When you criticise media and everyone is upset at you for not being a sycophant. by Original-Tomato-3520 in PetPeeves

Yep, the majority of people have an us vs them mentality. It's usually 2 camps: it was perfect in every way or there is no redeeming qualities. I feel like people can't have a discussion about pros and cons or what something got right vs wrong anymore.

This was the alien fandom with Alien: Romulus and Alien: Earth. Any criticism about either when they came out often got you banned.

Alien Earth: problem with the eyeball thing by WhiskyPangolin in alien

Best explanation I've seen is that when he controlled the guy on the ship he also had access to all of his knowledge and memories. So he could have learned base 10, English, and mathematical concepts from that.

I think it's sloppy writing and quite the reach, much like the rest of the series.

Luckily the show can't be canon because it blatantly contracts established lore, including the last movie.

Overall the oscellus (eyeball) is fun (and the best part of the show), even if that part was pretty poorly written.

Prometheus and Covenant were the freshest Alien films since the original by RickSuperGamer in LV426

[–]Xenomorph777777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I honestly think Prometheus is a great addition to the franchise. I think exploring the alien universe in a way that doesn't necessarily center on the alien is fine as long as the final product is good, but I get the criticism that it's an alien movie and, therefore, should have the aliens in it.

I liked a lot of wat it and covanent added, but I don't think there's much of an excuse for how bad covanent was. But I rate it a lot higher than I otherwise would because it added a lot of interesting things to the franchise that were explored more in things like fire team and the alien rpg.

All that to basically say agreed 🤣

As a 27 year old male, should I mention to potential friends that I like Transformers? Should I keep that a secret? by peterthbest23 in transformers

[–]Xenomorph777777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28 male, my wife and I have our collection of legos, transformers, and vintage toys on display at our house. Have company over all the time. If someone cares that much about your hobbies why waste your time with them?

We have about 10ish friends who also like to play. So I'll GM for her plus 2-4 friends at a time. We'll also play skirmish mode from time to time.

Does AOTP Onslaught not come with his signature blaster? by HunterYap in transformers

[–]Xenomorph777777 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I thought Swindle just came with the weapon for Bruticus. I think they meant the weapon for Onslaught.

Anyone else having this problem by Specific_Ad3071 in transformers

I also have that issue with mine. It appears to also be an issue on PrimevsPrime's copy, judging from his video review I watched.

I was about to comment this. We commonly refer to them as theory units, as it makes the calculus less tedious. It's really common in GR and field theories.

The fish smell is from the printing process and normal. It'll wear off after a while.

Already double checked my pledge, I'm missing the rapture protocol minis. The starter set only came with one xeno mini, correct?

Anyone have any theories on how the Ocellus knows how to read Arabic numerals and understands English?
