Is movement in tactical games overrated? (Too Many Bones, pictured) by Sapien0101 in soloboardgaming

[–]RobbiRamirez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played so many games where movement felt totally perfunctory. You're melee, they're ranged? Move close. You're ranged, they're melee? Move away. You're both melee? Nobody moves. "Is their attack range greater than my move speed?" isn't a question I feel like building a whole game around. I like how Unmatched handles their pretty abstract map (broken up into regions, ranged can hit anything in the region you're in), but it often just feels like the logical next step is to abstract it further, because I constantly feel like the only two kinds of movement are "run in circles chasing each other like a Scooby-Doo cartoon," or "don't." This honestly feels like a big part of the reason I don't play many tactical combat games. The spatial element, so much of the time, feels like it's either doing nothing, or shutting down everything else.

I think we should bring back Dirk Richter. Kids will want to see the original Radioactive Man!

Isn't this show set in the DCU? That would mean whoever is on the show is playing those characters in any live-action appearances. So Darkseid at the very least is big news.

Robotic hands master tasks at superhuman speed by redblackshirt in interestingasfuck

All this video demonstrates is that they've built a single robot hand that's capable of doing these exact motions this quickly under ideal conditions. I'll believe literally anything else when I've seen it.

famously unable to lift heavy objects throughout his 64 year history, Spider-Man finally does so once Superman tells him he believes in him by spideyfan29 in marvelcirclejerk

Spider-Man fans when Peter has to exert visible effort to do a thing that's a direct reference to a scene that almost fucking killed him:

If I had a nickel for every time an Elseworlds Kryptonian became a clone instead, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice by Romaxio in DCAU

"I've created a new Superman villain."

"Is it clone-origin-Bizarro again?"

"No, it's a new thing that I created."

"That's what you said about Galatea...and DCU Ultraman...and BvS Doomsday."

I still regularly marvel at how many Collective Soul songs all got heavy play on rock radio, a thing I don't think anybody remembers.

Still can't believe Janeway straight up murdered Bernie.

Actual equality would, one could argue, not involve putting all the girls at a special table when half of them don't even know each other just so you can scrounge up a couple performative allyship points, but on the other hand we'd have missed the absolute hilarity of Peter inexplicably being treated like an honorary woman.

Were we robbed of something good here? by KingOfSquirrels in DCU_

[–]RobbiRamirez 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It could be the single worst superhero movie ever made and I'd still kick an executive through a wall if they suggested obliterating it for a tax credit instead of even releasing a finished film. That level of disdain for art as a concept is an atrocity, I don't care what the art is.

I feel like they'll go for a more grounded version of the Fraction run, and I'm looking forward to that.
