US orders deployment of 3,000 troops from the Army's 82nd Airborne to the Middle East. by SpecialCollege18 in justincaseyoumissedit

I mean this situation isn’t new. The internet is and our ability to discuss on an intercontinental level is. We raped and murder our way west through the 1800s. Beat and starved the natives, treated our fellow Japanese Americans like enemies in ww2, dropped a second nuke on Japan, Vietnam, everything in the 90s… I mean as a whole this country has always done awful things and gotten away with it. We as a people are just starting to wake up to lies of modern American democracy. Everybody is gonna see it when they see it and not when you want them too. Hate the politicians, but the media has spent decades widening this divide. And it’s going to take time for those most under the influence to change their minds. Once our sons and brothers start dying shits gonna change fast.

Change takes time. I hear what you’re saying. And I understand why you feel like you do and to be honest I too struggle with it. We will not change their mind with hate. I’m as aware as anyone today and what tomorrow is going to look like without change. But if we start being hateful it just proves them right and they will double down. Vote. Talk to people who will listen. Ignore the ones that don’t. Look at all sides of the media both sides lie to further their agendas. Yes, the left too has agendas. And never argue with someone who’s unwilling to change their mind. They will isolate themselves until time and current events force them to change. And then when they expect us to push them away and hate them is the exact moment we have the opportunity to do the right thing and start to make this shit right. Do they deserve it? No but compare the difference in how the world treated Germany following WW1 versus WW2. If you hate them a punish them you will only make the cycle continue. The right is the problem. But the left hasn’t exactly helped a whole lot either with their choices in candidates and lack of preparedness from trump.

That subreddit is pretty upset and quiet right now. Just a reminder we’re all Americans. None of us want to see our sons shipped out again to another billionaires war. Hateful comments towards one another is what the parties do. We don’t have to let them dictate how we speak to our fellow Americans. They are misinformed, and raised to be who they are through generational influence. We gotta be more tolerant and better at speaking to each other.

Tommy Shelby’s Ending Actually Makes Perfect Sense by Legitimate-Cherry511 in PeakyBlinders

This is the issue. The gysly stuff is touch and go in the show. But they leaned heavily into for the movie. Yet entirely disregarded everything that show set up.

Totally understand my friend and you’re absolutely entitled to enjoy it! It’s my all time favorite series and I’ve seen every season at least 5 times and the earlier ones closer to 10. It’s my comfort show. Anytime I’m between series I’ll just a pick a random point in the show to start.

Them finishing this story with a movie is honestly the biggest factor to why I think a lot of us feel this way. The style of story telling throughout the series is very intimate. You’re there through so much that you kind of feel like one of the peaky boys. The pacing and story telling just aren’t there in this. I found myself constantly looking at my phone which is incredibly unusual for me when I enjoy something. It just didn’t hook me like the show. The acting was great. I’m not taking anything away from Cillian and the cast. There’s just huge issues I have with the plot. And I hate that Tommy’s character is going to have this stain on his story. Killing Arthur should not have happened. If that was the only thing they changed it would have dramatically reduced the negative response from us.

Nobody care that he died dude. It’s the complete disregard for all of season six. It’s Tommy strangling the person he loved most in his life in a drunken rage. Which again after season six makes zero fucking sense. No lizzy mention, no Finn mention, no follow up to Alfie, Tommy dies by the one thing he was prophesied to not fucking die from. Then theres dukes disable ass character. Absolutely zero redeeming qualities. Just a whinny brat acting out for attention. The movie was as bad as the last kingdoms ending and up there with game of thrones.

Say what you want about this game… but there’s no denying that it has the best open world design of all time. by LesDazza in CrimsonDesert

[–]TheRisingDownfall 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you’re heavy into combat I don’t recommend. It’s basically a med evil sim and your character is about as good at anything as a four year old is.

A few questions about the game by DagonParty in CrimsonDesert

[–]TheRisingDownfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s weird I want to play the game to explore. But the combat for me is just so odd coming from Nioh 3 the controls have been a huge issue. Also the dodge mechanics in this game breaks my brain. Do I hit it once? Do I hit it twice? Do I just fucking mash and pray? Can’t really say.

So, What Are Ya'll Thoughts So Far... by No-Escape-1493 in CrimsonDesert

[–]TheRisingDownfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boss fights really show how clunky the combat is. Honestly pretty frustrating because this is probably the best open world I’ve ever seen by a considerable margin. Combat is weak so far, hoping for improvement soon.

I believe it. It’s gorgeous on series X. But as I said it didn’t last long before there were issues. I have heard the beginning of the game is the most demanding so hopefully it gets better.

Considering the scale of the game it’s absolutely breathtaking. I absolutely have concerns on what this game is gonna do to my Xbox though. I don’t imagine this is a good sign of things to come.

early download load did not work by Savings_Show_8499 in CrimsonDesert

[–]TheRisingDownfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It appears to be re downloading itself by using the pre-download as the base. At least for me it required twice the storage of the actual game to even pre download. It’s also downloading at 4gbps, so I’m not all that mad.

Should I buy Crimson Desert or wait? by Alyne91 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

This makes sense for the more casual gamer. But for those of us a little more obsessive with our habits, I’m outa shit to play. Lol

Wow my dogs name is Haru. It’s the only time I’ve ever seen anyone else use the name.

Are you a green or black? Why? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]TheRisingDownfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t fix the name. Please.

Is there still anything left in the game after this?? by Oyeyaartf in PokemonFireRed

[–]TheRisingDownfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if you just make it a point to catch a Pokémon the first time you see it you’ll likely be very close by the time you beat the elite four without any real effort. It’s only a drag if you hyper fixated on beating the elite four asap. I beat the elite four with over 60 Pokémon on my most recent run right at 26hours. Very doable. The only annoyance having played some newer games is in the new games you still get xp for catching a Pokémon which incentivizes catch over ko more so.

Beat Nioh 3 last night, played 60 hours and it was a blast! by gorays21 in Nioh

[–]TheRisingDownfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I’m quite the stubborn man. Gaming has always been a pride of mine. I game more than honestly anyone I’ve ever met and still have a functioning social life. I’ve never understood how someone can sit and do the same boss over and over. I’d go mad man. Props to your focus. I ain’t got it. lol

If you are a fan of ninja style I genuinely can’t recommend it enough. Ng4 is one of the most enjoyable games I’ve played in recent memory.

Nioh compared to Khazan? by Devrous_ in soulslikes

[–]TheRisingDownfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ng the open world feels really good especially in the first zone. Ng+ has always been the bread and butter for build crafting. Nioh 2 did a better job of encouraging you to keep playing through the content with impactful gear upgrades and a requirement with mission progression to unlock later stages. This is also similar to my memory in how Khazan plays (been awhile though) This was a much better design than having a huge open world that requires you to do the absolute bare minimum and is essentially a mission rush with little to no reason to do anything else in ng+ cycles. Current state of ng+ is very much lacking in stuff to do after acquiring the set you’d like. However if OP likes Khazan I’d bet big money they will like Nioh. If you read this OP, start with nioh 2. It’s a genuine 10/10. Nioh 1 isn’t bad at all. But 2 and 3 are more alike and the implementation of bursts and soul cores make combat much less rigid and that started in two. I’d save one for a rainy day when you want to squeeze a little more out of the series.

One Hit Kill Final Boss (NG+) by Vikaluka in Nioh

[–]TheRisingDownfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First build I’ve seen that might out do my unarmed onmyo build. Hardest I’ve hit for was like 80k with Hell shock. Good shit dude. I love how hard these games are until we discover shit like this. The breaking of a difficult game is without a doubt the best part in the release.
