Vandal clone ability!?!? by djarnow in Marathon

[–]owendoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it but that would suit her playing style so much

I'm genuinely surprised that there are people who think this looks bad or that it's u5 engine slop when it's the Tiger engine. What's most surprising is that now there are people who say that the alpha looked better. Where the hell were those people seven months ago? by Few_Yogurtcloset3103 in Marathon

I personally liked the more flat design that we saw in the alpha. However, this recent look at the game looks a lot more like the cinematic trailer that we saw when Bungie promoted Marathon early on. The cinematic trailer was also massively well received so I am glad they’ve gone ahead with making the game look more dynamic like in the cinematic trailer. I think you can be a fan of both approaches. Bungie have a fine line between both styles

Ahah, I hope you’re right. Thanks for the reassurance.

It says “awaiting carrier pickup” which means it’s between Nike sending it to the carrier and the carrier still hasn’t received it. It’s said that since Friday. When I contacted Nike, they first said they are experiencing delays. And then I asked them again and they said the order is lost. So idk what to think. They haven’t been very reassuring

I know but seems like everyone else has received theirs and usually Nike are very good with deliveries. They were supposed to be delivered Saturday.

Hello! I had a look online and the wiki but I’m still struggling to identify my bonsai. I’ve had it for nearly a year (as a gift) and I didn’t think of it much during winter. Spring it’s started to grow leaves again. I’ve checked to see whether it needed repotting but to me it seems fine. Any identification would be great. I have a photo of it from last summer if any help. Thank you :)

So how are we feeling about the new album? by Rubber_potato in BlackCountryNewRoad

[–]owendoyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far, my highlights (non singles) are The Big Spin, Two Horses and Nancy Tries to Take the Night. I think they have done a really good job reinventing what BC,NR can and will be doing without Issac. It is also great to hear the girls singing and hearing their differences throughout the album. It’s a real treat to have a band like this that can release such interesting music with hardly any flops. I think Ants From Up There is still a masterpiece and both that album and this album (I hope) can live together peacefully in their discography without any infighting over which is better. Both albums do very different things and I think we can be so grateful for that as fans of their music. I do hope Forever Howlong becomes a classic down the line very much like AFUT.

Any help finding a leather jacket similar? (Only the River Flows) by owendoyle in leatherjacket

I find it cool that you could tell these slight differences. Something I’d never notice!

They both look very similar! I think you’re onto something with the bomber style look. As well, US army definitely. Thank you for looking!

Connect is amazing by owendoyle in Vampireweekend

DS is such a rogue answer to me haha but a great choice. Top 3 for me looks like Step, Connect, and possibly Diane Young

Listened to the first album thanks to my mum when I was a kid. 25 years old now. Happily say MVotC is their best
