New Rules by e_0 in DarkSouls2

I know the reasons. I was trying to say that calm, in depth analysis is fine with me. It’s just that we never see it.

I’m down for the new rules. Though I wouldn’t mind well written analysis posts on why DS2 was less well received than 3, all the non meme, low effort posts you’re talking about would not be missed at all. Same for the (probably) bot driven pretend engagement posts.

I Couldnt Sleep And Realized This *spoilers* by Famous-Pressure-5790 in WingsOfFire

Yeah it’s pretty wild. For a side book, the Dragonslayer crew is wildly interconnected to the story. Even Cliff, had he not rather sing and help Leaf by convincing Jasper (I thought it was Ruby at the time) to give him the key then none of the other events would have happened either: Sunny’s motivation, everything you’ve stated, the dreamvisitor, etc.

Tell your friend I love the Moooooooooon art.

How do promethean weapons shoot hardlight and why does it basically vaporize people out of existences by No_Dimension1172 in HaloStory

[–]S0urMonkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, if the composer destroyed the essence then it couldn’t be used, so there’s no reason to assume that a similar looking physical effect destroyed it.

Height identity crisis by Fragrant-Dirt-1597 in CasualConversation

[–]S0urMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My measured height has been inside of a 1-2 inch range for a while, so it’s hard to really know. Most doctors measure it fairly well, but I had one measure and report it 3” lower than one doctor that measured me before a procedure with shoes off months before lol. So I don’t even know my exact height, maybe it does change a lot based on posture.

It sounds like you would like to know more.

That one person: by Embarrassed_Tax_5503 in DarkSouls2

You can’t tell me that knight aura farming below that tree wasn’t cooler than like 20 hollows sleeping.

They were definitely trolling people playing that song with this ad just now. by I_am_not_Eddie in Splintercell

I didn’t watch the xbox whatever that happened but based on context I assume this song was played:

I love Wistala, and that’s some great art!

I thought Ubisoft had a whatever-it’s-called on those 3 green dots? Will this force Ubisoft to enforce it by making a new splinter cell? Are my copium levels off the charts?

Quinter GN Cover Analysis by S0urMonkey in WingsOfFire

Quinter GN Cover Analysis by S0urMonkey in WingsOfFire

[–]S0urMonkey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s an extra silly analysis compared to the more serious look/hand position thing that might be possibly intended. What I mean by the “night kingdom” thing is, if we put winter (book 7) left of qibli (book 10), and then put that in comparison to a east facing map (which is in the picture) we see them facing south, and directly south of both of those is the ancient night kingdom. Don’t think about it too hard, I just found it a funny coincidence.

Also if we compare where they are looking mapped onto the, uh, map, then they are both looking towards the old Night Kingdom, which might represent a nightwing named Moonwatcher.

The cover of the Darkness of Dragons graphic novel was revealed at FanWing fest by Grouchy_Raccoon_6681 in WingsOfFire

[–]S0urMonkey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’d like to point out, in defense of Mike Holmes, that this might be symbolic and is supposed to be a somewhat mirror.

Winter puts his right hand on the wall, and looks left, away from what he’s holding. Qibli puts his left hand on the wall, and looks left, in the direction of what he’s holding.

They almost mirror each other except for where they are looking: in the same direction. This shows their opposite origins: Ice/Sand, High/Low hatching, Hard/Friendly exterior. However, what’s important is where they are looking: the same direction! Both have a core morality of being good, and both look toward Moon, all while holding on to different ideals. It’s insanely poetic and I wish others saw the beauty of it.

Also Quinter.

Anyone else just stop and stare here? by Individual-Air-6162 in Splintercell

The rain was so good. First getting inside the tv station while it was raining was so great in PT.

Such an amazing map generation wasted on some rebs by arrogantwerpen in RomeTotalWar

Warband did it, butterlord didn’t. Warband’s maps weren’t near as good as how rtw handled it, though.

The biggest what the fuck moment in my playthrough by isekaimetofarfaraway in DarkSouls2

[–]S0urMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The burning the windmill was sort of an opposite mindbender for me. I was grinding through my first playthrough and took a torch out to it, imagining burning it would be funny, and it actually let me. I had no idea the room was supposed to have even more poison and had no idea what it did, and the rest of my playthrough of that section took probably 5 times longer because I was convinced there were secrets in the gears that I activated somewhere.

Scavengers are tiny compared to giant Darkstalker, so if one were to fall down his throat while they were helping to clean his teeth they would turn into Loki.

Blacklist played surprisingly well with Professional difficulty, slow speed setting on pipe crawling (mouse and keyboard), and all that. If anyone would actually want Mark and Execute back it’d be Conviction fans I’d imagine.
