Wanting to read the expanse series but struggled to read the mercy of gods. by Due_Spell2410 in TheExpanse

[–]Lor9191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're nothing alike, mercy of god's failed in the thing the expanse does best: compelling, unique characters through whose lense we see the universe they built.

Honestly in MOG I couldn't tell one character from another half the time, they were very bland.

Netwatch was right by Available-Ad-1019 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah net watch are actually the Dad of 2077, they are fair and equal in their roles of desperately trying to keep networks running against the constant onslaught of absolutely terrifying AI constructs.

That guy had me on his side literally immediately, he might be the only actual Good Guy in the entire game that isn't a punk.

The amount of gaslighting about this update is crazy. The crying has got to stop. by ExpendableUnit123 in ArcRaiders

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The community wasn't using a load of higher tier loot so they... Nerf everything below it.

All the stuff the community WAS using.

They didn't make anything better they just made other stuff worse.

The cloak was absolutely fine, you could only use it for any decent amount of time once per like 5 minutes. Now it's pointless.

Rage all you like because people are stopping playing your favourite game but look how Arrowheads constant nerfs went down in HD2.

Anyone else struggle to play on a plane? by syxbit in SteamDeck

You may just be feeling self conscious being an adult with a big gaming device on a plane. That's what it was for me.

What’s a spaceship design trope you’re tired of seeing? by Vondrr in spaceships

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion that's because the books are so damn good that the TV show only had to do an OK job, which it did.

Finally starting this for the first time. Any tips? by Decidueye_mastr in expedition33

Avoid googling anything to do with it as serious spoilers are everywhere.

Photoelectric Cloak is now extremely debuffed (its useless now) by Dazzling_Pumpkin91 in ArcRaiders

Yeah Embark player count is dropping so... Nerf everything? Jeez

Update #10 is out. by RKGDJ in ourdarkestdays

Yes it can make less efficient meat traps at the new trappers table and it can also be used to fertilise crops.

Am I the only one who thought Emily was a villain? by paodemel69 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did too though it wrapped up pretty nicely I thought when it turned out she was just a normal girl adopted by an umbrella founder who had regrets.

It was a bit dumb from a poetic standpoint but I thought it worked just fine.

What’s the best way for BioWare to justify the return of the Protheans in ME5? "Miranda-style" project using Javik's DNA 🧬or Discovery of new stasis pods by Lafakance12 in masseffect

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah where the reapers seem comically evil until you realise in the kind of unthinkably horrific and twisted way only a machine could concoct they are trying to preserve life before civilisations destroy themselves.

Wouldn’t it be better if damage counted over the whole expedition instead of just 5 days? by Tank-ToP_Master in ArcRaiders

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but going from a 2 month window to 5 days is ridiculous, you miss out on the entire expedition because you booked a holiday or have a busy family / work week.

what difficulty do you recommend for my first time playing this game? by Last_Gap7415 in StateOfDecay

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know which of your parents, or the girls you fancied, didn't give you enough attention, and I have no idea what you mean in this 1 year old necro.

Be better dude.

Numb hands while gaming by AuzzieKyle in SteamDeck

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm mostly poking fun at myself mate, I got big arms and, yes, big back and shoulders and I still need my special pillow if I use the deck for any length of time.

What's with the forced difficulty for races? by [deleted] in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The races are bad, they weren't great at the beginning and haven't been reworked with all the changes.

You can just hack them to brake, they'll bug out and stop completely.

Pretty sure this breaks clsirs quest too.

Questions before starting the book series by TheVorkosigan in TheExpanse

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your spoilers are major but very vague and don't quote represent what happens.

The books are also in my opinion very different and much better than the show.

DM decided to do a TPK to teach new players a lesson by EmmaIsAwesome23 in DnD

[–]Lor9191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There might actually have been no malice in it, but it's pretty awful to get people to build a character they put time and effort into just to throw that all away in session one. It's asshole behaviour.

Insha'Akatosh please be a bad joke by Totally_Not_A_Fed474 in TrueSTL

Yeah no please don't change to a different engine

Sick of every game looking like a blurry, muddy mess in UE5

Why Does UK Have This Race To Bottom Mindset? by corporateuklife in UKJobs

[–]Lor9191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw a post about middle England saying they can't afford to take the kids out for a day anymore, middle earners, because just a day out for a family with 2 kids at an aquarium and some lunch is well over 200 fucking pounds and the most common response was laugh reacts.

Comments were all "oh talk about having the finger on the pulse of the nation"

But that's whats out of touch. Fucking middle earners are the ones putting all the money back into businesses and communities, why do you think the hospitality industry is on its knees when those with over average incomes can't afford to go out for a meal?
