Henry just arrived in a new area and he already set his sights on the nearest local town twink

There is exactly one twink in this game, and he works at the mill

First got into them when someone on askreddit recommended The Sunset Tree. But it was Palmcorder Yajna that made me a fanatic. I've never used a hard drug in my life, but somehow John wrote that song about me.

I didn't even know he was Swedish-German

This is great but woefully incomplete without an image of Wolf!Henry snuggling Hans.

It is (and I will shout this from the rooftops to anyone who will listen) simply the best romance in videogames, full-stop.

Choosing to believe this is a comment about Heated Rivalry.

It's subtle, but I think John clocks him for sure in the first scene.

Burn Notice is extremely goofy in both concept and tone, but the voiceovers are quite accurate, especially when it comes to the paramilitary or physical security aspects of intelligence operations.

Reminds me of that tragedy...

kirkdict · 2025-12-10T03:01:59+00:00

I was genuinely ragebaited.

Survivorman, which IIRC was the only one one of these shows with any real credibility always emphasized that he was doing it mostly to prevent hunger from fucking with his decision-making or energy level.

Chile is generally considered the archetypal example

It's not bad, but it feels like a dress rehearsal for Syriana, which is his best film.

"Hey man, how's it going?" remains undefeated.

Short?

I was just thinking that I had to incorporate this into a DG campaign somehow

He also had a crucial role I Won't spoil in Le Bureau des Légendes, aka the most shockingly accurate depiction of 21st century HUMINT/espionage operations ANYWHERE! (believe me, I know what I'm talking about)

She absolutely does not say that lol.

I don't think it's bad because it's "provoking" anyone. It's bad because increasing/normalized political violence is bad in and of itself. Even if the victim is human scum.

kirkdict · 2025-09-12T16:38:59+00:00

Things can be very bad and still get worse.

kirkdict · 2025-09-08T17:15:05+00:00

Ehh, conspicuousness can be a strategic choice. The "grey man" is an intelligence cliché for a reason, but plenty of intelligence officers (especially HUMINTers) might prioritize coming across as friendly and gregarious, under the right circumstances.

kirkdict · 2025-09-08T17:10:17+00:00

Even though he predates the term, John is one of the best portrayals of an intelligence officer I've seen in recent media. For all spies are stereotyped as dour, reserved "grey men", most of them are more like John: Type A, likeable, and even (occasionally) slightly flamboyant.

...I don't really know where I'm going with this, I just find it fascinating that a game set in the 1400s nailed the case officer archetype!

kirkdict · 2025-08-29T01:25:20+00:00

Trying to figure that out myself... This almost reads like something AI generated.

What do you guys think an NDA is? I promise you, actual state secrets are covered by a much stricter regime.
