  • There’s gotta be a mod for that, right?

    Up until whatever came after Black Flag I was a die hard AC fan. Midnight releases and everything. And I’ll admit, the modern day sections are bad and jarring and completely unnecessary. At some point you’re a game developer wandering around an office and it’s obvious they had no idea what to do with those sections, because at that point the modern day story had been told. There was a brief cameo from some of the people you would remember from earlier games but it never got to the level of intrigue from 1-3.

    Though an assassin’s creed game set in like modern day Manhattan could be fun. Watchdogs got kinda close to that before going completely off the rails.













  • It sounds unbelievable because it’s just simply wrong.

    Larger farms are more efficient. Each cow will always produce the same amount of manure, where you put the fence between them doesn’t really matter. If there’s 2 million cows in the state you get 2 million cows worth of manure to deal with, you can’t gerrymander that away.

    Economies of scale apply to farms, but the waste they produce isn’t going to change much.

    There are a lot of valid reasons to prefer small farms to large ones. The animals generally get better treatment on small farms, you get a better quality product from smaller farms. But the reality is the average age of farmers in this country is approaching retirement. Meaning a fair number of farmers are over that age. We don’t have the labor in this country to manage a lot of small farms, and that’s before we forcibly deported the people doing 90% of the labor.
