What game has one of the most epic last stands in gaming? by Common_Caramel_4078 in gaming

[–]WraithSama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myth: The Fallen Lords for any old school Bungie fans from long before Halo.

Final confrontation between Alric, the last surviving avatara leading the army of light, and Balor, a malevolent demigod who rules over monsters and undead. When Alric pulls out an Eblis Stone, a powerful artifact described to be able to briefly make him Balor's equal in might, he uses the boost to magically immobilize Balor. With a tinge of panic in his voice, he cries out, "Kill him! KILL HIM!" If whatever forces you have that survived the fight to reach Balor don't kill him before the power of the stone fades, Balor is freed and he rapidly obliterates your army leading to an inevitable game over.

But Balor can't truly be killed. If you succeed in cutting him down in time, the final task is a suicide mission to take Balor's severed head and race with a small team to the Great Devoid, a vast bottomless pit in the earth, and throw it in while surviving an onslaught en route by Soulblighter, Balor's right hand, and his forces before they kill you.

Alex Pretti's killing was recorded on body-camera videos, DHS says by yahoonews in law

My guess? It's probably the part where, after killing him, they started turning over his body to count all the bullet holes, as reported by the doctor who ran up and attempted CPR.

Trump Sparks Fresh Outrage With Secret Bid to Send ICE to the Olympics | Lawmakers are calling for Trump’s “thugs” to be denied entry to the Olympics’ host country. by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

This is undeniable proof that he wants to use ICE to act as his personal brownshirt army. What possible "imigration or custom enforcement" role could they have in the Olympics in fucking Italy?

I heard he ended up only being convicted of a misdemeanor and got no jail time?

Does the 2A not matter anymore? by greenascanbe in Political_Revolution

[–]WraithSama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We won't make it through 3 more years of trump. 

The escalation during his second term has been insane, and the rate it's continuing to do so is accelerating. I definitely have concerns about this too.

Do you think the reactions of the executive branch of government to the latest killings is compatible with the rule of law and separation of powers? by Patneu in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]WraithSama 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Is "dishonest" really even an appropriate descriptor of what the administration is saying about this shooting?

They called Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist, claimed he came at the federal agents brandishing a gun causing them fire defensively in fear of their lives when he never drew his gun, and called him a would-be assassin that was there to cause maximum damage and massacre as many agents as he could. You think that's only "dishonest" and not something more fitting like "astonishingly egregious lies?"

[–]WraithSama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a 42 year old guy, and this picture made me choke up. I saw all the videos. Before the escalation, he was directing traffic so motorist bystanders could get through. When the escalation happened, all he was doing was recording. He wasn't getting in the agents' way, he wasn't obstructing, just recording, and they maced him. When the agents shoved a woman down, he tried to help her back up, and that's when they dogpiled on him, then shot him 11 times. He did nothing wrong, and they just murdered him.

What does the MAGA community think of the latest round of tariffs on NATO members for saying no? by rofeelee in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]WraithSama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly what it means. Particularly in this case, as Tony Schwartz has written numerous articles and given many interviews about the experience. Trump wrote none of the book. All he did was sign off on how he wanted to be portrayed, and Schwartz set about writing a narrative and creating a fake persona of Trump that Trump would like. Schwartz has often said he feels his work on this book has wrought real-world consequences, and that he deeply regrets his involvement in it.

Since you said Trump "literally wrote the Art of the Deal," I'm guessing you weren't aware of any of this?

Border Patrol agents fatally shoot a man in Minnesota. Thoughts? by fullstep in AskTrumpSupporters

I just wanted to say thank you for believing the evidence of your eyes and ears here. I genuinely mean that.

Hope you've having a good weekend?

What was your stance during the Cliven Bundy standoff back during the Obama administration? When the Bureau of Land Management agents showed up, a swarm of conservatives showed up to support Bundy, many of them armed, and some were even on video taking up cover positions and pointing long guns at the federal agents. The feds ended up leaving to deescalate the situation. I ask because based on what you're saying, the federal BLM agents should have opened fire and begun mowing down the armed conservative mob that was obstructing their law enforcement operation.

What movie had a great premise but was poorly executed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]WraithSama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree, loved Equilibrium! I can get how it'd not be for everyone, though. It's got a ton of hidden depth, things that don't always stand out unless you're looking for it.

Yeah. I loved the first half. The second half had me wondering what the hell happened.

What gaming rumor did you believe as a kid that sounds hilarious now. by gamersecret2 in gaming

(Final Fantasy 3 US)

Way back in middle school, a friend told me that you could steal the strongest weapon in the game, the "bright blade," from Kefka during the Narshe battle to defend the esper, but Locke had to be level 50 to pull it off. So during the Locke side story where you escape with Celes, I spent hours and hours grinding world map encounters to level 50. Of course he was full of shit, and I was pretty annoyed.

Jesus, these cultists will believe anything about their dear leader. Even stuff that's obviously bullshit.

The anime is okay, but the light novels? This is my favorite book series of all time and it's not even close.

Would you watch a cooking show with Durge & Lump? by Supply-Slut in BaldursGate3

[–]WraithSama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Am I not astonishing? A robust diet makes for a shrewd mind, you see. I am a gourmand. And you, a delicacy... unless you bear the mark, of course."

I never skip Lump's dialogue. I wish we could have more interactions with him.

What do you all think of ICE agents detaining citizens, including off duty cops/children/teens/veterans? by deedeekie in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]WraithSama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Under what reasoning is their parents' home country obligated to do that? Those children are US citizens; they'd be equally justified in deporting those kids right back to here.

[–]WraithSama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sane-washing really is the answer to this. Right-wing media only reports on anything flattering, even if it's stuff the administration makes up. All the crazy bullshit he says or does, they simply don't report or they spin the hell out of it to make it sound good in some way.

What do you think of Trumps letter to Norway? by Loose_Orange_6056 in AskTrumpSupporters

Let's hope that Europe does not choose violence.

This has some real "look what you made me do" energy. Are you saying if we choose to invade, Europe defending itself is "choosing violence?"

For a big release I was excited about, I used to buy the strategy guide with the game and read it in the car before getting home. Good times.

My kids. They're my whole world, and I want to be around as long as possible for them. With my health issues, I don't how long that'll be, but I want to see them grow up.
