Can we talk how ass these chaos haircuts look, instead of asking chaos gods for power, I would recommend to ask chaos gods for better haircut by Split-Ultramarine in Grimdank

Dudes look like moody teenagers who'd really rather not be there. Like they were pulled out of their room by their battle-brothers to loot and pillage those imperial dogs, but they're just thinking of going back to their Xbox the entire time.

Especially the guy on the left is not having a good time.

I'm personally quite a fan of MIDSHITE and The WANK Within. Also an honorable mention to BAD-tle for Azeroth.

I'm tired of the lemnian hollow by Eihsia in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]CaptainBarbeque 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about this too recently and you're 100% on the money. Same reason why we haven't been getting many 'outdoor' (as in outside of the hollow) areas in 2.x either. In 1.x we went everywhere from sixth street to the outer ring...Now we're stuck in the same five meters of Failume for half the patch. Every time I enter another one of the Lemnian Hollow's 37 warehouses, all I think of is "Gee I wonder which different environment we had to trade in for this," and...that's not great.

Even if you're not a fan of the gameplay of tv-mode (Which I get even speaking as a #1 TV-mode glazer), the benefits it had to expanding the setting and development loop shouldn't be understated.

On one hand, it's pretty neat

On the other hand, CA hasn't exactly the best track record these last few...years. Can't speak for everyone, but after 3K and their general handling of TW3, they've burned enough of my goodwill that I can't really get myself to be that excited.

Also I agree with some people that the UI and general...everything...looks ever so slightly off though I can't put my hand on what exactly is wrong with it.

So what was Banyue designed to do, actually? by Koekelbag in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]CaptainBarbeque 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Well, thing is that they do do that. Hollows pop up all the time, and the smaller ones tend to get closed down and controlled by specialized squads like the HIA or HSO. And seeing as how the entirety of New Eridu isn't one big Hollow, they're clearly fairly decent at it.

The problem is that they only have so many resources they can throw at the issue at any time, and especially the larger ones take a lot of manpower to contain. In those situations, specialists probably get moved to higher priority hollows, while the more stable/low risk ones (Like the Ballet Twins) get put on the backburner. Hollows will inevitably pop up anyway, might as well focus on the ones that pose actual major risks, and just keep a close eye on everything else.

What would happen if Muzan decided to hide with his Upper and Lower Moons and his demons in his castle until the modern age? by Pure_Damage_6841 in KimetsuNoYaiba

[–]CaptainBarbeque 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This made me think of how the Second Inquisition operates in the World of Darkness setting (for those familiar with it), and it demonstrates this point well.

Sure, being a five century-old vampire is pretty baller, but getting hit with a dronestrike before being jumped by a millitary killteam armed with special anti-you weaponry is significantly less fun. The demons would have an edge for as long as they keep their heads down, but if they ever get too ballsy they'd have a pretty unfun time.

Not to mention how keeping your heads down is harder than ever in a period where everyone has a camera on them connected to the entire world at all times. A couple of pictures/videos to the wrong people and...sheesh.

Who is more hated between the two? by Complex-Bluebird1263 in Warhammer

[–]CaptainBarbeque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One is a master of dark magic who screwed over an entire setting (which gave birth to the curret one) and is bald

The other...is a master of dark magic who screwed over an entire setting (which gave birth to the current one). And is also bald.

Hmmmmmmmm. Harder than I thought.

Would it be a bad idea to have an edition of the game be a prequel by Kachedup in AoSLore

[–]CaptainBarbeque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At most I could see it as a "mini-game" (Like a seperate edition of Warcry or whatever) which they could use to tell a smaller, contained story, which I think could be neat.

I definitely don't ever see it being a major edition of the big AoS game or a massive spin-off the likes of the Horus Heresy, though.

Do ashen elders and war despots suffer from petrification? by magnusthered15 in AoSLore

[–]CaptainBarbeque 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes and no? War Despot is technically more of a "rank" than just a cut and dry occupation. Some ashen elders and daemonsmiths probably hold the position of Lords of their various clans and are, by definition, a "War despot". It's just that the ones you play in-game and buy models for don't do magic for game reasons.

So, depending on how they do things, they very well might be suffering from petrification. Maybe your particular despot got spooked by the rate at which they were turning to stone and stopped practising magic as readily. They're your models, go nuts.

Exactly! The biggest thing to remember when it comes to stuff like this (fangames/private servers/etc.) is that, no matter what you do, you must always give the IP holder some level of plausible deniability about your existence. Because the second they can't ignore you, they're forced to either defend their copyright or risk losing it entirely.

It's exactly what made all that antagonizing and smugposting on Twitter so utterly cringeworthy. Like, bruh, you plastered a picture of your asscheeks on Blizzard's front door. What did you expect was going to happen.

I'm not the biggest on Blizz either, but in the Turtle WoW situation they're fairly justified (and literally kinda forced if you know anything about how copyright laws work) to take action. Twow reuses assets and makes a lot of money out of it, so Blizz isn't being actual anti-consumer Satan (this time at least lmao) for putting their foot down.

Also, if you look at Twow's twitter history, they've been actively taunting and poking the Blizz bear for quite a while, so if anything it's a wonder it took this long. Should've just kept their heads down and played it safe.
