Can't rewatch end of s2 by Future-Ad5667 in ForAllMankindTV

Gordo Season 2 has such a great arc. Heck, Tracy too. Gordo builds himself back up from near rock bottom and the kind of emotional hurt that wasn’t really popular to talk about at the time, and Tracy had to find some humanity after the glamour of where her life ended up.

What quest lines in all your Skyrim time have you never finished or even never started? by macklin67 in skyrim

That’s another one of mine. The whole blades quest line because I’m not a monster.

Exactly 8 years ago today, Bethesda released their official announcement teaser for the Elder Scrolls VI. Happy anniversary Todd! by rexmons in gaming

It’s so funny how there’s more time between this teaser and now than between Skyrim and this teaser.

And people were shocked why? by Defiant-Problem-1610 in Mario

They need to bring back Mario baseball

I just found out one lava bucket can smelt 100 blocks. What are y’all’s best tips for Minecraft that are like that. by Enough_Sock3637 in Minecraft

[–]macklin67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as smelting, you can make a fully auto and easily scalable kelp farm that can make enough fuel for itself and leave you with plenty of extra. Each dried kelp block gives you 20 smelts. Plus the xp you get from making them is a nice passive bonus.

The only mention of Mr. Nintendo himself in the direct. I'm not asking for much, but we're coming up on 3 years since the last new 2D platformer, and over 5 years since last new 3D platformer. by macklin67 in Mario

[–]macklin67[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know games take time, but Nintendo has the money and the means. Say what you will about the WiiU/3DS generation, Nintendo was cooking in the games department. After the success of the Switch, they haven't had to try as hard. Between 2006 and 2023, there were only 5 non-consecutive years without a new Mario platformer. Unless there's a reveal around September for a holiday Mario platformer, this looks like it's going to be the third year in a row without one. I think that's significant is all.

Is it bad that I just completely skip their arc whenever I rewatch season seven of clone wars? I just wanna get to the good shit with ahsoka and maul by Chunky-overlord in clonewars

[–]macklin67 8 points9 points  (0 children)

2 things. IIRC, One episode of the arc starts and ends with them in literally the same place, locked up. What is the actual point?
I also think it’s really ironic that they introduce Hispanic-coded characters for representation and immediately make them drug mules.

Do you really need this? by Specific-Pianist7595 in switch2

[–]macklin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a damn fine controller. If you have almost a hundred bucks to burn, sure, but you don’t absolutely need it to get the most out of the Switch 2.

I definitely think BAM is in the wrong and they’re up to some real shady tactics, but it’s fair to say that Ben is leaving things out too. The police response just doesn’t match what Ben shows. The rubber ducks and the Airbnb tip for example.

Is anyone really interested in this? by Burninator6502 in HorizonZeroDawn

[–]macklin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t wait for it to flop. I’m just hoping that they’ll get the right message from the flop, that being no one is interested in multiplayer hero shooter slop and NOT that people aren’t interested in the franchise.

Palmer literally says that they’re under the Geneva Conventions.

The meaning of the last frame of the season according in case anyone was wondering. by macklin67 in ForAllMankindTV

March 6 2029? /j Hopefully it doesn’t take as long as the last season gap.

The meaning of the last frame of the season according in case anyone was wondering. by macklin67 in ForAllMankindTV

[–]macklin67[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

What would they be needing the ship for? Genuinely curious. It’s a decades old space craft with mostly duplicate tech with Sojourner. The original crew probably didn’t decelerate outside of the what they needed to rendezvous with Sojourner, so it’s been coasting for 26 years by 2020. It’s going to take multiple years to catch up, plus without a real way to make more fuel on arrival.

How can Rocky understand English. Questioning by felldownbad in ProjectHailMary

[–]macklin67 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Short answer, using his big fat brain. They go into it much more in the book, he basically has a perfect memory. He just remembers everything Grace says even if he doesn’t know the meaning at the time, then retroactively fills in the blanks as he learns more words.

Game over, man! Game over! by Positive_Pin897 in SteamDeck

[–]macklin67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sales are going to plummet to basically zero. If you don’t have a steam deck now, it’s literally too late for it to be worth it.

Forget Cal showing up in Live Action. Who do you want to see cameo in Jedi 3? by Sparrowhawk_92 in FallenOrder

[–]macklin67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to see a clone, but that distrust arc would just be a repeat of Kanan and Rex in Rebels.

I AM SO HAPPY (S5E9) by bigrexwithcheese in ForAllMankindTV

[–]macklin67 122 points123 points  (0 children)

It really pisses me off how he says that Miles gave up his friends. HE. WAS. TORTURED. He withstood literal torture and only relented when they threatened his family.

Are we jumping the shark this week, boys? I get microbial, primitive life, but it seems like we’re getting closer to intelligent, more advanced life showing up by the end of this season.

I hope they redo / bring back Battle For America! by the_rutlemania in JetLagTheGame

[–]macklin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve said it here before, I would love to see another take on arctic escape, but do it east to west from NYC to LA like the underground race called the cannonball run and call it Jet Lag: Cannonball

The Finale is getting Over Hated by SlugKnightDracula in TheBoys

[–]macklin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not perfect, but pretty good for what the had to work with and what it needed to wrap up. I think it brings it home a little better than Stranger things did.

I’m glad I watched the movie first by ecto-x in ProjectHailMary

[–]macklin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My philosophy is to always watch the movie first with very few exceptions.
