    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Shooting people in their packs is funny. Some tough space punk went flying up into the roof while panicking and yelling. Was first good laugh of the game and well deserved.

    Pay? Don't be insulting. To defend @Ambiturner for a change, pretty sure he's a good enough bad cop he isn't paying for the whores he's fucking.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I love the instant irony of you of all people calling someone out for "middle school shit" as you then instantly try to build internet cred by insulting someone on a web forum with some generic insult about their life. It's strange. You often go to trying to be deeply insulting by telling...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Bethesda, at least of this genre, have always been janky as shit with weak combat and questionable design decisions. Fallout 3 and 4 managed to keep enough of the quirk and humor of the IP and the big three Elder Scrolls games had interesting and engaging writing and production even if the...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    The United Colony Vanguard intro mission is pretty good. The little history museum was well done with interesting art and displays, not taking too much time, but gave good context for the game. The flight simulator was fun and good practice. Swearing your oath in front of flags and stars. Even...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Hollywood and the pedo media wouldn't ever glamorize or sexually obsessed over young girls? Hell of a take from the dude that just went on the record stating the one child had always been more attractive than the other kid. How many times have you volunteered to be a school resource officer?

    Didn't you just wtf his post, and now you're like no way was the one child ever more attractive than the other kid at any point in her life! Good to know your objection was to calling her Australian and not the apparent very close scrutiny you gave those children on their attractiveness "at any...

    Success isn't ever only defined as the top of a field or industry. 99% of successful filthy rich attorneys aren't somehow not successful because they aren't on TV or getting the game of Alan Dershowitz or Johnny Cochran. Not to mention the dumb cunts from GoT especially have all the shit from...

    Not bait at all: what are your thoughts on seeing the moon, thinking it might be cool to check it out.... so you load into the menus and click to land from the UI, and get a loading screen with a picture of fucking Saturn. Do you feel that is the best use of assets and game/story design, or...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    This is my favorite rationalization. The notion they got their money's worth so everything is juuuust fine. Because all they ever wanted from an epic Bethesda space game was a few dozen hours of good enough. Often accompanied by: Cheaper than the movies! Better deal than going out to dinner...

    I can't wait for the future, where instead of opening a door you simply click on it to load screen right through it. Can even click some doors, turn and run, and it will load you through the door from down the hallway. Some really genius design language. How can you not love this classic...

    Ah, the classic accusation the other person in a discussion is just ever so angry. Good one! You seem so quick to accuse others of strawmen perhaps because it's what you do? Both times I've mentioned Elden Ring I have very clearly indicated I'm bringing it up as an example of a studio that...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I say the game feels boring and generic. You retort by pointing out someone else made a point that was apparently very novel to you that Starfield has way more environments than Fallout or ES games, and that didn't at all refute my point I think the setting and game is boring and generic so...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    How am I creating a strawman out of this argument: You brought up the point (you seem to think is novel) that Fallout and Elder Scrolls games were limited to a single kingdom and type of terrain, but Starfield has a bunch of different environments. That's what I responded to. That Starfield...

    They did a lot of generic stuff, that means it's good? Yikes. You sure that's the point you want to make? The broader concern is one you elude to. These giant, corporate studios like Bethesda, EA and Blizzard have been living on early successes they haven't been able to replicate in a long...

    $150 Biden bucks for GTA6? That's a great deal. Hell, going to the movies 3 times is gonna cost you more than that. Sure to get more than 6 hours of fun from it! If you think about it $150 is an investment because you'll save so much money not buying other stuff!

    Nah. It's just a mediocre, uninspired game. If it had anything to grab your attention it would be. Forum full of gamers wanting a space game especially to captivate them and it's not, because it's just a boring, low effort game. Don't get me wrong, I miss my youth too. And while dealing with...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    No. Game Pass is pretty mediocre overall, and I'm actually a fan. I like the Xbox ecosystem because their rewards system pretty much funds my gaming hobby, but Starfield doesn't seem like it's close to being good enough to be the rationale to buy an Xbox. Nor Game Pass in general.

    Reminds me of one of the Z Nation actors saying Spokane was a great city to shoot in because there were so many city blocks that looked abandoned. True, but people bitched about it. Was recently in Spokane and those areas downtown now have zombie people too. Was disgusting.

    Definitely helps to have an actual Xbox doing that portion of the points. They do have points with the Xbox app now, too. So Xbox, online and app. It's all relative whether it's worth it, of course. Used to be like $300 a year which was plenty to fuely gaming habits, but it has been going down...

    I've dutifully clicked on my "free" games for years and don't recall playing a single one of them. Not saying it's not a great system for the game horders, just that nothing of value will be lost. I suppose I like the idea of some permanent gamepass games, if that's how they're doing it. But...

    Some things involving meat are just better as hand jobs. If I'm concerned about portion size I just weight the ground beef so it doesn't cause any extra compacting. Scooping ground beef doesn't even compute in my mind. Wouldn't even scoop a meatball.

    From the wood pellet? Or maybe residual chemicals on the grill plates (I clean and bake shit off good and still my nonstick waffle iron smells bad and always tasted off to me). I googled that ninja wood pellet electric grill and am still confused, but it shouldn't taste bad, right?

    And it sounds like they had months of feedback that people didn't like the changes, particularly reducing customization. So they ignore their testers, push through the changes, and then publish press releases on how it's a great success and everyone loves the increased customization! I knew it...

    Only broiler/oven steak I've ever had that was good was as a kid when we had mo electricity so everything was propane. Propane stove with a broiler tray under the oven that broiled with the open flame element. The stovetop is messier searing, but better than the oven or air fryer steaks I've...
