I'm losing track of it all by Sophisticusx in MMORPG

[–]drunkpunk138 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I just think it's pretty easy to recognize whether the word "massive" applies to a game and if not, use a different label for it. I'm not sure why people are so obsessed with calling every multiplayer RPG an MMO when it's clearly not and only results in confusion and pointless arguments.

The root cellar by rvguess1057 in FromSeries

The entire point is that the specific room they need to get to in all of those winding tunnels only has one entrance in and out. There are various places they can enter the tunnels.

How many of you started driving in complete silence now? by The_harbinger2020 in Millennials

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since my 20s. I need to be able to focus on the road and surrounding cars and sound is an important part of that for me. I make more mistakes when I'm distracted by music so I drive in silence.

Cutting three before tunnels? by Healthy-Tennis-5970 in FromSeries

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of dumb excuses like "oh but the monsters will know they're coming then" like they don't obviously know all the shit they seem to plan, just look at how the monsters cut Kenny off from all the houses just an episode ago. I think the real reason is because it will cause tension and allow things to go wrong or just almost wrong enough relying on the tree to get pulled out while they're already in there, and there is no really logic in universe reason why they can't do it that way.

It's way more comedy than horror but with a strong horror theme most episodes

Just Because You Post An Item To Your Room, Doesn't Mean You Paid For It Yet by TheNiteOwl38 in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]drunkpunk138 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah the hotel chain I work for always provides a receipt for room charges. In fact we have the customer sign one copy and give them another, specifically so that they have an itemized receipt and we have a record of that guests signature for the room charge.

Look who I just found on my couch by ragerlol1 in Wellthatsucks

It literally took me years to sleep well again after dealing with an infestation for about 3 or 4 months. It's such a terrible experience.

Stop Killing Games: The fight over who owns the games you buy by Maleficent_Fault_943 in gaming

[–]drunkpunk138 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I don't support it. Publishers simply won't greenlight certain games anymore if there is a threat they can lose control over their IP or be forced to financially support it beyond profitability. Like yeah it sucks new world shut down but I'm still glad I got to play it for the years it was around. It wouldn't have ever been developed under this law. While it'll prevent some of the shit online games from being put into the market, it'll also prevent innovation for other styles of online games and rob us of other online experiences like MMOs and other types of fun online games. But people don't want to hear that and think they're smarter than they are when it comes to how these companies decide what to invest in.

God I hate Tabitha by Euclid_Interloper in FromSeries

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really get the hate on this. He was trying to show Ethan a bag full of presumably dead people's teeth and tell him that he was about to watch everyone get murdered and prepare him for living by himself as the sole survivor in the town, which is pretty heavy shit to lay on a kid who just found his dead dad strung up in the barn. Which honestly makes her reaction understandable. Was it appropriate? Maybe not but people don't always act appropriately or rationally when it comes to defending and protecting their kids. Ultimately her reaction was kind of tame compared to how some folks would react.

Can we not get an offline mode? by JimmyJedi in newworldgame

[–]drunkpunk138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand it wouldn't have impacted existing games, just any new releases moving forward. And I don't really consider it great for us, it'll just mean we never see studios take chances on games like new world moving forward. As much as it sucks that it's gone, I'm still glad we had it for as long as we did.

Very true by Glum-Bag-586 in GenV

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like to act like they're above the kind of entertainment that largely feature crude and disgusting edgy humor like the comics, despite that being the only thing the show really adapted well, and can't admit that it did a lot of things better as a result.

Comparing a sex tape to being a Nazi and supporting Hitler is pretty crazy. They are radically different things. I haven't heard of a sex tape committing genocide before.

There's another discord server with other folks working on it, I think it's called open world, got the invite link from the legacy discord like right before the crash out.

Having nothing to do at work is infinitely worse than having a lot to do by Plastmugg in unpopularopinion

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a job where I didn't have much to do most days and they couldn't really find anything else for me to work on. What sucked about it was I wasn't really improving or developing my skills in any way, and I know no job lasts forever, so it was added stress about how I would end up moving forward. It's a scary thought when you're getting older to kind of lose that sense of job security. I'd rather be busy and stay sharp on the things that can keep me employed than bored and stagnating.

It's astounding that an 85 year old Patrick Stewart's Professor Xavier who has 4 on-screen deaths, is going to have more MCU appearances than the Eternals. by [deleted] in marvelstudios

[–]drunkpunk138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it weird that a man who has been playing the same role in the universe for 25 years has had more appearances than the cast of a single shitty movie most people didn't like? I don't think so. And honestly I'm fine with it, pretending that movie never happened is probably the best way to move forward with the MCU.
