general

[upbeat furnace]

people that mistreat pets or animals in general should be banned from having social interactions

[misty ridge]

It’s also 0:20 so what the fuck

[misty ridge]

Absolutly

I yelled at the guy and he stopped cursing the dog

[astral mortar]

And having their works yeeted into the public domain

[keen robin]

Fuck you, Vega

[astral mortar]

I was watching some horror movies recently for free (bro borrowed me a dvd), as I did not want to pay to rent for them because the director of those movies is a sick fuck

[misty ridge]

Damn, who

[astral mortar]

Jeepers Creepers franchise.

Victor Salva did some really disgusting stuff.

Oh yeah the first movie was fine but the second was the biggest meh in the world, and I hear 3 is terrible

[misty eagle]

have fun

[torn echo]

What did my boy Vega ever do to you?

[astral mortar]

And I hear Reborn (which is not made by Salva) is genuinely considered one of the worst movies ever. I watched some clips, mother of god it looks like a student film

Still wanted to make sure not a penny went to that asshole

[keen robin]

Oh yeah, Victor Salva can burn in hell

[static perch]

yeah, if you treat something so vulnerable and trusting as a dog like that, what does that say about how you treat other people?

[astral mortar]

Tho I'm also bewildered by the system for only letting him serve 15 months for his crimes. People get decades for weed ffs

[keen robin]

I was trying to show that Evangelion is directly inspired by Ultraman

[jovial hatch]

Total Animal Hurter Death

[keen robin]

Pedophiles should be executed.
They've already abandoned their humanity

[astral mortar]

I'm against death penalty in general. Put the biggest assholes in isolation and force them to watch skibidi toilet 24/7

[upbeat furnace]

thats worse

[astral mortar]

Exactly.

[upbeat furnace]

yeah deserved

[lament comet]

the death penalty just sucks by every conceivable metric lol

[astral mortar]

Oh it does. Although people who advocate for 'humane death penalty' also bewilder me, ffs what Doomguy does is more humane than a lethal injection

[keen robin]

I know it has a history of being abused. If death penalty is more enforced, that would be my biggest fear

[astral mortar]

Yeah people shouldn't just have the power to have someone killed, not to mention that forcing someone to persist in the doomed world they created can be considered just as, if not more punishing

(Random morrowind reference)

[slate pasture]

exactly what I think about people that treat animals like that

[untold pecan]

now everything makes sense

[keen robin]

I do believe the death penalty can strike fear into those who'd consider such vile actions.
As a victim of SA, I have no problem with those who permanently mentally scar people for the rest of their lives, receiving the death penalty

Sure, I got over my shit. But the scars remain. My body is always numb

[upbeat furnace]

bruh when i read vile i thought of arch vile

[astral mortar]

Damn, it shocks me to hear that. Yeah I definitely understand some arguments in favor of it. I hope you can heal as much as possible

[jovial hatch]

I just think it's immoral, the death penalty

[untold pecan]

mi hermano, usted habla español?

[jovial hatch]

The Church teaches that it's bad so it's bad. Simple as.

[upbeat furnace]

si hola

[untold pecan]

waos

[lament comet]

the death penatly isn't actually a more effective deterrent than life in prison

[rugged estuary]

Wow I come back to a silly crazy topic!! Joyous day

[static perch]

theres no evidence the death penalty does anything as a deterrent, and infact it can be actively harmful as if someone knows they'll die if they get caught means they can act more recklessly

[astral mortar]

And death penalty isn't always cheaper than life in prison

I get reminded of that guy who accidentally talked the judge into giving him life in confinement without parole 😆
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ8-nEhYBqE

[lament comet]

it's often 1-2 million dollars more expensive than life in prison lmao

[static perch]

like if someone knows their getting the death penalty for killing a guy, they might not stop at just 1

[static perch]

and our prison conditions are already atrocious

[astral mortar]

"Most definitely!" That guy said it with so much confidence, not knowing how much he ruined his own life in that instant

[viscid goblet]

sybau

[jovial hatch]

Oh yeah we talked about this earlier and I didn't respond, but it wouldn't mean destroying the legal system, just going back to how it was for pretty much all of human history

[arctic crane]

whoa, whatda miss

[upbeat furnace]

talking about prision

[jovial hatch]

I still think the death penalty is the most efficient method, but it's also immoral and wrong

Sometimes the most efficient thing is also immoral

[rugged estuary]

I hope my abuser dies!!! Yay!!!

[viscid goblet]

weird ahh

[lament comet]

how is it more efficient when it's so much more expensive😭

[torn echo]

Have them listen to Taylor Swift for 12 hours

[astral mortar]

Firing squad

[arctic crane]

efficient as it removes the problem permanently

[rugged estuary]

“Death of a poet” or whatever album its called

[astral mortar]

It started with me talking about some horror movies I watched and talking about how I don't mind watching them for free because of the director being a sick motherfucker

[lament comet]

so does life in prison

[jovial hatch]

There are certainly ways to expedite it like going back to how most legal systems worked for most of human history

[arctic crane]

they can still commit crimes in prison

[jovial hatch]

Instead of offering a bajillion hearings for it

Honestly we just need less people

[lament comet]

yes let's determine if they're guilty by seeing if this chicken eats or not, and then stone them to death

[jovial hatch]

Systems are too difficult to scale up

[upbeat furnace]

that would only mostly affect prisoners so uh idk

[jovial hatch]

We should just start colonizing planets, spread out more

Simple as

Just colonize mars then all our problems will be over it's literally that simple

[rugged estuary]

All the prisoners fight in a hunger games match
Whomever wins gets a happy meal idk

[torn echo]

Just not Mars. We all know what Happens

[jovial hatch]

True

I mean I wouldn't mind going back to jupiter

[static perch]

i think the death penalty shouldnt exist because you will eventually kill at-least 1 innocent person and that is blood on your hands

[jovial hatch]

I loved my time on Jupiter where I got more stupider

[astral mortar]

Doomguy would send us all back for our own sake. That, or Betruger and his goons will hijack the ship and send some fucks back

[jovial hatch]

I mean I agree but for other reasons as well

[upbeat furnace]

we could go to uranus

[astral mortar]

No

[arctic crane]

yeah I also don't really like death penalty

[static perch]

spend that money we waste on the death penalty to improve the prisons

[jovial hatch]

It's easy to go "we should kill people I don't like" but that's immoral

[torn echo]

Just give him a more competent staff and bigger budget and we can avoid all that

[jovial hatch]

Church sez it's bad mmkay?

https://tenor.com/view/mmmkay-mr-mackey-south-park-alright-okay-gif-19580399

[arctic crane]

agreed

[static perch]

overpopulation is a myth brought to you by eugenics

[rugged estuary]

Amen

[jovial hatch]

I meant more that larger populations stress our legal system and it's difficult to scale things up. It'd be nice to be able to spread to other planets, however that takes a lot of work as well

[arctic crane]

idk bout that

[static perch]

we spend billions and billions of dollars on less important things, the ability and capacity exists, they just wont do it because its not profitable

[astral mortar]

Money talks

[jovial hatch]

I don't think overpopulation is real either, but it'd definitely be nice to be able to spread the population out better

[arctic crane]

we? you guys got billions lying around?

[jovial hatch]

Well I say I don't think it's a real problem, it could conceivably be an issue if we stay constrained to earth. I don't want megacities

[static perch]

i dont understand wanting to go to the inhospitable radioactive deadly cold no air red dust covered planet instead of just fixing our problems here

[rugged estuary]

Yeah, Monopoly money

[jovial hatch]

Looking at pictures of insanely dense cities gives me the heeby jeebies

[viscid goblet]

[astral mortar]

People spend billions on repairing some art piece instead of solving problems 💀
Notre Dame moment

[jovial hatch]

Like look at how packed Cairo and Detroit are

[astral mortar]

India

[jovial hatch]

Yeah

Nightmarish crowded conditions, like Kowloon

[rugged estuary]

Industrialization is to blame for that

[jovial hatch]

I don't think that's the problem tbh

[static perch]

thats why we need to fix the legal system, hard or not its something you have to do

[jovial hatch]

Easier said than done but yeah

[astral mortar]

It does show that many governments have rather... skewed priorities

[static perch]

it is, you can go research it if you want to

[jovial hatch]

Well Notre Dame was mostly undertaken by the Church iirc

[static perch]

we as in society as a whole

[jovial hatch]

Yeah Notre Dame was done by donations

Oh nvm gov did some too

I think restoring cultural heritage sites is fine too

[astral mortar]

Feels like they always have (I don't mean conserving heretiges that's fine)

[jovial hatch]

As a taxpayer in America I'm more than glad that my tax dollars go to the restoration and preservation of cultural heritage sites here

[static perch]

idk, i dont see anything nothing wrong with engaging in preservation or creativity

[jovial hatch]

Of course it's also my job to do the preservation, so I maybe have somewhat of a personal bias lol

[arctic crane]

yeah I guess you're right

[jovial hatch]

I literally work in conservation, but personally I think that's important

And it's good to spend money on this

[arctic crane]

https://tenor.com/view/we-live-in-a-society-society-joker-gamers-rise-up-gang-weed-gif-13919217

[static perch]

all governments have fucked priorities, all you can do is live with it, work around them, or revolt and that last one isnt easy

[jovial hatch]

Well I don't think restoring Notre Dame is a good example of bad priorities, but yes that's true

[static perch]

i didnt say that i just said it as a general statement

[jovial hatch]

Oh I was referring to what the person you were replying to cited as an example of bad priorities

[hollow compass]

If we colonised every planet I could have 1 for every day of the week

Warhammer 40,000 taught me that conquering the Galaxy is a great idea

[jovial hatch]

I mean genuinely, what's wrong with colonizing the galaxy?

[arctic crane]

we just need an emperor of mankind

[jovial hatch]

I don't see any other life out there, if it's possible we might as well do it

[jovial hatch]

Yeah, I mean it's a decent movie, just don't like that they kill off newt in the beginning

[arctic crane]

[hollow compass]

just be careful where it sends you or else your ship well be sent to hell and get possessed lol

thats not how physics works

[hollow compass]

I think we should just use the Nether to transport further

TRU

We can move 8 blocks for every 1 block

That's super fast

[arctic crane]

idk I'm not a physician

[astral mortar]

Just generate black holes, Event Horizon-style. And hope you don't end up in hell

[jovial hatch]

Space is actually hell

[arctic crane]

[static perch]

you cant just generate a blackhole

[jovial hatch]

Aliens are actually demons

[astral mortar]

Reminds me of the Dark Forest theory

[abstract ingot]

True

[arctic crane]

not a blackhole, a wormhole

[jovial hatch]

Occultist Aleister Crowley wrote about his encounters with demons and they looked identical to the common depictions of aliens

whats a good doom game for a new doom player?

[arctic crane]

2016

[astral mortar]

DOOM 2016 is my first idea

It was my first doom game and it is awesome

Very simplistic grindhouse vibe, but still a decent challenge, and it looks gorgeous and it has aged gracefully

[keen rune]

everytime I play a mech level in doom tda now I just think of Evangelion

[ionic perch]

I think doom 1 is a good pick

[astral mortar]

I don't like Evangelion (Ok i don't hate it all, I just don't like Asuka lol) so I just think about Doom TDA when playing it

I feel like I'm slaughtering Kaijus

[buoyant egret]

do you want that old school vivbes or more modern? id just say start with 2016 if you want modern or DOOM 93 the OG if you want to build from there

[astral mortar]

Personally I'm unsure about DOOM 1 being a good pick

It is iconic still and episode 1 is amazing, but episodes 2 and 3 aren't good imo

[arctic crane]

blasphemy

[astral mortar]

And it is not as newcomer-friendly as the newer games. It still needs to be played by any doom player eventually

[sullen yarrow]

Episode 4 😋

[astral mortar]

RAAAAUGH🗣️

ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217?!

WHAT?!

[ionic perch]

I think I may have technically started with doom 2016 but then I played doom 93 and it's now my favorite

[astral mortar]

You are evil.

[hollow compass]

Tbf every Doom game works as a good entry point, really depends on your gaming experience

[keen rune]

I'm not even sure how much hrs I have, I've beaten it so many times and I've done pretty much most popular mega wads

[arctic crane]

nah

[astral mortar]

That decepticon really asking that question like a cop interrogating 👮

[astral mortar]

Whats that

[astral mortar]

Hell.

[ionic perch]

I haven't tried many wads yet, other than the build in ones

[astral mortar]

Whats it about lol

[keen rune]

nah play scythe 2 or sunlust before playing doom 1 and 2

[astral mortar]

There's supposedly a story but it's really just a 32-level map pack from hell that is hard as fuck

Ohhh wait is it like for doom

[torn echo]

Getting relentlessly fucked up the arse by chaingunners, archviles and revanants non-stop

[astral mortar]

Ohhhh

Scythe 1 I'll give points for being good at lulling a player into a false sense of security
It goes from being pretty easy in the first two episodes to being absolute hell in episode 3

[timid sierra]

I’ve heard about plutonia before and that it’s really hard, what’s a similar nudoom equivalent in difficulty?

[astral mortar]

I thought it was a different game😭

Read it wrong

Im dumb

[astral mortar]

I guess any doom game on Nightmare lol

[keen rune]

scythe 2 is prob my favorite mega wad, plutonia Is #2

[sullen yarrow]

Plutonia isn't a mega WAD as it isn't a PWAD 🤓

[torn echo]

Doom 3 isn’t too bad on nightmare. Done that a good few times now

[keen rune]

beating go 2 it pistol start single segment was so mentally rewarding when I beat it

[astral mortar]

I've done it once... with extensive save-scumming lol

[keen rune]

lmao, I forgot what PWAD stands for

[torn echo]

A lot of saving!

[astral mortar]

DOOM 2016 on Nighmtare started off horrible but it became very manageable on ce I maxed Siege Mode, SSG and Ammo Rune for BFG

And for TDA on Nightmare (which I did without weapon upgrades as part of a challenge), it started off tough, then got kinda easy, then ended up touch as nails

[sullen yarrow]

Patch WAD, it's the mod WAD. The IWAD is the WAD file you load the mod into, which is what Plutonia is

[keen rune]

ah ok thanks

[buoyant egret]

i just started TNT Evilution its vg so far

[astral mortar]

Is the plutonia only for the old doom game?

[ionic perch]

I think it starts out pretty well but then gets kinda boring at the end. I like the new music though

[astral mortar]

Plutonia is my least favorite official doom release. Bit of a hot take but it is what it is

[torn echo]

Plutonia Experiment and TNT Evilution was what Final Doom was

[astral mortar]

Ohh okay

[torn echo]

Legacy of Rust was pretty fun

[astral mortar]

Do you guys ever just rip and tear?

[torn echo]

Nice to see some of the unused stuff from the first games

[keen rune]

I still need to playthrough legacy of rust

seems kinda hard from what I've played

[torn echo]

Until it is finished?

[astral mortar]

Perhaps..

Wait isn’t it like until its done

[pine delta]

But PWAD stands for Plutonia wad and it clearly is Plutonia

[arctic crane]

until it is settled

[buoyant egret]

new music is fire on the D1+2

[torn echo]

Until it is completed

[astral mortar]

Yes

[buoyant egret]

worst is when you quick save instead of quick load on the death screen. Pistol start RIP

[torn echo]

I’ve saved just as a revenant rocket killed me at the end of a level. Had to restart

[buoyant egret]

im such a save scummer, any progress where my health isnt mashed i save

[torn echo]

D3 nightmare for sure

[buoyant egret]

might play some TNT now tbh

[astral mortar]

Try some Sunder

[torn echo]

Probably have an easier time beating Halo on Legendary with manual saving too!

[keen rune]

doom 1 and 2 nightmare is so fucking hard

[astral mortar]

Alright mister rico i apologize 😔

[steep hound]

Wolfenstien underrated or blazkowiczated

[pine delta]

This is a series with like 10 games and most people only care about 3 of them so Id say yeah it's underrated

[steep hound]

Damn

It really winkled itself down the hans ladder

[pine delta]

I don't think even the developers know there were games before Wolfenstein 3D

[slate pasture]

I was planning to sleep but wanted to listen to music so Instead of putting on a random playlist I made a sleeping playlist I took 1 hour adding music too

[carmine gust]

I've played every Wolfenstein title

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is really good

[slate pasture]

I'm not tired anymore ..

[pine delta]

I tried to, I immediately decided to skip the first two. They really have not aged well

Some of it's mechanics had to have been weird back then too

[astral mortar]

Bruh this first doom is so awesome

I wonder how eternal is

[pine delta]

Like taking several real world minutes for your character to open boxes

I understand what they were going for, with this being a stealth game they wanted to make looting for ammo more tense, but it really didn't need to take that long

[upbeat furnace]

hallo

[carmine gust]

Well it was made by one guy for a computer that could only handle like 4 colors or something

[astral mortar]

miau

[upbeat furnace]

what

[pine delta]

Boxes sometimes taking 2 minutes to open was a diberate choice unbound by technical limitations

[keen rune]

how's everyone doing? :3

[astral mortar]

I also hear the first wolfenstein is brutally confusing

[astral mortar]

oh could be worse

[pine delta]

The weird movement scheme was absolutely a product of making a twin stick shooter for keyboard but it's been 40 years since the game came out and now it's just confusing because no game works like that anymore

Got some good grades. Tried out the Jeepers Creepers franchise (for free of course by borrowing a DVD since I am not gonna give money to that vile director)

[keen rune]

oh yeah isn't that director literally insane

[astral mortar]

Absolutely.

[carmine gust]

I'm saying it's a product of its time

[astral mortar]

First film was good, second film was a big meh, I have not tried the third but even the fans hate it, and I hear the fourth is considered one of the worst films of all time

[keen rune]

yeah the first was genuinely great

such a shame honestly

[tawny siren]

I never even knew there was a second one, let alone a fourth one. I liked the first though.

[keen rune]

i love the Halloween movies

1 2 3 4 and one of the newer ones

[astral mortar]

First one was indeed good. Second one... eh. A bit boring sometimes but some cool moments.

I did not find either of them scary actually, not at all. Ok the final shot of the first film was a bit creepy but overall, eh.

[dark path]

Jason Go brrr

[sage kite]

[keen rune]

do you like the Halloween movies?

[buoyant egret]

Director is also a convicted pedophile

[astral mortar]

do you like scary movies?

[keen rune]

the original halloween is one of my favorite movies ever

[carmine gust]

Castle Wolfenstein, Beyond Castle Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein 3D, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein RPG, Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, Wolfenstein: Youngblood

[astral mortar]

I know, I legit just said that I didn't want to pay money for the franchise because I refuse to pay money for the work of that sick fuck

I borrowed some DVDs instead for free because Victor Salva does not deserve even a penny from me.

[carmine gust]

oh wait we're talking about films

[buoyant egret]

Jeepers creepers

[astral mortar]

I watched 1 and 2 original waaaaay back when

[dark path]

Yes, coz I like staring at movies that make grown-ass men feel uneasy, like Silence of the Lambs

[carmine gust]

Never cared for slashers

[keen rune]

oh yeah, there's gonna be new jason movies too

[carmine gust]

Actually, I like Chucky weirdly enough

other slashers are sorta just eh

[keen rune]

Chucky scared the HELL outta me when I was younger

[astral mortar]

I liked Skinamarink when I watched it a couple months ago

[keen rune]

Haven't seen that

[astral mortar]

Yeah the background behind the films is more disturbing than the films themselves.

It's ironic how so often, directors and villain actors in horror films are very nice people irl, only for Victor Salva to be a disgusting sick asshole

[tawny siren]

Friday the 13th is my jam. I can sit and watch every one of'em back to back. Granted I'm making jokes and laughing the whole time, but that's me with literally any film

[keen rune]

ik it's not really horror but squid game 3 is gonna be a fun watch

[buoyant egret]

Halloween just nailed it first time and is still peak

[keen rune]

they're such fun movies

[astral mortar]

It's not a very typical horror movie
It's recorded by cameras in a really dark house

a lot of still angles

[carmine gust]

A lot of those early slashers got it right the first go

[tawny siren]

Yeah I love'em haha

[astral mortar]

I watched the terrifier franchise recently. yeah that's gnarly

[carmine gust]

You know what horror film I love? Cabin In The Woods

So good

[keen rune]

oh yeah lol

[buoyant egret]

The Thing 1982 first time watch is 100/10. the unknown, the horror, the tension

[keen rune]

I liked 2 the most

[astral mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/terrifier-gif-26980283

[tawny siren]

Terrifier is wild, but I love Art the Clown. He's so good at being a mime haha

[astral mortar]

It's also intersting how Art's actor is a great guy irl

[carmine gust]

Art is a good horror character. Also @winged sigil loves him too

[tawny siren]

I have to respect the man behind the mask

[astral mortar]

holy shit I met aggronize before lmao

In champion's respite

I was gonna try out Terrifier
I also wanted to see the blair witch project and the lake mungo movie (I can't remember the full name)

[keen rune]

terrifer 2 is brutal but beautiful at the same time. the soundtrack is really good

[buoyant egret]

Anyone ever see The Hitcher with Rutger Hauer not the newer one?

So so good

He’s such a good actor

[astral mortar]

Other scary movies I watched recently...

Speak no evil (both versions), good films, remake surprisingly good for a remake made 2 years after the original. James McAvoy nails it well

M3gan (2.0 is looking hype. Oh yeah original is decent)

DOOM 2005 (lmao this goofy ahh film)

[carmine gust]

The Mist was a movie I wished I could have seen in theaters

[keen rune]

Karl urban in doom is really nice

[carmine gust]

I read a lot of Stephen King, so I was very stoked to see my favorite story of his get adapted

[keen rune]

yeah, what a movie

[upbeat furnace]

i wouldnt call doom 2005 a scary movie

[astral mortar]

it is considered a horror movie but I did not find it scary at all. It's goofy as all hell

[carmine gust]

Surprisingly accurate to the book. Everything up to the very end, and King admits the movie ending is better

[keen rune]

omfg, the movie ending is so good

[astral mortar]

Ngl almost no horror movie scares me. There are exceptions.

I watched Freddy vs Jason recently. The concept of Nightmare on Elm Streets scared me for so long, watching it felt like overcoming something. And it was fun as hell.

[keen rune]

such a crazy scene

I'll probably never watch the sinister movies. way too many jumpscares

[astral mortar]

Yeah I hear King isn't the best at ending stuff

I did read one short story of his (The Jaunt) yeah that one had a great ending. I find myself quoting it way too often

I watched Barbarian a couple weeks ago and when it introduced Mother that scared the shit outta me

the movie feels so uneasy the entire time

[keen rune]

pet sematary is probably my favorite king movie/book

[carmine gust]

The story ends on a very flat note. Main character just leaves his final words in a hotel and says they'll keep driving. No military, no closure, just ambiguity

[tawny siren]

Pet Sematary used to give my older sister real bad nightmares because way back in those days I looked exactly like Gage from the film. I look nothing even remotely similar to that these days with my hair having gone super dark and now starting to gray (not to mention the beard), but back then I was the spitting image of that kid

[astral mortar]

I hear Justin Long (same guy who played Darry in Jeepers Creepers) is in that. He was good in Jeepers Creepers, shame that the franchise got such an ugly end with Victor Salva being a convicted pedo, combined with the last two films being seen as garbage even by fans.

[winged sigil]

i have this gif favorited lmao

[astral mortar]

Lol fair. I think I remember you from Champion's Respite

[keen rune]

omg

terminator 2 is another amazing movie

[tawny siren]

T2 is fantastic

[keen robin]

Am I the only one who enjoys the more fucked up side of horror?
Stuff like Tetsuo, Martyrs, and Possum.

[keen rune]

I feel like t2 and doom have surprising alot in common

[upbeat furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/marvel-fan4stic-fantastic-four-the-thing-say-that-again-gif-9345984830195785978

[tawny siren]

I wish I could say it was timeless, but sadly it's not... but there will never come a time where I say no to watching it with friends

[keen rune]

maybe not alot but I still see inspiration

[astral mortar]

I was just talking about liking terrifier films lol
And I read Crossed comics without issue. Tho I don't like those comics as much... because I found them a bit boring. The gore didn't faze me.

[tawny siren]

I haven't been properly introduced to any of that, so my best answer is maybe, maybe not.

[astral mortar]

And also because Crossed feels waaay too tryhard and self-serious for its own good.

[keen rune]

martyrs is really good. I'll prob only watch it once and never again

[vast kiln]

So here's a guy of doom

[astral mortar]

I have a bigger problem with frustration horror sometimes (aka horror where the main character consistently acts like a complete dumbass, like the original Speak No Evil)

[keen robin]

Don't worry, Slayer. I'm alot better today.
I manage from day to day. I still love life and mankind

[hollow compass]

One of my favourite recent horror movies, The Substance

[astral mortar]

🫡

[keen robin]

I need to watch that

[astral mortar]

Oooh I forgot to mention that. Yeah I also enjoyed that one. I even have a gif favorited of it

https://tenor.com/view/the-substance-film-confused-look-around-margaret-qualley-gif-6144007324417415939

[hollow compass]

It's peak, favourite movie from last year

[keen robin]

Anyone watched Late Night with the devil or Robert Eggers Nosferatu?

[hollow compass]

No and yes

[astral mortar]

Demi and Margaret cooked (and bled)

[astral mortar]

an unfortunate world we live in

Fortunately it's rare for the people behind horror films to be abhorrent fucks, but it still sucks when it happens.

Tho yeah a lot of directors and actors of villains for horror are good people irl, interestingly enough

[keen robin]

I haven't forgot, Slayer.
Crossed is really just an eboy comic after awhile.

Terrifier is wonderful. Terrifier 1 is still my favorite

[keen rune]

oh yeah that's peak

[astral mortar]

Terrifier 1 might be my least favorite of the franchise (mostly because of the pacing, ironic since it is the shortest) but lord the special effects team had a field day there. And the budget was low

[keen robin]

That's the way I feel with, Where the dead go to die.
Cuz it's a shit horror movie. Lol

[astral mortar]

Some poeple still say T1 had one of the gnarliest kills

[carmine gust]

Practical effects >>>>>>>>>>> CGI

[keen robin]

You mean the hacksaw death? Lol

[astral mortar]

Oh lord I've heard of that. I haven't seen it and it's on my no-watch list

[astral mortar]

yes

[astral mortar]

How I feel about 1987's Hellraiser. That movie looks great to this day. Also the cenobites look badass

[keen robin]

It's horrendous. Just boring to watch.
I was waiting for it to be over with

[tawny siren]

Oh do we refer to Terrifier these days when we say T1 and T2? I meant Terminator 2 when I said T2 earlier, but I love all three Terrifiers all the same haha

[carmine gust]

I used to have a morbid curiosity with that film, then watching it for the first time I was let down. Not what I was hoping it to be

[astral mortar]

I knew you were referring to Terminator 2 but I also see people use T2 for terrifier 2

[astral mortar]

Oh don't worry Hellraiser is not a high-quality franchise lol

[tawny siren]

Okay I wasn't sure for a moment there haha

Hellraiser is one of few that I struggle to get into yeah.

[keen robin]

I only use T1, T2, etc for Terminator.
Terrifier I just call Terrifier

[tawny siren]

I do better with Wishmaster and that is not exactly what I would call good

[astral mortar]

The first three are good and I didn't bother with the rest. Hellraiser 5 to 8 started out as unrelated spec scripts, and 9 (which I did watch out of morbid curiosity) is just a straight dud

[carmine gust]

I collect rubik's cubes as a hobby and people will show me the lament configuration as a joke every now and then

[tawny siren]

Same.

[astral mortar]

I also hear that Hellraiser 5-8 is just low-budget and poorly made direct-to-dvd stuff

[keen robin]

Anyone watched phantasm?

[carmine gust]

anything made after the third of any horror franchise is safe to assume to be awful regardless of the first's quality

[astral mortar]

Heard of it

[carmine gust]

That's the silver ball one right?

[astral mortar]

BOYY

[keen robin]

And I hope Terrifier ends with Terrifier 4

[astral mortar]

I hear they gon' reveal art's origins

[carmine gust]

I learned about Phantasm from a Doom 3 mod

[astral mortar]

I have no idea how to feel about it until I'll see it

Another horror movie I watched in the past few years was Event Horizon. Yeah I do see some of it in DOOM 3 and 2016

[carmine gust]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia-wx3uErhw

[keen robin]

Seriously? Why?
Art's origin is the last thing I'm interested in. Sure, you can expand the lore of heaven and hell. But I don't care to know art personally, I love him as he is.

[astral mortar]

I think it can work in theory, but sometimes mystery is nice

[carmine gust]

Mystery ruins any horror

Doesn't mean it's a bad thing per se, just you make it stop being scary when you do

[keen robin]

I feel overexplanation can ruin horror.
Sure, I'd love to know more depending on the subject. Like Predators, cuz their hunter culture is interesting

[keen rune]

yeah I prefer the mystery of it

[carmine gust]

Oh you know what other horror franchise I like? Tremors

[keen robin]

Fucking classic

[astral mortar]

Not sure how many episodes i'd consider horror but my favorite show is definitely black mirror

[keen robin]

I still remember that farmer's head scaring me. Like how they find the remains of his head in his crop field

[carmine gust]

His hat!

[upbeat furnace]

hola

[keen robin]

Black Mirror is horror.
It's essentially like The Twilight Zone, Tales from the crypt, or Del Toro's Cabinet of curiosities.

[astral mortar]

Yeah there's some episodes that are really sweet and soft but a lot of others are just distressing lol

[keen robin]

Speaking of black mirror, I think Netflix erased the interactive movie.
So now it's lost media

[astral mortar]

but very good. When I watched Season 7 episode 2 I just said 'that was the most uncomfortable 50 minutes of my life and I loved it'

HOLY SHIT bandersnatch got removed?

I haven't played Bandersnatch in years but still, I have fond memories of it

[keen robin]

I thought Bandersnatch was interesting as fuck

[astral mortar]

Oh I adored it

My first 'playthrough' was 90 minutes (during which I got the bittersweet ending after some bad endings) and I loved every second

Black Mirror's common people episode left me in silence

When the plot is predictable but you really wish it wasn't because you know it is gonna end badly

Also like how Black Mirror has cringy awkward moments but they are 100% intentional and acted out correctly

[keen robin]

Was that the episode where these normal people are actually way more fucked than meets the eye?
Like how one of the characters is a pedophile?
And someone organizes this game of sorts, seemingly trying to get them to kill each other for freedom, only to have their false sense of freedom pulled out from beneath them?

[astral mortar]

That was shut up and dance, that one was also painful to watch but directed and written very well
Common People was a season 7 episode

[keen robin]

Painful to watch?
Like boring or?

[astral mortar]

Mostly just uncomfortable. Not boring at all, quite the oppoiste

[keen robin]

If it can make the viewer uncomfortable, that sounds swell

[astral mortar]

Like, watching the main character go to insane lengths to keep his darkest secrets safe. It's second hand embarrassment taken to an extreme, but it doesn't feel unnatural or unintentional

Ima need to take a nap after this. I wonder if I'll be circle-strafing in my dreams

[keen robin]

Least you're capable of dreams, Slayer.
I just past out into black and wake up whenever. Or to my alarm, when I'm working. Lol

[arctic crane]

silent hill 2

[keen robin]

Og or?

[arctic crane]

remake, never played og

[keen robin]

Seven hundred fucking pigeons, eat this man. Jk

[silver kite]

guys i'm beating doom the dark ages in pandemonium and i already have every melee weapon but, which one should i use?

[arctic crane]

fist

[arctic crane]

yeah I'm usually late to allot of ongoing franchises

[silver kite]

why

[arctic crane]

damage boost

[rugged estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-doom-slayer-doom-guy-doom-the-dark-ages-cute-gif-12753411322836635057

[arctic crane]

fastest

[silver kite]

oh good point

[keen robin]

I feel the only horror games that has left a mark on me is Dead Space and Cry of Fear.

Course, there's others I've played and loved. Like Resident Evil, Evil Within, Signalis, I'm Scared, and Prey.
I actually need to finish Prey and Signalis

[keen robin]

And chain attack AoE with stun. Alongside that damage bonus

[arctic crane]

only horror game that I've played that I actually consider horror is outlast

cuz as soon as I get a gun in a horror game its no longer horror

https://tenor.com/view/doomguy-evil-grin-gif-20903082

[keen robin]

I don't view it in that sense necessary.
Like take Dead Space 1 and compare it to Dead Space 3.

Just cuz we can defend ourselves doesn't diminish the horror aspect. It all depends on how everything is taken into consideration

Dead Space 3 is barely horror cuz of how they handled the action.

Evil Within is another perfect example of horror done right. Even despite the fact we can defend ourselves

[arctic crane]

I've only played dead space 1 (remake again) and i see the horror aspect I just wouldn't call it a horror game

that's just me tho

[keen robin]

Gus, trust me Dead Space 1 & 2 are definitely horror.

Dead Space 3 has horror it's just lost due to how action focused it became.
Dead Space 1 & 2 has action, yes. But it doesn't give us missile launchers modified with status and corrosive elements, with a black hole underbarrel. On top of mods that negate any self damage.

Maybe playing RE7, RE1R, or RE2R would give you a better idea of what I mean.
Course, those are survival horror in comparison to Dead Space's action horror

[arctic crane]

like I said bro if I get a gun it becomes an action game for me

[arctic crane]

I've played re7 and village

[gritty heart]

Resident Evil had almost always been an action-horror series, especially when you compare it to like Silent Hill.

Dead Space is also action-horror, DS3 just lost the plot a little

[keen robin]

What'd you think of those games?
RE8 is plagued with pacing issues

[keen robin]

I think RE3 or RE4 is when that started to fully take shape

[arctic crane]

I liked both

[gritty heart]

I just rebeat Village on PC, saw it on sale for $9.99 and decided to give it a playthrough again.

Solid 8/10 imo, not as good as Biohazard

[arctic crane]

I slightly like re village more

[gritty heart]

I agree, RE4 was when it started to skew more towards action, RE3 was a close middle ground. Ironically I think the RE4 remake has more horror in it than the original lol

[carmine gust]

I love RE4

One of my moderators needs to play it, but HE'S A COWARD

HE KNOWS WHO HE IS

[keen robin]

As far as environments and enemies, most definitely.
Neither one is really scary.

Kinda hard to feel scared when I first got into horror around the age of 9 with Dead Space. Lol

[gritty heart]

Same, one of my favorite games ever made. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve replayed it, and I’ve owned every single version of the game, including the phone version 🤮

[carmine gust]

Same

[keen robin]

Wii?

[carmine gust]

100% same

[gritty heart]

Oh yeah bought that day one, loved the controls, even though they made the game way easier lol

[arctic crane]

kinda hard to feel scared when I can blast the enemies skull wide open

[carmine gust]

The only thing I have left to get out of that game is learning to speedrun it. Last few times I played it was a randomizer

I did have a programming project on the backburner to make a save editor, but the darn thing uses a CRC validation I can't quite crack

[keen robin]

Wii and VR are fun. I actually have RE4VR for my Meta S3 VR.

[arctic crane]

like alien isolation, I game which I like was almost a horror game, but then they gave you the flamethrower

[carmine gust]

Furthest I got was solving where the inventory was for every save file

[gritty heart]

I bought a MQ2 just for RE4VR and then I bought a PSVR2(HUGE MISTAKE) for RE8 and RE4R VR lmao

[arctic crane]

I haven't played any horror in vr, maby then I'd be actually scared even with a gun idk

[gritty heart]

I loved alien isolation but man it was too long, the pacing was so bad at times

[keen robin]

I believe the flamethrower only wards off the xenomorph. And I think sometimes it doesn't work at all

[gritty heart]

Yeah he straight up ignores it sometimes if you don’t use it properly or the AI just decides it’s time for you to die xD

[keen robin]

I only bought my Meta for RE4 and Cod Zombies mods in VR

[arctic crane]

yeah I wards it off but it's the same thing as killing enemies in other games, it removed the problem in current time. It only doesn't work if you fire too late while the alien chases you

[unkempt fern]

I literally just hid in a locker for 20 minutes hoping the alien would chill out but it kept sprinting and screaming 🙀

[keen robin]

Be like that. Lmao

[arctic crane]

I do gotta praise the ai of the alien, it only gets smarter as the game progresses

[keen robin]

@unkempt fern
Is your pfp from that sheep zombie movie?

[keen robin]

I'm thinking of Black Sheep

[arctic crane]

I wish dead space 2 also got a remake but I guess 1 remake sold purely

or just a re-released on currect gen if not remake

[keen robin]

Dead Space sold well.
Just EA is a greedy dumbass wanker

[arctic crane]

that's sad then

[harsh girder]

Do y'all like Titanfall 2 or DOOM: The Dark Ages more

[arctic crane]

never touched titanfall2

[unkempt fern]

A dead space 4 would be cool
I actually enjoyed Callisto protocol
And finishing move does a great ost for that yoo

[arctic crane]

dead space ended with 3

can't be a 4

[unkempt fern]

I am wondering if id told finishing move "no guitars" like they did with Gordan
And they just said F it, and went with heavy guitars

[keen robin]

I need to replay Callisto Protocol.
I'm glad someone else is aware of Finishing Move's work outside of Doom TDA.
They also made music for Borderlands 3

[keen robin]

Both
TitanFall 2 for PvP. And TDA for single player

[unkempt fern]

Their work with Callisto protocol is like kinda ambient

They went hard for tda

[keen robin]

I figured.
Ambient can still be very good.
I mean look at Dead Space

[unkempt fern]

I'm hyped for borderlands 4. Never played 3.

[harsh girder]

I mean I generally like single player over multiplayer, so I'd pick TDA

But TF2 is still gr8

[unkempt fern]

Borderlands 4 looks more like Rage 3

[gritty heart]

I didn’t dislike Callisto Protocol, it felt like it was one of those “tech demo” linear launch titles(like Ryse: Son of Rome), but I definitely don’t think it was worth $70.

I picked up the gold edition on PC to play through it for like $20 or so and I enjoyed my time with it, but they did make some improvements from launch and the ending to the DLc was kinda nuts lol

[unkempt fern]

Yeah it was def tech demo

Combat was good tho. Dream sequence was good. Just kinda didn't finish...

[gritty heart]

Me and my wife could NOT get into BL3, we loved 1 & 2 and we thought the gameplay of 3 was great but we wanted to end ourselves everytime somebody talked lmao

So we’re hoping BL4 is better on that front

[unkempt fern]

Yeah Handsome Jack was solid

[gritty heart]

Rage 3 sounds like a good time, but ironically I thought Rage 2 was forgettable compared to Rage, which had its own problems with that ending lmao

[unkempt fern]

I tried the pre sequel and tiny Tina. Okay, but not the real thing

[gritty heart]

True, pre-sequel was eh and Wonderlands had potential as like a $40 spinoff but not a full fledged game imo

[unkempt fern]

Rage 2 first expansion is amazing

Where you are on the island with skyscrapers

[astral mortar]

[harsh girder]

People really say Dark Ages has identical or just slightly better graphics than Eternal?:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1385264568158388234/1385431075525890118/20250619_182127.jpg?ex=68560abc&is=6854b93c&hm=663603f131e660dee447fdd9123db5d4b848f7ec3ba02c97b3df7a30cbf18c32&

[astral mortar]

Is that your backyard

[harsh girder]

Like to me even without the new Path Tracing update, Dark Ages looked atleast a generation or two more advanced than Eternal.

Idk

I feel Eternal to TDA is a much bigger graphical jump than 2016 to Eternal was

[harsh girder]

I wish I had a backyard this gorgeous

[gritty heart]

To be fair you don’t have a lot of time to look in Doom Eternal so the memory could look better than what they actually remember lol

TDA has a lot of open exploration and it’s much slower so it makes sense they’d really make the visuals shine, especially with the emphasis on world building this time

Really wish we got more of the ||cosmic realm||

[harsh girder]

Tbh this kinda looks like Red Dead 2 ngl

When DOOM looks like Red Dead

[rich wagon]

I'd imagine the cosmic realm and hell will be merged together in dlc

[rich wagon]

Really? I usually sightsee after an arena fight

[gritty heart]

That would be awesome, would love to see that. Doomslayer saving realities in n a dlc lol

[rich wagon]

It's not like you can't stop

[gritty heart]

I’m being a bit cheeky in reference to how much faster the game is, but unironically I do think there’s a much greater emphasis on sightseeing in TDa over the previous 2

[rich wagon]

I mean I understand but tda on 150% is ridicolously fast

It's not like I appreciate the details while shieldbashing and there's a million projectiles on my screen

I sight see for all of them they all look awesome

But ye

[unkempt fern]

I was talking to somebody about TDA this morning
He said 150% speed feels right
If you are gunna die, die quick; you get runs in and learn quicker.
And doomguy responds quicker too

[tulip snow]

ima be honest, taking a quick look at this i almost thought it was real

[whole cape]

Hello! Has anyone tried pathtracing yet? Is good? How big is the performance hit

[rich wagon]

I just wouldn't

It looks good but like we ain't ready for that type of stuff yet

[rich wagon]

Idk here's an expert
@calm patio

[whole cape]

What 😄

Even with Dlss 4 overide?

Okay cool

Okay 👍🏻

[boreal shell]

Wsp yall

[whole cape]

I‘m running TDA at 141 frames on nightmare preset and using the Dlss 4 override with 2x FG

4070 Ti super

Without PT

But taking a 50% hit is rough

I see…

Hahaha

Hmmm…gotta play around with it a bit on the weekend, havent had a chance yet

Makes sense

[boreal shell]

Yall think doomslayer would support the lgbtq /genq

[rich wagon]

Hm

[boreal shell]

Woah you have the same name as me

[rich wagon]

You do?

[boreal shell]

As someone who’s never touched a doom game I agree

[boreal shell]

Irl atleast

[rich wagon]

Sweet

There can be only one.

[boreal shell]

Indeed

Meet up at rdc 79272

[rich wagon]

We are enemies now.

Don't gotta tell me

[boreal shell]

I’m the better one

[rich wagon]

You're gonna pay bud

[boreal shell]

No you

[rich wagon]

Our lineage will fight forever

[boreal shell]

[whole cape]

@calm patio thank you for the quick overview 🙏🏻

[boreal shell]

Correct

Our lineage will fight for honor

[rich wagon]

My sons and daughters will slaughter your weaklings

You made the biggest mistake having my name

An emnity between us

[whole cape]

Anything that can be „optimized“ or is it just one patch and thats it with pathtracing?

Or is pathtracing simply ahead of it‘s time and we arent ready yet? 😂

[rich wagon]

Ye we ain't ready

Kinda like cyberpunk

[whole cape]

I tried it in Cyberpunk, had decent performance

Nothing too crazy tho

And much more stable frames without PT, ofc

[viral elk]

Overall question have you guys heard doom of the fates? It’s duel of the fates inspired by doom music. It is sick. Give it all listen and tell me if you like it or not.

[forest belfry]

I saw it but I didn't watch it

It’s good

Incorrect

[boreal shell]

[keen robin]

Didn't Rage 2 only have one expansion?

[limber aurora]

it's been 5 years man

i was in 6th grade at the time im a year away from college now

[keen robin]

If they show off Rage 3 during the only useful part of GOTY, I'll be thunderstruck.

[pine delta]

It'd be really funny if they did it a third time

Neither of these games were successful

I don't even know why they made a rage 2

[limber aurora]

you kind of need to edit to cut it down to the good bits unless you're just THAT entertaining

[limber aurora]

maybe it was just really fun to make

i wasnt successful i dont know why my parents tried to make another child

[nocturne hollow]

@limber aurora nah I don't plan on editing because it's too much. I prefer to Livestream, entertain as I play, and chat while playing

[limber aurora]

yeah that's fine

but if you want to reach an audience on youtube you kind of need to trim down your long streams because i don't think people are willing to watch an hour or more of something that has a lot of yammering or dead air

but like you do you

[static perch]

Hiroo Onoda

I do love these games, but every new entry will surprise me

[unkempt fern]

Two. The second expansion was in some weird alternate universe with a sword

[lethal meteor]

new sodom album just a week away guys

❤️

[keen robin]

Psyched
Was wondering when it'd release

Haven't listened to Behemoth's new album.
Need to listen to Katatonia's new album

[lethal meteor]

6 days 23 hours and 41 minutes

[keen robin]

Was there skeletons?

[limber aurora]

fuck yeah

[unkempt fern]

Rage 2 was kinda a tech demo for some eternal features.
Double jump and double dash, plus a giant not-icon-of-sin boss

I was hoping TDA would have something like the convoys from rage 2

[keen robin]

Rage 2 is definitely the middle ground between Doom 2016 and Eternal.
You can feel it when you play

[buoyant egret]

so i started RDR2, I dont know have i the patience, take slike 5 min to loot a bloody cabinet

it is like a sim game

[unkempt fern]

Horse riding sim

[keen robin]

Could try Atomic Heart, if RDR2 doesn't take.

[spare kayak]

Bhgcc

[buoyant egret]

its so slow compared to rdr1 granted i am still on tutorial snow level

[keen robin]

Falling off horse sim

Is there a lore explaination on why doomguy holds guns in his right hand in modern games?

[buoyant egret]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

[pine delta]

He was left handed in the original ones

[unkempt fern]

Just the pistol cuz it's a sidearm

[buoyant egret]

right handed here too

[buoyant egret]

nope

[pine delta]

Must be misremembering then

[buoyant egret]

right handed

[pine delta]

Why does he hold the pistol in his left hand then?

[nocturne hollow]

@limber aurora here's that thing I plan opening channel saying welcome people or something and then do talking like 5 or 7 minutes and then I begin playing while entertaining

[buoyant egret]

side arm

[keen robin]

Wait, I vividly remember the pistol being in our right hand.
Unless I'm thinking Doom 64.
Doom 64 does have best classic arsenal imo.

[pine delta]

He's carrying like 7 other guns

They're all side arms

[buoyant egret]

tfw hes an eldrich octopus sent by Quake

[keen robin]

Even Doom 64 pistol beats out Doom 1&2 pistol

[unkempt fern]

Always some head cannon that a game would release with a grenade / pistol / knife left hand select

[pine delta]

Like Wolfenstein?

[buoyant egret]

how does serious sam throw a grenade while duel weilding?

MF must have a trunk

[pine delta]

He throws them with his mouth

[unkempt fern]

T1000 flying a helicopter and shooting with a third arm 😂

[buoyant egret]

that is lore accurate though

[unkempt fern]

Yeh

Halo had the best dual wielding and threw it away 😂

[buoyant egret]

it broke their golden triangle of grendade, gun, melee

i still miss it though

[pine delta]

Master chief forgot he could hold two weapons after his extended nap

[buoyant egret]

It just doesn’t respect your time to individually hand pick a cabinet

Fees like a cruel joke

[pine delta]

And nobody taught the Spartan IVs their left hand could also hold a gun

[crystal nimbus]

Chat how good is Civil V

[pine delta]

Civilization?

[crystal nimbus]

Yeaah

[edgy arch]

.

[unkempt fern]

I remember buying assassin's creed 3, and spent two hours in a training mission, and never played it again

Black flag was more my speed

[keen robin]

Master Chief forgot how to hold his damn gun after taking a nap.
Why is recoil in modern halo?

[unkempt fern]

Supposedly Halo ce remake is on the way next year
And coming to playstaion

Starfield also coming to playstaion
Probably announced at quakecon or gamescon this August
And a new expansion

I'm hyped for Starfield
Rage in space 😁

[keen robin]

Kinda afraid of what they deemed needed a remake.
CE is my second favorite halo.

I think my top three are
1, Halo 2
2, Halo CE
3, Halo ODST

[muted phoenix]

The word house in your message was a link

[fading peak]

Wsg

[slate pasture]

you mean house? looks fine to me

[muted phoenix]

Its a link again

[slate pasture]

looks fine to me!

[muted phoenix]

Im going insane

[floral marlin]

why does "house" always have a link attached

[west hare]

What if we had Arnold as doom guy in lets say the 90s or a year in 2000 for the release year. And instead of having him speak just have the helmet and him just making grunts and such while ripping demons. You might could do the original story where he gets in trouble and gets sent to mars and that could be where he had dialogue. But for someone to be a badass killing demons with a whole arsenal I think the Terminator could pull it off in an alternate universe

[slate pasture]

I'm not sure, house looks totally fine to me!

[keen robin]

Mass Effect 1 is my favorite out of the trilogy

As @buoyant egret put it, Reach is just a demanded product. No soul or human passion behind it.
There are some things I love in Reach. Like how our playable character carries over into all modes. And Emile

No other game has come close to TNO dual wielding.
TNC only has two cool mechanics, capable of using a missile launcher with your special gun. And being capable of using two different class guns.
Like assault rifle and shotgun

[pine delta]

Too bad the new collosis is unbalanced and barely any of the guns actually work together

Assault rifle and shotgun is really the only combination of two different weapons that works

But if you're close enough to use the shotgun just using two of them is significantly better

[muted phoenix]

Yeah finally im not insane!

[muted phoenix]

Its Literally blue

[fading peak]

house?

Huh

[pine delta]

Did you try the medicine drug?

It's not supposed to be blue

[muted phoenix]

But its blue 😭

And its A link embed

[keen robin]

TNC plays like shit.
The skills are awful. And we're glass canons.
Only gun I didn't use when trying to play through on Death Incarnate was the pistol. Every other gun was great.
Turned the difficulty down when I got to Venus. Had enough of the game's bullshit

[pine delta]

This vexes me

[muted phoenix]

Whats vexes

[pine delta]

Me

[faint ivy]

Nine Inch Nails

Here I come

[muted phoenix]

Is that the band or the actual nails

[faint ivy]

I'm seeing them live in Köln today

[pine delta]

No way is that a quake reference which is a doom reference which is a Fortnite reference?

[keen robin]

Hope they play some songs from With Teeth Album.

The Hand that feeds and Into The Void played live at the same show would be wonderful.

[faint ivy]

I'm sure they'll play The Hand That Feeds

Too catchy and popular to be skipped

[keen robin]

It is one of Trent's popular songs, but I love it to death.

[faint ivy]

He's probably gonna play a few songs from Year Zero too

[keen robin]

I think the only popular song that doesn't click with me is The Perfect Drug

[keen robin]

I'm kinda hesitant to go past With Teeth. I just hear negative critiques as the discography goes on.
But I should listen to it someday

@faint ivy
Listening to Year Zero album now

[faint ivy]

It's a concept album too and it hisses hella fucking hard at the Bush government

[muted phoenix]

Its very blue

In terms of?

No I have not

[keen robin]

I doubt it hissed at Bush as much as Ministry. Lmao

The holy hating the bush trilogy

Shit, I think Ministry stopped when he supposedly saw George W Bush try to get a hotdog from a taco stand

[faint ivy]

Ministry is so good

The uncut music mod for NFSU2 made No W so enjoyable

[keen robin]

I need to listen to him more.

Also enjoy some of Thrill Kill Kult

[faint ivy]

I mostly remember Thrill Kill as that crazy PS1 fighting game

But I gotta check TKK out,+

[delicate falcon]

Thanks brother

[limber aurora]

have you considered that maybe they did it because it was really fun

they coded it that way because they found joy and whimsy in it

they found purpose, enjoyment

[dull gyro]

Another day of fighting demons in the bathroom lads

[limber aurora]

because you don't BELIEVE in joy and whimsy?

this is the problem with today's society

have you never wished to do something for no reason at all? against any "reasonable" sense? just for the feeling of the lightened air in your lungs? the spring in the corner of your eyes?

then why does the path tracing for doom the dark ages have to conform to dull notions of what is "reasonable", of what "makes sense"?

because they found delight in the novelty! they discovered jubilation in the breaking of standards!

[faint ivy]

Ray tracing is really cool but I dunno how Ray feels about it

[limber aurora]

again you deny them their human urges for whimsicality!

[faint ivy]

Didn't id explain that Ray tracing-powered path tracing actually helped them in meaningful ways with hit detection and whatnot

[limber aurora]

see! meaning! they found meaning in it!

[faint ivy]

Besides using it for graphics purposes like dynamic lighting that's a valid use case too, even if it feels like swatting a fly with a panzerfaust rather than a shovel

[limber aurora]

i grow tired and restless of those unable to realize that our souls create meaning where there is none, if only to please a noumenal urge for simple delight!

words, words, words.... must everything be detailed in endless technical jargon? must everything be stripped of its own soul, reduced to our artificial concepts?

no! i do not stand for this! i believe in the soul of everything, no matter how inhuman we try to make them!

[faint ivy]

Sounds like something that can be fixed with a patch tbh

If they didn't care then they wouldn't have made the game

[limber aurora]

this is light! light is such a wholly important, irremovable part of the general human condition! yet you reduce it to bare technicalities! shame!

to say that there is no whimsy to be found in light itself...

[muted phoenix]

Damn what

[limber aurora]

i see....

creating mockeries of light itself....

[muted phoenix]

Uhuh...

[limber aurora]

mayhaps it can be inferred that not all efforts at indulging in one's own whimsy bring the same jubilation to those around them...

[faint ivy]

It works for me because it looks good tbh

[muted phoenix]

Well it looks cool so idrc

[limber aurora]

truly a dark, yet noble insight we have gleaned in today's conversation!

dude lmao do you not know how to respond to people being big dopey jokesters 😭

im breaking the dumb fancy schmancy character it was really fucking funny though

[faint ivy]

You'd probably have a better time discussing this with id's graphics dept than some randoms on the internet

[muted phoenix]

Yeah

[limber aurora]

lmao ur so real for that 🫶

[muted phoenix]

Is that bad

[limber aurora]

sometimes i smell like a hotel

[muted phoenix]

Gases are NOT fluids, not on a molecular level and not behavior wise.
