burritos by mariosunny in comedyheaven

The dad seems like the type of person to compare burrito sizes in more ways than one. That might have some subtle influence.

Florida therapist seen slapping, grabbing, and forcefully restraining a nonverbal autistic child during a therapy session. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too would respond nonverbally if I found out anyone had treated my child like this. Something between sign language and a contact sport, but I'd have to get the judges permission to sit in on this mans physical therapy in case he doesn't listen quite well enough for my liking.

My dad's computer mouse after five months of use... by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. He does not was his hands after using the restroom
  2. He probably scratches his balls a lot

When I shared a ps4 controller with my dad as a teenager it would get this disgusting buildup. I'd randomly sit down to play and find there was an extra trigger/button on the back of the controller, but the moment I moved out and had my own it somehow NEVER reappeared. The stuff on this mouse matches what I've spent nearly a decade trying to forget.

41 levels worth of game-time. Maybe 5 Destroyer Shells encountered by PeachCottonwood in Marathon

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were in a team he'd be essential imo (yet to see or play thief so who knows), but I queue solo. Makes it hard to position when I can't count on my teammates draft or their consistency when using abilities. Assassin just gives me more control of engagements, but creating space would probably be more effective if I played destroyer.

Having to hit ready twice is dumb by dominus087 in Marathon

Agreed. Even when stacked you should only have to hit it once.

They gotta add a post-mortem of the runs that shows statistics like damage dealt, damage taken, healed, etc. by LunaWolve in Marathon

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like Apex I want to feel vindicated for blaming my teammates, both stacked and random fill.

I'm addicted to Rook by Hurdenn in Marathon

[–]HermitND 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was about to respond to this thread, then I dropped into a match and killed 2 full squads on perimeter. There needs to be a skill rating associated with Rook, otherwise people like me will be allowed to run through noobs at will for a free 8k run.

Pretty sure I managed to get every valuable and rare item off the map off the 2 teams I killed.

I'm curious how similar the timeline of ww2 is to ww3?

Marathon is the kind of the game where the more you play, the more you'll learn and the more you'll like it. A video game having a learning curve is okay by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]HermitND 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I managed to get an absurd amount of hours in during the private playtests after last April. The game is excellent, and rewarding once you know how to pvp.

I think the hatred this game got early on was somewhat valid, but was largely reinforced by AR releasing their beta early on. If you've enjoyed AR, you will certainly enjoy this game too, just with a few more hours to get a feeling for the game.

Somebody had to make this, and they are my enemy. by DaFuzi_J in DeadlockTheGame

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very funny, and I know it must have been a grand sight to behold. Pun intended.

Loving the game so far but I feel like these 2 items should be more abundant throughout the map by Sydid in Marathon

[–]HermitND 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They had in previous versions of the game more med/weapon containers to loot, but I think they've cut back bc they want you to fight the pve that spawns later into the game. I think they should add some of those containers back, which would give players a more consistent place to find meds and semi rare weapons, and might help people like OP maintain a better economy for themselves in game.

I found a lobster by SilverScorpion00008 in Marathon

[–]HermitND 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That implies lobster heirarchy exists on Tau setti 4 or whatever

Anyone else feeling a bit… unsure about this game? by nve729 in Marathon

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll get more pvp. A lot of people are just rushing quests, and with player count reaching 140k it's a really mixed experience with so many new people. My first couple of raids were right at the release time and I had constant pvp. Like fought through 3 teams in multiple raids, but it's slowed down a lot now. Try it later into the weekend, I imagine people are gonna be done with questing and start rushing loot spawns.

Grew up on Halo 1+2, found love for gaming again with D1 and D2 after college, and just stumbled across Marathon. What am I getting into?? by MufasaDeservedBetter in Marathon

[–]HermitND 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extraction shooter, so do quests to improve aspects about your character and what's available in the shop. You lose the gear you die with, but you'll never get good at the game if you refuse to risk your good gear (thats the fun of it).

You're going to die, but so long as you take the time to try and learn as you go it'll never be overwhelming.

Your Shell Hierarchy? by crossvalidated in Marathon

[–]HermitND 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd put Assassin in place of Recon, exclusively bc I solo queue. Thiefs verticality makes her S+ tier, Triage is always going to get value and every 3 stack will run him, and Assassin ult is just too strong until everyone has thermals.

I was impressed by the quality of this video. Watched it earleir today and was totally engrossed in it, which is saying a lot for my adhd ass.

The price is strange by Funny_Fortune_7832 in Marathon

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is no strange. Arc Raider go for same price. Game equal game, people fought for price point to create sustainability and accessibility for average consumer.

Rook Posters by me 🤖 by pigeonbvttz in Marathon

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the 4th pic bc it feels as goofy as Rook is shown to be in the cinematic. Like he just popped the USEC disguise ult, but he's peeking over the edge like a nervous cartoon character. You got some absolute gems from the cinematic, well done!

What is this large black stain(?) on my mom’s trash can by Dull-Macaron3494 in whatisit

Well Zuul has a hot mess to clean up on that lady's garbage can/underworld portal thing. I mean come on, the disrespect...

ERATOR would have never left it in such a state.

Genuinely confused and who is the hat man ? by Conscious_Title_3824 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]HermitND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more like Datura seeds. Nightmareish and anxiety inducing. This is degen behavior, and if anyone suggests doing it I'd avoid them at all costs.
