covering leaks and spreading misinfo and all that

but then bungie would be suing a LOT of news outlets alongside too

[proven kernel]

Please don’t discuss leaks in here. Even if it has been posted to an article somewhere. Thanks!

[mortal plume]

Y’all flirting w danger talking about this still lmao

[unborn badger]

told y'all we treading thin fucking ice 💀 💀

like if you're gonna chat about it at least don't do it here

[cursive perch]

It was from an article that stated the info was given to them by Bungie themselves???

[proven kernel]

I’m aware of when Bungie releases info and when they don’t. They have not released info.

[cursive perch]

So the article guys were liars?

[proven kernel]

No idea. Regardless. No talkie.

[cursive perch]

Sure. But someone isnt telling the truth here

[unborn badger]

it's a leak-based article what do you expect lol

[tepid bane]

I'm sure Bungie will release details in due time.

[tawdry olive]

if bungo didnt make a booboo months ago, would we all be playing rn?

[wispy spindle]

I hope not, the delay was a net positive

[tawdry olive]

let me rephrase the question to inhibit personal takeaways that obscure the point of the question:

When was the original planned release date for dis game?

[wooden fjord]

September 23rd

So no, we'd be waiting a couple more weeks

[tawdry olive]

i thank u for ur wisdom and foresight into the matter

[wooden fjord]

Will likely be getting a lot more "where's the game?????" spam around that time

80$ for mario galaxy 1 and 2 in the big 25 is insane

[nimble wyvern]

Wait it's 80?!

[sour cairn]

they're 40$ individually yes

at this point just emulate

[nimble wyvern]

Have both on my steam deck AND I have 3D All Stars. Think im good

Only things other than that that I was excited about were the MP4 release date, and the RE9 announcement for the system

[hearty sail]

Marathon wasn't at Nintendo Direct, dead game basically

[kindred vigil]

70$ (total) for a probably emulated game just with a widescreen patch is crazy

oh well Nintendo fans will buy anything as long it's portable tho

[tame nacelle]

I have a friend who doesn't understand their steam deck is not a black box where they can only run steam games native. Said friend did not know it ran Linux. Nor has figured out installing retroarch.

[cursive perch]

tell said friend to invest into a PC, and also I was looking for a device to stream my games on that I play w a controller (D4/POE2) when Im 4:00am in bed theorycrafting off-meta builds so you gave me an idea for a purchase

YO, Marathon w controller WILL HARDSLAP

Actually, Bungie, if you're here - I'm willing to play your game for 30 days (more like 28 by now) dedicatedly w a controller for testing sooo.... I'm here, just saying, ..my email is waiting.... hint hint wink wink

[fiery trench]

The steam deck is a PC.

[cursive perch]

An ass one, for sure

[wooden fjord]

It's always so funny meeting people that have zero clue about emulation, especially when they have devices that are basically made for it

[cursive perch]

But it can stream your PC at a tiny latency cost

[shy flame]

What were the little ticks called in the alpha i forgor

[wooden fjord]

Ticks

Where do you think they got all the tick milk from

[proven kernel]

you know the fact tick milk exists brings up questions I'm afraid to learn the answers of.

[wooden fjord]

We milk ticks in real life! It has unique properties that we are studying

[tame nacelle]

Are you brain dead?

[tame nacelle]

What's crazy is this friend is a huge retro gamer. Of all the people to not have a retroarch install it blew my mind. They play so many old games who's names most people don't even know.

[crude bronze]

ELABORATE

That's so interesting you can't stop there

[wooden fjord]

Yeah there are two sides to the retro gaming community haha

[cursive perch]

you think it can match a 9950X3D + 5080FE + 96GB RAM + 2x4TB NVME ? clown

[sour cairn]

im not clown im a jester

rubs my large belly

[wooden fjord]

I'm just going to assume this is some weird in-joke between you two that I'm not aware of

[tame nacelle]

Imagine thinking a modest PC is ass because a two? Thousand dollar one simply exists. Hey your car sucks, why? Because the military has a fucking UFO. Lmao

[cursive perch]

Do you own a Steamdeck ?

[tame nacelle]

What would two face do at the retro games expo.

[wooden fjord]

Oh, it's not a quirky in-joke. Ruh roh.

[obsidian plover]

Ps5 beats a modest pc tho.

Soooooo. Not saying it's ass. But it's ass.

[wooden fjord]

@cursive perch a Steam Deck is not a replacement for a $4000 PC setup. It's just a portable handheld to play lighter games on

[cursive perch]

or stream your $4000 PC on

[wooden fjord]

I mean, you could if you wanted to, sure

[cursive perch]

Its objectively better to stream the same game instead of playing native if your PC is $4000

you will max out the steamdecks fps in any game

display hz*

[wooden fjord]

I like gaming handhelds because I go outdoors a lot and it's nice to play things while in a hammock or out camping

Not really sure what you're trying to argue or upset about though

[cursive perch]

the thing is these things get outdated at lightning speeds, your PC on the other hand is upgradable

[wooden fjord]

It costs less to get a new gaming handheld than upgrading a GPU

[cursive perch]

is the Steamdeck the only handheld that has streaming capabilities ? I dont know

[obsidian plover]

For how much

[wooden fjord]

No, there's hundreds

Gaming handhelds range anywhere from $50 to $2,000

[obsidian plover]

I just bought a motherboard and cpu for a project. It's modest, that was $500. The ram was another $400.

[wooden fjord]

98% of them are cheaper than new PC upgrades

[cursive perch]

or you could just run GeForceNow on your Steamdeck

[obsidian plover]

Not counting the GPU. Which I got two used 3090Tis for.

[cursive perch]

but you are upgrading* two pieces of hardware at the same time

[wooden fjord]

I'm so confused if you're arguing for or against Steam Deck

[obsidian plover]

You always have to upgrade the cpu and motherboard if moderinizing, you also are likely going to have to bump ram too.

[cursive perch]

I'm arguing streaming on handhelds is better than playing native

[obsidian plover]

and if it's DDR5, it's stupid. Because using more than 2 sticks of DDR ram is dumb. It doesn't work right.

Which means you are now paying more for 2 sticks, because the ram is monolithic.

[cursive perch]

I am with 2 sticks and 96GB DDR5

idk how much more you need

[obsidian plover]

Ya and it cost more that it would have if you were able to distribute it across 4.

But NOoOOOoOo. DDR5 sucks.

[cursive perch]

I cant distribute it across 4 anyhow, because I have a 15L case and no motherboard with 4 slots fits in it

and 128GB has lower speeds and nearly no headroom/impossible to OC

but you are correct - the next big jump will be Zen7 AM6 DDR6

which will be in 2.5/3 years

[obsidian plover]

Doesn't matter, becuase 4 sticks of DD5 doesn't work right, even today.

[stark mural]

What kind of OCs are you chasing and why did you go with M-Die over A-Die for overclocking ?

[cursive perch]

aim was capacity not OC. 32GB is still the king for OC on DDR5

[obsidian plover]

The need is theoretical. It depends on the point. My desktop has 36. My server has over 512GB.

My business machines are 2TB.

(Yes. Ram.)

[cursive perch]

your desktop isnt mirror-sticks ?

isnt that bad ?

[stark mural]

What about the OCs ? Why M-Die ?

[obsidian plover]

and even at todays densities, 32GB ram is sufficient for most people.
bus speeds are fast, storage is fast, and there's swapping for when it isn't.

[obsidian plover]

No. It's monolithic.

I use a mac studio M4 Max as a desktop. So it is what it is.

[cursive perch]

32GB is sufficient for a gaming rig, but have to shut down your 50+ tabs Chrome

Even when I turn up everything, all softwares I use on a daily I barelly peak over 64GB

64GB would've been fine, maybe minor inconvenience rarely

[cursive perch]

I dont know about this. A friend tuned my PC

[stark mural]

Gotcha.

[cursive perch]

I can ask

[stark mural]

No need. I know more than him.

🤪

[cursive perch]

He is #16 Worldwide Hall of Fame Leaderboard CPU score on 3DMark

he does liquid nitrogen too

[stark mural]

So do i whats his name ?

Is he on hwbot ?

[cursive perch]

probably idk

he keeps pushing me to go direct-die

on 9950X3D

[stark mural]

Thats pretty cool.

[cursive perch]

😂 and liquid metal

[stark mural]

Well you have to going direct die

[cursive perch]

but I dont want to short anything

I slapped a KryoSheet so dont have to worry about re-applying paste

[stark mural]

Maybe phase change or something for long term or kryo

[obsidian plover]

Prob a local spot

Pep n sausage n cheese

[cursive perch]

I ordered a pepperoni with extra pepperoni

[obsidian plover]

I did that the other day

Cupped pepperoni or flat???

[cursive perch]

there's a joke between me and my friends

[agile mason]

can you get me a side of pepperoni as well?

[cursive perch]

one time I was so high that I ordered pepperoni without pepperoni and the pizza place had to call me to double confirm

and I confirmed

was like a decade ago tho

pepperoni without pepperoni

[shy flame]

Guys i want to break my diet so bad :(((

I really really want to go to Kohl's for clothes and then pick up my pizza of the month, but like. Self control so hard and I have a salad I still need to finish

[cursive perch]

what will the pizza give you?

[shy flame]

Joy

[cursive perch]

momentary indulgence...

and what's the trade ?

idk you can do math, just choose for youself

[shy flame]

Pizza of the month

"Fajitas On The Beach

mateo's queso, mexican rice, mozzarella, fire-roasted chicken, fajita veggies, creamy cilantro lime sauce"

[cursive perch]

that's a pizza ? ?? ?

[shy flame]

Yesssss

[cursive perch]

pizza with rice should be jail time

or cilantro

bro, listen

[shy flame]

I love this place, i have a pizza of the month club membership. $80/yr, includes 1 large pizza of the month or employee creation of the month, 1 free t shirt, and free appetizers every couple of months or so. When the pizzas are $11/ea its a steal

[cursive perch]

We are free to do whatever we want, be are not free from the consequences

[shy flame]

Maybe i get the pizza now, eat a couple slices then I freeze the rest for when my (he says "ex") boyfriend gets out of rehab

[cursive perch]

your gonna feed him frozen pizza ????

ex might be valid

😂

[shy flame]

You can reheat it

[cursive perch]

but then it's RE-heated maaaaanne... 😕

[shy flame]

How do you think they make frozen pizza

Also the rice is not cooked into the pizza, it is a side to be added after bake. So I will make him fresh mexirice to add after he gets out.

I'm also going to try making cacio e pepe for when he gets out. Something I've been wanting to learn

[proud glade]

idk i havent looked at it at all

[cursive perch]

no, its for the sauce, just a dash is enough

[wooden fjord]

Indifferent, plenty of other games to play and the network test wasn't super captivating to make me that interested

[misty garnet]

I was interested in it personally, I thought the sound desing was superb

I love me some crisp audio

[vapid valve]

the finals was so boring I think arc raiders will be similar

[misty garnet]

Agree to disagree I guess

Though I tell you im glad theyre working on the solo queing, that was a miserable experience sometimes

Alot of good games dropping in and out this next year though

[vapid valve]

Crimson Desert 😋

[proven kernel]

Ugh

[karmic sable]

Im not saying Arc is bad, but it being a third person was an immediate turn off for me

[misty garnet]

I mean thats valid. Third person can be really tough to design for shooters.

Mainly for peaking

[karmic sable]

Personally I like my FPS Action games on First Person perspective

Besides Looter Shooters like Destiny, The Division etc, I am fine with those being third person

[misty garnet]

I mean i fw both tbh

Also valid for Division mention

Man those games are good. Some of Ubisofts best work

[proven kernel]

Ok, that’s better… how’s everyone’s afternoon?

[agile mason]

it’s been great. it was cloudy in the morning which was a nice change

[karmic sable]

Which is why I also prefer Marathon more over Arc, because I like how Bungie does animations on First Person and not feeling like a drone following my character

[misty garnet]

Im alright. At a Christian music festival with my sister. Musics decent, but man sitting in the sun aint fun

[shy flame]

Mega man star force legacy collection announced let's gooo ( we are never getting a new X game)

[misty garnet]

Dmc community has been upset about not getting new games but I think Mega Man honestly has it worse

[karmic sable]

Sure, the animation quality of what Bungie does is NOWHERE near what Activision and its studios can provide, but Bungie still does good animations

[proven kernel]

Can’t believe we’re getting silksong and hades 2 this month.

I actually would love to try out Borderlands 4….. if it wasn’t 70$

Honestly I love the art direction for Marathon. It just has a really unique vibe to it that doesnt feel over cartoony like like alot of games go for

I’ll tell you how it is later… haven’t started it yet lol.

Also the blocky weapons and interiors, just a neat vibe

But I am stoked for 4. Heard its really good after the day one patch

[obsidian plover]

idk

[misty garnet]

And honestly its nice to see a game have an emphasis on offline split screen in this day and age

[obsidian plover]

I can just go and call 3 friends, and we can go to taco bell. It's bascially the same thing as borderlands, And I got firesauce.

Plus spending a lot less than $70. So I'm very skeptical.

[misty garnet]

Plus it sounds like Claptrap got his og actor back (no disrespect to the guy from 3)

If you're looking for cheap games, I find it my personal goal to tell people to try deltarune

[obsidian plover]

o.O

[shy flame]

Hold off. It is very fun but performance is bad. Im on a rtx 4060, Ryzen 7 8700F, 16GB Ram. I get avg 40fps on medium graphics 1080p. And ive only done the first 2 missions so like not a lot of enemy density.

[shy flame]

I dont think he did? I think the VA is just doing better?

[obsidian plover]

trash

[misty garnet]

Maybe, I wasn't sure. I just thought he sounded alot more like he used to

[shy flame]

It does sound a lot closer but it definitely is the same as 3 from some of the dialogue

[karmic sable]

I know its good on gameplay wise. I have a friend tell me that

The parts im wondering are the story and (funnily enough) performance

And the endgame content

[shy flame]

I wish I could send a picture of my current Vex customization, she is so cute!!!

[misty garnet]

Ive been trucking through Mario and Luigi Brothership in my free time. Gets alot better the further it goes in

[obsidian plover]

It's bad. And you aren't listening to that.

[karmic sable]

Isn’t that BL3?

[obsidian plover]

post it in your main server

[proven kernel]

I’ve been playing Paper Mario ttyd, so scratching the Mario rpg itch too

[obsidian plover]

I played 3 for about an hour, then returned it. Dunno.

[misty garnet]

Hot take it dont think 3 was insufferable as people said it was, but I do think its stupid ava got sanctuary over tannis or ellie

[tame nacelle]

It seems like its a decent destiny game but a bad borderlands game. Apparently the endgame doesn't exist at all rn and they forgot how to do farmable bosses the easy way.

[obsidian plover]

3 was performatively bad and game design bad.

[misty garnet]

You know, characters that have been in the Crimson Raiders far longer with more leadership skills

[misty garnet]

I mean maybe if you go into overkill bs.

Personally I fricking love the gunplay

[obsidian plover]

Again, I'd rather just go to taco bell with 3 friends at this point.

[sour cairn]

play deltarune

[misty garnet]

I mean thats valid

[tame nacelle]

I've heard most people I trust say 3s raw gameplay was peak

[misty garnet]

That game is so good

[obsidian plover]

This is so goated.

[karmic sable]

Gameplay wise it was fine but it was insufferable on story side

[misty garnet]

I was bummed when they cut a couple of jokes out for the closer translation, but still a phenomenal game

[proven kernel]

I will eventually

[crude bronze]

i love 3's actual gameplay the most

[karmic sable]

Which is why I’m more interested in 4’s story because it leaves all that Pandora BS and starts fresh

[crude bronze]

however i find the story trope of the whiny kid unforgiveable

[proven kernel]

Anyway, time to go make food

[misty garnet]

I feel like the twins could have better, i do agree. Dont get me wrong, I liked Troy and Tyreen, but idk they didnt have near the complexity that made Jack so good

Pfffft. Ok fine.

Peesha AND smash burgers.

[karmic sable]

The problem with 3’s story for me was that it felt like a rushed and shit way to end multiple OG characters and filling their places with unfunny jokes and the Streamer Siblings who dont even feel like a threat

[misty garnet]

Hes still an interesting character for how hes written. He has more deph to his motives than the twins

[karmic sable]

This I also agree

I don’t glaze 2’s story. That also had its problems

[tame nacelle]

I don't know. I play 3 this week so I'll see. I'm chewing through the series rapidly.

[obsidian plover]

what do you be glazing

[misty garnet]

Yeah i think the biggest issue is that somehow the vault hunters arent a direct part of the cutscenes, so they just end up feeling like an after plot in the story over all

[karmic sable]

Unironically Borderland Prequel story

[tame nacelle]

Yes!

[karmic sable]

In borderlands series, that was my favorite story

[obsidian plover]

alr explain it

[misty garnet]

Oh you and I are gonna ve food friends. I LOVE pre sequel

[tame nacelle]

Its the BEST its the GOAT its crazy it got killed before the dlc could be made

[misty garnet]

My Doppleganger build was utter bs cause I didnt even have to shoot once I got enough lasers going off

Just ran and slammed

Then depleted shields with wrist lasers

[tame nacelle]

I wasn't CRAZY about Athena's builds

[karmic sable]

It basically set the stones and answered the questions I had from Borderlands 1 and 2, successfully explained Jack’s story and his betrayal and it felt unique take

[tame nacelle]

And it also made me hate characters I used to love which is insanely hard to pull off

[karmic sable]

Same

I used to like the BL1 Vault Hunters but the Prequel actually made me hate them

Playing BL2 after the Prequel felt like an entire different story

[tame nacelle]

I think Brick and Mordecai might be....fine...ish. Except for them in tales of lmao.

ZERO IS FINE ACTUALLY

What's really interesting is thinking about Tannis' actions in 1. Which I still don't understand.

[karmic sable]

Zero I have some mixed thoughts about

Should I buy BL3 on PC with its DLC’s and go through it again?

[misty garnet]

Zero just being buddies with Rhys is so funny to me

And honestly I wish Zero had some skills that used his sword and agility. As character hes so cool, but the cloak and snipe routine did NOT match the cinematic

Salvador is broken though, he literally refills his ammo every time he pops skill, its utter bs and saves SO MUCH cash

[tame nacelle]

I heard a friend say 3s dlcs writing is specifically "better"

[crude swan]

the game sucks as f doesn’t it?

[kindred vigil]

No people say it's fun it's just badly optimized rn

[crude swan]

GOD I hate how most new games are optimized like if they were made in a tomato…wait a second…

[icy rain]

its so fun

[crude swan]

🍅NOOOOOOO PLEASE NO-gets killed by a swarm of tomatoes

[kindred vigil]

Unfortunately I play series S so 720p is probably all im gonna get

[kindred vigil]

And no fov slider is outrageous

[crude swan]

no fob slider in an FPS in the big 25 💀

[icy rain]

something with wood it seems

[nimble salmon]

we could be playing Marathon rn

[mortal sequoia]

The organic LEDs in my awesome high refresh rate 240hz OLED kicked the bucket after less than a month RIP

Maraflop 💔

[misty garnet]

Maybe the marathon was the friends we made along the way

[atomic pilot]

I just hope this game doesn't flop hard

I need more marathon games

[nova moss]

oatchi

same tbh

[neon nexus]

Regardless of how this game does, you won’t get more marathon games

[atomic pilot]

I know I won't lol

But it's a nice dream to have

[abstract obsidian]

Willing to consult for free if the Marathon team wants to not flop:

Resume

1. Experienced program manager who has managed projects worth billions
2. History of leading military and technical teams
3. Original Marathon/Halo player with deep appreciation for lore
4. Wants to buy and play winning games; currently disappointed in Bungie and knows we can do better

[drifting skiff]

I think I had an omen in my dream

I saw the rise of a new civilization in spite of what was lost before and I watched someone who was previously catatonic eat someone else whole and speak on his need for more souls

Chat what does this mean

[neon nexus]

Bro 💀

[obsidian plover]

[kindred vigil]

deep appreciation for lore in ur resume

[upper storm]

realized last night there's a dracula flow bar that's literally the story of nuMarathon

"I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM ANYMORE, I'M MAKING TOO MUCH MONEY"

[tawdry olive]

the prophecy is tru

[drifting skiff]

@4 Who's we you pregnant?

[mortal sequoia]

An Alienware OLED, made in March 2025

Ded

[cursive perch]

Yikes

[mortal sequoia]

Bagged it back for return

The electronics in it seemed to have an early death, too bad it was good while it lasted

[tawdry olive]

i should get out of bed now

[mortal sequoia]

What for?

[tawdry olive]

slept for 11 hrs

[mortal sequoia]

I wish I could sleep for more than 4-5

[crude swan]

[junior sable]

Never buy an Alienware monitor lol

[mortal sequoia]

It lived for like 3 weeks until it went blank while gaming and that was it. It gets power, no osd, no brightness, and dead

Back to gaming on IPS

[junior sable]

the backlight Went dead lol

[mortal sequoia]

It's an OLED so no backlight

[junior sable]

oh ya Welp Thats an expencive repair HOPE ITS STILL UNDER WARRENTEE lol

[mortal sequoia]

Probably the electronic board that tickles the pixel died

Yeah past return time, still in warranty have to service it under warranty

3 weeks lifetime

[proven hazel]

[kindred vigil]

every pony

[quick drum]

BL4 performance betterish, was it due to lazy compiling of shaders i dunno?

[kindred vigil]

day 1 patches brobro

[tight sinew]

Day One patches 😔

[kindred vigil]

ur talking to crickets rn wait till it's not the weekend bro ✌️

[tight sinew]

Anytime I peep on here it’s dead

[kindred vigil]

it's even deader on the weekends

which, should be opposite one would think

[visual thistle]

never buy discord cosmetics lol

[tight sinew]

Was lit about to say that

[kindred vigil]

Because the main focus is that it's a PvE game with the threat of a real person sneaking up, doing to much tasks with elaborate steps would cause frustration, and lack of multitasking for multiple quest steps, and waste ur run time minutes doing 1 quest than just 5 in one run

(I assume)

there r u happy now bro 💔

[tight sinew]

Let Neeyth cook

[kindred vigil]

Missions and quests aren't the main thing of extraction shooters, upgrades and loot are, extraction shooters r like rougelikes if it makes sense

you wanna GET better quicker, not waste time doing elaborate quest steps that may frustrate the player base more than the pvp aspect

It's a battle royale + rougelike type of system going on, you're here for the immersion, the gun plays, the experience, the loot, the dopamine of making it out alive near death

The appeal is
I'm hot landing on an active DMZ, no one's my friend, type shit

[tight sinew]

He’s going to type “I still don’t get it”

[kindred vigil]

Which is why marathon is trying to be different, introduce lore, dungeon level mechanics, stories, more elaborate quests and secrets into the extraction space for casual folk who are used to this in other games

[tawdry olive]

Good

[kindred vigil]

Marathon is built as an stepping stone. Not good at pvp? It's ok. You got pve, lore, some quests, and some secret dungeons, it's casual

Then, naturally the more you pvp, you'll probably want more realism, maybe some more pvp so you'll probably progress to playing tarkov, hunt, arena breakout, delta force, whatever have ya

[tawdry olive]

neeyth baked a yummy cake and u didnt eat it 😭

[junior sable]

Didnt spend any monety on it lol used Orbs that gave for free

[kindred vigil]

wtf is orbs is this some new mobile currency

[tawdry olive]

fr doe, i want me some PIE

u feel me

[junior sable]

its discords new currency you get for compleating some "quests"

[kindred vigil]

discord is a mobile game now 💔

[junior sable]

always has been

[kindred vigil]

I gotta do my discdailys rq

[visual thistle]

whut duh hell

me when i look at ads to make discord more money than the fake money they give me 🤑

[tawdry olive]

i wish me and neeyth can sit on a tree branch looking at a sunset and hold hands

[visual thistle]

hes literally 12

[kindred vigil]

swof the new bit is that I'm 60 ur out dated

[tawdry olive]

thats a lie

[visual thistle]

idgaf

[kindred vigil]

this is the real answer ✌️😂

[tawdry olive]

im doing laundry at a laundromat, who else

[kindred vigil]

do y live in New York by any chance

[tawdry olive]

nope, i live in colorado

[visual thistle]

have u played tarkov

[kindred vigil]

I explain more in my accompany texts

[kindred vigil]

And how marathon is trying to do it a bit diff

[tawdry olive]

*accompanying

[kindred vigil]

that's a fake state I think

[sour cairn]

anyone else like ai art

[tawdry olive]

everything is fake

[kindred vigil]

Me me me me !!! I love not paying real artists and using stolen data !!

[unborn badger]

mmm yummee

[tawdry olive]

the sun and moon dont exist, everything is just numbers being processed in a dyson sphere

[kindred vigil]

That's not even a mission that's just a thing you do in the map bruh

I'm not saying missions derail the focus, I'm saying the APPEAL isn't quests, extraction shooters are at their core, Lowkey battle royales + rougelikes, they're PVP games at their core despite the elements of pve. The pve element is what makes it "unique"

[tawdry olive]

i want d2 pve

[kindred vigil]

well I have news for u

[tawdry olive]

who tf liked crucible

[kindred vigil]

Crucible was a side mode that somehow became a main thing

And now sometimes said side mode originally, affects the sandbox of the main game that is pve

[kindred vigil]

Is that not what I say right here bruh

[tawdry olive]

that sentence wording gave me a headache

[crude bronze]

wait this guy is cooking

[tawdry olive]

next to type loves me

[uneven abyss]

type

[tawdry olive]

me and terra soulmates

[uneven abyss]

i think marathon should have a dog tag system

i wanna kill tabby and own their DAC so that we are bonded forever

[kindred vigil]

I'm trying to explain to you, of why in YOUR original question asking, "why does the extraction genre not have more elaborate" quests, I'm explaining the appeal, not that better quests are bad what ???

[uneven abyss]

LMAO WHAT IF THE DOGTAGS ARE DACS

[uneven abyss]

dogtags give you the opportunity to keep a record of those you killed i think theyre neat

[kindred vigil]

Dog WHAT?

killmails in EVE online became a driving factor for why people played for a long time

[kindred vigil]

eve online holy does anyone even play that game

[crude bronze]

not after the novelty of the killmails wore off it seems

[quick drum]

only in the winter 😄

[proven kernel]

Battlefield needs to send you a stl file of the tags with the screen name of the person on them so you can start a collection.

[kindred vigil]

like forever winter the video game

[quick drum]

yes; politics are kinda too much atm but other than that i fly most the ships in the game

[uneven abyss]

so you can prove to your friends that you killed the best player in the game

[kindred vigil]

idk what this even means but type shit

[uneven abyss]

i mean i agree its pure ego but its fun

[quick drum]

it means people and leadership in game are annoying

[kindred vigil]

That's every online game that has more than 10 people in one server

[quick drum]

well its in space too 😄

hopefully my ships haven't blown up being all cached in a keepstar in nullsec but oh well

[kindred vigil]

Yeah, which means IM the captain and you do what I say so I can live MY fantasies! Gosh! 🙄

If I wanna be a dictator in my massive online spaceship game I will do so

[tawdry olive]

[tawdry olive]

yay

[quick drum]

i could do a beer rn

[kindred vigil]

[quick drum]

a herbal tee? does that work?

[kindred vigil]

I'm not 21 #iilegal @fbi 🙄🙄

[uneven abyss]

its some peoples cup of tea, for some people its not

Like having a fogtag of your favorite streamer

jeez why is that word so hard

[proven kernel]

Frogtag

[uneven abyss]

not editing this time

[uneven abyss]

thank god you werent here earlier. i wouldve been banned lol

[proven kernel]

Uh oh

[kindred vigil]

fog tag ??

[uneven abyss]

umm… yes

[kindred vigil]

fogtag or dogtag which 1

[tawdry olive]

i liked the first one from earlier

[uneven abyss]

can mods see the edit history of a comment? like if i wrote in something like hitlers entire manifesto and then instantly edited it to a smiley face could they know?

[tawdry olive]

they can c it

[uneven abyss]

damn im fucked

[tawdry olive]

but its obvious typo

[kindred vigil]

probably

[tawdry olive]

unless..

[uneven abyss]

nah i mispelled dogtag earlier i missed a critical keystroke

[tawdry olive]

it rly made my day tbh

[kindred vigil]

u seem to be easy pleased which isn't a bad thing

[tawdry olive]

did u turn into Socrates

[uneven abyss]

we have almost the same colors

[uneven abyss]

no that was plato his sidekick

[quick drum]

how did socrates die?

[uneven abyss]

poisoned by his enemies

https://tenor.com/view/ramsay-bolton-iwan-rheon-smile-grin-happy-gif-5121342172168910704

[kindred vigil]

I dunno

[uneven abyss]

socrates died by being ordered to drink poison

He had the opportunity to escape to a nearby country but chose not to

the only reason we even know of Socrates is prolly because his refusal to escape made him a legend

we prolly wouldnt know of him otherwise

[quick drum]

why was he ordered to drink poison?

[uneven abyss]

of course all this is according to legend

[drifting skiff]

More like socradeez nuts

[uneven abyss]

Supposedly? Heresy against the Gods

[drifting skiff]

Fuck ancient greek fetishization

[uneven abyss]

In reality? he was making people think

[quick drum]

i don't think that was it, wasn't it corrupting the youth and his participation in educating the tyrants?

[uneven abyss]

well yeah thats what i meant by making people think

[drifting skiff]

Wild how it's an issue as old as humanity that we talk about "corrupting the youth"

[kindred vigil]

lightning round who's the Greek god that did the evil thing 10 seconds

[uneven abyss]

Ea Nasir gave out poor quality copper to the youths

[drifting skiff]

All of em

Wait were you going for prometheus

[uneven abyss]

prometheus did nothing wrong

Prometheus was a brave greek robin hood! And in this house hes a hero! end of story!

[quick drum]

didn't he give the people tik tok?

[uneven abyss]

no that was china

[drifting skiff]

Oh completely agreed. He just was the deliverer of original sin but before we made that a Christian thing

Just like Jesus is probably a retelling of dionysus

[quick drum]

wat dat?

[kindred vigil]

I think u can say fucking

[uneven abyss]

well… jesus was a real dude. its just wether or not he did all the magic shit is up in the air

[drifting skiff]

Yeah but like, the myth surrounding him is pretty dionysus coded

[kindred vigil]

is that the guy with the boulder

[quick drum]

just ressurect randi

[kindred vigil]

I thought that's (original) stoicism (mb that's nihilism)

[tawdry olive]

that was sysyphus

[quick drum]

critical thinking is pretty taboo nowadays, groupthink is where its at, groupthink and alarmism

[tawdry olive]

also a disease that can make u go blind

[drifting skiff]

"We lack so much critical thinking today" thinks letting women vote was a negative in society

[quick drum]

woah woah ease up there on the critical thinking 😄

[kindred vigil]

What the FUCK is alarmism bruh is that when we all hate our alarms or some shit I swear all these isms pissing me off!!

[drifting skiff]

I'm just quoting you idk what to tell you

[quick drum]

it's the sky is falling we're all going to die, give up all your belongings to me or the cause kthx

[kindred vigil]

so modern nihilism ?

[drifting skiff]

"I was just asking questions" cites the socratic method but doesn't understand stochastic terrorism

why not both lol

Nah this mans doesn't know how to argue and keeps having thinly veiled misogyny through "just asking questions"

[kindred vigil]

because I hate being wrong!!!

It's my god given right to be ...RIGHT...!!

[uneven abyss]

Men should be placed in boxes yes I agree

[drifting skiff]

Why is this question relevant

[kindred vigil]

Refer. now I'm not gonna answer anymore voting questions

[tawdry olive]

except me, can i hide with u in ur box

[drifting skiff]

Neeyth isn't talking to you. Turn your attention to someone who'll bite

[uneven abyss]

ur in a public forum bro go to dms if you want privacy

[quick drum]

sure but maybe they just watcha bad video on tiktok or some bad italian brain rot videos, and then they vote wrong

[drifting skiff]

What's the disagreement?

[uneven abyss]

I do not share that opinion.

[drifting skiff]

Also disagreement needs to come from genuinely different lines of thinking, not different moral frameworks

[uneven abyss]

Appeal to emotion.

[drifting skiff]

What is the fucking disagreement here lmao

[quick drum]

maybe only profesional politicians should be allowed to vote, you know like royalty

[uneven abyss]

also btw if your only response is “sad.” and not any form of probing about why i disagree which completely upends what you want us to think about your opinion

[drifting skiff]

Like if someone says "we should shoot the homeless" as a response to "what do we do with the homeless?" we're not coming from the same moral framework.

Emotion and the understanding of it is required to make a reasonable argument. Those who claim to be devoid of emotion in their points are simply unaware of them

[quartz abyss]

[drifting skiff]

Yet you don't expound on yours

[uneven abyss]

yay laundry day

You can fail at engaging in good faith

This sounds like capitalist brainrot. Ideas are not a marketplace to be traded for theyre just shared

Appeal to emotion

[drifting skiff]

[uneven abyss]

A bad analogy then

[drifting skiff]

Stochastic. Terrorism.

You joined in :) we're both at the bottom of the same barrel

[uneven abyss]

war

The War of Three Queens and One **************** theyre calling it

[drifting skiff]

I didn't get to type it out but the marketplace of ideas only works if everybody has the same goals and moral framework. Marketplace of ideas leads to hate speech and propaganda being spread and solutions that are to the detriment of almost everyone on the planet. It's such a naive fucking standard its insane when these philhellenes with zero context of the world they live in complain about "my ideas get shot down" and the idea is "women are stupid" like come the fuck on

[uneven abyss]

let her cook

philhellenes is now added to my dictionary

[drifting skiff]

To define it, stochastic terrorism is effectively spreading thinly veiled hate speech and rhetoric that damages the wellbeing of disadvantaged groups but is plausibly deniable so it's difficult to give repercussions to because they could plausibly fucking deny it. Ex. "I'm just asking questions" or any dogwhistle ever

[uneven abyss]

I wanna start a constructive argument now just for fun

[proven kernel]

Mmm sealioning

[uneven abyss]

Whose with me

the topic is “Should Runners be considered people?”

[kindred vigil]

Usually doesn't go well cause some bone head is just gonna play strawhat

[drifting skiff]

Like it's this stupid loop of
"damn they said a plausibly deniable but problematic dogwhistle"
"Hey they said the thing!!! They're literally calling for this!"
And fuckers will go
"Yes, but they could plausibly deny it" like open your EYES

[drifting skiff]

YUP

[uneven abyss]

are runners people chat?

[drifting skiff]

That fits into a similar category but usually seeks to show how superior the sealioner is by saying "look they can't even answer these questions they look so dumb!"

[drifting skiff]

They were but now they're close. They don't really have rights afaik

[kindred vigil]

It depends if we consider our brain(our consciousness if you will?) enough to consider a "person"

[drifting skiff]

Plucked chicken or smth Socrates Diogenes

[kindred vigil]

if we consider the brain, the ability to think complex a person, runners are "people" but are they human, who have human rights...it's unsure cause it is humans who dictate rights and if runners are synthetic people trying to emulate us, which effectively isn't human, which isn't a person In that sense...

[drifting skiff]

It is weird that our definitions tend to revolve around being human so something that isn't quite human wouldn't be a "man" or "woman"

[uneven abyss]

maybe the greatest drink ever created

[sour cairn]

microsoft requires all games need to playable in full on series s

[icy rain]

i meant like can it even be enjoyable type shit

500p 30fps 💔

[sour cairn]

which is why bg3 wasnt initially released on series s cause splitscreen coop wasnt functioning on s while it ran fine on x

microsoft got sad after seeing it explode in popularity, they shot themselves in the foot basically

[kindred vigil]

what the fuck r u drinking so much for

[kindred vigil]

this is so late

[sour cairn]

mb

[icy rain]

[icy rain]

#retruth

[icy rain]

[kindred vigil]

Some games just can't work that's why we get 500p games and there's a game that's 200p bruh

[kindred vigil]

I only play it bc my brother likes it otherwise this game blows

[icy rain]

[kindred vigil]

I'll try to find it it's some Chinese game it's at crazy low resolution

[icy rain]

[agile mason]

[kindred vigil]

It's Wuchang it's internally 300p but upscaled to 900p in quality mode and performance mode at internal 360p upscaled to 1260p
