“Does anything in nature despair except man? An animal with a foot caught in a trap does not seem to despair. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.”Ģ6. ![]() This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Love the world as your own self then you can truly care for all things.Ģ5. Ask questions from you heart and you will be answered from the heart.Ģ4. They are not dead who live in the hearts they leave behind.Ģ0. ― Chief Luther Standing Bear from the Lakota Siouxġ9. They know that man’s heart, away from nature, becomes hard they knew that lack of respect for growing, living things soon led to a lack of respect for humans too. Poverty is a noose that strangles humility and breeds disrespect for God and man.ġ8. Before eating, always take time to thank the food.ġ7. It will free your mind of sorrowful thoughts.ġ6. It is easy to be brave from a distance.ġ3. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies in yourself.ġ2. You can’t wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.ġ1. We will be known forever by the tracks we leave.ġ0. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.ĩ. When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. “It is better to have less thunder in the mouth and more lightning in the hand.”Ĩ. “One’s true nature is revealed in time of difficulty.”ħ. Our obligation to survive is owed not just to ourselves but also to that Cosmos, ancient and vast, from which we spring.”Ħ. Our loyalties are to the species and the planet. “We have begun to contemplate our origins: starstuff pondering the stars organized assemblages of ten billion billion billion atoms considering the evolution of atoms tracing the long journey by which, here at least, consciousness arose. “The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.”ĥ. “We still do not know one-thousandth of one percent of what nature has revealed to us.”Ĥ. Immersed in the wonder of the Tao, you can deal with whatever life brings you, and when death comes, you are ready.”ģ. ![]() When you realize where you come from, you naturally become tolerant, disinterested, amused, kindhearted as a grandmother, dignified as a king.

If we never wonder, knowledge will never find us.”Ģ. “If we wonder often, the gift of knowledge will come. Here are some extraordinary nature quotes and ecology-oriented proverbs that are perfect for contemplation. One of the best ways I’ve found for shifting thinking paradigms is spending time unplugged and deeply immersed in the wilderness for long periods of time… another way is simply contemplating profound wisdom about our place in this magical and mysterious world. We have the power to change our story and live a new story of a living Earth, a story that demands we learn again to live responsibly and ethically so there is a livable world for our future generations. When the stories being told by our culture aren’t making much sense anymore, we must all become storytellers. How we choose to tell those stories determines our collective experience of the world. We are storytelling animals and our ability to communicate through oral storytelling and later written languages is something special that makes us unique in nature. Since the beginning of time, all societies have had proverbs that disseminated important ecological wisdom and gave human beings insight into who we are, why we are alive and where we come from. Judging by the state of the “environment” today and the growing mental health crisis of meaning and identity that is slowly tearing apart the most “developed” modern societies, the hyper-rationalism that grew out of Cartesian dualism is not only insane but also self-destructive on an unthinkable scale. What sounds more insane? That we are storytelling animals immersed in a web of relationships with other sentient beings, or that we are just detached observers finding ourselves stuck living in a meaningless and mechanical Universe. Yet, this was considered common sense for most of human history up until the late 18th century in Europe. ![]() To both the hyper-rationalist intellectual who lives in their head and the anti-intellectual modern fundamentalist who takes ancient mythologies literally, the idea that we are part of our environment is considered insane.

![]() Military rankings work in a progression-based fashion players must complete missions and military operations to advance in rank. Wanzer customization in Online works differently from other Front Mission titles in that the parts, auxiliary backpacks, and weapons the player can access is entirely dependent on their military ranking. ![]() Players can also defect to the other side if their combat proficiency is at a certain level. Defecting players are demoted by one military rank and lose all of their items, except those that are equipped on their pilot and wanzer. In here, they can customize their wanzers, purchase battle gear for their pilots, form groups with other players, or fight other players in the Arena to earn extra money and parts. When a player is not currently involved in a mission or military operation, they are stationed at military bases and supply camps on Huffman Island. There are many types of missions, ranging from simple destruction requests to more complex reconnaissance ones. players can take a mission to defend the base if it was not captured. players can take a mission to recapture it. Battle zones affect the type of missions that a player can go through in PvE mode. Players pick a battle zone on Huffman Island and fight on it, with the winning side taking control of the zone. The PvP mode of Online, on the other hand, does not have any story elements. Unlike missions, military operations are one-time only events and cannot be replayed. Furthermore, there are limited-time only operations which are open to all players. These military operations progress the storyline. After the player completes a certain amount of missions, they can participate in military operations, which are a series of missions. The PvE mode of Online is unique in that like the other Front Mission titles, there is a storyline that the player can play through. In PvP mode, players do battle against other players of the game. In PvE mode, players do battle against enemies controlled by AI. There are two modes of play - PvE or PvP. Once a character has been created, the player can then begin playing the game. Next, the player must create a character to play as character creation in Online works similarly to character creation methods found in other MMOs. When a player creates an account, they will be asked to choose a side to fight for - the Oceania Cooperative Union (O.C.U.) or the United States of the New Continent (U.S.N.). As an MMO, players have complete control over how they want to play the game. ![]() Game progression in Online works differently from other Front Mission entries. ![]() The game has built-in support for VoIP, which can be used to communicate with other players. Players in Online can play alone, or in groups of up to 20 players. The player controls a mech known as the Wanderpanzer, or wanzer. Rather than being played out on a grid-based map and using a turn-based structure, battles takes place in real-time on full 3D maps akin to Armored Core. As a massively multiplayer online (MMO) third-person shooter spin-off, the gameplay of Front Mission Online differs from the tactical role-playing game entries of the numbered Front Mission titles. ![]() Once inspired you can try the levelling strategy, or from Vanilla to Warlords you can follow the more detailed Guide linked or via the left menu.Go to the tab underneath for more detail on that expansion.Use the world map in The Plan to quickly find what you are looking for or to find something to be inspired by.May the drops be ever in your favour.Ī Quick Guide to the Guide (Click to view) If you visit The Mad Merchant you need another and some of the Mounts on the BMAH could cost millions each too!īut don't worry about that right now a whole world awaits us after all.

One of these characters will have to be into Leatherworking, you need a couple of cross faction PvP participants, and then you could collect everything in the game. In fact, every class has its own unique Mount(s) to collect there. ![]() You will also want a Druid, Shaman, Warlock or Demon Hunter, Death Knight, Rogue, and Monk for Pets only they have access to via their Class Halls. Note however that at some stage you will want a low level Worgen, Goblin, and Pandaren for unique Pets, and one of each of the Allied Races for unique Mounts only they can obtain. This will come in handy later on as you edge ever closer towards A Horde of Hoofbeats This choice will give you access to 22 "extra" mounts compared to say a Blacksmithing / Mining Blood Elf Warrior, and the highest number (12) on a single character.

Outside of the introductory and very necessary tutorial Planet Coaster: Console Edition has three main modes, Career, Challenge and Sandbox. Sure I was still playing the game at a basic level, especially when compared to some of the more experienced players, but finally I felt like I could get somewhere with this game and when that happened my theme park started to take shape and I began to have some genuine fun. Then a good week or so later after starting a campaign almost everything clicked and when that happened I started to see Planet Coaster in a different way. So I stuck with Planet Coaster, I even went back into the tutorial to refresh my memory when I had been away from the game for a few days. But I couldn’t leave Planet Coaster at that, I couldn’t be someone that was beaten by the necessary complexity of this game which could have ultimately affected my review in a negative way. After all I was more accustomed to the more streamlined Jurassic World: Evolution. It got to the point that I nearly gave up as there was so much to process. However even when I had finished the tutorial I was still feeling overwhelmed as there was so much to learn. The tutorial as you might expect teaches you all the basics, but not everything as you’ll still be picking up new mechanics and tricks when you start your proper campaigns. Upon starting Planet Coaster you are advised to play the tutorial and it’s quite an in-depth one as it probably took me about an hour to finish, but I’m glad that I did instead of jumping blindly into the game. So with this in mind when I first started to play Planet Coaster: Console Edition I was very overwhelmed to the point that I thought I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the game. However as I quickly found out, there is much more to Planet Coaster: Console Edition to that of Jurassic World: Evolution.ĭon’t get me wrong Jurassic World: Evolution is a fantastic game (as reflected in my review), but it’s far more streamlined compared to Planet Coaster, which is probably why Jurassic World: Evolution was able to make such a seamless transition to the Nintendo Switch. Despite having a slight difference in genre, to the untrained eye it would be easy to mistake both games to be of the same genre and in the most part that can be considered the case. Jurassic World is labelled as a “ business simulation” whereas Planet Coaster is known as a “ construction and management simulation”. It’s also worth noting that while this doesn’t carry the Rollercoaster Tycoon name, Planet Coaster is very much considered to be the spiritual successor of the classic theme park simulator. However it wouldn’t be until 2018 when I experienced a game from the team this time with another simulation game, Jurassic World: Evolution. Nonetheless even though this version of Rollercoaster Tycoon could be considered a very basic version of the game, it was still a lot of fun, despite me running every theme park into bankruptcy.įrontier Developments would venture into a number of games over the years both in and outside of the simulation genre. This was a very different game to what was on the PC, because the OG Xbox was way behind PC capabilities during that time. My first experience with the studio was during their very early years and that was with the very first Rollercoaster Tycoon console port which was released for the original Xbox back in 2003. I’ve only really had a brief experience with Frontier Developments, at least up until recently. Secondly it’s of the construction and management simulation genre and it’s developed by Frontier Developments. So here we are four years after it originally released for PC, but has it been worth the wait? In short, yes and I’ll tell you why.įirst of all what is Planet Coaster? Well firstly there are some subtle changes made to this version of the game for it to be accommodated on console, hence why it’s called Planet Coaster: Console Edition. Though to be fair when this game initially released for PC back in 2016 I think most of us probably thought it would never release on console. Planet Coaster is a game that has been a long time coming on console. ![]() For example, if I scroll through Facebook and find funny and interesting articles regularly, I would want to keep doing it because my behavior is reinforced by entertainment value. The same applies to us – not just physically, but mentally too. This way, the rats were physically conditioned to react to positive or negative stimulus. If the lever was touched, the box would either dispense food or cut off an electric current which was being generated. ![]() Back then, he conducted experiments on animals that he kept in a “Skinner Box,” as shown here: Not surprisingly, Skinner found that we are more likely to do an action if whatever follows it is good – and vice versa. Skinner in the 1950s.Īs the term suggests, operant conditioning is the process by which we are conditioned to do an action more or less often, depending on whether the action is followed by something good or bad. ![]() This happens due to operant conditioning, a term coined by psychologist B.F. The idea to put work off first enters our minds when we are faced with tasks that we know to be unpleasant by experience. If we want to wrestle back control from the monkey, we’ll have to do a lot more–starting with understanding why we procrastinate. Melville’s monkey was in another room–he had to physically get up and move if he wanted to be distracted, so chaining himself to his desk worked. To learn how to wrestle back control from the monkey, we first have to understand why we procrastinate. Stanford sociologist Clifford Nass says that we are “suckers for irrelevancy.”Įach time we get distracted, we mess up our flow – defined as an “optimal state of consciousness where we feel our best and perform our best.” Not being in the flow is naturally very, very bad for doing actual productive work.Īre we, chronic procrastinators (my hand is raised), doomed to suffer a lifetime of unproductivity? As I’ve found out through lots of distracted reading and experimentation, there’s hope yet. And unlike Melville, we live in an age of perpetual distractions which are easily accessible at the swipe of a finger. Sitting at our desks mindlessly scrolling through Facebook, though, it’s hard to imagine that we could ever overcome the Instant Gratification Monkey, and get to work on the ever-increasing mounds of assignments and projects ahead of us.Įven if we did chain ourselves to our desks and get started, distractions continually attempt to try and lure us away. Moby Dick went on to become one of the greatest literary works of all time. That particular story turned out pretty well. Like many famous creative people who would come after him, he struggled against mankind’s greatest nemesis – procrastination – and even had to resort to chaining himself to his desk to be productive. Check out his latest articles over at the Piktochart blog.īack in the 1800s, American author Herman Melville was facing a problem while writing his to-be masterpiece, Moby Dick.

While it’s not yet known how much of this system will be used on the XC30, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if a scaled-down version would be offered. It works in concert with 16 radar sensors, eight ultrasonics and five cameras to keep the car’s occupants safe. While Volvo hasn’t revealed what they are, they may follow that of the forthcoming EX90, which will feature lidar that can see as far as 800 feet down the road to warn of any impending emergency, or about 7.5 seconds when driving at 60 mph. Volvo is hinting that its EX30 will have a host of safety features. Volvo has also stated it’s releasing an EX90 flagship SUV for 2024, part of the company’s plan to eliminate internal combustion technology - including plug-in hybrids - by 2030. And so it seems unlikely to expect to see a flood of XC30s, although Volvo’s name may mean more to American consumers than new kid on the block Polestar.īut the EX30 may not be the only pure EV in the Volvo line-up come 2024. But, unlike the XC40 that’s offered as a hybrid, the XC30 will be offered solely as a battery-electric crossover - or so it’s implied by Volvo PR.Īnd while the XC30’s name suggests that this affordable premium battery-electric vehicle could sell boatloads, keep in mind that its corporate cousin, the battery-electric Polestar 2, sold only 718 copies last year. But both the XC40 and C40 come in Recharge trim, Volvo’s name for battery-electric rechargeable vehicles, so the new model should help fortify Volvo’s growing EV portfolio. Only the XC40’s fastback cousin, the C40 at 3,780 units, is less popular. Genesis? The GV70.īut that’s not the case for Volvo, where the XC40 comes in third at 18,558 units behind the second place XC90 at 34,101 units and the first place XC60 at 36,181 units. Lincoln’s most popular ride? The Corsair. After all, the reality is that while there are many automakers competing in the premium market, it’s the lower-end luxury models that often prove most popular. |
