There’s a few replies of mine deeper down that show I understand that concept (what you address in your first paragraph) but that it’s a piss poor explanation for the preceding comment (about everyone repeating the same #s) for the reason you give in your last few sentences.

See some of the follow up replies - I realize the statement itself is essentially true, but the way it was used to explain the preceding problem (everyone repeating the same seemingly random numbers) is not, as that’s a relatively easy problem to solve and a rather hilarious oversight by an alien race capable of…

^ Right. I understand that the statement alone by itself is true, but the way they used it to explain literally everything else in the episode was pretty bad and a bit off mark.

That’s really what I was trying to get at. There’s some truth to it, but it’s not exactly an unworkable issue and certainly one an advanced alien species capable of intergalactic travel could have easily solved.

Steven Moffat wrote this episode, so...

That’s just Actarded. I love it.

I mean, I’m sure there is some business deal in place that lets Blizzard get some royalty/benefit/profit for using their service, absolutely. But it seems like it made obvious sense since this wasn’t a franchise that was already entrenched in one location (i.e. CoD and Steam) that it was a good time for the joint…

Activision-Blizzard (the official name of the merged company) is the Publisher for Bungie. Only makes sense to use their own in-house launcher.

I’m generally doing the “Maverick doing a call tower flyby” kind of jackassery when I have to compensate ;)

My God, you are quintessential edgy snarky commenter. “SJW” and false accusations, could you be any more edgier and neckbeardier? Username checks out.

I liked her story. I liked that she wasn’t just another military-raised Turian, or an attempt at Garrus 2.0. And lol, that’s a legit reason. Peebee was fun, but, she had a few moments where she annoyed me. I had a casual relationship with her for funsies.

You’re making a lot of assumptions in your follow up reply to Transhuman Cyborg Octopus.

I’ll have to take your word on the larger ships. But I’ve never had much of an issue either with a joystick with built in, throttle, xbox controller, or my HOTAS setup, had an issue parking my Viper or my Vulture, without banging around inside the space station.

Being the fangirl wasn’t the cringey part. It was the part where her fanaticism led her to assume she knew their culture as good as/better than they did when they let her down that was cringey as all get out.

That’s literally all there is to it. You find out she chose to keep the Kett’s stolen data because she believed it would benefit the Initiative from a counter-intelligence standpoint at the cost of letting their Pathfinder die.

Abandoned her superior officer to die in the interest of helping a lot more people.

Windwaker has been getting a lot of attention too lately. (Not saying this as a con, just saying it’s not just BotW, just Zelda in general)

Just because the game doesn’t “take Cora’s side” or does examine her growth as a result of having her perspective shaken, doesn’t make the act or writing itself non-cringeworthy. She learns not to put the Asari on a pedestal, but her instinctive response to that is to contemplate throwing away the teachings she gained…

I enjoyed Andromeda too, quite a bit of it actually, so this isn’t just a blatant “hating on Andromeda” post, just a “wtf is up with Cora” post. Peebee also has some cringey moments.

The best part is when she humansplains Asari culture and being a Huntress to the Asari Pathfinder who wrote the motherfucking book about being a Huntress.
