    The Last of Us

    Smart collectors edition purchases can be a good investment, the problem is trying to identify those. A vanilla WoW CE goes for a fuckload.

    DOTA 2

    If anything, it at least opens up the opportunity for other people to try to fill the talent vacuum left behind. The B Squad becomes the A squad and newer people can try their hand at the B squad.

    The Last of Us

    Preorders make sense for physical collectors editions of which there will be limited stock. It also made sense back in the day when your local EB would only be getting enough copies of a game to cover pre-orders and everyone else got fucked.

    DOTA 2

    Arteezy is the youngest out of all those listed (23). Puppey is 30 and Kuroky/Notail are late 20s. That was around the age people were calling Fear 'old man'. Just like in pro sports, you're going to see a lot of drop off once people start nearing that threshold. I do agree that you need...

    DOTA 2

    Stagnation of Playerbase is a bigger threat to viability. Most pro players come from the general public, “pubstars” and the like. If you don’t get new blood, then eventually the pro scene stagnates. Dota2 pros who were in their teens are now approaching their 30s. The game is deep, but has a...

    It will be over 10 years old. Not many older games can maintain a strong professional scene indefinitely.

    There’s no reason for it to have weapons unless it’s mission profile requires it. I’m just trying to think of where a drone boat is a better option than something aerial from a combat perspective. In theory it can loiter on the ocean longer than a drone can fly, but it is more vulnerable to...

    DOTA 2

    Tobi seemed less involved with the scene outside TI, though. He lost his “cast the finals crown” to ODpixel a few years ago it feels like. But ya, he had problems outside this for years now, like the examples you posted. Years ago Cyborgmatt posted that Tobi is toxic AF behind the scenes.

    DOTA 2

    Just keeps getting worse. Synderen’s current GF now claims she was sexually assaulted by Tobiwan (prior to being with Synd). She never told Synd previously. Considering Synd has been Tobi’s analyst partner for years now, that’s pretty fucked up.

    Some pushback regarding allegations regarding Zyori, seems to be summed up as “I exploited Zyori but now that he is of no use to me, I’m going to smear him”.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    He had a conflict, so he appears back end of the season. They plot waived it away by Gemma saying Fitz made the tech and she can’t know where he is for whatever reason. The reveal in this episode that something is not right with Gemma will probably tie into that. Enjoying the “Sliders”...

    From a legal perspective, it hinges on ability to give consent. It also hinges on what state they are in when this happened, since they define that differently in terms of intoxication (it's mixed in terms of involuntary vs. voluntary consumption of the substance in most). If both people are...

    According to the allegations, girl got blackout drunk, but Grant was apparently not as drunk when he had sex with her, and after the fact was texting her asking if she wanted to know what happened that night (which implies he was lucid enough to recall details)? That's been considered rape for...

    Different situations, though. In TNG, Worf wanted to commit suicide. In the DS9 situation, Worf was going to kill his brother (aka murder).

    You can buy a whirlypop for $15-20 at Bed&Bath. You put oil in it (and flavocol if you like) and kernels, put it on stovetop at medium, turn the crank on it (rotates the kernels in the oil, preventing burning and ensuring even oil coat on the kernels). Shit pops (still crank while it pops, so...

    If you watched it, it was more of a comment on the scene. You have to be completely blind if you don’t see that, especially at the game level.

    DOTA 2

    There’s a ton of other shit coming to light, some of it heavier than others. Digital Chaos’ entire team leaving makes more sense in the context of Alyssa’s story: The CEO wasn’t paying, then started overly slapping her ass/harassing her at a pool party and Blitz was like fuck it, that’s the...

    The Last of Us

    This game does have some nice moments. The flashback where Joel takes Ellie to a science museum and she plays astronaut was fantastic. In fact, the greatest tragedy in the game is probably familiar to any parent with teenagers: eventually they hit an age where they want less to do with you...

    Open ended in sense that there is no real conclusion to Ellie or Abby’s characters. Ellie wanders off into the woods, maybe to try to mend shit with Dina? Who knows?

    He probably does, but they wrote themselves into a corner by leaving TLOU2 open ended, so they have no choice but to bring Ellie back. Fuck, they’ll probably Joel her in the first 10 minutes and then the game is just Abby and Lev.

    The Last of Us

    That story still sucks lol TLOU2's story is kinda decent for the first half, although it could be enhanced by some tweaks (like not making Joel and Tommy 100% trusting derps). Like that whole death scene could be changed for the better by a) Joel is playing it cautious b) Tommy accidentally...

    The Last of Us

    Agree. The best way to put it: If the subversion of expectations is in line with the characters, then usually it will succeed. If it feels like the writer made the choices rather than the character, then it usually will fail. TLOU2 constantly feels like the writer vs. the characters are...

    Same thing. I always have issues posting twitch clips on this forum edit: Anyways, clip was of Strippin near end of playthrough and Abby gets shotgunned in the face by Ellie (when you're playing as Abby) and he's all like "I'm ok with this ending, time to wrap this up!". His thoughts seemed...

    The yellow coloring in the movie popcorn is the Flavnol. Usually I’m fine with the “dry” popcorn at the movies where it is popped with that. But the pumped liquid they put on the popcorn if you want “butter” on your popcorn is usually partially hydrogenated soybean oil + other shit apparently...

    To pop it they use those, so the base popcorn has some good flavor, but the extra shit they offer to drench your popcorn in is nasty.
