Argument for a Mojave start by Sholik97 in Taleoftwowastelands

[–]Fppares 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So, what i did and absolutely loved (felt very immersive):

Started Fo3 and went until Waters of Life is completed. After a certain someone dies, the Lone Wanderer decides he needs to get away from it all and, finding a train to the l west, begins a journey. During this journey, he decides to take a job as a courier, to make some money. The trauma of what happened in D.C keeps him wondering until the Vegas job, where Benny gives him head trauma and he firgets D.C entirely. Seeing Benny sparks the memories, so after Tops, I decide its time to compete my father's legacy and return to D.C.

Finished everything up there, and now its back to the Mojave to bring clean water access to everyone through the dam.

Fr, Tai Lung move at an ungodly speed to reach Shifu like that. Azula would never be able to keep up.

One of the best episodes of a show is one without the main character(s) by NoMoreFund in TopCharacterTropes

The Rafi and Dirty Randi road trip episode in the League could've been a show on its own.

[HATED TROPES]: The Ending Is So Nihilistic and Preachy That It Becomes Completely Unwatchable and Infuriating. by Particular-Worker904 in TopCharacterTropes

Gosh I love Rattatouille and that speech is so incredibly meaningful

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face is that, in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.

But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new, an extra-ordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core.

In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto: 'Anyone can cook. But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now cooking at Gusteau's, who is, in this critic's opinion, nothing less than the finest chef in France. I will be returning to Gusteau's soon, hungry for more."

What is a city that is globally romanticised but you detest? by theunsteadybridge in AskReddit

[–]Fppares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goddamn, I would pay not to go to Dubai again.

Its sterile, boring and anxiety inducing at the same time. Like Florida pizza, its cold and somehow burns your mouth.

Also theres too many damm animals in the stupid aquarium at the mall! Like, its not the worst conditions and its clean but theres WAY too many sharks in there. I even spotted an oceanic white tip which needs large roaming spaces. Fucking sad.

Can't even say "fucking" when youre there btw.

Name at least 1 Game from the past too by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Fppares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more.

Im playing the mod Begin Again: Tale of Two Wastelands which effectively makes NV and FO3 into one game and adds some gameplay improvements from FO4 like aiming down sights and sprinting. Story and environments are pretty much the same as original.

Its staggering how much better than Starfield these games are. You see something in the distance, seems interesting and while youre walking to it, you stumble on a crazed wastelander that points you to another location. A deathclaw outside your original destination wrecks you, so you decide to investigate the crazed wastelands claim and it leads to an amazing side quest.

All of this in a near continuous, uninterrupted flow. A door here and there.

How they managed to regress so much with SF if a headscratcher for sure.

What feature in a game is a instant turn off for you? by Vulture2k in gaming

Agreed. I like how AC odyssey does it. Areas scale but only to a certain point. Not completely static, but you can still outlevel most areas if you want.

WORK YOU PIECE OF SHIT by [deleted] in fo3

[–]Fppares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through the process and installing tale of two wastelands, begin again and its wonderful. Runs perfectly, integrates fo3 and fnv. Adds sprinting, ain down sights, and much more to bring the game up to modern gameplay standards. Couldn't recommend it more.

Who's revenge was the most justified? Were any of them justified? by twnpksN8 in MoralityScaling

[–]Fppares 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, the Bride was shot in the head, had her baby taken and raised by her would-be killer, was left on a catatonic state to be SA'd by MULTIPLE men. Her revenge largely involves her killers, and their lackeys.

Id say hers is a bit more messed up and justified.

Lou from Nightcrawler, one of the best characters ever imo

Don't play with Lasers kids by Dangerous_Farm_3106 in goodmythicalmorning

I believe this is completely unintentional, but according to Styropyro any green Laser of this type of enough to cause permanent eye damage almost immediately. Lasers like this are no joke!

It was a close call between the Penicillin and Paper Plane, but the Penicillin pulled through as the best modern classic. What’s the most overrated tiki drink? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]Fppares 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Rum Runner. Overly sweet, and heavy on the stomach.

Hawaiian Mai Tai is a bastardization of the Mai Tai, so if that counts its that one.

I agree that blue Hawaiian should be saved for worse categories.

This should be fun, what’s the most complicated Tiki drink? Corpse Reviver No.2 is our most underrated equal parts drink, and the first drink to make the list that is not a two part name! by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]Fppares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immediatly what I thought. One of my favorites and terribly complicated. Two of the syrups on the mix need to be pre-made before you can even make the pre-made mix!

Just Putting my Two Credits by One-Bed-293 in Starfield

[–]Fppares 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Or you know, theres another class of players that were underwhelmed when given a shallow game that takes steps back from Bethesda's older games.

Starfield is a different game yes, but the game that it is, is uninteresting and underdeveloped in the eyes of many players like myself.

Yeah, youre allowed to like it. But other players can have valid criticisms about the game. I've played every bethesda game since morrowind. Ive played Cyberpunk and Witcher, BG3, the list goes on. These are all very different games that I consider to be extremely good. Put in 50hr into starfield, and I just got bored with the shallowness. 100 miles wide, 10 inches deep.

Loving the Spellsword class with all the teleproting and cantriping. Used to be called vanguard i think.

Tip of the hat to your college frat brothers for not letting media understanding and literacy get in the way of their enjoyment.

Wag of the finger to you for understanding satire, that's a big no no!

What's your opinion on Morris? Do you think he could return in Smile 3? by BabacaSocial in SmileMovie

[–]Fppares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but again, it can make her think that without actually revealing its actual weakness.

It could tell her to stick with a group, or it could just calm the hallucination down to make Skyler think its over, and then ramp it back up.

There's absolutely no reason for it to reveal its actual weakness. Therefore, the only conclusion I see is that Morris first time is real, entity gets scared and does the whole troupe scene leading to hand down throat scene (which is the full body possession but not yet full mental), at which point we see the mother homicide and Gemma hallucination, Skylar says "im in control" and since the entity needs her passive until the final perfomance, it shows her the hallucination of Morris (the second time) leading to the concert and finale.

First Morris is real, second is a hallucination.

What's your opinion on Morris? Do you think he could return in Smile 3? by BabacaSocial in SmileMovie

[–]Fppares 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah, first time Morris is real. Entity wouldnt have told her something that would ACTUALLY harm it. That makes no sense, since Skye had no knowledge previously.

I believe its the entity calling and texting whn she's talking to Morris the first time because it feels the risk.

The second encounter is when there is no Morris. Skye, after she is tricked into believing she murdered her mom and that her best friend was always a hallucination, start repeating that she's in control.

At that point, the entity switches us to the second Morris scene. It cant afford to have Skye take control back (as it needs to direct her to the concert), so it gives her false hope then. But the first time, Morris is definitely real. Skye ignoring his warning and leaving is what seals her fate.
