I didn’t use nasty language or hostile wording, just came right to the point.  Tom took it way too personal, and at the same time exposed himself in his response.  He said that he pursued the story as far as he could…….okay if you hit a dead end why not just contact me and be fucking honest about it?  Say “Hey sorry but I can’t find anyone who wants to print the story” but instead there was this need to hide information from me.  He then went on to say he offered my story to publishers pro bono out of respect to my work - Are you serious right now?!  Pro bono means free of charge, you didn’t even get in touch with me and discuss that!  Also what publishers did you talk to?  So far the only places you’ve told me about are The Oregonian and Old Stuff Magazine, so unless you give me business names you’re straight up lying.  Holy shit I know the scam, I used to tell my parents “I went to stores and asked for applications”, that really meant I went to two stores.  Oh and then he ended it with “Some stories just don’t pan out.  Given the tone of your message, this will definitely be one of them.”  In other words, he got caught putting my story on the back burner and doing nothing with it.  All I did was ask a question, no hostility or profane language and Tom went full blown unprofessional by trying to make it out like I attacked him and he’s the victim.  Fuck off dude.  It’s been seven fucking months.

Again, I was mad as a hornet because he never kept in touch with me and yet again I had to contact him, but kept it professional.  The attempt at saying I attacked him is so immature for a man in his 60s.

I was there, it’s not something to joke about.  People were scared out of their minds that they were going to die.  Some actually unalived themselves, friends I had in high school and even adults just couldn’t take it.  Parents/relatives of the girls I danced with, they were so terrified of Y2K that they took their own life.  The suicide rate skyrocketed, and I blame the media for that.  The media ran with this whole thing that the Apocalypse was coming, the world was ending after December 31, 1999.  The nonstop specials on accurate predictions through the centuries, it got annoying how obsessed the media was with the entire world being wiped out.  There were a lot of people who built bunkers and stocked up on food/supplies, store shelves were wiped out far beyond what you saw during lockdown.  A lot of people got rid of their computers because the media spun endless lies about Y2K and technology.  The idea there was a virus that would take over a computer, go through wires and take over other appliances.  Just dumb stuff like that.

Try being a junior/senior in high school, all that hard work and it turns out you won’t graduate because the end of the world is coming.  That was my reality, as it was for fellow graduates.  Those who didn’t fall for the hype, their lives went on as usual, but those who lost friends/family to Y2K?  Or dished out thousands of dollars on a useless bunker?  Yeah. 

I don’t even follow mythology but fucking…those goddesses have responsibilities!!!! The Greek goddess Athena is a damn warrior, she’s known for military! If it were a mans world, that would’ve never happened because the responsibility would’ve been given to a man!  Ancients worshiped these deities, there were shrines and temples everywhere, offerings were left.  The Oracle was a fucking woman and famous generals like Alexander the Great refused to make a move without seeing HER.  Even the movie Gladiator shows how ancient society worked, while Maximus was off at war, his wife took care of the farm.  Taxes didn’t stop for soldiers, so women were extremely smart when it came to business because if they weren’t, Mr. Ruler Man would take their land.  Women ran all kinds of businesses such as making/dying linen or bread making, and there are accounts that they were as shrewd then as now.  To close up on this topic, that Minoan mural of WOMEN flipping over a bull.  There aren’t any murals of men doing that.

So how is it our ancient ancestors saw the woman as a being to worship, and yet now society chooses to make asshole remarks like “you’re nothing more than a dog toy”?  Also what is this obsession with fertility?  Sure ancients were obsessed with it but come the fuck on.  On the first date you’re really planning on impregnating a woman, what other fucking reason would you have to be so damn obsessed with a woman’s egg count after 30?  Sure I’m obsessed with sex but I like to get to know the woman, when I see a pretty face I don’t think “Yeah, I hope she’s fertile enough to carry my child”.  That was uncomfortable to type, how the fuck does the internet feel fine spreading that shit around?  I’m just putting this out there to all the pinheads going around spreading the science about womens aging, that is also the case for men, not sure how that fact flew all the way over your fucking head.  My sperm count started dropping in my late 20s, yet here’s the internet acting like that’s a thing that doesn’t happen.  IT DOES.  There are men who are infertile, as in they don’t produce sperm.  These so called scientists never want to talk about that.  Same with women, there is a condition where they can’t produce eggs.  Yet these morons are going around “you’re ugly after 30 because your egg count went down”.  These are the brain dead dumbasses who jack off to Elvira and have no idea she’s 70.
