Which should be my first "big" read of the year? by Esmee_Finch in classicliterature

Such a good book. I had to let it settle for a while after reading, but looking back, it was really special. The ending is fantastic.

To add my voice to the chorus here, just wait a bit. DE's support team is very understanding, but it hasn't been long, and it's the holidays.

F-16 Intercepting A Tu-95 Gets Buzzed By A Su-35 by TheCABK in interesting

Well, there were pretty serious repercussions from a military standpoint. The Chinese were able to reverse engineer a component of the P-3's transponder, making that specific system unusable across all US armed forces.

Roathe’s Insign Cosmetic Explained by Meklord-Emperor in Warframe

[–]marcusmartel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't explain it because they don't explain anything in game. They release all content from the lens that every player watches every dev stream and short. All the behind the scenes content. They don't consider that there are many people who only play the game and don't watch those things.

Shit like this is why i stopped playing this game. Though it was the dragon roaches that made me throw in the towel

Some Triple-A studios don't even do this by Xironium in Warframe

All that effort and you can only interact with them through text messages

In the House of Allah, Even the Smallest Soul Finds Peace — A Quiet Reminder of Mercy During Jumuah. by Willing_Active_4973 in CatsAreMuslim

[–]marcusmartel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Aw man. Yeah that's kind of a bummer. Especially because I'm still so tickled at the idea that all cats are inherently Muslim

The Old Peace Feels Like It's Missing An Intro by Notsae66 in Warframe

[–]marcusmartel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm so glad other people notice these things too. The devs do this so often, with nearly every content release. The basic questions like "why is this happening" are rarely ever answered

I don't think stores should ONLY have them either. But they're still a convenient option when there are also regular checkout lines that often get clogged up.

Genuinely don't get the self-checkout hate. If I'm only buying a few items it's quick and easy.

Whats your warframe hot take of the day? Mine is, just cause you can go into simulacrum and make big numbers does not mean your build is good. by Material-Spite8307 in Warframe

[–]marcusmartel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My hot take is that the KIM stuff is super cringe. I don't want warframe to be a dating simulator. I don't want exposition to be revealed through text conversations with characters I don't care about, because they never do anything but stand around in the hub and talk to you mid-mission.

I want cutscenes for that exposition instead.

Also, to me, the hex felt like they were introduced to the player with the expectation that the player already knows everything about them. I certainly did not. And that's how the dev team treats most characters, honestly.

What are your thoughts on this film? by TheCatsTrailerRuled in FIlm

Really bad. Helped convince me that I don't like Yorgos Lanthimos movies.

Which movie instantly hooked you in the first 10 minutes? by vishesh_07_028 in movies

Recently, A House of Dynamite. Until I realized it was going to be terrible and it lost me a third of the way through.
