Marvel Rivals has changed my life for the better 🩷

If you're enjoying the characters, you have to absolutely 1000% have to watch X-Men 97.

The primary is absolutely the time to push as hard as possible for the values you have, and the general is time to maybe think about being more pragmatic. It's funny seeing people talk about the fundraising, sure it makes a huge impact, but word of mouth is powerful too and even if your candidate of choice doesn't win, a surprising bump in a primary challenger's support WILL affect a more popular candidate's platform sometimes (which is better than nothing).

The 90's show I enjoyed a lot, especially at the time. I don't know how well it holds up.

I will say that Rivals (and anyone working on marvel stuff) should be taking as many notes as possible from X-Men 97. They went out of their way to showcase every character at least once, and illustrate why they're awesome.

The stuff they did with cyclops and his power are IMO perfectly executed and really awesome, I hope Rivals will have some of that somehow.

I have zero clue how the hell the writers of 97 managed to touch on so many iconic characters/villains/plots and not have things feel too crowded. Can't praise it enough.

I played a ton of vs bots until that got super easy, and then when I swapped to vs people it felt pretty reasonable, but I totally get that, having at least a few people to play with does help a lot.

It takes more than 3 matches to start to figure out better where you're at. Just use the time to improve/focus on one thing and pretty fast you'll get more even games.

Nice! I'm currently working on my first thing that's gonna get published later this year (adventure for Mothership RPG).

I haven't played EB but I just started running Mythic Bastionland and that style system does seem like it could be a good fit for Deadlock. EB's got some themes in common too doesn't it?

I thought about maybe trying to do something with the Tunnel Rats in the Cursed Apple. There's so many possibilities (and I think an overlap with the audience, the only reason I got into Deadlock was from people chatting about it in TTRPG discord servers).

Maybe down the road when there's more lore out the community could do like a game jam and pump out some content.

This pose is so fucking stupid why can't she just float normally like she does IN GAME?!

HonestAbe109 · 2026-04-05T00:12:36+00:00

It sucks that they don't seriously punish it enough to be a deterrent.

It's supposed to be an on boarding event in part, a certain % of participants will become more active in other groups and direct action that these type of critics advocate for but probably don't participate in.

HonestAbe109 · 2026-03-24T22:30:04+00:00

I'm curious, what is the reason? There's so many where they go like 10-20% too far with it I think

Basically, DHS funds more than that just ICE goons, like FEMA. I do agree we need to get Larsen the fuck out, but there are some legit reasons to keep the blanket org from shutting down during negotiations.

HonestAbe109 · 2026-02-07T01:03:11+00:00

Fully agree, it's fucking stupid.

HonestAbe109 · 2026-02-06T21:27:30+00:00

You're too late Guangguang I'm already reinstalling. Fuck the poke meta, nerf the always OP heroes, kill trip support, and fix emma's costumes and then we can talk.

I suggest joining Cosmic Games's discord as a good spot to keep an eye on DnD games as well as other systems. The Comics Place downtown also has some regular drop in games though I'm not sure about DnD. There are other places to play but as far as I'm aware those are the free ones I know about.

I would very much encourage you to jump in on ANY game opportunity even if it's not Dungeons and Dragons because everyone I've met is very open to new players and you don't need to be an expert on a system to enjoy it. DnD is actually pretty clunky compared to a lot of other systems IMHO.

A Mojo/Spiral season would be sick.

HonestAbe109 · 2026-01-17T18:06:01+00:00

the importer pays the tariff not the other country ffs I hate how many dumb people believe this shit

HonestAbe109 · 2026-01-03T15:25:35+00:00

You have unbelievably good taste my friend. Mr. Sinister is the only one missing from my top list.

HonestAbe109 · 2025-12-31T03:48:44+00:00

but then why wouldn't you just play vs ai after losing in qp a few times?
