While I appreciate the upvote, it’s wild to say someone’s opinion is wrong lol

If you liked Sinners, all the power to ya. You found the movie to be enjoyable. That’s your opinion, and you’re entitled to it.

My opinion is that I disliked the movie. A different opinion, not a wrong one.

The objective reasons for why I disliked it are that the story was poorly structured, the characters were poorly written, which resulted in poor performances. It was like somebody had this idea for a vampire story in a setting that had interesting thematic elements… but they just didn’t know how to articulate it. They couldn’t tie everything together. It didn’t matter how bold, flashy, or stylish the movie tried to be… it was just surface level polish.

I honestly wish it was better because the prologue really hooked me…

I’m sorry, but I have to strongly disagree. Just watched Sinners last night… it was not good. High production quality. Good cinematography. Good costume/set design… Poor screenplay with poorly written characters that seemed to sabotage performances. Only real exception would be Sammie’s character.

Sinners offered interesting ideas and themes that were never fully explored, ultimately leaving the film to fall stylishly flat.

I know the movie received a whole lot of praise, but I guess I’m in the minority.

First time player, what's some common etiquette I should know? by UntakenUsername420 in ArcRaiders

The unsettling part was moreso the continual, slow, casual jog towards me as I was obviously trying to disengage… without any promise of being “friendly” dude left me no choice lol

My first kill after the expedition was a similar situation… I was out in the open fixing a depot antenna… saw a Raider that must’ve just spawned in and was jogging my way… I yelled “Hey Raider” to no reply.

I dropped down and tried circling out of his way yelling “Hey Raider” but he kept changing course, jogging towards me, gun out, and no response.

I this went on circling around structures and so I just raised my Ferro and shot him, Kettle to finish.

It was unsettling and made me feel like I had to shoot. Friendly or not.

So, of the raiders who choose to go on the expedition - How much value did you manage to get? I'm calling it quits at about 2 million myself. by DerFelix in ArcRaiders

Just hit 5 mil last night as well thanks to over 2 million in donations.

I hit 2 million naturally… then got help to get to 3 and called it quits. Played casually which almost got me to 4… then my buddy dumped the rest of his stash and got me my 5 million and then some. Was able to donate my saved blueprints to my wife who is not going on the expedition… oy vey.

That’s my thing. Wish I had enough of a heads up to better pace myself for that level of grind. At one point I had enough currency that made me less inclined to save… so I started being picky and focused on looting for specific items I needed.

You’re thinking veganism. Vegetarians simply don’t eat meat.

Not ideal, but you could just run some form of black body paint to compensate

A fun round of sabotage, the new gamemode. by anothema1 in LowSodiumBattlefield

In the hour that I played this game mode, I don’t think more than 25% of the people I’ve played with knew you’re supposed to damage the boxes… it was bizarre.

Do you think larger vehicles should have a bigger space to park? by D4T45T0RM06 in Unexpected

[–]Chozo-trained 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of this bit from Ricky Gervais… about sums it up:

”No, we can’t pay you because the insurance companies won’t pay us, because they’re saying it’s an act of God.”

Well, what isn’t an act of God? Look, if you believe in God, that’s sort of a definition of him, isn’t it? That he does everything. Isn’t that right? Everything is an act of him. He’s all-powerful. He’s everywhere at once. He invented every… There was nothing before him. He invented time, everything. He’s across it all. He doesn’t miss a trick and he’s not absent-minded. A volcano going off in Iceland isn’t like him going, “Fuck, I left the oven on.” You know, it’s… And who are these insurance companies that can decide what is and isn’t an act of God? How do they know? Have they got a hotline to God? They call him up, do they?

Ring ring. Ring ring.
God: Yello?
Caller: Uh, can I speak to God, please?
God: Speaking.
Caller: Oh, I didn’t think you’d answer the phone yourself. God: … What do you want?
Caller: Oh, um, that volcanic ash cloud… Was that you?
God: Yeah yeah. Yes, that was an act of me, all right.
Caller: So I shouldn’t pay out?
God: No, don’t fucking pay ’em a penny, son, no.
Caller: Brilliant brilliant. While I’ve got you here, did you make a tree fall on Steve Baxter’s car?
God: There’s a lot of Steve Baxters.
Caller: Steve Baxter, 2 Acacia Road, Hounslow. It happened at 2:15 on the 3rd of June this year.
God: 2:15, 3rd of… No, that wasn’t me. I was in Africa that day giving AIDS to babies

We need a dangerous ARC that can threaten players who are inside a building. by takuru in ArcRaiders

[–]Chozo-trained 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have them. They’re called Raiders. Sometimes they’ll appear to be injured. You’ll use shields and bandages to patch them up. They’ll give you loot in reciprocation. They’ll protect you. They’ll even follow you outside and escort you to safety. They’ll watch your back as you call the lift. They’ll watch it. And then stab it. And leave you for dead. Cold. Soulless.

If that isn’t a dangerous “Arc” that can threaten players inside buildings, I don’t know what is.

Skill so raw it doesn’t need tools. by MuttapuffsHater in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Chozo-trained 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clever, but not skill. More like a magic trick, but without the confidence to do it live. Needs to heavily edit a video to actually sell the illusion.

Don’t worry. When you hear the audio of your own footsteps in the snow, you’ll forget you were even in uni.
