    Fallout

    My understanding for the show is there was some sort of war between BoS and NCR in the time period between New Vegas and this show (which is post FO4). Not unreasonable to assume there have been some changes in terms of area control since New Vegas as a result

    If you adjust for inflation, that was the equivalent of paying over $700 for the console and 3 games.

    They had been coasting off that original Red vs Blue stuff for a long time. The first few seasons were great

    Helldivers II

    Unsafe rail takes like 3-4 shots to disable leg armor on a charger now Honestly they need to make the charger’s ass a weak point. Everyone when they start think it is because it seems intuitive, but it isn’t. At least to regular guns. You could unload like 3 clips of the breaker shotty there...

    I was responding to his comment about “politics” being injected into games when I mentioned ESG. It’s not so much the company having those politics but they they want that sweet money

    Helldivers II

    Unless there is a reliable armor breaking weapon, chargers are too bullet spongy. Headshots (regular or when they open their mouth) even with railguns never seemed to do much. Like you can burn through 10+ railgun rounds and chargers still don’t die Maybe recoilless rifle, but you burn a...

    Helldivers II

    The bit about “reduced damage to durable parts” makes me think railgun won’t be able to break charger leg armor as easily Unsafe mode also needs a better tell on when it’s about to explode

    it sounds like 3 seasons is it, which should help in telling the rest of the story. Although it seems like more, the cartoon was only 3 seasons. So season 2 will presumably focus on Earth kingdom and introduce Toph, then final season is fire nation focus

    Thank you for proving my point - the past few posts have pretty much been "zomg DEI invented cost overruns and poor money management that results in no games/bad games and is a recent phenomenon!"

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    You're positing a theory with no actual basis in reality. A prior post outlined the main culprit: these game companies are awash with money which leads to more bureaucracy and needless complication, executive meddling to maximize shareholder value, and certain things just costing more

    Helldivers II

    They do change stuff on the fly apparently, so it wouldn't shock me. There is almost no reason to use anything besides the breaker shotty as your primary gun at the moment, so I won't be shocked if they nerf it or make it less optimal

    I used to like the long danish cake as a kid from them, although you try it now and realize the 1000% daily recommended sugar intake content is probably why you liked it as a kid

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    You're making a false equivalence. Do some companies hire to fill some manner of quota in some instances? Sure. But lets not pretend that is some major reason for cost overruns or poor hiring results. Some people interview well but do poorly in role. And projects can be mismanaged. Look at...

    Dune Awakening

    If this is Rust-like, I wonder how they plan to address vehicles really. The video showed someone "mining" a destroyed vehicle at one point, so I presume there will be benefit in resource or part reclamation. But if they make the cost of vehicles too prohibitive, then you're not likely to see...

    You can’t blame everything on DEI like a toddler screaming that the broccoli is touching the chicken nugget and as a result, the chicken nugget has been poisoned The problem with the game was the vision for the game wasn’t consistent and changed through development, which resulted in a lot of...

    They really are cable now. Every time they raised my bill i had to go through some song and dance bullshit about threatening to cancel before I got a magic discount. One time they said there was none and I called their bluff and terminated my cable TV package, then suddenly my mail was awash...

    Constellation were dull overall - the only person who seemed to have some personality was Barret. All of them were also inconsistent with what they say vs how they react. This combined with a snooze fest MSQ made it hard to power through it. The Terrorbeast UC quests were the most interesting...

    Helldivers II

    It mostly has to do with weak points. Like chargers, if you destroy the armor on the front leg and shoot the exposed leg, it takes a shitload of damage and dies. So usually 1-2 railgun shots to leg, then I swap to my shotty and shot the exposed leg and it dies in like 4-5 shots Anti-material...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    If they wanted diversity in the game in terms of characters that's fine, but the main issue is they didn't do enough in regards to diversity of planets in that game or the gameplay loop itself "oh hey, it's a barren moon! Here is a_cave_00 and the same 8 POI recycled!" You can make the most...

    Zoe lost the Overwatch gig, can’t blame her getting other gigs Made me think of a funny random story, though. She did a stint during two of the Dota Internationals really early on, like TI2 or 3,?then vanished. During one of the DOTA tournaments a few years back, the hosts were doing a bit...

    Even if you don’t have a mic, a lot of players are on PC and can see the text chat I’ll usually say we should stick to main obj if we’re burning too many reinforcements and people usually acknowledge that. It’s easy to overlook how many reinforcements you actually have

    The prime demographic for those types of shows are people who were kids or teenagers during a specific time period. They usually come out 2-3 decades after the era in question, just in time for the nostalgic target audience in question to be at their prime economic buying power (which...

    Nuke no. There’s no way you could detonate it close enough to literally smooth a surface. It would also irradiate the soil. Lasers would be too high an energy cost Your best bet would be sending robots that can prep a landing site

    Because the Spartans in game and in books specialized in different roles and the power armor is still literally doing the heavy lifting

    That makes it realistic as well - a tank without infantry support can be destroyed fairly easily

    Avatar: The Last Airbender

    Watched the whole thing. After seeing the season, I suspect the real reason they took out the sexist Sokka subplot on Kyoshi Island is that it was too similar to the stuff Katara has to go through with the North Water Tribe and would have just felt like a rehash. They just reframed it during...

    Chuk is actually correct. Disney was making a lot of money on those live actions until the recent string of bombs and bad press Think sports. If your coach wins the Super Bowl or World Series and then shits the bed the next year, they usually get a buffer year or two before they get booted if...

    Ya places like Vancouver or Toronto were major production sites for years. Vancouver alone became sort of a science fiction/superhero/fantasy filming hub. Stargate, Battlestar, all the Arrowverse crap, etc

    The Mandalorian

    Tax credits for filming in your state is bait that states use in the hopes that it results in supporting industry springing up in the state. Movies aren't just actors - they need people in the trades (carpentry/electrical), catering, security, artists. Also, if the location they are in...
