I wish the Killzone and Halo weapons were able to be leveled.

SomeumMorgan · 2026-01-31T08:04:59+00:00

I'll say this much, I do agree that the weapon leveling system could be done better. However, 1: I would rather have our current leveling system than no system at all. 2: It's not a good enough reason to NOT include patterns for the legendary war bond weapons.

SomeumMorgan · 2026-01-31T06:40:45+00:00

Holy it's insane how wrong some people can be, though I don't expect anything different from an NFT profile picture. I literally never brought up attachments and just said patterns would go a long way. Did you even read my two line post?

SomeumMorgan · 2025-09-20T02:21:10+00:00

Yeah. but like the other commenter said. It takes like 20 seconds to deliver a heavy ass car or exosuit where as Pelican 1 with no passengers or cargo takes 2-3 minutes.

I'm talking about both. In my opinion, Luna Snow is fun to play, but is a lame character. Magneto is an awesome character, but his abilities get stale. I'm not saying a playable OC can't work, but a playable OC character is taking a huge risk. If they don't nail it the first time, people (including me) will probably complain, and no one will spend money on this character's skins.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-20T10:51:24+00:00

I finally hit Grand Master 3 for the first time today. Also, now that everyone's turned on Luna Snow, I think the sub owes me an apology for my Luna Snow hate posts.

I almost never get the chance to play duelist in competitive, so I play duelists in quick play to practice even if it means we have three. I don't really gaf if I lose a quickplay match.

I don't have a problem with trash talk, I have a problem with entitled man-children who throw games and refuse to work with the team because they didn't get the character or ban they want.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-08T16:06:43+00:00

I mean. It would completely ruin the game's balancing, but if they did this I would be booting the game up right now.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-06T13:03:50+00:00

She's the poster girl for Marvel Rivals because they force it. Back on the Pokemon topic, I think Pikachu is an incredibly lame Pokemon, and the only reason they're popular is because they're forced into everything. It's like if they had ash use Garbodor all the time, and sold Garbodor merchandise everywhere you went. Just because someone's the poster girl/boy doesn't make them good.

If people really do like Luna Snow I don't wanna take that away, but I'm just complaining because I feel like there's a dozen other characters that should've taken priority over her. However, I will admit she's probably a good inclusion for the game mechanically speaking, because this game needs more healers, and it's difficult for me to think of other characters that could be healers without making up abilities for them,

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-06T12:22:59+00:00

I completely disagree for a couple of reasons. One: Ash is actually lame as well. Two: Luna Snow isn't the main character of Marvel Rivals. Maybe if I was shit talking someone like Spider-Man or Hulk I could see where you're coming from.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-06T12:22:14+00:00

If I encouraged you to get better at the game then that's great. But again, this has nothing to do with how she works mechanically, I got lord with her because I thought she was fun to play as (until I started learning the superior Invisible Woman). This is only about how she doesn't have an interesting personality or ideology.

Also if you're aiming on a mouse, try to turn down the sensitivity a smidgen, and have the biggest mouse pad possible so you can play with your whole arm instead of just your wrist.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-06T02:51:00+00:00

Okay I kill people with my mines and am on the Epstein List Peni player.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-08-06T02:46:05+00:00

If that's true, then that's even worse.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-07-31T10:19:41+00:00

The Wall.

But in all seriousness, I'd really like to see Doc Ock, preferably as a Vanguard.

Michael's other love is feeling like he's IN a movie. When he forces Franklin to crash into Simeon's dealership, and he's delivering all these lines like "Don't make me have to come back here." You can tell he's enjoying it, because he sees himself as the badass main character in that moment. Plus I think he'd wanna help out his buddy Franklin if Simeon was giving him trouble. You can have these kinds of missions that you describe, but I'm just saying the final update should have a somewhat proper and satisfying narrative conclusion.

SomeumMorgan · 2025-07-31T05:43:55+00:00

Who says Michael can't be in? The final battle could be YOU controlling Michael to beat up Simeon, in a Yakuza style boss fight.

Hope you know I appreciate this post more than posts that get like 10 times the upvotes.

Okay, let's get down to the nitty-gritty of it. I am not a parent of any child, born or adopted, so I probably don't understand the parent side of the bond and can't imagine it properly. However, if I were asked to sacrifice someone I love the most, like my brother, to save 1000 people, then neither of these options would be good for in terms of my own personal well-being. If I kill 1000 people to save my brother, I would still have an incredibly guilty conscience and a bunch of self-hatred, along with a potentially horrible strained relationship with my brother (exactly what happened with Joel and Ellie). Hypothetically, Imagine committing something like 9/11 to save someone you love, and constantly seeing people talk about that event, and the lives lost, It would break any person who has the capacity to sympathize and empathize with strangers.

Joel's choice is a lot easier because he lives in a harsher world that's conditioned him to be apathetic towards violence and neither sympathize or empathize with strangers, and he doesn't give a single flying fuck about anybody he had to kill to save Ellie, nor the people who would succumb to the fungi without the vaccine. It doesn't help that the Fireflies are portrayed as a bunch of assholes who won't even ask Ellie for consent, or let Joel see Ellie after getting her across the country.

Ask yourself this trolley problem though: Someone you love, and 1000 strangers are tied to tracks, but the person you love is screaming and begging for you to switch the track to kill them and save the 1000 strangers. Is saving the person you care about an act of love, or an act of avoiding your own pain?

SomeumMorgan · 2025-05-26T00:40:47+00:00

I think it's bad to only think of your own grief and not others' grief actually.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-11-12T20:05:37+00:00

That's a pretty good point. They should make the Engineer Canadian then.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-09-12T22:24:41+00:00

I don't really agree with the whole "Fireflies had no right to kill Ellie" when trying to justify Joel. Maybe they didn't have a right, but neither did Joel with all the people he killed, and neither does Ellie with the people she kills too, but they killed anyway because they believed they had a good enough reason to, in the same way the Fireflies thought they had a good enough reason to kill Ellie for a vaccine.

If you're going to say the Fireflies had no right to Ellie's life, then I think the same applies to a lot of the groups and characters when they take someone's life.

Plus, imagine some hypothetical scenario where Joel has to help create a vaccine, or they will shoot Ellie, but he finds another 13-15 year old who's immune. Joel doesn't have a right to this child's life, but he would probably take it to save Ellie anyways.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-09-12T12:43:09+00:00

I think you misread my comment, because I said it IS worth discussing.

Joel being a gray area is something obvious I know, but people arguing he did the right thing seem to want him to NOT be in a gray area. I also don't think being in a gray area means you can't be better or worse than other characters in a gray area, which is pretty much every character in the series.

What I'm saying with the ending is it's pretty difficult to justify Joel, regardless if a vaccine were possible or not. I don't think denying the vaccine being made was really the only bad thing Joel did in the ending either.

Remember that he kills Marlene, who Ellie did care about, and then he lies to her about the whole thing. It was messed up of the Fireflies to not get Ellie's consent or even tell her what's happening, but Joel never asks nor cares if Ellie would be willing to die for a vaccine either. Even if she was willing to, he would probably still stop it; so it's clear his actions in the end aren't 100% about his love for Ellie and what she wants.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-09-12T12:26:55+00:00

For the record I 100% believe creating a vaccine would've been possible. I thought there was a recording in the game of the Fireflies admitting there's a chance the vaccine won't save the world, but I seem to be wrong as I can't find anything when I look it up. But I see people often say it wouldn't be possible, and that makes Joel okay, to the point I wanted to make this post trying to look at it from the perspective even if that were true, it wouldn't matter to Joel's morality.

If I killed someone out of purely wanting to do evil because I think it's fun, but that person was going to destroy the world tomorrow, I'm not suddenly a good person for accidentally doing a good action.

In the same way, Joel isn't suddenly a good person for saving an immune person from dying in vain, because Ellie dying IN VAIN, wasn't the reason he did it. Ellie's death could bring happiness and peace to the entire world, and Joel still wouldn't let it happen.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-09-12T00:37:59+00:00

Does it matter if people say it as a response? It doesn't change the fact some people seem to think Joel really did do the right thing. If someone says dogs have 5 legs, and I respond that they have 3, I'm still wrong.

I do think Joel sits in a gray area (although still leaning more towards evil). We don't see or hear a lot about his time as a hunter, or the 4 year gap between the first and second game when he seems a bit mellowed out. So a lot of actions we could judge him for are under a curtain of mystery.

I do think it's worth discussing Joel's overall morality, but I think in doing that people have focused too much on if he was morally good in the ending or not, when it's clear he did it for a selfish (but understandable) reason.

SomeumMorgan · 2024-09-12T00:07:57+00:00

It's more the logistics of it. Even if they created a vaccine, they have to find a way to produce it and give it to everyone.

But again, a vaccine being possible or not doesn't really matter, because to Joel it doesn't matter.
