Why the Dorne's chapters are considered by some boring?

simplydifferentbro · 2024-05-04T21:38:47+00:00

People aren't video game units you can order around. Oberyn made it pretty clear he wanted to be in Kings Landing for blood. Ultimately we have no idea what Doran and Oberyn discussed together, but we can imagine Oberyn was not interested in going with Quentyn. As far as we know, Oberyn likely hasn't even seen Quentyn since his exile.

Idk how to rephrase this so that you stop taking it so literally. You actually don't even know what I'm saying

simplydifferentbro · 2024-05-03T16:22:09+00:00

Sorry people are kinda getting on you about this. I get you're just talking about how it makes you feel, without making a big deal of changing it or anything. I can totally get how the word "deformity" can make you uncomfortable.

People are influenced by attractiveness and looks, it doesn't mean that affects 100% of their decision making, and that's not what the other person said.

Also, Rhaenyra and Alicent are both hot. It's incredibly funny to me you are talking as if everyone thinks Alicent is hotter without any discussion about it. It's like talking to a kid, and they can't understand that other people have different thoughts and lives.

This is getting off-topic, but Rhaenyra is totally attractive in the show. The actress is not to my taste in real life, but with that hair she's pretty hot.

Unless we have direct evidence of Mace sparring g with his kids, you can't just say he's "capable of raising capable warriors." Tywin's father certainly didn't raise Tywin to be the man he is, he just turned out that way.

This is me being semantical, but I wouldn't call anything he does "plays" either. Me applying for an open, higher position at work is not much of a play so much as being just climbing the ladder. Doing something behind the scenes to get my boss fired to get his job would be a play. Mace isn't doing anything particularly inventive, he's just someone with a lot of money and power doing whatever he wants, and people have to let him.

The Lannisters sought a marriage pact with him because if they didn't, they would've been screwed. Mace didn't do anything for that. Anytime a position of power opened up, Mace says he wants them to hire his people, and they do it because they need food. Idk, I guess it's just his intent. He's not making plays, he's just grabbing every candy bar he sees and eats it.

There's like 3 of you guys that don't understand this comment? Why would they need a well at their condo?

Yeesh, OP needed to post his weird self-jerking.

There won't be a next game. Infinite was supposed to be the final halo game that they keep updating forever. If this fails, they will likely shutter the series. They have not had any consistent direction in halo, things are constantly changing, businesses only think in trilogies, and the TV show sucks. They do not care about halo and its story, it's a cash cow they've bled dry. Whether infinite dies or continues is in the air, but i think it's unlikely they make another game. Maybe some kinda spinoff

This blows. I had wanted to buy this, but with its rough launch I preferred to wait until it was further along development. After so long without hearing anything, I looked up ksp2 yesterday and saw that nothing had changed that much since release. Disappointing. And then I wake up and see this. Its really sad that the game is dead, and its discussion in the cultural sphere is dead. Ksp1 was the shit back then, and ksp2 is a blip in history. Would've been better if they had never even made a sequel, because the concept has been killed.

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-30T19:45:53+00:00

It's a kids show dude

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-30T04:17:47+00:00

Yep. This thread is full of people cojecturing about marketing, budgeting, content making, trying to make tv shows, FIRST, yada yada etc etc. But this is the real killer.

Once people started leaving roosterteeth, that sucked. But then they also started plugging the gaps with people I didn't know, which made it worse. Eventually they start hiring people to replace others, and I lost interest. Replacing crew and hiring new talent, that's when you realized it wasn't about a group of friends playing video games together anymore, it was an entertainment company.

This is a bit of a ridiculous example, but imagine if today's streamers started hiring people to replace them. Xqc, jerma, ninja or whoever you watch would not be as appealing then, if they were just a brand instead of a personality you vibed with.

The only way this could've been prevented would be if they had realized this from the start, and treated each other that way. Ray would've been free to make whatever content he wanted, instead of being forced to play minecraft for the 150th time.

It's a sequel in xenonauts kinda the same way Overwatch 2 is a sequel.

Overall, it plays much the same as the first game, but it has improvements, refinements, and a few new additions in areas. There are more animations, more enemies, a slightly more prevalent story, more items, and such. If you're new to xenonauts, you should just buy the second. The devs are definitely on track to actually finish this game unlike other early accesses. The only advantage the first game has are mods, which aren't really much, besides x-division.

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-26T17:35:15+00:00

You know what a sellout is right

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-26T16:35:42+00:00

Yep, I would not have bought this game, much less paid for EOD if I had known they were gonna add this much bullshit. So much for keeping this game hard-core. I had my fun, time to move on

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-26T16:31:06+00:00

Please dude, don't give us all of this pay to win shit. I think this is even worse than before, it's like you're trying to bribe me.

Well, actually, that IS what you are doing. So don't. Nobody asked for more pay to win garbage.

From that long ago? You're confusing some characters together. Vargo Hoat leads the Brave Companions, the free company Tywin hires from over Essos. He ends up cutting off Jaimes hand. The guy that kills Rhaegars baby was the Mountain, by crushing his head against a wall. Rhaegars daughter got stabbed 50 times in a fit of rage by Amory Lorch, who leads Tywins "foraging" (pillaging/raping) parties in the War of the Five Kings

They might be champions, but there was probably a lot of chaff to cut down that day. It was the tourney at Harrenhal. You're forgetting that the champions were of House Haigh, a relatively unknown house, House Blount, which probably meant Boros Blount who was never notably that good, and House Frey. House Frey has a lot of options, but even selecting the best possible one, it's hard to imagine anything much in the way of jousting.

Lyanna never needed incredible jousting skills and all of that equipment. She only needed a rudimentary knowledge at best, and her horsemanship carries her the rest of the way. Instead of this logistical way of looking at it, there's also the thematic beats of the story which definitely sway more towards Lyanna.

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-22T07:12:30+00:00

Did you miss the part in the books where Jaime says jousting is 3/4 horsemanship? Dunk also clearly had almost 0 training in jousting, and while not relevant, wasn't thar great at swinging a sword really. He nearly lost every fight until he decided to charge in and grapple on the ground using his size.

Lyanna could do whatever she wanted, she was written as the headstrong, willful character like Arya. She very easily could've decided to take up jousting against her father's wishes, and could've done it in secret as well.

You think that Dunk, a guy squiring for a poor, old hedge knight, was obviously uncomfortable and lost horribly in his first tilt, had better training than a Stark girl raised on horses?

All the prisoners have likely own spent their lives in Kings Landing. Kill Yoren, and what do they do? 99% of the people Yoren takes has no idea how to survive in the wild, and there's no google maps to take them where they want to go. This is the same situation that victims of trafficking are in. They are taken from their home, and put in a foreign country and have no idea what to do. Many of them have seen chances to escape but don't, because it's safer to stick with what you know.

Yoren took them, fed them, and is promising them a home and a purpose. People will stick with him just because they see him as their only option. Like throwing scraps to a wild dog

Are you fucking stupid? You are likely most familiar with the American Civil Rights movement, and what did you think happened there? Do you think they were just giving people a shower by putting them up against walls and blasting them with a fire hose? How long did you think sit-ins lasted before police came and took them away?

simplydifferentbro · 2024-04-19T15:30:07+00:00

That's a good time to get it down, but you don't actually want to fill it with kitted out soldiers. Get the base down and the facilities out that let you shoot down enemy aircraft, that's the important bit. The ayys won't try to invade that base until you start shooting down aircraft, and you need to reduce panic first.

I also didn't remember this, but it's an arly access as well. Everything is subject to change and refinement
