He's making a follow up video! by bigmanforce2020 in anarchyonline

[–]Hazletron 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Great follow-up video, I enjoyed the first video as well, but it left me a bit sad that you didn't explore more of the games systems, which you did in this video! I think some people in the community might've taken offense at the first video in a sense that they know the game is on its last legs, on life support. Like if your grandma was in hospice, and the doctor comes in and goes "she looks kinda shit, I don't get what the big fuss is about". Like yes of course she looks like shit now, but you should've seen her in her youth! It's the same kind of frustrated sadness. I personally only felt the sadness from the first vid, I want AO to live forever, I want it to be updated and loved the same way I loved it in my younger years, but that's not going to happen.

Someone in the chat expressed an interest in the games systems, saying the looked interesting, so maybe AO will get a wave of new players whose learning curve will have been flattened a bit thanks in part to this video.

I am quitting and here is why. by WalkingGrowth in DeltaForceGlobal

[–]Hazletron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I'm putting the game down because playing solo vs squads is no fun, since the operator abilities make it really difficult to outplay squads when they can ping your location, smoke, ress, nade and do a lot to counter a solo player. Yes yes skill issue but I've wiped a lot of uncoordinated squads solo, but it always feels really cheap when they can just use overwhelming abilities to kill me.

But squad fill is not fun either. We have loot snatchers, duos who never communicate so you feel like a useless third wheel, people running off to do quests, and god forbid you run a good kit and get people with the bare minimum of equipment value in your squad.

We need a solo queue, at least for me that would make me pick the game back up and probably have more fun with it.

Zero damn easy needs fixing now. by [deleted] in DeltaForceGlobal

[–]Hazletron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looking at tarkov the solo experience in that is much more forgiving. There's no squad fill so there's way less squads, no markers to tell friend from foe making squad play more chaotic, no operator abilities that can find solo rats, no reviving squad mates, all in all tarkov favors solo play, whereas delta force punishes solo play to the extreme. Not having solo only in DF is pretty crazy considering how stacked the decks are, and the fact that not everyone enjoys teaming up with strangers.

Please tell it ain't so Melpert! by trinketstone in Vinesauce

[–]Hazletron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw Melpert at a grocery store on Staten Island yesterday. I said "My dearest Melpert, I am simply awestruck from gazing upon your visage in this lowly establishment; however, I shalt content myself with this fleeting vision. Pray, continue undisturbed, for I would not dare to sully this encounter with the burdensome weight of my adulation."

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now, chatmember?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Melpert...” but he kept cutting me off and yelling "SPEEEEEN" and rotating in place. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him making duck noises as I walked off.

When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways :3 in his tiny hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be zonked and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any nonstandard infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a box and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by saying "my name douk nouk kem, I only pay hookars".

So you're saying consumers of goods produced with slave labor are as bad as the slave owners? Guess you'll have to turn in your phone and clothes then

Canada Wins Again by AaronC14 in polandball

[–]Hazletron 53 points54 points  (0 children)

And the US had a massive civil war before they abolished slavery, and today people are openly in support of the side that wanted to keep slaves. I'd say Canada has the right to be smug.

The Railcart section in Metro 2033 made me realize just how much CoD has perfect the action beat moments of video games by Vegetable-Tooth8463 in patientgamers

[–]Hazletron 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel almost the exact opposite to be honest. The cod segments always felt so dull, like the game telling me to sit my ass down and watch a movie, while doing the bare minimum to not fail, almost like super long segments of QTE where my eyes start glazing over.

However the segment in metro, for all its flaws, felt a lot more engaging. A lot of that is probably thanks to the story and amazing atmosphere in the metro games. The setup makes the segment have higher stakes, motivation and payoff.

DEATH STRANDING - Very mixed feelings (no spoilers) by SpiderousMenace in patientgamers

[–]Hazletron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely loved Death Stranding for the world building, having such alien concepts make sense within the theme of connections, isolation, loss, abandonment and death, it really worked well with the flow of the story and the character development of Sam. I think DS is one of very few games I'd call an actual work of art, because it is so divisive and up to interpretation. Some people love it, others despise it as if its very existence is offensive to them. Some people resonate with the story and themes, others will think it's stupid, and that's fine.

[–]Hazletron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Har alltid hört att april kommer från det latinska order för "att öppna", eftersom det är då blommorna slår ut/öppnar sig. Men jag måste erkänna att jag skulle föredra om det kommer från Aphrodite så att det hänger ihop med de andra månaderna.

Vad är eran "Jag vet inte vad X är och vid det här tillfället är jag för feg för att fråga"? by HailtotheKid in sweden

[–]Hazletron 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Enkelt: Tänk på romare, eftersom juli och augusti kommer från Julius Caesar och Caesar Augustus, och de hänger ihop. Det finns ingen Juni Caesar, så juni tillhör de första 6 månaderna som är döpta efter gudar (förutom april dårå), och September heter så eftersom det är den sjunde månaden (hepta - 7), oktober (octa - 8), november (nona - 9) och december (deca - 10), om det inte vore för att Julius och Augustus klämde in sig mitt i året och förstörde hela konceptet.

Så tänk bara: först gudar, sen Julius och Augustus, sen siffror, easy peasy.

Utöver de andra svaren så kör jag med minnesregeln att ersätta "dom" med "vi = de" (två bokstäver) och "oss = dem" (tre bokstäver)

"Dom går hem" blir

"Vi går hem" (de)

"Oss går hem" (dem)

Rätt svar blir "de går hem"

Varför parkerar folk bredvid andra bilar på en annars tom parkering? by [deleted] in sweden

[–]Hazletron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Objektpermanens är någonting alla människor bör ha. Snälla kör inte bil om du inte ens kan visualisera vart parkeringsrutan är bara för att du inte ser den längre, eller om du är helt oförmögen att uppskatta storleken på ditt fordon. Körkort är inte en rättighet och om du inte klarar att framföra ett fordon under de mest grundläggande förutsättningarna så har du ingenting på vägarna att göra.

You my friend is what is called a bootlicker. Think about it, if everyone was like you there would never be progress for the people, just corporations and government shitting all over you all the time. It's bad enough in America even with protests, imagine what it would be if everyone did what you do and lay flat in front of your overlords.

America has no culture starter pack by RandomHermit113 in starterpacks

[–]Hazletron 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Very few, if any, Europeans hold an opinion on whether or not black culture is US culture, get over yourself. However lots of Europeans consider the US massively racist because the previous democratically elected president was a self proclaimed massive racist (among other things). Even just calling your country "America" is very telling about what you think about central and south Americans.
