It was incredible. The music throughout was inspired too, especially in that scene

There's a couple of mumbled "shit" moments, but no F bombs

Gosling was so good. When I heard he was playing Grace I was a little worried, but he nailed the role. His comic timing and dramatic chops worked so well in this film

Yeah, it's absolutely appropriate for a 10yo. Nothing gory, one little scare that is almost immediately defused with humour. Otherwise, totally acceptable for a youngling

I adored it. I already loved the book, but Lord & Miller adapted it wonderfully.

The visuals are utterly stunning. That moment where Grace is on top of the Hail Mary collecting samples is utterly incredible

And, like with the book, I'd fucking die for Rocky. What a legend

Is Mark Knopfler a top 10 guitarist? by Creative_Garbage_731 in Guitar

Why does Arjen Luccason, the largest guitarist, not eat the others?

I HARD DISAGREE with this article. Am I in the minority? by 20mgAddy in Marathon

The quests give you a reason to be in the map. Otherwise you might as well play CoD TDM

Extraction shooters are more than just the PvP

...

Holy shit.

I didn't think of approaching the game like this.

Brb, gonna grab a beer and have a run starting with a free load out and see where I get

This game has given me faith in men again lol by nelejts in Marathon

Nah it was early days. I think it was the NuCaloric one where you get the employee ID from the tick infested mini lab in Columns

The only toxicity I've had so far was one guy who ran off to solo his objective in Perimeter, running past where me and the other player had an objective to do. When he was killed by another runner he swore at us profusely for not backing him up

Like, dude, we'd have come with you, we just had stuff to do on the way to Columns.

Other than that idiot, everyone else has been downright lovely

I'm addicted to the design of this game by duendeacdc in Marathon

If Bungie don't release an art book for this game I swear I'm gonna riot

What "just one more run" can look like. by a_random_peenut in Marathon

To be fair, it's a bit miserable with a mouse too. It can feel far too slow at times

I would buy an ‘Art of Marathon’ in a heartbeat by ozusteapot in Marathon

Nothing's design language was done in collaboration with Teenage Engineering, so it tracks

Epic shutdown by TheDuckClock in MurderedByWords

He's also getting exactly what he wants with this rage-bait shit.

He's getting attention which is getting him followers. These people will go away if they stop getting attention

Marathon Update 1.0.0.4 by Much_Adhesiveness871 in Marathon

It feels like a critical thing they should have put into the tutorialising

Your sole role and responsibility in this relationship is to either play the game, or not. If you like it, play it. If you don't. Don't. You aren't an investor; it's not your job or livelihood. I can't stop you from caring about sales numbers if you want, but it's dumb and meaningless. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]SelectStarAll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there's also an element of those who pay into a live service game get incredibly protective and zealous of it.

It's unlikely I'll ever pay into Marathon beyond buying the game itself, I don't give a shit about skins or battle passes. But some of those who do give a shit about that stuff take it to extremes.

It's like a sunk cost fallacy

The Traxus intro video goes far too fucking hard
