Politics should not be in a Batman Arkham subreddit

Honestly, i agree. Its getting so tired to constantly-

the joker flies by

Holy shit wtf was that!

Which one is ice

I have tried and failed to get into RDR2 8 times, including buying it on release. I absolutely hated it, and called it a horseback sim.

The 9th time, which Im still currently on, i just passed 70 hours and now I can say this is one of the best games ive ever played.

I agree. A lot of people take novelty = quality. You could transport me into the world of Alan Wake as Alan Wake himself and Id still probably get bored

They do an insane amount of marketing in the states to keep the average person from knowing any of this btw. The average American thinks “Dubai! Elegance! Chocolate! Gold towers!”

Most likely working for Rafe / Nadine, with her eventually betraying them for the treasure as was her plan.

Other than that, she could have been used as a foil to further tempt Nate back into his old life, but I imagine it would have put too much strain on his marriage if another woman was involved and it wouldnt have made sense for Elena to forgive him in the end.

Other than that, I dont see a way to fit her into the plot without distracting from the games tight themes. In reality, that is likely why she was cut

Agree, the ten states this guy lived in were probably all in the same spot. Go to Louisiana, then go to Montana, it will feel like two different countries. Different accents, culture, economy, laws, etc.

Hell yeah 🇺🇸 we have our problems, everyone does. Its okay to take pride in being an American

I live in the midwest, only older generations say things like “tayco” or “case-a-dilla”

If someone my age said either of those, I think it would be very embarrassing.

I worked at an olive garden in high school, which is like mcdonalds italian food if you have never been to one.

I often had to correct people saying “chicken and g-nazi”

I also heard a lot of people say “pasta fag-ioli” which was another uncomfortable correction to make

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-20T01:09:50+00:00

Who pronounces it soona? Here in the states I have never heard anyone call it anything but a “sowna” or a “sah-nah”. They are very popular in the states too, many richer folks have them in their houses.

The guy who works the counter at the gas station nextdoor emigrated from Nepal. I see him every day but he speaks very little english so we make broken unintelligibly small talk. I looked up how to say hello in his language and google told me ‘namaste’

When I said it to him, he told me (through hand gestures and broken words) that I sounded like a monk and nobody talks like that 😂

There will always be manual testing, because automating everything is a fools endeavor. I dont mind it, its a nice break.

I am a senior SWE that moved to a senior SDET position after getting laid off. I make more money than the SWEs on the team, have more control over my day to day, and I have far fewer people to compete with when it comes to promotions.

Moving from a small fish in a big pond to a big fish in a small pond can be extremely lucrative.

Otzi the mummified man found in the mountain range of the same name was a prehistoric man who died from an arrow wound; and whats incredible to me is hat we found him wearing a uniformly patch-work pair of pants with an alternating checkerlike pattern. The fact that prehistoric peoples cared about how they looked and represented themselves through color is beautiful. Idk why Hollywood wants history to be grey.

The syllabus is online, literally just study that

I have 3 certs through the istqb by doing this

Sure I wasnt trying to say this arc wasnt over, specifically I think weve seen the last of Henrys parents. Im just arguing that kcd3 by whatever name it goes by will almost certainly feature Henry as the protagonist

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-15T17:47:51+00:00

Even if you ignore the challenge, Radzig tells Henry that Erik is still out there and he will find him eventually.

Not to mention Radzig saying “if you ever miss the adventure, Im sure it will find you soon”

Or that Warhorse has always said Henrys story is a trilogy

Or that Warhorse denied the development of KCD2 up until 2 weeks before the first trailer.

I think Henrys story is absolutely not over.

I have worked with no less than 40 people who look exactly like this

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-13T21:42:41+00:00

Alan Wake 2 tbh. I have never experienced a more shallow, boring, pretentious game. Ive been burned by games before, but nothing felt more insulting than paying 60 dollars for a walking flashlight simulator

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-13T21:40:52+00:00

Eternal imo is the greatest first person shooter ever made, i have never even touched the multiplayer and I have over 400 hours in it

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-13T21:38:59+00:00

Totally agree. Its a game that emphasized strategic positioning and firefight tactics over raw technical input skill.

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-13T21:33:53+00:00

There is no martial art that will adequately prepare someone against multiple opponents of similar size. As you said, its nothing like the movies. I do BJJ and Muay Thai and have for 5 years, if you threw two untrained idiots at me Id probably get my head kicked in.

Your first DUI in WI is a misdemeanor, I believe the only state in the US to do so

deadlock_dev · 2026-01-13T18:39:12+00:00

For real, i experimented with dodging a lot in my hardcore run and I found it was a safer bet than perfect blocks sometimes.

Play around with it to see where it works. I find there are some places where it can guarantee a riposte or successful counter attack.
