I really hope that Embracer ends up doing something actually worthwhile with Middle-earth. Games like Shadow of Mordor (which I regretfully haven't played yet) seem to be well-received, but that upcoming Gollum stealth game is looking sketchy at best. That said, one can imagine a world in which a talented and well-organized game dev studio produced a well-made narrative-led adventure game that was a true and faithful adaptation of stuff like core stories from the Elder Days - how cool would it be to play as characters like Beren, Luthien, Turin, and others as you carry them through their stories? Or delve deeper into more obscure bits of Middle-earth like the long conflict between Numenor and Far Harad, or the wars of Arnor and Angmar in the north? There's so much potential for what they could do. Whatever it is though, I strongly hope it's an actually faithful and respectful recreation of Tolkien's writings, not the misbegotten abomination Amazon's The Rings of Power is shaping up to be.
I believe if they let Coffeestain make those games, oh boy i would love seeing Goat Simulator LoTR edition! Jokes aside, I do believe it is in good hands tbh
--- Well, "Embracer" is THQ Nordic / Nordic Games. And so far their track record has been kinda good especially when it comes to re-publishing abandonware-titles. Just really hoping they'll get a bit better stranglehold over "Koch Media / Deep Silver" so we could get "Dead Island Epidemic" back and revive other Deep Silver-butchered tattles. ---
@@PaveMentman I follow a few other channels that covers pop culture and they are not as happy with Embracer taking over the IP as the gamer side of the coin. They are mostly upset because they think Embracer will open up a themepark dedicated to LoTR, which is also something they did get with the deal. I doubt they will do such a thing in a near future or ever tbh. Still believe Embracer is one of the silent good ones, given their track record so far
--- @@MAup Aye, it is true a load of good folks have become corrupted as the time has passed. But so far, I personally haven't seen or otherwise felt "bad vibes" or something in relation with it comes to Embracer / Nordic Games. And I am saying this with my own +30-years of experience starting first as one of their customer in their brick & mortar-store in Turku Finland. And co-working with their importing-business when I was helping around in a store called "Game Paradise" that was run by one of the former Nordic Games (of the very same store) employees in Turku ( his store was smaller and was located in several different locations near the city market-square over the decade he was running it until he eventually full-on dedicated his time to his "realization of assets"-business, E.G. re-distributing inventories of business that had gone out of business ). Are they going to exists long enough to turn into a villain eventually? Well, maybe. But perhaps they don't turn into a wicket type of villain like majority of mega-businesses. ---

He laughed at the young Gandalf idea. But I would not mind seeing some stuff he was up to before all that. I assume there were many more wizards in the past?
If you look it up in LOTR lore wizards are super specific and there's 5 (gandalf, saruman, radagast, and the two blue wizards). Anyways, blue wizards series would be hype as they went to the east and that's not something Tolkien explored a lot so you could go crazy and not technically step on the already established lore.
I have a Pixel 4 that is also on the Fi network. I am extremely lucky I guess, because i've had no issues. Especially either of these. And I know how much google and screw simple things up.
Why did they name themselves Embracer Group? Was Evil Inc. too subtle? Like seriously, that's what I would expect a supervillain's money laundering scheme to be called.

And so far their track record has been kinda good especially when it comes to re-publishing abandonware-titles.
Just really hoping they'll get a bit better stranglehold over "Koch Media / Deep Silver" so we could get "Dead Island Epidemic" back and revive other Deep Silver-butchered tattles.

@@PaveMentman I follow a few other channels that covers pop culture and they are not as happy with Embracer taking over the IP as the gamer side of the coin. They are mostly upset because they think Embracer will open up a themepark dedicated to LoTR, which is also something they did get with the deal. I doubt they will do such a thing in a near future or ever tbh. Still believe Embracer is one of the silent good ones, given their track record so far

Aye, it is true a load of good folks have become corrupted as the time has passed.
But so far, I personally haven't seen or otherwise felt "bad vibes" or something in relation with it comes to Embracer / Nordic Games.
And I am saying this with my own +30-years of experience starting first as one of their customer in their brick & mortar-store in Turku Finland.
And co-working with their importing-business when I was helping around in a store called "Game Paradise" that was run by one of the former Nordic Games (of the very same store) employees in Turku
( his store was smaller and was located in several different locations near the city market-square over the decade he was running it until he eventually full-on dedicated his time to his "realization of assets"-business,
E.G. re-distributing inventories of business that had gone out of business ).
Are they going to exists long enough to turn into a villain eventually?
Well, maybe.
But perhaps they don't turn into a wicket type of villain like majority of mega-businesses.

I never miss a TechLinked. Not because of the info source but the hosts and writers are really funny. It's basically a humor channel with tech news as the material. Also, more Riley videos at LTT please!
The first time I have something to say about the sponsor: Filmora is like an easier to use After Effects. I recommend it. Hell of a lot cheaper too
After Effects is so intuitive that you could probably train a chimp to use it effectively.
@@_Will___ After Effects is good but I wouldn't call it intuitive. Adobe software is a mess.
Well, does it run on Linux? You know, unlike After Effects. That would be something Filmora has over it then.
I can't access the wallpaper & style settings since updating to 13 on my pixel 6 pro :(
I had a wonderful pixel 4, then great pixel 4xl, and now I'm suffering with Pixel 6. My god do I hate the horrible reception and glitches. But design is so cool that I can't make myself swap it for a regular looking one X_x
By 'design' you mean fashion. Design used to mean engineering but now you just like the fact your phone has pink flowers on it. Gay.
I literally just edited a full commercial from Filmora 11 today... Awesome to see my "small" editing software is sponsoring channels
Vendors locking in people to use specific firmware has always been a great idea!
0:13 and that is why I never instantly update to the newest version of any OS.
Luke is the kinda guy to bleep out a sneeze because he’s not sure if that sound is copyrighted. BOOOO WAN SHOW, YAYYY TECHLINKED!
He laughed at the young Gandalf idea. But I would not mind seeing some stuff he was up to before all that. I assume there were many more wizards in the past?
Lots. But all the male wizards were wimps who bowed to their female superiors.
Oh sorry did I forget to put a spoiler tag?
If you look it up in LOTR lore wizards are super specific and there's 5 (gandalf, saruman, radagast, and the two blue wizards). Anyways, blue wizards series would be hype as they went to the east and that's not something Tolkien explored a lot so you could go crazy and not technically step on the already established lore.
Not sure if you are joking or not...
Riley is basically Mr Peanutbutter from BoJack Horseman.
This happens all the time! When I upgraded my phone they screwed up the backlight for several models and it took them a year and a half to fix it >:(
It's nice to see that the most enjoyable ad ever made is not forgotten.
I have a Pixel 4 that is also on the Fi network. I am extremely lucky I guess, because i've had no issues. Especially either of these. And I know how much google and screw simple things up.
That's what you get for making 80% of your workforce as contractors. You deserve it Google.
Why did they name themselves Embracer Group? Was Evil Inc. too subtle? Like seriously, that's what I would expect a supervillain's money laundering scheme to be called.
This global water shortages is not only affecting obvious food production, but almost all manufacturing. Every individual part of an assembly uses water for various functions. Kinda scarey.
Great, they're sponsoring bundle ware now. I personally would only do sponsors for actually good programs, not that Filmora isn't (I imagine) but also, not every program is that good.
My take on biometric scanners is still that it's easier (for E.G. US Police) to hold up the phone to your face or manipulate your body to unlock it, than for anyone to make you say your password.
2:41 Hyped for the metaverse inside the metaverse...
Gandalf's origin story is basically a choir boy who suddenly was sent on a coming of age mission of using soft power to influence dumber, lower forms of life to do stuff.
How can you trademark a shape?
Apple: I did one better. I trademarked rounded corners.
*blue lobster jumpscare*
40c is 104f try working in Missouri
Imagine trying out literally anything on launch day with no means to go back.
Your tech roasts are wonderful
Yeah a LOTR Gandalf origin story, now featuring Slim Shady Mordor.
Also broken on most newer Android is not being able to connect (on most devices) to hidden WiFi (WLAN )!!!
As a VR enthusiast I was rolling my eyes when people went after Horizons. But, in the end the results were worth it.
the fuck you mean it still looks garbage
As if mocking Suckerberg for "showing off" with what looks like a Mii posed in front of a stock untextured model of the Eiffel Tower wasn't justified from the getgo.
@@KiraSlith That's all good. It was the usual hyperbole and extrapolation that I find tiresome.
I'm getting the idea Google breaks everything they touch. Products to whole business units.
I won't lie, that lore drop on the Silmarillion took me by surprise 🤣
Why hasn't Google fixed the notification shade quick toggles? Why is it such a chore to switch WiFi on and off? Why am I permitted fewer quick toggles at any one time?
"Can robots feel electric sheep?" .............................huh? lol
3:36 yes, you are saying it right
Ooo what’s the drama behind Lenovo? Linus using his reach to air dirty laundry? Niiiice
I have a Pixel 6 and it doesn't even know there's an update.
5:34 Maybe I'm showing my age, but outside of Gearbox and Asmodee, I don't think I recognize ANY of these companies....
I'm here for the saucy Tolkien vagueing at the end
Riley = best host.
Riley= besty!
"avatars having legs" killed me hahaha
2:07 "Fortninety markburger"
The last bit gave me tingles as a Tolkien fan
google doesn't believe in quality assurance and I'm kind of sick of it
Iluvatar being referenced just made TechLinked a top 3 RUclips channel
Lenovo don't even use that logo on their computers. Just om their paperwork. The logo they use on the Legion PC's is just an upside down Mercedes symbol.
as we move into the future the people who decide what media to produce or what technology to create are far from the most experienced and qualified, but rather those with the most money.
Gandalfs origin was already described by the silmarillion how needs 2h of soap opera to end up with the same end
0:45
😂, Me who's still on 12 on a pixel 6,
Thanos: *I am Inevitable*
I thought Amazon had exclusive rights and not just a license
The LOTR/Silmarillion reference was too good..
I remember when pixel ui was the best stock android experience
I can't wait to join the ranks of the Adeptus Mechanicus when I can replace my weak and feeble flesh with steel and circuitry. *angry machine noises*
Looks like the Wii's main menu?! That's too harsh
The Wii was way cooler than that
Faceprint sensor: just mash your face into the phone
Sense my face, damnit! **mash**
"those last 4 hours are way harder than the previous 8"
They also broke their search engines efficiency. Its now based on ad revenue.
Android 12 also ruined tap to wake, lift to wake, etc
I also can't listen to WhatsApp voice notes without the screen switching off, same with phone calls
I have a pixel 3
I'm afraid there exists no one who could capture and expand on the Ainulindale and Valaquenta. As I get older I'm getting more on the side of leaving that to the imagination.
Waiting for the WAN Show in regards to the button....
