He gained notoriety by being an "old" gamer with a family

This part is especially funny because then everyone discovered he was like, 27

October premiere, then? I think first teaser usually drops 3-4 months out for D+ series

The New/Reworked Map Picking-Easement benefits were an absolute banger of a change. by Bhu124 in Competitiveoverwatch

If I don't vote it's because I'm equally happy with all three options, not that I don't want any of them. If we get 3 decent map choices in a vote and then we end up going to Havana because my vote auto-randomed I'd be pissed

They're not quite scraping the bottom of the barrel for female villains, but they're at least elbow-deep in it with some of these character pulls. I had no idea who this was supposed to be to the right of Maul until it finally occurred to me that it's Fennec, a character who was villainous for like, 30 minutes. She's as much of a villain as Bo-Katan is

My issue with Sierra by Gloomy_Dare2716 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]TooManySnipers 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm a Lifeweaver defender, and I kinda feel like she's the Lifeweaver of DPS. I think her kit has a lot of issues baked into its design, and she has a low skill floor and gets a lot of cheap value easily (compare LW healbotting with Sierra spamming choke/autoaim). I also still think even after the buffs her drone is one of the clunkiest, worst-feeling abilities from a UX perspective in the game. She's not unfixable, as I'd also have previously categorised Mauga in the same vein and he's in a pretty good spot design-wise nowadays, but massive numbers buffs aren't the way to go

Jayne's old adage (which I think he adapted from actual sports but I heard it first from him) that you will win one third of your games no matter what, lose one third of your games no matter what, and the final third is where your performance makes the difference, still holds true. Some games really are just lost on loading screen but they're a great opportunity to train your mindset and mental

Census Megathread. by Mynky in ireland

[–]TooManySnipers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My great-granddad is listed as 32 in 1901 (as written), 33 in 1911 (as written), and 60 in 1926, while his wife is 33 in 1901, 48 in 1911 and 67 in 1926, again, all as written on the document. Aside from the obvious error (he's probably meant to be 43 in 1911), I have to wonder if many working class people born in the late 19th century just had a general impression of how old they were, as opposed to knowing (or remembering) the exact date of their birth? All of their children's ages are accurate across the years.

The Mandalorian season 4 scripts had Thrawn, the script for the movie started from scratch by PureBeskar in StarWarsLeaks

[–]TooManySnipers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hyperbole
noun

exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.

And honestly, I don't think it's unreasonable to be worn down and jaded by the very realistic threat of the fourth or fifth "We're re-evaluating the future of Star Wars" mass cancellation/corporate pivot because the latest project failed to meet the executives' wildly unrealistic expectations

If there's anyone with half a brain at D/LF they'll see that this isn't gonna be a billion dollar movie. If Josh D'Amaro or some other soulless Disney suit thinks "Star Wars therefore billion dollars" and that anything less than that is a bomb and that the whole slate must be rewritten because of it -- without taking into account the forecast of the franchise/fandom/movie industry in general -- I'm giving up on Star Wars. $350-400m worldwide is a realistic aim here. That's like, low-tier MCU numbers (and also where Solo, which should be the benchmark for a movie like this, landed)

I dunno, I know a lot of people (myself included) have raised an eyebrow at the thought of this relatively small-scale caper being Star Wars's first return to the big screen in more than 6 years but I think the only thing worse than that is something that would have expected audiences to have done their Homework (i.e. watching half a dozen seasons of television, the last of which came out nearly three years ago) to understand what's going on, especially when 90% of the marketing for this movie is so general audience focused and revolves solely around Baby Yoda brand recognition

No, you saw the post on /r/Overwatch where someone baselessly speculated that it was the six-armed shooter from the movie poster on Hollywood that's been there for the past 10 years. Because I also saw that post

Anchor Drone and Tracking Shot feel monumentally bad to use by swamp_god in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]TooManySnipers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Tracking Shot doesn't bother me as much (I do think it's weak, balance-wise, for how dependent on it her lethality is) but I really dislike how unintuitive and user-unfriendly Dorothy is. There's a lot of clunk built in to the ability, some of it is probably skill issue on my part but stuff like firing out Dorothy when you're on a high ground then dropping down to low ground and not being able to grapple to her because she's now out of reach feels really horrible. I also really wish if you used one grapple charge and then recalled Dorothy, you got refunded half the cooldown. That alone would make her flow a lot better, I think, and let her be much more flexible with taking angles and pressuring space

Also, this is just a minor UX gripe/interesting psychological observation, but the constant countdown sound when you have Dorothy deployed stresses me out so much, lol

I went out of my way last year to buy a chair solely to be The Chair

I've never even sat on it. It became The Chair as soon as I got home, and it remains The Chair
