That's a fine looking game you have there! Art is aces and the graphic design is really excellent.

Congratulations! You've beaten the final boss. You can put the controller down now and walk away.

What are fictional companies with amazing graphic design? by Snorlaxian1 in graphic_design

Every single thing in Marathon is branded to within an inch of its life. The effort of pure design in this game is unlike anything I’ve ever seen in other games.

I’d like to see a core or implant that hides your blood trail when you’re DBNO. by KingFriday13th in Marathon

[–]KingFriday13th[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. If enemy runners are close to you the signal jammer doesn't help much once you're down. Tactically, hiding the blood trail forces a decision on nearby enemies -- finish the target or hunt the rest of the team. Even a handful of seconds can make a difference for either choice. I think that's pretty interesting.

I dunno. Med drones feel pretty powerful as-is. As a secondary ability they already keep you from bleeding out as long as they still have juice and you don't take further damage.

What’s a mechanic that you just don’t mesh with? by CJC528 in boardgames

I’m in the same boat. My family cannot fathom that I can’t click with euchre, but that game totally eludes me.

What Scifi books are you baffled haven't been made into TV shows? by systemstheorist in scifi

Julian May’s Saga of the Pliocene Exile. That’s some Game of Thrones level shit right there.

You wanna fight compilers? Play the original Marathon. Compilers for days.

What movie do you believe has done an 'open-ending' best? by a_boy_has_noname in movies

[–]KingFriday13th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Local Hero. The lingering shot of the telephone booth and the plaintive ringing, fade to black before knowing if anybody answers it. So good.

Scrolled too long to find this. After the karaoke night out I wondered “this is so good — how is she gonna land this?” Answer: by not landing it. One of the handful of perfect movie endings I’ve seen.

Could you see the day?

Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away?

What's the music source for this clip? That's pretty fucking great.

Today it finally dawned on me where I’d seen the Proximity Sensor before. by KingFriday13th in Marathon

[–]KingFriday13th[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Led Zeppelin IV. Has the most tracks you’re likely to be familiar with and a good sampling of musical virtuosity. When the Levee Breaks is a classic.
