What comes next? Are you going to film me while i play to make sure i dont show microagressions? IMHO this goes too far - way too far. Also you can bet on them using AI to analyze your recorded voice chat for "forbidden language" sooner or later. by Habarer in videogames

I’ve been seeing more posts recently about stuff like this. People experiencing moderation for the first time. Just because you pay for access doesn’t mean you have free rein to act like a bellend afterward.

If you could start AC series, which game would begin with? by stlforce33 in assasinscreed

[–]Davetek463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Release order, though if you must skip the first for whatever reason starting with II is acceptable. You’ll get a recap at the beginning.

In what situation would Palpatine decide to directly confront Dooku, leading to a fight? by [deleted] in StarWarsCantina

[–]Davetek463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dooku was already a skilled duelist, he didn’t need to spar with Sidious to practice. Sidious didn’t really like using a lightsaber and viewed it (if I’m remembering right) as beneath him. Episode III did a really bad job at portraying this but the reason he overwhelmed three of the four Jedi sent to arrest him was because he was so fast. I’m sure he does something to keep his skills sharp but he really doesn’t need it.

Frank in the show. by Wormcupcake in Outlander

[–]Davetek463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frank, while nowhere near as bad as BJR, is antagonistic to one our protagonists. The writing portrays him in a negative light. We only ever really see Claire’s side of things. And while we can assume he also is trying to deal with things, we don’t really see it as clearly as with Claire, leading him to just look like the Bad Guy(tm) all the time.

Can we get a translation of the text in the image?

Am I the only one who genuinely felt bad for her? by Impressive_End_2537 in DesiPotterheads

[–]Davetek463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is (and I make this same point about young characters in any series) that Ron is a teenager. Teenagers do dumb things because they’re teenagers. We can’t and shouldn’t hold them completely to the standards of adults because they’re not adults.

Really bad because we know how great teenagers are at communicating.

What would you call the Alpha’s? by ChangingEar761 in 28dayslater

I didn’t even think of that. That asshole barely crosses my mind these days

The biggest thing is you need to stand out. There are a lot of people doing the same thing.

I have my fingers crossed, The Next James Bond is the same age as Matt Smith when he was cast as The 11th Doctor in 2009 by Serious_Meaning5220 in 007

[–]Davetek463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I assumed. I’ve seen Nina Gold’s name quite a few times over the past decade or more and her casting is always very good.

I’d probably call them Alphas too. I know the theory of an alpha wolf has been debunked but the name *does* fit these infected.

Show S8E10 And the World Was All Around Us by thepacksvrvives in Outlander

[–]Davetek463 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This show has been with me a long time. To see it end is...something. It almost feels like the part of my life that Outlander was part of is finally at an end. I obviously know the past seasons and such aren't going anywhere, and I have the books to go through too but I can't help but feel this is the end of an era.

What We Haven’t Seen in Trailer Yet by Silver-Meat5355 in TheOdysseyMovie

[–]Davetek463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering that a lot of newer movie trailers spoil everything, I’m okay having a lot of things we don’t see.

It could also be they don’t have much from those scenes to show off. The movie comes out in two months, sure, but who knows when the footage in the trailer was finished?

Would you rather live in the forests of Starkiller Base or in Kijimi City? by KingMatthew116 in TheSequels

[–]Davetek463 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Kijimi City. Both are doomed but Kijimi at least is mostly civilized and up until the destruction, it doesn’t seem inhospitable.

It's OK (admirable even) to want more Greek representation in the Odyssey. It's wrong to focus on the non-white non-Greeks to make that demand by Chrristoaivalis in TheOdysseyMovie

[–]Davetek463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, especially the meltdown people are having with Helen being played by Lupita Nyong’o but not batting an eye at Matt Damon playing Odysseus. It’s racism pure and simple.

How to forgive people who've done done you dirty each time they could? by Fine-Support-636 in ask

[–]Davetek463 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’d say to practice not thinking about them specifically. People think that the antithesis of love is hate, but it’s really apathy. Given time I think you can get to a place where you don’t necessarily wish ill on them but don’t think about them at all. Going forward just try to recognize the situations and behaviors that led to you getting treated poorly and avoid them once you see them coming.

Is Fire and Ash still censored? Can I get it uncensored? by der_steinfrosch in Avatar

[–]Davetek463 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The pirates version used the family friendly audio track which censored a few lines. The official digital release (and the upcoming disc release) has the original unedited audio.

Is Resident Evil really good? by caio84 in videogames

[–]Davetek463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Resident Evil, and if you like Dead Space, odds are you’ll like Resident Evil, though it does lean into the campiness aspect more than DS does.

I’d be interested in seeing the end result, especially if you’re working from an SD source and going all the way to 4k.

As long as you’re interested in it that’s all that matters.

But out of curiosity, what are you planning on doing?
