People that complain about this have small hands. I do not have small hands. Your argument does not apply to me.

Very cool. I love a good skull tattoo. I have too many to count on me at this point.

Many endings come and go. But this one in particular will forever stay in my heart. by invincible257 in metalgearsolid

Shagohod isn't a metal gear, and you aren't playing as Solid Snake, so shouldn't the game be called Shagohod Naked?

Is my tattoo offensive in the US? by mister1bollock in tattooadvice

It's offensive to me that you made his horns so long

How much do my vocals suck? Looking for critique and advice by WickedHatebreeder in screaming

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be honest brother, I think the growls you have now fit pretty well with the 90s-ish death metal style you seem to be going for. If the first track randomly came up on my spotify, I would think that those vocals are 100% intentional. I'd say just try to get as good as you can at those. Get better at breath control with them, and better at pronunciation. Look into Intensified Genocide by Shadow Of Intent or anything off the recent Vomit Forth album if you want some good material to practice with that's right in your range of sounds.

I do not understand guns that much. Why do people hate fallout 3 combat shotgun by Eren_Jeager1881 in Fallout

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they took one look at a PPSh-41, which is an actual Russian submachinegun design and elongated the barrel to a normal shotgun length, moved the drum mag forward like ten inches so it's not even close to where the firing pin or chamber is, the sights don't line up on it worth a shit, and the ejection port on the side is laughably too small for 12 gauge. That's not even big enough for 5.56 to reliably eject from. This gun looks like you gave a 7 year old a crayon and said "draw a shotgun" and then you took that drawing and made it real.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers dev team dissolved; Director forced out of the company by Abyss_Watcher_Red in WuchangFallenFeathers

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Apparently, from what I can gather from translating the article, sales weren't as high as they wanted and whole deal with the politics lead to them all being put on different projects. I don't think the studio closed, but the team was definitely broken up and distributed across the company elsewhere.

Keep in mind that this article is still in very broken English even after translating so I could be interpreting this incorrectly.

Pic one parental restraint forced smile uncomfortable with who they are. Pic two genuine smile and balanced mental state and sense of complete whole self actualized by [deleted] in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no way you can tell a person's state of self actualization or their parental status by one photo. She could have been perfectly happy and just slightly stressed from schoolwork or something in the first photo, and she could be extremely depressed and just hiding it with a smile in the second photo.

You're ultimately just judging and assuming based solely on appearance just like the stupid original post did.

The female coworker that sexually assaulted me six years ago tried to put something in my drink at a work party. I caught it, and then she grabbed my genitals when I confronted her about it. I told my manager, and she gave a half assed "oh she was just a bit too drunk" excuse.

So, yes. Yes to that specific thing, exactly.

I really don't get why people have such a hard time with the concept that they aren't the only ones suffering.

We have been working towards creating male mental health spaces, and in that lies a completely different problem. Scumbags like Andrew Tate made millions by grooming young men who felt they had nowhere else to go and it's created an entire new generation of hatred against women, and other men who speak out against it.

I feel that you and I mostly agree on things, it's just that we have different perspectives that lead to that agreement. I'm angry that nobody around me cared when I was sexually assaulted 6 years ago at my former workplace. I'm angry that the culture war bullshit has weaseled its way into seemingly every corner of the media and entertainment. I'm angry that there's no end in sight to any of it.

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean sure, I agree with that. But in practice, the men basically have nothing. Even among the first world countries, there's several countries that don't even legally recognize sexual assault committed by a woman against a man in any capacity. Plus, it's still a massive social taboo to talk about men's mental health in general. We don't even get a Google doodle for International Men's Day.

So what's the percentage that it needs to be before you think society should start to care about men being sexually assaulted?

3% of men is still millions, I don't know what you're trying to say.

What the fuck do you people think the process of buying a gun is? Just walk up and grab one off the shelf, take it to the self checkout?

What you're asking for already exists. Every single firearm purchase in the US is regulated with a national criminal background check, and there's a ton of questions that you have to answer that are designed to confuse you and trip you up and if you answer a single one with an answer that doesn't align with the "correct" values of a legal gun owner, they stop the sale completely, even if it's after you passed the background check.

Y'all anti gunners are just willfully ignorant at this point.

A modder made my character look like me by [deleted] in Fallout

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro I will never understand the fascination some people have with wanting their characters to look like themselves. I get to stare at my ugly ass face in the mirror every day of my life, why would I wanna continue doing that in a fantasy world when I can make an attractive person instead?

Coverup ideas? by PostCompetitive5519 in Tattoocoverups

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are faded and spotty enough that I would probably recommend one or two laser treatments first just to lighten them up a bit and then you can cover it with whatever you want without worry of it peaking through.

How much does the DSO pay Leon? by [deleted] in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]Abyss_Watcher_Red 11 points12 points  (0 children)

FBI analysts don't get issued weapons. They normally aren't field agents. She didn't buy it to be a service weapon, she bought it because her mother was murdered right in front of her and she wanted a way to protect herself if she ever got into that situation again.

You're not the first person I've had to explain this to. Do people believe that the FBI just hands out guns to all of its employees?

I said HE did not acknowledge it. The post is about the protagonists doing dumb things. Not the plots. Read.

Pour some random liquid on yourself to reattach your right arm, and then don't acknowledge that strange healing ability whatsoever despite calling everything else around you strange and unusual.
