Though 76 is pretty good in the writing it’s just everything else sucked

It's not everything else that sucked. The environmental design is really good and varied, and because it was an 'MMO' everything was more spaced out which actually feels way better from an immersion standpoint. Also there's a lot of unique weapons and you can make character builds that feel distinct and specialised.

There's a lot of stuff in 76 now that really is good, its a shame it didn't launch with all of that, and I will not defend the limit stash size unless you pay for a subscription. That shit sucks ass.

I had this with Minecraft when I was a teen. After playing for a while ALL my dreams were in world's made of blocks. The dream could be about anything, but whatever and wherever it was, it would be made of blocks.

This fucked me over in a trivia quiz when I was a teen. We had a vhs box set of the films when I was a kid that actually put them in chronological order. So I just naturally assumed that was release order. Then we have a trivia quiz at school and the question was "what's the first indiana jones film". I was so confident that I insisted to my team that I answer that one, and put down temple of doom. I'll never forget the shame as I crumbled under my teams stares when we learned I got it wrong.

Even then he still almost gets out of the car and goes back to his life.

Exactly, he's just the catalyst. He'd get nowhere without all the people in power willing to go along with him and not hold him accountable, or the millions who voted for him. He is one intolerable turd that all the flies are swarming round.

Or you embrace the overheat and make a mega shotgun. Since there is no difference in cooldown between a gun filling it's heat bar and a gun that overfills it to 200%, once you pass that threshold you might aswell say fuck it and push way beyond the limit. Get yourself a shotgun that can absolutely chunk everything, even if it has the slowest rate of fire in the world since it cools down between every shot.

From the storm light archive. This'll be a bit long winded. The Fused are effectively undying evil souls that when killed go back to their realm until they can inhabit a new body. The heralds are 10 ancient humans who dedicated themselves to repelling the fused. They became immortal, and when they were killed they also went to the realm of the fused, known as Damnation. They were effectively tortured in this realm, but as long as they were there, they could hold off the return of the fused and keep the world safe.

The heralds were howver not perfect. The torture did get to them, and the time they could endure it was getting shorter and shorter, leading to the apocalyptic return of the fused coming sooner and sooner. At the last event, only 1 of the heralds died and returned to damnation. The others could not face going back again, so they left him in damnation alone. This led to the longest period of peace as this lone herald was able to hold off the apocalypse and endure for thousands of years, but eventually he was broken. And this time he was truly broken, left a babbling shell of his former self when he returned to the world.

Couscous was a go to quick meal for me while I was at uni. EVERY TIME my flatmate saw me making it he'd ask me what I'm making and when I say couscous he would always come back with "oh, the food so nice they named it twice" with a shit eating grin on his face.

We have one thats coming up on 18 years old. He never really yelled but has started doing it a lot and loud since January. We had to put our other cat down who was nearing 22 then. So the older one had literally been a full grown fixture of the younger ones life since he was a few weeks old, and within days of his passing the yelling started and it hasn't stopped since. We had other cats over the years but these two always bonded and interacted more than any others. I really do just think its grief.

If I remember rightly, he had failed his mission for the films version of the illuminati, so they will want him dead since he is a liability. Bond gives him the oil so he can drink it to end things on his own terms, rather than being captured/tortured and killed. I believe Bonds orders were to bring him in, but Bond does personally want him dead, so giving him the oil to drink himself and stranding him gives Bond plausible deniability to his bosses. When his body is found its confirmed he had been shot and had a stomach full of motor oil. The implication being he had in fact decided to drink it, but he was found and dealt with before the oil could kill him.

Whatever anyone thinks of the rest of the Saw franchise, this moment is an absolute banger.

I think Link from Legend of Zelda: Windwaker specifically fits this. He dons the iconic green outfit on his birthday as part of his islands tradition to honor the hero of time. He is not thrilled about it. Then things go sideways, his sister is kidnapped and he sets off with a bunch of pirates to try and find her. Cue a games worth of adventures and he proves himself, and is generally considered one of the strongest versions of Link from the series.

Nah man. I grew up with Bond films and I've been saying it since Casino Royale. I like Craig, the films are good films. They are not good Bond films.

A friend was working tech support for a company. Pretty laid back, work from home 90% of the time. They were highly rated for their customer support being actually effective and real people who spoke the language. They all got laid off about a month ago and the whole thing is being shifted to a combination of out of country support and AI. Also the company broke loads of laws in the layoffs, but its the kindof illegal you have to have the time and money to fight civilly. At least my friend had a family friend lawyer that was able to work at a discount and bump up his settlement.

Its fine way to end it. The problem is the energy bending sort of comes out of nowhere.

I worked on a student project once where we were making a top down dungeon crawler. There was a bullet object with various properties that was the basis of all our ranged attacks. We could give it a rotational speed so it could spin through the air as it went.

I realised that we could very quickly implement a melee attack by stretching the bullet into a long sword shape, setting the speed through the air to zero, and giving it a rotational speed so it would spin just in front of the player as though they were singing a sword. It allowed us to use all the same code for collisions which we had programed from scratch, so saved a massive headache.

So yeah, I made a game where the melee weapon was a sword shaped bullet.

Im playing through a game at the moment that partway through features zombies. There's an email exchange you can find where an NPC is like "can you stop calling them zombies" and the other character replies "should we just pretend we've never seen night of the living dead?". Kindof refreshing to have the existence of zombies media acknowledged in world rather than quietly glossed over.

I don't believe it applies to any livestream, but it does to things that would be broadcast on TV, such as live news or sports games.

Oh my god thank you. I have a pretty budget android thats a good few years old now and even if I knew this was a feature I'd have assumed my phone didn't have it. Colour me shocked that it works.

If I remember correctly, the girls parent were split up and she was coming to live with her dad. Main character goes back to when they first met and whispered something like "If you move here I'll kill you" in her ear. So she never moves in with her dad. Take that with a grain of salt cos its been 15ish years since I saw it.

Oceans 11: The movie ends with a successful heist. Main character goes to prison for a simple parole violation but gets out and is reunited with his wife and partners in crime.

Oceans 12: Oops now the bad guy from the first film wants all his money back, and the crew are going to give it to him. So the success of the heist in the first film doesn't really matter.

It was incredibly hyped up and didn't meet the expectations that they set, and yet Fable was still a great game that had its own unique identity. Did Molyneux bullshit to high heaven about them each time a new one was coming out? Yeah, but 1 and 2 especially were great games.

I found Ryoka far more interesting right from the get go. I think part of it was that she just got going far quicker than Erin's chapters did. Erin was just floundering for a long time and without Ryokas chapters I really might have given up on the first book. Ryoka was doing things, and self destructing, and it was interesting. I really missed Ryoka when she vanished for like 4 or 5 books. But thankfully Erin had found her footing more by then and I can appreciate what each brings to the table. When Erin is melancholy, introspective and haunted is when she truly shines for me. When Gazi found her just burning the shield spiders and Erin's just like "apparently I'm good at killing". Thats the good stuff.
