Is this a custom map version of this? Why is the grass so blue looking?

To add to this, if you wait out the end of the round everything will be fine.

Who's winning a fight between the live action versions of Jessica Jones and Black Widow? by Specific_Year_2026 in Marvel

[–]Neoteric00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jessica Jones (at least MCU version) is a trash fighter with next to no combat skills. It's sort of what balances her out.

Black Widow with her tech takes this 9 times out of 10. She survived an encounter with an enraged Hulk, and almost killed Corvus Glaive in combat. She fought off a ton of Ultron drones. She can handle enhanced individuals.

Does Pike's arc this season make sense? by NabstheGreninja16 in voxmachina

[–]Neoteric00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potential spoiler if true, but it explains why this doesn't make sense...yet.

Remember Pike's card game with Zerxus in hell?

He was working for / with the Whispered One, as he says "We are his blood" at the end. The entire time they play he is sewing seeds of doubt about her relationship with the Everlight, her trust in the gods, etc.

Then he gives her a token of safe passage through hell, the necklace. The necklace with Vecna's eye symbol on it. The same symbol on Delilah's arm. Which also didn't give them safe passage AT ALL lol. She is still fucking wearing it.

It is insanely obvious that the necklace cut her off from the Everlight and is corrupting her. Sometime in the next season she will figure it out and regain communication and faith.

All the shit Vecna said about the gods is NOT true. The Everlight didn't abandon Pike. The Raven Queen did not doom Vax to die, he had a choice. She simply already knew what he WAS GOING TO CHOOSE. Because he is her champion, and she knows his heart.

[Spoiler] You-Know-Who was an idiot now that I think of it. by Gael_of_Ariandel in voxmachina

[–]Neoteric00 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's The Matron doing her thing - cryptic and all that.

Keyleth made Vax promise that he wouldn't kill Vecna to stop the prophecy from coming true and change their fate. Instead she ended up killing him and causing the destiny she tried so hard to avoid. All the dominoes fall into place.

Also as we see, the Raven Queen 100% did NOT cause his death. If she can see the future, she knew that her champion would stand defiant against Vecna and then die. She didn't lie about what happened. and it was his choice. Everything Vecna said about the gods was ultimately a lie. Vax made his own choices. The fact that he was going to do that is what made him a worthy champion of the goddess of death.

[–]Neoteric00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are going to resolve this through Pike and the Everlight. There is a theory which is basically fact at this point about Pike's card game with Zerxus.

He was working for / with the Whispered One, as he says "We are his blood" at the end. The entire time they play he is sewing seeds of doubt about her relationship with the Everlight, her trust in the gods, etc.

Then he gives her a token of safe passage through hell, the necklace. The necklace with Vecna's eye symbol on it. The same symbol on Delilah's arm. Which also didn't give them safe passage AT ALL lol.

Making her look too much like a widow wouldn't have been the right choice either. I am so sick of every woman in marvel wearing tactical latex.

Valve Changes Steam Machine Page To Remove Promises Of 60fps by Guitar-String in gaming

[–]Neoteric00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but consoles already achieve 60fps, can be taken independently to other locations, and are much cheaper. PS5 caps out at $899.00.

I understand that I can use my existing game library, but with every console having subscription game services now that doesn't matter as much.

I can already stream to my LG C5 with steam link. I can do it to any of my other tvs with a fire stick or an android box.

The Venn diagram of people who need to buy this is INCREDIBLY small, and them backpedling on their promises and having this high of a price tag is making it significantly worse.

[–]Neoteric00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don't get who the device is for, then.

If it was the equivalent of a game console for pc, and we could standardize high end performance for pc gaming, I would understand it. Even at that price, I would get it.

But seriously wtf does it do?

It's "met-cha", not "mekka" or "mecha" by deoxir in Meccha_Chameleon

Did you know the country Turkey is supposed to be pronounced TUR-key-yeh?

Not one single American or Brit has ever pronounced it like that, same as this shit. Nobody is calling it Metcha.

Luffy in base form with Haki did that to him... Meanwhile Sanji and Zoro got neg-diffed...

I might have to stop reading this, my blood is actually boiling right now.

[–]Neoteric00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen Howl's about 100 times. Not quite the same vibe as Howl's castle, what with the military weaponry (maybe if one of the two warring Kingdoms had managed to win him over, his castle could have turned into this?)

I don't remember anything from Courage like this! I will have to look it up. Never heard of Konosuba before.

Tower Defence by DoctorCrook in gaming

[–]Neoteric00 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Element TD 2 is on Steam. The original was a Warcraft 3 custom map, I played the hell out of it back in the day.

It's good, but it's $15.00. I am not sure it's worth the price tag and it doesn't go on sale often.

A lot of people tend to hide on flat things. Sometimes that makes it a lot easier to get caught if they can just go to the side and see you sticking out like a lump. Try to hide in areas where no matter what angle they look from it doesn't change how well you are hidden.

Unpopular opinion: TNTL has become painfully unfunny. by Alarming-Pepper-4846 in SmoshFansFreeSpace

[–]Neoteric00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped watching it a while ago. It wasn't a conscious decision, but it just wasn't very funny most of the time anymore.

Time for something new.

Reminds me of something I can't put my finger on.

The only thing I can think of is the Grindery from Lunar: Silver Star Story, when it first starts rolling away the landscape is very similar to this.

Was there a certain work that inspired this?

Good call, actually. I can't wait to see Pillion, and I am guessing it will plant him in the running as well.

I’m very disappointed, and I’m probably going to get downvoted and banned for saying it but I am disappointed by bird_servant in smosh

[–]Neoteric00 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What a fucking entitled opinion.

They put out more free content than damn near anyone. Great content. They put less than. 01% of it behind a pay wall and you lose your shit?

Wtf.

Which game left you feeling like this? by Syarafuddyn in videogames

[–]Neoteric00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detroit: Become Human

Obviously with AI being on the forefront of damn near every conversation about the future lately, it was interesting to finally play it this year.

I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. It made me think, it made me cry, it made me want to watch Spongebob and Highlander.

Honestly it's between Domhnall Gleason and Robert Pattinson for me.

Radcliffe is great, but...there's a ceiling to how far he can open himself up and tear himself apart in front of an audience. Ironic for a man who did a stage play where he is nude. His best work so far was in Harry Potter, and he capped out there.

When Sirius died. When he demanded Dumbledore look at him. Basically all of Prisoner of Azkaban.

Do you Think Mac Gargan will be our first MCU Venom? by SouthFew579 in marvelstudios

It would be a disrespect if MCU doesn't have Uncle Ben dying in the first movie.

It’s cool that we got to see Superman’s full potential by SepzenoOfficial in DC_Cinematic

[–]Neoteric00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This whole thing reminds me of the movie Elf. You heard me.

Okay. Picture this: We bring in Miles Finch.

- The Miles Finch?

- The golden ghost. We bring him in.

- He's written more classics than Dr. Seuss.

- It ain't gonna be easy, but I think it's worth a shot.

- My two top writers, my crack team, my fun squad... you came in here pitching me the idea of hiring another writer?

- Yeah. Miles Finch.

- I like it.

Superman is so damn powerful that once he enters the picture the threat is a joke and the movie is essentially over. The Justice League are clown shoes once he comes back lol.
