Finally "Completed" The Game
I really loved the game and funny enough, I didn't know completing the Shadow Of Wars would give me the true ending. I just played and was pleasantly surprised.

Real talk though I found this bag all the way at the back of the store. It's a mixture of the Endor Rebel Trooper and Imperial Trooper Battle Pack from 2012 and the Elite Clone Trooper & Commando Droid Battle Pack also from 2012. The sets are incomplete but the booklet and the inclusion of the cape box is really darn cool. The waist and shoulder cloth seemed to be bent wrong though.
Usually the store seperated a Lego lot into seperate bags but this was the only one.
Starting from Day 1 of progression, I did all my dailies and weekly quests. I'm waiting for the new skill to drop but for now, I'm done.
I love Rogue's naval combat and how it utilizes things like the puckle gun, icebergs, reverse boardings, etc. It also had a unique reverse boarding feature. I was hoping they would add it to the game. Is it because Edward Kenway never got boarded canonically before? Yes, it's not needed but it gives the player more reason to avoid being rammed from another ship. It's a really neat and simple feature that was only ever in Rogue.
It's the open seas, you board ships and they can board you if you're not careful. Gameplay wise it's basically a normal boarding but they jump on your ship. It's simple but adds a lot.
I found this small tin of Butter Cookies at Dollar Tree today. It was the only one on the store and I'm surprised it's still $1.25 when most items in the store is $1.75. I don't really care about the cookies, I just wanted the tin so I can store my sewing supplies.
Is this rare? Because I never seen them sell this before. Unless it's old stock they never got around to.
Hand for scale, it's the smaller tin.
I haven't seen anyone post this video yet but I randomly found it on YouTube. It's such a specific mad scientist hairstyle that it has to be Emmet Brown right? He should really pick better people to work with.
It's created by AirHardReal and I take no credit for it.
My Reverse Gravity Chamber
Hello everyone, here's my reverse gravity chamber that I made a while ago. It gives the illusion that the villagers and animals are walking upsidedown. The design is my own, using
The dinnerbone tag along with glass. I haven't seen anyone do this yet. They are just walking on glass and the height that I'm at right now masks that glass layer, making it invisible.

My friend went online and found this official Shadow Of War bottle opener for like less than $10. They got this for me and it looks darn cool. These were originally sold at GameStop when the game first came out and you can still get it for relatively cheap online.
The quality feels nice for a bottle opener but I'd probaly only use it for display.
Hey everyone so as a hardcore Bond fan I feel like I'm obligated to do a deep analysis on First Light's gunbarrel sequence. Just like Calvin Dyson with his video talking about Craig's gunbarrel, I will go into extreme detail about this sequence.
PERFORMANCE
Bond's walk here is really good. I know people have feelings about his gun being seen and not hidden but after the Daniel Craig era l'm more forgiving. Since Bond is portrayed as cocky in this game, I can give it a pass. He does sway his gun and doesn't keep it hidden. Bond is a show off and waving a gun around carefree does fit Patrick Gibson's portray.
His final stance is pretty darn perfect. They even allow him to shift slightly after shooting which is accurate to the traditional gunbarrels. Almost every gunbarrel has the actors stand still the best they can instead of freeze framing, this allows them to move slightly in place as the blood drips down. Also, I'm fairly sure this is the first gunbarrel to have Bond with a neutral smirk. Every other gunbarrel, Bond is serious or looks neutral but here, Gibson has a slight neutral smirk. I actually love this detail so much. He's earned this moment and the smile from the scene before almost carries over.
His walk speed is pretty decent as well. It's not too fast but feels more like a casual stroll. It does feel confident which is good. His turn is perfect. It's swift and immediately strikes the final awesome pose.
(This is import at because the most of the Roger Moore's gunbarrels had him turn slow and Skyfall's gunbarrel had him turn extremely quick.)
A short note on the suit he wears. It is a TACSISM exclusive and he does not wear it in the main game. I think this so deliberate to further drive home that Bond is the Bond we know and love. Finally earning the 00, the gunbarrel, and the suit.
GUNBARREL DESIGN
It not the traditional look from Maurice Binder but I actually do like it because they add something special. The shimmering effect reflecting off the matted gunmetal grey makes it feel like it has more color and adds a little more dynamic to it. It reminds me of the No Time To Die gunbarrel with its simplistic design.
The blood is actually slightly lighter than the recent Craig ones. I love that choice as it reminds some of the older sequences with slightly lighter blood. It's not as light as say Goldfinger's but it's similar to Dalton's shade of red in his gunbarrel.
MUSIC
It packs a punch since the game used the 007 theme sparingly so it hits so much harder. It's pulling a page from Casino Royale's ending. I also like that it's very traditional sounding. Not experimental like Goldeneye's or License To Kill music choice. Bond has earned is 007 status and the music should reflect the Bond theme in its purist form.
LIGHTING AND SOUND
The light should shine from the left to right and it does here. The lighting is also not overblown like in Skyfall's. Skyfall's Gunbarrel to me, felt nearly blinding with the light being so harsh. Gibson's final frame with just a bit of the white shining against the barrel is great too.
The gunshot sound is good enough. I can't put my finger on it but it sounds a bit off. It doesn't deliver the punch. However, the slight eco they put in it helps a lot.
FADAWAY/ENDING
Since it's packed at the end, the barrel doesn't shake and open up on scenery. Although at the every start the dots do open up on the helicopter. However, it does fade to black and plays the signature cords as the words "James Bond Will Return" pops up. Those words usually plays in the credits anyways so it's nice to see it here.
The final shadows that Bond's legs cast in the final pose is interesting to look at.
I believe this pen was only given out to Employees and staff. Even a google search yields no-very little results. A family member works at Disney and gave this to me years ago, around the time New Fantasy land opened.
It's also NOT a dropshipped pen because the tip mimics the tip of the Disney castle. It also provides a nice grip.
Got this fish pen almost a decade ago at an old thrift store. The texture feels really nice and grippy as the eye really does capture a fish's eye.
SPOILERS
When Damien was revealed to be a psychopath, I didn't think much of him touching his father's tie instantly made a weird way. But I had a thought after logging off.
This is for sure a reference to Silva touching bond in the weird way in Skyfall right? I don't feel like I'm stretching here but both Damien and Silva are villains, they are psychopaths, and the way Damien slowly messes with the tie is slow and a weird. Just like Silva's movements.
Or maybe I'm such a hardcore fan that I'm trying to find a reference where it isn't one. But I strongly believe that it's an intentionally reference. What do you guys think?
At least her rake is actually touching the ground...
When I first played this, I genuinely said outloud, "Mads Mikkelsen?". I think it's the hair and his scowl. He has that same look Le Chiffre does.
I saw this glitch the other day lol. This guy was stuck in an infinite loop of shooting an enemy that I shot with a dart. Is this glitch rare lol?
Hey everyone so I'm a MOC builder and I want to create my first pirate ship MOC. I can source the haul pieces pretty easily but the I have questions about the sails. As you can see, the Jackdaw's sails from AC Black Flag, are unique and it's hard to find a custom set for them.
I'm it sure that type of fabric to buy for the sails as the videos I've seen are specific. I looked into custom sails and they are like $50 for a set. A set that doesn't fit the Jackdaw.
What specific fabric should I buy. Links appreciated. I'm also looking at the cheapest cost possible. This is going to be my first Pirate ship MOC and the sails are my biggest OP.
Hey everyone so I don't know much about it watches but I know how to change batteries and stuff. However, I found this Mepa vintage watch while I was cleaning and decided to open it up.
There doesn't seem to be an obvious battery placement and I assume I have to do further disassembly? If so, does anyone know how I can change the battery? I tried going on google and found a few images of similar watches from Mepa but no info on how to change the battery.
Also, it seems to also be missing the glass square. Idk if that will affect if it still works or it but another watch from this collection works fine with a new battery so I would assume this one would too. It's been locked away in a box for quite some time.
Also if anyone can find the exact model that would also be helpful since that might lead to an instruction manual or something.
My very first thought when I saw her for the first time is this book. She feels and looks like a monster that belongs in this universe.
You know, I've only ever broke like 10 brown/reddish brown pieces in total but this time it really annoyed me because this piece has been on for like 5 years and I barley touched it and it crumbled.
