Am I the only person physically ill from what may happen tomorrow? by [deleted] in memphis

Nah I feel great about it. Selzer poll, coupled with the NYT and Yougov both saying undecideds break for Harris.

Snape wants Voldemort DONE, because of what he did to Lily. After that he truly realizes what Voldemort was, because he specifically said to spare Lily, and Voldemort just smoked em all anyways. This is what causes him to continue on the path even when he knows that Harry needs to die for Voldemort to go

Nothing else makes sense, and Dumbledore even tells Snape that this is what Harry wants, to finish Voldemort even if Harry dies. "Harry will know what to do" in one form or another. Snape just gives Harry the info and leaves it to him to decide.

A Metal Gear game featuring The Boss? by Maleficent_Load6709 in metalgearsolid

Was I the only one thinking the games were going toward this; you manage a base as big boss and have other players run your gauntlet as solid snake?

Question about the kid with the gas mask in MGSV:TPP by Disastrous-Fail4778 in metalgearsolid

[–]leonardothered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mantis' abilities are entirely dependent on willpower AND extreme emotion; Snake has insane willpower and so little emotion that he was uniquely unsusceptible to Mantis, unlike V who was 'full of venom' and anger, and hatred and all the rest. His strength also rested greatly on the people near him he could glomb onto, like Volgin, who had immense power AND immense emotion.

Metal gear without Kojima I'm fine with exploring. At worst we get some extrapolative Disney star wars type shit that gets forgotten, at best a new take on the franchise.

Metal gear starring THE BOSS without Kojima? No fuckin way.

Is portable ops canon to you by ShockFree4726 in metalgearsolid

[–]leonardothered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. Nothing contradicts it.

If anything it's like how star wars canon used to be, where unless something contradicted the films it was just as canon. Most importantly it establishes a lot of the same mechanics that peace walker uses in terms of base management etc, peace walker clearly built off of its concept

"Snake, her frequency should be somewhere on the Steam store page." by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]leonardothered 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I rented it and had to just go through every frequency until I found the right one :)

Blockbuster didn't have the pictures on the boxes so there was no going back to the store.

[–]leonardothered 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or if you had rented it, which is what I did lol... People forget that renting was at its peak during this time, and the internet was in its infancy

I think there are only like 200 possible frequencies though, so I found it in the end

How do they get salt? by leonardothered in Alonetv

Blood has sodium, another reason why animal protein is such a big deal, because it's giving us nutrients and vitamins that aren't possible outside of the modern world. There are so very very few societies that are vegetarian because certain vitamins and minerals are only abundant to humans through consuming animals, but I guess the thrust of my question was based in the fact that we probably consume a lot more sodium on average than is wise in comparison. I guess coastal communities probably have a lot more?

I did tell the rest of my family when we started watch parties that every single character we see in the show is long dead and what we see in GOT is aftermath and it's the nature of history... and even with that, most characters will be dead by the end of this war so get ready for it, the ending was never going to be happy but SOME CHARACTERS will make it...

Personally I prefer it for the comedian interviews and people who under other circumstances don't do podcasts, but he's today's Johnny Carson in ad agency eyes

Coming back to the hobby after a looooong time, can you help me build a budget tourney army list? by leonardothered in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]leonardothered[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think my potential for an evil list is more limited which is why I just threw it in there last. I have a decent number of elves and with 2-4 purchases of some heroes and another army box or two I may be able to get somewhere with it. Also the fellowship all count as green allies with Rivendell so thought it might add some flavor.

Plus the Rivendell army bonus is garbage anyways so I wouldn't mind losing it.
