[karmic pumice]

Huh

[mortal sequoia]

Never buy a Dell OLED monitor jeez

Frickin money wasters scam

[karmic pumice]

What's so bad about it? Other than burn in?

[mortal sequoia]

It randomly dies after 3 weeks, and nobody wants to warranty or service it

So you sit around with one dead display, and your old monitor if you still have it

[mortal sequoia]

The electronics died in less than 3 weeks runtime, and you get zero display

It powers, it's detected by the system and it displays blank

[wooden fjord]

Dell is still in business?

/s as I'm current using a shitty Dell laptop that constantly has problems

[mortal sequoia]

Surprisingly so, apparently they sell C grade electronics at full price that and then don't see the support or warranty emails

[wooden fjord]

Man

World is a fuck

Why can't we just have Marathon

[mortal sequoia]

Fr

Release the game already

[wooden fjord]

Escape from reality Will Make Me slightly happier

BL4 has been a nice distraction

[quick drum]

you done with bl4 already?

barely 50 and still on the farm getting that build

[wooden fjord]

Nah not even close to done, I want to get a few finished builds for a couple different characters

[quick drum]

try snowpelt yet? such an annoyone

[wooden fjord]

Shadowpelt?

Yeah that's somehow one of the hardest bosses in the game lol

Still not too bad though

[proven kernel]

sadly, that’s a luxury not everyone gets…

[kindred vigil]

It's too early

Marathon needs a fishing mini game

[wooden fjord]

They should add lootboxes to get Runner Gems to level up each of your runners

[proven kernel]

oh, remember the loot boxes at the beginning for Battlefront 2? they should totally do that.

[kindred vigil]

This was lwk peak ideas we just were blind

When will testing be approved? And will the game even be released? It feels like I've been waiting for testing approval for three months and never got it.

[kindred vigil]

[long briar]

[proven kernel]

please bungo give us an emblem for this

[kindred vigil]

the slashening...

[proud glade]

xur better be selling Quickfang today

[kindred vigil]

a emblem that's slashed in two, it did too much damage....

Ofc I delete destiny when there's a fun bug

[proud glade]

There's 2 right now

[crisp quarry]

How do I play marathon

[kindred vigil]

U cant

[proud glade]

There's lightweight frame swords solo 1-phasing a raid boss that has 3 times the amount of health as the Witness
and then there's sturm which is making everything do 3.8x damage. EVERYTHING.

[crisp quarry]

Why?

[kindred vigil]

wow the time I don't have wifi and the time I don't install destiny, I could be farming bloodline rn!! 😂😂✌️✌️💔💔💔

[kindred vigil]

because there's no open tests

[proud glade]

they'll patch it tuesday

[crisp quarry]

Oh okay ty

[kindred vigil]

I will not have wifi by then most likely #ohwell

[proud glade]

also why are you farming buried bloodline

[kindred vigil]

cause I want it ⁉️

[proud glade]

you could be farming for heartshadow the best exotic ever made

[kindred vigil]

I don't own witch queen dungeons

[proud glade]

but you have lightfall dungeons

[kindred vigil]

because the annual pass version was like 20$

and I had to rebuy every dlc for my Xbox so....

[proud glade]

it was $100 last time i checked wtf dude

[kindred vigil]

id like to get hierarchy of needs but I'm not paying 20$ for a 3 year dungeon

and I missed rite of nine to get it why didn't any of u told me there was a free exotic

[proud glade]

you could've gotten navigator and hierarchy REHEHEHEHEHE

[kindred vigil]

💔💔...

everytime I'm.gone from destiny good stuff happens

[proud glade]

they also gave away the episode 1 and 2 exotics for free

[kindred vigil]

well those exotics kinda suck besides choir not a lost

[sour cairn]

both are still free

[proud glade]

i forgot

[sour cairn]

stuff in portal is f2p and both those missions are in there

[proud glade]

i don't ever go to pinnacle ops

[sour cairn]

the only paid things in portal are the legacy rewards modifier for the dungeons

[kindred vigil]

and it's much more easier to get the catalysts for old exotic missions cuz all u gotta do is play a higher difficulty and not some elaborate puzzle bs

I still don't have vexcalibur catalyst for that reason

or choirs

[proud glade]

they added avalon to the portal
all you have to do is beat avalon in the portal at all and you get cataylst for free

[kindred vigil]

Yeah I saw allat and thank goodness

[proud glade]

we STILL don't have the barrow dyad mission and it SUCKS

[kindred vigil]

it's the one exotic I'm missing smh

I really want it too #fomo

[proud glade]

you said you didn't have buried bloodline that's not the only exotic you're missing

[deft pilot]

[kindred vigil]

I'm missing every dungeon exotic besides ghorn, no land beyond, and every raid exotic besides acrius, tarrabah, and anarchy, and barrow dyrad

[kindred vigil]

Wait ur a real person and not a vot

[proud glade]

barrow dyad is not a raid exotic
new land beyond is not a dungeon exotic

[kindred vigil]

[proud glade]

worm bot?

[kindred vigil]

[shy flame]

Guys should I read dostoevsky or Hemingway? I got recommended both. Also any specific works ?

[kindred vigil]

want a break from the ads

[hearty sail]

Pay money

[uneven abyss]

to Adblock!

[hearty sail]

Theft

[uneven abyss]

No I didnt steal adblock, im paying for it

[hearty sail]

You're stealing from the ads you're blocking

[shy flame]

Used to say this to my ex in intimate moments bc he refused to buy premium even tho we could have shared a duo subscription

[uneven abyss]

ahh yes, Joe Ad

the common american everyman

[uneven abyss]

Do ads own property?

[hearty sail]

They earned the right by paying to put those ads on the website which requires the revenue to stay running

You're basically paying someone else to sneak you onto a bus without paying for a bus pass

[uneven abyss]

Yes. But I respect the guy who sneaks me on the bus more than the bus company

[hearty sail]

You respect theives who steal than people who give value?

[kindred vigil]

I really wanna see the guy who hates ads here in this convo

[uneven abyss]

The bus owner is gonna give me value?

[uneven abyss]

Nah I got this one bro

[shy flame]

Is your pfp ai and youre talkng about stealing from ad companies

[hearty sail]

You're being unreasonable, the fact that they are operating a bus to offer public transportation at an affordable price for people who can't or don't need a car is inherently giving value to society

[uneven abyss]

True. But the bus driver is getting fisted so that the CEO of the bus company can line his pockets, what value is money that never gets spent?

Like if the money came back to make the bus better sure, I get that. But its not

[kindred vigil]

Is getting what

[hearty sail]

Thats a lot of assuming though, besides the owner put in the work they deserve the payout and you stealing means theres less for the drivers really if you think about it

[uneven abyss]

The Thief actually lives in my community on the other hand, he will take that money and spend it on a small business, or to fix his car, or something local

[hearty sail]

That's a lot of assumptions

[hearty sail]

Or to steal, as theives do

[uneven abyss]

Who deserves what is no longer my problem when the person who holds all the money has already decided to do nothing

[hearty sail]

If you have a problem with the bus company than make your own bus company, dont steal from them

[keen pasture]

🫃

I'm so full of stolen bus tickets

[hearty sail]

Like idk what ur problem with affordable public transportation is? You work for a car manufacturer or something?

[uneven abyss]

Yes but the problem is the bus company is a monopoly, in fact theyve made it extremely hard for people to afford their own car

[hearty sail]

They DECIDED to make affordable public transportation, whats wrong with that?

[uneven abyss]

They decided to make it affordable not by putting their money into it, but by putting the bus drivers money into it. Because the bus driver is not getting what he deserves

[hearty sail]

See now you're just making blanket assumptions, do you have a source to back this up?

[uneven abyss]

Who is youtubes competitor.

[shy flame]

It was one assumption and one reference to your own statement. If one is a lot, then I think you'd be scared of my bank account

[uneven abyss]

Ill wait.

[shy flame]

Because it has at least 2

[uneven abyss]

damn i didnt realize youtube had so many competitors

damn dude hit send before you reach the limit

[keen pasture]

What was even the central argument for this <:3

[hearty sail]

Dailymotion, Netflix, D+, TikTok, basically any form of media entertainment these days. The minutes you spend on one platform detract from your ability to get value out of and use another, so Youtube must adapt to make people want to stay on their platform and not subscribe to other platforms and using their services or media. The overhead of YT is very low considering that they put 0 money into the videos uploaded as opposed to other platforms or media forms. They make all their income off of ad revenue, by getting rid of ads you inhibit their revenue streams thus leading to less overall profits to go around. YT is owned by Google but they still need to justify income to remain profitable, so the less ads watched the less creators can get paid and vice versa. The fact that you steal without knowing anything really makes me think you're just baiting lol nobody could be this dumb

[hearty sail]

@uneven abyss hates public transportation

[uneven abyss]

guy actually said daily motion as the competitor to youtube

[keen pasture]

That is not a good faith description I feel 😭

[kindred vigil]

What the FUCK is D+

[hearty sail]

If you dont know the facts dont argue

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[uneven abyss]

“YouTube has Low Overhead”

Ok soooo… why should they make a profit in the first place using other peoples content?

[keen pasture]

Not knowing a company in a long list of examples being used as a got'cha and using it to paint someone as "not knowing the facts" is even less good faith 😭

[uneven abyss]

Daily Motion, And all those other ones cant search for videos on youtube dumbass

[keen pasture]

Mitsubishi Eclipse started this off with a false equivalency and abstracted ad-nauseum 😭

[uneven abyss]

[hearty sail]

Why should Walmart make a profit lol

[uneven abyss]

They make too much of a profit, and so they shouldnt have any

[hearty sail]

I feel as if you were trying to distract from the fact that you are very against public transportation and trying to spend this all on me with an irrelevant topic.

[uneven abyss]

Walmart and other huge businesses kill small communities

[kindred vigil]

Wasn't this about ads and not transportation wthelly

[uneven abyss]

True and real.

[uneven abyss]

Hes switching to jokes because he realized no one here is receptive to his argument

[hearty sail]

You're not really providing a good faith argument for your case either and I personally think that that is very abhorrent and really shows your true colors.

[kindred vigil]

Oh abhorrent like abhorrent action destiny 2 rocket sidearm

[uneven abyss]

[icy rain]

thnx buddy see u then, ill send u a gift card or something then

[icy rain]

thnx buddy

[weak oyster]

That's actually a really neat idea

[sour cairn]

metatton presents very gnc i do not think its outside the realm of possibility for someone to reasonably interpret him as nonbinary

[shy flame]

Cortana went rampant, still identified as a woman

[light ocean]

why would you gaf about gender if you are a computer that dies every 25 minutes

[sour cairn]

fun

[light ocean]

for such advanced technology they need to upgrade that Bluetooth/durability

[shy flame]

I think the point, from someone who has not played or viewed undertale but been told metatton story by my tboy ex, was that he was comfortable in his femininity while still becoming a man

So obv this view has been given by someone who had skin in the game ig

[sour cairn]

we all have skin in the game we're all trans

the trans experience doesnt differ that much in broad strokes across the barrier of transmasc and transfem

i still think its reasonable to interpret mettaton as a nonbinary man

[shy flame]

Ig but that still supports the idea that most robot characters are not beyond gender

[sour cairn]

i interpret him as just a trans man i dont really fw mettaton enough to think of him on a deeper level

mettatons a special case given he was a ghost

[shy flame]

Placing my first order soon btw 🔥🔥🔥

[sour cairn]

robots are constrained by gender expression to the extent that the writer wants them to be

i think its reasonable to interpret all robots as nonbinary given that their understanding of gender is incomplete and only thrown as a mask of programming

but do they even fall on the gender spectrum at all in that case?

depends how humanized the robot is in the work i suppose

[shy flame]

Idk i think most robots within the cultural zeitgeist are aware enough to have gender.

[agile mason]

you def hab the kai cenat car in rl 🙄

[agile mason]

dats my birfday 🤭

[sour cairn]

i mean yeah bc most things in the cultural zeitgeist are made by cis people who do not have a deeper understanding of gender

so their work reflects that

its like asking someone with no research on cephalopods to write an essay on them without any help

[still glacier]

it's an insult im the new vegas glazer but fallout 3 and nv set records for bad gunplay

all of the weapon animations in those games feel like you're controlling a chuck e cheese animatronic

[kindred vigil]

is it choppy or laggy or did they just not remember how bl3 gunplay feels

also did y'all know that lasers technically operate by chance

[tawdry olive]

expand

or not.

[gleaming bough]

🐟 🐟 🐟 🐟

[kindred vigil]

Like
Lasers as in like
the cool epic scifi
or medical

[agile mason]

recently found out hibiscus was jamaica 😭

[drifting skiff]

so like.... lasers work by using a block/cylinder of a certain material that when exposed to electric current and also certain wavelengths of light, will excite and then release light. When electrified the material excites and starts giving off light in every which direction, but when light hits other atoms/electrons that are excited it causes them to release both the initial energy and the energy stored in the atom it hit in the same direction and in the same phase. This allows a chain reaction to occur under proper conditions that the chamber facilitates. Lasers work by a photon just happening to go directly in line with where the laser is supposed to go, which is why the light is in phase and all going the same direction

[kindred vigil]

Did.....you have that explanation ready

[drifting skiff]

those are all the same lasers

[drifting skiff]

I literally just typed it out when tabby asked

[kindred vigil]

Marathon better pull something amazing because being able to compete with arc raiders and arena breakout infinite will be tuff but I sure bungie could make the game good

[weak oyster]

I haven't heard of either of these games

[robust cedar]

You kidding right

[weak oyster]

No

[robust cedar]

How, people were literally using arc raiders to make fun of the game and the bad situations that happened to marathon

[weak oyster]

Because I'm not using other upcoming games to put down something that hasn't released yet

[robust cedar]

No I didn’t mean that, I’m saying because of that alpha week arc raiders gained popularity because of its more diverse gameplay loop because it had a alpha the same week

[weak oyster]

Ohhh ok but yeah no I haven't seen anything about arc raiders, I'll have to check it out

[hollow jasper]

Found a game to hold me over until Marathon

[light ocean]

[nods sadly] Destiny

[proud glade]

She is known as Riven--Riven of a Thousand Voices

[tall smelt]

lol

[karmic sable]

Personal opinion, but I dont think Arc can properly compete against Tarkov when it releases on steam.

[smoky tusk]

Bring the pain Bungie because you are up against some real awsome games like. Call of duty 7 Iam just saying there campaign is off the hook So I hope bungee can step up and do something out of this World....👍

[spiral wigeon]

quit virtue signaling you know damn well what both games are

[weak oyster]

I genuinely had not heard of that until he mentioned it

NEW TEAM REPTILE GAME

HYPERFUNK

[cursive perch]

Fan video I made

Play with sound

[wispy spindle]

You made? Just say it is AI generated

[cursive perch]

It took a few hours and decent amount of effort tho

Its clear that it is AI

[wispy spindle]

Yes it’s clear it is ai so say “here is something I had AI make”

[cursive perch]

It was not an automated process

[wispy spindle]

You prompted the ai

And made a clearly ai generated video

[drifting skiff]

"decent amount of effort" - man who typed words at a computer for like an hour

[obsidian plover]

ai art is still art

[drifting skiff]

ai art is horseshit

[obsidian plover]

its still art

[drifting skiff]

it's really not

[obsidian plover]

The same things were said of people like van gogh.

[drifting skiff]

wind blowing leaves into patterns isn't art, it's the interpretation by a person

[drifting skiff]

yeah and those were wrong and these are right?? like it's not that hard

[obsidian plover]

Exactly. Therefore it's art.

[drifting skiff]

yeah the person isn't doing shit

[obsidian plover]

And still someone observes it as art, therefore it's art.

[drifting skiff]

it's puking up bullshit nonsense that means nothing to the thing creating it

[obsidian plover]

Uh huh. Same can be said for any artist.

[drifting skiff]

it really can't

[obsidian plover]

Yeah, it can.

[cursive perch]

it delivers a feeling

[obsidian plover]

You weren't in the mind of the creater of art. The subjectiveness is the audience.

[drifting skiff]

So does a stomach bug

[cursive perch]

dont have to be jello now

[drifting skiff]

There was a mind creating that art. Someone prompting AI is doing no more than commissioning something to create, and the creation is literally randomly generated

[drifting skiff]

Why the fuck would I be jealous

[cursive perch]

But its not randomly generated. Its seeded

The fact you cant use it doesnt mean its shit

[drifting skiff]

It's still randomly generated. It's taking a huge amount of input and just churning out what's close. There's no intent. There's no thought. It's a computer spitting out values

[drifting skiff]

I don't use it. It's abhorrent

I can use it, fuckin anyone can use it. You're not special for learning how to write words at your special little hallucination for a day

[obsidian plover]

Irrelevant.
If the observer doesn't know otherwise, it would still be considered art. You are applying observational bias.

[drifting skiff]

It's almost like the process contributes to the piece and if there is no process then how is it a piece

[cursive perch]

Then dont. Live plays are still a thing, after they invented the camera

[obsidian plover]

It's only not art, because you believe AI art is bad, and not art, so you will always attack it.

[weak oyster]

Waste of electricity most places consider it plagiarism

[obsidian plover]

what most places do you speak of?

[drifting skiff]

My argument isn't resting on "It's low quality". It's resting on how anti-human it intrinsically is

[olive oracle]

Alright yall, lets move on from the subject, eh?

[drifting skiff]

Fucking everywhere wait do you genuinely think it's not plagiarism??

[cursive perch]

People still draw with coloring pencils after they invented the digital tablet

[obsidian plover]

Colleges, art institutions, websites, publishers

is it like tos that makes that an issue cause that’s a line in game

I thought I had all the gas fittings accounted for, I. in fact. Did not.

[proven kernel]

beats me, i’m not in their discord.

[obsidian plover]

I mean it's a bit weird, because I totally understand the motif of the game. And that nuanced dialogue is def there.

But that's the discord community's issue at that point.

[spiral wigeon]

It is what it is lol now i know it’s acceptable in game not discord

[obsidian plover]

just type it in hd2 chat, you'll survive.

i've seen wild stuff fly over in hd2 chat

[kindred vigil]

are they still on the malevolent creek bit

[wooden fjord]

Holy mother of god that looks good

Yep. Doin.

[wooden fjord]

Einspanner 100%

The cyborgs and automatons use the red star a symbol of the big c word

[obsidian plover]

Doing it. The einspanner is also made with small batch hand roasted beans in short time intervals. Its kind of crazy.

[wooden fjord]

That's not what I'm saying. You said "I got banned for quoting a line from the game" when it's not actually a quote from the game. Either way 🤷 live and learn I guess

whats wrong with frozen water ?

[kindred vigil]

WHEN CORPORATES USE IT to try to give me less drink!! Bitch I asked for a large not a small in a large cup!! Stop trying to nickel and dime me.!!!

[cursive perch]

yeah Ive tried that hack

no ice iced latte

[kindred vigil]

that shit is a #scam like you don't even NEED that much ice and then when you ask for less they wanna give u a half of a cup so you get less produce like WHAT

[wooden fjord]

Yeah the amount of ice they put in drinks is stupid I hate it

[kindred vigil]

If I wanted that much ice id ask for a free ice cup

fucking shit almost exploded my head, they add extra shots "cuz the flavor is diluted otherwise" fucking almost had a stroke had to drink the thing through the whole day

you break the system

And I mean I get it may have different performance or lack of region restriction but if you can play the other why choose the fakr

[upper storm]

marton

[wooden fjord]

Huh

[kindred vigil]

For example why play like paladins if overwatch is free

[obsidian plover]

96% ice, 4% drink

[kindred vigil]

or why play any other pubg clone when PUBG is free

[wooden fjord]

Overwatch didn't used to be free

[kindred vigil]

that's true...paladins was goated for being free in 2017....

[obsidian plover]

bruh it's vulgar. around here there's a coffee place that if you ask for no ice, they just give you a half cup of drink.

I stopped buying their dog bean water.

[kindred vigil]

wow I legitimately forgot overwatch used to be a paid game.

And that I bought it

[obsidian plover]

DOG BEAN WATER

[drifting skiff]

ngl I really liked paladins when I played. It feels solidly different

[wooden fjord]

Also PUBG has been known to be a cesspool of cheaters for a very long time now

Also yeah, just different experiences in the same genre

[obsidian plover]

100x servers

[kindred vigil]

ok my comment was kinda doofus #mb

[wooden fjord]

Don't let it happen again.

[kindred vigil]

cuz I have to remember I play clones upon clones everyday

ok but when it's lik a shitty clone why choose the bad 1

no one plays bad games besides josh stife hayes

[wooden fjord]

shrug

Some people have bad taste

[kindred vigil]

I like sonic so I'm well aware what that tastes like

[wooden fjord]

Like how some people are excited for that one "Marathon" game

[kindred vigil]

or that "battlefield 6" game

I just realized since ea wants to make battlefield annual

battlefield 6...7 👀...

[obsidian plover]

no

stop. stop it now.

[wooden fjord]

Yeah that is very much a bad idea

Just got 5 legendary drops from a single boss holy

I guess technically it's 3 mini bosses but still

[kindred vigil]

see what overglazing a game does smh

[wooden fjord]

Nah they would have done that regardless I feel

[kindred vigil]

with them making a BR mode inspired by cod they definitely would've did it it's clear they want a cod.model too

[wooden fjord]

Yeah they're basically just going to copy CoD at this point

[kindred vigil]

Like I already see the impending cod model signs, it's EA at the end of the day, that's why I can't get excited about it like how some ppl are

[wooden fjord]

Hopefully they stay grounded with the skins though

[kindred vigil]

like cod did this exact shit to us in 2019, say they're returning to normal grounded boots on the ground after a futuristic game without a campaign flops with a failed mode (bo4 had failed BR 2042 has failed extraction shooter)

look how that turned out....

#noticing

[drifting skiff]

they should just delete every game except for BFBC2 and BF1

let them ride

bf4 was ok i think

[kindred vigil]

hey you didn't add bfc1 there haha

[wooden fjord]

Wtf is BFC1

[kindred vigil]

Zbztztlezà fzieldaz z

[wooden fjord]

Ohhh okay

[upper storm]

i didn't play bf5 but the chick with the robot arm made a lot of people upset so it earned some cred with me there

[kindred vigil]

battlefield bad company1*

[wooden fjord]

There was no robot arm

[kindred vigil]

The BFV woman cover art has a prosthetic

[upper storm]

minor spelling mistake
turns polish

[wooden fjord]

It was literally just a type of prosthetic limb that was extremely common during that time period

[kindred vigil]

I had water on my phone

[wooden fjord]

I think most people were just upset that it was a woman

But yeah that trailer in general was eh, and I think BF5 was a mark of the beginning of the end for Battlefield

[upper storm]

and a disabled woman to boot

[wooden fjord]

Hopefully 6 is better, but I really don't trust them after the disaster that was 2042

[kindred vigil]

bf6 will be the return until season 2 that adds all the goofy shit

The season 2 curse trust me it exists

[wooden fjord]

Yeah some of the leaked skins already look goofy to me, edgy cringelord stuff

Red and black tacticool gear, skull mask ghillie suits, the weird Monster energy drink skin

[gleaming bough]

🐟 🐟 🐟 🐟

[kindred vigil]

The red and black skins?

[wooden fjord]

🐟 🐟 🐟 🐟

Yeah they're in the Phantom edition

[kindred vigil]

it starts off with edgy red and black then ends prismatic beaming light

[wooden fjord]

Just look like copy and paste T1 Operator skins from 2042

[gleaming bough]

Thats a pain

[kindred vigil]

Is it phantom perhaps ?

[wooden fjord]

A phantom... Pain ?

[kindred vigil]

V ....?

[gleaming bough]

🤯

[upper storm]

Hunt Showdown the goat for keeping its artsyle mostly intact like 7 years later

[kindred vigil]

this is propaganda I now curse hunt with cat girls

[upper storm]

ghostface was a real letdown but an exception so far

[wooden fjord]

Isn't there like

[upper storm]

i unironically love the post malone skins. dude already looks like a hunt character irl

[kindred vigil]

THE WHAT

[wooden fjord]

Post Malone skins or something lmfao

[drifting skiff]

LOVE hunt showdown

[upper storm]

yeah post malone is a huge Hunt fan and they made him a hunter

[kindred vigil]

that's tuff

[upper storm]

and HE DOESN'T LOOK OUT OF PLACE AT ALL

[drifting skiff]

honestly? he was still on tone. like all the partnerships have been tonally decent

[kindred vigil]

I'ma Google it to judge it for myself

[wooden fjord]

I hate that Fortnite did so well so now every company ever wants to copy them and flood the store with hundreds of wacky skins to get spending addicts to buy

[upper storm]

"grody looking dude with face tats and long hair" is already half the skins in that game he legit fits perfectly lol

[kindred vigil]

Ok he genuinely fits lol

[upper storm]

IKR???

[kindred vigil]

That's W collabs

[gleaming bough]

Hunt...

[weak oyster]

Wouldn't it be funny if marathon does that

[kindred vigil]

I don't hate Fortnite at all it's a heavily respected game for me I hate that people blame fornite for having a good system in place lol

[gleaming bough]

Was it wild?

[wooden fjord]

I don't hate Fortnite as a game I just hate what it's done to gaming in general

[weak oyster]

I think people just hate the hyper monetisation trend it started

[kindred vigil]

like Fortnite didn't ruin gaming (it does have a hand in it though) tolerance with corporate greed did, they did it in increments, first it was a free pass, then 10$ passes, 20$ passes, p2w cosmetics, then p2w elements and it's gonna get worse

Like it didn't ruin anything but it introduced the idea of it to others and while it was fine at first it's getting way to much and it's proven people will buy into it regardless

[wooden fjord]

Every game just needs to add an option to turn off cosmetics

[weak oyster]

If you turn the graphics low enough I guess

[kindred vigil]

I think bf6 is great proof that all u need to do is show the average gamer something they like as the cloak under the money they're gonna spend as well with many other games that I can't think of example

[wooden fjord]

I don't want any relative immersion in BF6 to be ruined on the very first day when people start wearing gaudy skins

[kindred vigil]

Defo needs a toggle to enable/disable Collab skins, and skins that don't fit tonally with the game, cod needs that badly

[upper storm]

let's keep it 💯 the phenomenon you're describing was taking place a good while before fortnite

[wooden fjord]

The problem is that not everyone can agree on what fits tonally

[kindred vigil]

is american dad in cod tonally fit

[wooden fjord]

A good idea would be to have multiple toggles like in World of Tanks/War Thunder. Show all skins, show only historically accurate skins, or show no skins

[upper storm]

also I could have seen him working if they redesigned his mask a bit. made it look more handmade and "of the setting". as is it looks too much like plastic, too much an exact replica of the original

and if they did that they could have gotten away with making him wear black robes and a hood instead of whatever goofy ahh fit he's in now

[upper storm]

i suggested this for R6S in like 2015 and everyone called me slurs 😔

[kindred vigil]

Ghost face in gaming is funny because is he even culturally relevant

[drifting skiff]

I mean he looks kinda cool in his goofy outfit, the mask could easily be carved wood

[drifting skiff]

literally never lol

[kindred vigil]

just found out there was a scream movie in 2022-2023 and one in 2026 ok then

[wooden fjord]

Ugh, another franchise completely ruined by obnoxious skins

[upper storm]

Dallas Payday in r6 is so funny

[kindred vigil]

only time I hear about Ghost face is people thirsting over him

[kindred vigil]

What ..... ??

[sour cairn]

thristing

[wooden fjord]

"What if we turned our tactical competitive shooter into a generic hero skinslop shooter"

[kindred vigil]

see this is why I quit the game but ppl call me stupid for hating rainbow six like ok buddy

[wooden fjord]

You pretty much can't even tell what operators people are playing anymore

Visual identification was ruined ages ago

[kindred vigil]

I miss night map era siege

[upper storm]

I also haven't heard good things about how they handle game balance there's some good yt videos about it

[wooden fjord]

There's fucking Rick and Morty in Siege

[kindred vigil]

Beaming red optic sights era

[upper storm]

I tapped out around when they added dokkaebi who was literally just More Versatile Ash

[kindred vigil]

Visual recoil era

[wooden fjord]

Weeb bait

[kindred vigil]

it's canon bruh!!

[upper storm]

dawg she's korean 💀

[wooden fjord]

Don't tell them that

[kindred vigil]

I tapped out Amaru was added

[wooden fjord]

Also they added Borderlands which was a very odd one

For some reason IQ is Lilith?

[kindred vigil]

that makes zero sense

[wooden fjord]

None of them do

[upper storm]

also yeah Dallas is a skin for sam fisher lmao

[wooden fjord]

I completely lost interest in the game when they added all of that shit

[upper storm]

same

[kindred vigil]

"yeah bruh hop on siege" 💔

[wooden fjord]

But I guess wacky skins gets a large fanbase of younger people with disposable parental income

[kindred vigil]

and high tolerance

[proven kernel]

where’s my new splinter cell game, ubi!?

(they’d mess it up)

[wooden fjord]

They were raised in that gaming atmosphere so they don't even know any better

[upper storm]

I know people around my age who still like crossover stuff like that and i just can't understand it

[kindred vigil]

there's an article every year saying it's in the work!! It's coming!!

[wooden fjord]

Imagine growing up with Fortnite being the normal for gaming 😭 no wonder they're fucked

[proven kernel]

yay next year!

[kindred vigil]

I like crossover stuff but it gets to a point bruh

[wooden fjord]

Crossovers are okay if they're done tastefully or if the game is already wacky

[kindred vigil]

sonic x Miku is tuff ASL❤️‍🩹🔋🌹

Beavis and butthead x cod is NOT tuff 💔

[upper storm]

it's fun when it actually adds something to the game. John Wick and Payday actually meshed really really well

[wooden fjord]

Yeah that somewhat sort of kinda makes sense

[tawdry olive]

Realest post all day

[upper storm]

like i have 0 difficulty believing that payday and john wick are both canon to each other, they have a very similar world and overall aesthetic

[kindred vigil]

ok that was a bad example as both have games made by Sega/sonic team and commonly Collab with each other

[wooden fjord]

Things like a Hitman X John Wick

[kindred vigil]

that's tuff

[wooden fjord]

And I guess now Hitman X James Bond

[kindred vigil]

And makes literal sense

[wooden fjord]

Which is literally just a Hitman game with James Bond skinned over it

[upper storm]

hitman is p much just "modern day spy thriller" type beat you can mix it up with a lot of IPs tbh

[kindred vigil]

I could easily believe all the assassins throughout media are in one verse lowkey cause all of them are over the top

[wooden fjord]

Doesn't make much sense to me because that's not really James Bond's style but gotta keep milking the IP now that they're able to

[kindred vigil]

Kingsman x James Bond next

[wooden fjord]

Have there been any Kingsman games yet

Are those movies even that popular

[kindred vigil]

A mobile movie tie in game

[kindred vigil]

I mean I don't think so

[wooden fjord]

Tomb Raider x Uncharted is another good one

[kindred vigil]

Expect one of those game sucks so I hate it

[wooden fjord]

Some day we'll get that 😔

[wooden fjord]

?

I think you made a typo

[kindred vigil]

I never played uncharted

[wooden fjord]

Then how do you know it sucks

[upper storm]

any nerds in chat good w/ pc hardware

thinking I'm gonna need to upgrade soon

[kindred vigil]

yeah I have a 5090gpu AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU

4K monitor ultra wide 250HZ what's up

[drifting skiff]

she was my fav she's so cool

[still glacier]

brokie

[tawdry olive]

Hibana and frost > dokkaebi and ash

[kindred vigil]

ok what do YOU have

[kindred vigil]

"I suck at this game" special

[upper storm]

ok BL4 just went up like 3 points out of 10 I found the option to turn off toggle sprint and damage numbers. they're in accessibility instead of controls for some reason

[drifting skiff]

like... on what metric?

[still glacier]

rtx 5100xt
ryzen 15 25000x
1tb ram
monitor sphere

[kindred vigil]

Why would u turn off damage numbers in a looter shooter rpg ....

[tawdry olive]

Looks alone, and bedtime manner

[kindred vigil]

What does ts mean

[tawdry olive]

Ur too young to undrrstand

[drifting skiff]

that's... not a phrase

[still glacier]

dokkaebi doesn’t sleep without a bedtime story

[drifting skiff]

she just like me fr

[kindred vigil]

To busy writing feminist literature sorry #performativemale

[still glacier]

once upon a time there was a princess but she died and you’re gonna die too
gn

[cursive perch]

which monitor do you have ? ? ?

[drifting skiff]

I saw that autocorrect do you have the brainworms

[cursive perch]

I'm looking for an ultrawide. Want to upgrade my 4k 240hz 32 inch

[kindred vigil]

There's no way you believe someone that has a pfp like me let alone me in general has a 250hz monitor 💔

[proven kernel]

i do

[tawdry olive]

Did u just change ur pfp mid rebuttal

[still glacier]

no i use microsoft swiftkey
