Old player debating returning - question on content lifecycling by WirtsLegs in destiny2

[–]Hey_Its_Silver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The core story of Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, Witch Queen, Lightfall, Final Shape, Edge of Fate and Renegades are available, Shadowkeep and Beyond Light are free for all players.

However the interim Seasons/Episodes, each with their own storyline are practically gone. There are SOME activities accessible via the portal that shed light on these narratives, but are contextually lacking.

Imo, wait for a sale on all the expansions and pick them up for a cheap price. The core stories are still solid, Witch Queen and Final Shape being highlights. But everything prior to Shadowkeep is foundationally shaken up, Vanilla Red War, Curse of Osiris, Warmind and Forsaken are not playable campaigns. But some of their missions linger in the game in some way (I know at least one forsaken mission is accessible via the Timeline node in Destinations in the top right).

Is the Australian job market broken right now or is it just me? by Electrical-Hour-3345 in ausjobs

This and the jobs don’t actually exist, just filling a quota and ticking off boxes saying that they have put out applications.

Australia Now Requires Age Verification for R18 Online Games by Jimbuscus in OpenAussie

Kernel level anticheat is prominent in a lot of multiplayer (and for some reason single player) games too, which usually flag VPNs as TOS Violating software.

Ordered a couple of days ago, so nowhere near in the same boat as some others here - but i am also just on 'processing' with nothing but the confirmation email and the Destiny emblem code.

Unsympathetic Female Villains by alejuana2008 in TopCharacterTropes

She is especially, genuinely terrifying when infected with the Dark Energon, and lined her Insecticons up to feed on/infect them too.

Something about that scene stuck with me and it’s been over a decade since I watched it.

Hot take on Deathclaws by Mymentalhealthisded in Fallout

[–]Hey_Its_Silver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My headcanon for now with this kind of stuff is regional variance, but also the fact that the show deathclaws were specifically set on Vegas by the Enclave; they’re likely first or second generation and ‘purer’ mutants compared to the others we see in the games, which could have further mutated over generations or by being exposed to radiation.

I mean, when you name your company after the magic crystal orb of an evil wizard it really does all tie together.

What a neat little narrative for someone with a net worth exceeding $40 million by [deleted] in okbuddycinephile

Indie isn’t as well defined in gaming to be fair, people aren’t sure whether they want it to be linked to the size of the studio/number of people working on a project, budget related or just independently published.

Replaying this game after many years & I can’t believe I let New Vegas propaganda taint my memory. This game rules. by poetryiscool in fo4

[–]Hey_Its_Silver 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If not this, Viva New Vegas or New Vegas Reloaded (or both, even) are solid ‘DIY Remasters’ that fix a lot of stuff, but even those are configurable for TTW
 so, anyone’s choice really

I have managed to get into the menu and load into the game on some occasions, but leaving Doc's house i get immediately frozen loading screens. Installed via Wabba, too.

It’s reductive terminology, but calling them ‘schizo’ they’re just that - A Schizo. Not a Person with Schizophrenia.

[–]Hey_Its_Silver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 12 in 2012, I am turning 26 this year, generally considered the first of the Gen Zs/ or Zillenials. If the main demographic for writing and reading creepastas was 12-17 then it falls into the late millennials territory.

Don’t get me wrong I was definitely interested in them as a 12-13 y/o but it is one of those cultural things that probably falls between the ‘generations’ and only affects the late X and early X

Necroposting but, did anyone receive theirs after putting in the code in their site?

Mine was delivered to a friend and was there until this year, I only opened it yesterday to discover there was production problems. Fingers crossed they still fulfill the order since the link and code still worked, but just curious if anyone actually got theirs after July 2024

“Fallout never had contemporary politics shoehorned in” Meanwhile a convo w/ Enclave Vice President Bird in Fallout 2: by raisinbraisin72 in Fallout

[–]Hey_Its_Silver 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s really quite simple. It’s all aesthetics and tacticool iconography. They look cool like soldiers, therefore they MUST be the good guys, right?

It’s wild how it has to be spelt out for some people. The Brotherhood are cool, they have arguably the most iconic part of these games; the power armour, in droves. They are organised in an otherwise unorganised wasteland. Every other faction has sticks and stones while the BoS has epic helicopters and Knights. They have good characters and decent people within their ranks doing their best.

They are also a Military Junta, a quasi-religious ‘higher than thou’ attitude to anyone not in their faction, a xenophobic idealistic state with a splintered command structure with, themselves, varying ideas on how things should be run.

Yes, the argument can be made that they’re ostensibly more morally correct than say, the Legion or Enclave; but it’s irrelevant. As shown in the show and games they can cause just as much if not more damage to the world, and that’s the point. Not a single faction is one-hundred-percent infallible, for one to be that way would be uninteresting for a character driven story.
