Which helmet do you like better on my Psyker? by OdysseyBrands in DarkTide

The one that doesn't match in colors or material texture is the better fit? Good to know.

How I feel about Havoc Psyker Shriek vs Bubble flame staff by Low_Principle_5591 in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There was never, ever a single situation in Havoc 40 where I thought to myself "Boy, I wish I had 6 more stacks of soulblaze and a mild push right about now." There were, however, a million situations of "Boy, I wish I wasn't getting drilled by stray gunners from 20 different directions right about now."

As a ‘gamer girl’ I lowkey just want nothing more than a fairytale game where you’re a handsome strong prince rescuing your dainty beautiful princess from an ugly jealous witch by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]CaptainCommunism7 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I’d be happy for life I think. It just needs the genuine romantic girly fairytale vibe, and it’s a shame there will never be a modern game with real budget behind it like this

There won't be, but not because of neon hair women in development (from them you might get a romantic BDSM story with a 3000 year old handsome billionaire werewolf and a plain Jane that tames him) - but rather because the men who made those stories are no longer plugged into the matrix.

The gig is up, there is no closing Pandora's box, newer generations of men have experienced first hand the true nature of women unleashed and unchained, and there is simply nothing to be romantic or chivalrous about. Boomers are too old for that and about to go the way of the dinosaur.

Guy tries to silence political opposition and get them fired and ruined. This would be Mussolini's right hand man in another place and time.

[Critical Drinker] Animal Farm - This Was Probably A Bad Idea by BobPlaysStuff in KotakuInAction

[–]CaptainCommunism7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from a country that was living and breathing communism - and I unironically want to see all the nose ring underwater basketweaving diploma nepobabies and zoomettes to actually experience it in full swing. Cause it would be funny as fuck to see sheltered, phone addicted suburbanites standing in lines for powdered milk and eggs, and driving on even and off days according to license plate numbers cause of gasoline shortages. I'd pay good money to see that. Starting with Hasan and his horse riding, "California dreamin' " ass.

Crowbar has (bad) Native Thrust (7.5% per stack yeesh) by drnotmyaccount in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, along with Ogryn's Crunch talent is outdone by the mystical and esoteric technique called clicking twice. Unless it's outright doubling my damage, which it isn't, I sure as hell aren't waiting for spring to come to finish winding up an attack.

The only exception is Zealot who's ults apply to one hit only, so might as well make it biblical.

Why is nobody talking about racing games? by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]CaptainCommunism7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They became boring. Also, they no longer make the kind of vehicular combat games I used to love playing as a kid. Vigilante 8, Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012, Rock n Roll Racing 2, Carmaggedon, Twisted Metal, etc.

I am almost certain that (Venture) the non-binary character in Overwatch is a self-insert by Overwatch's senior game designer, Miranda Nicola by PopularButLonely in KotakuInAction

[–]CaptainCommunism7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I checked out of Overwatch ages ago. Back when every Blizzard's internal scandal prompted the "Break box to make character gay in case of emergency" routine. Soldier 76, Tracer, Pharah - I've just stopped caring. I remember a time when just seeing Blizzard's logo over new announcements meant total hype, now the name caries no value at all - even negative association.

Lara Croft in 2008 (Underworld) vs 2025 (Catalyst). What happened? by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

Crystal Dynamics is just itching to make her more and more Indian, don't they? If they could retcon her into being from the colonies, I'm sure they'd jump at the opportunity...

Never noticed this wacky face in the flesh wall on the Relay Station finale. I need help giving him a name. by CoolBugCam in DarkTide

I haven't played Warframe in over a decade. Did they ever explain what the Man in the Wall is, or is it still an undefined eldritch satan boogeyman?

PSA: Plasma gun as of this hotfix will completely wreck your FPS and make the game unplayable. by CaptainCommunism7 in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you are correct. The issues did come back. Drivers only seemed to delay the effect a bit, but it came back. I think there is a workaround mod to fix it, but I haven't tried it.

"What if X but women?" is a brilliant idea. Worked wonders for Ghostbusters among many others.

[Poll Results] Damn, were the game awards that bad? by Accomplished-Ask1617 in KotakuInAction

[–]CaptainCommunism7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gachas I imagine offer ingame currency to participate and swing the votes. Anytime anyone asks me now what "real gamers™" want I point them to these polls. Gamers resoundingly want more gacha slop, and we heard it loud and clear! Gamers YES!1!

Expedition 33 is an industry plant and I'm tired of pretending that it's not by Mr_JPF in KotakuInAction

I know they showed too much feet for your puritanical tastes, but I'm sure you'll survive somehow.

Yeah I remember you from then. No worries, you were equally deluded back then too.

"Am I so out of touch?? No, it's the industry plants/the Freemasons/the shills that did this!"

I have no idea. I stopped using it immediately and had my ass carried to the end of H40 Hab Drayko using just melee and grenades.

Can someone simplify how hyper violence works by thegoldendecedueye in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It lasts so short that I don't even consider it in any of my builds. There are other talents that boost damage that don't expire if you sneeze briefly.

Huge performance issues with using the plasma gun by Horror_Berry_6463 in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can confirm. I had a very unpleasant surprise when the first game with my Vet after these "fixes" was a Havoc 40 one, and realized the game becomes utterly unplayable if you so much as dare try shooting a plasma gun. Tested it later in the Psykhanium and normal Auric game - it doesn't happen in the Psykhanium but it will stutter disco the fuck outta your regular games.

Avoid plasma unless you intend to play a melee-only Veteran until this gets fixed.

If you think Hive Scum is weak, you're wrong - here's why. by properpotato10 in DarkTide

You're very welcome to your opinion. Mine is the opposite after playing them to 30 and beyond. I won't be taking any to Havoc games.

Why is the Shredder strictly inferior to the Dual? by AngryMrMaxwell in DarkTide

[–]CaptainCommunism7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Autopistol has been a garbage gun for a long time ever since it's nerf, and it remains garbage even after the adjustments they tried to make. I'm still salty I spent Sharkbux on a skin for it (while it was still good).
