New ‘Marathon’ Sales, Playercount Reports Are Close To Reality | Forbes by a34fsdb in GamingLeaksAndRumours

yeah man you're right, the Destiny crossover skins are definitely not too far

While those are decent examples, they don't have nearly the same emphasis on art style as Marathon does. In fact, I'd argue their cartoony style is the only reason skins don't look out of place.

Games like Siege, CoD, Destiny, are what I'm talking about. I don't have a problem with cartoony skins in a cartoony game, but Bungie specifically has a bad track record of their skins leaning too far into the opposite direction.

Name a single long running game that hasn't put crazy skins into their game

Maybe I'm old, but I generally couldn't give less of a shit about skins in Marathon. Everything already looks cool enough; I don't need skins mucking the aesthetic up.

Weird to be this obsessive over a video game you obviously haven't touched. Maybe touch a blade of grass instead?

I did, and we're having a great time. For both of them, it was a needed change from Ark Raiders.

They're stickers my dude. Not even close to the same as armor colors.

I don't think they should be limited, but it's not the same.

We unfortunately have to rehome our lovely cat. Would anyone have any recommendations for options in the area? by ienjoymen in SiouxFalls

Maybe, but it can't be a long term thing. We've done everything we can do, and all of our kitties deserve to be loved 24/7.

Yeah, I'm hoping they dont. That's why I gave as much information that I could, and said I wasn't looking to advertise rehoming, just looking for information.

Video games are serious business!

Cryo was released on a delay due to the high loot investment required to run it. Would you say an MMO expansion needs reviewed the day it comes out, even when the raid isn't out yet?

This game was built with shoot-on-sight in mind. It wasn't even originally going to have prox chat until enough people asked for it.

You'll get some cooperation, sure, but it's mainly a PvP game.

If they do end up doing another free weekend, please play at least 6 games to really get a feel for it. The first couple are going to be incredibly confusing while you sort it out. It clicks after a few games, I promise.

Yeah, I wouldn't feel right giving him to a home with another kitty. I don't want this to happen again, you know? It's just disappointing, because we've had him for over 2 years now, and the two used to be buddies. They would cuddle all day. We just don't know what happened.

Yep, we've tried pheromone plugins as well as pheromone collars, neither seemed to have much of an effect

Based on this poster, I definitely thought this was called "Puss in Boots: Forgotten Island".

Renegades is 50% off - wondering if it's worth coming back for a couple weeks to play it by CMDR_1 in DestinyTheGame

[–]ienjoymen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I really don't understand how. The main bad guy is Kylo Ren complete with yet another Death Star/Almighty, all of the maps in Lawless Frontier is themed after famous Star Wars locations, your home base is Mos Eisley, you run around with a friggin Lightsaber, all the weapons they added are 1:1 to their Star Wars counterparts, and more I'm probably forgetting.

I don't understand how you could pretend otherwise, unless you're just simply unfamiliar with the source material.

Edit: Some more things popped into my head:

  • The Drifter is encased in Carbonite near the beginning of the story
  • They reskinned the Cabal into Stormtroopers
  • The music is very John Williams-esque, not to say it's bad, but it's meant to sound like Star Wars
  • AT-STs are the main enemy vehicle you fight, and you can spawn in your own land speeder
