  • While I agree that one should support developers of games they enjoy if they are able, I recently tried another playthrough of this game and it reminded me how unpolished it is.

    Things like

    • Quest NPCs taking very robot-like paths while walking (walk straight for 10 steps, turn right 90 degrees instantly, walk straight 5 steps…) instead of something more natural
    • Needing to wait 5 minutes for an NPC to get to a specific spot and/or complete actions before being able to continue conversation. Typically on the fight missions, you’d win the fight, they’d take 30 s to get up, then saunter over (using an unnatural path) to the designated spot, which then took another 10 seconds to activate the speech option finally.
    • Pedestrians diving into the road in front of your car instead of away.

    Perhaps games like GTA spoiled us, but I just found these too annoying to continue.



  • I agree, the assignments will need to adapt to discourage the use of LLMs. Easiest is in-class writing or written exams. Unfortunately that takes away from other class activities.

    I remember one of my favourite courses in university had exams where you could bring in any resource you wanted (excluding phones), because the exam was written in a way that required understanding of the core topic, something you can’t simply look up.















  • It’s unfortunate they don’t state things like the heating settings used and which trim level of each car was tested. Range can differ on a FWD versus an AWD version.

    Seems roughly accurate though. I took my Ioniq 5 for a cold weather test at -25 (105 km/h highway, little wind, heat on a comfortable level for just the driver) and got around 30 kWh/100km.

    I’m still going to use my ICE vehicle for any 200+ km trips that are necessary in frigid weather but the Ioniq is the preference for anything else.
