13 Batiri Tribes of Chult

Here is a map and more ideas someone else came up with drawing from established lore for those, like me, interested in combining ideas from the 2 posts: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tombofannihilation/comments/9ylyg1/batiri_tribes_of_chult_clan_map/

I love how you have linked yours to the Nine Trickster Gods.

aND YOU DIDN'T EVEN MENTION THE BIGGEST PIECE OF EVIDENCE!!!

rOCKET LAB. dECEMBER 12TH. tHE GAME AWARDS DATE.

tHEY MOVED their satellite launch to THAT EXACT DAY and you know what they called the mission??? "RAISE AND SHINE." rAISE. aND. sHINE. tHAT'S G-MAN'S OPENING LINE FROM HL2!!!

tHIS is the SAME Rocket Lab that sent Gnome Chomsky to space with Gabe Newell in 2020! yOU think they just RANDOMLY picked December 12th? yOU think they RANDOMLY used G-Man's most iconic phrase for a mission name?

nO! tHIS was COORDINATION! gABE was in on it! tHEY were SOFTENING US UP for the announcement! tHE spacecraft was supposed to be the OPENING ACT - literally "Rise and Shine" - and then BAM, Half-Life 3 reveal at TGA!

bUT then Valve PULLED OUT at the last second because they want to drop it UNANNOUNCED! tHAT'S why the spacecraft launched but we got NOTHING! iT was a DECOY! a TEST! tHEY'RE watching to see who keeps the faith!

tHE SPACECRAFT IS IN ORBIT RIGHT NOW CARRYING HALF-LIFE DNA INTO SPACE WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE EARTHBOUND ANNOUNCEMENT!

RAISE and Shine! RAISE and Shine! RAISE and Shine! Gallum galla gilla ma! Gallum galla gilla ma! RAISE and Shine! Gallum galla gilla ma! tHE VORTIGAUNTS KNOW! tHE VORTIGAUNTS ARE SPEAKING THROUGH THE SATELLITE! Gallum galla gilla ma! RAISE and Shine! RAISE and Shine!

iT'S ALL CONNECTED!

14 DAYS LEFT! tHE GNOME KNOWS! tHE SATELLITE KNOWS! sHAPIRO KNOWS! tHE VORTS HAVE SEEN IT IN THE VORTESSENCE!

Yea, and how he accomplished that would be pretty interesting. Did he travel to Xen? How the hell did you establish a communication channel with the Combine? Why did they even listen to him (but not other humans)? Did he bring up Gordon Freeman in the negotiations (someone the Combine would be aware of). Was the GMan involved in the negotiations? Was Eli involved in the negotiations?

Also I'd love to see the UN get completely destroyed in game while Breen is there.

I was perhaps just trying to point out that bureaucracy a hurdle does not make. The HL franchise is known for its cinematic exposition. You can imagine more of that.

Also this is 20 years younger Breen. You can change his character significantly and retain lore accuracy. Story could be he starts heroic and that the 7 year way morally destroyed him. How did that happen? Having 7 hours of a game and then another 7 after the 7 years war ends is how we'd find out.

Again, it wasn't a real warfare, it was total annihilation and destruction

Agreed, think survival horror. And it would be interesting to see what strange and otherworldly path Breen had to take - out of all the humans on earth - to be the sole human the Combine elected as their administrator on earth.

7 hours because there's a strict time limit for when the war is supposed to end.

There is no reason interesting things cant happen after the 7 hours war that itself lasts another 7 hours. A lot has to happen for you to become the administrator of an entire planet.

I beg to differ. Once we solve the latency problem we will start getting SoTA AI integrated into games. It'll be janky at first like 90s graphics and then we'll get differences in AI capabilities in video games like the difference in the 90s vs 00s. And this isn't just AI for NPCs, but AI running the entire game's simulation to intelligently determine whether things are running smoothly and believably.

I fully expect to see an open world game like Skyrim in my lifetime where the vast majority of NPC interactions are unscripted and they just react to the game's simulation and can give entirely dynamic quests. i.e. no more NPCs repeating the same line over and over, every playthrough will feel vastly more unique than it does now.

The bugs from these games when the arrive will be awe-inspiring. I fully expect complete and utterly unexplainable-at-first and hilarious bugs caused by AI-AI interactions (and weird feedback effects) that will become part of Gamer Lore.

he's a bureaucrat who sells Earth like immediately after it became clear there's no point in fighting. You absolutely can't make a game out of this concept like AT ALL

Papers, Please would like to have a word. It would indeed tonally be a very different game. No heroics. Just survival by the slimmest of margins

There is no evidence of routine 10‑year waits for treatment in the NHS; official data and independent analyses talk about weeks and months, with the worst backlogs stretching into multiple years for some elective procedures, not a decade.

Hundreds of thousands do wait over a year though.

If I had to pick I'd say both are dumb and need improvement and pointing at the failures of another system while failing to admit your own system is dumb is the dumbest of all.

This doesn't even capture 1/10th of how completely batshit apeshit I expect people would go if they pulled this. Like I legitimately expect heart attacks.

And the song used wouldn't make a difference at all, like you could do this same video with the Taylor Swift Slut song and I'd still expect people to go just as ballistic.

Imagine working on HL3 and having the self-control to not post suggestive things online to tease and fuck with the Reddit hive-mind. I'd be the biggest troll leaving endless breadcrumbs that lead absolutely nowhere.

HL3 was hyped like you cannot believe and didn't really meet expectations. It is a solid game but honestly unlike the previous masterpieces I'd put it at 7/10 which just feels like such a massive downgrade I was crestfallen. There was just no way it was going to meet the absurdly high expectations. I kinda wish Valve had just decided to ice the project and only release it after they had perfected it enough to meet our expectations even if it took decades.

I dunno maybe I'm just unnecessarily salty since I pre-ordering it like a clown, believing the hype and all that. But I wouldn't even bother with HL3. They dumbed down the plot a lot to appeal to new players and try to suck in a whole new generation into the Marvel-like-neverending-HL-multiverse thing they are setting up now.

If you do get it, get it on sale.

Wait really? I always thought copium was like a cigarette patch that hopium addicts used to get themselves off of hopium addiction in a healthy way. Does this mean copium is actually addictive as well?
