The new federal dental insurance plan will be phased in gradually over 2024, with the first claims likely to be processed in May, government officials said ahead of a formal announcement scheduled for Monday morning.
Very happy it passed but 90k limit on household income seems rather low. I guess this is a much broader discussion but shouldnt it be based on average household income rather than cumulative since that scales with number of people where as a hard 90k number doesnt.
One month after finance ministers met to discuss the Alberta government's intent to pull out of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) public opinion polling by the Angus Reid Institute suggests there's little desire among Albertans or the rest of Canada to see Alberta leave the plan.
Wasnt the whole thing supposed to be a big update to 2022 title? I remember reading there was going to be no new title for this year and instead MW2 would get a big update.
I bet they saw how dumb people are who are willing to buy a premium version of a battlepass every season on top of all the crazy skins they push out. So, instead we get a “new” title which literally plays and feels like a DLC for MW2 which it was meant to be.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said his government is "not looking to escalate" a diplomatic row with New Delhi, but declined to say whether Canada would match India's decision to ask for the removal 41 Canadian diplomats.
spoilerI extracted all ingredients in between picking up required ingredients from Arcane Tower and then giving them to Omeluum in the Myconid Colony. From what I remember, it locked me out and I had to reload.
There is a bug where he gets stuck either in blighted village or in your camp behind target dummies near blighted village. Then the summon spell is greyed out. To fix it I had to go back to blighted village and then I could cast the spell.

Coming from bg3, I had the opposite opinion. BG3 loading screens take a while but it doesnt load very much unless your loading saves a lot. With Starfield you get hit with a small loading screen constantly like when transitioning in/out of ships, buildings, planets, etc.
spoilerYou can prevent killing her as the dark urge. When long rest triggers her arriving to your camp, you can load the game, go to her spot in the Grove and knock her out (dont kill her). Then when you long rest, instead of her showing up at the camp, it will be a random Dragonborn. She will then show up at the camp party later.

Fans have taken to the likes of X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok to question NetherRealm's decision to market Mortal Kombat 1 as a $70 Switch release. It has been called "robbery" and "disrespectful" to users.
As Call of Duty nears its 20th anniversary, veteran fans could have over 100 potential answers to that question, and that's not including the 16 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer maps that debuted in 2009 - one of the greatest Day One Multiplayer offerings of all time.

So, the community was begging them to remake some of the maps for MW2 (2022) as some of these were already in the game in bigger game modes. The hold out was they were going to shove all of them into next entry instead.
After 5 years in development and heavily pushing Unreal Engine 5 technologies, Immortals of Aveum was met with a whopping 751 player peak. For reference, Forspoken was considered a flop but still had over 12,000 players peak total. This may be the biggest flop of the year.
What are you referring to? They released enhanced/definitive editions for their previous games without any extra charge. Their games have gone on sale regularly.
You can always for a sale. The game (imo) is absolutely worth the price tag. I mean COD comes out every year and now includes a premium battle pass on top of the regular battle pass, not to mention the $20 skins sold separately.
If you like these types of CRPGs, this one is hard to beat.
As the other comment mentioned, I’m saying it’s getting harder and harder to find well designed games that dont include a plethora of microtransactions. So, yes, BG3 is full priced AAA game but you get a complete game unlike many games coming out (see RedFall, Gollum, and Forspoken to just name a few).
