For 90% of anime that’s a steal

[novel tree]

yeah idc. 9anime and aniwave good enough for me. and that shi free

[kindred vigil]

I miss Funimation sometimes

[novel tree]

funimation was lowkey the goat. crunchyroll sucks mad donkey butt

It’s the same shit

[kindred vigil]

ughh one piece koby Funimation dub I miss u

[kindred vigil]

What you know about VRV?

[trim summit]

nah funimation ui was dogshit wdym

[scenic meteor]

It’s where I watched my cartoons on console

[kindred vigil]

[scenic meteor]

Only streaming site that had ScoobyDoo

[kindred vigil]

My brother used that on his PS4 to make me watch aot

[kindred vigil]

so u genuinely like this show?

[scenic meteor]

I watch it here and there but I’m not like diehard fan

[kindred vigil]

I thought u just liked scooby

change to velma whenever u need e girl money

[scenic meteor]

For the most part yea I don’t really like shaggy

[kindred vigil]

or Daphne

[kindred vigil]

what's wrong with shaggy

I do think he is a tad overrated only bc of those stupid corny memes in 2018

[scenic meteor]

And he just lazy

[kindred vigil]

shaggy only using 1% of his power #killme

Multiversus did that shit bru

[scenic meteor]

Multiverses glazed the shit out of shaggy with his powering up and punch move

[kindred vigil]

Soloed by iron giant

[novel tree]

Nneeeyhhrrhhh chnage ur pfp to frieren

[kindred vigil]

ok

ur not gonna imagine me as her right

[novel tree]

Nah

[scenic meteor]

He definitely will

[novel tree]

Im weird, not freaky. Get it right 🙄

[kindred vigil]

Multiverus was so bad how did we genuinely play that

[trim summit]

had god awful hit detection

[kindred vigil]

I would unironically play brawlhalla more than anything wb put out

[scenic meteor]

Cause smash bros was in a slump tbh

Jake was fun in multiverse but so broken

[kindred vigil]

well yeah it ended gng

I have a feeling there won't be any smash bros for a long long ass while

[novel tree]

https://youtube.com/shorts/GEOm4EfdTAM?si=3dYYhoBMIyowtHfE

[kindred vigil]

I also can't lie nothing will be like prime smash bros ult icl

[scenic meteor]

Yea smash bros is kinda is where it is for the foreseeable future tbh

[kindred vigil]

I'm not even a smash Bros fan and god those reveals were tuffff

[gleaming bough]

[rough sail]

The sora reveal was insane

[kindred vigil]

I remember seeing people crying at sora I don't get it but I assume it's emotional

[rough sail]

Kingdom hearts is a series that many people are very emotionally resonant to, and they have been asking for sora in smash for a very long time

[pale cedar]

i just realized i was invited to the NDA to try the game but probably way too late now

[kindred vigil]

Better luck next time mud

[rough sail]

It's indeed too late

[pale cedar]

i didnt know they had a second test

at least i can keep the email as proof of both tests

[kindred vigil]

It's ok I couldn't even play it

[nimble canyon]

Merry Christmas.
I hope you're all doing okay.

[pale cedar]

rip

[kindred vigil]

Life is so #evil along with its residents 😞

[nimble canyon]

There's been four so far.

[pale cedar]

ive only played the first round and was invited to another NDA testing like 6 months ago

idk any others

[kindred vigil]

[pale cedar]

[kindred vigil]

[pale cedar]

[rough sail]

[trim summit]

my eye hurts

[kindred vigil]

Then we had one around...may? Then another in October, now December

[nimble canyon]

^

[pale cedar]

[kindred vigil]

Aura blud

[pale cedar]

yea ig so cus it said apply now in the email then a week later i was accepted to the test that i didnt even apply for lmao

probably cus i have like 100 hrs clocked into the betas

and have done feedback but idk if they really care about the feedback randoms give

[scenic meteor]

I need to drip out my Warframe

[kindred vigil]

they do they read them surprisingly

[kindred vigil]

let me see it

I am like a consultant of Warframe drip

[scenic meteor]

I’m not on the game right now I just saw a tiktok n my Warframe isn’t up to today’s par

[kindred vigil]

warframe tiltok gg #addicyed

[scenic meteor]

I think I sent Brandon a picture tho maybe lemme see

nvm it was my guardian

[kindred vigil]

I've seen the hunter..... yeesh

[scenic meteor]

it was my titan his drip is better 🙄

[kindred vigil]

U hunters need to drop the black and red

[scenic meteor]

after cayde all we see is red 🥀

[kindred vigil]

u got crow

Also u not king von stop

[scenic meteor]

crow aint shit

[kindred vigil]

But he's trying thooo

[gleaming bough]

[scenic meteor]

they shouldve just made our hunter the canonical vanguard

[kindred vigil]

(guy got 1 tap by his gf)

[scenic meteor]

and if you werent hunter gg no more vanguard

[kindred vigil]

ur more of a one man special forces tho

Like ur BETTER than the vanguard that's the poi

[woven rapids]

march release oh no?

[kindred vigil]

And it would be hard since ur character often goes against their orders if need be so you'd be unpredictable asl

[scenic meteor]

sounds like cayde to me 🥀

[kindred vigil]

Imagine yo hunter vanguard dipping to go do vault of glass for the 999th time

[woven rapids]

is that new dlc nice?

[kindred vigil]

Gameplay wise yeah it's good

[pale cedar]

i was gonna get back into destiny then remembered id have to drop 600$ on dlc

[kindred vigil]

Story wise it's fun not the best but gameplay wise it's good

[woven rapids]

destiny is lyfe

[kindred vigil]

new years eve sale to get every dlc for 12$

[woven rapids]

and the new one?

[pale cedar]

if thats a thing maybe ill come back to destiny

[kindred vigil]

well it's not on sale now but it usually happens they put the dlc collection for cheap alot

[woven rapids]

it is now actually

[scenic meteor]

You can get all the dlc on cdkeys for $30 tbh

[kindred vigil]

👀

I checked steam and the legacy bundle is 13$ that's a steal wtf

[trim summit]

[scenic meteor]

Hollowknight is so good I forgot it was so peak

[kindred vigil]

[proven kernel]

[scenic meteor]

marathon-general-chat is clearly the wildest mispelling of arc raiders down detector

[rough sail]

mid raiders

redownloading kingdom come deliverance, my download speed at my new place is so damn slow

im complaining as if it wont be done in 30 minutes... acting like i aint privelaged...

[scenic meteor]

I loved the first game fr

[rough sail]

im like 30ish hours into it

im gonna be so confused hopping back in lol

[jovial summit]

I literally only got to play 2 games lol

[maiden token]

[trim summit]

why do go on my site where i order my R18 books to be slammed by PEAK books to order 😩😩😩

thank god my japanese guy got me covered 🤝

[rough sail]

Kingdom come deliverance is 67% done downloading. Just wanted everyone to know

[scenic meteor]

tetra go back to bed

[trim summit]

i’m happy for you. i wanna play the second but im busy. First game felt so awkward to play.

[rough sail]

I imagine the second game is similarly awkward

Which I hope for. I like the awkwardness

[prime breach]

Not everyone celebrates though. Its just a normal day for a lot of people.

[trim summit]

Well i heard it’s a bit better in terms of teaching or combat.

[rough sail]

fair

[trim summit]

and it’s a lot better to get into compared to the first, least to what reviewers all been saying compared to the previous game

[rough sail]

I'm way too autistic about continuity so I can't bring myself to skip the first one

[maiden token]

my fault

[trim summit]

well it’s also not 30fps locked compared to the first i believe so that’s nice

[rough sail]

Kingdom come 1 isn't 30fps locked

[trim summit]

not on console?

[rough sail]

ah, I thought you meant PC, my apologies

[scenic meteor]

console gaming in 2025 gg

[trim summit]

probably why i couldn’t play it lol 30 fps in that kind of game is brutal

[trim summit]

i can buy a ps5 pro instead of a 64gb ram lol

[rough sail]

yeah I can't play most games at 30fps anymore, sounds elitist I imagine but goodness does it hurt my eyes

Except for like really old games obviously. I mean modern ones

[scenic meteor]

[cobalt crater]

Ohh

[trim summit]

hm

[prime breach]

I just hit 31 and nothing has really changed for me since I was 20, except I'm retired and now and can spend all my time doing whatever I want.

[blazing widget]

amogus

[trim summit]

wish I could retire at 31 🥀

guess there’s no international tax on books. let’s go.

[rough sail]

retiring at 31? wtf?

[earnest plaza]

Don’t believe everything on the internet sweetie. It’s more like unemployed lol

https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Ffgvpiuo1819g1.jpeg
My homies send me this

[earnest plaza]

I’m curious about this too

[trim summit]

I heard one of the devs said by going to sleep and dreaming

[spare shore]

Its not public

Its consumer research, so they are selecting people manually

[earnest plaza]

If only it was that simple

[rustic jacinth]

The game is fabulous

[kind ember]

Lul, sadly, wanna play marathon sooooo much(

[rustic jacinth]

As a tester of all playtests, I enjoyed every moment even in April

[kind ember]

@rustic jacinth how become as lucky as you?

I remember the first time I saw the first teaser

I knew about this game and wanted to know more and play since the early days

Never knew there was an older game doe

Can we port classic marathon to psp plssss

[scenic meteor]

go to sleep

[rustic jacinth]

I slept 4 hours and im tired

[proven kernel]

[trim summit]

[stoic atlas]

ughhhhhhhhhhh I wanna play this game so bad I'm tempted to buy and play a different extraction shooter just to satiate my thirst

[warm granite]

Arc raiders truthfully isn’t bad

[stoic atlas]

so I've heard

[warm granite]

Even the pvp is fun. The problem I ran into though is the lack of character abilities and limited variety of weapons means everyone basically converges on the same builds and it gets stale for PvP

But that was like after like 30-40 hours for me

[spare shore]

Larp raiders

[trim summit]

marathon won’t be any different

i’m sure people will do whatever faction that’ll give them the best benefits and such and run OP setups

[warm granite]

There’s always going to be a revolving meta but I’m betting it will be more interesting in marathon

[crystal rampart]

This month: invisibility + WSTR
Next month: WSTR + invisibility
Month after that: WSTR + Glitch slide

[viral leaf]

[maiden token]

glitch always meta cos whenever she's on screen eyes pop out of head and I stand still waiting to get sniped

[broken quarry]

is the end game good on this

[fickle wedge]

how the fuck is anyone meant to answer that

[maiden token]

even testers under nda couldnt tell you twin

[open remnant]

Anyone else kinda miss the unique artstyle of the alpha before the graphics update?

The shading in the new one does look good but feel the games lost some of that unique feeling to the world. I guess Its just that it looks more like a lot of other FPS games now.

Maybe I just have to see it in action and play it myself to appreciate it more.

[dusty brook]

Yeahh I feel like they should’ve kept the color more

[vapid valve]

Maybe I played destiny too much but is it Venus grass?

[dusty brook]

Like it definitely did feel like some of the lighting in the alpha was more flat than it is now, but their changes just kinda removed that vivid vibrancy i really liked

I hope they take some feedback and find a balance between them

[mortal sequoia]

Better than retiring at 70

[spare shore]

We can talk about anything in the vidoc

So outpost and pinnacle

[fickle wedge]

yeah but I don't think anyone can make a conclusive answer on what the end game being "good" or not

[cyan coral]

Can I get play test entry for Christmas?:)

[vapid valve]

they should make light less bright

outdoors

[frigid valley]

this game is in Tiger isnt it

[vapid valve]

it is

[mental quarry]

Any christmas themed marathon memes?

[maiden token]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-running-away-responsibilities-hit-fall-gif-7713307

mb wrong marathon

[drowsy mirage]

no, I always thought the alpha's lighting and polish was unfinished so the trailer looks exactly like what I expected the game to end up being which is nice

it looks a lot like the mielgo cinematic which was where my hopes were

[pearl acorn]

Not that much changed imo, still looks great

[gloomy wyvern]

Very good

Yea. 😅

[drowsy bronze]

it's christmas day night, i'm playing classic marathon 1 turbo drunk. just past Beware of Low Flying Defense Drones, wish me luck

well tehcnically boxing day now

[balmy ridge]

It does look great, but I feel that it would benefit from a lowering of both the contrast and “warmth.” Personally, I enjoyed the earlier state/style.

[maiden token]

are you an aussie?

[frigid valley]

the weather systems should do that and volumetric systems as well
also im a massive sucker for god rays

[calm cradle]

Do we know if Marathon will be cross progression?

[astral trench]

there are such things as settings

[drowsy bronze]

yessir

I think the drinks have made me a little better at the game, not as much fear...

[drowsy bronze]

man does Marathon 1 classic remind me of Descent 1 a LOT. Despite D1 coming out a year later

[mental quarry]

What's with all the scam bots lmfao

[scenic dragon]

the warmth comes down to the time of day

[scenic meteor]

Christmas that’s wen they all fall for it

[astral trench]

for instance outpost isnt warm

in fact it seems quite cold out

[mental quarry]

DM me if you want to turn your $500 into my $500

[kindred vigil]

merry christmas

[astral trench]

merry minemas

[mental quarry]

Has there been any information on the game's optimization 🤔

[glacial bane]

happy holibobs

[astral trench]

if its running tiger like destiny 2 i think it'll run fine enough

[mental quarry]

Yeah I would hope it has similar requirements to D2

[kindred vigil]

It is

[kindred vigil]

Not specifically, only thing we can go off is the April build and that's an unfinished lighter version of the game

[proven kernel]

merry christmas and happy honda days

[mental quarry]

Danke

[kindred vigil]

For April if was minimum
8gb ram

GPU: 1050ti GTX (or Rx 5500 if ur amd)
CPU: Intel i5 6600 (or amd ryzen 5 2600)

so April was really light and easy to run but not may not be the case with the obvious improved graphics

But I hear bungies pretty okay at optimization so it should be runnable

[mental quarry]

Thanks for the confirmation 👍
I have a pretty minimal and runs D2 fine but it would feel pretty shit to buy a $40 and not be able to run it

[scenic meteor]

Why are your games runnable mine are stationary

[mental quarry]

Sekiguchi magic 👍

[kindred vigil]

Thank. Ufor the steam game Scooby

is this like darkest dungeon

[scenic meteor]

Not at all

It’s like more linear and less platformy hollowknight

[kindred vigil]

Scooby check ur steam notifications please

[quiet pulsar]

must've been the wind

[kindred vigil]

👀

[pearl drift]

Merry Christmas, hopefully Santa gives me a Marathon Beta Key for Christmas

[scenic meteor]

Thank you Neeyth I completely forgot about that game n wanted to try it 🤍

[mental quarry]

whatcha playing

[quiet pulsar]

not marathon™ that's for sure

[nimble canyon]

A beta that isn't currently a thing. Yeah.

[trail tusk]

cherry mismass

[obsidian plover]

Merry Christmas marathon family:)

The refrigerator door is open

[frigid valley]

im guessing all the volumetrics (fog and smoke effects) will be prebaked for optimisation instead of realtime

[gleaming bough]

Im awoken

[frigid valley]

Awoken female hunter? Wait wrong game

[gleaming bough]

I woke up and half my hand feels static

[nimble canyon]

WiFi connection interrupted.

[lusty narwhal]

Disconnection to sever imminent

[nimble canyon]

Flesh automaton animated by neurotransmitters.

[obsidian plover]

Santa’s sleigh interrupted your satellite feed and you’re having trouble reconnecting to the cloud. Stand in a location with clear sky view to the North.

That should do it.

[fresh raptor]

Or just move your hand and fingers around a bunch

[frigid valley]

turn yourself off then on again

that should do the trick

[nimble canyon]

The problem is with humans. Once they've been turned off turning them back on can sometimes cause major problems.

[obsidian plover]

I’ll take those odds for seki

[frigid valley]

that trillon dolar runner shell isnt looking so bad now

[obsidian plover]

Gimme

I’ll debt bond for a thousand years idk

[nimble canyon]

Honestly, I think I much rather be a biomata.
Human bodies suck.
I much rather pay for a custom, modular anthro one.

[frigid valley]

smh not wanting Mjonir power armour 😔

[gleaming bough]

Need to reboot my shell

[nimble canyon]

Sorry, but without having a fully augmented body, the 450 kg that armour comprises will crush you

[fresh raptor]

Ah, there's the kicker. I just don't want to be stuck in a personality matrix I don't dig.

Like, imagine you load up into your new body (which you will spend your new immortality paying off), and you have the urge to sound like Myles Mackenzie

[nimble canyon]

LMFAO

[still canyon]

who in marathon has the fattest gyatt

[frigid valley]

Durandal

[nimble canyon]

Having cleared metro Prime 4. All the way through twice. I don't think he's that bad. I think the problem is samus.

Samus is the narrative's problem.
The trilogy is so incredibly vast yet MP4 feels like it doesn't fit.

[fresh raptor]

That makes sense. Link was a silent protagonist that everyone yapped to, but you were still able to inject personality via text options

[nimble canyon]

Not only that, but there's just so many things that don't work. The game is beautiful yeah.

[fresh raptor]

Probably Leela, actually

[nimble canyon]

Even with metroid Prime 1, 2, and 3 all of them had Samus communicating via body language and actions, And yet in four it just feels so bland generic.

[frigid valley]

bungie has a habbit of making cool things out of quite fucked up concepts ngl

ah yes you have

Child Super Soldier
Necromanced by some giant fucking Sphere to throw space nukes
Trillon dollars in debt to a mega corpo

👍

[nimble canyon]

They may as well have just rebooted metroid for those that don't play metroid.

I'm actually worried about the series considering metroid Prime 4 and 5 were developed alongside each other, so we'll see 5 next year obviously.

[nimble canyon]

I fucking love the guardian description

[frigid valley]

Am i wrong?

[nimble canyon]

No, you're not. That's the most amusing part because in its basic form that is exactly what the traveller did.

[frigid valley]

even after 10 years of destiny the travel is still
just a giant space Sphere of questionable intent

[fresh raptor]

For Security Officer, I would say "Cyborg installed by rebel group but whoops, kills aliens instead!"

[frigid valley]

I should get around to trying the orignal marathon but oh boy those puzzles look like a hassle maybe ill just play halo 3 again and lose my mind seeing the Marathon glyph fucking everywhere

[fresh raptor]

Although by that logic you could say "Cyborgs installed to squash rebel groups, oops, kills aliens instead" for Spartan 2s in general

[frigid valley]

John Halo moment

[fresh raptor]

Original marathon isn't even that bad, it's just that one map that becomes easy if you look at a guide for one (1) second

[frigid valley]

God I miss Halo

[stone grail]

Locus

[fresh raptor]

Although it does have that fine-comb through the maze kind of design boomer shooters had around that time

[stone grail]

Colony ship for sale, Cheap

[frigid valley]

Thats the one

[gleaming bough]

#Sekiguchisecrets

[frigid valley]

cannot wait for CE remake to be absolute mid and everyone to celebrate its midness

[stone grail]

It doesn’t even need a remake like most games that get one

[nimble canyon]

It's going to be the same situation with that horrible Deus ex remake

[frigid valley]

no no id like a remake done by people that actually get it

[scenic meteor]

They should remake the last of us

[nimble canyon]

I still stand by what I say that horizon zero dawn did not need a remaster.

[nimble canyon]

I love the series but yeah.

[stone grail]

That’s my opinion for most remaster /remakes

[frigid valley]

On UE5 as well

[nimble canyon]

Aaughaaaaargha

[stone grail]

Even ones i consider good like mg delta , it wasn’t needed

[frigid valley]

okay but the blur studios cutscenes for H2A were fucking mint

[nimble canyon]

I wish epic games a very happy go out of business.

[scenic meteor]

Honestly just remake every good game n put in on UE5

[stone grail]

UE5 Minecraft

[frigid valley]

my GPU is on fire

used UE5 for my Games Art masters and im like wow this is a game engine

[scenic meteor]

Peak isn’t it

[frigid valley]

had to do all the renders for the course in it

[stone grail]

UE5 has that look, I see it I know it’s ue5 and I don’t like it

[frigid valley]

all my portflio is from a real render engine

[nimble canyon]

Wow! This game engine has far too many options.** Fucking explodes**

[mental quarry]

No no we need to see the pores out of every character

[kindred vigil]

existed 10 yill ago with rtx

[stone grail]

Use blueprint , don’t worry about the problems it will create later we don’t care about long term

[frigid valley]

Its not a bad engine its just being used badly the issues it has can be overcome but like that requires effort

[kindred vigil]

unironically Minecraft is the only game where rtx makes a difference lwk is that crazy to say

[nimble canyon]

Remember when Todd Howard said 16 times the detail

[frigid valley]

quake RTX

[kindred vigil]

oh yeah that game does it well to

And half life

[stone grail]

Gonna block Neeyth for that

[oak elbow]

What does lwk mean

[frigid valley]

low key

[nimble canyon]

Half-Life RTX was vomit worthy completely lost. Any sense of atmosphere?

[mental quarry]

we gotta remaster the one scifi game which artstyle will never be outdated, instead of remastering and porting games like inFamous and Gravity Rush to PC

[kindred vigil]

WELL IN OTHER GAMES IT JUST ADDS reflections for Minecraft and quake and half life it practically changes the game style

[stone grail]

I forgot rtx memery

[oak elbow]

Oki ty

[mental quarry]

[gleaming bough]

[frigid valley]

what you mean like halo

[kindred vigil]

not in a good way for 2 of those games but it works

[nimble canyon]

I'm still angry about that infamous as a series has been forgotten.

[stone grail]

Oh system shock is a rare good remake that i like that i felt was justified with how clunky and jank the og were

[kindred vigil]

sta1x fuming at this✌️💔🥀

[nimble canyon]

It's because of nightdive

[mental quarry]

I like the Ghost series but FUCK DUDE

[stone grail]

Who

[oak elbow]

I like cod ghosts

[frigid valley]

i want a remake of the OG crackdown

[nimble canyon]

Sucks to suck.

[gleaming bough]

. ....
. ..... . ..

[chrome horizon]

ghost will be next on the chopping block too, trust.

[nimble canyon]

Did anyone hear recently? The creator of call of duty was killed in a car crash.

[kindred vigil]

yes we heard it 1 day ago

[mental quarry]

I mean GoT and probably GoY will be on PC
Unlike infamous....
Or Gravity Rush

[mental quarry]

Brutal way to go ngl...

[frigid valley]

and titanfall god bless its soul

[kindred vigil]

he's also the creator of fallen order, Titanfall, and bf6 (not creator but lead) and apex

[frigid valley]

ohno not apex

[nimble canyon]

Vince Zampella was a video games visionary. On Sunday, Vince Zampella, the co-creator of the Call of Duty video game series, died in a car crash in Los Angeles at the age of 55. He died in a car accident in his Ferrari.

[frigid valley]

he fucked his ferrari into a cliff out of a tunnel like an idiot

[oak elbow]

Yes driving too fast and it understeer and hit that wall

[kindred vigil]

yeah he was speeding down a tunnel unfortunately it cost another life too

[frigid valley]

Me playing EA sports WRC rally

[kindred vigil]

The what and what

[oak elbow]

Subaru impreza

1999

[nimble canyon]

Of course… these people who have accidents always kill someone else, don't they? Same with drunk drivers.

Look if you're going to remove yourself from the gene pool. Try not to do it in a way that takes someone out with you.

God that sucks.

No. If I was shouting, I'd be using exclamation marks and proper punctuation.

This server sometimes gives me conniptions.

[frigid valley]

dw there are others that have given me worse

[kindred vigil]

It's an very unfortunate death but unfortunately it was at the cost of himself speeding with a. Ferrari and not taking safety precautions of the road or using a clear road to speed in

[nimble canyon]

I mean you're a furry like me. Of course there is.

[nimble canyon]

So what you're telling me is just a generic Supercar accident to add to the statistics?

[frigid valley]

Oh no its more about this game and the absolute hate watching that people are doing without even a thought about free thinkking

[kindred vigil]

so while unfortunate, it's also on his fault for stupidity of the actions

[oak elbow]

Yes

[nimble canyon]

Yeah there's a lot of people that do that in here and a complete lack of reading comprehension despite the conversation that they're talking about, only happening a few lines up.

[kindred vigil]

I mean I still feel bad for both regardless but I feel more bad about the other person than him since it was his own actions and he knew better

[oak elbow]

Most people cant handle performance cars

[frigid valley]

dude has all the money
cannot afford to track day the ferrari he has

[nimble canyon]

I've noticed that.

[frigid valley]

i mean yeah even though there setup for road use its not a honda accord from 1998

[oak elbow]

I think it was a 296 GTS

[scenic meteor]

I drive my Lamborghini aventador svj like a Honda accord

[kindred vigil]

do u

[frigid valley]

my favourite has been
ah yes bungie has switched to UE5 and blender and changed all of there VFX workflow to After effects and photoshop and im like

no?

[glacial bane]

sports cars should be driven on tracks not on highways 👍

[frigid valley]

a quick 5 minutes trough some of the artists portfolios on art station will tell you its false

no no you can enjoy your sports car on the road

[obsidian plover]

Merry Christmas ya filthy animal

[obsidian plover]

Merry Christmas

[kindred vigil]

[obsidian plover]

How tf you spend that much at dunkin fr

[stone grail]

Oh okay that makes sense then

I thought it was only you

[bold heart]

Dunkin has gotten way expensive. A sandwich and coffee is close to 10 bucks

[kindred vigil]

3 sandwiches 2 drinks 3 donuts 1 muffin

[stone grail]

They sell sandwiches at dunkin ?

[obsidian plover]

😭

[kindred vigil]

Breakfast sandwichs

[stone grail]

I thought they only did sandwiches

[obsidian plover]

Well fair
Merry foodsmas

[bold heart]

the $6 deal is the only value anymore. bacon egg cheese, hash browns, coffee

[stone grail]

I meant donuts , nice brain fog

[feral dagger]

dunkin food makes me poo doubletime

[stone grail]

Thanks for the info

[feral dagger]

Merry CHristmas

[obsidian plover]

Wake up

[obsidian plover]

Merry Christmas

[kindred vigil]

I was supposed to get a mcgridfle but McDonald's closed

[obsidian plover]

@kindred vigil yeah they are

[kindred vigil]

And I was NOT going to Starbucks so dunkin it is

[obsidian plover]

McGriddy

[obsidian plover]

Starbucks isn’t open today around here

I had to make coffee like a pleb

[feral dagger]

Wish i had a McD's hashbrown or 2 rn

[obsidian plover]

And then I had to fix the smoker

But the smoker is smoking now and nearly up to temp

[stone grail]

Mc muffin

[obsidian plover]

Ps watch those stupid weeds

Apparently some grew up into the smoker during the summer

Found a ton of weeds in the control cavity and in the motor

[stone grail]

What weed

[obsidian plover]

Unwanted plant growth reclaiming our world as we live within it

[scenic meteor]

Rev must be off the yerky

[kindred vigil]

he's French

[scenic meteor]

That’s a good thing 🫦

[stone grail]

Off the what

[scenic meteor]

Cringey American word don’t worry about it sweetheart

[kindred vigil]

basically off the drugs

[frigid atlas]

merry christmas

[kindred vigil]

This latte kinda bitté

[scenic meteor]

Put more cream in it

[stone grail]

Latte

[kindred vigil]

I didnt have my glasses so I just kinda pointed what looked good in my blurry vision

otherwise I would've gotten regular iced coffee 🙄

I also got a jelly donut #pass

[scenic meteor]

Bruh I said Long John

[kindred vigil]

too bad my long john shut down

[scenic meteor]

Not the fish place the donut type

A long John

[kindred vigil]

wait wtf this is real
They didn't have those

Trust me if they had anything like a enclair I would've got that

When's mustard gonna wake up he needs to see my steam gift 🙄

[scenic meteor]

A filled long John omg you’ll be drooling

[kindred vigil]

damn I realized mustard and Scooby the first people I ever gifted anyone online too

[feral dagger]

🤨

[kindred vigil]

Also Scooby I played that game u gifted me on PS4 before, I remembered it I remember enjoying it a bit

[scenic meteor]

Ur lyin so I regifted

[fleet warren]

Good morning and merry Christmas everyone!

[kindred vigil]

I already accepted it + I'm going to play it (I only played it for like 30mins on ps4 it's ok)

[quiet pulsar]

if i lie can i get a gift?

[kindred vigil]

I mean you gifted a game I can run that's a w

[scenic meteor]

I’ll gift u this game called league of legends

[kindred vigil]

I hope you like that blasphemous game

[quiet pulsar]

nvm

[kindred vigil]

I gave mustard a survival game since I know he tends to like them cuz he likes rust and Minecraft so

I gave him Icarus

[glacial bane]

Somebody gift me Star Citizen all ships pack thanks

[scenic meteor]

I will I like the metroidvania style progression games

[stone grail]

I ask Elon for a small loan

[kindred vigil]

And he can run it so no excuses I checked his specs and the game minium 🙄

I wanted to gift Gordon something since he gave me 2 games but I feel like he legit already owns everything he wants

[stone grail]

Remembered that kid from high school who got a high end pc purely to play league back when it didn’t have a graphical update

[glacial bane]

Happy holidays ✌️

[kindred vigil]

oh yeah speaking of league it's getting a overhaul in 2027

[stone grail]

😴 😴 😴 😴 😴 😪 😪 😪 😪 😪

[kindred vigil]

sorry I meant wow

[glacial bane]

wow

[scenic meteor]

I also had two other games I sent but i accidentally sent them for 6-8pm idk which Neeyth #spoiler

[kindred vigil]

BONUS GAMES 😁

No genuinely the way my face lit up when I woke up and checked my phone and got a steam notification for a gift, it was genuinely like a Christmas gift, I know that sounds so gay and corny cause it's online but it does mean a lot Scooby for real

[scenic meteor]

I think it was 3 but I accepted you wouldn’t like one of them

[glacial bane]

Scoobs is sending digital gifts like regular mail with arrival dates. Bro is really living in the future

[kindred vigil]

yeah that's actually crazy why the hell is that a option to send it at a specific time

[kindred vigil]

you spent at least 10$

[scenic meteor]

Idk actually but it was pretty cool I couldn’t send gift cards at a specified time tho so my other friends just got a midnight card

[spring cove]

on chande

[glacial bane]

This warms my old and cold cynical heart.

[kindred vigil]

I know it's just a silly steam gift but it genuinely made my day 😭

[spring cove]

neeyth I'm watching IT for the first time rn come on over

[kindred vigil]

I'm not used to receiving gifts of any caliber so it was kinda different

[stone grail]

Better not be the shitty remake

[kindred vigil]

Why does IT have a remake

[stone grail]

Idk man but it’s so ass

[spring cove]

when was the remake

[kindred vigil]

no #scary

[spring cove]

caary

[kindred vigil]

kelp did u ever play black budget I kinda told you at the end of the tester date oppsies )not like the game worked well anyway)

[stone grail]

Black budget is such a funny meme

[glacial bane]

Black budget was kinda buns

[stone grail]

High guard will sweep

[spring cove]

not yet babay

[kindred vigil]

So true....

[kindred vigil]

U can't play it they have no tester dates but you can save it for the future

[spring cove]

aw man thats okay

[kindred vigil]

I'll be honest u didn't miss much

Like it looks like they copied the HUD of crysis 2, map design of crysis 1 + far cry 1 and the animations of mw19 and battlefield 2042 colour scheme

And like island of Nyne fonts

And also the name is shit sounds like a half life mod

[scenic meteor]

All my extraction shooter friends says it’s hot ass right now but is a cool concept if it works on launch

[stone grail]

It was the game of all times

It was what people claimed Marathon was on the initial play test

[kindred vigil]

yeah we should learn to give games a better chance cause they can genuinely turn around

look at everyone's favorite game of 2022 that game did a massive rebrand ppl forgot how shit it was on release

Also disco Elysium is free on epic store

[scenic meteor]

2022 ? 🤔

[kindred vigil]

Cyberpunk

[scenic meteor]

Damn I thought cyberpunk was earlier

[kindred vigil]

I guess I have no excuse to not play disco now

[glacial bane]

I think extraction shooters should play more with weather systems and immersive sim elements like achieving an objective multiple ways; shooting your way, stealth, hacking etc. It's kinda the perfect genre for it

[kindred vigil]

yes tim

A game is doing that actually, but it looks like a fake anthem lwk (exoborne)

Black budget could absolutely play with weather with its island and time travel setting

Have the map travel forward or back in time as a special condition event and idk ice age that mofo

[scenic meteor]

Stealth would be harder for that in a PvPvE genre but if it was a PvE only extraction shooter would be pretty unique

[kindred vigil]

yooo kelp thanks for hylics I lwk wanted to try this game bruh @spring cove

[kindred vigil]

damn y'all low-key pumping up my library relax

[spring cove]

not the only thing I'll be pumping.... nevermind...

[kindred vigil]

Make it a near requirement for night time maps then, surpessors needed, enemies have higher alert n shit, higher headshot damage so it makes u check ur corners n shit

on some like prime splinter cell

mw19 nighttime mode 👀

[stone grail]

No

[kindred vigil]

Check ur steam notifs @spring cove

[spring cove]

thank you very much mr neeyth i wanted to try this game

🫡 🫡

[ocean cedar]

i just saw the before/after video... god, the one thing i had liked about the alpha was the art style and palette, it seems to be completely lost with the new graphics.

[kindred vigil]

What did u like about the alpha art style ¿

Is it the plastic look?

[ocean cedar]

it looked unique and overly stylized, it gave it personality.

[kindred vigil]

than let's say the realistic shadows and reflections and allat

i get what u mean, I like the newer one better but the old one does have a nice simplified stylized look to it but unfortunately that wouldn't have been enough

Personally the 2023 one is my favorite

[stone grail]

We got a mix of both

[kindred vigil]

yea it's a blend of both worlds for me in terms of alpha and final

[stone grail]

Also YouTube compression doesn’t do the game justice

Playing it was something else

[kindred vigil]

@tetra

yeah I agree playing it is genuinely jaw dropping than how yt makes it look

[stone grail]

That’s why I think they should do another free test before the launch one because it’s way better to give a taste way earlier because YouTube compression didn’t do the game any justice

[kindred vigil]

but, I get where they're coming from tho

but I hope your mind is changed or swayed with the march test

cuz I do think the redux graphical style is overall better for the game and new vision

[ocean cedar]

to me at least it just makes it seem generic though. looks like any Delta Force or Arena Breakout match

[stone grail]

?

[kindred vigil]

ok u kinda lost me

[scenic meteor]

I don’t see either of those games at all

[stone grail]

Yeah it doesn’t even look close to either and now I’m thinking this is bait

[kindred vigil]

I can assure you that do NOT look like delta force

Delta Force is the pinnacle of generic graphics it looks like a battlefield 😭

[ocean cedar]

exactly!

[kindred vigil]

I don't see delta force at all in marathon

Only thing I see in marathon is mirrors edge and wipeout (the racing games)

[warm granite]

Wrong discord Buddy

[wooden roost]

merry christmas fellows 😁

[kindred vigil]

@wooden roost check ur steam notifs please

[wooden roost]

YOOOO SHOUTOUT NEEYTH GOT ME A GIFT YAY 😁

[ocean cedar]

i wouldve agreed with the mirror's edge comparison before the new graphics.
oh well, let's see how it turns out when actually playing but this really killed the enthusiasm i had for it. :/

[kindred vigil]

I hope you like ur new survival game I know you liked rust and I looked it up and I thought mustard would like it

I figured it'd be a cool game for u to play while listening to music and stuff

[stone grail]

Better be scum

[kindred vigil]

It's Icarus

[stone grail]

[wooden roost]

ive seen this game before i think it looked cool

[kindred vigil]

yay my gut was right

[wooden roost]

its got 18 dlcs 😨

[kindred vigil]

I wan originally gonna give u the instrument rust pack cuz you be saying "play a instrument fella" but I wanted to give u an actual game

And that was cheaper than the pack so that's way more value

[stone grail]

[glacial bane]

[stone grail]

Beer does that to me

[scenic meteor]

Yes Tim we are very jolly today

[gleaming hearth]

NOT ANTIREAL HAVING MORE ART STOLEN BY ANOTHER COMPANY

They cant catch a break

[wooden fjord]

This is like the 4th or 5th time it's happened to them lol

[gleaming hearth]

a controller company stole it

[wooden fjord]

But they still have yet to take any countermeasures against plagiarism

[gleaming hearth]

its expensive to have lawyers

[kindred vigil]

damn again

[glacial bane]

whats a controller company

[gleaming hearth]

xbox controller

[wooden fjord]

I think a company that controls a lot of things

[wooden roost]

tim no baiting on christmas

[gleaming hearth]

https://x.com/4nt1r34l/status/2004012288232263973

[glacial bane]

mb

[wooden fjord]

Like Apple has a lot of control I think

[stone grail]

Ask Tim

[glacial bane]

I see

Siri controls everything at Apple

[kindred vigil]

PowerA ofc

[gleaming hearth]

crazy part is she do commissions. So these multi million dollar companies could just pay her.

[stone grail]

I wonder how often it happens where the original artist doesn’t notice it

[gleaming hearth]

safly a lot

[stone grail]

So they just keep doing it with no repercussions

[gleaming hearth]

which sucks. her work is so dope and I legit bought the font she uses and other things to try and replicate it and I can barely even do it.

[kindred vigil]

Why pay if you can steal and have money to make ppl shut up (in some cases)

[gleaming hearth]

Its so unique

[wooden fjord]

Hundreds of times a day with all the AI use these days

[limpid rover]

it isn't a billionair going around "stealing art" its a low level, low energy 'artist' at work passing off stuff they found on a bing search as their own design for a paycheck

[glacial bane]

if they didnt steal they wouldnt be billionaires 👍

[wooden roost]

true

[limpid rover]

not a lie

[wooden fjord]

Tim Apple is the only ethical billionaire I know ❤️

[kindred vigil]

I LOVE stealing!!

[gleaming hearth]

gabe newell?

[wooden fjord]

He would never steal from us hardworking people

[stone grail]

I love stealing , in arc raiders

[kindred vigil]

yes but don't put to much trust in any billionaire please no matter how good they are/look you really never know one day they'll switch up their ethics

[gleaming hearth]

never. he would never make laptops that if you try to fix parts on it kills itself

[wooden fjord]

Does he work at Apple too? I don't know who that is

[gleaming hearth]

no such thing as an ethical billionaire

[stone grail]

Gabe used to work at Microsoft

[thorn sequoia]

on topic for this conversation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4mdMMu-3fc just remembered this video

[gleaming hearth]

founder of valve aka steam

[kindred vigil]

yeah I know but like this glaze culture over certain ones gotta stop it makes ppl forget some things

[glacial bane]

things

[wooden fjord]

I don't think that's on my iPhone

[stone grail]

Let’s not forget about csgo lootboxes

[gleaming hearth]

im being rage baited

[kindred vigil]

gabe is awesome and cool beans and rainbows and unicorn farts but you should side eye anything

[stone grail]

I like Gabe but he’s guilty of a lot of bad things

[wooden roost]

no hes prolly evil

[kindred vigil]

I mean, he did create lwk gambling in video games with TF2 boxes and like what rev said csgo cases

And the nature of a market place in video gaming

[gleaming hearth]

in fairness to him. he did use one of his yachts during the pandemic as a mobile hospital and also uses some of them for marine research

[thorn sequoia]

oh yeah on valve
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMmNy11Mn7g
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9aCwCKgkLo

[gleaming hearth]

at least he is a billionaire I can say doesnt have a shroud of controversy around him

[thorn sequoia]

watch the people make games videos on valve, they're ....interesting

[kindred vigil]

yeah and tim Sweeney the creator of epic games bought a land of wildlife so malls wouldn't kill it ceos can do good things but don't write them off completely

[gleaming hearth]

im not

hes better than most

[kindred vigil]

But still Gabe is a cool dude he just wins by doing lwk nothing but still I'm kinda scared if he's like secretly ultra evil

[thorn sequoia]

oh yeah glaze culture around executives is how we get.... melon husk

[kindred vigil]

when I become a CEO can one of you slime me out if I become evil

And make sure my business stays private and goes to no one

[frigid valley]

could you imagine if anyone but vavle had the market share that steam has

[kindred vigil]

evil

[kindred vigil]

dude genuinely

[mild steppe]

Merry Christmas everyone

[wooden fjord]

Richest man in the world that could be Tony Stark if he wanted to but is instead an insufferable awful person

[kindred vigil]

it's so fucking insane how different Elon is/how we see him, in 2017/2019 this dude was GLAAAAAAAZED to death then he became alt right evil

Well "became" is loose he could've always been that on the dl

[glacial bane]

gabe newell has famously said he doesnt care about individual video game universes like half-life or portal unless it innovates the medium. says a lot about his approach really. steam takes a 30% cut from each and every game on the platform regardless of what it is. steam is filled to the brim with saucy and bad games

[frigid valley]

yeah but tony strak was actually smart

[glacial bane]

they are all the same 👍

[kindred vigil]

well yeah valve doesn't like making shit unless it innovates

[wooden fjord]

If I had hundreds of billions of dollars at my disposal I'd probably be able to be pretty smart too

[kindred vigil]

guess deadlock broke that rule cuz what is that game innovating bro bro

[oak elbow]

Time apple

[wooden fjord]

I've never seen a game that has hero-like characters in a shooter setting before

[kindred vigil]

not listening to you cause I hate the video game and I want to blindly hate it before I realize it's probably actually unique or whatever

[wooden fjord]

And multiple lanes that you have to push up while farming minions and destroying towers? Game is revolutionary

[kindred vigil]

I can think of 5 Roblox games that do this

[wooden fjord]

Yeah all based off of Deadlock

[frigid valley]

The ability for ANYONE to post there game is good
so many people have made careers because steam just lets you publish your game on there for very little sure you'll get stinkers
that no one will buy and asset flips but no one will buy them anyway id rather that then a much more controlling say

[kindred vigil]

Ugh FINE who tryna play deadlock

[wooden fjord]

No I hate that they allow any slop on there, they need to bring back the Greenlight program

[kindred vigil]

lwk they need an no ai rule or at least a game to have a % amount allowed cause holy fuckkk

There so much 0.99 slop daily

[rich breach]

happy holidays

[kindred vigil]

I give you 10 big booms

[wooden fjord]

Merry Christmas!!!!!! Happy holidays BIGBOOM

[rich breach]

[kindred vigil]

[kindred vigil]

I'm revoking ur 10 booms

[rich breach]

[kindred vigil]

[stone grail]

What’s the bigger cope, bloodborne 2 or half life 3

[kindred vigil]

both of them?

[rich breach]

titanfall 3

[kindred vigil]

Half life 3 is like believing in bigfoot

[wooden fjord]

Nahhh the Titanfall guys are making a new game!!

[scenic meteor]

Half life 3 is never happening

[rich breach]

yes its 7 microtransactions away from release

[kindred vigil]

Bloodborne 2 is like believing in loch ness monster

[stone grail]

Diesel Knight looks cool at least but it’s early in dev with a small team

[kindred vigil]

Titanfall 3, that's... believing ur dead friend isn't dead

[wooden fjord]

Yeah I've been enjoying that, I can't wait to try the multiplayer

[tawny fable]

It's real??

[rich breach]

titanfall 3 battlefront 3 gardwarfare 3 half life 3

[tawny fable]

I hope that is real

[kindred vigil]

Titanfall 3 got axed 3 times

[scenic meteor]

Titfanfall 3 is highguard wym

[rich breach]

[wooden fjord]

Yeah go check out Highguard 🙂

[stone grail]

Payday 3, oh wait

[wooden fjord]

[kindred vigil]

highguard is the kenjaku of Titanfall (ha little anime ref 😏)

[wooden fjord]

[rich breach]

its surprisingly in an okay spot right now

[kindred vigil]

u wouldn't get it old guy

[stone grail]

Im high guarding it rn

[kindred vigil]

Okay isn't enough

[rich breach]

still no reason to play it over pd2 but i’m impressed they stuck with pd3

[kindred vigil]

I need a cyberpunk overhaul for pd3

You do NOT make people wait multiple years and hype them up for THAT

[stone grail]

Year 3 of waiting for them to remove the shitty wait at circle objective

[rich breach]

den of wolves

[kindred vigil]

True ....

[stone grail]

That looks neat pls don’t fumble

[wooden fjord]

43% of the 30,617 user reviews are positive

[kindred vigil]

If den falls off we playing gtfo

[stone grail]

Lol

[rich breach]

im praying they don’t fumble den of wolves it has a lot of potential

[scenic meteor]

If GTA 6 falls off we just all quit gaming

[kindred vigil]

yk today has been a rare jolly Christmas

[kindred vigil]

it will fall off cuz you'll realize Rockstar uses the same mission design for every game

[stone grail]

I have no hope in gta 6 so

[rich breach]

1 year delay for jiggle physics

[kindred vigil]

high action starter intro

INSANE SLOG MIDDLE GAME with like 3 aura missions

dope ass emotional final act for the last 3

[tawny fable]

Nah,I won't stop playing game until release the 'Titanfall 3'

[kindred vigil]

As always it will be the community to make the open world and online as fun as possible

[scenic meteor]

Atleast you aren’t holding your breath

[rich breach]

your great grandchildren will be waiting for titanfall 3

[wooden fjord]

I want Diesel Knights, Engines of Destruction, beta decay, and Light No Fire to all be good

[kindred vigil]

twitch streamer with 3.7k views type gaming

[tawny fable]

Lmao 🤣 🤣

[wooden fjord]

Oh and uhhh Beautiful Light

[kindred vigil]

metro last light remake 👀

[rich breach]

guys but highguard!

[wooden fjord]

Highguard HYPE

[kindred vigil]

WE will be playing (me and you and everyone)

[scenic meteor]

Let metro go the ip been squeezed too much

[wooden fjord]

Newest DOA-type game

[kindred vigil]

Bitch it has 3 fucking games

With like a crazy year gap of last light to exodus

[rich breach]

hear me out concord was overhated

[kindred vigil]

Like every doa game yeah

people kinda knee jerked concord

[stone grail]

It was but what we got was kinda ass

[rich breach]

people saw pronouns and hot sauce guy and said woke

[kindred vigil]

I understand why they did but at the same time if split gate can get....a relaunch after THAT diaster to positive reviews.....

Who's to say...

[stone grail]

I still can’t stand half the character design

[rich breach]

yeah no that shit did not deserve a 400 million dollar budget

[stone grail]

Not even look wise, some made no sense for their role like the medic guy

[kindred vigil]

yeah no the game design was dogshit but it had that Bungie flair gunplay which could've won ppl over

[arctic inlet]

I haven't played in any of the alpha's, just got my ps5, but if anyone wants to day 1 with me..

[wooden fjord]

Concord wasn't even over-hated it just didn't exist for 95% of people until it was already dead at launch

[glacial bane]

i agree with this in principle but i dont think steam or game devs would suffer with some curation or verification of the quality of games to uphold a certain standard. its a two-edged sword really. my overall point was that valve/steam and by extension gabe newell, as all the other billionaires, are greedy

[kindred vigil]

I don't have a PS5 but I'll buy a PlayStation portal and a premium subscription to play

[kindred vigil]

lil ouppy we on concord

[rich breach]

400 million dollar budget for the launch marketing to be a few playstation announcements and 2 ads

[kindred vigil]

I think they over spent on it

Also what's ever happening to the fairgame$ game?
