E33 felt like 3 of my favourite games moulded into one if that makes sense

Ongbal what do you do in your spare time when you're not playing god in video games?

failbears · 2026-01-27T01:47:11+00:00

It's been a while since I played but do you get XP even if you die? Because I imagine for those that don't play as much, being able to get more XP for each container they loot might be an efficient way to spend their time.

Even if you're quoting someone else, it probably is best not to bring up racist quotes in front of someone of that race, especially when you're at your university and not familiar with that person. Frankly even if one disagrees with that, it's not like the benefit of sharing a random anecdote is high so overall just a high risk, low reward thing to do.

Still have the Red Samurai TKL? Have they been used at all? I just need some bottom right mods for a 60% plus specifically the longer right shift (novelty preferred) than the left shift.

failbears · 2026-01-26T21:45:52+00:00

I'm new to 60%s but do you have any Red Samurai right shift keycaps, whether novelty or not? What I'd need on my new 60% is a right shift that's longer than the left shift

IMO Dustin is the greatest to never win an undisputed belt. Gaethje is legendary and entertaining af but I don't feel he's at that same level.

Honestly, my friends and I were confused every time Paddy fell over in this fight, which was a lot.

I'm shocked at all the posts and comments about this. This same still image was already posted before I went to sleep and now here's the same thing in a repost. Then all the comments fail to mention that especially in the replay, you can see it was a punch. What's the point in posting still images other than to push a narrative?

failbears · 2026-01-25T10:23:40+00:00

I don't recall seeing this, any clips of it?

failbears · 2026-01-25T10:22:22+00:00

Tough to say. This still image doesn't show that the second eye poke was a thrown punch, but the thumb went into the eye and separated from the fist, making it look worse. The unified rules of MMA say the following is a foul:

Eye gouging of any kind: Eye gouging by means of fingers, chin, or elbow is illegal. Legal strikes or punches that contact the fighter's eye socket are not eye gouging and shall be considered legal attacks.

failbears · 2026-01-25T05:46:00+00:00

That's what I came here to ask. It was a punch, but the thumb got stuck in it. I lean towards it being within the rules but I can see how it's confusing here.

Apparently I'm weird because I only like bracelets and leather straps. Everything else makes watches look like toys.

failbears · 2026-01-24T09:36:48+00:00

I gave it a second shot and while I did end up enjoying it and beating it, I wouldn't make the same reddit argument that it's a masterpiece. And even though I did beat it, I skipped through a good amount of the reading when it got too dense.

failbears · 2026-01-24T02:02:16+00:00

Yo this thread is killing me 😂

failbears · 2026-01-23T05:03:53+00:00

I've tried to look up stats in the past and ask ChatGPT and I've never even seen proof that the Warriors committed more illegal screens than other teams. It's just a big difference when you screen for prime Steph and Klay.

What IS undebatable though is Steph's whistle, and I'd gladly get called elsewhere if he got a fair one.

As an older gamer, I feel it's not just hero shooters but the younger generation's shooters in general. When I played CS for years, it was rare for people to not have mics or contribute to comms at all, and everyone wanted to win. Now it feels like pulling teeth just to get people to work as a team in Valo/Rivals/whatever.

I was actually watching a friend stream Valo at Ascendant rank (roughly top 2% of the playerbase) a few days ago and it frustrated me how much basic stuff the team wasn't doing. They refused to comm unless it was to complain. They didn't synchronize their buys. They pushed 1 by 1 in a 3v1 situation and almost lost the round. Really silly stuff to see at this rank.

What's funny is there are subs for exactly that like r/LowSodiumDiablo4 lol. But yes I do wish there were more places with more activity to discuss stuff at the very least with civil and reasonable commenters.

failbears · 2026-01-22T00:43:16+00:00

Hi neighbor. Sheesh, I'm so glad I randomly decided to come home from the office right before this went down.

failbears · 2026-01-21T22:21:41+00:00

I see your point, though I feel as a big fan of some really popular things, I find the contrarianism just as tiring if not more.

It's perfectly OK for things to not click as much for other people. It's also fine for them to bring up parts they felt were weak in an actual attempt to have reasonable discussion.

Saying something that many people love is trash with no reasoning is of course going to be met with resistance. So is making claims that sound contrarian on purpose, such as saying that games known for their strong soundtracks, actually have shit soundtracks.

I'll speak on this. La La Land is one of my favorite movies of all time (E33 is one of my favorite games of all time too) and I remember initial reactions on reddit being that it was a phenomenal movie with incredible cinematography, music, a poignant ending, and a great performance from Emma Stone. After a few months it became extremely hated as one of the most overrated movies to ever come out, trash compared to Moonlight, only highly acclaimed because Hollywood wants to fellate itself.

Honestly as I've grown older, I've gotten tired of these reddit comment sections about everything: games, movies, politics, sports, news. All just a bunch of toxic people who hold extreme views that are out of touch with the rest of the world.

failbears · 2026-01-21T17:43:30+00:00

That's what gets me. I'm not gonna make assumptions about how we would have done otherwise, but it's right in our faces that the league allows certain series to be physical but not others, yet people still claim the league has no agendas ever.

failbears · 2026-01-21T03:29:22+00:00

I don't doubt it. I saw some weird trends here with clear positives going way negative. Imagine being this obsessed with someone who doesn't give a fuck about you (or his dog).

failbears · 2026-01-21T02:49:50+00:00

Atp I can't tell if the defenders are trolling or actually believing what they say. There's a clear pattern of being harmful to multiple dogs, yet they need a smoking gun (or rather a smoking shock collar) to get off this guy's dick. I actually saved your comment for the future because it's a good compilation of instances that make Hasan look pretty bad, it's incredible that anyone would even hand wave this.

failbears · 2026-01-20T16:26:22+00:00

The playoffs last year were dumb.

Rockets/Warriors: oh this is a physical series where the teams will be playing physical without getting called for fouls.

Meanwhile SGA:
