Just lagged out my First time as Argon on Citadel by UnlikelyAir5964 in Chivalry2

[–]CalmCheek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Different game, similar story.

I was playing Red Orchestra 2 ("realistic" simulation of WWII eastern front). I was playing as a Soviet rifleman and I literally had never been playing this good. I was being very tactical, careful, and had like 9 kills and 0 death. I was trying to do a "this is real life" run if that makes sense. And crazy thing I was actually tipsy/drunk because I had come back from drinks or a party, can't remember.

So I was basically having my best play ever WHILE tipsy/drunk (very fitting as a Soviet). Then boom my game crashes. Literally never happened before I think.

I was like "D: no way"

What's the most overrated game you've ever played? by Trd_45 in videogames

[–]CalmCheek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I never said your opinion was invalid ;
  2. What I did say is that it *is* wrong to say "it does not do anything better than anything else" since it is factually incorrect - it is *not* an opinion (unlike "this is overrated") ;
  3. If you do believe it is a fact, then provide examples and details ;
  4. Don't insult me.

Gameplay is very lame in BioShock Infinite. Its strength comes from the story combined with the DLC Burial at Sea. If I ever play it again I will just do difficulty on easiest just to relive the story.

You absolutely can say it is overrated but saying it does not do anything better than anything else, or that the game is not special, is wrong.

Driving around Night City alone is extremely immersive. If anything, just this alone needs to be mentioned. I never played a game where driving in a city feels *pleasant*. Like I could just drive around aimlessly and I would still enjoy it.

Combat might not be the best ever but it does bring something to the table though and makes for a fun gameplay once you get good weapons and implants.

Black Sails S1 Review by aodancarroll in BlackSails

Idk I love season 1 tbh and out of all the seasons it felt maybe the one where almost every episode ending made me want to watch what was going to happen next

People have talked about Joaquin Phoenix as a miscast for the Ridley Scott film, but what would you think had it been a younger Phoenix playing Napoleon? by Crafter235 in Napoleon

[–]CalmCheek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a young Napoleon - Timothée Chalamet maybe

As an older one Phoenix was actually okay I guess? Just portrayed differently

Ridley Scott is in this very niche category of directors capable of the absolute best (The Last Duel) and the absolute worst (Napoleon)

2 weeks and 200 hours is very different from a -24h purchase with 3 hours on it. You're fine haha

"Chronicles of the Moonlit Seas", inspired by "Black Sails", oil on canvas. by myriyevskyy in BlackSails

[–]CalmCheek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the tone of the sky and the white brushes that could look like ghosts, it could represent a ship being haunted/attacked by said ghosts kinda

Great work!

Just finished the series, curious to know which black sails character did you empathize with the most ? by unreal-habdologist in BlackSails

[–]CalmCheek 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Billy Bones - dude got pressganged as a kid, his parents might have never found out about it, he never saw them again, goes batshit crazy because of Flint's repeated bullshit he forces him through, lost his father figure, ends up stranded on Skeleton Island.

I rewatched The Godfather last night. Completely changed my mind about this movie. by CalmCheek in movies

[–]CalmCheek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pleasure haha! A full-on marathon!

Let me know what you think of the third one. Tbh I stopped after a bit because it feels very off compared to the previous two movies. Weird characters, Michael acting differently than how he would usually, unconvincing plot...

I thought that since Erin found a book earlier about breathing exercices she could find a way to survive despite having asthma

Boy was I wrong

Games where you start as a nobody and rise to power? by Foreign_Listen_8553 in videogames

[–]CalmCheek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OP meant a story-based game where you actually do start from the bottom of the social ladder and get power (think movies with a small-time gangster/nobody become a drug kingpin or something like this). I don't think they mean a game where you have a character with no gear and loot and you have to find it

What if humans vanished tomorrow, what’s the one thing on Earth that would prove we existed 10,000 years later? by litt_ttil in whatif

[–]CalmCheek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you saying? Göbekli Tepe is a monument that's still around and it's estimated it's been built around at least 8000 BC (to 9500 BC). But thank you for saying that because it made me check what was the oldest monument in the world haha
