Football transfer talk summer 2022
killamch89 and one other reacted to Yaramaki for a topic
I always enjoy this part of the year, transfer rumours, clubs spending money like there is no tommorow to upgrade their squad. So why not open a thread for this transfer window, what are some done transfer you are exited about and what are some interesting ones, which ones are bound to flop. This year it's unusual how many players left on a free transfer, let's see the most interesting ones Axel Witsel -> From Dortmund one a free to Atletico Madrid (my favourite team in spain) Divock Origi -> Ac Milan on a free transfer from Liverpool Paul Pogba -> Back to juventus i know @Justin11 and @Heatman love to talk about football, so i'll start chiping in more often from now in the sports section on the board.2 points -

Bugs are a thing, as long as they are doing update patches I can't say that they are bad or good. It's like microsoft flight simulator, so far I spent over $200 on Aircrafts LOL not the sim itself. Fenix A320 = £50 PMDG 737 = £55 B146 = £48 aerosoft twin otter = £35 The Junker = £15 Spitfire = £381 point

Do you think VAR is helping to correct the mistakes of referees in matches?
killamch89 reacted to Justin11 for a topic
Yes, their is conspiracy here, that's what they were doing until sir Alex Ferguson retired. Now, they aren't in that position to manipulate the outcome of matches.1 point -
I'm not going to mince my words, what you just posted is not just obviously wrong, it's disgusting. @Crazycrab clearly put up a lot of evidence to your contrary about the quality of the woman's game and left your argument so utterly destroyed there is no point in me taking that any further, so what I'll do instead in explain why there is such a big wage gap between men and woman in professional football, because it's actually very simple. Football for men has been a professional sport for around 150 years. In that time, it has grown, developed, gained in popularity, gained investment and a following to become an industry in of itself worth $billions. The men in the sport are paid far too much and that's a product, or perhaps a mishandling, of the time the men's game has had to grow. It had all that traction without rival, and not to mention many decades to grow into the, frankly, lucrative world it is today. The woman's game, by contrast, has not only been a professional sport for a mere 30 years or so and has thusly not had the time to grow into lucrative world the men's game is. It's also got that men's game as a commercial rival, creating a challenge to get this off the ground that men's game didn't even have to contend with. The woman's game quite simply has not had that chance to become what the men's game is. It's only been in the last few years I've seen the woman's game get at least some sort of push by mainstream media at all. That little insight was my favour to you, and that's all you get from me as I'm not interested in spending my time on here debating with a sexist little twirp. I know you posted again as I was typing this, but I don't care. Got help you when the day comes you actually have to deal with woman in the real world.1 point

killamch89 reacted to Justin11 for a topic
Very funny indeed, Alex Ferguson always do that. I used to wonder if he wants to cut the referees ear, when whispering to them. That's just his tricks to decisive the referees to do his wish and overturn the scoreline in their favour.1 point -
Why do so many games have fishing mechanics in them?
Withywarlock reacted to Kane99 for a topic
Why not have fishing mechanics in games? It adds more to a game and can be fun if done right. RDR2 fishing is simple, but works fine. And it nets you a lot of money in game . I think when you make more open world games, they may add hunting and fishing in more games.1 point -

Football transfer talk summer 2022
killamch89 reacted to Justin11 for a topic
You're welcome @Yaramaki, the sports section has been my most preferred niche here on VGR. Back on topic: Here is my take on player transfers this summer, here are the best deals so far for me, it doesn't matter if they're gotten for free or not. What I see in them is potential to succeed in their current team. - R. Lewandowski - FC Bayern Munichen - FC Barcelona '€50m including add-ons. That's the best transfer for the season, who came in the back of having 50 goal haul last season, claiming the European golden shoe once again. - Darwin Nunez, Benfica FC - Liverpool FC '£64m. Nunez is seen by many as a potential red's legend, be has the potential to seize his opportunity so great in the premier league this season. Let's see how it goes for Darwin Nunez when the season gets underway. - Erling Haaland, from Borusia Dortmund to Manchester city - '£51m. Erling Haaland's father played for city who bears the name 'Alfie Haaland, and was a star back then, when his son 'Erling, used to be a fan boy for the club. Now, the son is a player, this time, I believe he'll perform incredibly more than what his father achieved with the club. He got the potential of becoming a premier league top goal scorer if he puts on the show during his stay at Dortmund, and hopefully become a city legend if he plays for good number of years and keeping his current standards or doing better. Other notable transfer options I truly admired are; - Raheem sterling, from Manchester city - Chelsea '£47.5. - Gabriel Jesus, from Manchester city - to Arsenal - £45m. He has plenty goals already in their ongoing pre-season tour. - Raphinha - Leeds united to FC Barcelona - '£49m.1 point -

I wasn't trying to insult you, I'm not even sure how you got that idea. My comments were not directed at you. I was venting my frustration at the anti-vax mentality in general. I guess I was a bit blunt and out of place and for that I apologize. Get well soon.1 point -

At what point do you level up speech?
Withywarlock reacted to Empire for a topic
train speech and then pickpocket that gold back. it is a nice cheaty way of leveling up both speech and pickpocketing easily. works well up to level 51. after that training fee jumps up and pickpocketing gets harder. after that you may wanna do bard's college questline early. it gives you +15% faster speech leveling and many other opportunities to level up speech.1 point -
How do you feel about games that are hundreds of hours long?
Withywarlock reacted to Empire for a topic
Many games have insane replayability, and is often the point of them. Like a sport in real life, its the same game, but people keep going back because while similar in rules, the game is never the same each time you play. I think if you sink lots of time into one game and enjoyed it, then you got a ton of your money's worth of entertainment. Its when I spend a small time in a game, that is when I feel like I got shorted. Some games like DOTA, POE and LOL are essentially free(if you so choose) and they can give you over 1000 hours of fun for no cost.1 point -

Thank you dude, I appreciatte the good vibes1 point -
That's the horrifying scene of the use of white phosphorus to kills innocent women and children in the game. If that doesn't invoke empathy in anyone, I wouldn't know what else would.1 point

Do you try to avoid a high civilian death toll?
Heatman reacted to kingpotato for a topic
Nope dont care, except maybe RDR2 because of the honor level and maybe skyrim since once a civilian npc dies it stays death and that sometimes ruins some quests1 point -
Videogame Franchises that outstayed their welcome?

I think that we have one here on VGR who's been going on and on with what Capcom have been doing with Resident Evil franchise for years now. It's @Candy Stick. Hey mate, are you still around...?1 point -
Nintendo's consoles vs. Nintendo's handhelds.
runswithspatulas reacted to kingpotato for a topic
Well in my opinion its because they are usually cheaper than the consoles or at least they used to be back when nintendo still had home and handheld consoles. So for parents it was a better investment rather than buying a more expensive home console.1 point -
