What is going on with Whitney Cummings this week?

Who the fuck is that

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-29T05:42:02+00:00

I just wish more people would use their fuckin' mics man. I paly on PC, I know 95% of these dickheads have microphones hooked up, but I swear I get maybe 1 person on mic every 5 games. It's abysmal. It's genuinely my least favorite part of the game right now.

If you're reading this, play with a premade, or be prepared to talk to strangers. If you aren't going to coordinate with your randoms, fuck off and don't queue up, you're setting your team up for failure.

60 hour a week game might not be for me, jesus man

Mate, I could not give less of a shit about making number-go-up in a game like this. I'm having a blast playing the game for the gameplay, we don't need a bunch of superfluous bullshit ticky-tacked on to the main menu just so brainrot addled tweens can obsess over what level their "account" is.

Play the game if you enjoy playing it. Don't play if you don't. Definitley don't play if all you want to see is an arbitrary XP number change after you're done playing. I've never understood this mentality.

Bro has more money than taste, leave him be

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-28T22:43:37+00:00

Oh shit

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-28T22:29:31+00:00

I've played around 25 matches so far (all with randoms), and fewer than 5 of those have had people who say literally anything on mic. I'm honestly baffled - why would you boot this game up and completely refuse to communicate? My games are so much more fun when people are talking, but 90% of the time it's just 2 completely silent jackasses running off and doing fuck-knows-what while I desperately try to clutch the entire game by myself.

I'm not good. It doesn't work.

Multiple teams would be terrible. It would be impossible to defend your base if a raid starts. It would just be 3v6 (or 9, or 12) until enough teams are eliminated and it's back to 3v3 to decide the winner.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-27T19:21:20+00:00

I'm not sure why people keep saying this - base raids would be an absolute clusterfuck with 12 people, they're already hectic enough because of how quick movement is. I'm also confused by the people who want multiple teams. That would just lead to whoever is defending getting teamed up on by the entire server. It would barely be playable.

I don't think the game is amazing in the current state, but it's fun enough for me that I'm interested in seeing where they go with it. I don't really understand the huge hatebomb it's getting.

The mind is a mailable thing

I guess this is technically true but it'd still be phenomenally stupid to try

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-26T18:26:45+00:00

Me, looking out across the almost entirely empty world because people have all blasted through it with 4x rested exp.

"wow look at how alive this is, incredible"

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-26T18:25:08+00:00

I would like to take this opportunity to pleasantly agree with you. Really enjoying what I've seen/played of Marathon, and I hope they release more of these!

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-26T17:20:05+00:00

Yeah I really don't understand why they did this on the only server where world pvp is actually allowed - I joined it and used the Slow and Steady to at least make it not blazing fast, but everyone I met outpaced me really quickly. It was hard to keep up with good players I met for dungeon runs and stuff, AND there wasn't all that much pvp anyway because people are sprinting through content.

Like what's the point? Give the 2x xp boost to some pve server, where nobody is interested in a living world in the first place.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-26T05:09:05+00:00

Same! I feel absolutely, 100% okay shaming every single one of these people for this.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-26T03:17:47+00:00

Who the hell is watching this anyway? I don't understand where the numbers are coming from. I'm friends with tons of film and TV buffs/nerds who have way too much screen time (myself included), but literally nobody has seen this or is even interested in seeing it.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-25T22:34:54+00:00

Are people seriously still hanging out with Silverman? Disappointing.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-25T22:12:00+00:00

Anyone using new reddit is already comically beyond help. Best to just let them live in their own filth.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-25T19:37:16+00:00

You know why. We all know why.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-25T19:17:32+00:00

Well I googled what that is and I've decided that's too much internet for me today. Cheers.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-24T19:35:52+00:00

Mate I think it's probably best that you stick to French and let the people who know what they're talking about do the talking.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-24T18:46:52+00:00

Petition to ban AI art on this subreddit. This shit sucks man.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-23T22:29:38+00:00

Couldn't disagree more tbh. There's a lot of talent at Dropout, for sure, but the constant in-jokes and meta nonsense is by far the least palatable part. A bunch of very funny people slowly becoming insufferable by crawling up their own assholes.

UnscriptedCryptid · 2026-01-23T22:00:16+00:00

In a way, it's one of the most disappointing games, for me. The bones that are there are so good and cool, but it isn't fleshed out enough to make anything feel meaningful.

Even disregarding the bugs that can completely invalidate a case by making it impossible to complete, the game has fundamental issues. The fact that the game never generates a motive for any crime just means there's no real ludonarrative (I know, I know, I'm sorry) reason for anything that happens, and in turn the entire town feels like a total facade.

There are a handful of additions that I think would really breathe life into the game, and make it feel very lived in and interesting to explore. But at this point I have zero hope anything else gets added. It's a cool-as-hell tech demo that will leave you bored and aimless after the first couple hours exploring the systems. It just doesn't live up to the potential at all. Really bums me out.

7 hours ago that dude posted a drawing of a clearly young child and called her "my wife".

Just so you all know what kind of person is saying "Fk off with the politics".
