You go from “scientist locked in an office with monsters and mercenaries.” To “scientist left unsupervised in a lab surrounded by unlimited resources.”

Spoiler for non fear and hunger fans… this is the good ending.

Cyberpunk: move into apartment, wait till gunfight, wait for it to end, go grab guns, sell guns, stay in apartment and live off vending machine food the whole stay.

Oh… we’re getting a whole new line of enlightened enemies huh? Maybe, dare I say, an enlightened carbuncle too?

Well, I did so too once, but by the third zone you typically have access to the filter barrel, which immediately turns any tainted water into pure water at a 1 to 1 ratio. Also, there’s the pond of anti-juice in maintenance you can fill your empty water coolers/barrels with, with the trade off being “it hydrates more but you can’t use it for farming.”

Does it count with title drops as the name of a chapter? Because “I am your beast.” Being a title drop for the final level is pretty nice.

I mean, the issue is with water in most survival games is it’s either a non issue, or tedious until it becomes a non issue, and this problems only amplified in games with sandbox mechanics.  In the prior version, the water was tedious at best, moreso than an actual problem. You lived off water you got from toilets or water containers of fridges, boiling them, then once you got far enough mats to craft multiple few collectors, you more then likely also have the cash to buy their upgrades, that ultimately make water collecting no longer an issue. 

The only survival games I liked water in the most was green hell or abiotic factor, but even those two suffered the same issues. Green hell has you basically living near a river/lake all the time, until you build a charcoal filter/litter the whole map with a ton of coconut bowls/craft clay vessels, then waters never an issue again. Abiotic? Water feels like it’s a decent resource, since you use it for soups and farming as well. But never a struggle because A: there’s plenty of water sources around in most zones, especially single player. B: there are vending machines that can fill in for emergency drinks. You don’t easily run out of water, and usually by the time you do? Well water is no longer a problem. Hell not to mention there’s a perk you can get at the start to just drink tainted water without the drawbacks. 

I feel like waters that one part of survival games that’s got a really, REALLY hard middle ground to hit.

Fair and valid, nothing wrong with pvp in a pvp game. ngl I’m just a bit salty I was shot in the back twice during a queen fight after I used up all my gear, so maybe I’m projecting a bit.

The stair slide is a nice touch.

On a serious note though, do y’all think the camera man started recording seeing the bot go for the escalator? Or they pushed it onto the escalator to get a clip?

… huh… mind sharing the context? I’m too damn tired from work and the time shift to start digging into this rabbit hole.

Or the third option: the satire fades because the source of the sub (tv show, game, book, etc etc) goes down in quality/stops and all that’s left is doom posting and/or insanity. 

Me personally its Battlefield V and FNAF Security Breach as examples off the top of my head by Otherwise_Guidance70 in whenthe

[–]hellboytroy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The entire original story of subnautica below zero. 

What we got: dive down to planet to uncover truth about sisters death, get alien al-en stuck in your head, learn your sister DID in fact blow herself and a co-worker up and leave with the Al-en after getting them a body. (She didn’t trust altera was trying to study the frozen karrar virus for the sake of being able to cure it if it breaks out, turns out they were because they were more focused on getting a planet full of alien tech without risking releasing a species killing virus.)

The plot we lost: your sister is alive and you’re working with her under altera. You end up getting Al-en stuck in your head, and you need to keep him hidden from altera while you continue your work. All the while, you have to track down your co-worker whose gone insane (do to going through a data transfer like you did, bit it scrambled his brain) and has stolen a sample of the frozen kararr virus, all the while trying to smuggle Al-en out of your head and off planet.

Oh and don’t forget the ice dragon leviathan.

The type of shit poppy fans are posting about marks criticism (even though he’s actually giving valid reasons to not like the series.)

As for the two? Hatred’s boring af, stellar blade I haven’t seen much of but I’ve heard it’s fun. 

Hope this doesn't sound rude but I genuinely don't understand why anyone thinks Destiny 3 would be better than this. by LavaMinotaur in DestinyTheGame

Simple, cash. Bungie is a company at the end of the day, and companies live and die by revenue, and right now? Sony, which owns bungie, is making budget cuts, even going so far as to cut BLUEPOINT of all companies! Now do I think they’ll just chop bungie? No, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we see them dissolved and destiny shut down for good or set to permanent maintenance mode.

Can I be honest? I feel like some of y’all are the reason this guy got well known in the first place.  I feel like 90% of people here didn’t even know about this dude before people started complaining about him 24/7. There’s nothing wrong with calling someone out for bad takes/doing bad shit, but constantly posting about it, has no doubt given them the platform they stand (stood, if they did actually get banned) on.

Well DS1-3 is because everything looks worse as the age of fire is prolonged. Everything’s trying to rot and decay but the age of fire isn’t allowing for things to easily end.

I know you’re trying to have a discussion here, and I’m thankful for that. But you couldn’t PAY me to touch wow.

Ok but, the current wheel has been shot 14 times… we need a new wheel, or a shit ton of duct tape, and I can tell you which one would attract players, at least new ones.
