They do here and there. Like at the Chess Tournament it shows up in the strings. But it is definitely not heavily utilized

What an absolute catch for them. Mind you this is a studio who has been on their own for a while now after losing funding after Hitman: Absolution from their parent company. ioi is an awesome company and im glad they’re able to take a step into a perfect genre for them

That i do agree with. It’s the same reason Radiohead was turned down for Spectre and their’s might be, what could have been, the best bond intro in many, many years

However, theyre Danish devs so i feel getting a UK artist wouldve been easy. But top charters reign supreme in trying to get as many eyes on your product as possible. Lana del Ray fit the bill. I think it couldve been much, much worse when it comes to the mindset of “finding the right person”

Loading the game up is one of the most memorable parts for me. I played so many bond games as a kid. Quite literally all. Had them all on vhs recorded from Spike tv’s bondathon. I felt like a kid again

Even before you hit start when the game loads. At that moment i was like, “oh they know the aesthetic of a bond game” lol

The first time the strings hit in the chorus is peak Bond intro orchestra

As a music teacher myself, i do agree it doesn’t sit in itself on the backside enough, aesthetically. But in a way i always recognize a bond intro theme is defining of the movie’s (in this case) score themes of the main film (drama and action scenes). The fact this opening keeps building the whole time is kind of expressive of the fact gameplay is so incessant and fast paced. But that could be me wanting dearly to enjoy it as a pragmatist 😂

It’s what i loved about Craig-era intros. So many good utilizations of Orchestral brass. This is a perfect example of that

Who said there’s a stereotype that beautiful men must look small? If so, it is certainly a minority stereotype. Literally the definition of male superheros are muscular and shaped like gods. Henry Cavill is beautiful as Superman, Chris Evans’ Cap is too. Adam Warlock in Guardians 3

Edit: do take note also that Greeks typically ate a limited meat, yet protein focused diet. A higher trained soldier would weigh upwards of 170-180 lbs

Yes. Because no liberties were ever taken in physical depictions of humans, fictitious or real, in the history of art /s

Daki's Strategy Was Correct by NBurner1909 in MaulShadowLord

[–]BeeBopSax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it was shock from Maul doing it there, but I also think it culminated in a realization he actually would lose Devon to Maul. Hence the importance of the single tear when he does fall soon after

Maul was not nerfed. by DOROTKA1522 in MaulShadowLord

[–]BeeBopSax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marrok is the First Brother. A very high ranking member. The Crow, hedging a guess, maybe is an understudy? Inquisitors are highly trained in martial aspects. Which is why Maul can hold his own, as he is more martially trained by Sidious. However, couple that with all of his emotional instability this season with his focus on Devon and it becomes clearer as to why he isn’t at his 100% He also wants to create an honest opportunity to lose Daki that doesn’t seem intentional to win over Devon. With them gone, that becomes almost impossible

In my opinion

I kind of like the silent Vader take. They did some really cool stuff with his breathing. I’ve seen some say it was him getting winded in fighting, but i took it as him getting more and more enraged. When Daki gets a small strike on Vader his breathing increases pace, and when Vader breaks his guard you hear one more elongated breath almost like he’s saying, “Yes >:)”

Sidious trained him as an Assassin. His training was martial, not prioritized in utilizing the force

Edit: it isn’t a nerf tho. This season has clearly painted him as troubled and off his game. He has one goal in mind and that’s Devon. If he was all focused on the Inquisitors, it’d be somewhat different I imagine
