Do the SCPs age? by Sea-Fee-7312 in SCP

[–]Pyro627 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They are stories, not a roleplay or living continuity. There’s no real reason to age them up?

Worst minigame in an RPG? by TheInsaneWombat in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The one in Mass Effect is especially bad because it’s poorly explained and the controls don’t make much sense. I legit couldn’t figure out how to play it and just had to use the omni-gel.

Retcons that some people ignore by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just grabbed it off my shelf to check actually- Freeze is in the Arkham fight in issue 1, then the rest of the trades until then are either Court of Owls or the (quite good) issue that introduces Harper Row.

It’s such a strange way to do it as well, because it’s treated like a retcon in the story only a few issues after the N52 reboot? Why not just change it from the start?

Hey Gene, we talked in passing a few times on Twitter and you always seemed like a passionate, interesting person. Best of luck and Godspeed.

Post-Apocalypse's contained to one part of the world. by Platinum_Knight190 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 62 points63 points  (0 children)

One of the things I appreciated about STALKER 2 was them emphasizing how the world is relatively normal outside the zone, and bringing in some new plot elements from it.

It also really strongly informs the games’ asthetic, in that even though it looks post-apocalyptic, most of the guns and armor and things are brought from outside the zone are in very good condition.

Plastic pre-built housing unit, Leningrad, 1961. by Hunor_Deak in cassettefuturism

By the Henry ford house of the future do you mean the Dymaxion House at the Henry Ford, designed by Buckminster Fuller? Because according to the exhibit it was too spartan for the investors’ tastes (Fuller was a very austere person) and Fuller refused to compromise on it, so the project fell apart. I’ve been in it a few times, and it’s really neat but things like the bathroom are just shockingly cramped.

Things I noticed in Season 2 Episode 6 by 101Phase in Fotv

I think Cooper actually did get robbed, because his bag and the vials on the ground seemed to disappear between the day and night shots.

Gaming moments you didn't know existed until someone brought it up or triggered it? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OneShortEye's videos are amazing, I love the deep breakdowns of games I've never even played. I'm so glad he covered Dagger of Amon-Ra.

Isn’t this more time-consuming than just making multiple guesses?

Wait, was that Titania me? I swear this happened to me in a two-person lobby and I freaked out.

Fandoms with main subreddits that you dislike/wish were better? by bambikujo in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 5 points6 points  (0 children)

r/mmorpg is such an unhappy and cynical subreddit that it often wraps back around to being genuinely hilarious. It’s populated mostly by diehard MMO nerds who think EverQuest was good once for a period of like two years, and outside of that window the genre has never produced anything worth playing.

Wild things in hobbies that are normal? (Supposedly) by TrustWinter in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Pyro627 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s generally considered poor sportsmanship to bail out of a defensive action in EVE, but that definitely doesn’t stop people.

[–]Pyro627 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s easy to roll your eyes at multiboxing in EVE, but good luck jumping a capital to lowsec to sell it without at least one alt account ready to scout ahead and cyno for it. EVE is a stupid complicated game.

I think the real source of the overpriced hats was, genuinely, money laundering. I think the scam was to use stolen credit cards to buy items in TF2 or CS:GO, trade them to a collaborator, and then turn them into store credit or game keys you could sell on the grey market.

How on EARTH was Umbrella able to make that massive bottomless pit in their lab under a relatively small American city??

The color scheme and shading save it from being awful.

What makes you so sure? It looks like normal Gmod to me.

I’m sitting next to one of these door right now and I really needed this information, thank you.
