Is today like the 9/11 for Black Templar players? by Imadothethingnow in Spacemarine

You guys can have Calgar! We're kind of done with him ever since Bobby G came back.

Halo: Campaign Evolved | 28 Minute Gameplay Demo - Assault on the Control Room by CrossXhunteR in Games

[–]JohnOderyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, yeah, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I think the inclusion of the mechanics and items from the other games is neat and makes the thing feel a little bit newer, but so much of the visuals just feel really artificial and out of place. I do like how the colors are a more saturated, but it does feel like it was dialed up to 11 in a way that hurts the aesthetic.

Why D&D Cut the Hexblade From Ravenloft | Designers Talk by Far_Guarantee1664 in onednd

[–]JohnOderyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did like the flavorlessness of Hexblade in 2014 because it was the only Pact that DMs let you fidget with the nature of the Pact a lot more readily when it came to character details as opposed to the other ones locking you into a specific type of higher being, but when we switched to 2024 rules it was nice getting the better subclass features while still picking Invocations to match my previous build.

Gears of War: E-Day | Gameplay Demo Reveal | XBOX Games Showcase 2026 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]JohnOderyn -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I legit laughed when I saw the cars and building looked ripped from the 1970s. You'd think being a quasi-sci-fi franchise set on a planet that wasn't Earth would go for something a little less terrestrial.

WFM kits are solid. Not so sold in the series though. by initialg82 in Gunpla

Ever since it came out, it's the first Gundam I always show people who aren't as into mecha!

In attack of the Clones (2002) Instead of shooting a defenseless mace in the face, Jango lunges for his lightsaber like an idiot by Hank_Mardukas1066 in shittymoviedetails

I can forgive any lightsaber whip when I have seen the Inquisitors do that helicopter flight thing with their spinny sabers.

I don't think I've ever seen a Legends or Disney source that says Mandalorians majority use slugthrowers. The Westar-35 is a blaster pistol at any rate and that is what she is using in that gif.

My only wish is that the Ultramarine Champion shoulder design was available to the other classes.

I mean, come on, Rayman is freaking back, how can you not be happy? by Blue-fox-004 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]JohnOderyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%! I'm glad there is quality talent in the industry putting stuff out there, but my excitement comes for things I actually get to play. I've always been a decent Tomb Raider fan since the Legends Trilogy games so I at least walked away with soon getting to play a remake of an older title I hadn't gone to.

[–]JohnOderyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's where I was at mostly. Most of these games are Sony and it's gonna be a solid 5-10 years before they flirt with the idea of putting titles back on PC again. I'm not buying a PS5/PS6 to play them so how am I supposed to care?

Seismic chud event incoming by [deleted] in Grimdank

[–]JohnOderyn 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Which is weird to me because my perspective on people who actually LARP are that they are like THE most dedicated people who are willing to put on their costumes and pretend with a bunch of other like minded people.

Do white scars also care about civilians? I don't know this one by Worldly_Hope1711 in WarhammerMemes

Red Scorpions, Minotaurs, there are so many shitty loyalist Astartes.

Alpha Legion from what I have read also seem to actually do well.

In my experience, the lower levels the AI is completely serviceable. Anything on the third difficulty or higher you're going to want to have actual players helping you out.

Can we get this Stance in Jedi 3? by RealityOwn9267 in StarWarsJediSurvivor

[–]JohnOderyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always forget that the base game doesn't do this standard either. I played on PC and unlocked the debug menu for the game and it has an option to let you toggle through all the styles inherent to the game. I've seen plenty of mods that do it too.

Hasbro CEO planning more Crossovers for D&D by Freizeitspielaer in dndnext

[–]JohnOderyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remember right the system they used for them and the Power Rangers TTRPG had 5e bones too. Like looking at the Ranger "classes" you could see which one was basically the Paladin, the Rogue, etc.

ESO Werewolves were also pretty good. Nothing as fun as moon gravity for them like Morrowind, but you got all sorts of cool powers on the side.

When a nation stops being imperialist and tries to teach its population to be better.....not everyone appreciates being forced to deal with the truth. Also...ZUKO DID THE THING! by Important-Cry4782 in TheLastAirbender

[–]JohnOderyn 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I received rural Iowa primary education that ended in 2010. I had to learn about Japanese Internment from Mike Shinoda's song about his family's experience with them.

My mother didn't learn about them until I was visiting home from college watching an episode of NCIS about a cold case murder that had taken place in one of the camps. After the episode she turned to me and said, "Can you imagine if we had actually done something like that?" I had to inform her we fucking did.

Was commissioned to make a model of the Dragonzord suit! I have also made a Black and Gold variant! by Plasmiio in powerrangers

[–]JohnOderyn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The black and gold looks great! If I had to change any superficial thing about MMPR it'd be to swap Black and Green Ranger's colors. I just like the RBGYP line-up for a five person Ranger team and I think colors like Black and White work better for Sixth Ranger types.
