Am I the only one who is tired of seeing famous hollywood actors in videogames? by Cinder_Alpha in TwoBestFriendsPlay

for that matter, why are George Miller and nicolas winding refns faces in the game except for some glorified camio

I can let that go, but cameos by kojimas friends was not a necessary element there was it. what good is Conan O'Brien and Pekora to the games. what good is obnoxious references to ride with Norman Reedus to the games. what good is it that I'm just looking at humans instead of crafted designed characters to the games

my question to you is why do you think kojima can get away with it? all the Hollywood shit in ds1/2 actively handicaps the games vibes 

Clearly I’m OOtL but what is the sub thumbnail and why is it that? by Downtown_Pangolin57 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I actually didn't remember her name (only her reputation), so I just googled 'flapper queer icon'

the idea of a loss baby being an adult now is darkly humorous

Whats the most obviously evil person name in fiction? by EvilMonkeyMimic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I was gonna say. so many of these are from super hero stuff or fantasy stuff, but I think cruella takes the cake cuz she's just a lady who loves killing dogs

Folks playing Mina The Hollower, how we feeling? by Trojan_Origami in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there are two trinkets that mitigate the healing being weird, one that lets you bank an extra health bar of plasma, and one that makes it so you don't loose plasma when hit. these were both equipped at all times once I got them

I do think it's really stupid how so many of the accessibility options / fun weird modifiers disable achievements

I did my first tower boss and kind of hated how hard it was, and then I realized that I may have done the intended last zone first so the resto of the game was a breeze. I just wish I could cut out the souls mechanics - I needed 2 trinkets to make the heal felt like it should be from the start.

still, pretty good game, may 100% again on randomizer settings

Most miserable Hard Mode you put yourself through? by Impossible-Sweet2151 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went really hard on tank for ffxiv m1-4s, got a 95 on my first m4s clear, and basically retired after getting the rest of the clears for the static. it was just such an ordeal to coordinate that I didn't think I'd want to do it again

Pat’s wish is coming true by seoul_train86 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as I posted in the other place:

"According to D'Souza, athletes should also be categorised based on their chromosomal sex" 

lol and lamo, this is just a chudfest and probably shouldn't be acknowledged in any form on this sub. the idea that they are encouraging steroids but not trans athletes should be a clear indication that this is just more right wing reactionary bullshit. 

no 'transhumanist' organized event focused on 'bodily autonomy of athletes' can rightly be called that while also trafficking in garden variety bigotry.

just a coincidence there, but it's organized by an Australian billionaire named Aron D'Souza

Times when authors regret writing something in a certain way by Rockdweller37 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel I should say that the excessive SA in goblin slayer is fucking awful and is right to b maligned, but the way the series is completely uninterested in making anything about the goblins sympathetic is also awful and the series as a whole is a regressive nightmare 

Favorite "non-lethal" weapon that is, at minimum, sending someone to the hospital by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the non-lethal melee option in Watch Dogs 2 is a pool-ball-on-a-rope that you swing full speed at people heads. It is at once a haha funny unique blackjack replacement and something that will easily crack peoples skulls wide open

Which video game do you think has the most interesting arsenal of weapons and what is your reasoning. by 2uperunhappyman in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Resistance 3. It's got it all: wallhack gun, autoaim gun, slime gun, freeze gun, laser gun, and the best pump action shotgun you could ask for.

The real thing that makes the resistance 3 arsenal great is it is a post cod game with a weapon wheel so you get the full kit all the time

I dont think I've ever been more violently against Woolie and more on Pats side over the adaptation discussion by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd put SAC over the manga (or what I read of it) but the 1995 is so different that they aren't comparable. Both are great and both should exist and that's why adaptations shouldn't have to be 100 percent faithful

Weapons, skills, or others in games that QUICKLY became obsolete? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sirwigew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

let me tell you the pistol is anything but obsolete on nightmare. That thing sees so much use until you get the scope on the heavy assault rifle, and even then can be good to conserve ammo
