[arctic talon]

I think they literally just didn’t find it

[opaque coyote]

Like America and Japan are polar opposites in that regard which is funny

[winter vessel]

it just kept getting weirder after this boss fight, but damn the song that was playing shredded

[crystal forum]

my child eyes found it

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[crystal forum]

also i could beat metal slug 3 without dying on mobile

[opaque coyote]

The checkers probably didn't get far enough tbh

[crystal forum]

i had a lot of free time on the bus

[opaque coyote]

Or just didn't check the sprite work deeplt

They just looked at like 5 minutes of gameplay

"Yeah it passes"

[winter vessel]

I always liked choosing Tarma as my Character

[arctic talon]

I think meta slug 5 is one of my favorite games

Out of all of them

I really like the sliding mechanic

[opaque coyote]

Metal Slug

More like

Metal Gear

[crystal forum]

i always chose fio because nerdy girl

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/mgs-mgs3-mgs-delta-δ-big-boss-gif-6308126558548825679

[opaque coyote]

If I were to play a metal Slug game

[winter vessel]

girl pulls out a sandwich to eat whenever mission complete

[crystal forum]

i wish there was a single way for me to play it

[opaque coyote]

What should I start with

[arctic talon]

Uh

2 or X

metal slug 1 has not aged well imo

Metal slug 2 onwards is all good

Metal slug 5 prolly has the jankest mechanical differences because they added sliding

[winter vessel]

I liked 6 because of the addition of Clarke and Ralph

[crystal forum]

you can maybe get 1, 2 and 3 on mobile but it might also be deprecated

[arctic talon]

There’s also like

Other ways to get it

[opaque coyote]

Metal Slug 2 got it

[crystal forum]

2 and X are literally the same

[storm jungle]

do you remember how in Metal Slug 5 you fight a literal c'tan god-beast lol

this thing used to scare me

[crystal forum]

again i wish i could play it

just port your fucking game to PC mister SNK

[storm jungle]

they have

[arctic talon]

Metal slug 5 had so much cut lol

[storm jungle]

some of them are on Steam arent they?

[crystal forum]

only like 1 to 3 and 10

[arctic talon]

I do also like how uh

[winter vessel]

yeah, but the theme song that played goes hardhttps://youtu.be/tbfQo2wp5y4?si=-W7ahmkFaPsTYNml

[storm jungle]

oh

[arctic talon]

The army in metal slug 5

[storm jungle]

Fuck yeah

[arctic talon]

Goes from normal looking PMC

To fucking crazed death cult

[storm jungle]

I love it tbh

[arctic talon]

Worshipping a fucking god lol

[storm jungle]

Astartes aint got shit on the Metal Slug team

[arctic talon]

I wish we got the stone turtle boss

[storm jungle]

same

[winter vessel]

5 was like "who tf am i fighting now?" i dunno, just keep killing

[arctic talon]

Okay the explosions in metal slug being hand drawn

Is like

Absolutely deranged

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

oh hey they rebooted metal slug attack

i might play it

i loved defence as a kid

[storm jungle]

the pixelwork in these games are fucking insane

[arctic talon]

Isn’t that the mobile gacha game

[storm jungle]

i watched a video breakdown of it

[crystal forum]

it is

[arctic talon]

Yeah

[storm jungle]

literally every machine part is moving

[crystal forum]

but i liked it

[arctic talon]

https://tenor.com/view/explocion-tanque-metal-slug-gif-23938893

[crystal forum]

and believe it or not defence wasnt bad

[storm jungle]

[crystal forum]

it had good progression

[arctic talon]

I don’t doubt it wasn’t bad

Tbh

[crystal forum]

attack is just more gacha

[arctic talon]

Oh also the zombies and mummies in metal slug 4 being created by a terrorist organization is funny

Lol

Like

Do you think SNK got high off their asses before deciding what if the terrorists

[winter vessel]

oh man doing the zombies levels used to creep me out as a kid

[arctic talon]

Used zombies and shit

And like had a giant robot

That looks like a baby

that infects people

[arctic talon]

They’re super cool tbh

I also like how if you get turned into a zombie you literally can’t die to bullets lol

[winter vessel]

funniest thing out of 5? the slug mobile

[arctic talon]

It’s so fucking stupid

I love it

[winter vessel]

they thought "what if we have them drive a Fiat 500...with a gun attached to it?"

[crystal forum]

what did you guys play it on

[storm jungle]

I played it on my PS3

i really am glad for it, so many memories

[crystal forum]

shit i should just buy a ps3 disc of it

[winter vessel]

PSP, I had all of 1-6 on a small memory chip

and then I had double X on my xbox console to download

[arctic talon]

Arcade and Wii

[winter vessel]

I still can't believe that in Metal Slug Attack it has a unit where its just Morden turned into a girl

[arctic talon]

Metal slug 1 honestly tonally feels very different

From the games after it

[storm jungle]

I remember looking up some MS stuff

and theres just... anime weeb girls???

the fuck

[arctic talon]

The power of gacha

Keeping SNK alive

[queen laurel]

Oh you discovered some of the modern day stuff

Yeah they resorted to that

[storm jungle]

fucking hell its so cringe

[queen laurel]

Yeah it is yeah it is

[crystal forum]

i go into every arcade i come accross to see if a metal slug game is present and i am always disappointed

[fallen plaza]

I wonder if there is any good metal slug model kits

I might get em

[crystal forum]

i remember seeing them as a kid

[arctic talon]

Don’t think so?

Maybe for the titular metal slug lol

[crystal forum]

100% i've seen some fan made ones at least

[arctic talon]

But I doubt for anything else

[storm jungle]

the Rebel Army has like

so much imperial guard-esque vehicles

lol

[arctic talon]

Def 3d prints though

[fallen plaza]

There was a third party transformer metal slug

It looked pretty good actually

[crystal forum]

metal slug models are perfect for printing

so chunky

i have 2 favorites

[arctic talon]

Boat

[winter vessel]

this one always makes me laugh

[fallen plaza]

Look at this beauty

[crystal forum]

fuck

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/metalslug/images/4/4a/Ironiso.gif/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/150?cb=20210825114028

iron iso

i love this thing

[arctic talon]

Man

It actually looks somewhat practical

[crystal forum]

the lore of this thing is it's like too heavy to move

lol

[arctic talon]

My favorite metal slug

[fallen plaza]

Its actually pretty sizable series

The model kits

[arctic talon]

Is the walker

[queen laurel]

It is as far as third party transformers pretty good

[arctic talon]

With a mini gun

[crystal forum]

god or

that fucking thing

[crystal forum]

what's the name of the tank with the dozer blade

that shoots rockets

god i fucking love that thing

[queen laurel]

Wolf is every single slug vehicle that we can use literally just like you see that shark attached two miny guns on it

[crystal forum]

i require link

[arctic talon]

Melty honey ?

[crystal forum]

yes

[fallen plaza]

An amazon link?

[crystal forum]

metal slug tanks look so fucking cool

[crystal forum]

they activate the child inside me

even more than 40k tanks

[fallen plaza]

These are fun

[arctic talon]

They’re what a kid finds cool

And they go hard

[winter vessel]

anyone remember Tani Oh? dual minigun sentries with a large twin barreled cannon head in the middle, plus a mine launcher.

[crystal forum]

metal slug defence made me love these guys

the bolt cycling animation is such a tiny gem of its own

[arctic talon]

My favorite boss

[crystal forum]

it's so meaty

[arctic talon]

Ngl

Trying to keep the rebels alive on the alien ship

Is super fun

[crystal forum]

my favorite boss is uuuuh

[arctic talon]

Ngl

Same with in metal slug 6

In the like

Other alien thingy

[winter vessel]

I always liked it whenever we teamed up with the Rebel Army

[fallen plaza]

Its always annoys me when some random japanese anime has like the coolest looking vehicle ever in the background and there like no information of it

Case and point the evangelion series

Lots of cool fucking vehicles in the background

[crystal forum]

ALLEN O NEIL

the biggest chad

i fucking love him

[winter vessel]

as a kid i used to hate getting laughed at by him, lol

[crystal forum]

god and then he's on your side at the end of 3

[gray umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/metal-slug-game-tank-gif-14844279

[crystal forum]

teaming up with the rebels on the mars mission is so awesome

and the independence day reference

with the plane guy

[winter vessel]

I watched Ind. day as a kid, so when I first got to that level, i was like "Ahhh i see what you did there"

[arctic talon]

I like the bait and switch with metal slug 3 ngl

Where you end up finishing the game in space lol

[crystal forum]

such a difficult mission though

[winter vessel]

I believe that was the longest mission in the entire series

[crystal forum]

took me a lot of tries to do it no deaths

[queen laurel]

On your honest opinion if i were to try the slug series at what point of the game should i just stop because it just becomes garbage

[arctic talon]

Literally all of the mainline games are good

[crystal forum]

and christ imagine doing that as a kid with pocket money at an arcade

[arctic talon]

4 and 5 are both kind of jank

But imo every single one of the games is gold

[winter vessel]

'Mother! I NEED YOUR COIN PURSE!"

[arctic talon]

4 experimented with the score system

And 5 experimented with a lot

But like all the games are good

[crystal forum]

i love how intentionally hard metal slug games were to make more money

[winter vessel]

5 was balls to the walls nuts on the story.

[crystal forum]

it's such a funny difficulty curve

[arctic talon]

Metal slug 6

[crystal forum]

you dont see that anymore

[arctic talon]

Is prolly the most batshit insanely difficult

Imo

It’s also the last arcade game

But I think the final mission is straight up unreasonable at times lol

[winter vessel]

yeah. Invader king is hard

[crystal forum]

my goal one day is to finish 3 in an arcade without dying

i NEED to find one

[queen laurel]

Aight thanks

[arctic talon]

3 and 6 are prolly the 2 hardest

Easiest metal slug is uh

Prolly 2?

Maybe 1

[crystal forum]

3 is easy for the first levels

[arctic talon]

3 ramps up

Super fast

[crystal forum]

but it ramps up so quickly

[queen laurel]

Hopefully when i have the chance to get them i can maybe do them

[crystal forum]

the mars level is batshit

the rocket part alone

[arctic talon]

Metal slug X was made as a harder version of 2

The rocket part is

[crystal forum]

i managed to finish it once without damage

but holy shit

[arctic talon]

I do like the background stuff though

It’s very cool

[winter vessel]

I would celebrate the day SNK makes an anime or at least an OVA for Metal Slug

[crystal forum]

yeah all the rebels helping you

then at the end you're running to escape

even allen's there lol

[crystal forum]

they're working on a turn based game rn

more gacha shit

have you seen the trash they add to the metal slug character list

doesnt even fit with the setting

[winter vessel]

at the end of 3 you had to fight Rootmars, this dude is DISGUSTANG

[arctic talon]

Metal slug 4 has 2 new characters in it that never show up again

[arctic talon]

Root mars is brutal

You literally need the tank

Or he’s impossible without dying

[crystal forum]

no wolf let me show you

[arctic talon]

Is there a way to do it without the tank?????

[winter vessel]

and then you had your other ally flying in a saucer shooting one beam every 30 secs

[arctic talon]

I always just used the I frames of it

[crystal forum]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/metalslug/images/9/95/Unit_illust_450.png/revision/latest?cb=20230616130313

this is a metal slug charactwr now

[arctic talon]

That’s not that weird

[storm jungle]

it sucks

[arctic talon]

It’s not good

[storm jungle]

stop putting WEEB GIRLS IN MY METAL SLUG

[arctic talon]

But I don’t think it’s that weird

[winter vessel]

I'm indifferent to it

[crystal forum]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gameideas/images/e/e3/Cyborg-Dragunov_Artwork.png/revision/latest?cb=20171003023108

[arctic talon]

Okay

I take it back

[rocky gale]

Not to derail the Metal Slug, but it turns out GRRM posted and then deleted a blogpost complaining about the latest season of HotD

[crystal forum]

it doesnt fit with the setting

[fallen plaza]

Wtf if this

[arctic talon]

Lol

[fallen plaza]

That is awful

[crystal forum]

they just add random tiddy girls

like fucking why

[winter vessel]

they know the target audience

[fallen plaza]

Metal slug literally already has beautiful ass girls

[outer wave]

Okay hot take, but I kinda like that design but its weird for a Metal Slug game

[arctic talon]

Did they ever explain like

Why metal slug 4 had 2 did characters

[crystal forum]

i dont care about the design it's the fact that it has no reason to be in metal slug

[arctic talon]

Replacing Eri and Tarma

Or was it just

The artists made them might as well use the assets

[crystal forum]

BUT

the portraits of actual characters

are

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/metalslug/images/b/be/Unit_illust_506.png/revision/latest?cb=20170413081631

😩

[fallen plaza]

All those unpainted models finally made you straight

[winter vessel]

I used to get unreasonably mad whenever she shows up in a level, i'm like "Girl! how do you keep ending up in these situations!?"

[arctic talon]

I do like how Trevor and Nadia have different melee animations in 4

Trevor having a knife in his boot

And Nadia tazing people

[crystal forum]

metal slug was my first time. just saying

[arctic talon]

She’s silly

[outer wave]

Silly lil character

[arctic talon]

Also I like how Eri and Fio have axes lol

Instead of a fucking pocket knife

[crystal forum]

this portrait from metal slug defenxe

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/metalslug/images/8/80/MSD_-_Fio_Germi.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width/360?cb=20140822185455

[arctic talon]

They have a whole ass hatchet

[crystal forum]

it got me

[arctic talon]

Is that an Ak

[winter vessel]

my favorite is how you have a literal boxing glove in your back pack if you crouch melee

[crystal forum]

yes

i love the portraits from the mobile games

[fallen plaza]

If we are talking girls i found pretty back when i was a kid

Haruhi from ouran highschool hostclub

I still love the show btw

[winter vessel]

the reverse trap?

[fallen plaza]

One of my all time faves

[queen laurel]

Ah yes the metal slug character that is an ai that controls a giant tank that can bulldoze through an entire city

[fallen plaza]

Mmh

[dusk patrol]

Why are we posting anime jailbait in the chat guys?

[fallen plaza]

Not me

[gray umbra]

Its the natural progression

[dusk patrol]

And yes I’m sure “she’s actually like 40 guys she just looks like she’s 16!”

[winter vessel]

one of the biggest things I like about the series( besides delivering an onslaught on my enemies), is the countless designs of vehicles and their sprites in the game.

[arctic talon]

I want a new metal slug side scroller

I need a metal slug 8

[paper haven]

Ah, Metal slug

Good times

[crystal forum]

you're only legally allowed to be into anime characters with wrinkles or something

[dusk patrol]

True tbh

Anything else makes you a pdf file

[queen laurel]

As long as the anime character is a legal adult which is already a very very hard thing to achieve for some f****** reason

[dusk patrol]

[fallen plaza]

Revy is a top favorite

[crystal forum]

sometimes it's hard to tell if they're even a girl

[dusk patrol]

They know how to make them look like grown women

[crystal forum]

damn you japanese

[dusk patrol]

It’s intentional

[arctic talon]

Idk my favorite chainsaw man woman is an adult

[gray umbra]

Bazongas

[rocky gale]

Lets fucking goooooooooooo

[queen laurel]

And for my next magic trick i will make you question your grasp on reality

[fallen plaza]

[crystal forum]

the more confused i am the more it turns me on

[arctic talon]

3 on 3 plus sokka

[winter vessel]

I would overthink on how to say sokka's name as a kid, so i called him Sock

[fallen plaza]

The fucking astolfo memes should die already

[queen laurel]

Just think of it as a f****** femboy and your set

Very f****** easy to do

[fallen plaza]

Femboys are for sissies and r@tards

[arctic talon]

The War Devils most loved children being the gun devil and tank devil make sense lol

[outer wave]

Too bad Im one of those

[crystal forum]

[fallen plaza]

Ok r@tard

[outer wave]

LETS GOO YOU GOT IT RIGHT!

[winter vessel]

anyone here think Gate: JSDF exaggerated the power of Japan's self defense force?

[crystal forum]

bodygoals

[fallen plaza]

Its also shit

[outer wave]

Probably

[queen laurel]

Probably much but i don't expect a dragon to withstand artillery and rpgs

[fallen plaza]

Femboys when you slightly imply they are trans

🤬

[crystal forum]

dont get me started on japanese military trivia because it has a lot of cool shit

[winter vessel]

[crystal forum]

all their stuff is adapted to their home environment which makes it hyper good at its task

so based

[crystal forum]

not all of them are

but some are

[arctic talon]

Denji is 18 and is a single father, truly one of the moments of all time

[fallen plaza]

Being young and having a family in japan is a miracle in its own right

[crystal forum]

the type 10 has an active suspension which is so fucking cool

[queen laurel]

Bro how much does life plan on molesting him

[crystal forum]

made for mountainous regions

[queen laurel]

he's been going through it

Like i thought his adventures are already over

[arctic talon]

To be fair she’s adopted

He chose to take care of her

[queen laurel]

Yeah but you know after the war with makima losing his friends

One by one

[arctic talon]

Suffering builds character

[queen laurel]

I don't think he's on the right mental state anytime

[arctic talon]

Suffering builds character

[arctic talon]

He isn’t

Lol

[queen laurel]

Do not do a gav Thorpe

[crisp heath]

is the doublebarrle standard iisue

[arctic talon]

He literally has a side hustle of selling remade halfburned cigarettes to homeless people

[crystal forum]

the only not based thing about the type 10 is the autoloader 🤮

[crystal forum]

no

[arctic talon]

The one in Darktide? Probably not

[crystal forum]

not even the arbites use double barrels

and they're the shotgun guys

[arctic talon]

It’s for cultists

And shit lol

[queen laurel]

The ones in dark tide?

Nah it's basically garbage weapons that a hive ganger would use

[arctic talon]

And civilian use

[queen laurel]

Or a very poor

Guy

[arctic talon]

Necromunda lookin ass

[queen laurel]

The most standard issue weapon the imperium employees for its soldiers are las guns

[rose thorn]

Hey is son with actually good

Is sin city*

[queen laurel]

Son what

[rose thorn]

Not what ever I typed

[winter vessel]

took me a sec

[fallen plaza]

Son with

[crystal forum]

the most non standard weapon that the vet has access to imo is the power sword just because it's like the only "rare" one apart from the plasma gun

[rose thorn]

[arctic talon]

Denji looks dead inside constantly in part 2 lol

[winter vessel]

Son with is right up there with Splat tim

[rose thorn]

I MEANT SIN CITY I WASNT LOOKING WHILE I TYPE

[queen laurel]

You mean the comic

[rocky gale]

Can you not touch type?

[crystal forum]

the movie/graphic novel?

[rose thorn]

Yeah

The graphic

[crystal forum]

the movie is good too

[queen laurel]

Bro needs something good in his life

[rose thorn]

I’m on my phone at the comic book store and Ike any of these things

[rocky gale]

Ohh

Okay

[crystal forum]

it has frodo the hobbit as a silent murderer

[arctic talon]

Fujimoto says yes, but actually no

[winter vessel]

that fuckin face

[queen laurel]

Me watching shounen authors draw the most miserable life characters to ever exist in media

[arctic talon]

Also him not even being listed as a main character for a while

Is hilarious

[crystal forum]

i love the scene when he jumps out of a window

i watched this movie too many times

[arctic talon]

Asa is great though, she’s such a girlfailure/femcel

She’s miserable because of her own actions

[winter vessel]

A movie I recently rewatched was Dredd (2012)

[fallen plaza]

Dredd is so fucking good

[crystal forum]

one of the best comic book inspired movies ever made

and the tragic part is it bombed in the box office

[hallow saddle]

I rewatched that recently too

[winter vessel]

the helmet. STAYS. FUCKIN. ON.

Karl urban understood

[hallow saddle]

I love that it's just basically a normal day in Dredd's career

[crystal forum]

there could have been a sequel if it didn't fail so hard

which is sad

[hallow saddle]

No global stakes or anything, it's just business as usual

[winter vessel]

for the psychic, it was the most important day of her life. Dredd? it was just Tuesday

[crystal forum]

the literal progression of them going up the tower is the kind of visual shit you dont see often

like if i were to explain to somebody what makes a good action movie i'd use it as an wxample

[rose thorn]

I got the graphic novel

I am a sucker for murder mysteries

[winter vessel]

I swear it felt like i was on a high also whenever it showed the effects of the drug in that film

[crystal forum]

and when they jump out of the tower on the skate part is the only time they get to relax a bit since they're out of the figurative hell

[rose thorn]

And if the movie is good the original comic gotta be good

[crystal forum]

i have a treat for you

[rocky gale]

If I remember right it was Gavin from the Slow Mo guys who filmed all the drug scenes

[crystal forum]

https://youtu.be/skH-jw0llKY?si=IMk4F4hwwtoERONT

[rose thorn]

I BOUGHT THR WRONH ONE

GOD DAMN IT

[crystal forum]

took me a while to find it

but there's the song

[rose thorn]

I BOUGHT A DAME TO KILL

[crystal forum]

ha you bought the shitty sequel

[rose thorn]

NOOOOOOOO

HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO TELL

[winter vessel]

ah yesss...this has all the vibes necessary to get the urge to drive late at night in the city

[crystal forum]

the story of the first is literally 1:1 of the movie so just watch it instead

[rose thorn]

Okay thank you

[crystal forum]

like they even recreate some of the comic scenes too lol

[hallow saddle]

i got the matrix comics recently

cause they did a 20th anniversary release

very pog

and also Hard Boiled

and geoff darrow who illustrated hard boiled did the comic storyboards for the matrix as well (i think)

and also i got frank miller's Ronin

[crystal forum]

hard boiled comes from a comic??

[hallow saddle]

yeah i guess

although its not the same as the john woo film if thats what u were thinking

although obviously the matrix draws a lot from the Woo as well

[crystal forum]

oh

unrelated but if any of you stumble upon the snowpiercer comic i recommend it

i dont know if the english translation is good though

the first one specifically

the second and third are ok

[green loom]

Okay SM2's ending was kinda cool

[celest dome]

People already finished it

[rose thorn]

When I get home imma watch the sin city movie and then read a dame to kill

[arctic talon]

Some content creators got earlier access

[spring cairn]

6 hours campaign

[dusk patrol]

STOP TALKING ABOUT IT

[spring cairn]

don't spoil yourself if u wanna play it

it's p short

[dusk patrol]

Yeah

Gonna beat that shit tonight or whatever

[crystal forum]

i thought it came out the 9th

i'll play a stream in the background tonight so i can get the twitch drops

also is it just me or is early access for streamers kinda counter intuitive since now less people will want to play the game for the story

[opaque coyote]

Gonna talk about something completely unrelated

So basically

Spiderman

Fun fact, all the things about the symbiote feeding on emotions or being aggressive and such wasn't in the original arc

Basically Peter just found it weird

What happened to the symbiote was that it basically took him on a joyride while asleep

Making him feel tired

Because y'know he wasn't getting physical rest.

And then he decided to remove the suit

[dusk patrol]

Early release

[opaque coyote]

Yeah that's it

Kind of an asshole thing to do Peter

[dusk patrol]

Laati that’s it, I’m putting you on a strict no random rambling diet

[opaque coyote]

Later adaptations and retcons make it so that the Symbiote sort of takes the host's emotions. The good and the bad. And makes Peter aggressive because he's always holding back. The Symbiote is essentially just letting him lose

[opaque coyote]

No I NEED THE RAMBLING

[crystal forum]

i have early release too but it says 9th

[opaque coyote]

I NEED 10 CCs OF RAMBLING IN KE

STAT

[crystal forum]

then again the contract specifically says might not apply in canada so i guess fuck me

[opaque coyote]

I AM LIKE THE EMPEROR IF HE ONLY GOT 9999 PSYKER SOULS INSTEAD OF 10000

[dusk patrol]

It should let you play sometime later tonight

[opaque coyote]

They released it early?

Is it for like preorders only or

[crystal forum]

a week early for pre purchasers

[opaque coyote]

Yeah makes sense

I don't preorder games

Because like

I once preordered fo4

I got disappointed

Never preordered again

[crystal forum]

i want every skin in the game

[storm jungle]

check steam

it shows the time limit

23h last time i looked

you fucking SELLOUT PIECE OF SHI-

https://tenor.com/view/cat-fly-fly-cat-gif-23967129

[dire apex]

It’s early release for gold preorders and above

[spring cairn]

how many cyberpunks will it take for ppl to stop pre-ordering

[storm jungle]

never

[celest dome]

I preorder games if I'm ok with them releasing rough anyway.
Like I bloody knew that Darktide would release as it did.
Still preordered

[crystal forum]

i literally talked about buying the 400$ version

and you let that slide

[spring cairn]

100 dollar less than that one skin in LoL

[storm jungle]

okay but im an oppoturnist attacker

[celest dome]

How do you think they've explained to the animator what they could do for the idle animations ?

[storm jungle]

honestly beats me lmao

[celest dome]

Cause I'm fairly certain it's the animator that did that, then showed it to the bosses and not the other way around, to much gold for it to not be the case

[storm jungle]

if i had a mocap suit and was told to do idle animations id do shit like that too ngl

[celest dome]

I'd probably start messing with my rifle, then end up making it fall

[crystal forum]

i dont know what's more impressive, hand animating that or doing mocap of scratching your ass

[storm jungle]

ikr

[rocky gale]

Got a lot of respect to the Mocap actors for BG3, doing "those" scenes while wearing those suits and not laughing their asses off the entire time

[crystal forum]

and yet chris pratt is mario

god damnit

[storm jungle]

I think its a case of like

"we've done this so much its not even sexy anymore"

[fallen plaza]

Its definitely mocap

[storm jungle]

its kinda the same with porn real life, you got so many people watching it then it becomes very "meh"

[fallen plaza]

L4d did mocap with the horde infected

[fallen plaza]

Im glad theres no footage of the mocap actors unedited

That would just be embarrassing

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

still some of the best zombie animations in the last decade yeah

i love how they just act "tired" and exhausted

its really cool to watch them when they dont know you are there lol

[fallen plaza]

The mix of mocap and physics is so cool

[storm jungle]

love muh gore

love me shotgun

[fallen plaza]

The tank running towards me

[crystal forum]

i didn't realize how awesome the infected animations were until i was an adult

[storm jungle]

same

[fallen plaza]

The double ammo stacked spas twelve

[crystal forum]

valve used to really kick forward game tech

[storm jungle]

as a small wee lass its like

"oh hey random zombies cool"

then you grow up and relaise these people arent even dead

they are just rabid lol

hence why they beat the shit out of you and never really do any biting etc

[fallen plaza]

I think they do bite in the comics

[crystal forum]

they're just super super angry

[outer wave]

Angron virus

[storm jungle]

cant be...

[tough haven]

Biting you say? Sounds like the nails

[dusk patrol]

and the movie largely sucked and made 1000 billion dollars

It’s almost like it was a movie about fucking Mario

[fallen plaza]

I wouldn’t mind a martin luthor king movie starring chris pratt

[crystal forum]

idk i didnt watch it

[dusk patrol]

I saw it with my niece and nephew

It wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t good

Any adult who saw that without a kid and liked it should be ashamed of themselves

[storm jungle]

I think it was good

i had fun watching it

[dusk patrol]

I repeat my earlier statement

[storm jungle]

Okay plastic toy soldiers man

but i will fully admit if it wasnt for Jack Black this movie would be way lower lol

[dusk patrol]

I didn’t say I wasn’t a hypocrite

[storm jungle]

damn it

[fallen plaza]

Sloppa

😁

[crystal forum]

jack black improves all movies

[storm jungle]

[storm jungle]

Supremely.

"Okay jack you are just suppose to sing a simp song about Bowser"

"Aight fam i got it"

🍑

[dusk patrol]

But regardless Chris Pratt was fine, people just like getting mad over stupid stuff

[fallen plaza]

I liked the evangelion mix of his songs

[storm jungle]

This was good tbh. Fuck Pratt lol

[dusk patrol]

I like how Garfield was a sacred cow too after Chris Pratt got cast, as if that corpse hasn’t been pillaged

[crystal forum]

it's just a symbol of how the movie industry never takes game actors seriously

[dusk patrol]

Like jfc guys it’s Garfield

[crystal forum]

especially voice actors

[dusk patrol]

Fucking Garfield

[storm jungle]

its not about garfield

its about just Chris Pratt sloppa

[dusk patrol]

It’s a symbol of how they wanna make money

[paper haven]

I watched the movie. Thought it was mostly pointless.

[dusk patrol]

And they do

[fallen plaza]

I mean the original cartoon voice actor was pretty good

[storm jungle]

^

[dusk patrol]

It made a billion bajillion dollars

[crystal forum]

games make movies with good voice actors too

[storm jungle]

theres nothing wrong with disliking slop hollywood actors

[dusk patrol]

Yes and no one cares because it made a majillion dollars

[rocky gale]

Garfield Kart Furious Racing is one of the best games ever made tbh

[paper haven]

One Brazillian pesos

[crystal forum]

like i dont mind if charles martinet is too old to voice mario that's fine

[dusk patrol]

Yes and they didn’t make a billion dollars.

[tough haven]

They gotta pull in a big name actor to attract wide appeal bc game movies are a risky investment

[dusk patrol]

Like, I get it but also who gives a fuck, it’s Mario and Garfield, it’s a kids movie

[paper haven]

Didn't a game just come out that lost like. A LOT of money?

[storm jungle]

Just because you dont give a fuck doesnt mean other people dont

so shut up in there will ya

[dusk patrol]

And those people need more going on in their life

[crystal forum]

game movies are only risky because execs refuse to learn how to properly adapt games into movies imo. it's why there's a precedent

[dusk patrol]

They’ve been super successful recently largely

[crystal forum]

like it's not that hard to treat your source material with respect

[dusk patrol]

Fallout, Sonic, Mario, Last of Us

[tough haven]

Oh of course, but they don’t know that

[dusk patrol]

Even Halo made some money

[tough haven]

They just see statistics

[crystal forum]

a good example of not giving a shit is borderlands movie

[dusk patrol]

For how much it sucked

Borderlands obviously wasn’t good but

[storm jungle]

okay but

[paper haven]

No we gotta update the plot for modern audiences.

[tough haven]

I will say though, sonic actually was pretty good by and large

[storm jungle]

Fallout and Last of Us were good

lol

[dusk patrol]

Surprisingly they’ve done well

[tough haven]

And fallout was good

[dusk patrol]

Yes

[storm jungle]

No

[dusk patrol]

I’m saying these were all successes

[fallen plaza]

Castlevania is a good one too

[paper haven]

Fallout the show?

[storm jungle]

Castlevania is uhhhh

id complain

but it has hot people

[fallen plaza]

Ignoring the gay sequel

[paper haven]

It was alright.

[dusk patrol]

What was the other

[storm jungle]

[tough haven]

You can tell which ones had an amount of care put into them

[dusk patrol]

FNaF did really well

It was ok

Not good but whatever

[fallen plaza]

Fnaf people have no standards

[paper haven]

The brotherhood of steel character really pissed me off.

[dusk patrol]

It was for dumbass kids who watch Markplier

[tough haven]

Did not like that one, but I fucking hate fnaf after 4

[paper haven]

-2 points.

[crystal forum]

fnaf is an example of a game movie being successful specifically because of the respect to the fandom

[tough haven]

Aren’t BOS characters supposed to be annoying?

[dusk patrol]

I had some issues but overall it was mostly fine

[fallen plaza]

I dont even get how fnaf has lasted this long

[dusk patrol]

Depends lol

[tough haven]

No clue

[fallen plaza]

If it werent for fucking matpat that franchise would he dead already

[dusk patrol]

It has a big built in fanbase

[tough haven]

It should have ended past 4

[paper haven]

Sure, but not brain dead.

[dusk patrol]

The games are ok I guess

I dunno

I don’t get it much either

[fallen plaza]

Its fucking diet horror

[dusk patrol]

Basically

[rocky gale]

Fallout show did well, how long before Elder Scrolls show

[dusk patrol]

It’s like a lot of teeny bopper horror stuff

[paper haven]

I am honestly shocked that FnaF has more than one game

[dusk patrol]

They’ve said no plans so far

[tough haven]

It’s just making their lore as obscure as possible to maintain engagement for people to try and unravel their lore that would be fucking shit if it was just outright stated

[storm jungle]

Its like space marines

people love slop

[dusk patrol]

[paper haven]

Hurtful

[storm jungle]

Lmao i know

i had to

[paper haven]

But not inaccurate

[tough haven]

Space marines at least let’s you feel like a badass

Fnaf is, uh… clicking simulator?

[storm jungle]

Pretty much

[tough haven]

With a loud noise occasionally

[dusk patrol]

It’s atmospheric

[storm jungle]

tho its a pretty accurate showcase of a low wage job

[dusk patrol]

It’s cheap

[storm jungle]

including bieng killed

[paper haven]

Clicking sim with some jump scares

[rocky gale]

https://tenor.com/view/oblivion-gif-18732240

[tough haven]

I somehow hate the free range ones more

[dusk patrol]

It has that YouTuber audience built in

[paper haven]

Save me Todd!

[dusk patrol]

Where you can watch your favorite tuber overreact

[fallen plaza]

Not everyone reads the entire heresy series as much as you dilly willy

[paper haven]

Don't forget the thumbnail with a red circle, a big arrow, a stupid expression and some words.

[storm jungle]

You gotta analyze trash to know it well Twatty Zimmy

[fallen plaza]

Not eveyone is desensitized to slop

[paper haven]

I like the Horus Heresy though.

[storm jungle]

I like some parts

the fanbase is terrible

thats about it

also speaking of slop

[fallen plaza]

Uh

[paper haven]

Oh, well.

[fallen plaza]

Wrong

[paper haven]

The fans.

[storm jungle]

ah yes

content

[dusk patrol]

At least it’s not porn

[fallen plaza]

Mods, ban her.

[storm jungle]

I wanted to be merciful

[paper haven]

FnaF/Space marine crossover when?

[dusk patrol]

(The artist definitely does porn)

[fallen plaza]

Oh definitely

[dusk patrol]

They all do

The sick fucks

[paper haven]

That is disgusting!

[fallen plaza]

Animal fuckers

[paper haven]

Who? Who specifically?

[dusk patrol]

It’s not even interesting either

[fallen plaza]

Why would you want it to

[dusk patrol]

It’s just “hot naked girl with vague themed stuff as her outfit”

“Naked girl but she has a golden bikini, Custodes!”

“Naked girl but guard helmet!”

“Naked girl but three arms!”

[fallen plaza]

Thats basically most adeptus ridiculous posters

[dusk patrol]

Yarp

Thank god imaginarywarhammer largely cracked down on that stuff

[paper haven]

What's the gamersupps flavor again?

[dusk patrol]

Now they Trojan horse in with some shitty comic with a cute girl

[paper haven]

something abs.

[dusk patrol]

And their Patreon link where you can see her getting reamed

[fallen plaza]

Cock guacamole gamer shit piss penis

[paper haven]

Ah yes, of course

How could I forget

[paper haven]

I must have missed something, who?

[fallen plaza]

What comic is it

[dusk patrol]

Legit this is just

A thing

Like it happens so much

I’m at work rn so I’m not gonna look them up but do you’re on the sub you’ll see and every fucking time

It links to a nsfw Patreon

Same with r/comics

[fallen plaza]

Oh wait

[crystal forum]

coward

[fallen plaza]

Is it the black and white comics

[dusk patrol]

Or onlyfans

[paper haven]

That's why I avoid such places

[storm jungle]

They did? Huh lol

unexpected based 40k reddit mod moment

[fallen plaza]

With a lot of big tiddies and you see a lot of shitty vas voicing over them?

[dusk patrol]

It still comes up but they had a big post and pretty unanimously the community said “fuck no” to allowing more nsfw stuff

[storm jungle]

yeah theres an entire subreddit for slop 40k smut anyway

[dusk patrol]

But there was degenerates downvoted at the bottom which was also funny

[storm jungle]

the trash can stay there

[crystal forum]

40k is literally the last setting i would get turned on by

[dusk patrol]

Yeah iirc they made a separate sub

[storm jungle]

Nah uh

[dusk patrol]

Dude same I don’t get it

[rocky gale]

There's a lot of comics do it nowadays, the final panel where it has their links and socials will have a thing saying "Bonus NSFW panel on Patreon" even on like the most normal casual non sexual comics imaginable

[storm jungle]

r/40ksmut existed for a long awhile

[fallen plaza]

What about this

[paper haven]

You say that in past tense. Does that mean it was destroyed?

[crystal forum]

im not a sick twisted tankophile

[paper haven]

Did you see the body?

[crystal forum]

however i would make love to an autocannon

[storm jungle]

I meant as in its been around for awhile

and its about as generic as you can expect lol

[paper haven]

Oh. Gross.

[fallen plaza]

Big boobie custodian number 4 billion

at least the australian guy doesnt do this

gotta give him credit

[dusk patrol]

Talk to a girl

oh

[dusk patrol]

Please

[storm jungle]

do you mean majorkill

lol

[crystal forum]

yes

[storm jungle]

His patreon has like

[dusk patrol]

Maybe two girls

[storm jungle]

valrak banging a random woman

LOL

seriously what the fuck

[paper haven]

Who's Valrak again?

[storm jungle]

the Imperial Fists dude

[paper haven]

Name sounds familiar

[crystal forum]

is she skimpy tho

[fallen plaza]

He definitely would start posting pics on his own in a cosplay

[paper haven]

Oh, alright.

[crystal forum]

gender swaps can be tasteful

[dusk patrol]

insert Sam and Gilly sex scene here

[paper haven]

But they usually aren't

[dusk patrol]

Dude that one dude who does genderswapped primarchs and they all have the same generic anime face and massive tits and butts

It’s so goofy

[winter vessel]

Cnmbwjx3

[crystal forum]

is that a name

or a bottom reaction

i cannot tell

[dusk patrol]

And then all the NPCs go “OMG ID LET HER RUIN MY DAY CAUSE SHES HOT GET IT HAHAHAHA”

[paper haven]

I saw a genderswapped Angron somewhere and I thought it was pretty good.

[dusk patrol]

I have strong feelings on this stuff unfortunately

[dusk patrol]

There’s some that are higher effort

[fallen plaza]

I get it man, porn memes are fucking obnoxious

[winter vessel]

The one who makes this kind of stuff

[rose thorn]

Gender swapping troupes is always fun

[fallen plaza]

I do have a soft spot for gachimuchi though

[hallow plover]

That's an understatement

[paper haven]

White hair, huh?

[dusk patrol]

Yeah him

All his stuff

[crystal forum]

that doesnt look distasteful to me

[rocky gale]

Counterpoint

[crystal forum]

oh wait

[dusk patrol]

He just gives them massive tits

[crystal forum]

nvm i just noticed lol

[dusk patrol]

See that’s good

[fallen plaza]

If it werent for the really weird shaped boob armor its pretty good

[crystal forum]

those are fucking 3d boobs damn

[winter vessel]

Well there’s actually another art detail of vulkan where her hair becomes bright blue when angry

[dusk patrol]

You’re missing the other images too

Where he has them in almost no clothes or naked

[paper haven]

Since Primarchs are like, 12 feet tall

[crystal forum]

she got the statue of liberty stare

[winter vessel]

That redditor who started the Primarch Gf, learned how to weaponize cnmbwjx3’s g bend art, and began one helluva trend

[dusk patrol]

I don’t blame them but

I also do

They can take the money, I’ll give my ridicule

[crystal forum]

the eternal battle artists must face between income and integrity

i like tipping the balance

slowly but surely

[paper haven]

I am quite good at art. I also know that the best way, by a longshot, to make money is porn.

[winter vessel]

I mean, from my take, the art from Cnmbwjx3 isn’t that bad.

[crystal forum]

you can't buy bread with outdated views

just sayin

[winter vessel]

But I have a hunch on who he was referencing Lorgar from

[crystal forum]

i have a hole in my ear 😔

[rocky gale]

Most people do

It's how the sound gets in

[paper haven]

Be more concerning if there wasn't one

[crystal forum]

they in fact dont

[winter vessel]

I’m more curious on how some people can move their ears without their hands

[crystal forum]

you are not supposed to have a hole between your inner ear and your outer one

also called the eardrum

i didn't even know adults could get otitis media

but here i am

[rocky gale]

An ear infection?

Yea anyone can get one

[opaque coyote]

I think they made a version of Ahriman I like

Mainly due to two reasons

1. The design actually looks good

2. Lightning tits

The big tatas actually fit cause it's

Lore accurate (tm)

[opaque coyote]

I'm gonna get killed for this.

Is that Perty?

[opaque coyote]

Tbf it is fun to draw in some weird way.

Still sucks that artists usually have to draw it all the time

Like NSFW artists are usually really good

[rocky gale]

Yes

[paper haven]

Sort of a requirement.

[opaque coyote]

But when they go back to SFW it barely gets any views

Which is sad because again

Really good

[opaque coyote]

Okay cool I guessed it right.

It was either that or Angron since the hair kinda reminds me of the butchers nails.

And I was like

"Are those the nails or is that normal hair? I am assuming it is normal hair."

[rocky gale]

I think it's a combination of hair and like tactical tube things that Pert and a bunch of Space Marines had

[opaque coyote]

Yeah

[rocky gale]

Like these

[opaque coyote]

I also thought that the Custodes would look like Greek statues

Since that's what they are often described as

So the women are basically just

grab female Greek statue

scale up

While the Primarchs have a bit more variance in their bodies.

Because they each have their own perfections and imperfections

Is it weird that for a while. I thought Leman Russ would have a "Bear" type of body?

More of a strongman rather than a body builder

Same with Angron

[fallen plaza]

Dorns imperfections were that he had drywall as a personality

[opaque coyote]

Literally so autistic that magic just

Doesn't work on him

[fallen plaza]

Not even autism

[opaque coyote]

He's boring and autistic

[opaque coyote]

Honestly I think he was the Emperor's experiment with blanks?

Judging by how he basically just

Nullifies any Psyker magic

[fallen plaza]

Dunno

Dun care

[opaque coyote]

I mean it fits that the Emperor would consider going the other way

For his "Master Plan(tm)"

[fallen plaza]

If dorn was a blank no one would like him

[opaque coyote]

Mhm true.

...

[rocky gale]

I mean..

[opaque coyote]

...

I uh

Does he even use the Primarch charm

[fallen plaza]

He's blank to me that's for sure

[opaque coyote]

I also haven't actually heard people like Dorn

[rocky gale]

He's the blankest guy I know tbf

[opaque coyote]

Like there are more fans of Ferrus than there are of Dorn tbh

[dusk patrol]

Uh

That’s not true lol

[opaque coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/wes-fall-to-knees-scream-gif-27602552

[fallen plaza]

There are way too many dorn glazers

[opaque coyote]

Okay yeah maybe saying that is too far

[fallen plaza]

More than desrved

[opaque coyote]

How he's

Kinda boring

[fallen plaza]

He did Jack shit during the heresy beyond the last few years of it

And he gets the most credit for jt

[opaque coyote]

He doesn't really have much of a personality.

[fallen plaza]

Meanwhile the ravenguard were actually smart and get nothing

[opaque coyote]

I mean I think Perturabo is more interesting

Although tbf that's probably because he's a giant mess

[fallen plaza]

Whatever floats your boat

Or sinks it

[rocky gale]

The best thing Dorn did was get a lot of Imperial Fists killed at the Iron Cage, that was pretty cool

[opaque coyote]

More a series of walking flaws that does Sieges

[fallen plaza]

Sure

[opaque coyote]

That goes for a lot of Primarchs tbf

[fallen plaza]

I wasn't aware

Next your gonna tell me Horus is bad

[opaque coyote]

You truly are

The Horus heresy

[opaque coyote]

I do not get why people shit on Perturabo for doing the Roman Decimation.

While they ignore Dorn literally sending people to die in a useless battle

[rocky gale]

Not only do they ignore Dorn sending them to die in a useless battle, they glaze him for it

Because it was "part of his plan™️"

[opaque coyote]

It was part of Perturabo's plan to do the Decimation thing also

I SWEAR

[fallen plaza]

Z

[opaque coyote]

AAAA

The fanbase makes me go a lil cuckoo

A lil crazy

A lil bit of falling into chaos and skinning ppl alive

[fallen plaza]

Ok
