I read a comment on youtube years ago that said something like, “how much you like Evangelion on your first watch correlates to how much you like yourself”. I think this is why it is so important and impactful to so many people, including myself. When I watched it as a young teen I was self-loathing and suicidal. I…

I, for one, am very glad they are still making games with that “trashy absurdity”. Seems like these days, having a Japanese aesthetic, and especially any sort of fanservice is an automatic negative, even on a game that is really good. 

That’s cool, you have your opinion, but it’s deliberately calling out the thing that has put them to where they are, the thing that they are choosing on their own as a career path.

I dislike the use of the quote “they’re all the goddamn same”. Yeah, they are more or less. Conventions are a business. You’re doing your cosplay as a business. If the conventions are were you have to go to flex your business and make money, boo hoo that they’re all the same - you’re doing this as a business.

I guess I’m not used to these sorts of games. It took me a month and a half to get to the end of Borderlands. So I was expecting something like that.

Didn’t the game come out like last week? If people are already at the endgame I’m kind of concerned there’s not enough pre-endgame there.

Your the first person I’ve seen that has the same view as me. I refuse to call this gambling since you never get nothing for your money.

It’s not gambling. Gambling means you have a chance to literally get nothing while lootboxes at least you get something worth the value of the box. This is the same as buying any type of trading card. It’s still stupid and I should have the option to buy the item I want, but it’s not gambling.

My original point is that these individuals aren’t athletes. And this article exemplifies that in spades.

This week, we have a bunch of gamers doing the gross and pathetic “Masturbate through the tears” thing and buying an expansion for a game that they like to say they hate but they don’t really hate.

There is an incentive by developers to introduce these rigged systems in multiplayer games to maintain the treadmill so their games stay full and players keep grinding. I don’t want to play games just to keep grinding. Giving them the false feeling of progression when they’re not accomplishing much at all is…

I couldn’t disagree more. The level that the writers are operating right now is practically unheard of. Tales from the Citadel was just one example where in the span of 20 minutes they were able to create (and then destroy) several rich, full worlds. It is world-building done better than I’ve ever seen it done before.

I think you may have watched the wrong show...this season was the best IMO. they talked about Ricks psychology, had satire on capitalism and race, addressed divorce, family issues, awkward bonds between people that shouldnt have them, senses of obligations, the utility of memory Vs. comfort...like what are you even…

Disagree. This season was pretty clearly all about how much Rick needs his family, despite everything he says or does that is contrary to that. While, to me, every other season made it seem like he is only going to stick around until he gets bored or till shit hits the fan; The end of season 2 plus the whole season…

Dude, here is an example. You are being fired upon, your buddy next to you fires some shots at where he thinks the enemy is. His gun is empty, he looks up at you and says “THROW ME A CLIP!”
Do you:
A) Understand that he is asking for ammo, specifically something that will allow him to load that ammo into his weapon…

In a quiet room it is quite noisy in distinctive. At a moderately busy shooting range you barely notice it, and even then you have to be listening for it in particular. In a reenactment with tanks firing, machineguns tossing bursts, artillery firing, aircraft working overhead and explosions from various simulators…

This is also in a quiet enclosed room with a camera 1 foot away from the gun, not in combat.

Spellcheck? Are you seriously this pedantic? At best you can throw out “grammarcheck” because I didn’t misspell anything.

Who fucking cares

Dude, stop being pedantic. The two words are interchangeable. Just like pistol and revolver are, in the realm of general conversation, interchangeable terms though technically they are different types of handgun (one has a fixed chamber connected to a barrel that bullets are fed into, the other has each bullet in its…
