general-chat

[inner arrow]

Listened to some darktide music too. Jesper Kyd is on top of his game with that one

[fluid creek]

work

so. you know how that goes already

[flint lily]

spent the morning in the Colorado Springs mountains with my team, very cold though

[tired hare]

I challenged Dark to a 1v1 but it seems like there isn’t a custom match option anymore

[inner arrow]

MW2 has private matches if you mean that

[abstract pulsar]

Ordered pizza and Archimedes is jumping on the counter. I'd say it's fine

[tired hare]

Hopefully it is a good day at work

[cinder veldt]

Warzone never had private matches afaik, but as doom said mw2 does

[tired hare]

Oh so he’s just scared and made up an excuse?!

[flint lily]

15 degree weather out here

[tired hare]

I suck at cod

[flint lily]

looked like Santa Claus

[trail harness]

well I kinda feel like playing Earth Defense Force

[inner arrow]

Most likely. I don’t remember how good he was in Dying Light. Maybe he doesn’t like fps games

[lyric jetty]

it's a big button too

[tired hare]

I played persona 2 weeks ago

[inner arrow]

EDF EDF EDF lol. That chant never gets old

[tired hare]

@warped pendant you’ve been exposed m8

[inner arrow]

Inbefore he will claim he only has WZ2. Yet I saw him play before in Mw2 too

[flint lily]

what was that map in battlefield 3 where you'd jump off of a huge peak before getting in

[cinder veldt]

Bis we might never be able to 1v1 that’s for sure

[flint lily]

Donovan or something?

[tired hare]

Oh?

[pine vessel]

Isn't EDF a thing in Red Faction too?

[warped pendant]

oh no not again.

[inner arrow]

Wasn’t before getting in. It was after the first push.

[cinder veldt]

I play warzone

[pine vessel]

I swear I remember Earth Defense Force in Red Faction

[tired hare]

Yeah that’s going to be a problem

[inner arrow]

Honestly? No idea about edf in red faction. I only remember the destruction lol

[tired hare]

Rip mixer

[cinder veldt]

If I get mw2 tho

[tired hare]

It seems like everyone’s making up excuses….

[pine vessel]

I loved RF: Armageddon and the open world one where you could tear everything apart (forgot the name)

[inner arrow]

I could 1v1 but I am bad so I spare myself the embarrassment

[cinder veldt]

Mine is valid

[half hazel]

im thinking of getting a steam deck ngl

[mellow roost]

Did you unlock Mr. Toots?

[half hazel]

im traveling in a few months so i might buy one to take with me

[pine vessel]

The gassy unicorn?

[inner arrow]

Thinking of getting one too. I hate this thought tho. Like… I wanna save and not spend money again

[tired hare]

I know, I’m just kidding

[inner arrow]

I do like playing MW2, WZ or DMZ with others tho

[mellow roost]

Yes. 😂

[pine vessel]

Yh, I completed the game a couple of times I think

[inner arrow]

1vs1 is always so nerve wrecking

[pine vessel]

I think I completed it normally and then on New Game+

[half hazel]

i love having money
but spending it is...

[mellow roost]

Mr. Toots is one of those things that just desperately needs to be in more games. Really goofy weapons that are just meant for a laugh.

The foam finger that's in every Dead Space, for example.

[pine vessel]

Saints Row and Dead Rising have some very sus and goofy weapons lol

[mellow roost]

For people who don't know, if you beat the Dead Space games on the hardest difficulty, you get a foam finger.

Isaac just says "Bang! Bang! Bang! Pew pew pew!" when you shoot it, and it one-shots almost everything.

[inner arrow]

Just Cause 2 has a water bubble weapon that does zero dmg but alarms enemies nearby. Top that

[pine vessel]

Battlefield V also had the finger gun I think, or was it BF1?

[half hazel]

bf5

[pine vessel]

Just Cause 3 has a weapon that turns people into cows lol

Bipedal cows as well lol

[inner arrow]

Duke Nukem has a weapon that makes the enemies smaller so you can stomp on them

Turok 2 has a brainseeking drill weapon

[inner arrow]

That weapon is just gnarly. Seeks the brain of the enemy and then drills itself into the head and then explodes

[mellow roost]

10/10

[inner arrow]

Borderlands 2 has a weapon that makes the worst sound when shooting. It drives someone insane

[merry palm]

Which one? Lol

[mellow roost]

I know which one you're thinking of, but I can't remember the name.

[pine vessel]

Saints Row definitely has some of the best weapons tho, they have the dubstep gun and a couple of really sus weapons lmao

[inner arrow]

https://youtu.be/nVxbnvqANes

[mellow roost]

It's the one that talks, and it's like REEELOAADINGGG! and stuff. Just genuinely an annoying gun. I'm just glad it isn't any good.

[merry palm]

Oh that one

Yeah that one was funny for about 5 minutes 😅

[pine vessel]

Reminds me of the Cyberpunk talking gun

[tired hare]

Skippy

[pine vessel]

Yh

[inner arrow]

You got a misstype there. Seconds not minutes haha

[pine vessel]

Also remembered the name of the other Red Faction game, Guerrilla

[tired hare]

He has very sad ending 😭

[merry palm]

I mean.. I played the whole game and remember the gun so

[inner arrow]

Also the dubstep gun from Saints Row 3 was hilarious so was the America gun

[pine vessel]

Guerrilla is fun, just tearing down the map lol

[mellow roost]

The dubstep gun was fantastic.

[tired hare]

I loved saints row IV i just overtop fun

[pine vessel]

I wish Crackdown 3 had lived up to its expections of pure citywide destruction

[merry palm]

Tbh there were more irritating guns than that one 🤣
It's kinda their thing to make ridiculous ones

[inner arrow]

But honestly? My favorite gun is the shark gun from Armed and Dangerous (From the makers of Gaints so of course it’s an amazing game)

[tired hare]

That is impossible even with the next gen consoles 😂

[pine vessel]

Another game with amazing destruction is Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, and knocking down certain buildings would affect your relationship with factions

[sweet cliff]

is the Xbox series s at Costco sold out?

[mellow roost]

Mercenaries needs a reboot, honestly.

[inner arrow]

EA owns it so…

[tired hare]

We need a Simpsons hit and run remaster most importantly

[mellow roost]

I mean, Pandemic was killed by EA so we're probably never seeing another Mercenaries game.

[pine vessel]

I remember blowing up the big skyscraper in Mercenaries 2 at the beginning and realising that was a bad idea after the faction that owns it go very mad at me

[tired hare]

https://tenor.com/view/weve-got-to-have-money-electronic-arts-ea-star-wars-battlefront-ii-ea-games-gif-17227998

Apologies for the ping

[inner arrow]

EA only cares about money. Wish they would care a bit more about their image

[pine vessel]

I want a reboot or remaster of The Saboteur but not sure how that would go down in nowadays society lol

[inner arrow]

Fighting WW2 germans or the… ‘other thing’?

[tired hare]

Well it would easily done but would long

[inner arrow]

Cause I know the other thing was censored in some countries and it worked well enough

[pine vessel]

I think it was more just the nsfw nature of the game and probably the amount of language in it that probably wouldn't go down well nowadays

[tired hare]

Just reduce the amount of mircotransactions and start listening to fans

[long maple]

I own the game dont think I ever got around to playing much of it

[inner arrow]

Well yeah kinda true

[long maple]

same as Wet I got partway through and somehow got stuck on some time-trial and never went back lol

[pine vessel]

Also wasn't the NSFW stuff in The Saboteur locked behind a DLC purchase?

[inner arrow]

I think so but not sure rn

[pine vessel]

Also I'm annoyed that The Saboteur is on EA Play but Mercenaries 2 isn't

[swift thistle]

saw about Volition
i feel bad for them

[mellow roost]

Mercenaries 2 is broken anyway. The only way you can actually get into the game is if you launch another EA game from the same era and accept the TOS of that game first.

[pine vessel]

Oh, bruh

[long maple]

what they part of Gearbox now, its not that bad

[warped pendant]

Wet's definitely got issues

when a developer that's never made an action game..makes an action game

[abstract pulsar]

Didn't even know they were

[long maple]

I dont remember much about it was years ago 2010 or 2012 ?

[swift thistle]

its a fate worse then dissolution

[pine vessel]

Same with The Saboteur on PC, that's got issues, it doesn't play well with my controller, multiple actions binded to one button and no option to change it

[long maple]

but Gearbox own the Risk of Rain series now too

[hexed widget]

You are now among us

[tired hare]

Look at (343) halo infinite example u rarely see anything in the store higher than ten euro
Where (EA) apex legends u rarely see anything for ten euro stuff like that give ea image of being money hungery

[long maple]

Saints Row ran its course didnt do well. suppose its for the best

[warped pendant]

unfortunately with RoR the original developers aren't going to be working on it

[swift thistle]

yeah i heard about that, apparently the devs are independent so they probably wont be working on.

[long maple]

Embracer are going through an Internal review anyway, with so many studios they have that are small staff. wouldnt be surprised if they have to spinoff and make bigger studios from it.

[swift thistle]

I wonder what Gearbox is trying to do

[long maple]

it was in there financial meeting.. they also said 234 Console/PC games by April 2026 ( 25 AAA titles )

Gearbox have like 9 games in development

Tiny Tina did well apparently more spinoff games like that may happen. I read an article about it awhile back

[swift thistle]

Yeah, now im scared Volition is now going to ignore Saints Row now

[long maple]

well yeah they are under Gearbox now and not Deep Silver. just changing likely helping with those games Gearbox are making

[swift thistle]

Maybe, i feel deep silver went to the Bankruptcy Garage Sale and saw the shiniest thing and bought it.

whos knows we might get a Red Faction game now

[merry palm]

So close to freedom

[swift thistle]

hm?

[merry palm]

It's 4pm on a Friday lol

so close

[long maple]

well we know Dead Island 2 is coming. and Deep Silver are bringing back Timesplitters through their new studio 'free radical design' which was last year

[merry palm]

https://tenor.com/view/so-close-i-could-taste-it-near-almost-close-kate-mc-kinnon-gif-13014007

[tired hare]

U can do it we believe in

[long maple]

ah yeah any plans this weekend?

[tired hare]

Sleep

[merry palm]

To be utterly uninterested in doing any of my chores.

[long maple]

might try watch World Cup, cant watch BBC channel cause I have no TV License but believe I can watch the rest

[tired hare]

I will probably be here 😂

[regal gull]

Is Mw 2 dying

[merry palm]

Oh. Ok and watch twitter melt

[tired hare]

The game is only out 😂

[native fern]

it's not dying, it's literally the best cod imo

[long maple]

gonna go back to playing Somerville nearly finished the game now

[tired hare]

It can't die yet because it only out a week or two maybe in fews weeks

[mellow roost]

Bababooey.

[swift thistle]

Bababooey

[mellow roost]

Also, crossplay is forced again on MW2 for Xbox?

[swift thistle]

You know it

[mellow roost]

Figures. Not even gunna buy it then. I love how PS gets the option to turn off crossplay but not Xbox.

[native fern]

Activision likes Sony more

[mellow roost]

If you disable crossplay through the privacy settings, MW 2019 didn't even work on Xbox, so that's not even a solution either. I'm assuming it's the same for MW2 2022.

[swift thistle]

Microsoft gave or either is planning to give them 44 billion

[mellow roost]

Battlefield 2042 also doesn't function on Xbox if you disable crossplay.

[swift thistle]

battlefield 2042 has crossplay
lol
didn't even know it had it

[mellow roost]

Yeap.

[native fern]

they released shoot house on mw and I've been having a blast

[pine vessel]

Bruh, I want the police siren in FH5 but apparently it can only be purchased through forzathon shop or festival playlist

[swift thistle]

rip

anyways Overwatch 2 is actually doing something interesting

[fallen sinew]

Happy international men's day!

[swift thistle]

its not the 19th yet for me but you know what?
thank you :)

[fallen sinew]

Haha down under it is today lol.

[cinder veldt]

Correct

[worn shale]

Whats it doing?

[tight haven]

Ski mask up no ninja

[fluid creek]

what

[swift thistle]

They're going to change how the battlepass works

[tight haven]

Overwatch 2 is trash

[gray latch]

keep it constructive please

[tight haven]

Dawg what 💀

[swift thistle]

Make it more friendly towards people who don't want to spend cash for monetization

[gray latch]

the only thing you're allowed to call trash here is bigots

dawg

[swift thistle]

Its the best Overwatch has ever been since 2016

[sage ice]

what about trash pandas?

[tight haven]

Npc

[gray latch]

read the rules

[swift thistle]

also if anyone is curious Sombra, Zaria, Genji, D.va, and Kiriko are getting nerfed and Junkrat is getting buffed

[tired hare]

😔

[fluid creek]

you had to read the rules to join

why is it so hard?

lol

[swift thistle]

still not nerfing Sojurn

[native fern]

nerf roadhog instead of Kiriko

[tight haven]

I did ☠️

[swift thistle]

Roadhog doesn't need a nerf

[gray latch]

following them is step 2

[fluid creek]

then why are you getting upset at being told to be constructive and not be rude??

[native fern]

yes he does, he definitely does, he can heal him self up to full and it's annoying

[tight haven]

I didn’t know having an opinion on a game was rude 💀

[weary solar]

#rules 😃 1. Be cool, kind, and civil. Treat all members with respect and express your thoughts in a constructive manner.

[sage ice]

[tight haven]

I negatively dislike overwatch 2

[sage ice]

then dont play it and play something you like ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[queen lotus]

Double negative, so you like ow?

[gray latch]

I like Deus Ex

[swift thistle]

I mean sure he can heal himself but its a channel so he can be knocked out of it, Roadhog is good but doesn't need a nerf

[swift thistle]

i heard a new one is being worked on

[worn shale]

Thank god

[gray latch]

yeah!! I can't wait

[unique wasp]

I like tibia

[gray latch]

also excited for the next Dragon Age

[worn shale]

He's also AWFUL in teamfights. The only use he has is being a meat shield(which Reinhardt does better anyway), and his hook(which is single target and easily whiffed)

[tight haven]

I strongly disagree sir

[worn shale]

Roadhog needs a buff if anything

[swift thistle]

I heard one of the devs was in jail

[queen lotus]

i'm currently playing ow2, because now it's edgy to like something.

[tired hare]

I need some creative minds. Is there a way the verified icon and clown emoji could be combined in a way that communicates “verified clown”?

[tight haven]

☠️

[worn shale]

Overwatch 2 has issues but it's fun

[warped pendant]

make the hair tufts verified checkmarks in red

🤡

or even better

they're already blue

[worn shale]

I do miss OW1. OW2 feels like the first one without the soul

[unique wasp]

There’s something special with games like Tibia where you can kill others and take their belongings from their corpse. Sure it’s annoying but it also makes the game more exciting compared to other mmos where dying is not a big deal and other players can’t really negatively impact you

[warped pendant]

just make the checkmark the hair tufts

idk I'm trying 😭

[swift thistle]

Yeah i mean if he hooks a dps or support they just die but we all know roadhog players can't hook targets that aren't 3 feet from them

[upper meteor]

Hi trying 😭, I'm Icky Spartan

[tight haven]

Npc

[worn shale]

He's also SOL once his hook is on CD. Like oh no roadhog is slowly walking towards me I'm so scared

[swift thistle]

Oh and i forgot to mention but they are going to rework supports

[worn shale]

I heard and I'm happy. As a support main I'm so tired of getting support in every flex queue

[swift thistle]

i heard of the great switch were all the good players went from Support to DPS

[worn shale]

What I'd like are supports that don't heal but support in other ways. Every support has a heal and I think having a non healer that throws out shields or armor, or teleports to allies to block damage, would be really cool.

[swift thistle]

i feel like Moira shouldve been a dps

[tight haven]

I have heard very mixed comments about that 🤔 maybe I should test it out myself 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[worn shale]

Mobas can get really creative with supports and I'd like to see hero shooters try doing wacky support stuff too

[tight haven]

Period 💅💅 I strongly support your opinion 😁😁

[swift thistle]

mobas
Supports are Tanks in mobas

[worn shale]

Supports in mobas aren't always tanks. Lulu in LoL isn't a tank lol

And Lulu supports with shields and slows

[vast jay]

anyone tryna buy me gamepass ultimate

[tight haven]

Ive read about that online 😅 maybe I should give it a try 😆😆

[swift thistle]

sorry i only play one Moba and thats Smite because if i had to play more then one then id have a brain aneurysm

[worn shale]

Smite has non tanky supports too. Aphrodite, for example.

[tight haven]

Sorry fancy young gentleman 😁 i seem to be quite short on money 😂😂

[swift thistle]

Thats not a support thats a mage

[tight haven]

It just got deep real quick 😮

[worn shale]

Aphro is a support lol. She's a mage yes but she's also a support. Heals, temp invincibility

[unique wasp]

Is smite out of gods to add?

[swift thistle]

not yet

[tight haven]

Im getting a ps5 omg

I hate to see my xbox go but i need an upgrade

[swift thistle]

i mean sure she can be played like a Guardian but playing support mages in the ADC lane doesn't always end up well.
unless it was release baba yaga then i would agree

[worn shale]

Went well for me lol

[tight haven]

Fr lmao

[swift thistle]

Granted i don't play smite anymore because of other games.

so i don't know if things changed or not

only thing to bring me back is a DMC battlepass

[unique wasp]

I used to play as sun wukong and the chinese dragon, forgot the name

[swift thistle]

Ao Quang?

[unique wasp]

Yeah that one. I really liked the ulti and getting multikills with it

I should try it again, it has been like 5 years

[swift thistle]

good luck with that

it has changed extremely

Arby n the chief season 8 finale coming out in 9 minutes

[mellow roost]

Kinda funny (not ha-ha funny, but hmm 😐 funny) how we were just talking about the dubstep gun earlier and I get this on TikTok.

Also, speaking of which, musical guns need to be a thing.

Like, seriously, the dubstep gun was such an awesome concept.

[swift thistle]

I remember it

[upper meteor]

Imagine a musical gun in halo

[swift thistle]

good times

[swift thistle]

i want a gun that breaks the sound barrier in halo

[upper meteor]

Gauss hog

[gray latch]

yes!! I love the dub step gun

[swift thistle]

Too bad it wasn't in the reboot

[gray latch]

when you shoot it at ppl they dance

awww

[mellow roost]

Yeah I was just about to say I'm pretty sure there's some form of railgun in Halo.

[merry palm]

That's so cool

Someone tell borderlands to add that to my next game. Ty

[mellow roost]

The dubstep gun also had different songs. My favorite one was the industrial one, it was metal music.

[upper meteor]

Yeah there's also the railgun from halo 4 and 5

I guess the sniper rifle also breaks the sound barrier.. iirc

[swift thistle]

Dubstep gun was cool

[mellow roost]

Yeah Saints Row 4 was pretty damn wild.

The dubstep gun, Mr. Toots, the foam finger... I don't understand why things like these aren't more common. It's not like every single game is meant to be super serious, you know?

Add some goofy stuff just for fun. It improves the experience.

I mean, hell, even Battlefield has the Kolibri. 😆

To be fair, the Kolibri is just terrible and there's no reason to use it, but still.

[lunar tartan]

Kylie’s grumpy when she’s sick 😷 😂

[tired hare]

Boss Hog

[gray latch]

I like the guns in some games that shoot random crap you pick up

[mellow roost]

For the unaware, it was a super tiny gun that only did like 2 damage per shot, so you'd have to shoot someone like 50+ times to actually kill them.

[tired hare]

Rock-it Launcher!

I think that's what it was called, in Fallout 3. Fired literal garbage.

[desert sonnet]

Roadhog in Overwatch shoots junk too!

[brave wasp]

Apparently all you need to do to add maximum goofy value to your multiplayer game is turn on proximity chat, lol. It's working for Warzone 2 🤣

[mellow roost]

Y'all aren't prepared for how you held the Kolibri either. Wait for it.

[gray latch]

sounds right 😄

[lunar tartan]

It’s so cute

[lunar tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/cute-kawaii-zomg-gif-12496012

[desert sonnet]

Lol I love Battlefield shenanigans so much 🥲

[mellow roost]

Anyway, my point is, devs pls add meme weapons to games. Makes things fun.

[brave wasp]

I'm gonna assume it doesn't have a trigger guard 🤣

[desert sonnet]

Some of em had funny reload animations too

[lunar tartan]

I typed in kawai and that gif was the first one

[abstract pulsar]

I will stop at nothing until there is a vinyl record gun in every game (well I will, 'cuz I just thought about it in the moment)

[mellow roost]

Nah. No space for it. 😂

[brave wasp]

Far Cry 6 had top tier meme weapons

[lunar tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/smallgun-gun-smallestgun-gif-21771966

A new meaning to “say hello to my little friend”

[brave wasp]

Like the one in Far Cry 6, lol?

[abstract pulsar]

Wait, that exists in FC6?

[rich aurora]

all my clothes fit me once again

[mellow roost]

Also, since we're on the topic of terrible meme guns, this is the cream of the crop of stupid garbage.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_94_Nambu_pistol

[brave wasp]

Not records, it shot CDs tho 😆

[abstract pulsar]

My day has been made

[tired hare]

pew pew pew!

[brave wasp]

It played the Macarena with each shot, lol

[mellow roost]

The Type 94 Nambu had a sear bar that was on the outside of the gun.

Basically what that meant is if you held the gun a certain way, you'd literally shoot a round off without pulling the trigger. Garbage.

[abstract pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/extended-mag-shotgun-gaming-reload-gif-21067761

Nice idea

[mellow roost]

And yes, the rare Battlefield reloads are fantastic.

[mellow roost]

You refuse to watch any movies, you just use them to fall asleep to. 😩

[lunar tartan]

I can’t help it 😩

[mellow roost]

I knew that was exactly what you were gunna say.

[lunar tartan]

I get bored with it so easily

Movies put me to sleep better than the PS presentation dude

[mellow roost]

I mean you're not wrong. Mark Cerny is probably the most boring talker on earth.

[lunar tartan]

So monotonous

[mellow roost]

I don't even know how he does it, he just makes everything he says sound abysmal.

[lunar tartan]

Lol

Nothing against PlayStation of course but he’s not the best guy for that job

[abstract pulsar]

And so I did, for 2 minutes

What made it more entertaining was the sound of the wolves howling and pigs grunting as the ominous sounds of thunder crashed... while I ||stared at this child||.

[mellow roost]

I think the thing that blows my mind the most is that he's actually an incredible speaker, all things considered. He gets his thoughts out professionally, doesn't really make any errors, he's just a good speaker.

He just completely botched his charisma roll when making his character.

Rolled a solid nat 1.

just finished Somerville, very good game. didnt like getting stuck on the environment couple times though. but was enjoyable

I can't handle generic brands - They never work for me. No matter what it is.

[mellow roost]

Honestly, I get it, but the generic brands are usually so, so much cheaper, you know?

[lunar tartan]

Honestly a lot of the generics are the exact same as the original. Our minds are a very powerful thing

[mellow roost]

Like, I can get a bottle of off-brand Excedrin, for, not even kidding, 99¢.

Name-brand Excedrin is several dollars.

[lunar tartan]

Some are even made in the exact same place just labeled differently

[mellow roost]

Yeap. The joys of the manufacturing process.

White label products are everywhere, and you wouldn't even think about some of them.

[tidal topaz]

is cod modernwarfare 2 worth it?

[mellow roost]

The beta was pretty excellent, haven't played the full game though.

[tidal topaz]

u think it will go on sale on cybermonday?

[lusty crow]

It's too new. I highly doubt there will be a sale that soon.

[mellow roost]

Yeah what they said.

[hushed zephyr]

Hey guy I have two month game pass ultimate codes but it’s for new players… first comes get it.

[lusty crow]

If it was something like Saints Row, maybe, but COD literally makes them the most amount of money out of any franchise they have.

[mellow roost]

Feel free to dump your code in #xbox-game-pass or #gaming-deals. Or, if you would like to use the code for yourself, you don't need an Xbox. Game Pass Ultimate works on both PC (Game Pass for PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming) and mobile devices (Xbox Cloud Gaming).

Don't forget that it's a trial code, and as such, can only be used by new subscribers. If you dump it in the aforementioned channels instead of using it yourself, make sure to let people know.

[queen lotus]

[zealous lodge]

you to sushi gamer

[gray latch]

yay! glad to hear it :)

if you find someone who's really good at it, it barely hurts at all. the trick is apparently ||not moving the needle around at all when it's in your arm || (spoilered for talk of needles)

the last guy I got was so good, I could even sleep on that arm the first night

[mellow roost]

Yeah, for sure. I didn't even feel mine, which was crazy.

[gray latch]

[merry palm]

yeah but would remy?

[mellow roost]

I mean we got a choice from some street rat and a...very pampered mouse. I mean, sure, Stuart fought off some birds and a cat, but if Remy got a hold of Stuart...

[merry palm]

street rat... he wasnt tho?

wasnt he living under a resturant?

[mellow roost]

Oh, yeah, I think you might be right.

[merry palm]

the real question here is.. stuart is a little kid.

vs adult remy

[mellow roost]

Hmm. Yeah, that just skews it even further. Kinda wonder what adult Stuart would be capable of. 🤔

[chrome pendant]

You're pinning a strong, manipulative mastermind rat who's smart enough to cook and a... mouse who, by theory sakes, is a mouse human mutant? Honestly idk who'd win.

[brave wasp]

The rat, lol

[desert sonnet]

Rat would win!

[brave wasp]

Mans can pilot meat mechs 🤣

[worn shale]

Rat would eviscerate the mouse

[merry palm]

remy would let stuart win bc he is like.. a little kid

[desert sonnet]

Remy would wipe the floor with Stuart

[chrome pendant]

Remy literally kidnapped a food inspector and shoved him in a closet-

[rich aurora]

Found this album again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSjwBniwiHw&ab_channel=Mariac432

[merry palm]

another Adult not a little kid

[rich aurora]

Amazing album

[merry palm]

stuart is a child lol

[desert sonnet]

Stuart better watch his back around Remy

[chrome pendant]

Whatevs, I don't think Remy is sincere enough to let a kid win

[brave wasp]

Remy is literally a Jaeger pilot from Pacific Rim, but with a meat mech

[merry palm]

arent we all lol

[worn shale]

This is a death battle. Self preservation exists.

[merry palm]

eh

says who?

i would let the kid win

[worn shale]

Nah if it's life or death remy wouldn't just give up.

That mouse is gonna be rat food real quick

[lunar tartan]

Kylie was bare knuckle boxing a bug that made it into our apartment

[mellow roost]

I cocked back, swung, and POW. 🤜🏻

[worn shale]

Oh! In other news, OW2 is adding aim assist for pc and console!

[merry palm]

the real q is.. who is making up fights between a kid and an adult.. to the death smh

[lunar tartan]

I thought she broke her knuckles

[worn shale]

Some kids are dangerous. Have you SEEN The Collector in The Owl House?

[mellow roost]

To be fair, I didn't even know Stuart was a child and I've watched the movie a bazillion times. I guess it wouldn't be too farfetched that other people didn't realize. 😄

[rich aurora]

Stuart is super intelligent and naive, and Remi is intelligent and a bit of a con

[fluid creek]

boy what a discount

[rich aurora]

so i say remi wons by a little slide

[halcyon stratus]

Stuart little was 7 and operated at the level of a 16 year old human boy - per the internet

[merry palm]

eh

i read the book and saw the movie lol

no way

[night rapids]

'per the internet' AKA 'trust me bro'

[rich aurora]

Remi is like evil mastermind though

[merry palm]

i mean yeah.. behave older than our teens today. but thats about it

its an old book

[rich aurora]

Stuart is very naive in the books

[merry palm]

still.. even if we go by 16 year old.. its still a kid

[halcyon stratus]

The longest a rat had lived in captivity is 7 years

Remy is also a kid then

[merry palm]

no bc he is def portrayed as an adult

and stuart as a child

[mellow roost]

Here's potentially a good one. Optimus Prime vs. The Iron Giant. Who wins? 🤔

[merry palm]

oh thats a good one

hm

[rich aurora]

while Remi is very manipulative

[mellow roost]

My initial reaction is that Optimus Prime would win, but then I think about...well...the fact that Iron Giant is a giant gun, and I don't know.

[merry palm]

same.. like

its too close

[halcyon stratus]

Optimus Prime@would stop fighting when he realized Iron Giant is a good guy

[rich aurora]

i would say optimus prime, because he has access to the technology of cybertron

[mellow roost]

Actually the more I think about it, this fight would just straight up be depressing.

[merry palm]

yep

[mellow roost]

If Iron Giant said "Superman," I'd cry for the rest of my life.

[merry palm]

lets pit a couple of good guys against ewachother and pretend they would actually fight to the death lol

smh

wouldnt work at all

[worn shale]

I mean it's just for fun. Like a what if scenario

[merry palm]

and thats what i am saying

it wouldnt work

:)

you;d have to completely ignore who they were to make it work

[mellow roost]

Yeah, these types of what-ifs are usually with the condition that they actually would fight, as illogical it may be given their characters.

[merry palm]

how boring

make it reasonable lol

toss in a narrative device idk

[mellow roost]

Because yeah, Optimus Prime and Iron Giant would never be fighting, you're right. Iron Giant would go sicko mode at first, but as long as Optimus Prime was able to signify that he wasn't a threat, I think IG would understand.

[worn shale]

Yeah it's fun. Like no one thinks that iron giant and Optimus would fight. Power scaling and hypothetical fights are all for kicks and I like that.

[mellow roost]

I found another one, Kratos vs. The Dragonborn (from Skyrim), and...

https://tenor.com/view/unsure-curb-enthusiasm-doubt-idk-gif-4548077

The Dragonborn is kinda busted, if we're being real here.

Lore-based Dragonborn is comically overpowered.

[worn shale]

Kratos kills Gods regularly

[half hazel]

Optimus hates killing deceptions iirc
Idk why he would fight my boy the iron giant

[mellow roost]

Sure, but can he kill a god that can achieve CHIM?

[worn shale]

CHIM?

[mellow roost]

I kinda feel like aside from all the broke TDB already is, CHIM throws a huge wrench into the entire thing.

[half hazel]

Well except for bayverse prime
Bayverse prime was blood lusted as hell

Anyways
Is the dragonborn technically a messianic figure

He kinda strikes me as one

[mellow roost]

To make a very long story short, CHIM is a theory in the Elder Scrolls universe.

Essentially, the idea is that the "God" of the Elder Scrolls universe is a sleeping being, and everyone is part of that Godhead's dream. If you achieve CHIM, one of two things can occur. You either realize you aren't real but accept it and become what is essentially a lucid-dreamer with the power to do anything, or you zero-sum and blink out of existence immediately.

[dark sparrow]

Kirby vs The Dragonborn

[mellow roost]

CHIM is what people think might have happened to the Dwarves.

They couldn't handle the idea that they were just a dream, and everyone blinked.

It's a pretty god damn wild theory, honestly.

[half hazel]

So what happens if he just wakes up

[mellow roost]

There's a whole page on it if you're interested.

https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:CHIM

[worn shale]

It's just a theory tho. Theoretically CHIM makes DB as powerful as Dr. Manhattan, but in universe it hasn't been confirmed or denied

So really the fight between him and Kratos can go either way depending if you subscribe to that theory

[mellow roost]

I mean you absolutely have a point there for sure. It is just a theory, something that's never been confirmed. That being said, in if it is true, it puts Kratos is a pretty wild spot.

[half hazel]

How about doom guy vs kratos

[mellow roost]

Doomguy wipes Kratos without breaking a sweat.

[half hazel]

Agree

[mellow roost]

The way Doomguy is written, he's...I mean... He's basically One Punch Man.

He can't die, and he just grows stronger and stronger until he's able to kill whatever is threatening him.

[half hazel]

I like to think his helmet plays the music

[mellow roost]

Lmao, I like that one.

[half hazel]

Like it's just his chill killing tunes

[worn shale]

Oh if Doomslayer is like that, put him against Hulk or Broly. Characters with similar powers

[half hazel]

Doom guy will smash hulk lmao

[worn shale]

Broly: gets stronger the longer he's in a fight
Hulk: gets stronger the angrier he gets

[worn shale]

Hulk punched a hole in space time.

[mellow roost]

Hulk is like, my favorite superhero ever, but... I don't know.

Sure, Hulk's power is technically limitless, but...there's really only so mad he can get, you know? Whereas Doomguy has no limit, he just does.

[half hazel]

I wonder if theres a point where hulk gets so angry
His head just bursts

[mellow roost]

Now, Doomguy vs. Dr. Manhattan would be a trip.

It would either be over instantly with Dr. Manhattan winning, or Doomguy would struggle for a very, very, very long time and win.

[worn shale]

Manhattan can literally predict the future. He'd end Doom Guy before he even got close to strong enough

[half hazel]

I wanna see a transformer fight a Pacific rim jaeger

[mellow roost]

Hence why I figure if it didn't end instantly, Doomguy wins.

[tired hare]

What about Doomguy and Isabelle vs Dr Manhattan

https://tenor.com/view/rip-and-tear-doom-doomguy-isabelle-isabelle-animal-crossing-gif-26156184

[half hazel]

The weird looking dog wins ez

[worn shale]

True. I'd say put him against Broly since him and Doom Guy get more powerful the longer they're in a fight. I'd use classic Broly since he's constantly angry and is a very violent psychopath.

[mellow roost]

Could be neat.

[worn shale]

I'd say Broly would probably edge out the win, though. Because he can go super saiyan he'd already have a power advantage

[half hazel]

I wonder if vader could hold his own against iron man

I feel like he wouldn't even let iron man get close

[mellow roost]

That's the problem though, I'm not sure. Doomguy's armor is indestructible, and he was blessed by the Primeval making him both immortal and the whole power scaling thing I mentioned earlier.

It's why I believe Doomguy would actually have a chance against the Warhammer 40k universe.

And we all know how catastrophically busted the 40k universe is. Jesus.

[tired hare]

Shaggy vs Dagwood Bumstead

Food fight.

[worn shale]

40k's universe is gloriously depraved and its super interesting. Shame some of people in the community aren't the greatest people.

[mellow roost]

I mean you're not wrong there. Definitely has some...interesting folks in it.

[brave wasp]

Ugh, my gun screen refuses to stay equipped in MW2

[worn shale]

Also, if the Orcs weren't stupid, they'd destroy Doom Guy.

Orcs have a unique ability where if enough of them believe something, it becomes a reality.

[half hazel]

Ok but can we talk about how peter griffin is an actual good fighter

[tired hare]

Steven Universe vs She-Ra

[worn shale]

Theoretically if enough Orcs believed that Doom Guy was weak, Doom Guy would become weak.

[tired hare]

https://tenor.com/view/shera-she-ra-and-the-princesses-of-power-gif-25979362

I want more She-Ra but it’ll probably never happen

[mellow roost]

Yeap, I think that would be the biggest problem. Orks are...well...Orks.

They're so...so unfathomably stupid, but their reality warping powers are a huge threat.

[worn shale]

Smart decision to give such an overpowered ability to the dumbest race in 40k

[mellow roost]

I mean Orks fly through space with holes in their ship because they believe they can breath space.

They can't, but they believe it, so it happens.

[foggy skiff]

y'all saying orcs/orks, I'm thinking Shamu

[tired hare]

Doomslayer vs Slaanesh.

[worn shale]

God that's so funny to me. I love Orks so much

[mellow roost]

This is a double-edged sword, however. Because they're so stupid and because anything they believe becomes reality...

I just remembered this story and I'm crying.

There was one time a band of Orks were laying siege to some castle or fortress or something, and the people defending the fortress ran out of ammo.

So they just...pointed their guns at the Orks, yelled "bang!" and the Orks all died. 😭💀

[foggy skiff]

Gotham Knights is 40% off on the PS Store lol

[worn shale]

My sides. God that's the funniest thing.

[half hazel]

Imagine if the orks suddenly believed they were super intelligent

[tired hare]

That would cause the IQ of the collective universe to drop to accommodate them.

[half hazel]

Now is that good or bad lol

[mellow roost]

There was also this Ork that didn't think having one of his weapon was enough, so he went back in time and killed himself so he could get another copy of his weapon, and the only reason he didn't paradox himself out of existence is because he was too dumb to understand that himself in the past was not a separate entity.

So he got 2 guns.

Orks are brilliant.

[half hazel]

I also heard another story where a band of orks got together and started saying "I'm a tank"
And they became a tank

[mellow roost]

XD

[worn shale]

Okay WHAT. So they can just. Warp reality so hard that paradoxes don't affect them. That's insane.

[tired hare]

Can we get the Orks to believe that McDonalds Pizza is back?

[desert sonnet]

I wonder if Orks are in 40k

[tired hare]

https://tenor.com/view/dakka-tabletop-dungeoneers-discord-orcs-irks-gif-22814163

[half hazel]

So what If the orks just believed the universe didnt exist

Bros have the power to end all the suffering yet they're so stupid
I love it

[mellow roost]

Yeah they're literally too dumb to do much of anything outside of really...weird and menial things. If they were smarter they'd probably rule the universe.

I mean if they grab a piece of wood and think it's a gun, it'll actually shoot, but...

In fact a bunch of crap taped together, as far as I'm aware, is a common Ork weapon.

[half hazel]

Metal and wood slapped together iirc

[mellow roost]

Yep.

[half hazel]

Red also makes things go fast

[mellow roost]

Yep. XD

[worn shale]

Thing is, if Orks were smart, they wouldn't believe all this weird stuff would work, therefore their powers would be useless. Their stupidity fuels their powers.

[tired hare]

What did I just watch

[worn shale]

An animation from gen 9.

[tired hare]

Wat

[worn shale]

Ye

[worn shale]

The games apparently good despite the performance

So I might pick it up and suffer through the frames. I played Disaster Report 4 on switch and enjoyed that despite the god awful frames

[warped pendant]

other than performance and bugs, yes

it's a solid game

[worn shale]

I hope the issues get patched out

I want this game to succeed cause it's trying something new

It's just sad that we have a good game marred by so many issues.

Anyone have problems with cod

[tired hare]

What kind of problems?

[elfin cairn]

Takes a few minutes to find a game

[queen lotus]

Yeah, I prefer tuna

[tired hare]

I had that happen while playing with a group

[elfin cairn]

Yeah, I wonder why

It's so dumb tbh

[native fern]

yeah I'm having troubles too

[fiery python]

We've been having problems most of the week. Playing solo it's fine, no issues. Once I'm grouped with Lucy and/or Louie we get a couple of matches and then it fails to find a game entirely.

If I try to leave the lobby with the group to queue again, it gives an error to say that one of the players doesn't own the right component to do that.

At that point we may as well give up because it will not find a match no matter how long we wait.

[short mantle]

I was hoping they would have fixed it by the weekend, but I guess not. ☹️

[hushed hound]

Good morning!

[elfin cairn]

It loads very fast solo..so weird

[hushed hound]

◇ New game of Peppa Pig 🥰

[fiery python]

The social system is broken right now, so I'm guessing the matchmaking issues are something to do with that because they only occur when grouped for us.

I need more than 200 gb of storage and for the price of the series S and the 1 tb expansion it costs the same as a series X so ima just get the X

[desert sonnet]

Poor rdr 2.. sunsetting their online support

[heavy oar]

I'm sorry, the 1 tb harddrive costs as much as the series x?

[hushed hound]

What happend to rdr1 🤭

[heavy oar]

I.......

[light glade]

No the series S and the 1tb hard drive costs the amount of a series X

[wild tulip]

Expansion pass?

[heavy oar]

Oh. Well imma just get the series x then

[hushed hound]

What ?💀

[heavy oar]

Sorry I was just confused lmao

[wild tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/wat-old-woman-toothless-confused-grandma-gif-5196407

[light glade]

It costs 300 bloody dollars for the Microsoft branded expansion card for the X/S that’s nearly the same amount as a series S

[wild tulip]

It's a very fast card though😁

[heavy oar]

Yeah just get the series x. Better power, better fps, more storage, and a disc drive

[hushed hound]

Not worth spending 300$ for that card, u can get a series s instead

[fiery python]

But if you don't need the disc drive or want that extra power, paying for the S and the card may be the price of an X, but you get 1.5TB of storage instead of 1TB.

[wild tulip]

Games for series X are generally bigger than on series S

[heavy oar]

My fingers smell like popcorn

[wild tulip]

Don't eat your fingers

[heavy oar]

I want more popcorn 😦

[hushed hound]

What popcorn flavor?

[heavy oar]

Instructions unclear: entire hand is currently residing in my stomach.

[heavy oar]

Corn

[wild tulip]

So you became a popcorn in the end?!😱

[hushed hound]

Call a doctor !😱😰

[heavy oar]

Instructions very unclear: my arteries are now butter instead of blood

[desert sonnet]

You rascals.

[wild tulip]

That is actually legit terrifying

[hushed hound]

It flop?

[heavy oar]

You'll be fine as long as you don't see a doctor in Ohio

[hushed hound]

Only in Ohio

[heavy oar]

Ofc it's Ohio bruh

Except hanging out with my gf. That was nice

[maiden coral]

does anyone know why my xbox app on my windows 11 computer isnt loading?

like it stays on the loading screen and never boots

i cant even close the app

[hushed hound]

Try restarting ur computer by pressing the power button for 5-10 seconds

[native fern]

https://tenor.com/view/tired-exhausted-gif-24415175

[maiden coral]

when i press the power off button it automatically turns off

[hushed hound]

https://tenor.com/view/slay-periodt-eskaymagico-gif-26669383

[maiden coral]

i tried holding it down and it just flashed white

[hushed hound]

That's not possible, try turn back on

[maiden coral]

Its updating

[fiery python]

Can you move it over to #233805809346150400 , please?

[maiden coral]

ok

[worn shale]

just watched Hardcore Henry. hadnt seen it in a while and its just as awesome as i remember it

[short mantle]

Did you claim the flying Pikachu, Rhinne?

[nimble oracle]

waddup

[fiery python]

No, not yet. Is that from the card in the box?

Or the internet claim thing, I mean. Mentioned on the card in the box.

[short mantle]

Mystery gift

[fiery python]

I've not quit out of the game yet to get the option.

[desert sonnet]

I need a new show to watch. Finished Arcane and Atlanta. Idk what next

[hushed hound]

Tom & Jerry

[fiery python]

Solar Opposites

[desert sonnet]

Good suggestions!

[wild tulip]

Is edge runners good show?

[hushed hound]

Or Regular Show

[light glade]

Swag like Ohio

[short mantle]

I’m not getting anything good from surprise trades. I keep getting the same ones back 😆

[worn shale]

have you seen Bojack Horseman?

if not, thats a show you need to watch. its incredible

[wild tulip]

horsin' around?

[light glade]

It was meh

[worn shale]

did you watch past the first few episodes?

[wild tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/inconceivable-princessbride-impossible-gif-5806265

[hushed hound]

H2O 😍

[light glade]

Nah got very bored after the first episode realised it was just another Netflix copy paste show and never watched it again
The reviews for the show only made my opinion of it worse

[desert sonnet]

I settled on Umbrella Academy 😅

[wild tulip]

What did it copy from?👀

[light glade]

Every Netflix animated show is the same

[worn shale]

thats the thing. its not. if you actually bothered to watch at least the first season all the way through youd know it actually delves into the psyche of someone who is very mentally ill

[wild tulip]

That's a hot take

[native fern]

supernatural is good

[worn shale]

bojack horseman ISNT like other shows. its a unique character piece

[wild tulip]

Carry on my wayward son

[light glade]

Sounds boring 🤷‍♂️
I do plan on re watching it eventually just more important shows to watch first

[native fern]

I'm only on the 1st episode

[worn shale]

its honestly the best show ive ever watched. i have no problems with it whatsoever.

[wild tulip]

It's an intro song

[native fern]

https://tenor.com/view/shapes-and-colors-the-lights-of-which-ive-never-seen-bojack-will-arnett-bojack-horseman-kaleidoscope-gif-16133503

[worn shale]

one of my favorite jokes in the show honestly

[wild tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/exercise-bojack-horseman-bojack-horseman-gets-easier-gif-12533952

[worn shale]

my favorite moment tho, has to be when bojack is begging diane to tell him hes a good person. that cut deep

[light glade]

See there is no way a Netflix original will be better than twd braking bad or even better caul Saul for me atleast

[native fern]

wrong, arcane>breaking bad imo

[worn shale]

you havent given it a chance, you dont know. my roommate has watched breaking bad and bcs and he still views Bojack as a masterpiece right up there with those shows

[wild tulip]

How long qualifies for giving it a chance?

[worn shale]

first season.

[wild tulip]

That's a lot of time invested though

[worn shale]

the show hits its stride around episode 8 and doesnt stop. the earlier episodes are setting up the characters

[fiery python]

Bojack is such a great show.

[wild tulip]

Yes fans united🥳

[worn shale]

it honestly did help me recognize and address my toxic traits. i saw myself in bojack and i HATED that

like i was neglecting my friends, begging for unearned validation, etc

[fiery python]

It also helps to teach that sometimes it's okay to not be okay.

[worn shale]

exactly. bojack isnt okay but hes trying. hes trying to improve, to be better than he was

[wild tulip]

I am sad for Carolyn

[worn shale]

my ex is alot like Princess Caroline

always puts others needs ahead of her own, which affects her greatly

shes also constantly on the go, never taking time for herself

[flint lily]

Stuff happens, we sometimes learn things the hard way

[worn shale]

its just funny that it took a show about a depressed horse man to get me to recognize that i was being toxic

[fiery python]

I also never expected a TV episode with zero spoken dialogue to be one of the best episodes I've seen of any show.

[worn shale]

oh my god that episode was incredible, but my favorite episode is Free Churro. an episode thats all monologue and its one of the most compelling episodes of any show ive ever watched

[flint lily]

theres worse ways

[fiery python]

I never got round to watching the finale half season and it's been too long now that I need to do a full rewatch and binge my way through.

[worn shale]

you gotta do it. the finale is perfect.

rarely do shows end perfectly. Bojack did.

[light glade]

No show or game or movie or any sort of media Is perfect

[worn shale]

no, some are perfect. very few, but deff some

[light glade]

Nothing is perfect as much as we’d like to think some things are

[worn shale]

like id consider 12 Angry Men to be a perfect film. the 50s one. i havent seen the remake in a while

[merry palm]

It's usually a preference thing

Good for you though, that you like something

[fiery python]

The remake is actually pretty good. I saw the remake before the original, long time ago on a flight somewhere.

[worn shale]

was it as good as the original? cause the original is honestly a masterpiece of cinema

[tired hare]

is that the one where they're a jury

[worn shale]

ye

[flint lily]

one of my favorites series of all time would be seal team, just because it covers all the aspects of being in specops
I may be biased because it hits close to home, but yeah, great show

[fiery python]

I really enjoyed the remake personally. Each version was well done.

[worn shale]

i like alot of things

[worn shale]

ill have to check it out again at some point. i always enjoy comparing remakes with the originals. seeing what was done better, what was done worse

[tired hare]

50s/60s is really good for all-time great writing, I was thinking of Rope and couple others.

[fiery python]

It's a fairly basic film, in that it's just a single room with 12 people, so there's not really much for it to go wrong, as long as the performances are on form.

[wild tulip]

What about movies with 1 person in the room?

[flint lily]

A beautiful day in the neighborhood is my favorite movie of all time and its not even close

[fiery python]

Moon is superb.

[worn shale]

i remember watching Stepford Wives. the original and the remake. and they both were flawed in different ways. the original had awful pacing and was really boring, but it carried its message extremely well. the remake was ALOT of fun but it borked the message at the end. then Don't Worry Darling came out and its a better Stepford Wives than the other 2

so in the end, i got a Stepford Wives movie i enjoyed. but it wasnt called Stepford Wives.

[flint lily]

there's probably actors that would reassemble Mr Rogers better but hanks' performance just made that movie special

[fiery python]

Speaking of films with one person in a room, I'm looking forward to watching the new movie with Willem Dafeo called Inside.

[worn shale]

i mean cinematography also plays a big part. the original did this neat thing with focal length of the lenses being gradually increased throughout the movie. made the movie feel more claustrophobic as it went on

[tired hare]

I couldn't think of 1 person films, but actually do know one, its called Darling

[worn shale]

Buried is really good

[fiery python]

127 Hours

[worn shale]

Buried has Ryan Reynolds NOT playing himself, which is cool

[wild tulip]

I was about to suggest that to Rhinne
With Ryan Reynolds

[fiery python]

I've seen Buries, it's good.

[flint lily]

camera positioning and motion is way more important than people realize

[worn shale]

oh yeah, like if a shot is framed poorly it can negatively impact the scene

[wild tulip]

Cube is good
Although not a 1 person movie

[flint lily]

mhm

[worn shale]

and honestly even if a movie isnt my thing i can still recognize it as good, critically speaking

[wild tulip]

Platform is good

[tired hare]

Theres a similar film, its almost zero talking called The Dark Below 2015

[worn shale]

looked it up. seems cool

one movie i enjoyed was Martyrs(2008). its hard to sit through tho.

like that movie is amazing but its not a fun movie. its incredibly dark and messed up.

[wild tulip]

I heard its a messed up movie

[worn shale]

i recommend it ONLY if you can tolerate heavy amounts of gory brutal torture

[tired hare]

I'm aware of it, i've been meaning to watch it and funny games when I get into the mood

[worn shale]

which funny games? the original or the american remake

[tired hare]

was gonna watch the originals of both, as they're the ones that people bring up. In horror place martyrs came up several times couple weeks ago, so put on my list

[scenic abyss]

I wish there was a white series x. My ps5 and switch are white and the Xbox stands out

[worn shale]

Martyrs is deff a good movie. the american remake is apparently HEAVILY toned down so i skipped out on it. as for funny games, havent seen either but ill watch the original first

[wild tulip]

I watched a few messed up movies:
Requiem for a dream
Tusk
New order
Human centipede

I don't like gore

[worn shale]

actually. now that i think of it martyrs wasnt super gory. it was heavy, violent and incredibly depressing.

so you might be okay with Martyrs

also human centipede is a meme. that movie was silly and i couldnt take it seriously

[tired hare]

like sharknado, i've always intentionally just not watched human centipede.

[wild tulip]

What about Tusk?

[worn shale]

havent seen it, cant comment

[tired hare]

I've seen Tusk, I just thought it was bizarre, I just like anything justin long.

[worn shale]

oh, another film i loved but had a hard time watching. The Dirties. not sure if i can describe what its about here, so look it up yourself

its not a super violent movie, its just really disturbing

[tired hare]

I think the most displeasing films ive seen aren't really types of movies i'd recommend, think Perfect Blue prob ben worth it if like anime

[worn shale]

Perfect Blue was AMAZING

i need to watch Kon's other works

[wild tulip]

Watch Fly with Goldbloom

[worn shale]

The Fly wasnt super disturbing to me. it was just gory fun

[nimble oracle]

anyone awake

[wild tulip]

I had nightmares as a kid

[tired hare]

That old anime style is so nice to look at. Ghost in Shell is alltime favorite, yet never saw creators other stuff

[worn shale]

GitS was also very good. live action remake sucked tho

[nimble oracle]

yo

[worn shale]

i didnt have nightmares as a kid. just bizarre dreams

[nimble oracle]

evolution of cat

[wild tulip]

That cat mastered the game "I'm bread"

[worn shale]

oh, i recommend Malignant. that movie was. uh. something.

[worn shale]

like its a good movie but man it has such a weird tonal shift near the end. and that tonal shift is alot of fun, but its jarring

James Wan is a weird guy

oh, Pearl is another good one that came out recently. very good psychological horror film about a young girls descent into madness. its a prequel to X, which was also very good. very fun slasher.

Pearl actually might be my favorite horror film from this year. and my favorite film this year in general.

[quick sequoia]

Hi

[tired hare]

Them 2 on my list, im watching Smile now. Hard to say what top fav of year is, figured mine would be like everyone else once I see them 2 and Barbarian

[quick sequoia]

Can I ask something

[wild tulip]

Watch romanian thriller Watcher

[fiery python]

You don't need permission to ask questions.

[worn shale]

Barbarian was awesome. very out there movie with a cool, if nonsensical, monster.

[quick sequoia]

Will overwatch 2 call me if I put my phone number in the game?

[wild tulip]

You already asked xD

[fiery python]

I don't think so. It's just for verification and helps to stop troll/alt accounts.

[quick sequoia]

Can someone check

[fiery python]

No

[desert sonnet]

I stayed up by accident again. Bleh

[fiery python]

You have internet access. Contact Blizzard support if you're concerned.

[wild tulip]

Don't punish yourself😢

[desert sonnet]

I won't lol

But I will punish these mozzarella sticks

[worn shale]

they wont call you. they have no need to. its just for verification.

[fiery python]

At most you'd maybe get a verification text, but they won't waste money on calls.

[quick sequoia]

Ok Ty

[worn shale]

anyway this year was a stacked year for movies

[wild tulip]

Calls are pretty outdated

[worn shale]

like theres been so many amazing films in 2022

[wild tulip]

In future we will have thoughts transfer

[native fern]

It was so good, I'm very interested in War/military movies so I liked it

[worn shale]

if youre into war movies, a new remake of All Quiet On the Western Front is out on Netflix

[desert sonnet]

Ooo I wanna see that

[native fern]

[flint lily]

[native fern]

[open chasm]

with this design actually
