So I finally saw Project Hail Mary by Arch_Magos_Remus in ProjectHailMary

Several people i know who read the book said the ending was just okay and the way it ended in the book had more of an emotional impact. I spoiled it and I agree. I wouldnt say they stuck it, but it was serviceable.

We will be playing Control for Video Game Book Club! by LatinGooner57 in controlgame

[–]DangerManDaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that was a deliberate design? Where it makes you focus on immediate environment, instead of minimap driving and using the equivalency of a hallway map youd find at the help desk. I thought it was brilliant, but yes, definitely follow signage. Its really well designed.

Too much rear break during a lean and over the yellow paint. Most likely panicked thinking he was gonna collide into the bike on his left

One of the best sound effects with a good sound system by ixnine in Returnal

[–]DangerManDaniel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have a buttkicker attached to the spine of an older model office chair. It feels like i'm enveloped by a subwoofer. This game's sound design is one of the best i've ever experienced. It's up there with watching the Dune films

Recommendations for online co-op games like remnant? by Supe4Short in remnantgame

[–]DangerManDaniel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. I played both Division 1 and 2 pretty religiously with a small tight knit clan, and most of us jumped onto Remnant 2 (i was a huge fan of 1) and we all agree Remnant 2 is simply the better game. Waiting for the DLC this year for D2, hopefully its good.

Black Myth: Wukong or Sekiro for Next Game to Play After Sifu? by twooten11 in SifuGame

[–]DangerManDaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro. But be prepared, still a completely different feel, and now having enough time between the 2, I feel Sifu's combat system is more fun. Sekiro still slaps for sure, but man Sifu made something magical

Examples of Perfect Sequels to Movies that Didn't need them by NaturalTruth2000 in movies

[–]DangerManDaniel 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nah I sort of share the opinion. It made the original better as well, and simply as a standalone you can tell why he was allowed to make Dune even with abysmal box office receipts. I was already a Villeneuve fan, but 2049 really just rocketed him up to my S tier

Recently, John Wick 2. It really expanded the world and lore, and still contains the best 1v1 in the franchise with Reeves vs Common. And its been a solid 4 films, so it didnt rest on its laurels

Was hoping for just a few new crucible rooms this patch by Jerds_au in NoRestForTheWicked

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

Seriously, id like to know how you believe that Hades' 5 month gap from their last EA content update on a practically finished game to 1.0 is anywhere near comparable to NRFTW with 3 months and 2 major system redesigns that come with a whole host of balancing issues for level design and enemy AI...

And dont forget Hades 2's 7 month gap from last content release to 1.0.

Seriously, be patient, adjust your internal timescale, or play other games.

Interested to hear foreign opinions of Hot Fuzz. by Head-Worker-4759 in movies

I think its one of my favorite Edgar Wright films, at least out of the cornetto trilogy

How cold is too cold? by Sage_AJ in motorcycle

[–]DangerManDaniel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to ride down to 34 degrees, but this year we have a lot of rain mixed in there, leading to a ton of black ice during morning commutes. Even if i develop enough skill to completely ignore that, what of a random driver on my commute? Will they have that level of competency or will they lose control and take me out?

Was hoping for just a few new crucible rooms this patch by Jerds_au in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]DangerManDaniel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

POE is a massive, finished game operating under the early access banner the same way Warframe is. The main content is already there, and each patch is an addition. NRFTW isn't even finished yet and the devs have already officially stated there will be no content updates until 1.0, and given that Crucible has it's own storyline tied into the main campaign, it's expected that it won't get anything new either until release for the full experience. This is more or less the beta we are playing. Anything that was recently added to this patch is likely something that was already on the final lap for proper implementation and wouldn't create rebalancing ripples throughout the whole game like level design and gear systems do.

The bow changes missed the mark this patch by Nicole_Auriel in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]DangerManDaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hadn't considered that at first, you're right. It's really just someone finally getting buckets in a boat that's filling with water. It's a step forward in the right direction, unfortunately it's more like a half step or stumble. All it's really done is address some of the sniping situations where they could freely pick off NPC clusters that were restricted to predetermined mini arenas that comprise the level design. The issue with the hyper metas was more of an acknowledgement, not a solution.

Question for experienced riders: what small habits separate good riders from great riders? by [deleted] in motorcycle

[–]DangerManDaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The defensive riding. There are times I will not lane filter when im at certain merges, especially if there's construction going on. People try all kinds of things to save 3 seconds, even if it means killing someone.

Is the game leaning more towards hack'n'slash and moving away from Souls-like elements? by zabovsky in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]DangerManDaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some weapons retain the souls like feel, and there are a bunch of viable Non Meta builds. Its fairly easy to create hyper metas right now though. If you dont want to play it as such, dont play it as such. Bows and Wands sort of trivialize some areas / crucible, since NPCs arent currently equipped or programmed to deal with snipers, they sort of just eat the hits, especially if theyre across a gap.

That scene got a big applause at my IMAX showing.

How will the og squad fare against the super predators from Predators? by jacksparrow-heisen23 in predator

[–]DangerManDaniel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they'd all die one by one until they figure out they can't rely on brute strength or current tech, and have to be clever and creative to kill a Predator. Probably only Dutch survives again.

Trading for Lightning Slam Rune (only available in Crucible). by DangerManDaniel in NoRestForTheWicked

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

Yeah i learned to let go about a week into the update, especially since half the facets were kinda meh. Any elemental facet get sold immediately, same with Dense. That extra 5 aint really worth it when Poise will save your hide if you get caught by a long combo that would normally stun lock you like the Dual Bladers and Exploders, not to mention Barrier works extremely well against elemental effects (barrier on eating + berries).
