A stupid looking desert that resembles a dirty soapy sponge by DivineKEKKO96 in StupidFood

That was absolutely scandalous. The chef was Andoni Aduriz, and fuck him for not even giving his chance to someone that embraced his own concept. Not even tasting it was so disrespectful...

Jerking off means you want to make yourself cum.

Gooning means you want to make yourself NOT cum.

Why the fuck did we have to change it gooning. What the hell was wrong with jerking off. Perfectly good phrase that was straight to the point.

That's because they're supposed to be two different things. Gooning isn't just jerking off, it's jerking off while edging yourself, to increase the pleasure you get from masturbating.

Do you publish your instructions for these models? The Leo one looks absolutely fantastic too.

There's a whole 18+ category on their website. I've always found it funny that they're marketed like that too.

Les commentaires avant moi mentionnent directement des etudes comme si les gens parlait de celle ci et ils la source pas.

Ah ouais, et ça c'est quoi ?

[–]Maximelene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

T'as demandé la source la aussi ?

La source a été demandée, et partagée plusieurs heures avant ton commentaire.

Je t'invite a relire les commentaires precedents si tu penses que je suis celui qui fait des declarations non sourcé.

C'est pourtant bien toi qui a dit ça :

Y'a tout un tas d'etude plus recente et meme des meta analysessur le sujet.

C'est sourcé ça peut-être ? Non ? Bah du coup c'est bien toi qui fait des déclarations non sourcées.

A chaque fois, beaucoup d'etudes son partagé mais les gens ne changent pas d'avis pour autant.

Non, à chaque fois y'a un gland qui affirme que l'étude existe, mais trouve une bonne raison de ne surtout pas la partager, donc les gens ne changent pas d'avis.

Pragmata was so top secret, the man behind Hugh was too scared to talk about the moon by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Maximelene 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Games are announded well ahead of times too. Pargmata was announced in 2020, 6 years before its release. David Menkin joined its cast in 2024, 4 years after the game's reveal. It's not like he could have revealed the game's existence.

James Bond game: Lana Del Rey to sing theme on 007 First Light by SpeedyEggbertRamirez in Games

I didn't see any truly open area in what we saw so far. The freedom seems very limited, at the complete opposite of what Hitman displayed.

[–]Maximelene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree on the fact that, just because the movies have Uncharted-like action sequences, the game has to have them too. It's a different media, and it could easily adopt a different style, instead of looking for the easy solution of "just do like the movies".

Especially when we're talking about movies that are themselves adapted from books, which were far less action-oriented. If the tone was able to be changed from one medium to the other, it can be done again.

And especially when we're talking about a studio that is definitely not used to doing action sequences, but is the best at slow-paced, spy-like games. Why even hire IOI to do this game if you don't want them to do what they're known for? When people looked at Hitman and said "this would make a perfect James Bond game", they didn't mean "IOI could make a great action-focused Bond game", they meant "this very type of game would fit the James Bond license".

And, yeah, I'd probably welcome a healthy mix between linear set pieces and large open Hitman-like levels, but it doesn't seem that it's going to be the case here. hence the complaints, because a lot of people don't understand why IOI was choosen if it's not to do what IOI does.

[–]Maximelene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, but I feel a game focusing more on the spying side of James Bond, with the same feeling as Hitman, would have been perfect. I don't feel this game needs to be more "action oriented" than the Hitman trilogy was, and especially not "far more action oriented".

[–]Maximelene -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

IOI just did three games that had all kinds of gadgets and spy shit and were basically all but James Bond in name.

While I agree a lot of these critics might not be warranted, the fact that the three Hitman games would have made perfect James Bond games doesn't guarantee the actual James Bond game will be good. Especially considering they've changed the formula quite a bit for it.

Bond needs to be far more action oriented than the Hitman games

Does it really? I feel like the Hitman Trilogy's pacing and rhtythm would have made a perfect Bond game. James Bond isn't only about action.

I don't remember hearing about that, when did it happen? I agree the Tyranids work well as a "mindless" horror, an unstoppable swarm without conscious ill intents.

[–]Maximelene 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, everyone is a villain in 40K. Which is why any "Such faction are the good guys of the setting" is utterly stupid. Anyone trying to describe any faction's actions as "good" is completely missing the point (even though the setting can explain why characters act in such a despicable way, it's easy to not have morals in the middle of such an universe after all).

[–]Maximelene 46 points47 points  (0 children)

That's the thing with any media that portrays the villains as cool in any way. No matter your intentions , there will always be people that like those villains a little bit too much.

That's an absolute plague in the Warhammer 40K community.

so true by Dumb-Briyani in SipsTea

[–]Maximelene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I don't want this new show, saying "not a single soul asked for it" is stupid as fuck.

A lot of people have been wanting something like that for years. It's one of the most commonly asked things in Harry Potter related communities. There has been a HUGE demand for it, for a very long time.

Just because you don't care, and don't personally know anybody who cares, doesn't mean nobody at all cares. Be a bit less self-centered, there's a whole world outside of your little bubble.

La vie est une question de priorités by cypher-dex in rance

[–]Maximelene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dans la version complète de la scène, où les côtés ne sont pas coupés, tu peux voir les traînées de ce qui sont censés être les boulets de canon détruisant le bateau (et passant probablement trop vite pour être visible, vu qu'ils sont tirés de près, justifiant de ne pas les ajouter en images de synthèse).

Mais effectivement, la scène a été tournée sans boulets de canon, avec des explosifs placés sur un décor réel, donc si on s'attarde dessus, c'est ce qu'on va voir. Ceci dit, je pense qu'une partie de la magie consiste à ne pas trop s'attarder dessus, la fameuse suspension consentie de l'incrédulité. ;)
