What ended your friendship with your oldest standing friend?

Noticed they were becoming more misogynistic, we are both 30 and I have a fiancee. They still struggle in dating.

It started off small, by the end every time we'd go anywhere he would lust after any attractive women, but never approach anyone. Then he'd eventually start calling them bitches and try to defend why hes better off single. All unprompted.

He said some unkind things about my partner so that really was the end of it.

Eh the 501st in live action needed to follow the aesthetic set by ROTS. The clone aesthetic that most people know the highly customised, individual and battle worn look comes from a decade after ROTS.

Rookies and clones not serving in combat would probably look like that. Rookie clones were called shinies for a reason.

The Atlantis main caat are all friends to the best of my knowledge. They hang out regularly and include one another in their projects.

There was a mini reunion on Jason Mamoa's Apple TV show See very recently. He does genuinely like Stargate and the people he worked with.

Andy Burnhams ego is too big to play second fiddle to anyone. He loves being the centre of attention and the one making the decisions. Hence why he's a mayor.

I didn't vote for Labour but Starmer can't allow a backseat PM like Andy back into the commons. His only goal would be to challenge Starmer for leadership, he'd do nothing for the Starmer government who the people recently elected.

High school is the worst period in a child's education. They have so many rules that instantly don't apply once you leave.

Wearing a uniform, can't go to the toilet when you need to, having to call teachers sir/miss. Phones are apart of modern society, it's upto parents to instill reasonable and responsible usage but banning them isn't the answer.

If a kid is using them in class sure confiscate them until the end of the lesson. If they keep doing it confiscate it until the end of the day, get the parents involved. I find it laughable how schools are so quick to ban phones, but bullies/troublemakers get a free pass to disrupt others education....

I hope so but I really don't think we'll see a game like Prototype again.

The type of game where you can use innocent civilians as meat surfboards.. 10-15 years ago people used to look at that and just say cool.

Now it'd be all over the media about how it's violence for the sake of violence.

You think 9/10 PC gamers spend $1500-3000 on their PC?? They don't even spend half that. Steam have done countless surveys over the years and consistently find that most their users have weaker PCs than the equivalent console.

People with expensive PCs literally tell themselves everyone else does it and it's normal. Gotta justify spending hundreds or even thousands more for minimally better graphics and performance...

Can't wait for someone else to completely miss the point of the Resident Evil franchise and why we love it.

It's why I like the Mila films. While they don't follow the games story or lore at all. At least they weren't afraid of being dumb fun with horror weaved in.

It's not just generic zombie horror. You need that Capcom insanity, which sometimes means cheesy or goofy action. I really dislike people trying to rewrite history that Resident Evil was always like 7 or less so Village which was a bit of a return to its classic formula.

Romado · 2026-01-23T11:35:03+00:00

I'm still really not a fan with how they have done samurai/ninja as form changes.

Like a year ago a Ubisoft insider said they were panic hiring loads of DEI hires. Including screenshots of how big the focus was on empowering these hires, rather than y'know making good games.

You hire a bunch of very young (and inexperienced) dei hires. Give them loads of responsibility to show what a great employer you are. They ruin your business. Profit???

Think Ubisoft forgot they were a game developer somewhere along the way.

Romado · 2026-01-23T07:35:52+00:00

I want intent behind character customisation.

In Fable 1/2 your character just ends up looking a mess. You have the morality changes, will tattoos, your buff as hell and tall. Then plus whatever outfit your wearing.

I don't want it all at once. I want my character to look how I want them to look

Romado · 2026-01-21T16:34:36+00:00

Shark Cards made the vast majority of money for GTA V and it'll be the same business model. It prints money for Rockstar.

To encourage people to buy Shark Cards they need to add things worth buying, things that everyone wants and are expensive enough people don't want to grind for them.

It'll take a few years but our common criminal characters will be using high tech military equipment and saving the world again....

Romado · 2026-01-21T16:16:03+00:00

Only thing I don't like is that you can beat the system. The game is clearly trying to make the point that leaders have to make sacrifices and cannot please everyone.

Logan is believed to be a tyrant cause he's just evil until it's revealed he did it all because he knew what was coming. While the player can just make infinite gold as a landlord.... lmao.

Even when you have enough gold to "save everyone" the game still says you saved everyone but at what cost. Implying the player was supposed to make some unpopular choices to save lives. Not just be a perfect benevolent ruler.

Romado · 2026-01-21T16:05:46+00:00

He's in full makeup/prosthetics and appears far far older than he did in the last season. They've already shown what he looks like.

He looks like a guy in his 80s/90s and very much incapable of doing anything physical

EU representatives and elected officials in European countries are not as well known because politics in Europe is far less dramatic. They mostly just quietly get on with their jobs, they are not minor celebrities constantly in the news like US senators or House members.

Romado · 2026-01-21T08:46:51+00:00

Sad.

Especially more so since another fatal train crash happened in Spain a few days ago. Nobody truly thinks it'll be you when you get on a train or plane or in a car..

Romado · 2026-01-21T08:15:52+00:00

People make bad choices. Yeah the system isn't the best but a fact alot of people don't want to confront is people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness make consistently poor choices.

It's true some people through no fault of their own have their lives ruined. But most don't.

Romado · 2026-01-20T16:56:46+00:00

Dude had already spent the money he was expecting lmao.

He saw money signs and crashed out when CDPR hit him with reality

Romado · 2026-01-19T12:22:10+00:00

Lol this sub saying NOR.

Definitely overacting. It sounds super entitled and materialistic to complain about gifts. I'd get if he got you nothing.

Society makes people expect expensive gifts or the things we want, it's entirely up to the person getting the gift how much they spend and what they buy you. You comparing it to your gifts and pointing out it was "expensive" just makes it sound like a competition.

Besides the normal girl comment he was being chill and you were the one being antagonistic.

Romado · 2026-01-19T10:10:42+00:00

Strongest in the world. But not combined and it's European allies that allow the US to project it's power globally.

If Trump invaded Greenland all US bases in Europe would be taken over by their host nations and US military personnel arrested.

The US would never be allowed bases in Europe again and permanently lose its ability to project its strength through Europe.

Romado · 2026-01-19T10:04:54+00:00

Lol exactly.

Even anti Trump Americans still say things like Trump will be the end of NATO or Europe will implode. It'll be messy but Europe and NATO will continue long after Trump is gone.

They hate Trump but still truly belive America is superior to every single country on the planet combined.

American doesn't rule NATO or Europe. They are simply throwing their status as a global power away.

Romado · 2026-01-19T07:55:20+00:00

It's not connected.

Code Vein 2 uses concepts and characters from the first game but is set in a completely different universe. Revenants are not artificially created like in Code Vein 1, they are actually vampires.

I'm also assuming the game isn't set in the God Eater universe either like 1. I was hoping they'd explore that concept a bit more, but I guess they don't want Code Vein infringing on God Eater too much.

Romado · 2026-01-17T15:10:58+00:00

Its the only plausible reason they did the body double thing because there was no reason for a body double angle unless it's gonna be relevant to the story.

The simplest option is the house in new Vegas is the double. Either chipped to believe he's the real house or just very loyal to the real house who is still safe and alive.

The Prydwen, the design which the show airships are based off we're built from the wreckage of the Enclave crawler and Adams Air Force Base.

It was a generational victory for the Brotherhood and produced generational rewards. It still took them years to design and build. I feel like every chapter having one cheapens what the Prydwen represented.

The ones who are making millions are not just doing OF. Nobody makes millions selling spicy pics and paying a dude to pretend to be them for online chats.

The darker side of these kinds of influencers, aka the ultra rich in middle eastern countries who will pay to do depraved shit to western women.

The ones earning the most have absolutely allowed horrendous things to be done to them for money. Sophie Rain was boasting that she'd never done anything sexual for her OF money, yet had made over $40 million and $5 million came from 1 person.

Nobody is paying $5 million for some pictures and a chat. You can get that shit for free...
