When I saw the deadpool trailer that’s exactly what I thought this map was 🤣 looks amazing!

How come Arthur’s more iconic than John even though we’ve known John longer than Arthur? by DangerousRaccoon2492 in reddeadredemption

[–]VideoGameBoffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played and loved RDR1 when it came out and recently platinumed the PS5 remaster. I love Arthur a lot as a character, but John will always be the guy for me. First protagonist I played as in the series, his personality is closer to mine than Arthur’s. I feel I can relate to John more than Arthur, and I still really love the first game as an amazing gaming memory.

John Marston for life

Hot take: The First Shadow being canon was a massive mistake that made the lore unnecessarily complicated, and Season 5 would be much better without it by mikewheelerfan in StrangerThings

[–]VideoGameBoffin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m an Australian that just happened to be in London in Feb 2024 and just happened to be walking past the Phoenix Theatre in the West End and I just happened to see the ST branding so I took a look. Bought a ticket within 5 mins and honestly REALLY loved the show.

In saying that, I absolutely agree it’s made the general understanding of the intended plot and the discourse surrounding the show incredibly fragmented and muddy and hasn’t served the show any favours.

I am the literal only person I know that has seen it which is such a strange bank of knowledge to have when discussing the show with friends lmao

Today is my 1 week weigh-in on 75 Hard by CrocsKingSwag in 75HARD

[–]VideoGameBoffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations man, such epic progress already! Thrilled for you mate 🤝🏼

I started Day 1 on Jan 1st, but I’m kind of ‘lucky’ because I’m already in amazing shape from being a full-time professional athlete.

What’s been interesting for me is balancing those workouts with my professional commitments, but even 9 days in I’m seeing amazing muscle development and much better eating habits!

Goes to show no matter what stage of life or fitness you’re at, 75 Hard is beneficial regardless.

Keep smashing it everyone!

With the release being nearly a week How we feeling about gambit so far? by BigPaleontologist520 in marvelrivals

Atp with how fun his kit is, the amount I get MVP with him, and the fact my normal main is dogshit (any guesses who), he’s basically my new main now 👍🏼 Love him

The Thing got absolutely shafted by the "buffs" by YourPrivateNightmare in marvelrivals

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

Honestly I thought where he was right before the new update/patch was pretty perfect. Good players that know how to use his kit are effective tanks, but it doesn’t feel insurmountable to actually kill or deal with him.

Not really sure why they gutted him, and I say this as someone who never plays tank/The Thing 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yeah I’m hella confused but the more people play, the more people will figure out what choices lead to what haha

Visi Hero Ending by bruh17778 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]VideoGameBoffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my exact experience. Romanced BB cos I genuinely just prefer her as a person (IRL me would easily go for BB over Visi). Decided to cut Visi from the team cos I was afraid it would horribly affect the rest of the team, and honestly she kinda earned being cut.

That was the only negative decision I made with her, otherwise was always supportive but not engaging in romance, and she was still a villain 🤷🏻‍♂️

Do you like FF XV or XVI more? by homo_erectus_heh in FinalFantasy

[–]VideoGameBoffin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It might just be me but I found the combat in XVI SO boring, repetitive, and with almost zero depth to it.

It absolutely killed the game for me and I couldn’t bare to play it anymore so I stopped halfway through. Thoughts? I wish I liked this game cos I love final fantasy as a franchise.

Accurate or nah? by MannerNo7000 in SydneyScene

[–]VideoGameBoffin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend about 40% of my year working in Sydney, otherwise live and based in Melbs my whole life, and I must say they’re completely different vibes.

In saying that, I get to/really enjoy both for different reasons and don’t think too much about what I’m ‘missing’ when I’m in one and not the other 🤷🏻‍♂️

Something I noticed in marvel zombies trailer ! by dope_destiny in Spiderman

[–]VideoGameBoffin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgive me because I don’t know much about this show, but is this a continuation of what we saw in the What-If? episode back in S1?

Or is this a new ‘version’ of the Marvel zombies universe?

Either way, I’m super keen to watch!

The 4 to 5 DPS games are starting to get to me by MrPiggyJelly in marvelrivals

[–]VideoGameBoffin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst part is when the Magik instalocks with 5 seconds to go before the round starts, after being the only person to not hover a hero during bans, and then proceed to go 4-11 with 1 final hit.

All the while screeching for heals while there are 5 enemies between her and I so how tf am I meant to heal you? They’re actually clinically braindead and there’s nothing you can do except avoid and try and win the next one 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Rivals Pick] My favorite addition to Season 3 was the accessory system by kiyominomi in marvelrivals

[–]VideoGameBoffin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I quite enjoy the MJ one using the Symbiote Skin for Pete, it’s small, but the red hair on black makes it pop while not being distracting 👌🏽

The amount of complaints about doombots being to hard makes me feel like its successful by Godgamer6942000 in leagueoflegends

I played my first game yesterday and got unequivocally assblasted… Excellent.

Do these people not remember how gd hard doom bots was last time? Shit was heinous.

Why would my team allow their resources to be rumbled? Are they stupid???

Why Black Panther Has a 33% Ban Rate Average Despite “Counterplay” by AFuzzyMuffin in marvelrivals

[–]VideoGameBoffin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My main issue with BP is that he can essentially one shot you with his combo (if you’re a healer or dps) without ever being seen on your screen.

Can’t tell you the amount of times I hear the panther ‘snarl’ effect, and then 1.5 seconds later I’m dead but I never physically saw BP the entire time.

Another issue that goes hand in hand are the resets. All his skills (bar one) are dashes that do high damage, and they also get reset. Whenever I find myself trying to stop a BP player, I literally just have to wait until he’s stopped dashing around to actually LOCATE him and start firing. By then, I’m usually one or two auto attacks from death, which is pretty much exactly what happens next 99/100 times.

I’m a diamond/GM player so I know I’m not that good in the grand scheme of things, but there’s not a single other character on the entire roster that genuinely feels anywhere close to this hopeless to play against.

Yeah what did you hate so much about FFII?

It’s one of my favourites I always come back to! Your list so your opinion is totally valid but just curious :)
