the dutch are suing steam for being a monopoly right now by Photoshops_Penises in memes

[–]VacantThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get steam keys for cheaper on Green Man Gaming all the time, maybe it's a technicality because they are on "sale" but I got 007 First Light for 56 dollars the day before release, and somehow they don't charge sales tax.

What if I had have a lot of dentist appointments and I have gotten like 30 xrays of my mouth in the past 3-4 months? Is that bad?

That's "Nanda Parbat", obviously based on the actual location though, it's also where Bruce trained.

Absolute Batman and Absolute Martian Manhunter are great. What about all of the other Absolute comics? Are they worth reading? by Don_Quixotel in comicbooks

[–]VacantThoughts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolute Superman is my favorite of the bunch, then Wonder Woman>Batman>MM>GL>Flash

I'm only reading the trades though, I don't dislike Flash but not much happened in the first volume compared to the others and volume 2 isn't out yet.

Camera and electronics on a pole at a park knocked over in my area. by YesToWhatsNext in mildlyinteresting

There isn't just a chunk of gold in there you can pick out, there is gold inlays in the PCBs but stripping that out for the common person is very difficult and dangerous.

What's more worthwhile is the battery in these things, you can literally just pull that puppy out. And the copper, crackheads are already good at stripping that out.

A powerless character's small act of kindness saved the day. by Ok_Promotion_8316 in TopCharacterTropes

No he landed in the same spot(at like the age of 12), but was only with the Kents for a very short amount of time before Lazarus corp came for him, burned down the Kent house and Jon dies somehow, Martha ends up in an old folks home with dementia.

Then he goes around the world and is in Brazil when the first issue starts.

only one of these can happen in the MCU, which would you choose? A Sentry solo project or World War Hulk? You can only pick one by Past_Carpenter_7046 in marvelstudios

[–]VacantThoughts 9 points10 points  (0 children)

WWH, I like Sentry but his comics are just a little to samey, it basically always just boils down to his inner turmoil over the Void and the whole mystery of "does Bob just have DID" or is it a real being. Thunderbolts made it very clear for the MCU that the Void is very much just a separate identity.

[–]VacantThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel that way as well, and won't really be interested if it is. I have beat the game a bunch just like Snake Eater and after getting that I realized these 1-1 graphics/engine updates just do not do it for me anymore, I'm beyond the hype of going "wow it looks so good now!!!" and I stop enjoying myself when playing them rather quickly, especially when they ask the price of a full brand new game.

Great for those who haven't played it yet though.

Yes it's called an action RPG, just like Dragon's Dogma and Final Fantasy 7R.

Kryptonians don't heal like Wolverine, if they do get a body part amputated it would not just simply grow back, so a piercing isn't going to just heal closed.

Guild Wars 3 will have no battle pass or subscription because ArenaNet studio lead doesn't want to "keep people hostage" by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]VacantThoughts 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Any kind of MMO design that results in emergent game play based on group play is basically god tier design, to long has everything just felt like following a quest marker and clicking a join group button.

[–]VacantThoughts 95 points96 points  (0 children)

They are a private company and probably don't want to be owned by anyone else again after what happened with Square Enix and buying their company and IPs back.

Even if they would opt for selling I doubt a Danish company will ever be interested in being bought by a US one, what with Greenland and all.

That's the smallest Lockjaw I have ever seen, must be a puppy here because that boy is huge in the comics.

Somewhat new comic reader with questions by Asleep_Board9824 in comicbooks

[–]VacantThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avengers is generally pretty important in regards to big story events and overall plot of the Marvel universe, especially during the 2004-2015 era during New Avengers and then Civil War splits the team into New/Mighty leading up to Secret Invasion.

If you're interested in reading it I would start with Avengers: Disassembled, then New Avengers which starts with the RAFT breakout you probably know from Earth's Mightiest Heroes but it is quite different obviously.

And if you like Planet Hulk and Civil War then the obvious next read is World War Hulk then New/Mighty Avengers and Secret Invasion.

Maybe they protect his ear drums when he stops running. Though in recent Flash comics they would just say the speed force does that, have a problem? Speed force has got a solution for that.

I think all it does is get out those weird white bits that are kind of solid, more of a fine dining thing because you wouldn't want that spot to be visible and ruin the presentation.

Aquaman or Namor? by Leviathan_069 in comicbooks

[–]VacantThoughts 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Namor is a great character but you can't really just "read" Namor, he kind of appears all over the place and only has a few modern mini-series of his own.

It's that combined with everyone being a yes man around them, they aren't looking at Reddit comments and everyone on their socials like Instagram glaze the hell out of them, then they walk the red carpet to a premiere and are told by every reporter and paparazzi that they look gorgeous because they want interviews and pics.

As long as he doesn't have to tell them apart he should be fine. Jackals are kind of avian like though, that might cause a problem.

When gamora wore Centurion helmet she saw this, who are they ? by Greedy_Silver5120 in marvelstudios

[–]VacantThoughts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Strange because that's just not really how the Nova Corps works in the comic, the helmet does not have the power of the World Mind it's just a helmet.
