Day 274 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MyNameIsAtticus
Today’s game is AC Shadows. I got started on the the last 2 targets of Act 2 today. It took me to the eastern region of the game, which is covered in this pretty forests with lanterns.
It was also home to quite a few shrines, which are my favorite locations in this game because it blends the nature and the architecture together really well. Of course, this shrine was the same size as all the others. You want to know what shrine wasn’t the same size as all the others?
This one, which was massive and sprawling. It was about the size of a small town in the game. It had a massive pond that covered the courtyard and this pretty walk-through section that divided up the courtyard. I thought it was going to be leading up to a Stealth Section, but unfortunately it didn’t. Though, i have some suspicions it will be used for the assassination event with the target.
The mission took me further into the woods to recover a scroll that was stolen by a clan that wanted the scroll to keep from peace being made. The wind was blowing really hard around this time, and it was a really cool sight to see. The screenshot cannot do it justice, but this game has some of my favorite wind physics i’ve ever seen. Everything seems to interact with it. The Ocean, Hair, Clothes. It’s like how Red Dead 2 had amazing horses. This game has amazing wind. And somehow it doesn’t lag my mid tier PC to hell and back.
The mission took me to this tomb with a bit of water surrounding it. The thieves were just outside. They out leveled me though so i had to get a bit creative with how i fought them.
My current loadout was built for double assassinations. In this game if you want to do double assassinations you need a Tanto in one of your weapon slots. It’s honestly an interesting idea because it means you can trade Combat for Stealth, or vice versa.
Using the double assassination i snuck up behind these guards who’d patrol and then join up. I took them out, and the third guy saw me. I tossed a smoke bomb and led him on a goose chase through the woods, and then circled back to grab the scroll and then booked it back to turn it in to finish the mission.
After that, i called it quits for tonight because i just wasn’t feeling up for anymore after 3 missions. I think the game has a pacing issue with Act 2. A few of these targets i feel really didn’t need to be here or were trimmed to meet deadlines, which, i mean, these things happen in games. It does hurt the experience a bit though.

Kilmar Ábrego García: Deported Salvadoran will never live back in US, says White House
submitted by https://sh.itjust.works/u/HellsBelle
The White House has dug in on its refusal to return a man who US officials have acknowledged was wrongly deported last month from Maryland to an El Salvador mega-prison.
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt doubled down on accusations that Salvadoran national Kilmar Ábrego García was a member of the MS-13 gang, which his lawyer denies.
Leavitt also accused the 29-year-old of domestic violence, citing records showing his US citizen wife once filed a protective order against him.
A Maryland judge has ordered President Donald Trump’s administration to bring Mr Ábrego García back to the US. But El Salvador President Nayib Bukele said on a visit to the White House this week that he did not “have the power” to return him.

Memo shows U.S. can send migrants without criminal records to Guantanamo, despite Trump's promise to hold "the worst" there
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MicroWave
Summary
A government memo obtained by CBS News shows the Trump administration created broad rules outlining which migrants can be held at Guantanamo Bay, allowing officials to send non-criminal detainees there despite a vow to hold “the worst” offenders.
The memo does not mention any criminality assessment and defines a “nexus” to crime broadly, including paying a smuggler.
Theresa Cardinal Brown, a former U.S. immigration official during the administrations of Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, said the rules “apply very broadly to any immigrant who came to the U.S. via the U.S.-Mexico border” and do not include “any individualized assessment.”
White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller said, “Gitmo is open.”

US Army engineers decide to fast-track Great Lakes tunnel permits under Trump energy emergency order
submitted by https://sh.itjust.works/u/HellsBelle
The move comes after President Donald Trump issued an executive order in January declaring that the U.S. has become too dependent on foreign energy sources. The order mandates that federal agencies identify energy infrastructure projects for expedited emergency permitting from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The corps designated the tunnel project on Line 5 as an emergency under the order late Tuesday. The corps had initially planned to make a permitting decision early next year. Corps officials were vague during a conference call with reporters Wednesday morning about how quickly the process may move forward.
