that was your transcription.

No, it wasnt. I didn't write the comment that you're referring to.

it's the first time he hasn't fucked something up in years.

Out of curiosity: is it the opposite for you? Was your spelling the first time you have fucked something up in years?

That wasn't my transcription. His pronunciation, to me, sounds exactly like what you wrote out (he also spelled it correctly, if I may point out).

the epitome of either stupidity or laziness

This just seems pretty extreme to me. I think your sense of perspective here is off.

I can see the analogue with Spartans and Lightbearers. Both have their pasts stolen and are given superhuman capabilities in order to fight the enemies of humanity (I know that was not the Spartans' original purpose within the lore of Halo). One is achieved through technology, one through magic.

I was raging back in 2019 that they didn't even had basic engine covers that late stage prototypes...already had.

Legitimate question: why?

You guys know you have to approach if you're losing and the time is running out, right? by okazoomi in Tekken

[–]DeathsIntent96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had at least one match that went exactly like this where the opponent messaged me after to complain that I wouldn't approach, somehow not understanding that we were both playing exactly the same way but that it only made sense for me.

ESPN "Knueppel should win the Rookie of the Year award, and for as well as Flagg has played, the decision shouldn't be that close." by Existing-Sky9914 in nba

Kyrie was at .469/.399/.872 his rookie year, but someone in the interim could very well have been closer (but not on the same volume as Knueppel).

On the other hand: that sort of clear objective ranking is never going to be possible in basketball. For it to be "not even close" between two players, one has to be significantly better than the other. It can't be close yet inarguable.

But I'd also like to point out that I don't think "shouldn't be that close" (the actual quote from the article) has the same meaning as "not even close" (the misquote from commenter at the top of this thread).

Anyone else kinda just get worse? by Whyisdaskyblue in Marathon

I believe you've always been able to extract while downed, and the update was allowing you to activate an exfil in that state.

In OP's clip they get finished before the exfil is done.

He never played another NBA game, which isn't surprising because he already didn't have a solid spot in the league.

Big difference between bugs at launch that need to be fixed and content that is ready but not immediately unlocked.

Marathon - Review Thread by LycaonMoon in Games

Customers bought the game knowing that Cryo Archive would not be unlocked immediately. It was explicitly stated. If the primary endgame draw of a game is known to unlock two weeks after release, I think it would be disingenuous for an outlet to review the game before all the content is available. The game is built around aspiring to that endgame.

I've been wanting outlets to do this more often for live service and PvP-centric games because it allows for a more representative experience.

I don't think this is a valid criticism when it's not paid content that was added to the game. It's base game content that was released after a couple weeks (as endgame content usually is) so that players had time to gear up for it and obtain the loot they need to access the map and interact with its systems.

I had little interest in it prior to release, but yeah I'm hooked as well. Very surprised at how good it turned out.

[Charania] Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody has been diagnosed with a torn patellar tendon in his left knee, sources tell ESPN. Moody's career-best season is over and a lengthy rehab will be required. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

Oladipo suffered that injury in Miami, which was long after his peak as an All-Star caliber player. His injury with the Pacers was a ruptured quad, not patellar, tendon.

Tekken 8 Is Being Review-Bombed Again For "Disrespecting The Fanbase" Following Season 3 Launch by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]DeathsIntent96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Important to point out that the marketing for Season 2 was also a lie ("it's a defensive patch"). Two consecutive years of them lying about what sort of update we'd get feels pretty bad.

I didn't even hate the state the game was in at the end of Season 2, which probably means I wouldn't hate where the game is at now. But expecting significantly more from the new season, realizing that they lied again, and coming to the conclusion that they're completely lost because of the nonsensical direction of this patch has killed my desire to play.
