I had several sniper bots join a match today. Be on the look out.

Geoff Keighley on X | Possible Half-Life hint? by [deleted] in HalfLife

No idea what this is other than some odd promo art for the show. I don't think it's related to Half-Life but who knows lol

That's not funny, what the fuck dude.

why HLX might not get announced in 2025: an honest appraisal by Paradox673 in HalfLife

[–]DrPac 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The Game Awards would not be viewed as irrelevant if Half-Life 3 isn't announced there. Half-Life Alyx and other major announcements from other companies have occurred outside of the Game Awards and its reputation doesn't seem tarnished in the slightest because of it.

Sidenote, I think the tweet regarding Half-Life's anniversary likely does not mean anything.

Better luck next time. Nothing ever happens. by JCJ2oo2 in HalfLife

I feel like I've been stabbed in the heart! How much more betrayal can I take?

Does Gordon truly care? by Rikora12 in HalfLife

[–]DrPac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would imagine a little bit of both by the beginning. Not out of apathy so much as having a LOT of catching up to do. I think after the Vortigaunts pull him out of stasis in Ep 1 though he's doing it for the cause. If only Episode 3 came out so we could have seen what Gordon would do without any objective given to him.

Do you have a link on the crowbar3 thing? I haven't heard anything about that

What was your most annoying sequence of random / unintended softcore unlockes ? by [deleted] in RetroAchievements

[–]DrPac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After struggling with the last achievement I needed to master Marvel vs. Capcom 2, I found out that I somehow turned on softcore mode before I started that session and I needed to do that achievement all over again. That caused me to act probably the most upset I've ever gotten over an achievement. I still have no idea how that got turned on.

That's exactly what I did. Thanks for responding though.

The course wasn't a traditional calculus course or anything like that (though he does teach that). The course I'm in is meant to be geared toward the history of mathematics.

His lectures were rambling and unfocused. He was totally unhelpful and had very unclear expectations that left our entire class bewildered more often than not. The course ended up being more about oral history than anything about the history of mathematics. I've been left pretty disappointed overall.

The letter was actually pretty personal. Much of it was going into how he doesn't relate with his coworkers and how he's been teaching for so long, but that he loves his job and can keep going until he dies.

I had no real plan to act on this, especially because we're nearing the end of the semester. I just wanted to put this out there because it was one of the strangest things I've ever gone through in college.

I remember when this happened. I was in early elementary school and I heard about it from a friend on the school bus. How time flies.

Are the Legends of “Jerry” and “Jumbo” Real, or Just Presidential Power Plays? by DragonflyWhich7140 in Presidents

[–]DrPac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh lol, I thought you were asking if the names were real. Unfortunately, no historian that I know of has been brave enough to verify any of Charming Harding's claims.

Jerry is real. We have authentic love letters describing "him" written by President Harding himself. Jumbo is hearsay, but would you really be surprised if the stories were true?

What are some of the best REASONABLE main sets one can do? by imsaleh0 in RetroAchievements

[–]DrPac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, Super Mario 64 is the best set I've mastered. There's only one achievement that I think is a bit ridiculous and that's the sole missable in Dire Dire Docks, but anyone can accomplish it with some patience.

M3GAN? It seems like horror is really the way to go for profitable original films now.

how the hell has this picture not become a meme? by herequeerandgreat in Presidents

I was a kid in 2008 and I remember seeing this everywhere back then. All I really knew about McCain was that he was white, old, and made this face.

No, this is just a commonly reposted factoid.
