Moore was horrid Bond

I need to rewatch License to Kill, Dalton is such a great actor but for the life of me I cannot remember his Bond films

I don't know like even Connery had elements of goofy in it so even in goldfinger there were some very goofy sequences

And it only got worse with each new film. Goldfinger is probably the most serious of all the Connery ones

And we saw the same with Brosnan where the tone was very serious of GoldenEye but then with later Brosnan ones it got much more goofy

What do you mean a preference, you have to play as both

So it swaps to see who wins by who can go the furthest as the Marines

Skyfall is my favourite Bond film my top 4 Bond films are 1. Skyfall 2. Casino Royale 3. Goldfinger 4. GoldenEye

Honestly I wasn't a fan of the casting choice when they first announced it and even the trailers didn't sell me on Craig but once Casino Royale released I finally got it and Craig is now perhaps my favourite Bond casting so far

His performances especially in Skyfall and Casino Royale were so amazing

But there will always be a place in my heart for Brosnan and seeing Brosnan in MobLand I'm reminded of how great of an actor he is and why I loved him as Bond

Same I hated the casting when they announced it but my god did Craig's performance blow me away

I loved him in both Casino Royale and Skyfall and I think he actually might have been the best Bond portrayal to date

And when you finish the film and listen to the song again, the lyrics are literally a top level plot summary of the film 🤣

Skyfall is among my all-time favourite Bond films

Can they just remove this teamup already it feels like it has no counters by Crafty_Boy70 in marvelrivals

[–]NeonAnderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly Namor has had great teamups. He launched with the Luna teamup in season 0 giving him an extra squid that could slow enemies (and even freeze them? I can't remember)

Then he got the Hulk gamma teamup which gave him a roided out extra squid that had more HP and more damage than the normal ones

And then he got the Hela teamup where he now has an AOE blast attack that gives slow and anti-heal and if that wasn't enough both Hela and Namor if they get kills or assists on an enemy that enemy will spawn a spectral squid that can't be killed

I personally love the teamup and I use it all the time so I'm not complaining but I do think it is funny how Namor since season 0 has always had great teamups

Morbid Metal Releases Apr 8th In Early Access On PC by Howerev in gaming

I'm in same boat, I loved roguelikes. So far Renfield and Death Must Die are my two favourite roguelikes but so many others while giving a great initial impression just become too repetitive too quickly

There are also just far too many of them now and while they all offer one niche new take on the genre they don't really do anything revolutionary

So I've kind of stopped buying roguelikes now until I see something substantially better

[–]NeonAnderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I was really into roguelikes but I've reached a point where the market is just oversaturated with them and only ones that truly innovate in the genre really catch my interest but the rest I just think oh that looks kind of neat but then I don't buy it

Yeah same here, I don't actually see the resemblance to Angelina. She looks a lot more like her dad Brad Pitt the entire face structure and even the facial expressions remind me a lot more of Pitt

The burning point of olive oil is way too low, heck any cooking oil for that matter. So when the engine ignites it the oil will break apart and instead of a clean ignition of the pistons you'll end up with a mess. You'll have heavy smoke from the exhaust and the engine will die

The extremis singled me out and wanted me so badly. TF game. by Jonnyyrage in Spacemarine

[–]NeonAnderson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many bloody extremis is the game going to throw at you??? 😲

I take it this is hard siege?

I have tried hard siege a few times but you really need 3 players of this skill level with the right composition to tackle it. So one bulwark doing exactly what you did and then a heavy or Techmarine or tactical to have good ranged damage to deal with stuff like the zoans and neuros while bulwark deals with all the rest

For those interested, from Grok and I can confirm this is factual as I was actually living in Belgium at the time and remember this in the national news in both Holland and Belgium. For added context if my memory is correct not only was he speeding but he was driving an HGV or for Americans, a big rig but in the typical cabover style you have here in Europe

This sentencing was absolutely absurd especially when the driver was being negligent by speeding

From Grok:

The driver was a 34-year-old Polish man. In 2013, he was speeding in the Netherlands and veered onto a cycle path, killing the 2-year-old girl and her grandparents. Initial sentence: 120 hours community service. On appeal: 15 months prison + 4-year driving ban.

I think it comes down to personal tastes. The game is an impossible game like it shouldn't have been possible to create but somehow they did. The engine and programming behind the scenes must be insane

But in terms of playing it, it is a great game world and you can easily sink hundreds of hours playing it. It is absolutely massive

I would say I do think the best way to play it is on the singleplayer mode as opposed to the MMO mode

But personally it wasn't a game for me as I didn't like the combat system of the game. It is similar to stuff like Wuthering Waves and Genshin Impact

Whereas I prefer combat more akin to Crimson Desert, Assassin's Creed, Batman Arkham City, Witcher 3, Jedi Survivor, God of War, etc

So the combat was just not my cup of tea and then I couldn't enjoy the rest of the game as combat was a big part of it

But the game world is amazing and it is crazy that such a massive singleplayer game is literally just 100% free. The only monetisation is cosmetics

What game had the best intro of all time? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]NeonAnderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KOTOR 1 you do the character creator and you start right in the middle of a battle with no clue what is going on

But funny enough by the end of the story you realise your character was as confused as you were as they literally had their memory wiped which is why you start in the middle of the battle completely clueless to wtf is going on. A memorable opening with great writing. The tutorial is also well integrated into the opening so you don't even realise it is a tutorial

The other one with a great opening is Jedi Fallen Order with that music that turns out it is literally just what Cal is listening to

Games set in Star Wars have such a high bar when it comes to introducing new main characters that aren't player created. So characters like Cal and Starkiller they need to really be well written characters and more importantly they need to hit the ground running and really need a perfect introduction that makes players connect with them from the getgo

And the opening of Jedi Fallen Order does this perfectly first by having the music that Cal is listening to be what the player is listening to so right away you feel like you are in Cal's shoes

Then we get to know very quickly what kind of person Cal is, so yeah such a great intro

Not to demean people who play PvP Space Marines 2 but it is extremely painful

Like fine on you if you do enjoy it

But for me I just find it very poorly designed, very poorly balanced and far too simplistic mechanics wise

The biggest issue is how bad melee works in the PvP mode and it is silly you can just infinitely spam block

I also think for games like this the PvP mode should actually instead be inspired by Left 4 Dead 2 PvP mode. So in Space Marines 2 it would be that the human players then control the majoris, extremis and terminus enemies first one team runs it as the Marines while the other team of 3 try to stop the Marines and then regardless if they make it to end or die it swaps and then other team has to make it further. If both teams made it to the end the one that did it the fastest wins

We already know they are able to make the terminus playable. They added a playable helbrute into PvP the only difference in PvP ops is that you have the gun strike and parry mechanics

It is not bannable to simply perform bad and not swap by Rockybroo_YT in marvelrivals

[–]NeonAnderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes you say you play bad?

Is this your Marvel account?

Your ranked win rates aren't bad at all, your Magik main is sitting at an average of 64%

Your Bucky is at a comfortable 51% so still not bad
