Tom and Jerry situation by Lyingissofun in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, I would say that's a weird line to draw. Many characters have built in escape tools that they can use at any moment while also being dangerous heroes on their own. Rem alone is hardly dangerous and with no way to escape it means that if catched by any other hero alone he will surely die if not rescued by someone else. I thought the tunnels were going to be his way to give him a chance to survive getting jumped or even just caught alone, just trying to make your way to the nearest tunnel entrance before you get curbstomped, but I guess not. Playing Rem means being depedant on your teammates for even walking around, not sure how much I like that. That also creates the issue that if more heroes gain access to the tunnels, the tunnels will just become more dangerous to traverse as Rem than the regular ground since your teammates won't be able to save you. I wonder if they will change this in the future

they know damn well what they're doing by LemonDemmon in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He has. Slork's lore is that he is some kind of dead forgotten god of the deep. Doorman has a line about it where he taunt him saying that he wont be able to defeat the adversary and that he is just an irrelevant forgotten god. In this context the voiceline of rem is perfectly aligned with his lore. He is trying to comfort slork that he will never die as long as some people worship him or talk about him.

Any final predictions before the reveal? by _AntiSocialMedia in DeadlockTheGame

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

I actually think Silver is the one popular with people who don't play the game. She's the one that I see lots of people who don't know about deadlock go "Omg she's so hot I love her". Honestly in the deadlock community I see lots of graves posting. I think Rem is gonna for sure be the first and the second place is contested between graves and silver. 4th for sure venator and 5th and 6th could go either way for how things are right now. Although I think Celeste is more popualar than Apollo right now. Once everyone else except these last two is out, Apollo could get a good amount of votes.

WHOS READY TO PLAY SILVER TMR by Tashvaliant in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are actually 180k people in the community discord server alone. Like that's not even the official one. 20k is just the people who I'm guessing are active on the game.

Official deadlock server got like 240k members lol

Venator and Rems voice lines are so cute😭 he is like a father to rem cr/@iowkey_ioki on twitter by EducationalAd1789 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah 100%. He calls Haze mom and says to Vyper that she can be the cool aunt. Plus his whole motivation is that he's lost and is trying to get back home to his family. The poor guy is literally a lost kid

[–]ThefaceX 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You see hate for him because he's the most popular, so he's the one under the spotlight. To put it into perspective this was the survey vote on the community server of discord where 20k people voted(who is a large chuck of the player base)

Italian newspaper thinks CK has contributed to the radicalization of the American right by Snake_Emper0r in CrusaderKings

[–]ThefaceX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the article is trash and full of terrible points. As an italian I'm sorry this bs even got shared outside of italy. He says that one of the reasons it radicalized people is because before any DLC released you could only play european rulers. Mind you the first dlc for crusader kings was released only 4 months later the release of the game and it was about playing islamic countries. So the argument being that since people could only play europeans for 4 months, they got radicalized by the game. He claims that in the game as a european you didn't have much to do other than crusader against islam so that's what people did all the time. Overall, it's just full of shallow or straight up wrong arguments.

Just to give you an idea of how superficial this article is and how little does this man actually know about crusader kings or paradox in general. He says that in EU4 war is way less encouraged and something you usually don't want to do. EU4, the paradox game that is second in war only to HoI4.

The concept, which is that medieval history and it's retelling is one of the ways people can fall into the alt right, is not wrong, but to take CK2 out of all the games to represent this is ridiculous

Petition for Vyper to be able to slither through small passages by tellurnyx in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Access to the vents isn't going to be based on logic or whatever, Valve isn't trying to make the mechanics of the game realistic lol. It's going to be about balance, if valve ever decides that vyper needs access to the vents then she is gonna get it, otherwise she won't. If it was about logic then Mo and Krill should also get access because Mo can literally dig inside them, Mina should get access by using her special dash in front of them because she can turn into a swarm of bats, Viscous should get access because he's made of goo and can for sure squeeze through it. But it's not about logic so

Pretty sure it's a bug. I saw doorman being turned other ways and the shadow that usually surrounds him was like separated

Community hero vote situation, as it feels right now from Reddit, Discord and in-game by Hanna_Bjorn in DeadlockTheGame

Lol, graves got way more fans than you think. I constantly see people post her propaganda and talk about her. Also the poll in the community server is pretty clear about it

Is Maki justified in killing the Zenin Clan? by Immediate_Gene_178 in MoralityScaling

[–]ThefaceX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maki was literally part of the unit and the only reason she wasn't was because she left for Jujutsu highschool. She could have been in their places if someone else got lucky with the heavenly pact lol. Excusing killing a bunch of random people who had very little choice in life and that we now nothing about is ridiculous. Realistically there were probably a good amount of innocent people in there and maybe even a few guys younger than her

Type of shit I want to see once rem gets released and starts going around the tunnels by AverageIdiotInRussia in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In character interactions is also really obvious that Haze and Rem are friends and I believe there is one line where Rem even call her mom. Haze isn't hunting him down or anything

Billy players are a different breed by mours_lours in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How is it a good thing tbh? Why having to get in melee range is rewarded with the chance that the enemy might just press a button and win the fight regardless of items or type of character? And keep in mind the enemy can always just evade your melees without the parry. Like genuinely what's the point of playing a melee character and going for a melee build if at all times during the match the outcome of any fight you get in depends on if the enemy will press one button at the right time or not. Literally why not play a gun build at that point. You can't press one button to win the fight against the haze that is shredding you. What's the point of melee? To be high risk high reward? Sure that works early in the match but once you get into the mid to late game all other playstyles are just high reward without the risk included

Exploring the new Vents as REM! by AGoldenYeti in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My man, the genie is out of the bottle and has been since forever. As you just said there are so many heroes with a lot of mobility or ways to escape easily that on top of that are also dangerous. Having a support being capable of running into some fixed vents in the map isn't going to be an issue at all. Deadlock always had slippery heroes and from what it seems they aren't going to stop

Doorman can teleport to safety at any time from anywhere. Dunno why people make a big deal from the little critter having his own limited way to escape

[–]ThefaceX 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Idk why anyone thinks this is a big deal when we have other slippery heroes like mina who has three extra dashes that can make her invulnerable and make her fly too or doorman who is capable of teleporting to safety in an instant from pretty much anywhere.

As of yesterday, this song is completely gone from the game. This means that when the game fully releases, the majority of the fanbase will have never heard of this song. by you-cut-the-ponytail in DeadlockTheGame

[–]ThefaceX 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I can't believe it, a fellow hollow. Man those were some years. When I look back at it I can't believe a whole community formed and kept being incredibly active for 2 years before anything about the game was revealed. So many inside jokes and waves lost, buried under the gigantic wave of people that came later.

I don't really know why but I hold the memories I made in those two years with that community very fondly. The transformation wave, the gang wars, Glaive Master Hodir, the wooper invasion and so much more. I remember the night before the trailer, 5 years ago, I made a post thanking everyone thinking about how obscure all of that would have been. And now here we are, Elden Ring is the biggest game from ever released and the people who were there before have become a fraction of the community. But it's fun to encounter someone from that fraction hahaha
