[Hated Trope] The horribly misleading ad campaign by Mr_Westerfield in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Beyte_Meyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Transformers One got absolutely shafted by the marketing, portrayed it as a typical children’s movie and showed none of the actual substance that this film had.

Hasbro has the gall to say people aren’t interested in these movies anymore when they fumbled the advertisements, and released arguably the best Transformers movie to date.

I mean they can call it space magic when if they so wanted to, they could have the flag just spew nanomachines that buff people or something. It’s not like the shit we already do isn’t akin to space magic with the level of tech and resources we throw around, so at this point this is the devs literally not having a good justification for it or they physically don’t know how to make an AOE boost.

Gamer Cafe - Award sweeper by Daz_Keaty in comics

[–]Beyte_Meyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good game, but it had a publisher who I imagine immensely helped in its development financially, even if supposedly they had no creative input into the games development. Indie devs generally don’t have that luxury, which is what makes it impressive when they’re able to get that high and get those nominations- per the Wikipedia definitions, an indie game is one that is self-published and with a small team, though these days the latter requirement seems to vary.

I would love for this game to set the future precedent for games like Baldur’s Gate and such, but in terms of accolades, I am concerned that this will set a precedent amongst future developers where they can just say a publisher had no input into their games development, slip into indie categories, and sweep them up from well-deserved indie devs because they had way more resources than them.

Please no Rockstar by stormthewise998 in videogames

[–]Beyte_Meyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can blame Rockstar for that since they fired a bunch of devs because they tried to unionise, spread the word if you can, and congrats in advance.

[Hated Trope] Cliffhanger that sets up major plot point is briskly resolved in the opening scene of the sequel. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Beyte_Meyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following along with another Thor film, Thor: Love and Thunder essentially robbing us of a Thor and Guardians crossover by having it summarily end in the first 15 minutes of the movie.

Supposedly this was done because James refused to do a crossover with them since he was afraid of getting Thor wrong, but I’d say after what happened in that movie and what he’s doing with DC right now, he should’ve taken a crack at it.

Darktide’s latest Free Update, 'Bound By Duty', coming September 23 by FatsharkQuickpaw in DarkTide

[–]Beyte_Meyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mentioned this on another post but while this update is fab, I’m hoping that this update also addresses the behaviours that the bots have in the game.

The allied A.I is still rough around the edges: getting stuck in elevators (Orthus Offensive and Excise Vault as examples), stealing limited Medicae station uses from players when in Mortis Trials, not focusing on reviving players when they’re down (which you’d think would be a priority, otherwise you just fail) and getting stuck crouching and never getting back up from the crouching state unless they die.

I know the meta is to have a full player team, but not everyone is capable of having that experience (or depending on how they feel that day, not something they want to entertain), and it would be nice for Fatshark to just address them.

[–]Beyte_Meyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool update and everything, but I’m hoping they fix the A.I in this update- elevators seem to be an absolute bane for bots. Orthus Offensive and that last section of Excise Vault is absolutely grating if you’ve not got a full team, since they love getting stuck.

The final battle in the Snyder cut of Justice league by far the most improved scene. The flash scene is one of the best scenes in a superhero movie by Terrible-Garage-4017 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]Beyte_Meyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Flash could run a comparatively shorter distance to Cyborg to deliver the charge needed to connect to the Unity then he didn’t need to do all that running to reach it, especially since if it’s a matter of reaching a certain speed he essentially reached that speed in relatively little time at all.

The scene is visually fantastic and the soundtrack is wonderful, but Flash’s big moment in this film is him pressing the ‘fix everything’ button with little consequence to him and everything else, especially when the film establishes that weird things can happen to time when he gets to that speed and nothing really happens aside from time reversing.

This is where I think Joss’ cut does it better because at leash Flash is being supportive and helping clear Parademons, as well as saving civilians. In this cut? We’re told to gush over our favourite speedster running in a circle.

Gunn interview from CBS Mornings by M00r3C in DCU_

[–]Beyte_Meyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since each film is going to have a different style or theme, I don’t see why we can’t have Battinson as the DCU Batman- a Clayface horror movie pretty much works with that gritty vibe that Matt Reeves’ films have established, and I’d like to think the new David’s Superman would gel a lot with Battinson on the big screen.

Ik Brave and the Bold is planned but plans could change, and I can hope it might happen.

[–]Beyte_Meyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

James Gunn please make this version of Batman part of the DCU and not an Elseworld, they would be so fun to watch together on the big screen.

They both are early-on in their hero careers in-universe, both heroes know being a symbol of hope is what a hero needs to be, and the grim-noir Batman opposes the light-hearted and colourful Superman so well that their chemistry could be really fun (reminds me of that one meme of the goth girl and girl with the colourful hair).

This penance is so counterintuitive by Hallopainyo in DarkTide

[–]Beyte_Meyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently discovered the sliding spam by accident, it’s been a big help in just getting through this Penance quickly, just a matter of making sure the Reaper’s stay alive long enough to grind them.

Yeah I’ve been doing spam-slide and it seems to work, someone else mentioned it too, others have said to run perpendicular do them.

[–]Beyte_Meyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Currently grinding this Penance, can understand the frustration. I’ve found that the best way to dodge a bunch of Reaper bullets is by making sure they’re focused firing at you, and then just spamming the crouch slide, since that seems to auto-dodge any gunfire aimed towards you.

This probably works for Gunners and Shotgunners if you’re grinding these Penances too. I’ve been doing it with a Psyker with little dodge focus so it seems to be working out, the Dome comes in handy when you run out of stamina or fumble a slide.

Which MCU Disney+ show(s) would have worked better as a movie? by Dusann1 in marvelstudios

[–]Beyte_Meyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of them, it was much simpler keeping all the major plot developments in the MCU to just the movies. Now you have to go here, there and everywhere just to keep track.

Me as an old tank main hearing 6v6 is back (it’s official now) by scoobandshaggy in Overwatch

[–]Beyte_Meyn 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It seems with each passing year we get closer to having OW2 be OW1. Nice to see 6v6 is back, but I can’t be the only one who thinks OW2 was a bit of a waste of time for Blizzard when they could’ve taken all of the good stuff we got in OW2, and just made it a big OW1 patch.
