general-chat

[waxen rose]

I need a catch phrase for my master chief mii in tomadachi but I forgot what he says

[steady jolt]

They collate feedback from a variety of sources, including Discord, Reddit, Socials, Focus groups, surveys and yes, YouTube.

[red whale]

I mean, they did a whole rebrand from 343 Industries (which basically tanked the franchise) but seem to be making many of the same decisions and just porting over everything from 343’s Halo Infinite to the Halo CE remake, so what was even the point of the studio rebranding?

[steady jolt]

They're not just going to listen to the content creators with big number audiences though

[naive turret]

It is refreshing on the Ubisoft side to see such active response to criticism and feedback.

Of course that's with a game that's announced to be coming out soon, so they can be more open, and from a publisher known to be in dire straights desperately seeking good PR.

[meager linden]

I need a power of friendship?

[waxen rose]

That’s arbiter’s catchphrase

[steady jolt]

I feel like I've hammered the point about asset re-use and placeholders too many times now, yet you continue to just ignore everything I say

[naive turret]

The underlying code is from the old games yes.

[steady jolt]

Yes, they already said that

It's in the Xbox Wire blog

[naive turret]

The AR mechanically seems to be Reach's, since the spread becomes more accurate when you crouch.

[red whale]

I mean, these people have big audiences because they speak for large portions of the Halo fanbase. Discord channels tend to be a huge circle jerk echo chamber of people just praising the studio and not really offering any constructive feedback for how to improve things at all

[steady jolt]

There's plenty of constructive feedback that gets posted here

And there's plenty of nonsensical remarks that get posted on YouTube as well

[meager linden]

Idk then
Maybe something like this...
"Finishing this..." And put your phrase lol

[steady jolt]

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/10/24/halo-campaign-evolved-answering-the-big-questions

This is worth reading through

[red whale]

I heard that they are somehow running parts of the blam! engine under UE 5

[meager linden]

Anyway
I'm going to sleep, see you all tomorrow
Outside, birds are singing (night btw), and this is so relaxing

[pulsar heron]

"i need a weapon" would be incredibly funny

[naive turret]

I mean does Halo 3 feel like CE

For underlying behaviours and mechanics that already exist. To keep a broadly Halo feel instead of ground up on UE5.

[steady jolt]

Because throwing absolutely everything out and starting again from nothing is extremely difficult and not always best choice

[steady jolt]

Also this ^

Even when migrating to new systems, there are always parts of the old one that are perfectly useable and don't need updated/upgraded/modified in any way. Time and resource saving, efficiency

[cedar turret]

Which is why I play Halo on my Tandy 1000

[meager cove]

married my wife today

[cedar turret]

That is probably a good thing, she might get upset if you married someone else

[steady jolt]

Lol

[pulsar heron]

unless bxddrz happens to be a wedding officiant

[meager cove]

im certified

[red whale]

I hope they give elites back their roll and dodge behaviors from Halo CE where they can actually avoid the warthog

And make walking the default with sprint feature as an option to switch on instead of the other way around since they didn’t really expand the size of a level like Silent Cartographer so sprint feature literally just allows the player to accidentally skip core encounters and level reveals that were designed for a game without sprint

[hasty zinc]

I'm going to sprint all over the place and ruin the whole game for myself just because of this comment.

[pulsar heron]

"when happy: Boo..." is sending me

[vagrant kettle]

Can we all agree that country kid larpers are the worst types of people

Genuine NPCs

[hasty zinc]

I can't agree if I have no idea what you're talking about

[naive turret]

[waxen rose]

You're not country bro youre from minnesota get out my face 😭

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/HzQy.gif

[waxen rose]

Boo…

[vagrant kettle]

Master freak knows

[naive turret]

https://klipy.com/gifs/halo-master-chief-30--k01KQZTAB8ZVRWAZGF3RCW8N3X3

[waxen rose]

He says that when hes full of joy

[naive turret]

The briefest flash of CE Chief in that moment

[pulsar heron]

what about something based on "something tells me i'm not gonna like this" from h2, perhaps for shouting at the sea or angry?

[karmic tree]

Chat

I may need to start putting money into my steam acc

[pulsar heron]

wait no. shouting at the sea, something to do with "tell that to the covenant"

[waxen rose]

I need to make my master chief happy so I can make him shout im not gonna like this before he greets other people

[zinc bear]

he shouldve said "i need a weapon" when angry bro

[pulsar heron]

you could also do "lucky me" for happy

[waxen rose]

That's ominous
You get this guy angry and he turns his back and says under his breath “I need a weapon…”

[waxen rose]

This is just cute

[pulsar heron]

i'm choosing to envision a happy chief saying "lucky me" complete with yippee confetti

[waxen rose]

“Lucky me!!!” master chief starts jumping up and down

[pulsar heron]

paired with the stands cutely pose

[waxen rose]

Some halo fans aren't ready for the truth (lucky me chief)

[waxen rose]

Master chief when he is given soft serve icecream

[vagrant kettle]

Damn chief got moves

[coral yoke]

even the truth can be a lie

[coral yoke]

i had to check that i didn't accidentally mute my audio when i clicked this lmao

[vagrant kettle]

Going to try the Gauntlet

Any tips before I start?

[pliant hatch]

die well

[vagrant kettle]

nobodys on

[waxen rose]

I read this as gambling

[coral yoke]

let's go gambling!

[vagrant kettle]

That’s the whole mode??? Just high intensity firefight????

Meh

[waxen rose]

High intensity gambling

[misty marsh]

Chat am i cooked

[waxen rose]

This is what happens when halo fans dont have a new halo for more than 600 days

[karmic tree]

Fr

[misty marsh]

My geometry dash hours might surpass halo

[karmic tree]

I haven't played on MCC on my Xbox one in like 2 or 3 years

And I haven't played infinite on legendary in like 4 years

That's how cooked I am

[waxen rose]

Im so cooked that I am medium rare with a butter glaze

[misty marsh]

I think i usually only go like 6 or 7 months max without halo when I do take a break

[waxen rose]

When halo interest comes back so does college classes also come back

[misty marsh]

LITERALLY

Stupid chud friends started a mc server today when I have three assignments due in the next week and a half

[waxen rose]

I have two essays due tomorrow Wdym I have to hop on halo mcc to get the limited stuff

[misty marsh]

Can't lie drop out

[waxen rose]

Its not my fault that I procrastinated

[chilly summit]

[misty marsh]

Don't ever let getting an education stop you from mastering chief

[waxen rose]

Mastering chief

[misty marsh]

Yeah

John is now a verb

[dusky sierra]

Ok so I have a question

I’ve heard people here singing the praises of Halo 3, saying it’s the best game in the series
I’ve just beaten it for the first time and while it’s an amazing game, it didn’t feel incredibly different to 2 and CE

My question is, why is it so highly regarded in comparison to the other games?

[chilly summit]

masters degree in chief

[waxen rose]

OMG okay so my fiction assignment due tonight is literally ABOUT a world of just only Johns.

[misty marsh]

The level design and structure is by far superior

It does get nostalgia ridden quite a bit but we'll never admit to that

[waxen rose]

Prof told us to all write a humor short fiction story and I got way too into “most ceo’s names are John’s” and ran with the idea

[misty marsh]

WHAT

[misty marsh]

I suddenly can't think of any Johns

[waxen rose]

So now im writing about a distant planet made up of 99.99% of white middle-aged men named John and the main character is Jane

[dusky sierra]

So it’s just how the levels are designed then?

[misty marsh]

Don't forget John doe

[dusky sierra]

Bezos

Wait no

[waxen rose]

John doe is the leader of the planet btw

[dusky sierra]

Uhhhh Krasinski

[waxen rose]

He sucks

[dusky sierra]

He does

[waxen rose]

Actually most John's suck

[dusky sierra]

Well, Krasinski

[waxen rose]

John Lennon wasnt that cool

[misty marsh]

Variation within levels are better yeah. CE especially tends to get very repetitive. Personally I think they're mapped out in a way that makes like the step by step of each mission way easier to remember. More notable moments imo too like that arby and chief cutscene in covenant, the double scarab fight and warthog run

[chilly summit]

https://tenor.com/view/south-park-john-lennon-kill-john-lennon-catcher-in-the-rye-butters-gif-24540888

[waxen rose]

Butters id my favorite

[dusky sierra]

Cena?

[chilly summit]

when they're mean to butters in south park

[dusky sierra]

John Williams

[waxen rose]

It makes me anger boil

[misty marsh]

Remember when he went to mini hooters and thought he got a girl 💔

[waxen rose]

Performative male

[chilly summit]

cena like top 3 white people

[waxen rose]

I thought I was

[chilly summit]

you're in there too

[dusky sierra]

So who’s the third

[chilly summit]

idk

[misty marsh]

I'll volunteer

[waxen rose]

Eric Cartman

[vagrant kettle]

Me

[dusky sierra]

Unidentified White Human

[chilly summit]

yo chat i think i just experienced sleep paralysis like 10 minutes ago im so scared

[vagrant kettle]

Me?

[waxen rose]

That just your brother in the corner not a demon

[dusky sierra]

Ok so we’ve established that the top three white people according to Boat are John Cena, Master Freak, and Insert Third Person Here

What order are they in

[waxen rose]

Boat’s brother should be up there

[chilly summit]

i genuinely thought it was my brother pranking me for a sec im lowkey losing it

[misty marsh]

It's the titanic iceberg

[chilly summit]

i feel like the kid in fnaf 4 rn i keep checking the room with my phone flashlight

[waxen rose]

“Little brother… please don't hurt me..”

[misty marsh]

Put on some nice ambient music and lowk never sleep again

[chilly summit]

nightmare is out to get me 💔

I ain't ever experience anything like that before bruh 🥀

[misty marsh]

Bite of '26 doesn't sound that cool so I think ur safe

[chilly summit]

True...

the boogieman is real i fear

[waxen rose]

The one time I had a sleep paralysis moment was the one time I forgot to take my nightly meds and I've learned never to forget

[misty marsh]

I think I've had one but I forgot it

[chilly summit]

my demon was a flying spooky copy of halo reach

[waxen rose]

Dude thats way too scary

[misty marsh]

Wait no i remember it was after I read some story abt an eight ft tall japanese lady

[chilly summit]

never sleeping again

[misty marsh]

I'm so sorry

[chilly summit]

being fr tho that was lowkey terrifying

[waxen rose]

Do they just… do that one day
Gain an extra 3 feet of height

[misty marsh]

Time to invest in a night light

[chilly summit]

maybe...

[misty marsh]

No it was like some creepypasta of a Japanese demon that looks like an 8ft tall woman and she makes creepy sounds and eats kids

[waxen rose]

I think I know that one

She prayed on kids with divorced parents

[misty marsh]

And i remember listening to someone narrate it and it freaked me out to my core so bad

Hachi smth I can't remember the full name

[naive turret]

I wonder if Capcom took inspiration

[misty marsh]

I'm NOT searching it to confirm it's 2am

She makes a po po po sound

[waxen rose]

Ill take one for the team

[misty marsh]

I don't think I'm sleeping tonight anymore 😔

[waxen rose]

The legend of Hachishakusama

[misty marsh]

YES

Even the name's giving me heebie jeebies

[cunning linden]

I love women

[waxen rose]

Why does all these illustrations of her just look like me when im cramping

[misty marsh]

LMAO

I also gain an extra 3ft in height when I cramp

[waxen rose]

I cant take this seriously im cackling

[misty marsh]

don't cackle at my trauma 🤬🤬

[waxen rose]

This is NOT a safe space

[misty marsh]

I can't believe the halo discord is not safe 😔

[waxen rose]

Instead of an 8-foot-tall lady it should be 8 foot tall arbiter that haunts nights instead

[misty marsh]

Omg he could haunt me any day bro

[dusky sierra]

I’m currently a few missions into Halo 3: ODST

[waxen rose]

Hachi eats kids
Arbiter eats copies of halo reach to save the kids

[misty marsh]

Can i feed him odsts

[waxen rose]

He hungers for bad media

[dusky sierra]

What’s wrong with Halo Reach? It’s been my favorite of the series so far

[misty marsh]

Bet I'll feed him every Sydney Sweeney movie ever

[waxen rose]

He WILL be feasting on at least half of adam sandlers catalog

[runic wagon]

Yeah that. Was thinking something like the precursors lol

Mmhmm

No.

[misty marsh]

Throw in a healthy serving of jared leto too

[runic wagon]

The chief and he still have unfinished business

[waxen rose]

A pinch of Kevin hart

[hasty zinc]

yes

[misty marsh]

Dash of Amy Schumer

[waxen rose]

And NOTHING nice

[misty marsh]

Thel 'black hole of everything that sucks' Vadam

[runic wagon]

It was an L

[runic wagon]

Nope.

[waxen rose]

Chemical X is Megan fox

[waxen rose]

Seems that a lot of the worlds white chocolate is missing

[chilly summit]

yeah sleep doesn't seem to be happening tonight im hopping on the steam deck

[obsidian wyvern]

what do u have on the deck

[hasty zinc]

how so?

[obsidian wyvern]

i was looking at it the other day and thought armored core was the best thing i could put on there

[chilly summit]

I got arkham knight on it im gonna continue that

[obsidian wyvern]

also how have i managed to write 3/4 of my acronyms wrong LOL

[obsidian wyvern]

ah

ill probably give in to buying one eventually

[chilly summit]

maybe wait tbh,it's been around for about 5 years now,valve will probably be looking at a steam deck 2 soon,they've already stopped production of the lcd models

[zinc bear]

tung tung tung sahur

[obsidian wyvern]

its alreayd been 5 tf

i guess it did come out when i was in sixth form

[chilly summit]

yeah it's crazy tbh

[vagrant kettle]

RIP tung tung
Dance to pay respects

[waxen rose]

I didnt read past each acronym so I assumed you were coming up with names to call your dad

[zinc bear]

True

[zinc bear]

How do you feel about Tung tung tung sahur

[waxen rose]

I killed him in the Bronx

[muted rose]

3 t’s son

[vagrant kettle]

We’re chill like that, me and T

Or we were😢

[muted rose]

You don’t know T^3 like that

[vagrant kettle]

He sacrificed his life to take down Sora ai and stop ai fruit island

[quick gust]

If I want create a fan game from halo, like on unreal engine, or idk another like ue, and ask to halo studios give me a models, they give me if the idea was so good or not?

[zinc bear]

You can get models from the halo archive discord server. Just remember to follow Microsoft’s rules for their content usage.

[quick gust]

I need see that, idk where is it

[lofty cloud]

If i was ever rich getting a real warthog would be the goal

Maybe without the gun hah

[quick gust]

If I found guys to create this halo, you all see what halo 5 it was supposed to be, but 2x better

[zinc bear]

The server or the rules?

[quick gust]

The rules for usage models

[zinc bear]

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/copyright/permissions pretty sure this is the right thing

[granite breach]

What I miss?

[runic wagon]

Chief shouldn’t have been able to win when realistically going against the didact

[lofty cloud]

They literally gave him plot armor didnt his armor get built with special protections against them or was it he somehow acquired the ability i forgot which

[dawn spruce]

The Librarian gave him a geas which made him immune to being composed.

Funnily enough it turns out the Didact didn't have anything similar (rip)

[lofty cloud]

I remember the Librarian mentioning something about his armor being the product of centuries of planning

[tropic kiln]

Maybe he did but multiple composers are too much

Even with the awakened geas Chief was put down by one composer

[small mauve]

I see skirmishers from reach are back in the campaign of infinite

[quick gust]

Thanks bro

[quick gust]

Hey, bro where is it i didnt find it

[zinc bear]

Check DMs

[quick gust]

Alright sir

Thansk

[granite breach]

Okay so what did the Librarian do to Master Chief when she sped up his evolution? Did it make him stronger and faster? Increase his stats in any way? Or just give him immunity to the Didact or whatever it's supposed to do? Still got 3 levels left in Halo 4, but still don't get what she did to him?

[meager linden]

Good morning people of Halo

[brittle helm]

[raven jolt]

Good evening

[red whale]

Do you think the devs will take feedback into account and make the forerunner structures less glossy and add back the water damage that existed in the original Halo CE game?

[wind mesa]

im getting h3 odst for my birthday

[brittle helm]

happy birthday

[wind mesa]

thank you!

[zinc bear]

this is a better question to ask in #lore-and-universe

[jade gust]

What was shown off last October was a work in progress. I'm pretty sure you've been told this already

[jade gust]

Chief wasn't made stronger or faster, but he was made immune to the effects of a Forerunner device known as the Composer, which is what the Forerunners used to convert biological entities into digital ones (Such as Guilty Spark)

[red whale]

When will we get another showing or update from the devs about the game? And wasn’t it already announced content-complete like a month ago?

[jade gust]

I don't know when we're getting more news about the game, I don't work for HS

[steady jolt]

I definitely don't remember any announcements about it being content complete

We will very likely get an additional update, or potentially a few, before it launches. I'm hoping to see it at one of the next showcases. June is a good bet

And yes, they will absolutely have taken on board feedback from a variety of sources and made changes since the initial WIP build last year

[jade gust]

I just hope we get some info on the prequel missions, those are what I'm most interested in

[steady jolt]

Yes!!

[jade gust]

Like, even with me warming up to the remake being a thing, admittedly I already know how the campaign plays out. And while I already know Chief and Johnson will survive the prequel missions, I can't help but want to know what's happening there

[tawdry badger]

I just beated enter the gauntlet on legendary.

For the first time

I must be rare

[red whale]

I mean, it’s been reported by a lot of games sites as of early April

[steady jolt]

Gaming sites can say anything they want for clicks, nothing has been announced

[steady jolt]

Morning!

[meager linden]

Day🤝

[meager linden]

How it's going?

[late sandal]

Helloo

[steady jolt]

3 hours sleep
Had coffee
Took the edge off, but didn't help much
Today is going to be a day 😓

[meager linden]

Oh
Good luck then

[raven jolt]

Goodmorning

[ebon socket]

Is anyone in here again a part of the RedditHalo discord?

Also* not again

[candid tusk]

One mention of Reddit and the discord goes dark for two hours. lol

[obsidian wyvern]

I was debating joining just to send the invite but that was too much

[candid tusk]

Far too much.

[quartz creek]

Dows anyone still think Halo 5’s new multiplayer mechanics are still too “pro” focused? Like if we just focused on the competitive aspect, was it really too “punishing” for casual players?

I find it hard to believe now because Fortnite is considered to have a higher skill gap between high vs lower skilled players with its building mechanics and it still dominated the shooter genre

[analog knot]

Fortnite is a tough comparison because they constantly modify the game on both ends to maintain a competitive environment within the same sandbox that is more expanded for casual play. This is where I think Halo comp shines 😄

[thick furnace]

fortnite balancing for like the past 2 years has been like fully dedicated to pro players only

[ocean herald]

The building mechanics in Fortnite are kinda ridiculous ngl. I only really got into the game when they introduced no build

Fortnite’s collabs have kept it afloat. Most of the new modes are just derivative of other games at this point

[thick furnace]

fortnite try not to copy every game ever challenge (impossible)

[analog knot]

Its funny because if you ask pros they will tell you the complete opposite. And yeah its clearly not the case, not sure if we are playing the same game there

The entire loot pool for Ranked/Tournament is different from Casual for a reason 😄

[obsidian wyvern]

i dont think fn would have been what it is without the building

even though zero build is my go to nowadays, building was its USP and the reason i played

[thick furnace]

every cool and unique thing gets nerfed or removed because pros cant do the same build stuff against it wdym

the car season is a perfect example of that

[analog knot]

It was removed from ranked/comp, but not casual

[obsidian wyvern]

the cars were lowkey ridiculously overpowered

they were fun but anyone could see they needed a nerf

[analog knot]

The boss cars regenerating health had to be nerfed, even if comp didnt exist

[thick furnace]

only a little

if u had good aim cars werent that crazy

[obsidian wyvern]

everyone just chooses to blame comp players for saying what needs to be done lol

[analog knot]

And NPCs being able to shoot the turret in solos lmao

[thick furnace]

either way they got nerfed way too bad

[analog knot]

You can disagree with the balancing, but you cant say the balancing was strictly because of comp

[obsidian wyvern]

it became less fun as the season went on yeah, but i cant really blame them for doing so

[ocean herald]

That’s what made it unique but once the “competitive” scene arrived it was just ludicrous calling it a competitive shooter

[analog knot]

I only started playing fn a few years ago but I have to imagine turbo building was the larger pivot point

[obsidian wyvern]

i kinda like how the mechanics went from being used quite simply to evolving into a game with a pretty high skill ceiling tbh

yeah turbo building was when the shift happened

[coral yoke]

i tried to port black knife into fortnite but i couldn't for the life of me make the mixing tolerable

[obsidian wyvern]

they nerfed the editing and idk why but that nerf seemed to hit me more than anyone, theres such a massive delay for me that i dont notice anyone else suffer from

they also screwed up their control bindings so i cant have the same edit button i once did

[analog knot]

Even after you turn down the edit time?

[ocean herald]

When one of your game mechanics overpowers the primary engagement/fighting mechanic, I think you have to reassess what you even are lol

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah ive put edit time down to the lowest number, it still feels so so much slower

[ocean herald]

Which is why no build was/is peak

[obsidian wyvern]

atp i only play a few matches at the start of a season because ive managed to get every single season umbrella lol

ill only play with friends after i get my win

[ocean herald]

I just hop on to spend my vbucks lol

Or when a new collab I like comes back

[coral yoke]

i don't even play the battle royale stuff i mostly screw around and find out in creative

maybe copy a halo gamemode every once in a full moon

[thick furnace]

fortnite gameplay has felt buns for so long

theres so many hit reg issues too

i can snipe someone in the face and itll do 0 damage

[coral yoke]

well snipers aren't hitscan

[thick furnace]

hitscan guns also got the same issue

[analog knot]

There are some hit reg issues in game rn for sure

[analog knot]

Does this mean we arent going to duo grind out the boxfights backbling

[coral yoke]

mmm i've mostly noticed that on melee hitboxes

[analog knot]

in fortnite? 😄

[coral yoke]

i meant what i said

[thick furnace]

fortnite gets worse every season 💔

[coral yoke]

a swipe of a grapple blade will just do jack sometimes

[obsidian wyvern]

i am investing all my time into fh6 and marathon soon

[analog knot]

Its pretty funny hitting someone w/ the fists and sending them a million miles away

[obsidian wyvern]

(and val because thats all my irl friends play 😔 )

[coral yoke]

hapless thing

[thick furnace]

ill probably try the new forza if its on gamepass

the map looks pretty cool

[obsidian wyvern]

its not even fun

[coral yoke]

oh i know

[analog knot]

"hey guys Im not having fun, I'd rather watch than play" ggez

[obsidian wyvern]

val is the only game i do just rage quit

[analog knot]

"We've released a hotfix that fixes blank shots firing in Battle Royale and Reload! Let us know if you're seeing any further issues."

[obsidian wyvern]

i will deal with reachs bloom before vals bloom

[analog knot]

The timing on that is pretty great 😄 30 mins ago

[coral yoke]

wait you do mean valorant right?

[obsidian wyvern]

yesh

[normal owl]

Speaking of Fortnite, I did my monthly logon to hoard Fortnite Crew benefits via Game Pass, and I saw they added what looks like basically SW Battlefront 2 conquest mode lite. Very interested.

[coral yoke]

ok good i was getting ready to mangle somebody

[chilly summit]

eternal despair

[analog knot]

Its actually really fun too

[obsidian wyvern]

its not even funny bro

[chilly summit]

all my irl friends just play overwatch

[normal owl]

dang, I've got to check it out then. Thanks for the confirmation!

[obsidian wyvern]

like they all play quite a lot of games, its just val is the only game we play as a group for some reason

[hasty zinc]

yeah I've been meaning to try it out

the fortnite mode, not val

I will never play that game

[analog knot]

Its been years since I've touched battlefront but it really does have a lot of flavor. Maybe the big limit is relatively limited maps, but even then it plays really well.

[chilly summit]

could be worse tho rev,you could solo queue cs2

[analog knot]

Loadouts, skill trees you can progress through....Its cool to see. Now I wish there was less star wars every single year always but hey to each their own

[obsidian wyvern]

my family friend came over a few weeks back and forced me to install cs2

[normal owl]

Maybe this is like when I asked my parents to buy a certain snack I wanted really badly, and they returned with the Great Value version (before it became a decent store brand). SWBF3

[obsidian wyvern]

but it couldve been worse, it couldve been siege

[chilly summit]

I prefer it to val ngl

[chilly summit]

True...

[obsidian wyvern]

actually i have siege installed too LOL

[chilly summit]

atleast i can gamble on cs lmao

[obsidian wyvern]

i will be gambling with my sanity across any 3 games

[coral yoke]

never played battlefront so i just compare it to some koth sub-mode that doesn't seem to exactly exist

[chilly summit]

that too

[obsidian wyvern]

overwatch is just as bad in that sense, my sixth form group used to bang it out

[normal owl]

SWBF was more like sci-fi/arcade-ified Battlefield (whose DNA it's built on).

[chilly summit]

i have friends who are like gm on it,they basically play it every day lol

[analog knot]

Overwatch was a ton of fun until the meta settled and there was no real wiggle room out of it

[obsidian wyvern]

i had a gm mercy friend lol

[coral yoke]

god i wish the lightsaber block button wasn't strictly a hold

i use toggle zoom and it's the sole thing that doesn't respect that

[chilly summit]

idk how they play it without losing their minds tho,maybe i'm the problem

[obsidian wyvern]

i think we're the sane ones honestly

[chilly summit]

over time with cs i've learned to cope with it tbh lol

[thick furnace]

is that game actually fun ive been thinking of trying it

[obsidian wyvern]

NO

[chilly summit]

steer VERY clear

[thick furnace]

closest thing ill play is rivals and that just cuz its marvel

[coral yoke]

no the hell it is not

[normal owl]

I really enjoyed a lot of the earlier cinematic character shorts videos. Haven't kept up on the more recent ones. But watching a buddy play it confirmed that I am not cut out for that kind of intensity.

[chilly summit]

like i'm not really stressing about winning as much anymore,as long as im playing well it doesn't bother me lol

[obsidian wyvern]

theres no uturn

[coral yoke]

actually when has a moba ever been actually fun to play?

[chilly summit]

literally never

overwatch in it's early days was really fun tho

[meager linden]

Sometimes it's fun

[obsidian wyvern]

🥴

[normal owl]

MOBA is a lot of fun as an element in a PvP mode, like H5 Warzone and Battlefield Conquest.

[coral yoke]

i take it that's mostly where they got their popularity?

[normal owl]

I'm sure the then-popularity of League of Legends and its ilk influenced development.

[obsidian wyvern]

when u say moba, i think more league and dota than fps games

[coral yoke]

don't even get me started on that one soulslike moba that i don't think anybody's heard of

hell i don't even remember the name

[normal owl]

Smite2 is still going on I think too

[obsidian wyvern]

i forgot hi-rez exists

[normal owl]

It's one of the games that are in my box of "hm there's a chance I may be enticed to play it one day, so I'll hoard Twitch drops just in case".

same with Elder Scrolls Online, Sea of Thieves.

and Marvel Rivals, that's a big one.

I'm going to walk into Rivals with a whole wardrobe of Twitch-purple skins.

[misty marsh]

Marvels rivals better

[meager linden]

It's so strange to replay Diablo 4 campaign knowing what will be next DLC, and knowing that some characters are gonna betray you

[chilly summit]

https://giphy.com/gifs/meme-trash-garbage-Kcgo9obAr41FllUH0S

[thick furnace]

was gonna say the community is def better but rivals community is the same people as overwatches 💔

[misty marsh]

Everyone's allowed to have one trashy game guilty pleasure unlessitsvalorant

[thick furnace]

its sad how little marvel fans actually play rivals its all just people playing because its a hero shooter

[chilly summit]

True tbh

[misty marsh]

Yeah no the community sucks but I look past it and just play spiderman in peace

[thick furnace]

true,,

[obsidian wyvern]

rivals is hard to get into at this stage with how many characters there are

[thick furnace]

spiderman my goat hes my most played hero

[chilly summit]

0 elims because spiderman doesn't kill 🙏

[misty marsh]

Just pick ur favourite character and force urself to learn

[obsidian wyvern]

as in, to learn wtf the enemy team consists of lol

[thick furnace]

its only really the new characters that start getting confusing

[chilly summit]

hop on punisher if it's too complicated

[misty marsh]

Urm akshually 🤓

[obsidian wyvern]

NOT TO LEARN TO PLAY

[chilly summit]

just shoot ppl

[obsidian wyvern]

learning what the team and enemy players are capable of

[thick furnace]

its funny how simple launch characters are then u got black cat that has like 20 different moves with a currency system and shop she uses mid fight

[chilly summit]

doesn't matter just shoot them

[misty marsh]

Genuinely the insomniac games did make rivals spiderman way easier to play

[obsidian wyvern]

i could just sit here and learn iron man but that doesnt help with game sense. itll take time to get there

[coral yoke]

ok i'll admit. mine's been destiny 2 because my dad and his partner play it

[analog knot]

You know what we really need to return. Sly Cooper

[obsidian wyvern]

csgo in rivals

[chilly summit]

(this is why i like cs)

[thick furnace]

spiderman has been so buggy recently in rivals

[obsidian wyvern]

thats also why i wish my friends chose cs over val

[thick furnace]

got a bug where swing just didnt work properly so i was just the amazing man 💔

[chilly summit]

cs only gets complicated when you're in 30k elo unemployed lobbies

[obsidian wyvern]

that community is also so much funnier

[misty marsh]

Better than just man

[thick furnace]

cs looks pretty fun

[obsidian wyvern]

NO

[thick furnace]

most gameplay ive seen of cs tho is caseoh playing it 💔

[obsidian wyvern]

sorry im gonna have to make a list of games you need to avoid

[misty marsh]

His swing mechanics do throw me off depending on the map esp with all the invisible barriers

[obsidian wyvern]

• LEAGUE
• val
• val
• overwatch
• val
• rivals
• val
• siege
• val
• val
• cs

[coral yoke]

i wouldn't recommend getting counter-strike unless you need it for gmod or something

[chilly summit]

it's just call of duty but with an actual skill gap lol

[misty marsh]

How did league not make the list

[thick furnace]

theres a bug rn where it just swaps between simple swing and the aimed one outta nowhere 💔

[obsidian wyvern]

sorry i forgot

[thick furnace]

might be the avengers mode only tho i forgor

[obsidian wyvern]

league is def a top one on the avoid list

[misty marsh]

I'm so grateful I haven't touched the game in months now

[thick furnace]

all games ive almost gotten into,,

[obsidian wyvern]

im doing you a favour here

[thick furnace]

i do play rivals and siege tho

[misty marsh]

Overwatch wasn't that bad

[obsidian wyvern]

how often do you attend therapy

[thick furnace]

never

[obsidian wyvern]

ok when i say overwatch, i do mean 2 for the most part. which is now just overwatch again

[misty marsh]

I never played the first one enough and I regret it alot

[thick furnace]

gonna b real i saw no similarities aside from campers 24/7

[obsidian wyvern]

me with titanfall

[misty marsh]

But my friend group only got into it like a couple months before 2 came out

[misty marsh]

Yeah that's a way bigger loss rip

[thick furnace]

sometimes im sad titanfall 1 died but then i remembered everyone just ran the smart pistol

[obsidian wyvern]

same thing with tf2 lool

ill come back to the game and realise it did deserve to die

[thick furnace]

titanfall 2 got a balanced smart pistol since u gotta earn it

[obsidian wyvern]

its still bs really

[coral yoke]

tf2 seems to have a decent community behind it though

[obsidian wyvern]

i havent interacted with it that much but its been pretty chill

ive only been in the northstar server

[coral yoke]

iirc it's also the only game where you can kill people by literally beating them in rock paper scissors lmao

[thick furnace]

honestly titanfall is prob the only game to get lockon weapons to be fun

fortnites smart pistol is so buns

[obsidian wyvern]

if youre using
monarch
car
LMG WITH A SHIELD AT THE TOP OF A MAP
kraber i have to hate on on principle
smart pistol

you kinda just suck as a person honestly

[thick furnace]

bo7s smart pistol is just the worst gun in the game

[thick furnace]

cloak + spitfire my beloved

[obsidian wyvern]

fortnites smart pistol sucked yeah

[thick furnace]

WITH thermal sights

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-promethean-knight-promethean-knight-halo-knight-halo4-gif-26689148

[analog knot]

Lock On Pistol was really good in zb wdym

[thick furnace]

it was op on launch and now u got a better chance of killing with a pickaxe

[obsidian wyvern]

i would use anything but the lock on lol

[thick furnace]

the lockon ar is good tho

[obsidian wyvern]

id get more use out of a grey pistol

[analog knot]

and the lockon AR was horrible 🙁

[obsidian wyvern]

there was an ar??

[analog knot]

But I also mainly play ranked / solos so its prob different

[obsidian wyvern]

sick lol

[analog knot]

yeah last season it was not worth carrying

[thick furnace]

was added this season or something

[obsidian wyvern]

ive played like a total of 15 matches across the last 2 seasons

[thick furnace]

if u sat on a hill the bullets can just curve around it so u can be behind cover and get free kills

[obsidian wyvern]

but i liked how accurate the guns were last season, just didnt play it

[ancient totem]

Just so you know. I have destroyed 343 guilty spark in halo 3 more times then you can imagine.

[violet atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-halo2-elite-sangheili-greetings-gif-25839730

[thick furnace]

i prob got like 5 💔

last season i loved was the star wars one

[coral yoke]

i'd imagine it's kinda pulse carbine coded?

[thick furnace]

the guns felt so fun to use that season

[obsidian wyvern]

no clue

[analog knot]

its funny how a single weapon/interaction can completley change a season. and/or if your gameplay matches a weapons type

[obsidian wyvern]

the star wars season was fun because ud just drop in, grab an xwing and have dogfights

and then inevitably blow up when you try park at a petrol station

[thick furnace]

dude i forgot they added a vader ai

[naive turret]

Future of Star Wars btw

[analog knot]

the vader ai was so broken lmaoooo

[obsidian wyvern]

i never actually got to hear it speak, some settings problem or smthn

[analog knot]

I once told it to never stop talking no matter what I thought my wife was going to stab me

[coral yoke]

saber throw saber throw saber throw saber throw

[thick furnace]

whenever i used meowskulls he would keep talking about catnip or something 💔

[analog knot]

Also once people learned you could ask it where enemies were they had to disable it

[coral yoke]

wait what.

[obsidian wyvern]

great game

[coral yoke]

oh.
oh.

you meant genai.

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah they used genai for vader

[thick furnace]

ai slop and more baby yoda cute funny moments 🔥

[analog knot]

You could tell it to roleplay it was pretty funny

[normal owl]

Well now they've leaned into "Gen AI is the villain" because there's a mode where you Escape Vader.

[analog knot]

I told it to respond as a cowboy and it would constantly use silly phrases in the vader voice. "Great shooting partner, yeehaw"

[naive turret]

I love Rogue One, but I feel the same way about the hallway scene now as I do about the Mona Lisa in Halo

[thick furnace]

i tried escape vader with my friend it was so buns 💔

[normal owl]

When Vader caught you, did he create an agent to track your streaming subscriptions for you?

[obsidian wyvern]

oh h8, i just got the boat thing u were on about

less got, and more twitter just reminded me

[naive turret]

It'll all be fine dw

Taco station at the office today. Landlord must have gotten a discount on Cinco de Mayo surplus. Happy Siete de Mayo everyone.

[ancient totem]

Thst looks good. I could use a big mac right about now .

I dont eat big macs.

[heady pendant]

Hello guys

[faint mantle]

Maaaaan that looks good!

[heady pendant]

What halo should i start with

[meager linden]

Halo CE

[faint mantle]

In release order

[heady pendant]

Oh ok

Because i bought the master chief collection

I didn't know which one to start with

[naive turret]

Yeah the menu layout is deceiving

[analog knot]

CE -> 2 -> 3 -> ODST -> Reach -> 4 gg

[thick furnace]

canon order

[coral yoke]

i don't know why they chose to put reach first rather than fifth

[heady pendant]

Mmm

[analog knot]

Once you finish 4 and are interested in 5 you can come back here and ask why its not on PC and we can all meme together

[heady pendant]

Ok

[heady pendant]

Because bungie right?

[analog knot]

It has nothing to do w/ Bungie. Halo Studios never saw it as a priority/need so it never happened.

[coral yoke]

bungie didn't make 5

[thick furnace]

cuz it takes place first

[heady pendant]

Huh..

[candid tusk]

Absolutely Bungie's fault for not making Halo 4 and 5.

[heady pendant]

I thought they made all the halo games

[naive turret]

They left the franchise back in 2011 to make Destiny.

[thick furnace]

only up to like 3 and reach

[analog knot]

Oh no what have you done

[heady pendant]

Aha ok

[thick furnace]

4 was the first non bungie halo i think

[coral yoke]

iirc the only game that uses context from reach is 4

[meager linden]

Play in this order
Halo CE-> Halo 2 -> Halo 3 -> Halo 3 ODST ->Halo Reach-> Halo 4-> Halo 5 Guardians - Halo infinite

[thick furnace]

all of ce is because of reachs ending

[heady pendant]

My laptop is gonna explode if i run infinite

[coral yoke]

(and 1 but it's far less important there)

[candid tusk]

Halo Wars and Halo CE Anniversary were before 4 if you want to count them.

[naive turret]

I wonder if people do recommend starting with the prequels in Star Wars discussions.

[heady pendant]

Do the later halos have co op

[naive turret]

They all have co-op.

[coral yoke]

they all have coop

[heady pendant]

Tuff

[normal owl]

Just went and got Round 2 😋

[coral yoke]

up to 4 players iirc

[naive turret]

CE and H2 are two players, then from H3 onwards it's up to four.

[heady pendant]

🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[coral yoke]

oh what

[heady pendant]

If only i had someone to play with

[naive turret]

Once you get to H5 Splitscreen support stops though so be wary of that if you care.

[thick furnace]

i mean i dont really get watching them in release

[coral yoke]

infinite has splitscreen though

[naive turret]

Not for Campaign, 'co-op' is the current subject.

[thick furnace]

for star wars only reason i can think of watching is release is the reveal of who vader is

[naive turret]

And obligatory 'none of them do on PC' either because screw us I guess.

[coral yoke]

oh the campaign doesn't?

[naive turret]

No, this was a pretty big point of controversy.

Which granted Infinite is nearly five years old now ig folk would be out of the loop

[coral yoke]

i guess that makes a slight bit of sense

frustrating but given the performance of the campaign on its own it might've been the only option

[steady jolt]

https://youtu.be/LsSGn_wDZ2Q

[obsidian wyvern]

they're gonna talk about the new Xbox here or smthn I read

[analog knot]

Discord is an Xbox

[ancient totem]

I literally bought every star wars game on steam on the forth

[obsidian wyvern]

how many hundreds did that set you back by

[coral yoke]

god i was about to sleep i really don't need to tank another hour and a half right now

[ancient totem]

There was a deal . It was cheap. It was no more then 60 dollars

[cursive saffron]

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter

[ancient totem]

Most games are not very playable on my rog though. And for some reason . Lego star wars is extremely laggy.

[analog knot]

Bit odd, the ally should be able to handle almost everything you throw it at (with some exceptions on the higher end of course)

[ancient totem]

I found work around with the steam input. For controller support

[analog knot]

I found on the ally it doesnt always properly swap to controller input for some reason

[ancient totem]

Something is wrong with Lego star wars performance. Thats the only game with performance issues

[normal owl]

Thank you. Codes are a bane.

[obsidian wyvern]

didn't you ask for this yesterday lol

[pliant hatch]

should I drink every time they mention ai or will I miraculously stay thirsty?

[oak adder]

I walk around in infinite pretending its a beautiful version of the Mojave

[cursive saffron]

I Am Proud.

[muted rose]

We won’t go quietly, the legion can count on that.

[normal owl]

lol yes. Xbox could take a lot more of my money if it'd just let me gift stuff to anyone I want without code/region restrictions.

[cursive saffron]

agreed

[steady jolt]

I quick skipped through the first 45 minutes I can't recall AI being mentioned

[cursive saffron]

instantly friend requested as i gotta collect these NCR gems

[thick furnace]

david mason my goat

[oak adder]

Even if not on XBOX, I wish just within the game like Infinite wouldve loved to helped gift some cool armor sets

[muted rose]

Asha said they were ditching copilot iirc

[normal owl]

Agreed 100%. It does give hope that the ethos of "Let players move all parts of their experience between places with less and less friction" is dominating Xbox's mission. So hopefully that will make gifting easier as well.

[steady jolt]

For clarity, what I shared is a recap of what they announced at GDC this year

[normal owl]

Correct, bringing CoPilot to Xbox has been scrapped.

[muted rose]

https://x.com/asha_shar/status/2051746410660593933
yeah copilot is scrapped for console

[ancient totem]

I think I've found the actual rookie here.

[cursive saffron]

Nice.

[ancient totem]

I have him as a friend here. But he doesn't talk . Lol.

[cursive saffron]

Good, I need to collect more gems for the gaming multiverse.

[obsidian wyvern]

did they mention what they mean by pc games

[ancient totem]

And his name is rookie.

[obsidian wyvern]

like your xbox app games or steam as well

[naive turret]

Cause Steam games do sort of show up in the Xbox-

Yeah what he said

[muted rose]

This and steams auto optimization might actually help me move into pc

[chilly summit]

once you switch you never go back

[ancient totem]

Im not very familiar with discord. So new things pop up all the time

But i can see what music people are listening too.

[muted rose]

That is the intention

[chilly summit]

steam machine arrives soon too,no better time to switch 👀

(if it's reasonably priced)

[muted rose]

It won’t lol ram won’t allow it

[ancient totem]

I would not share details about people. Some kind of moral line to respect people's privacy

[chilly summit]

tho if you wanna play cod and like ea games they're not playable on steamos yet

[chilly summit]

idk man,all we can do is wait and see

[muted rose]

Well I don’t really play either

[heady pendant]

I've been missing out on this series

[muted rose]

Ea sports at least

[faint mantle]

Sometimes I get nostalgia for Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 1

[chilly summit]

EA had a job listing up recently though for linux support on their anticheat,so there's hope for that atleast,i miss playing battlefield

[muted rose]

I do miss gw2 occasionally

[faint mantle]

Also speaking of linux

(A reboot fixed it)

[muted rose]

Rip indeed

[normal owl]

I'm blowing through the transcript right now, but it seems like it's still high-level discussion about it:

• Helix = console + PC games
• PC game storefronts specifically mentioned as one of the barriers that Xbox wants to break down
• Xbox aims to get closer to the modern media experience of watching whatever you want on whatever device you want regardless of where you bought it from.

Not yet seeing detail about how exactly the storefront gating would be bypassed UX-wise.

[ancient totem]

We're you trying to start a game ?

[faint mantle]

There was an update to encrypted keys or smth

I updated and got that

Reboot and its gone

[ancient totem]

Im still kind of new to pc as well. But that kind of stuff on screen can be about anything probably

[indigo lotus]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Project Helix is mid-life cycle of the Series X/S. In my opinion it is too soon for a next gen console.

[ancient totem]

For me . I don't remember what I was doing to see such things.

[faint mantle]

All I want is to be able to play Halo Wars 2 outside of the Xbox app

[faint mantle]

It's all in the reading

[ancient totem]

Then I shall read . And see what I know

[faint mantle]

The color blue

[ancient totem]

All I know in that picture is blue 😁

Since you said its something bad. For your day

[faint mantle]

It basically says: "Ey! My password ain't passwording! I dunno what to do!"

[ancient totem]

I see the word interrupt. Closest negitive word i can think of

[pulsar heron]

i liked it when my mac would kernel panic

[ancient totem]

But interrupt is not super bad.

[pulsar heron]

interrupts in this context are generally intentional and entirely neutral

[misty shard]

ough thinking about ODST helmet

such a good helmet design

[ancient totem]

Fatal exception in interrupt

Interrupt neutral. Fatal unknown. To me unknown

[meager linden]

I'm liking the Buck's Spartan helmet design

[icy coral]

Hi

[heady hatch]

i cant find any games in objective based mods in MCC, PC on EU servers

[analog knot]

Are you blocking non-eu?

[pulsar heron]

basically, interrupts are one way that different parts of software talk to each other. they "interrupt" eachother to give updates, like "hello CPU, i am the keyboard. currently my 'B' key is being pressed down. thank you"

an exception means "something unexpected happened", and a fatal exception is an incident that can't be solved. for example: it's a calculation the computer can't make

so, a fatal exception in an interrupt means "a program was trying to do something, but it couldn't do it, and it didnt know what to do to recover"

[ancient totem]

Thats really cool . Thanks for the educational reply .

Im sure to people more familiar with pc . Its normal stuff.

[heady hatch]

yes? i get 100ping on na

[ancient totem]

It kind of blows my mind. Seeing all the different meanings in pc. Never seen it before.

[viral ocean]

tripple T blesses you all

[analog knot]

That’s going to be why. Most EU I’m assuming are playing slayer.

Turn on NA servers and try. Though objective is less populated this time of day in general.

[pliant hatch]

excellent

[meager linden]

Good night people of Halo

[pliant hatch]

that doesn't seem too bad. I always hear about higher numbers from the eu.

[proper mantle]

well apparently you get muted hella for saying words that aint even cuss words lmao damn

wow can say damn but not the adult version of crap. what the hell.

[pliant hatch]

the s word is still considered a cuss word in many areas.

[graceful lynx]

Anyone got OCD checking discord servers here? And hypervigilence

[proper mantle]

so is damn and hell

but yeah 's word' bad

its whatever tho

[pliant hatch]

well it's whatever the server says so.

[proper mantle]

majorty of Halos playerbase is adults. and dudes 30+

[graceful lynx]

Watching Star Trek voyager. I like doctor who star trek and halo

[pulsar heron]

this isn't the place to ask, but i hope you can find what you need elsewhere

[proper mantle]

Doctor Who is goated

[graceful lynx]

oh of course

Is it ofcourse or ofcourse

[pliant hatch]

you'll need to take it up with modmail.

[proper mantle]

got robbed when he couldnt tell his lady he loved her before the nova ran out of energy

[graceful lynx]

Lol

[pulsar heron]

that's great. but this server has rules, rules which you inherently agree to by being in the server. if you break those, that's not really anyone's fault but your own

[graceful lynx]

Of course*

[proper mantle]

it dont matter to me much idrc just weird how sum mainly adults play cant talk like adults

[proper mantle]

and i talk with cussive words. bc im adult. i dont use them towards or to talk about anyone. its just how i talk.

im acc a very nice person. i just cuss. woopty doo

[pliant hatch]

not everyone here is an adult

[opal bay]

dude i got a warning for making a joke

[graceful lynx]

The TV connection goes off when I check discord. Hotspot

[proper mantle]

relatable asf

[pulsar heron]

i'm also an adult. i also cuss. but i'm able to stop doing that where i need to. self control and restraint are good skills to have.

[candid tusk]

Tora's shift key died. 😭

[proper mantle]

i have self control and restraint. got nothing to do with how someone talks

[waxen rose]

It does though

I have self restraint in how I talk to not tell everyone in my vicinity they’re all chuds

[proper mantle]

not always. cussing is absolutely normal

[pulsar heron]

i almost never use caps lol

[waxen rose]

When you find a job you’ll understand that it isn’t

[opal bay]

ye for mine i didnt even cuss its so dumb

[proper mantle]

and whats that gotta do with cussing? lmao

[proper mantle]

ive had jobs before. im 24.

[waxen rose]

24 and act 16

[pulsar heron]

i think this is becoming an unproductive conversation now. eclipse, if you'd like to argue about the server's rules you can message modmail

[calm fiber]

For server moderation concerns, please send a direct message to @bleak yoke.

[proper mantle]

im not acting 16 dude.

[candid tusk]

Tora you were too quick. I had a funny retort. 😔

[waxen rose]

Heartbroken

[graceful lynx]

Hm

[proper mantle]

im not arguing ab the rules im saying what i said before isnt cussing.

[pulsar heron]

[proper mantle]

bc then so should Hell and Damn.

[candid tusk]

You found it! 😄

[pulsar heron]

regardless of whether it's cussing, it was obviously filtered.

[acoustic viper]

You just kind of need to accept it.

I’d argue censoring it can be considered immature in its own right, but by and large, it’s fine.

[proper mantle]

so then filter Damn and Hell if yall gonna filter non cuss words

[acoustic viper]

It’s not hard not to curse, and it’s done to avoid the bad apples.

[proper mantle]

i didnt say it was?

yall just saying anything now tf

[graceful lynx]

It's all about empathy love and connection and maybe agreeing to disagree

[acoustic viper]

The maturity level on this server by and large isn’t as high as on others, like Halopedia, so better to err on the side of caution.

[granite breach]

What I miss?

[pliant hatch]

nothing

[acoustic viper]

Depends on the channel though, as well.

[proper mantle]

yea im sure theres better servers where the people who are supposed Halo players arent so soft. didnt know i fell into COD and fortnite territory.

[acoustic viper]

It’s not about being soft.

It’s just how they prefer to run things.

It is slightly humorous that the actual ganes and books tend to discuss subject matter that’s a no-go, ahd there are several quotes from stories and stuff I can’t say, in discussions for example, but it is what it is, lol.

[pulsar heron]

you can provide this feedback to modmail for consideration, i dont have the power to do this 🙂

we're going to move on from this now.

[ancient totem]

Honestly it's kind of nice to have rules. Other places dont have them . Like elder scrolls star wars.

[granite breach]

Probably good that I wasn't here for this convo.

[acoustic viper]

I also just don’t care enough to care.

[waxen rose]

I added Dean and Sam Winchester to my island

[ancient totem]

I guess it doesn't really matter if there are rules or not. Discord is weird anywhere you go. You can still get kicked out of servers even if there are no rules.

[candid tusk]

The Elder Scrolls: Star Wars was my favorite game.

[ancient totem]

Im talking about discord.

[candid tusk]

That's it. You're kicked from my discord server now.

[granite breach]

Oof! Shots fired! Shots fired!

[ancient totem]

I dont cuss at all . Because I see cussing as failure. Especially in the chat.

[pulsar heron]

we're moving on now.

[pulsar heron]

that is cute. i have never watched supernatural

[ancient totem]

Not in anger or out of anger.

[pulsar heron]

do they have hyper realistic faces

[granite breach]

Are we moving via warthog or pelican?

[waxen rose]

You'll love the yaoi angel romance between Dean Winchester men of men and Castiel… angel who doesn't know how to use a straw

[pulsar heron]

all i know is we're going.... to war

[waxen rose]

Miranda is that…

[ancient totem]

In the war and order chat .

[pulsar heron]

i know this guy. the angel that gets sent to superhell

[granite breach]

Then no worries, I'll bring a Spartan Laser with me.

[candid tusk]

Up the stairs and back down the stairs again. Quick bit of cardio to get the war juices flowing.

[granite breach]

Only Angel I know from Hell is Gogeta.

[ancient totem]

Extreme self control. For 1 .

[waxen rose]

Can't even have angels these days without them getting sent to superhell💔

[pulsar heron]

average ultrakill plot

[waxen rose]

Gabriel deserves what he has coming to him.

[ancient totem]

Calm and serious

[misty marsh]

I involuntarily had to listen to someone rant about how Jensen Ackles was the original victim and creator of the o-verse a couple weeks ago 💔

[ancient totem]

[ancient totem]

Some times emotes say more then words and allow for more then I actually have to speak

[waxen rose]

IM CSCKLING HELP ME

I met all the actors irl (of Sam, Dean, and Cass) but couldn't pay for a picture so next time they come to my state capital im buying that picture
Its literally just called the supernatural fan club meetup, it was heaven on earth

[steady jolt]

You met Jensen, Jared and Misha? :o

[granite breach]

I would LOVE a Spartan Laser 2.0 not gonna lie.

[thick furnace]

if u overheat it u vaporize everyone nearby 🗣️

[waxen rose]

Yes and me and my best friend are planning on making a road trip down to illinois in November to meet them all again plus a few more actors in supernatural because we are both fangirls of the entire show

She loves Cass and Dean is such a huge icon in my transgender journey

[ancient totem]

I dont know any of these people. Or if they are people.

I don't know if they are a band a company or people

[candid tusk]

They're the actors for the main cast of Supernatural.

[ancient totem]

Oh . That show

I dont watch it .

I think I've seen someone else watch it before.

[candid tusk]

Makes sense, you don't exude strong SuperWhoLock energy.

[ancient totem]

I dont think i would really get into super natural.

[candid tusk]

What would you get really into?

[waxen rose]

People who dont like supernatural are plagues upon this earth

[jade gust]

Into bed

[jade gust]

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-look-the-other-way-look-away-awkward-weird-gif-17246188

[chilly summit]

real snoozer

[waxen rose]

You're a fake friend

[jade gust]

Consider, the bed is warm

[chilly summit]

nice and toasty

[jade gust]

https://tenor.com/view/mudae-evangelion-neon-genesis-evangelion-gif-24418826

[meager linden]

Are you sure?

[ancient totem]

Honestly. I bet red vs blue would be good for gamers.

Any thing related to games is for gamers

The they are ove there because we are here and we are here because their over there. In red vs blue. Thats pretty good logic for a game.

[ancient totem]

I dont really watch tv tbh

[pliant hatch]

never seen it either

[jade gust]

Fishing is also pretty good concept to base a game around

[inner bridge]

Idk man those monster hunting in the woods shows went hard as a kid

Bigfoot was always just one episode away

[heady pendant]

Are you shore

[inner bridge]

https://tenor.com/view/rage-gif-5876125566236340594

[heady pendant]

lol

[ancient totem]

Used to watch cartoons

[heady pendant]

This is good news, we can finally be bees you'll live like a bee.

[ancient totem]

Like cartoon network

[inner bridge]

adventure time 🔥

[ancient totem]

Yes . Flap jack and powder also

[heady pendant]

Ben 10

[inner bridge]

wow the f word is a no go

[ancient totem]

Yes

[heady pendant]

😂

[inner bridge]

okay what about screw

okay in that case screw flapjack

[heady pendant]

Generator Rex

[ancient totem]

Don't say jt with meaning

[jade gust]

I feel like Bigfoot is misunderstood by most people. He's just a guy who likes his secluded life-style. Sadly he gets lumped in with more violent cryptids like the Jersey Devil

[inner bridge]

that show sucked

not all Cartoon Network shows were equal

[waxen rose]

“I dont watch tv, I watch youtube” GET OUT OF MY FACE

[thick furnace]

rtas and arbiter best couple oat

[rocky umbra]

?

Huh?

[waxen rose]

What the hell did someone just @ me

[obsidian wyvern]

it was albert

[jade gust]

As in Albert Wesker?

[rocky umbra]

Why did i get warned??? I asked is pizza or chicken good

[calm fiber]

For server moderation concerns, please send a direct message to @bleak yoke.

[ancient totem]

Same here. I watch a lot of YouTube

[waxen rose]

So you watch youtube and not peak?

[ancient totem]

Best team in a game. Who else to have as a companion then the Arbiter ?

[rocky umbra]

Dawg I asked when did Cortana die?

When I got warned. Wowwww blaming the innocents fr

[ancient totem]

Peak at super natural ? Not really no . I dont think i would voluntarily go look for it. Like most other movies

[pulsar heron]

lets not do that.

[rocky umbra]

Let’s not do what???

I asked is pizza or popcorn good

[waxen rose]

Keeping yourself from good media in this short life of ours is heart breaking

[thick furnace]

yall ever had chocolate popcorn

[candid tusk]

Both are good. Popcorn chicken pizza is great.

[pulsar heron]

you know exactly what you sent. if you genuinely want to know why you were warned, or want to try to appeal the warning, send a message to modmail.

[waxen rose]

You didnt.

[misty marsh]

Sounds rank

[rocky umbra]

Wdym????

[thick furnace]

its goated bro

[ancient totem]

I genuinely just dont get into movies. Even red vs blue. Im too lazy

[waxen rose]

I know what you @ed me with dude.

[pulsar heron]

i could see salted dark chocolate popcorn being nice

[meager linden]

Pineapple pizza👍

[thick furnace]

i remember having some with m&ms in it too

[misty marsh]

I only like sweet and salted popcorn tbh

[waxen rose]

Im sorry to hear that

[candid tusk]

Chocolate covered popcorn is fantastic.

[ancient totem]

Yeah . I should probably be more selective at what I look at instead of watching shorts

[rocky umbra]

I got one important question!

[thick furnace]

salty popcorn is so good

[ancient totem]

Im kind of sorry too.

[waxen rose]

Popcorn is good but not for my braces sadly

[candid tusk]

You should watch Days of our Lives from the beginning.

[thick furnace]

just rip them out

[waxen rose]

I remember hearing a friend tell me their mom did that and it was the most painful thing she ever did

[candid tusk]

One Piece fans could do it.

[ancient totem]

I take screenshot of what yoy say. Hopefully remember to check it

[thick furnace]

thats actually just child abuse bro

[waxen rose]

Rip out their braces?

[thick furnace]

😭

[waxen rose]

No the mom did it to herself when she was a kid not to her daughter I should've clarified

[candid tusk]

They already like One Piece, don't torture them further.

[jade gust]

I kinda want to try that. It's been a while since I've had popcorn

[waxen rose]

They deserve to suffer if their favorite media is one peice

[thick furnace]

oh 😭

[ancient totem]

Everyone in Japan likes that .

[pulsar heron]

i'm very much a salted popcorn kind of guy. i really have to be in the right mood for sweet popcorn, but i dont mind it if its mixed with salted popcorn

[thick furnace]

their suffering will last as long as the shows pacing

[waxen rose]

Another reminder why ill never visit Japan

[ancient totem]

I dont know lol

[naive turret]

I'll take your ticket thanks

[waxen rose]

I just dont want to go to Japan as a femme looking person for obvious reasons

[thick furnace]

🦃

[jade gust]

Fair! I'm kinda indifferent on the type of popcorn usually so I'll just eat any

[faint mantle]

@rare cedar confirm

[calm fiber]

For server moderation concerns, please send a direct message to @bleak yoke.

[rocky umbra]

It wasn’t me btw it must be the ghost.

[ancient totem]

A lot of people in Japan like it . Even the older people

[pulsar heron]

enough.

[rocky umbra]

See? I got a witness.

[rocky umbra]

Bro what did I do I asked is halo CE good?

[waxen rose]

That's enough of halo discord for me for the day

[naive turret]

I don't find the art style very appealing tbf, but the live action seems neat.
Maybe they'll finish that by the time the actors are 90.

[faint mantle]

You sure? I was about to show you the magical creature that invaded my table

[rocky umbra]

Could you make me a sandwich pls

[jade gust]

Yeah, that's fair. I know a former friend of mine had a trip planned for Japan back in 2024. Sadly I don't know if they managed to do it because of a few things happening between me and them and I remember hearing they ended up breaking their leg a few weeks before they were meant to go

[ancient totem]

People from Japan are very nice.

[waxen rose]

No…please I need to see this beautiful creature…

[jade gust]

Finish it? Let's be real, One Piece is never going to end

[faint mantle]

Some weird kind of monster, idk who let it inside

[naive turret]

Sure what flavour do you want, PB&J or knuckle?

[waxen rose]

Im so sorry to hear that, I hope they're okay in the end! Breaking a leg is a terrible thing, worse than breaking most bones in the body

[rocky umbra]

What’s a knuckle?

[chilly summit]

pbj pls

[jade gust]

From what I hear from someone I am still friends with is they're doing their best and they seem to be surviving the best they can as a non-binary person in Texas can do

[pulsar heron]

pbj bad 👎

[waxen rose]

CINNAMONROLL!!! Hello!!! Cute!!

[faint mantle]

That's not what you called it last time

[waxen rose]

Oh my god that must be so difficult

[jade gust]

Aye. I know

[waxen rose]

Even being transgender right now in the states is hard enough. I couldn't imagine being lgbtq+ in the southern states

[faint mantle]

Merty has receipts

[waxen rose]

Gyulp….

[faint mantle]

Also

The KFC is gone

[waxen rose]

WHAT NO

[faint mantle]

You will not believe what promo took their place

[waxen rose]

Is it stupid call of duty

[chilly summit]

arby's

It looks like there might be some @halo @CocaCola Fanta cups at @KFC_MEXICO

X · May 5, 2026, 10:33 PM

[chilly summit]

oh peak nvm

[ancient totem]

I know a few trans . Im from Louisiana . For the most part. I dont think anyone cares.

[waxen rose]

Why does Mexico get cooler things and in america we dont even get any halo master chief fantas anywhere
I know where I must move to

[faint mantle]

DUDE

[jade gust]

Yeah. Thankfully they live in Austin, so one of the more accepting places in Texas, but that doesn't mean it's a perfect place to be

[ancient totem]

But theres no trans special privileges.

[proper mantle]

i just had a Cheif Orange Fanta the other day

[faint mantle]

You're speaking from an ivory tower smh

[ancient totem]

But theres not much of anything here either.

[proper mantle]

why would they have them anyways 💀

[waxen rose]

I know im joking

But even rn in minnesota it's bad because of a certain group

[ancient totem]

Like restrooms and things like that

[waxen rose]

Right

Sure dude

[faint mantle]

@waxen rose I want you to go to this message, scroll down, and look at the timestamps

That's how long I searched and suffered thru Texas

For the ONE DAY I COULS

[jade gust]

Thankfully they were one of the toughest people I knew and have some experience with martial arts (Being an animator who loved fight scenes meant it helped with their work)

[waxen rose]

Merty im sorry you have to suffer…. Pringle….

Can we have a moment of silence for Pringle

[naive turret]

Never been big on pringles, the tube makes getting the crisps out a bit obtuse

[waxen rose]

Moa pringl

[naive turret]

oh aye they did do that didn't they lol

[faint mantle]

Keep scrolling

[jade gust]

You would hate to learn there's an off-brand Pringles here in the UK where the tube has a smaller radius so it's even harder to get them out

[waxen rose]

Merty had to go to the evil untamed distant lands of.… walmart

[faint mantle]

IN TEXAS

DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS TO CROSS THE BORDER

[waxen rose]

The last time I went to a walmart in a southern state someone was running through the store with no pants on

Its just the walmart culture

[jade gust]

I feel like I avoided pretty much all the stuff like that when I was in Texas

Granted, the main places I went was my hotel, the convention centre next to the hotel, my former friend's apartment and a sushi place

[waxen rose]

“Why are you entering?”

“Pri ngle…”

[naive turret]

Going on a pilgrimage for them at this point

[jade gust]

Oh and pretty close to the football stadium (And I mean proper Football, not American) in Austin too

[waxen rose]

Sushi places in texas sounds like hell on earth

[jade gust]

It was genuinely really nice

[ancient totem]

Teaxs has everything...

[waxen rose]

Should've went to rain forest café

[jade gust]

Like, I wish I could go back there

[faint mantle]

It is cars and cars and cars...

[waxen rose]

Hurry up people I need Pringle

[ancient totem]

Whatever your looking for . It's definitely in Texas

[waxen rose]

Miku binder is in texas?

[naive turret]

Except a Disney / Universal. Which is why I've never be-

MIKU

Sorry reflex

[waxen rose]

LOL?

[ancient totem]

I don't know what that is. But yep
