Gaming / Finally finished Halo 5
« on: March 28, 2018, 05:14:18 AM »
or as I have taken to calling it:

Pretty Much Nothing Happens: The Video Game

seriously it starts, then Chief goes to where Cortana is, then Cortana leaves, and Chief goes to Sanghelios

I guess there's the whole thing on Meridia, and the very short war on Sanghelios, but none of the characters in that portion of the game felt important, and the conflict all felt manufactured and auxiliary to the plot

characters who could've been great like Governor Sloan and Exuberant Witness felt like they were shoved in at the last second, and were completely flat as characters

Sloan's betrayal didn't even feel moderately as close to game changing as Guilty Spark's, and Exuberant Witness pretty much only existed to open doors

even the Arbiter was boring
where we should see his triumphant charge to finally break his people of the old ways, and become a beacon of hope for the future of Sanghelios, we more see him getting his butt kicked then he gets saved by the Spartans and that's pretty much it

what made him work in Halo 2 was his pain and his failure, and the second chance he knew he didn't deserve, and watching that turn slowly into revelation that his failure was not only inevitable, but also that his task only served to perpetuate a lie that kept his people enslaved

Halo 5 could have been the culmination of that, but instead it got breezed over as an subplot that's only kinda there if you look for it

I'm grossly disappointed

The Flood / Predictions for Infinity War?
« on: March 19, 2018, 08:35:10 PM »
Anything will do.
Predictions for either part.

I think Tony will lose an arm, but frankly I don't know who, if anyone, will die.

Vision is too new a character to be killed off, I think the removal of the mind stone will just turn him off temporarily or weaken him significantly.

Thor just became king of Asgard, so he's not going anywhere. I do think he'll reforge Mjolnir tho.

Some support character(s) will probably die, and nobody will probably care. Not everyone is a Phil Coulson. Maybe Fury will actually die?

In a word, I think it's going to be bloated, but doubt there's going to be a scene where they all face Thanos at once like the standoff in Civil War. Pacing will inevitably be an issue as we jump around trying to follow multiple character threads,but I hope this will be remedied by focusing mainly on the core cast of the original six Avengers, or better yet just Cap, Tony, Bruce, and Thor.

In the second part it would be great to see that focus shift to be mainly on Dr. Strange, Spider-Man, Black Panther, Vision, and Scarlet Witch, possibly with a little less Scarlet Witch. I really don't think her character is strong enough to be a spotlight hero, and I kind of imagine her satisfying Black Widow's current role, as a support character who shows up in a bunch of other people's movies.

I don't expect the film to be visually enticing from a cinematic perspective, instead I expect it to rely heavily on special effects to create visual spectacles that will be, while memorable, not necessarily breathtaking or emotion inducing. Trent Opaloch has a pretty distinct style which shows impossible fantasies against very raw (and sometimes bleak) camerawork.

Anyone else have thoughts on it?

The Flood / Marvel Rebirth?

http://www.denofgeek.com/us/books-comics/marvel/271124/marvel-reboot-coming-in-may

Could Earth-616, which has been Marvel's main Universe since the first appearance of Namor the Submariner in 1939, be ending?

There aren't a lot of details about Marvel's fresh start yet, so it's too early to say if this will mark the end of their Prime Universe, but I'm not sure if that would be a bad thing.

DC has been accused of overusing the total reboot, but considering how potent it was at the end of Crisis, and how long overdue Marvel is having never done one, it just might be time for them.

The Flood / AMA Sol Update (yoire mom have big gay lol edition)
« on: February 25, 2018, 02:32:14 AM »
So instead of taking a solid look at my life, determining where everything went so shit, and deciding to work on myself, I have been living in a constant state of mental breakdown and only deriving pleasure from getting high marks and anonymous sex.

So basically the same as anyone else in college.

I am pleased to report that I am now heterosexual, but not for the reasons you might think. In fact, my method for achieving heterosexuality was pretty much the opposite of what you'd expect. Unless, that is, you know me that well.

My dad is p much broke. He says he got a new job but hell if I know whether that's true or not. My mom is the same two faced cretin as ever. She'll keep being nice to me until she wants something I bet. My sister is doing very well for herself and I visit her in New York often. She is still dating Cheat and they're getting married in like 2020 or something who the fuck knows. Lesbians yeesh.

I spend most of my days shitposting on discord now, as shitposting online is tedious.

AMA me anything

The Flood / This must be it. Welcome to the new year.
« on: January 01, 2018, 05:26:45 AM »
The drinks were consumed,
the plants were destroyed,
and the hors d'oeuvres dismantled.
I'm not smiling
behind this fake veneer.
I am often interrupted
or completely ignored,
but most of all I'm bored.

I'm trying to find out
if my words have any meaning.
Lackluster and full of contempt
when it always ends the same.

Why won't she listen to me?

Why did I come?
Oh, why did I come here?
These humans all suck.
I'd rather be home
feeling violent and lonely.
I'm not trying to sound so insincere,
but the postcard that's taped to the freezer reads:
"Wish you were here."
How I wish I could disappear.

I'm trying to find out
if my words have any meaning.
Lackluster and full of contempt
when it always ends the same.

Heads up Damage Control,
there's a ring around her finger.
Last chance for changing lanes,
and you missed it by a mile.

Why won't she listen to me?

This must be it.
Welcome to the new year.

The Flood / (If You Want It)
« on: December 29, 2017, 05:44:10 PM »
I can't keep a straight face and say this is not the end.
Not if you want it. It's upon us, and I wanna say it's sinking in.

If I was hasty, maybe I was rushed along.
I won't move into little boxes and then not get the itch to move on.

So I'll think real slow.
Just remember, yes is yes, and no is no.

Melting prints of grass and snow means I may forget the way to get back home.

You're not the first thing in my life I've loved and lost.
Yeah, I've thought worse things that I might be less inclined to merely just shrug off.

You'll take me home.
Like my family did; my father did. I know.
You'll think real slow.

But don't forget the speed that I can go.

I've been convincing myself that I'm worthwhile.
Because I'm worth what I'll convince myself to be.

I met the devil and I stared her in the eyes.

Her hair had scales like silver serpents.
I, a statue, stood there mesmerized.

I took the fire escape and made it out alive.
Yeah, I still burn from time to time, but I've a healing hand against my side.

Blisters on my feet I walked back home.
Frozen by the sleet; burnt sand and stone.

Nourished back to life by life alone.

With one shake of the mane, regain the throne.

Lets face it, people who can bend all four elements are absolute filth. They're either extremly cold, ancient, bald as SHIT, or just all round assclowns. This site would be better off without this inheret menace and we all know this to be true. First, we'll start off with whoever has the brown haired avatar slut as their profule pic because something they posted rubbed me the wrong way oncs.

The Flood / just made my first latte
« on: December 09, 2017, 10:08:25 AM »
This morning I purchased an Aeropress this morning and rushed home to make my first latte.

For ten dollars more, I could've bought an espresso machine, but I've been looking to step up my coffee game and an Aeropress was the obvious next step in general.

I frothed the milk in a 16 ounce glass bottle and microwaved it to the temperature I think tastes best.
I know steaming it the preferred method, but I didn't end up buying that espresso maker, so no steam.

It's one of the better lattes I've had, but nowhere near as good as the ones my sister makes for a living.
By far, superior to anything that could be purchased at Starbucks, unless the barista on duty seriously needed to move up and out to a finer establishment.

The Flood / Ozark is pretty good
« on: November 30, 2017, 03:27:53 PM »
It's trying a little too hard to set itself apart from Breaking Bad, by immediately making some decisions with the show's direction in the first two episodes that are strictly the opposite from what Walt would've done, and it becomes a little obvious that they don't want the show to be looked at as a BB clone.

There are some scenes that I watch and think to myself 'The Director wanted me to say, "Wow, this is brilliant." right here' instead of merely saying, "Wow, this is brilliant."

Overall it has a lot of strengths, and I'm looking forward to seeing Marty Byrde become the kingpin of Lake Ozark as he slowly buys up the whole town.

Unfortunately, one of the biggest weaknesses is Jason Bateman's acting. It isn't bad, and in fact, since he directs and produces the show, it is literally perfect for the character of Marty Byrde. His performance is strong and believable.

The problem is he always plays himself. Marty Byrde is, aside from the tone of a scene, indistinguishable from Michael Bluth. If I wasn't familiar with Bateman's career, this wouldn't be a problem at all, but the fact remains that every five minutes I half expect Will Arnett to glumly walk across the screen to The Sound of Silence.

I've only seen four episodes, so a score is pending, but thus far I can honestly recommend watching this show.
