Not "no emojis" more "no emojis that look like dicks or other nsfw stuff"
we should judge him for buying nitro
I see. Thanks!
by any chance, does anyone remember what price steam had on Dragon Age Inquisition a month before?
i remember it was cheaper, but that could on another game client
goty cost almost 50 dollar now
good thing its on a steam sale rn
Game came out in 2014, do not pay $50 for it, as good as it is.
question:if i buy Hitman 3 Deluxe Edition,does it comes with the past 2 games and dlcs?
Only if it explicitly says it does on the page.
That was odd. Opened Discord and somehow this server stated that it was a Call of Duty server. I close the app and come back, it returns back to normal
Yea, some people seem to have this weird bug. Looks like nothing we can do about it. 
It is what it is 
hows Taco Bell?
i think it's good, even better with mcdonald's fries
Texas Chicken best fries
a good wendy's will fill ya up well
local take-away still kicks all their butts tho
true
very true
also can you confirm this Rivsie:https://youtu.be/9ZdavNHGUho
my place has this thing where you make 2 patty out of rice and stuff some curry into it
lit-arse stuff
her voice makes me want to remove my ears.
"Fish threatens to destroy Australia"
oh yeah that's just an invasive species, we've got a bunch of those here
it ain't got nothing on the Cane Toad.
Google said theyre just big frogs
in worst cases,Aussie will just run out of sugar....right?
They eat everything, up to and including things that are only slightly smaller than it.
they're also very poisonous, so they kill off native species.
if a dog bites one, they die.
theyve nearly driven a bunch of species here to extinction.
so you got killer frogs,fish that lives on the surface,massive rats that can kick you through a wall
there's official open season on them, if you see one, you need to kill it. Best way is to pour some kinda cleaning fluid on them. Most places here that have a backyard leave a bottle of dettol by the back door.
Kangaroo's are actually very sweet animals and also delicious. Think of them as deer that can be bigger than ppl.
im scared
I've held a baby one before. they're freaking adorable.
also how much of a threat is kangaroos that your gov allows you chads to kill them?
not at all, they're a native species. Some ppl farm them for their meat.
oh theres loads of native ones. my old place had them camping out on the front lawn during the day time.
I've been looking for a new keyboard, as my spacebar and a ton of other keys are giving out and i've already fixed this keyboard enough times, any recommendations?
you tried Cosair?
I know someone who had one of their keyboards, yes. Havent tried it myself, looking for some general "hey that keyboard is what i use" or "hey that keyboard is terrible"
I've got a Corsair keyboard myself, the left-ctrl key is a bit busted but apart from that it's a really nice board. Expensive though and mechanical, if that's what you're looking for.
considering he's going all out,then yeah
Which board, Riv?
strafe mk2 rgb mx-red.
it was quite a lot cheaper when i got my copy, plus i had a cashback thing.
windows lock button, programmable rgb, multi profiles, 2 layer key presses, its a nice board.
left ctrl.... was it b/c of warframe, rivs
...it may have been.
my old laptop has a similar problem, till i bound crouch to one of my extra mouse buttons
actually i had that issue with my mouse, the middle click stopped working. so one rebind later and mouse side down works wonders.
oh that 'board comes with a 2year warranty btw. manufacturer.
whats wrong with left ctrl?
Likely just overused, worn out.
Tenno gotta skate.
on the topic of gaming gears,anyone can recommend me with a good headphone?wired or wireless is ok
<=200 bucks
I've used a Razer Nari for awhile, the base version is ~150 USD, the Lite is ~90. Nice wireless headset, over ear. I've also been using a SteelSeries Arctis 7 set for a couple months, and its on par with the Nari, goes for ~150.
Also wireless, but both can be used as wired headsets without issue.
cool,but too bad i forgot about taxes
The easiest answer with headphones is: don't buy gaming ones.
they charge excess amounts for subpar equipment.
My first "serious" set were the ATH-m50s. I'm sure there's a new model out there somewhere. I had them for years.
i used this Samsung earphone that i bought for 15 bucks,serves me well but wired makes me feel......you know,wired
the drivers in a set matter far more than basically anything else. good quality ones will improve your sound greatly.
what do you think about TUF?ASUS's cheap version of ROG?
i have horrible taste and choice when it comes to tech,since i just got mine a few months back
the h3 variant seems to be popular for a budget set, I can't speak to the sound quality but if you've never had a pricy set before they'd seem alright for a basic set.
How does it feel having a crush on someone?
Cuz Iām having mixed thought all the time,and Iām not sure if itās healthy
š¦
I'd suggest asking someone that you know, like a parent or family member or close friend for advice. Any you get on here won't be good for your specific situation.
Alcohol is a solution, chemically speaking
Not a good one if you're new to love tho.
alcohol is not always the answer, however, it can be a very good guess.
Me:why donāt I have time to do anything?
Also me: https://youtu.be/GHDQy_j9P5E
smh, its not bad to sometimes get lost in thought or a good game/movie/hobby, but 10+hours of something is overindulgence lol
how many Gb does div2 takes up?
Roughly 70Gb
68.1gb as of right now.
dang
Just for anyone that is interested, Rage 2 is free on EGL. Really fun mindless shooter.
Valuable time wasted
old Hitmans were the best these new ones suck
nah, theyāre pretty good

Just out of interest what football team does everyone support ?
Manchester United
yea codenamed 47 , contracts , blood money n silent assassin š
willing to bet he just means blood money 
very true
I tried R6 the other day since we'll it's on GP and
Is it supposed to be like a tactic counter strike of sorts?
It started as a return to the first days of Rainbow with a small team, set in specific scenarios, starting with a planning phase, then to action phase, and trial and error or finding out what works and what doesnt. Instead it turned into being player vs player focused, with insane and over the top "powers" that each operator has. Its not even really Rainbow anymore. Just my opinion as I am sure others would love to prove me wrong but yeah...
yea Rainbow isnāt as fun as it used to be
As "Siege" (its own IP) it works and can be enjoyable, but as a Rainbow game its laughable at best.
To better answer your question though without my ranting lol, think of it as a "less" fantasy "more" grounded Hero-Shooter (akin to Overwatch), with two teams of players with a defend/attack centered mission objective, with Operatives/Heroes bringing their own skills/powers to the battle.
āgroundedā is a term that Siege is rapidly drifting away from but yea
I might have oversimplified it š
Really feel its choking the franchise too, its why I wish they would drop the R6 name sake and give us Patriots or some fresh air to the IP.
not gonna happenš
Rainbow Six Quarantine will be more of this
I havent read much on it past the one snippit/trailer that was ..last year? or whenever it was.
thatās all there is on it
Is it supposed to be a completely new entry, or a type of expansion to Siege?
Ah, well damn
I like how Siege started off with actual counter terrorists, like SAS and FBI, and the new operator is... an actual criminal
i mean i donāt like it but whatever
Oh I agree, i loved its initial release and I had a lot of hope too.
Then it just kept trying to compete with Overwatch (why i mentioned it) and quickly got out of hand
it just got squandered over time
Case in point: recent operator female Venom Snake Aruni
š Exactly
New ones are better,not story wise but graphic and gameplay wise
Blood Money exists tho.
played all of them to the 2021 release, blood money is overrated af
It's better than the new ones, but a big part of that is that it's bigger than 2 and 3 put together.
more extensive, but 2 and 3 have their high points. not bad.
Maybe Blood Money Remastered?
gameplay wise
and story.
Absolution is better than every other Hitman game not listed there, to you?
Tbh the disguise mechanics are halfway realistic,since changing your clothes doesnāt make people forget your face or how you have a barcode behind your bald head
Just not gonna mention how in Hitman 3 you talk to a bunch of people face-to-face right after they just spoke to the original person who owned those clothes.
But that's kinda a thing in a lot of games, suspension of disbelief and all that.
oh for sure, decent game. I'd recommend it if you have an issue with playing older stuff.
is it?
iāve heard Dartmoor and Carpathian Mountains are the bad ones
Dartmoor because it doesnāt have much outside the murder mystery and Carpathian Mountains because itās not really a proper level
vegemite is a burnt sandwich slice?
toast, better off cooking it well.
I just got an idea
How about you put your avt on a slice of toast?
like,literally edit your avt onto a toast,then use that pic as an avt for the duration of this name
That would kinda ruin the majesty of this pfp.
MW2 campaign remastered is fifty four gigabytes
thatās atrocious
thank god i havenāt bought it, guess iāll keep waiting for a sale
Wdym Complete Edition?
You mean that one with 1+2+full dlc?
Ohhhh
It was the crack that has both ones,not the one on sale actually
any reviews for HyperX Cloud Stinger Core?
4.5/5 in 1500 reviews. Seems fairly good for a gaming set.
cool,just got mine
grats
wyd
Near-midnight in Vietnam question:Your opinion on Dream?
what's that?
the shitty Youtuber?
Thatās right Kirby
oh a minecraft youtuber, it's 2016 again.
The one who cheats his speed runs and got away with that,making a whole career from that at the same time
Kinda reminds me of that guy who got some sort of special script for Iron Horse
even if he didnāt cheat his content is trite
Tbh if he didnāt cheat,his manhunt stuff is decent
He got some skills(provided he did not cheat)
That time when he landed on lava with a few boats is kinda impressive
Itās just that I donāt like people who blows up from cheating
Dream Stans are equally smoothbrain to Kpop Stans
So yeah,thatās kinda how he got away
Aanyway,any shower thought you ever had thatās cool or weird?
Iāll start:if crimes were legalized,crime rate in the world would drop to 0%

sorry for being a noob, but whatās wyd?

"What you doing"... i think? Im getting old and out of touch with a lot of the internet lingo lol
Can we not and say we didnt?
wyd
Quit it.
leet.
What in the hell is going on here.... š Is "WYD" Aspect kryptonite?
Looks to be the start of spam, trying to cut it off before it becomes a problem.
Ahh, i see now. š
mod abuse
how can someone spam in slowmode
get off urself
I mean.. I could.. easily
But i like it here so I would rather not
3 messages 7 mins apart
aint nothing wrong with some self love.
thats what you were talking about right?
..heh giggity
Ya know.. gonna just leave this one alone. lol Been up too long and dont want to say something I will regret.
wyd
Andddd weāre back full circle,thanks Pyro
whats a circle
a object
@dense parcel whats that
šŖ
so wyd
why isnt General Assembly listed in the "Strongholds" category on the Division wiki?š¤
Imagine if there was a division 2 collab with arknights as another event
But there was actual gear based off the characters (Like Exusiai which can have an exotic SMG based off her)
i doubt theyll put that much effort into a crossover event at this point
Exusiai just uses a vector, no? And some kinda AR when upgraded, i believe
She still uses an smg in her in-game sprites
also wtf is Arknights
Basically
Think division 2
But instead of a 3rd person shooter with realistic characters
It's a tower defence gacha game with all the characters being a humanoid of something, with no actual humans
"tower defence gacha game"š¤®
Gotta hustle some way
It's not that bad
Plus the abilties are cool too
Like Mostima who can stop time
Silverash who can deal tons of damage to heavily-armored enemies
And W who can apply c4s to multiple enemies before blowing them up
Yes
I researched a bit on the game
at least Girls Frontline was about guns, i doubt they will do a crossover with... that
Similar overarching concepts between Arknights and Div, in a wierd way.
I know thats a meme, but lets keep away from that.
We donāt do that here
'We' are inevitable
We've got all the marvel references today!
I got that one
The lil angewy titan is having intewnet issuws
That sounds like a threat. Lets not.
Makes ya seem edgy, i'd quit regardless.
Use the space stone
yea its not a good look for you or anyone my dude
So how is everyone today
Tired, but overall alright. Got a haircut, finished my sewing project, new keyboard came in, went to BK for dinner and now i'm here.
Im kinda offended as a dokutah myself lol.
...what?
Its what the player character is called in Arknights
right
A doctor.
Or dokutah like how the fanbase like to poke fun at japanese pronunciations lol.
where'd they get their degree
Idk lol, they say he is a tactical genius and everything.
But from where idfk.
Besides in the beginning of the story hes an amnesiac
the most famous of all the scientific and medical fields- Military Tactics
so the Titanfall 2 campaign was oddly fun.
you can really see the genesis of ideas that'd turn into Fallen Order.
The time travel aspect should of been used more in Titanfall 2. That was a really well done mission.
Also just started playing Savage Planet. Its turning into a hilariously fun game.
Any recommendations for a good free shooter?
finally someone else gets it!
I usually dont play f2p shooters as they all tend to fall into the same p2w mechanics. Only one that is alright is Warframe
i made myself a dog, i genuinely wasn't expecting what happened to happen when I did, ngl.
I just started playing it and have completely went in blind knowing absolutely nothing about the game. Really enjoying it so far.
If you can, make a new character and be one of the non-human options.
100% worth it for the joke.
Will do!
My brother told me to try the game, so once he is able I want to try the coop out. Seems it could get pretty fun also
CoOp in that does look like fun.
EKO's sense of humor (so far) is my favorite part of the game.
"How cute, its running away thinking you are going to kill it. How right it is..."
I still feel kinda bad whenever I punt one of those little furry things.
wyd
The screaming turkey things had me rolling the first time one ran by me. Caught me completely off guard
Damn now i gotta play more.. off i go!
have fun! ive gotta go punch Anders in the face.
Mage Anders? or different game?
yeah DA:2 anders. Such a jerk.
Solas is way worse though, ugh Trespasser here i come.
Still never got around to playing it yet, but yeah have fun!
Hey fun fact
The Division had a collab with Girls Frontline
And one of the exotics, Chameleon, was featured in the latter
it was held by one of the T-Dolls named Kriss Vector
Yeah all the girls/T-Dolls in GF are named after guns
yeahhhhh that sure feels like a new low
Raid Shadow Legends but with anime girls and guns
saw the gameplay for that
Yeah I get it
it's resource-heavy
but it isn't like Raid or Epic Seven
huh,did it break any guidelines mods?
wyd
come on pyro,its not fun anymore
also for context:i posted a link about a guy taking pictures of him since 12 yo til married
and idk what's wrong of it
idk
is marvel avengers good? iām thinking about getting it i played the beta
apparently itās kinda bad
oh aight
yea shit was $29 so i bought it
so wyd
Why do you always say that?
idk
whatās the point
he / she is just wondering wydš¢
well i had a silly little idea
as we all know, Rainbow Six Patriots became The Division
in Rainbow Six Siege, the training and operation of counter terrorist groups becomes commercialised and publicised, being made into a god damn sports tournament
if they bring back Patriots, that should be brought up as some of the gripes the terrorists have with the way the world is
sounds interesting š¤ u might be on to something
maybe i would be but that would require Ubisoft to show some self awareness and raise criticisms to their own writing, which probably wonāt happen
Mismanagement over anything else. Companies have become too greedy and blinded with draining our wallets rather than giving us innovation and fresh ideas out of their IP's. Not saying all companies, but most.
Patriots looked like it could have really brought back R6 but we got.. Siege.. which like you said isnt R6 at all
although to be fair, Ubisoft did recently put out a Siege animated short that shows why hiring mercenaries to your elite team is a terrible idea
Gameshow featuring agencies has got to be the best description Iv seen for it tbh
if they do more of this plot then i will forgive them
Iv said it before, but if they just make Siege its own IP, dropping its relation to R6, it would probably fair better by this point. Especially with the insane "powers" the operators have been getting.
too right
Oryx is a straight up X Man breaking down walls and making NBA players look like clowns with his jumps
Not trying to hate on the game itself, as again on its own it works and can be enjoyable. But its only choking the R6 IP with how ridiculous it keeps getting.
Was reminded of Outbreak the other day and that makes me really fear for the series as its even more far fetched.
Or quarantine rather, my bad
theyāve changed the name from Quarantine, apparently itās Parasite but maybe not
Lovely.
i doubt theyāll drop the name Rainbow Six but if it launches without Tom Clancyās name, would that be better or worse?
Worse in my opinion, as it only proves they are milking the franchise any way they can. Clancy would be rolling in his grave if he seen how his ideas have been reduced to "Lets do it even if it makes no sense. Why? Because it makes us money." At least he tried to keep most his work and ideas more in the realm of reality instead of high-fantasy.
well it would at least be admitting that itās no longer anything like his vision
True
I just get heated a bit talking about R6 and how its turned out. Grew up on it so to see how its turned out just... ugh. Irritates me lol
Iāve only played Siege and a bit of both Vegas games but I hate when something abandons itās roots, I donāt have much knowledge of Clancyās books but I know itās not the same
Over time it became more "action shooter" than "tactical shooter". Granted, some IP's need to adapt to the market to be successful but if its at the expense of what made the game great to begin with, just make a new IP instead of jumping on the coattails of another franchise.
side note- is the submarine on Yacht just a minimal reference to Red October? I always wondered what was going on with that map
Ya know never thought about that until now. Interesting thought though
I had a friend who didnāt even know there was a submarine there, which is baffling seeing as itās a spawn point
Also maybe they removed it (I havenāt looked in agessss) but thereās a big arse ship off in the distance
and thereās the discussion of what terrorists are doing on a frozen yacht, I guess hostage is the only game mode that makes sense on that map
"Gameshow with Operatives" as you said š
Then it will make sense.
Really like that description the more I see it. Its so damn accurate
"And introducing on the Orange team: SAaaam FISHER!"
Terrorist Hunt gets renamed cus it could be offensive to audiences?š¤
the audiences in universe that is
āBefore Caveira will be allowed to compete on Team Ash sheāll have to prove her skills in harrowing match of, TRAINING GROUNDSSSSS!ā something like that
God this is making it sound like an actual thing š We should really not give them any more ideas
Ah I thought at first they actually did rename it.. lol sad that it wouldnt surprise me if they did.
havenāt they already changed the name?
Oh god.. they actually did
Just... wow
Oh Ubi... why must you do the things you do. š
PMCs are allowed all over the place but the word terrorist is a no-go
Censorship is a fickle and weird thing indeed. Okay to literally blow holes through someone, but a word is a no no.
jesus there was even mercenaries in Far Cry 3
so, PMCs were the bad guys in both Division games, Far Cry 3, HAWX, Ghost Recon Wildlands and are causing trouble in Siege too
jesus Ubisoft
Its an easy cop out sadly. Blame Blackwater I say lol
Could invent an unknown organization with twisted or questionable morals but I suppose they are afraid it being too close to the real world so they just blame a PMC š
thing is they nearly did that in Siege, culminating in the pretty good Article 5 mission, and then they just... stopped
and in both Division games, they made the LMB and Black Tusk the biggest threats
I will admit though, Black Tusk I enjoy as a villian, but only because it fits well enough in the Division universe
I still think they should be backed by another foreign power though. Just being a stupidly powerful PMC is a bit much imo
i wouldnāt mind if they werenāt described as a PMC, just what is the point
make them CIA or FBI or ruddy DARPA for all i care, i donāt get it
I know its a trope but at least have Russia or China be their main backers. Would explain their stupidly OP tech and funding.
And yeah, be like a break away from DARPA that joined another country, came back to take over type of thing
So many ways to make them more interesting and have more 'depth'.
Granted who knows, they might come out with more content that makes them amazing
i hope that the militarised faction in the next game- and there should only be one militarised faction- is a bit more conventional
maybe a legit military coup, or maybe a foreign nation is trying to take territory in the USA
hell i had fanciful idea that the UN would send in troops to try to stabilise the region, and the Division would have to fight them off a technicality, to defend liberty and the Constitution or something
then Division agents would be split between ācontinuity of governmentā and continuing American independence, or going Rogue to assist the humanitarian effort
Rogue agents would be actually justified for once at least somewhat, and would be allowed to make good use of ANNA
they could do a lot of things, that would be better than what they have done- but thatās not news and i donāt wanna just rag on div 2 at all times
Well, they did plan on stopping content, but now been greenlit for more, so who knows. We may just get some really much appreciated content in the near future.
@hoary locust azur has convinced me to try FFXIV
Give it a go, have a friend that loves that game. Tried it myself but I burned myself out on MMORPGs.
playing ac syndicate again š¼
Anthem
Attempting another go at Cyberpunk.. š
Seems some things have been ironed out but, largely, it still needs work.
ah iām still on my first play through
havenāt played in a week or so
runs pretty smooth on stadia guess pc get the short end of the stick with 2077
I bought it on Stadia too, got the whole bundle thing... I wont mention my PC version though. š Still its making progress on being more stable, i.e. enjoyable. I just have to keep looking back at the Witcher series and how broken it was before it was near-perfected into its current state. Eventually, I feel CDPR will make it a magnificent game, but damn did it need a lot more time in the oven. lol
Only game I own on Stadia is CP2077. Too much delay for my liking and I dont much care for the feel of the Stadia controller either. š
ah i c
Even on CCU its hard for me to enjoy fully.
i play it on phone n ccu
Got an S8 so the screen is a bit too small for me. Bad eyesight š
xs max tho i play on my smaller razer phone 2 as well donāt mind small screens as i been mobile gaming along with console gaming for awhile
Ah, yeah I have never got into the mobile market side of gaming.
Solitaire and Mahjong is about the extent of it. Other than the occasional attempt at Idol games when im bored.
ah i c
idol or idle
idle...
alright
my bad
idol games are a whole different thing
Indeed XD
nun wrong with idol games
nah, just diferent
whatever tickles ur fantasy
True, but def different
My brother is the one that talked me into getting the CP2077 bundle for Stadia as he thinks its the best thing since sliced bread, but its for a different audience which I dont fit into.
ah u like local hardware
I.. attempted.. Avengers on release.. has it improved any?
idk as i forgot how it was on beta
I like minimal lag and delay yes lol
Plus my current rig is a tad more powerful than Stadia hardware
i like that for pvp n competitive stuff
Juuust a tad
1080Ti... but my cpu is only a 6700k (but at 4.8Ghz) so i can fiddle with graphics settings and get a much better performance boost than what Stadia can offer.
only reason i got into cloud streaming like geforce now n stadia n game pass is i hate downloading said games n updates for em
Really cant wait for the supposed upgrade Stadia has planned though, it seems like its gonna be amazing
plus i like convient of being able to play cp or division etc whenever i want n wherever
Oh I fully understand the appeal of Stadia, but as I stated, its for a specific audience which sadly I dont fall under.
Once a better codec for streaming is introduced to cut bandwidth usage and Stadia's hardware itself is upgraded for better fidelity in recent titles, I will probably like it even more.
wym
VP9 is great and all but 20Gb per hour is rough for those limited here in the US that are behind data caps
stadia been getting new titles
I hit 3 Tb of data last month
whatās vp9???
Its the codec used for transmitting data from Stadia to the User.. to put it in basic terms.
Only a smidge, and im on gigabit. But I feel its more the controller using wifi, instead of a direct feed like with PC.
Its minor, but to me, noticeable
Granted with the way Stadia works the less delay is only achieved with wifi
must be nice on a gig
My bank account states otherwise..
ouch
$225 a month for internet and tv.
whatās not bad
Ask anyone outside the US, and its robbery
When I was stationed in Europe I could get the same service for about $80 in Germany
was it good tho
That was back in 2009 though so it might have changed a bit since lol
Yeah it was consistant and reliable
Yea 81
Im not that old dammit!
š¼
@amber horizon u been watching any anime lately? i just started rewatching bleach
Ohhh Bleach! So excited for the Anime since its finally getting the thousand year arc
I gave up on the anime continuing about 5 years ago and finally read the manga to finish the series. My god its gonna be good. Well.. I hope they do it justice anyway. Love Bleach.
same bleach , tokyo ghoul , kengan ashura n baki my top 5 fav anime
Damn nice top select!
You will love it if you liked the previous season of AOT
Sub, mostly. Bleach is the only one I enjoy Dub
Bleach was my late teen years so I grew used to it in Dub.
I just like the emotion that Japanese VO's convey.
are they making a fifth movie tho? or nah
damn
Still, im just glad its getting animated. Kenpachi is one of the things I cant wait to see how they do that whole scene/story.
Dorohedoro is alright, but real wierd
does ichigo get another form?
is it dub or dub
Both
ty iāll check it out
should try to watch anime that doesnt have dubs, though. Bunch of anime dont get enough of a following to warrant a dub, but are totally worth watching
Ichigo gets his real Bankai, so thats something to look forward to. And yea.. his 'actual' shinigami power isnt what we have seen in the past. Wont say no more though as its already spoiling a lot I feel.
The man is so powerful its almost unfair I will add
oh i c ty for the info š¼ canāt wait
plot armor be strong with him
it wasnāt too bad with his fight against aizen
Just have to wait and see š
š
iāll try too i just donāt understand nor comprehend japanese stuff
I cant speak nor write Japanese, but the amount of emotion is why I usually stick with Subs
You... dont need to. You can read, yeah?
true
Not saying all Dubs are bad, not at all, but I find English VO's need a bit more... umph in their work.
The only dub i've liked was FMA:B.
but if iām watching a anime or show i wanna focus on the show n not read subtitles
i find it distracting
lol Favorite anime of any.
Its so good, man
Get better at reading.
Spead reading really helps to be fair
in do time
After the many years of hearing it I can sorta know what they are conveying without fulling reading it all
Theres so much more emotion in the JP voices than there is in the EN voices in almost every single show
yāall watch dragon ball š¼
Eh, never got too far into it.
Yep, even enjoyed GT (dont hate me)
Favorite enemy from the series is out of GT, so im a minority I guess.
Another series I grew up, along with Transformers, and Voltron
I've also heard amazing things about Jujutsu Kaisen, if i havent mentioned that before, but i havent seen any of it myself.
I enjoy it alot so far.
does it have gore n stuff?
Sorta?
Hey, action anime can be great without gore, yknow
Its odd.. i mean it deals with some messed up situations, but its not Berzerk or anything if thats what you mean.
true
Broaden your watching horizon
If you can handle Tokyo Ghoul, you should be able to handle Kaisen
I wouldnt discount a show solely because it doesnt have gore
Thats a terrible metric to judge a show
i donāt
True, got my close friend into Tokyo Ghoul and she hates gore
Tried Elfen Lied.. yeah that failed needless to say š
wym
eh heh...
I'd rather have well choreographed fights and no gore than gore but alright fights
That anime is definitely not for the average fan Ill say that
Its got a really... mature tone ill just say that
I mean, near everytime we reccomend an anime ya ask "does it have gore" so it seems like ya base it on that
ah good point my bad
Over the top needless gore I am assuming is what you have a dislike for?
Pretty much.
Understandable if so.
If its the comical "immortal character gets his arm cut off, blood comes gushing" its alright, if its prolonged shots of an impaled character its like... why?
So to help me understand that line... how do you feel about Hellsing Ultimate? š
Sometimes alright, sometimes too much. Good anime, tho
And mind you.. I am only referring "Ultimate" as it does differ in many areas than the original..
Its so much better, imho, but thats just me.
Alucard alone is a wonderfully created character.. and Saras steals the show more often than not.
It just gets pretty brutal, so it can turn off some viewers
iāll add it to my list of anime to watch
Also, if you have an issue with Nazi's dont watch it. Fair warning.
oh i donāt lol
š
watching ultimate rn
...im such a bad influence. cough enjoy!
nah u good
Btw, Aspect. What would you rate for your top 3 anime so far?
Top 5 if 3 is too restricting..
Oh, Lucky Star because its funny, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid because i've got fond memories of watching it a few times with a friend, FMA:B, One Punch Man, and Fire Force is my current list because it changes
Good list indeed! Really enjoyed Miss Kobayashi but havent seen the new season yet.
How I've been with Fire Force and Log Horizon, she still hasnt got to start the newest episodes for either so iv been trying my best not to spoil anything. š
good anime
Indeed!
i like the ost
Good ost, true
Just came out at a wierd time and i watched other things, so i need to continue it
Given the list you provided, im sure you will enjoy it š
Likely, seems to be a great mix of comedy and action which i do enjoy
Jujutsu Kaisen is similar, no?
i like the opening 2 song for dura
Sorta, yes, but at the same time its different..
They both have their own take on mixing the two for sure though
n the n naruto shippuden opening 6 prob my 2 fav ost
Ah, ofc cant group two anime in the exact same group, always have differences
I should continue the P5 anime, it was fun to laugh at
Anything Myth & Roid or Band-Maid and I love it. lol Not to say other OP/ED arent good but I love those bands.
Myth & Roid is great, did some openings for Overlord and killed it
Indeed!
i wish dmc got more episodes
twilight š¼
Oh fuck no
I mean.. "I politely refuse to acknowledge that as anything close to vampires or related material."
What was that weirdly good weirdly bad vampire mecha anime, gimme a minute
Vampire mecha?
Vampire pilot, vampire because he pilots mecha
Had the emblem (V) in his eye gifted from that chick
Idk, barely remember it
I havent seen that in years.. almost forgot about it
I remember one of the teammates gets bodied and they just continue on like "aww shucks we lost a friend but theres no time to cry"
how many seasons is hellsing ultimate ova
7 i think?
k thanks š
aight
10
Forgot there were that many.. might have to rewatch them sometime soon I guess.
Original series had 13 episodes. Fitting I suppose.
Anywho, I have rambled on long enough for tonight/this morning. Was fun chatting with ya both. Laters!
Seeya. I'm gonna start Jujutsu and then sleep myself.
anyone in the Southeast US, is your landline internet out? been out for about 20-30 minutes?
yea hellsing good on ep 4 /5 or so tho i just watched a few parts on yt sucks ultimate is only 1 season šŖ wished it had 3-5+ seasons
Its an awesome series, and I really like the direction they took everything.
Not to take away from the Orignal Hellsing, as its amazing in its own right
Alucard like i said is an awesome and well made character, but Seras is who really steals the show. She kinda is the "apprentice to become master" but the way they do it is so well done imo. Got to give the writers props for it.
Of course Anderson is the classic lovable hero/antihero.. the series does a good job at mixing the two. Cant recommend the series enough tbh.
kinda wished she had more action
good show tho in my top 10
u know n animeās similar too it @shy vine
wyd
eating chicken tenders n angus burgers hbu @shy vine
i havent touched anthem in a long time, anything new yet? like the Tower that is still incomplete last i checked?
Idk really, tried it for first time yesterday and today they announced that anthem next (new game, complete restructuring started in 2019) was killed by EA
ill have to login and see whats up, i didnt realize you were a new player to anthem, bad assumption on my part
hey, anyone know where i can download outriders demo?
tried on steam, only pre orders
idk nothing @dense parcel
prob gotta wait
yea probably its not 25th yet in US.
sad trombone
changed your wallet thickness,my final message.goodbye
damn I farted too loudly
tmi
Yeah there's always a thing about builds in games
they all have stuff that makes then really good
but then you gotta go through the challenges so you can get the gear
and usually it takes weeks to do so
well for me as I'm not a speedrunner
An example, Destiny 2
there's Lament, a really good sword exotic and basically shreds a lotta things
but you have to do the exotic quest
another example
The Division 2
I got all the HF gear
and even a chameleon exotic
but then I gotta farm to optimize stuff
and not to mention ridgeway's pride
and scorpio
and the other gear I gotta get to complete ridgeway's pride and other content in general
...targeted loot helps, though.
Like I said already have the HF pieces and chameleon
but I also have to get a proper bp
and then I gotta find the chest, bp, and scorpio itself for a build to shoot down rogue agents for the ridgeway's pride project
since from what I can tell my current build sucks at dealing with em
you have the peices but your rolls are likely bad
that too
so you farm out new pieces that are better
yeah the grind is kinda serious
but if I ever get enough materials
I think I can optimize all of it
yeah a lotta games I play nowadays are kinda grindy
Elsword
Destiny 2
The Division 2
Warframe
Path of Exile
those kinds of games
AKA the ones that incorporate a lot of values in their builds
and if there's not that much values
the objects you have to do are just as high as the other games
Elsword's character progression is grind in objectives, but the progression is quite simple in terms of stuff like equipment
Destiny 2 is another example, tedious quests, grand rewards
The Division 2 is a large assortment of grinding, just for trying to make a decent build
Warframe is grindy especially for mods, essential in builds
Path of Exile is a grind in terms of currency items, rolls, and even XP on some cases
and yeah
best description I got for grinding in my games
in the long term
The grind never ends
unless you know the games shut down
which is inevitable
All the games Iisted above:
Expectation: Fun and interesting adventures involving crazy builds
Reality: We All Lift Together plays
Basically all the expectations are fun
But all the reality is grind
I played Warframe, it wasnāt enjoyable
Question:I just killed 271 people in a video game about stealth
Is it considered as āStealthā?
russian stealth yes
Ah warframe... What fun times i used to have with it
Yup, games are getting grindy AF, on the other hand if they're not grindy enough people will eventually drop it. Grindy games mean more player base attachment in the eyes of the devs/pubs. An alternative to keep the player base engaged without all the grind is to release more content periodically to have players come back often to the game, but content creation is expensive so I don't know of many studios able/willing to do that.
Maybe TESO? That game has enough content to keep you busy for three or four lifetimes.
What would this TESO be?
The Elders Scroll Online
Ah ive heard of it
Yeah it's like thousands of hours of exploration, quests, dungeons, etc
People that play the game really appreciate the amount of content it has
So it's worth checking if you're into rpgs, but again it's not grindy so you don't get all the addictive loot
Also, it's one of the few games that actually gives you freedom and you can be as creative as you want with your avatar... eg you can equip a heavy armor on a mage and the game won't penalize you, so you can have fun your own way
Honestly i like grinding in a way. Gives me a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment yknow?
Especially in looter shooters which i love when i can say yes to the question "does this make me stronger" or "is this fun to use"
doesnt outriders launch in 20 minutes for the demo
GME is back baby
Okay so for anybody who plays arknights and division 2
What arknights operators are closest to division agents
hmm
I guess
Anyone play cold wae
Outriders anyone?
I would if I had it
Nvm seen that demo is free so I'm downloading rn on ps4š
N it's on gfn so I'll try it on my phone later
sorry for being a noob, but whatās gfn?
Geforce now
U can play steam , epic n other pc platforms on it on ur phone
Assuming u own em on said platform n it's ok gfn
oh normally i abbreviate it as gnow lol
Honestly I still feel Girls Frontline's lore is a bit closer to Division's with conspiracy and the collapse fluid which makes areas similar to the Dark Zone.
Arknights is a bit more of a segregated place with infected/non infected and while yes the Originum plague can be considered a pandemic its more of a social divide than anything.
That being said, ofc those Sankta folk like Executor and Exusiai are closest what with their race being the only ones legally allowed to own guns.
The BSW operators like Jessica and Liskarm however also fit lol
The rest really just use magic and crossbows.
Or melee weapons..... or chainsaws.
BSW?
BlackSteel
A PMC in Arknights that has a mutual contract with Rhodes Island that allows them to have some of their mercs as employees
In exchange for helping out BSW's infected employees
āPMCā no wonder Ubisoft is involved lol
Nah Arknights got the Rainbow Six collab
Tachanka is in it and by god
They did him SO GOOD
Im sorry I mean
LORD TACHANKA
you forgetting that R6S along with most Ubisoft games have PMCs?
Yeah fair enough lol
Im just saying rn its good to be a fan of both Girls Frontline and Arknights lol
GFL having its own collab with Division and coming soon is Arknights and R6S
Is Raid Shadow legends like Arknights
Personally never played it so I cant compare
Arknights is tower defense while Raid is a turn based rpg tho.
So Outriders will not be a games as service like Division?
fun game
i think services as in no battle passes n shit
Yeah like seasons and stuff
Considering that they had a collab sure
but I kinda consider arknights very close too
I mean all 3 games are statistical grind hecks
but I just feel Division is closer to AK in a way
and GF is on the same level
Yes and no?
Okay so I have an Unstoppable Force BP and Obliterate chest with my Chameleon and HF 4p set
Sounds unstoppable
I'd switch your chest talent for Intimidate and your bag for Adrenaline Rush
wow
Did You master the backfire?
i'm just the backfire guy
Can someone explain to me why Warzone takes 100Gb for just the battle royale?
large map, bad texture compression, TERRIBLE sound compression
I spent the first 10 hours getting rekt because i canāt control the recoil,only to realized that the guns barely has recoils and itās just me playing too much pubg
cool watch dogs legions online dropping on the 9th along with destiny 2 getting cross play beta in s14 n official in s15
should i stick with ridgeway n wicked on backfire or would intimidate n ad rush be better
n outriders fun ngl even preordered it this morning
cuz itās more themjust a br game it has other modes tons of guns n content
plus the graphics n other stuff = big file
he's asking why solely warzone takes 100gigs. MW & Warzone takes ~250gigs, while Warzone (and only warzone, no other modes) takes 100gigs
oh aight
1 terabyte is getting small quickly
definitely
better clean up all them stimulation videos, wink wink. That will make some room
Which studio made Breakpoint?
Because Ubi just announced to continue updating it for atleast 1 year
And I thought they already pulled the plug?
no, they had a crossover event with Siege like a week ago
You are cleared for Titanfall, pilot.
It's amazing. The campaign length is short but gripping and you have multiplayer too.
Highly recommend.
Also, Effect and Cause is one the best missions in FPS in recent years. Really a gem to play.
Plus.. big mechs.. large weapons.. whats not to like? š
@nimble cedar strikers is good
@amber horizon is kasumi playable?
neither kasumi or akechi are playable, seems to disregard endgame stuff from P5
except ||lavenza|| for semi obvious reasons if you've finished base P5
"obvious reasons" hahaha
because y'know, the ||velvet room is unoccupied because of yaldaboi||
But the combat is fluid asf, each of the thieves has their own style & "thing"
||yaldaboi is the evil one, satanael is jokers ultimate persona||
and was that the last boss?
ye
||satanael VS yaldaboth, satanael shoots yalda||
oh right!!!
i forgot he had a gun i think dual wield too
nvm it was a swordgun
still badass ngl
i heard the settings is 2 yrs after?
Joker still has the wildcard so he can take other personas for combat, Ryuji can charge his swings for more damage, Ann can imbue her whip with fire, Yusuke has a timed physical (?) deflect, Morgana can turn into a car, Makoto can imbue some of her strikes with nuclear (and ride johanna) and Haru can "continue" some of her attacks for more damage
6months
Showtime is cool too, you charge the showtime meter to do a cutscene attack for massive damage (each character has their own showtime bar & attack, its pretty cool)
oh and the new character has yoyos that you can "catch" to do more damage (buttonmashing is bad with her)
yoyo?
ya
whaat, thats cool
*dual yoyos, actually
lmfao why im not surprised about morgana
and she is cute so thats a plus
"sir we cant figure out more moves for morgana, what do?"
"have him turn into a car."
and i knew makoto hs been a nuclear user
"but-"
"do it"
lol he is so useful in story though
base joker has curse, ryuji has lightning, ann has fire, morgana has wind, makoto has nuclear, haru has psio, new character has bless
all have melee & gun
imagine walking metaverse
"aww, fuck."
yeah i remember about all characters using guns, p3 too lol
p3 characters use evokers, specific difference
shoots in the head persona coming out lol
evokers- summon a persona (provided you dont die from the first time getting shot with it)
phantom theives guns- airsoft guns brought into the metaverse become real b/c perception lmao
p4 had eyeglasses
and cards!
ill check my p5 base save later, if i miss something lol
the glasses were to see in the midnight channel
Teddie
it would be extremely funny if on March 16th, 2021, @ 3:00 pm EST we withdrew all of our money from the Banks and sold as many stocks as possible and stopped buying things for the rest of the day
if I could never see or hear about stocks again, thatād be just amazing
š
Im curious on what games people would recommend for me to keel my sanity away from warframe
"It will Keel!" š
Depends on what type of genre your looking for, got any specifics in mind?
Lets start with looter shooters since i love playing those types of games
Hmm, well obvious choice that most will say would be Destiny, but beyond the obvious, I would say check out Borderlands, Remnant From the Ashes... and... hmm
I also wonder if the game in question is good for people like me who play games like apes would enjoy
Ive tried destiny before, i enjoyed it but after coming back and seeing all my gear be invalidated i just thought "yeah id rather not"
Yeah its why I never got back into it, among its other changes.
At one time there were a decent amount to choose from but now Looter Shooters (enjoyable ones) are dwindling.
Borderlands 3 i own but i am curious after beating main game what could i do that could keep me goin til the end of time
After trying Outriders, keep that one on your radar though. Granted I think its not due until late this year. As for available ones you could also give Risk of Rain 2 a try. Its pretty fun.
Yeah its an odd one but its pretty fun if you can find a few people to play it with
I went in hesitant about it, because its quite a change from the first one, but its surprisingly addictive and good fun if your bored.
I can look into it
Others might have more to recommend but thats all that comes to mind from me, at the moment.
Like i said, its hard to find good loot shooters outside the top 3. Market is lacking for more in this genre for sure.
Hm ive also heard about elder scrolls online here at one point and im curious on that
If your a fan of the Elder series its good fun. I havent played it in a while though so not sure what state its currently in compared to mid-last year.
Plus no sub is always nice when you want an MMORPG to come back to from time to time
How much does it cost
For PVE play though, i cant comment on the PVP side of the house as I never played it for that.
The standard its $20 on steam
At this point im just lookin for long lasting games me and my friends can have some good times with
Oh that sounds nice
It does offer a "Plus" subscription if you ever want that as an option too, as with most MMO's I guess.
Makes sense
Expansions are more than the base game, Blackwood being the most espensive at $40
Blackwood, you just reminded me of Warface, what a terrible game
Im am curious, from what ive heard couldn't teso be one of those games where when you know what you're doing it can be "yeah do whatever you literally could want to do"
Or i might be thinking of something else
Back when I played it, that was true in terms of "class" builds as sure there are "meta" builds but it was more fun for me to just play it how I wanted as it (like most ES games) is pretty lenient on players choice in that regard.
Yeah id be happy if i can play however i like and it can work well for what i want to do
Because again i play games like a monke
Like also with some abilities (Dark Brotherhood) if you know where to go you can snag it right out the gate with a new toon. Like i do because god I loved using the dagger
Instant kill back stab ability is awesome to use
The learning curve wasnt bad at all to me, and i fall into that category š
I should look into that as well then
At its core, its Elder Scrolls
If you decide on it, i would look up mods (yes they are allowed) and find some QoL stuff like map markers and a few inventory tweaks
Modding is a thing? I already know what kind of cursed things i would put in
I will say its just UI and QoL mods for the most part. Cant be putting nude mods or some such stuff lol
Of course but even then ive seen really memey stuff with ui mods in other games
If its only shown on your end, its usually allowed, within reason of course.
Again that was last year I played, but I think its pretty much the same policy
Fair enough
Btw, are you just looking for games on the PC? Or consoles too?
OH totally forgot until now, there is also a looter-slasher GodFall you can look into
Skyrim-esc
Because of its one thing i love about warframe its the power fantasy aspect
Funny you say that since i never played skyrim
Or any es game for that matter lol
...oh
lol well then š uhh
How to describe ES combat...
Its purposely slow-ish to give weight of the weapons for one.. and even in ESO (being an mmo and all) it still has that same feel to a degree.
Its not terrible, but there is a difference of swinging a two handed axe compared to a shortsword/dagger
Its odd to actually think how its combat works because its not like other games lol
Iv played the series since back in the 90's so I never thought about it tbh
Oh i think i understand it now
One thing I can say, its not just stand near enemy and both of you just "fling" your weapons back and forth
as with most MMO's
Moving dodging, using block and roles, etc.. play a bigger role than some others in the genre
I think its F2P so never hurts to just give it a try before you buy
Will do exactly that if it is
Now I just want to tell you, throughout the entirety of babies being in the womb, they are 100% hydrated inside and out, this is SCIENTIFICALLY why babies cry when they are born as you make them dehydrated
So make sure you get hydrated ya H2O, and Bros
can u guys tell me which game launcher is trash?

E: Origins followed by F: Epic
do you think ISAC voice is a voice actor or TTS?
Brandon Keener, same man that voiced Garrus in Mass Effect among other popular roles.
Also why they named Aaron Keener, was tribute to him also
ah, I love ISAC and Manny's voice
oh that's nice, seems the guys gets the loves they deserve š
He's a really cool dude from what iv read online
Amazing how bad my memory is most the time but that I remember even when im half asleep š Hate how my brain works
did you know that Larae Barrettās actor appears as a Division agent in the Asher series
Didnt know that, interesting
Ironic
the actress who voices Faye Lau is on a show called The Rookie
she also won the third season of Canadian Idol
Should've been the 4th season
Woah,really?
yeah just watch the show
whats the difference between an ace and a 1v5 clutch?
an ace is any kind of five man kill
a 1v5 clutch is also an ace
its clutch because you're all alone
so ace is 5 kill when youre not alone
no an ace is any kind of five kill
(also i presume weāre talking about Rainbow Six Siege? or CSGO or what)
idk how many players there are to a team in CSGO, or Valorant, or any other such game
point is, a clutch is when you pull back in a losing situation, an ace is when you wipe the enemy team singlehandedly, and they are not mutually exclusive
You can have a clutch that isnt an ace, and an ace that isnt a clutch
Wha-
Say everyone but 1 person on your team dies, but they manage to take out 2 of the enemy team, thats still a clutch, but not an ace
or if your team all stays alive, but only one person gets the entire enemy team, that's an ace but not a clutch
cleaners in concept art and trailers have M2 flamethrowers but none in either game do, very sad
š®
If someone was the last person on the team alive and somehow kills everyone on the enemy team its called a clutch ace.
watching ichigo vs renji @shy vine š¼
Thought about rewatching the series myself. May just have to since my current list of anime is quite small atm.
Which mission has enemy drones /cars, mini tanks
Someone's answered you in another thread, stop posting it over and over.
Oh hey there Rivsie,where have you been?
Lost i/net for a week, nearly ate my own hand in boredom. You?
There was work being done on the power lines, that screwed up the type of connection I have somehow.
Atleast your computer didnāt just randomly uninstalled your WiFi driver
Took me 2 days fixing it by constantly restarting my laptop,and living on 4g connection
Anyway glad to see you again
Thanks Thanh.
black tusk ones
k prefer vodka but gin looks good
Im from Tennessee so I love my whiskey but its a Gin sort of night this time. š Vodka ain't bad either though as its my next go usually.
have a good night š¼
I usually do. Just cant figure out which game I want to get lost in.
iām just chillin watching bleach
Enjoying it so far?
cp 2077 š¼
yea as iām rewatching it
Ah.. that requires Stadia and I cant stand the controller lag lol
I missed that sweet $25 sale the other day for PC š
play on pc or use a usb c controller
I do, but it still has a slight delay, im sensitive to that crap š
u play legions?
Legions?
ah iām used too it
i donāt mind delay or lag or fps drop which is normal in cloud streaming
watch dogs legions
Oh, no dont have that. Too expensive still
damn
Ill eventually get it on sale for the Ultimate/Gold for $30 or something š
i got the gold edition for $50 a few weeks ago
Rarely pay full price for a game unless its a specific bundle or such
ah makes sense
iām like that when money is a issue otherwise i donāt mind spending 50-60
I been trying another go at a new hardcore character in Div 2, but the random crashing (even with all my troubleshooting) makes it way too stressful on losing my toon lol
Really dont want to chance losing them a second time to a crash
u could make a build
They are only level 10 so far
