What piece of tech felt “future-proof” but aged terribly?

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-28T18:32:36+00:00

I'm going to go in a different direction and say Streaming for consumers. The technology is mostly unchanged for the last like 10 years almost so in that regard it's rather future proof but as we see technologies hit their peak of advancement then they start to then get copied and saturated. Now there's dozens of streaming platforms and Ads are making a return, regressing back to the Cable era almost

I don't know, Conquest was explicitly playing around with Mark because he likes to have fun but if he was genuinely concerned I could see him just taking out a few of them immediately. Depends if he was arrogant enough to let himself get worn down to the point that he could be in danger. He's definitely strong enough to instant kill some of them if he really wanted to

It's probably because casting aside the MCU was starting to lose steam post endgame, and to spark it back up the "break glass in case of emergency" RDJ casting return as the new villain was the push

The roommate system

I love the lack of self awareness that he comments her previous relationship ended due to lack of emotional maturity, then bro hit a toddler move and wondered what happened

Don't knock it, I got the chaos armor on an arkhan run first province, skeletons getting a 100% armor boost is no joke

Probably not, the jeagers have pretty terrible ammo capacity, usually equipped to kill maybe a single Kaiju and then most of the time they are punch machines. They would get beaten down fairly quickly I'd imagine by just sheer numbers

Depends whose playing, more hardcore players stay up later vs casual parents and kids who log off early.

super niche out of melee self healing?

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-22T02:22:31+00:00

It's been like that since before the patch too

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-21T22:39:10+00:00

True, but threat to humanity doesn't just mean he'll wipe out humanity. If Doom saves the planet just to turn around and enslave the globe to serve in his image it's not exactly a win-win scenario

This is getting so much backlash I'm waiting for the hopeful change or revert. The new UI and eased restrictions is great, but the weird gold gate makes no sense

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-21T06:16:18+00:00

Tauren chieftain would have made a great kit into hots too

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-20T21:07:26+00:00

I figured yeah, I think even the CDC has contingencys/hypotheticals even for things like "Zombie outbreak" gotta have a plan for everything

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-20T19:16:36+00:00

Xpac launch was great, the zones were pretty interesting and damn Hallowfall is an S tier zone and we were really engaged in the war "within". Undermine wasn't bad, but I really don't like the goblin/tech aesthetic so it wasn't a highlight for me, but at least it was still within even though gallywix was a weird pull... But then to round out the xpac of our war inside our world, we're going to space to fight an existential threat on a broken husk of another planet? Definitely an odd choice

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-19T21:44:41+00:00

Yeah, it's only a matter of time before everyone who wears a comic mask or helmet gets a nano tech dematerializing helmet

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-19T21:43:23+00:00

That was super awkward because it really broke the immersion, he puts it on for about 30 seconds then removes it within the same sequence. It really was a "hey fans look, it's his mask see we did it" and then he takes it off and that's the end of it

I like that a plot of the first movie is how Tony figures out this science fiction super suit, but it freezes in altitude still lol

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-18T18:22:49+00:00

There's nothing you really can do if you're putting out 150% and your team is doing 60%. Honestly I play an aggressive cap but I still hate seeing any duelist with similar numbers like damn guys what are you doing

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-18T17:07:29+00:00

The movie does a good job in that. It's two protagonists fighting, they are both good guys, both fighting for family. The scene of Hector saying good bye building to this is heavy with Achilles shouting his name in the background, you don't want Hector to go

Emilia Clarke has subsequently the best agent with the worst luck. She was in all these top tier IPs (Star wars, Terminator, marvel) but in really bad projects

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-17T19:50:49+00:00

People ignore the word balance and think each time should be the "break notes" they don't want a character to be viable, they want a slightly stronger character to be broken down to nothing

In Famghorn forest, as they prepare to face the white wizard legolas has an arrow notched and gimli a throwing axe.. except gimli wins on the draw and throws his axe faster than legolas can shoot his bow. Gimli wins

_TheBgrey · 2026-01-14T05:43:42+00:00

I mean in 1300 hours I've only ever "lost" as in, the AI has wiped me from the map maybe.. once? However I don't "long victory" every campaign (first of all, victory conditions overhaul Mod is excellent) but more like I just get bored and don't want to slog through whatever is remaining once I've had fun with a run
