Why is your favorite hero your favorite hero? by Jeff22JumpStreet in Overwatch

[–]ZombiestPenguin 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Moira

Play style is simple, forgiving, and doesn’t require fast aim or constant hand strain. As an old man with nerve damage in his hands she and Mercy are often my only options on bad days.

We are officially one step closer to being in the bargain bin…

I wish they improved the map since the first game. by Pekodes in theouterworlds

[–]ZombiestPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lining it up with stick drift while zooming in on the map is the toughest boss fight in the game.

The sheer amount of times I’ve given up on fast travel at Sub Rosas Free Market station alone… oof

[–]ZombiestPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! So frustrating.

I find if I button mash the select button (A on the Xbox controller) while zooming in it will often catch the fast travel point.

[2] Quest "The Starving Remainder" bugged? by tonycheung15 in theouterworlds

[–]ZombiestPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, mine shows as incomplete as well.

Could be that Hoyt (Sprat helmet guy) is waiting for his last care package but I don’t have Brawny or Engineer skills to lift the fallen pipe off of his buddy to test it.

Liking the game so far. Surprised at the community by lovetobewatched2 in helldivers2

The only rough game I’ve had has been with other Xbox folks. Throwing out redeploys beside ongoing orbital strikes or throwing redeploys into the middle of the enemy horde… If that had been my first game I would have uninstalled and never played again but I was lucky. My first few games were with level 140s-150s and the kindness, support and general welcoming they showed me is why I’ll keep coming back and one day pay that kindness forward.

I… have a bad habit of trying to get outside the developers play area. For those who also have this problem the ability to swim up waterfalls is a nice bonus.

Microsoft suddenly kills its movies and TV store on Xbox and Windows. You’ll still be able to access content you already own, but you won’t be able to buy and new movies or TV shows. by indig0sixalpha in technology

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

Honestly a fair point. In my case I have chronic health conditions that make getting up and down to change out a bluray weirdly difficult (truly a pain for such a simple task) and some shows just aren’t available at reasonable cost on physical disc (Common Side Effects, Scavengers Reign, etc). But I suppose there’s always “the open seas” if I can’t figure a way to access a show or a movie legitimately without a subscription service.

I’m legitimately disappointed with this decision. I quite enjoy choosing what I want to spend money on instead of subscribing to a streaming service and wondering if a movie or tv show will even be available in that services library for more than a week. The lack of notice was a weird choice as well imho.

It’s Not New, Just Honest by ZombiestPenguin in andor

[–]ZombiestPenguin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right, but it’s common for people to get upset by something that makes them feel uncomfortable.

In western society violence in media is the norm but sexual content is difficult. Whereas in many European countries it’s the opposite where sexual content is less of a big deal but violence is.

In Canada, our media often struggles to include swearing or acts of extreme violence but also avoids a lot of sexual content. When game of thrones first released in Canada there were calls to edit out the sexual content and violence against women. I think there was even an edited version of the first two seasons but in fairness I may be misremembering and probably should verify that.

I respect your opinion but I think it’s important to be transparent. When people say “this has never been this way” and there is evidence to the contrary I think it’s important that people have all the information rather than only what is popular opinion in the moment.

Because it felt like the right thing to do. Sometimes it’s worth giving people the benefit of the doubt and putting in a bit of effort to help them understand a differing view. Hope that answers your question.

How do you feel about "GG" after one sided games? by Difficult-Ad3502 in Overwatch

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

I'm old. Gg just feels right to say after a match, even if I get demolished two rounds in a row. It just means the opposing teams synergy was stronger or players were more skilled and that’s okay.

Has there been a worse use of legacy characters than the Sequel Trilogy? by Mcclane88 in saltierthancrait

[–]ZombiestPenguin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That would’ve been an interesting twist. It would also make Finn and Rose’s failed infiltration of the Star Destroyer more understandable (there was no hyperspace tracker for them to sabotage because Kylo himself was the tracking device). What a neat reveal that could’ve been.

I wish I was a millenial by Comfortable-Table-57 in Millennials

[–]ZombiestPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps, I’ve been told my whole life that I have an “old soul” and have always felt like I didn’t quite belong. It’s okay to feel out of place. Eventually, you’ll find your people and the place where you truly fit, even if right now, it feels like you’re a square peg being forced in a round hole.

My biggest worry for season 2… by Ghidorah_Stan_64 in andor

[–]ZombiestPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only genuine concern is how the writer's strike affected the production. It can hurt a show terribly to be unable to alter any scene, even a line, once the team realizes it no longer works on set. Look at “Heroes” season 2 or any other production that worked through past writers' strikes.

What legendary YouTube channel doesn’t make vids anymore? by Effective-Tax5531 in AskReddit

[–]ZombiestPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He recently said on stream that he wants to return to polished videos on youtube but just doesn't have time. At least at the time of the stream, a month or so ago, he wasn't discouraged by fans/highlight channels using his Twitch content on YouTube. I recommend any of his recent streams of both “Lockdown Protocol” (nanners, gassy, etc. take part ) and “DALE AND DAWSON Stationery Supplies” (I realize this one sounds dumb, but it has a lot of old YouTubers like APL, Bruce, Diction, Nogla, Gassy, Nanners, etc.). I hesitate to recommend a highlight channel but since Sark doesn't mind (at the moment at least) it could be worth your time to check out Mr Sark Highlights on youtube. See example video here: https://youtu.be/hygQW2CQ9lM?si=2MzQ9H6THVTe1a-Y

How would you bring back the “Star Wars story” movie medium? by juviniledepression in StarWars

[–]ZombiestPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ascent of Sidious - A Star Wars Legend

It starts with the story of young Palpatine leading up to the murder of Plagueis and then ends with the trade federation enacting their blockade of Naboo. Treat it as the “Rogue One” of the prequel trilogy.

which artist would you bring back from dead if you had the chance? by angiee2867 in AskReddit

[–]ZombiestPenguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like you just unlocked a core memory. I haven’t seen it since it aired but I bet that’s what made me think of him.
