[mighty kelp]

it looked sick. i was sad all that came out

excited for the future

[fervent walrus]

Antireal tweated back in june she plans to make a public update sooner or later. Game got delayed with no release date but still within playstation 2025 fiscal years which end in march 2026. Had small playtest in june july and sept. 30 day research test seperate in sept as well. Joeseph cross and dmg04 posted things concerning marathon today. Possible rumors of september state of play featuring marathon.

[mighty kelp]

ty beebledopp. this sounds promising

[proven kernel]

Good… actually I don’t know what pronouns you use… Tabescent!

[shy flame]

Felt. Our burden and signifiers as women must be to always bear the crosses.

[shy flame]

Im taking strawbabyboy impressionist applications, you may submit them here via written word

[sour cairn]

what is strawbabyboy

[shy flame]

I hope you LEARN.

[sour cairn]

wruf...

[shy flame]

Any bungie lore nerds? I have a stupid question

[proven kernel]

I might have a stupid answer.

[shy flame]

So remember in the Xol mission when stuff gets crazy and its trembling and that voice says to drown in the deep?

[kindred vigil]

I'm not well inclined but I'm a support member

[shy flame]

Bet you tell all the girls that one

[proven kernel]

Yes?

[shy flame]

Is that Rhulk's voice?

[sour cairn]

no thats xol

[shy flame]

Because he also talks about the Deep a lot

[kindred vigil]

The deep has been a concept to reference to the darkness for a while I'm sure @ Persephone confirm this

[latent gyro]

you will drift

[shy flame]

Oh i always assumed it was something like. Taking over Xol or after Xol

[proven kernel]

Nope

[sour cairn]

rhulks only has lines in vow of the disciple/preservation

[kindred vigil]

Rhulk probably wasn't even a concept when xol was released

[sour cairn]

yeah internally the darkness faction got rebooted like 500 times over

[shy flame]

No i know it was a thing for some time, but I thought it was like retconn-y with them going YEAH RHULK WAS THE ONE TALKING AND NOT XOL

[shy flame]

Yeah the concept art for rhulk on art station was fucking sick

[proven kernel]

They never did. It was always Xol.

[kindred vigil]

yeah xol is just saying shi in yo head

and now he's a sniper

[shy flame]

Does Xol say to Drown in the Deep tho? Or am I misremembering?

[proven kernel]

He does.

Or as a part of a quote.

[kindred vigil]

He does but I think that's a reference to the darkness (deep)

[shy flame]

Okay, so when did that become a mantra? In Warmind with the Xol mission?

[proven kernel]

Consumed by darkness.

[gleaming bough]

🐟

[sour cairn]

introduced with xol but "the deep" has been a name for the darkness since the books of sorrow(im p sure, mighta been earlier)

[shy flame]

I think The Deep was mentioned much earlier, like when Oryx communed with it in TTK? But when did it become about Drowning in it?

[sour cairn]

cause it sounds cool

[proven kernel]

I remember the Deep way back in D1 as well, maybe even crota.

[kindred vigil]

I think drowning is just a different way of saying "let yourself become darkness" it's just aura and hype moments

[proven kernel]

As Sophie said, book of sorrow definitely

[shy flame]

Who is sophie

[proven kernel]

Persephone

[shy flame]

@sour cairn two pretty names, props to you thats cool

Lemons is typing...

"Lemonade"

[latent gyro]

During Whisper mission he says “You. Will. Drift. In the Deeeeeep”

[sour cairn]

sophie is my actual name, persephone is my username

[proud glade]

In Whisper he does

[shy flame]

XD im so glad I got to play off that dumb pun before you could finish sending your message. Also interesting, its Drift and not Drown??

[latent gyro]

Wub is typing…

[sour cairn]

just scanned d1 vanilla, deep isnt used like that yet

[proud glade]

hold on am I misinformationing

[kindred vigil]

"just scanned" are you an robot...t.t.t.,.,.,.,.

[proven kernel]

It’s been a hot minute.

[shy flame]

There's that ishtar website

[latent gyro]

Autocorrect spelled it wrong… Wuba luba dub dub

[minor matrix]

How do we sign up for the 30 day thing

[proud glade]

It is drown

[kindred vigil]

u don't and cant

[proven kernel]

You don’t. Had to be selected for it.

[sour cairn]

nor in dark below or house, it was taken king yeahg

[proud glade]

he says “You shall drown in the deep”

[kindred vigil]

yo I'm gonna take this so I can become king...and take this crown of sorrow to the dark below!!

[shy flame]

Yknow, im so glad you mentioned this. With Borderlands 4 releasing on all current gen consoles and PC next Friday, September 12, I would like to share that my username comes from CL4P-TP teaching me what the sound i was tired of from dubstep cir. 2011

[proven kernel]

Running shorts?

[sour cairn]

[kindred vigil]

thank you Seth dickison if you wrote last word story I lov u

Rick? Maybe ...

[proven kernel]

Thank you Jake from State Farm.

[sour cairn]

bungie stopped contracting him a while ago tho and right after that happened they started retconning shit left and right funny how that turns out

[latent gyro]

It’s both

[kindred vigil]

can they retcon all of beyond light maybe

[sour cairn]

im not even wearing a shirt rn i was burning up earlier

[latent gyro]

You shall drift and you shall drown in the deep: https://youtu.be/ks9AzcXWQO4?si=P9pspwpcybmdMQ3a

[shy flame]

What's your preferred cut of sock? Im a big fan of crew and the ones that are a little under ½ way to the knee. Very comfortable and practical, especially in slacks.

[sour cairn]

no it was like 70 but long walk and sunny with dogs earlier

[shy flame]

I really liked beyond light

[proven kernel]

I’m a millennial so no show… par for the course.

[shy flame]

No show aren't terrible, but I do judge you for this. Also lmao old

[proven kernel]

Rude

[sour cairn]

can u all prove what socks u like preferably with photos of ur feet

[shy flame]

Oh, me too. I actually am loving this new Runner. I wish I could show you guys.

[proven kernel]

🤨

busts out the programming socks

[sour cairn]

i barely wear mine

[edgy forge]

Are there any bilibi leaks?

[sour cairn]

bible?

[kindred vigil]

Billibilli is Chinese YouTube for those not in the nose

[proven kernel]

Don’t ask for leaks here.

[kindred vigil]

but we will get sniped if we talk about leaks Bungie as been on execution mode for it

[shy flame]

Sent over my size 13 deformities again, looks like im about to jump into the air, idk why im stanced like that rn 😭

[sour cairn]

i was not serious

[kindred vigil]

Mario!!

[edgy forge]

Copy that. Over and out.

[sour cairn]

why are there feet in my dms

[kindred vigil]

wthelly

[latent gyro]

Please tell me you’re joking

[shy flame]

The foolish farmer opens the gate, waiting for the cattle to enter. When they obey, he shouts that they must return to graze the land. When he opens his gate, stood still, in Winter - none make this mistake. And yet he wonders why his milk is not in hand.

[obsidian plover]

I’m feeling like sheetz

Are you feeling like sheetz?

[kindred vigil]

🦗🦗...

[vale sigil]

... So like, when are more than like 5 people gonna be able to play? lol

[fervent walrus]

Play might be a while but see more of may be sooner

[vale sigil]

Yeah, I want my hands on it lol I was ultra excited for it, but the longer I don't get to try it, the less-and-less excited I am. Sort of taking the wind out of my sails haha know what I mean?

[fervent walrus]

Well then you may want to forget about it for a minute since it may be a couple months

[vale sigil]

I know I'm obviously not entitled to anything, but just a bit feels bad seeing a bunch of people (especially those that don't even play or just hate on it hardcore) playing and I'm out cold in the rain haha

[kindred vigil]

I don't get the idea

[finite python]

IIRC the lines used in the Whisper mission were reused from the Warmind campaign. I think at least half of them came from the Xol scene where he buries the Guardian in ice.

[fervent walrus]

Did you sign up back during the april alpha?

[vale sigil]

Well I didn't get that lol also, not knowing it's a thing and not playing is worse than seeing others play it and being unable to - fundamentally different...

[vale sigil]

Yes

Very helpful my friend, very helpful

I am 'sucking it up,' what I'm saying is that 'sucking it up' is causing my enthusiasm to dissipate

[latent gyro]

It was all during the same warmind season so it’s definitely possible. I recall the story not being memorable enough though all I played a ton of was whisper mission and escalation protocol back then

[kindred vigil]

Escalation protocol my goat

[fervent walrus]

Well then you jost gotta pray for an invite at thisbpoint. Make sure you didn't miss anyvin your inbox from bungie may be in spam.

[vale sigil]

No, they were Whisper specific - it is Xol, but the OG Whisper came from that time

[vale sigil]

I appreciate the empathy 🙂

[latent gyro]

And the grind for worldline zero since it was the only skating sword back then

[kindred vigil]

that grind was chill very easy

(than again I had a yt video)

[sour cairn]

all of them are lines from the warmind campaign

[finite python]

My memory was indeed correct. I did not realize it was verbatim though.
https://youtu.be/_7zfXjAV9GQ?t=1447

[latent gyro]

Was it Polaris lance then? One of the weapons took a while to grind out from EP

[finite python]

Yep

[latent gyro]

Plus EP for all of the ikelos weapons

And armor

[kindred vigil]

Still didn't get the shotty to drop ✌️💔

[sharp timber]

yo whens this game coming out

[clever bluff]

Not sure but I feel like I saw somewhere theyre gonna reveal the release date this fall. Maybe during the next State of Play?

And then id assume release date targeting Q1 2026?

Idk how ambitious these changes are gonna be

[modest tendon]

There is no concrete date as of yet.

[kindred vigil]

today

Yeah
....sorry didn't know how to say this ....

[drifting skiff]

fuck I need to reschedule my whole week because of this

[proven kernel]

What about yesterday?

[drifting skiff]

-# stop

-# don't do this to me

[dusky basin]

Anyone know how to get access to the playtest for the 30 days?

[drifting skiff]

can't

[dusky basin]

At all?

I keep seeing the whole playtest for 30 consecutive days, give feedback, etc
And idk but I wanna try it out

[proven kernel]

Liaison is correct. You have to of been selected to be apart of it, and there is no way to currently sign up for it.

[proud glade]

Is that the real savathun

[dusky basin]

Yes

[proud glade]

Ok

[dusky basin]

Dang that sucks,
Are they still sending invites to it?, I just adjusted my settings on bungie because I forget to give access to future projects and such

[proven kernel]

Not that I’m aware of, but I couldn’t tell you.

[dusty brook]

Anyone been selected for the latest playtest?

[kindred vigil]

[proud glade]

Yes, I have not been selected

[dusty brook]

oh yeah true, oops lmao

[clever bluff]

They better not let a SINGLE person from the art team leave the building

[grim fulcrum]

When are yall going to announce the new release date, 📅

[cinder timber]

probably not until they completely redesign the game so like another year or two

[muted forum]

prob after the 30 day playtest

[runic ginkgo]

Yep most likely, and i would say even a week after that

[proud glade]

Buy winrar or a cheap wine will attack you

[grim fulcrum]

💀

[gloomy osprey]

Is there any way to apply for the new closed beta thats starting on the 8th?

I have not received an email about it, but am unsure if there were any steps that need to be taken before I am eligible to receive said email

[unborn badger]

do we tell him

[latent gyro]

Nah, I’m tired of explaining to people how fiscal years work

[unborn badger]

[sour cairn]

yeah getting that angry over the singular word pronouns is fucking hilarious

i think our friend has some deep DEEP rooted insecurities

[karmic lava]

when are you they going to announce the release date btw?

[halcyon parcel]

sometime later this Fall, hopefully soon!

[edgy forge]

Could be at the end of the month. PlayStation is supposed to have another State of Play in a few weeks

Arc is coming up pretty soon. Just wait for that

[whole widget]

awe hell naw!!!!

[fathom mountain]

Dead game rest in shit bungie good job ruing everything you touch

[lyric heart]

I'll be playing both for sure but boy am I FIENDING to play Arc again.

[feral latch]

Did anybody get lucky enough to get chosen for the test-play?

[lyric heart]

Have the emails even gone out yet? I have been in every playtest so far but responded to this one kinda late

[unborn badger]

you think anyone ever told those people they're not funny

the self confidence is so high up its own ass I kinda feel bad lmao

[thick terrace]

please dont tell me marathon is delayed

[ember mountain]

Same I really do want to play marathon it was pretty fun and I can’t wait to play when it comes out same with arc I think Arc has potential to be really big

[unborn badger]

arc's great I love the postfuture vibes I'm already a massive fan of alien isolation's atmosphere and that upcoming survival horror called routine

oblivion too

gameplay I'm nowhere near suited to comment on but I'm more of a visuals guy anyway so

[feral latch]

Have you been in the play-test of marathon yet?

[glossy zodiac]

so there is no priority for who buyed it on day1? i want test it!

[lyric heart]

all of them so far

[teal pewter]

I was invited to the first, how do I get in on future playtests?

[fallen tendon]

How do i get playtest

[teal pewter]

Gotta fill out a form and get invited...

[fallen tendon]

where is the form

[teal pewter]

Don't see it anymore, it was 6 months ago

[fallen tendon]

oh

[proven kernel]

Yep, had to sign up in April to have a shot.

[feral latch]

Damn bro i just found out about marathon I didn’t know you had to sign up in april

[kindred vigil]

rev up those alphas cause I sure am hungry !!

[proven kernel]

Not a bro :), but yep. I'm sure they'll open up with a beta before launch, but that is speculation.

[wooden fjord]

Uhh okay

Looking for the link to pay $500 and leak my IP address so I can play Marathon for 30 days.

[kindred vigil]

whar

[thick terrace]

...

[wooden fjord]

SKONG

It pretty much instantly crashed Steam lmfao

75k players 5 minutes after release before servers went down

Marathon release is gonna be just like this I bet..... 😌

[kindred vigil]

ok now that's actually just dreaming

I'm all in for marathon sweep but we is NOT crashing the servers brobro ✌️😂

Wait they crashed the eshop too holy motion

[quick cypress]

sooooo

[olive oracle]

Yeah. Steam is just a tiny bit grumpy right now

😆

[quick cypress]

Septmber is here

will the game be still out or?

[olive oracle]

Hi! There has been no announcements made regarding Marathon at this time. For more information, please check out the latest announcement from the Marathon team here. #marathon-news message

[open grove]

the hell

[edgy forge]

Do you guys think Marathon will stick around longer than 3 years post release? 1 for yes, 2 for no

[open grove]

I believe.

[wispy spindle]

It was an unofficial stream that started after the marathon reveal counting down the days to marathon release

[drifting skiff]

Hittin the OwO what's this

[olive matrix]

There will always be an extraction shooter fanbase, even if its niche

[kindred vigil]

Fan made count down

[edgy forge]

I agree with that (ARC Raiders will become the new juggernaut) but I'm considerably less confident in Marathon.

[kindred vigil]

we don't care about arc raiders bruh!! We playing silk song and borderlands 4 ✌️😂

[topaz aurora]

MFW borderlands has an extraction shooter multiplayer mode

[kindred vigil]

yeah of course it will duh!

[olive matrix]

silksong is so overhyped

[edgy forge]

Silksong is so lame. The metroidvania genre is so dead at this point imo

[kindred vigil]

it'll be in the second season pass with 2 directors cut and has a mode where u extract ✌️🙄

[olive matrix]

well i wouldnt say that

[proven kernel]

that's bait

[kindred vigil]

It's bait but there's legit 5 metroidvanias releasing

[topaz aurora]

Silksong really BUGS me!!!! (Get it!?)

[proven kernel]

sitcom canned audience laughter happens

[kindred vigil]

2D games are getting more popular as retro gaming got popular in 2020 and made people realize 2d games are pretty fun

man ts bait I'm wasting my resources on this

[edgy forge]

There's 5 numetal albums releasing this year too but the genre fizzled by 1998

[kindred vigil]

whatever that means @ oldheads

[frigid field]

ello

[proven kernel]

Hi!

[kindred vigil]

I should pick up Pokemon go again...

[topaz aurora]

I been thinking about that too

I just don’t like being geolocated but my phone does that without asking anyway

[frigid field]

guess no more signups for now

[wooden fjord]

Play PokéMMO instead like a respectable Pokémon fan

[kindred vigil]

I'm no pokemon fan!!! And I already played that game that game blows

[wooden fjord]

Did someone say something

I have haters #muted

[drifting skiff]

how can a genre be dead it's literally just a concept

it's like saying funk is dead it's not fuckin dead people just do it less

god fobid a niche not be mainstream

"metroidvania is a dead genre" that tautologically isn't true as silksong is coming out literally today

[wooden fjord]

Disco Didn't Die it Was Murdered

You just got baited I think

[drifting skiff]

I wanna watch psych again

[drifting skiff]

I mean like generally it's a thing people think and it's stupid

[wooden fjord]

I'm glad someone got that reference, I'm currently rewatching

[drifting skiff]

like "wow is warhammer dying????" no it fuckin isn't you goblin

[wooden fjord]

Also yeah people are annoying like that, if it's not mega popular it's dead and dying and nobody should bother playing

[drifting skiff]

yeah like it's moving in a different direction and 10th edition kinda sucks but like it's not dying they literally keep making more money

warhammer is a money printer and all this panic over "omg it's DYING because people I PERSONALLY KNOW are switching to other games!"

[wooden fjord]

Also Warhammer is arguably more popular than it's ever been with all of the video games and media coming out recently

[drifting skiff]

exactly

god I hope 11th doesn't suck I have so many minis for 40k and I can't be assed to actually play

[upper storm]

yeah 10th edition is where i started taking the idea of playing and building armies seriously. at first i liked all the cleanup and simplification since the rules for 9th read like gibberish to me. but now i'm realizing how much depth was lost

"free" wargear is a bad idea that would have made some sense a decade ago when easy to use army builder apps weren't utterly ubiquitous

[proud glade]

im on vacation
someone put a colossal shank in the pipes
the bathroom is flooding

[edgy forge]

A genre can be dead because the concept is no longer vital to the masses. Disco, swing music, grunge...these are both concepts and dead music genres. The Metroidvania was vital in the 90s. Now it's just boomer chum

[sour cairn]

i love how u say that right before hollow knight silksong releases which is one of the most widely anticipated releases in years

[upper storm]

i hate, have hated, and will continue to hate the notion that something is "dead" because it no longer has mass appeal and isn't The Thing everyone is talking about.

[edgy forge]

Boomer chum

[sour cairn]

you have bad bait

[kindred vigil]

My phone's burning !!!!!!

[undone temple]

[edgy forge]

The reason why we're here is because the Extraction genre is relatively nascent and is being built in real-time. The Metroidvania genre hasn't meaningfully progressed in decades. Hollow Knight plays like every other game in thw genre with a slick coat of paint over top

[kindred vigil]

Lol dead game 😂

[proud glade]

metroid is good

[kindred vigil]

past my rage bait exists a lover that hopes for people to like whatever genre they love #hopecore

[upper storm]

people are already calling trench crusade dead because it has receeded to a completely normal average level of activity and engagement for a tabletop wargame instead of competing with 40k in the attention algorithm like it was 6 months ago

mfs legit dont know how to enjoy 2 things at once

[kindred vigil]

The social stigma of having to like the "current peak" title has made people feel they gotta move on monthly from something

[sour cairn]

i remember the trench crusade blowup cause right wingers tried to coopt it and got shut down

[kindred vigil]

It's in the same vain how people say this game is dead and it's a singular player title

[edgy forge]

Super Metroid on the SNES was awesome.

[undone temple]

Uhhh i'm new here.

[kindred vigil]

Hi new here

[undone temple]

It's Horstron.

[proud glade]

all of the metroids were good
except for 2 (remake and original) and other M
they don’t exist

[kindred vigil]

ohhhh like Tim Hortons ok

[undone temple]

Mmm nice name xd

[upper storm]

actually i disagree. this guy is one of the top 5 baiters I've ever run into im the wild. he has a consistently polite and reasonable tone and has just enough good or at least respectable opinions and arguments that you're constantly on the knife's edge of whether or not he's baiting. it's honestly kind of artful

[kindred vigil]

federation force forgot PEAK ✌️😂

[edgy forge]

How you know about Tim Hortons?! I come from a city where there's a Tim Hortons every 30 ft

[kindred vigil]

I have an Canadian friend

and have met plenty of Canadians over my life

even if it's not bait it's just weird takes that feel like they're ignoring what's being said

[kindred vigil]

U don't say sup to me, you say hello.

[drifting skiff]

hitting the "These events were wrong then and are wrong now" beat

[edgy forge]

Not sure that's really controversial. Modern culture has universally taught that (unless you're talking about human trafficking which everyone ignores for some reason)

it was a joke

my controversial opinion is that opinions MIGHT be unique to the individual person. 🤔....thoughts below!:

controversial opinion: woofwoofwrruffarfarf im a lil puppy

[upper storm]

it's crazy to me cus I've literally never been into The Biggest Event for anything, music, games, tv, whatever, I've always had extremely niche tastes and interests, often having to engage with them alone. these people who fall apart if there isn't a 24-hour news and content cycle for their interests are insane

[drifting skiff]

my paws are big and soft give me 50,000 dollars

[drifting skiff]

even weirder imo when someone gets into a niche thing then something falls slightly into being more niche and the same freakout happens

like where do you think you are rn

[upper storm]

"guys is War and Peace dead? my post about it on r/books only got 10 replies"

at the end of the day it all comes back to the root cause of many bizarre online behaviors. people love being able to tell other people that they're wrong. if your game is dead then you must be wrong for playing it

[kindred vigil]

well of course I'm better because MY game has 30k players concurrent right now because it JUST released while your game for 9 years is DEAD

And also steamdb is a good way to show that YOUR game is dead ✌️

[drifting skiff]

I'm kinda constantly shocked that Dota 2 is still going as hard as it is

There was an interesting Twitter thread from Jacob Navok about games being more like social media platforms than people realize. I think he refers to the concept as Metcalfs Law where the value of a game (or SM platform) increases as it grabs more users. There's something to being part of a large cultural force

[kindred vigil]

u said 2 things i don't even understand which I think may prove ur point idk like who the hell is Metcalf.😂✌️

[neon kayak]

hi yall im a little confused on the factions can someone explain them?

[solid mountain]

A faction is a smaller, organized group within a larger whole (like a society, organization, political party, or community) that shares a common interest, goal, or belief that may differ from or even oppose the rest.

[sour cairn]

arfarfffwruffffff paws at u paws at u injects estradiol valerate into your intramuscular thigh definition

[kindred vigil]

owah!!!

[edgy forge]

Metcalfs Law is the idea that a platforms value (game?) increases as it acquires more users.

Having a small 12 person camp in the forest offers people a degree of safety. Having a city with 10,000 people along a river offers a greater degree of safety / value

[kindred vigil]

go to lore chat and type factions someone has written a long ass overview or sum

[neon kayak]

thank you

[kindred vigil]

I can't explain I'm on 1%...💔✌️

The New California Republic is a democratic republic that seeks to replicate the politics and economics of pre-war America. They're expansionist and while they do generally try to incorporate territory peacefully, they are known to annex communities forcefully or through underhanded means if they deem it necessary.

Caesar's Legion is a fascist slaver empire led by Edward Sallow, a former Follower of the Apocalypse turned self-styled dictator. Basing its culture around the lore and aesthetics of imperial Rome, the Legion has no regard for human life or dignity and seeks to solidify its power through conquest, enslavement, and torture.

Mr. House is a billionaire and inventor who has managed to stay alive in a life support pod for the past 250 years. He doesn't interact with the public directly and seems mostly interested in keeping the Strip open for business, although he has lofty ideals of advancing humanity under his invisible hand.

[wooden fjord]

You guys are nerds

Warhammer is so cool I love the universe

that's the state of IG rn in large part

sons of horus paint scheme goes hard

[edgy forge]

More of an economics law

[drifting skiff]

ah so made up wibblewobble

[drifting skiff]

come to horus heresy I beg of you

[sour cairn]

green🤤

[upper storm]

the only economics laws i fw are the labor theory of value, money-commodity-money transactions and the rate of exploitation 💯

[sour cairn]

value of a game going up with playerbase really only holds true for major "platform" titles like roblox and fortnite

[edgy forge]

Economics is just made up wabble gobble lol

[sour cairn]

every other game does not care

[drifting skiff]

that's what I just said why cite it

[kindred vigil]

Wobbly wiggly wobbly wiggly woooooo

[kindred vigil]

can u stop using laws and acronyms and shit like that and say wtf ur trying to get ur point across I hate googling everytime.u type

[sour cairn]

my favorite law is the law of transgenderism

[drifting skiff]

the law is just "more people is good haha :)"

[sour cairn]

why tf is transgenderism a real word thats actually fucked

[drifting skiff]

the law is you must transition or be executed for crimes of cisness

[kindred vigil]

I'm dumb so dumb it down for me twins !!

[sour cairn]

cissies must be punished

[edgy forge]

Wouldn't pass an Economics 101 course at a community college with that answer

[drifting skiff]

I've taken econ courses I have a college degree tf, I can still call econ stupid

[sour cairn]

you can pass an econ 101 course by just saying the word crypto over and over its fuckin econ

[upper storm]

theoretically i could but all my shits converted to work in 40k so it would get a lil goofy

like my solar auxilia got plasmas and meltas and 1 sergeants per 10, my russes got internal sponsons, my malcador a crackhead he got meltas and a coaxial autocannon

[kindred vigil]

I have no major but I think every major is stupid ??? Just a thought...

[drifting skiff]

I also had to tutor business majors on their classes because they struggled with basic math

[sour cairn]

many such cases

[kindred vigil]

that's a lot of cases.....,.,,.,.,.,

[drifting skiff]

and taught them how to code in R, a language I didn't know.

[edgy forge]

The value of a platform increases the more people that are in it. So you might prefer game A to game B but if game B is significantly bigger, it might not matter. People are social creatures

[sour cairn]

like where u store bills... econ 103 passed...

[drifting skiff]

imperial militia :)

[kindred vigil]

oh ok I get it now

I think we use the word "popular" for that but yeah type shit

[edgy forge]

But your answer still wouldn't be correct

[upper storm]

True...although gw being gw flip a coin to find out if that's in 4th edition

then again it's also 30k so nobody will care lol

[drifting skiff]

I'm not answering a paper I'm calling economics stupid how hard is that to understand

[kindred vigil]

begging on her knees to be populuah....that's h...er dream to be populyah.....

[drifting skiff]

it's been in every edition so far lmao

[edgy forge]

Not hard just...wrong

[drifting skiff]

dumbed down so you can't understand it because it's not the words coming out of your mouth

[kindred vigil]

just like how I think !!

[upper storm]

right, just saying we all know GW have been on the warpath of no models no rules and HH clearly isn't an exception with what happened in the new launch

[drifting skiff]

nah it's just in Pdf form, they keep those around typically

[sour cairn]

im having blueberry pancakes this morning

[upper storm]

but again it's 30k and it seems like that community is more chill with custom rules and doing whatever so it could be chill

[kindred vigil]

yummers

[drifting skiff]

plus like.... horus heresy players are not above playing old editions

[upper storm]

god why can't the 40k community be cool

[drifting skiff]

panoptica rocks

[kindred vigil]

Pancake w what tho....

[kindred vigil]

Warhammer is a sci-fi right ? or a grim dark fantasy ?

[drifting skiff]

blueberries she just said

[sour cairn]

egg

[obsidian plover]

Lawn

[drifting skiff]

because AoS takes all the cool players

[upper storm]

dystopian science fantasy

[kindred vigil]

well there's ur answer !!!

[drifting skiff]

it's one of the foundational works in the grimdark genre

[kindred vigil]

anything with "fantasy" or "science" has uncool losers look at destiny twouah

[upper storm]

don't bait me into starting a skaven army too

[drifting skiff]

do it!

[upper storm]

😭

[drifting skiff]

Neeyth you can keep the :3 it's okay

[upper storm]

hot take grimdark as a term doesn't mean anything and its annoying how people insist more grimdark = more good while non stop debating the exact definition

[kindred vigil]

Grimdark is when the stuff is ..dark

[drifting skiff]

idk about the whole more grim = more good but they have broad definitions(?) it's usually world that's brutal and abysmal and there's not a good guy (though often there's a bad and a much worse) and people die pretty readily

[proven kernel]

I believe and support you!

[drifting skiff]

it also feels like it tends to involve a removal of humanity to some degree. Like Dune wouldn't count as the people actually have hearts lmao

[upper storm]

that's valid but then I'd also say 40k has probably never really been like that

or at least, it has had large swathes of its lore that aren't like that, for almost as long as it's been around

at least in terms of being totally hopeless and having no good guys or any sense of humanity or morality

[kindred vigil]

so is it not edgy and everyone dies and says the F word

[upper storm]

reading guant's ghosts and realizing the series started in 1999 will obliterate your entire conceptualization of 40k and render 90% of the remaining lore impossible to take seriously

[kindred vigil]

Is that good or...

[upper storm]

it's good (Gaunt's Ghosts is a really good series with great characters and engrossing worldbuilding) but also bad (90% of 40k lore is way more over the top stupid and pointlessly depressing in comparison)

[kindred vigil]

oh ok so it's like what destiny witch queen is to lightfall

I still can't believe how good of a campaign witch queen is holy moly

[upper storm]

Gaunt's Ghosts is what you get when someone sits down and makes a story that's like, a "reasonable" and "mature" take on 40k as a setting

[kindred vigil]

I lwk prefer it over final shape

[sour cairn]

sandbox

wq sandbox was much better than tfs #imo

[kindred vigil]

it was more healthy that's for sure lol

[drifting skiff]

it doesn't have good guys... individuals may have morality but it all serves a wider empire devoid of that heart

[kindred vigil]

I think tfs sandbox was fine but I think the peak sandbox is 30th anniversary

[sour cairn]

tfs sandbox was fine but outside of salvations edge day 1, combat difficulty didnt really exist

good sandbox but it didnt lend itself well to -15

[kindred vigil]

thank u red death!!

[sour cairn]

i blame resilience mostly

[kindred vigil]

thank u resilience !!

[upper storm]

yeah it depends what scope you're talking about. like even in GG the imperium obviously sucks. but there are plenty of stories in 40k that show small victories and everyday acts of decency working out fine even in the face of imperial bullshit

[drifting skiff]

yeah and the entire setting being grimdark adds to how pointless all of that is

like the whole point is that it's this pointless drudge towards the abyss. There's moments of good, but overall the system is fucked beyond saving

and frankly the only reason those moments get focused on as much as they do is because it sucks reading just cruel drudge constantly so they need to frame it like a story that's actually interesting and makes you feel a little good

she-ra fits into the grim portion of the worldbuilding but deviates by not leaning into the dark, the heroes are actually able to do something despite the universe being so strongly pitted against them

[vestal cedar]

I get a little bit sad knowing that there is people playing the game for the next 30 days

[fervent walrus]

Hopefully we'll all be there someday

[edgy forge]

How many of y'all are getting both Marathon and ARC Raiders?

[kindred vigil]

1. Person . Singular.

[edgy forge]

Only one person? Wow.

[kindred vigil]

Every game....post silk song...will now sell only...1...copy....

[gilded perch]

Silksong is better than marathon

[kindred vigil]

that's not really a hot take but go off twin

[fervent walrus]

Apples to oranges

[gilded perch]

[crude bronze]

Only one person bought silk song and only one person is gonna buy marathon so ....... Is one really better?

I wasn't either. I guess it had a unique tone and it played pretty smoothly but I played that game a million times before. Music and polish didn't pull me through.

nah it's always ok to just not like a game

[tawdry olive]

im on some list now, thx fren

[kindred vigil]

We're both in this together

[tawdry olive]

hold me, lover 🫂

[wispy spindle]

also how come a bunch of my messages were deleted?

[kindred vigil]

now u ruined it again I hate u again

[tawdry olive]

at least they delet and not outright mute u for a whole freaking day

sry im just bitter

[kindred vigil]

like dark chocolate

[kindred vigil]

Someone probably booted u

[wispy spindle]

but what about them flagged anything? I said something about tariffs here, and in the CyAc chat I sent a message on my terminal and both were deleted

[tawdry olive]

maybe politic is not allowed here

idk

[kindred vigil]

with the amount of times we've gotten political Imcnot sure if it's that

[proud glade]

they just murder recent messages

[wispy spindle]

someone else brought it up and it was not political. weird.

[tawdry olive]

i doubt it butane, but i think there might be a mod here that works in the shadow

[wispy spindle]

what is political about terminal posting though?

[tawdry olive]

idk, tariff might be tho

personally i dont think anything should be delet. Let all bare witness to knowledge and opinion

[wispy spindle]

but other messages are still present? I don't know. I am just baffled really.

[kindred vigil]

oh well it happens ggs

[tawdry olive]

im telling u, we have a ninja mod that doesnt interact with chat, just gets on once in a while and deletes arbitrarily with impunity

[wispy spindle]

its not a big deal just curious why they wouldn't also say why they got deleted. oh well.

I could give a damn about money. I just want the code

Sony's current outlook on Bungie and how Marathon got delayed before the fiscal earnings call that said Bungie's freedom is running out

[fervent walrus]

Toes who nose

[wind saffron]

I was going to ask about this

[kindred vigil]

oh ok yeah true

[vocal sandal]

My guess is they'll have an open alpha/beta to get feedback again before Bungie is fully absorbed

[wooden fjord]

Is Neeyth chatting? I have everyone blocked that is funnier than me

[wind saffron]

Open alpha/beta would be so good. Battlefield style. Just let us in Bungie! You need a WINNING game

Jesus Christ bro I just stepped down mine to 600 from 800. How the fuck are you handling 2048. That's like a meme number.

[obsidian plover]

I've worked down.

It's tiny movements. I also have a bigger screen. (49" ultrawide) so the focal point is narrow, but lots of side vision antics.

[kindred vigil]

That's why ur username was 2400 😱😱😱😱‼️‼️‼️

[tame nacelle]

....is your mouse heavy to compensate?

[obsidian plover]

No.

Trackball. Make even smaller movements. I could prob bench press @tawdry olive mum with just my thumb though.

[tame nacelle]

Plooby trackball?

[obsidian plover]

Like it, but not it, yes.

[tame nacelle]

Wow. My friends got a trackball fetish and I genuinely was curious how it'd fair considering my current aimlab fixation.

neeyth is lonely, lets invite neeythypoo

[tame nacelle]

That weird adventure game where you were a dead ghost and had to solve puzzles to gain power to gain sentience so you could impact the environment to solve your murder or ressurect idk I never beat it

[kindred vigil]

ghost trick detective type shit

[tame nacelle]

Basically yeah

[obsidian plover]

How many times should I run thru Fitbeat tomorrow?

[wooden fjord]

The Dead Case?

[tawdry olive]

chat, can i has a hugg

[obsidian plover]

Wait, how many times can someone run Fitbeat in a day?

[tame nacelle]

Biiingo

[obsidian plover]

Time to do math.

[wooden fjord]

I think that's what it was called, I played a similar game

[tawdry olive]

i gib hug 🫂

[wooden fjord]

Oh yippie

[obsidian plover]

Oh you only want hugs from me after dark, I getchu.

OK so.

[tawdry olive]

no, no change subject

[tame nacelle]

Yeah let's just stew in this. Breath it in

[obsidian plover]

So if fitbeat is 1 min 52 seconds long...

[tawdry olive]

we must endure the awkward silence

[tame nacelle]

We are old.

[obsidian plover]

It prob takes 10 to 20 seconds to start a new beatsaber level

[kindred vigil]

who's we

[obsidian plover]

soooo that means

[tawdry olive]

mostly u neeyth

[obsidian plover]

Bro you are easily 60 years old

[kindred vigil]

the old heads are projecting their ages on me...💔 I'm in enemy land

[tame nacelle]

Well apparently Fiona is 29 in tales from the Borderlands. V is 27 from 2077. So not THAT old.

[tawdry olive]

who here older den 40

[proven kernel]

27 is like hyper old

[tame nacelle]

HOWDAREYOU.WAV

[kindred vigil]

27 u basically almost ,30 ✌️😂‼️

[proven kernel]

I would know I’m 37

[tawdry olive]

i love older women

[tame nacelle]

I'm imagining you boiled in a volcano as a sacrifice to the gods

[kindred vigil]

that's a gross thing to say in that context

[obsidian plover]

OK so theoretically.
If you were to start exactly at midnight, you could run Fitbeat in beatsaber around 410 times in 1 day. Provided you never stopped for any reason at all, and used a 20 second window to start each round.

Sooo chat. Am I going to do this and try to post a W vid?

[latent gyro]

Someone doesn’t understand how math works but it’s okay

[tawdry olive]

y? it compliment

[kindred vigil]

no bro if ur 40 ur practically 60

[obsidian plover]

sooooo close

[obsidian plover]

But you are 60. Deflection???

[tame nacelle]

If ur 2 u r basically dead. Basically life's over for u

[kindred vigil]

oh fuck..,.,.,.,.

[obsidian plover]

Savage pulldowns.

NGL. I'm prob too out of shape to endure FitBeat for 24 hours consecutively, and to get at least 410 rounds in.

Thinking about it, sounds like a nightmare. LIke full stop.

[tawdry olive]

i juss wanted a e-hug 😭

[obsidian plover]

You only pay attention to me after dark.

[tawdry olive]

Marathon truly is the friends we made along the way

Bungie, export this servers chat log and put it as a scrolling text in game.

[obsidian plover]

[icy rain]

it was people who played during the first, they are the only ones with a chance, and now im pretty sure they have their people to test it

[quartz knot]

this chat ran 100 miles but still got one to go

[obsidian plover]

I speak English

Almost like we in a

[crude swan]

MARATHON/TAU CETI IV/ESCAPE WILL MAKE ME GOD

ok im starting to just overuse the sentence lol tbh

[fervent walrus]

Nah goes hard every time.

[crude swan]

Fr

The entire marathon lore is basically like a sci-fi epic show with filosofy topics

that’s why it’s so fire tbh

[quartz knot]

worst case like a year from now itll be Marathon : Rising

[fervent walrus]

Good story covered with beautiful art direction

Bungie never misses there

[quartz knot]

netease actually fried bungie on this one

[crude swan]

The lore, motivations and philosophy and behavior of Durandal>almost any other AI in a piece of fiction

[fervent walrus]

So rising is good?

[quartz knot]

its actually suprisingly good

[fervent walrus]

Fact checked by real patriots

[quartz knot]

maybe people glaze it harder cuz they just desperate with how bad bungie has ran D2 into the ground this year but its solid

[fervent walrus]

Hows microtransactions that seems real finnicky with netease

[quartz knot]

you dont have to spend money to play the game

but its a gacha so like you most likely will want to

[fervent walrus]

Thats no assuring 😭
Look at gaijin 🐌

[crude swan]

I actually think Durandal deserves his freedom, he entered in a state of rampancy and then decided to trascent mortality and become immortal, he truly deserves his fre-GETS SHOT 3 TIMES IN THE SKULL BY A UESC AGENT

[crude swan]

Sekgen is the goat

[fervent walrus]

Yes but they don't have muxh in common with durandal no?

[crude swan]

Maybe

But you know what Sekgen does have a lot in common with?

[fervent walrus]

Honeatly i could see durandal wanting some relatuons with sekgen just so he can get a body or something

[crude swan]

BROO DURANDAL AS AN ANDROID WOULD GO HARD

Like it would be so cool if he was the super wise AI embodiment

[fervent walrus]

I doubt he can stay in one shell for long periods of time though

[fervent walrus]

Give him a red spht cloak like master chief hoodie

[crude swan]

Bungie do this right now

or im gonna send an army of Sekgen worms to your offices

[icy rain]

im sorry 🫂

[crude swan]

I actually think the SekGen worms look more like Caterpillars than simple worms

[icy rain]

i think the sekgen worms are cool because traxus makes them 😛

[kindred vigil]

Is that true lore

[icy rain]

i think so

[kindred vigil]

traxus wins again

[icy rain]

we always win, we built the finish line

[proud glade]

Ok but I am a furry

[kindred vigil]

What's gonna happen when we get renamed

[icy rain]

i wont let that happen

[kindred vigil]

whatever the new traxus is I will be the king
