Once in a while I go on a binge and surf MM and customs for a bit, and man, I just can't do Reach no matter how hard I try. Like, it seems like the game's mechanics and weapon sandbox are a perfectly bad combo of sweatlord and self punishment.

I can play Halo CE cause its old physics and wack maps are fun, and perfect 3 shots with the pistol is easy to understand even though the reticule doesn't represent what the bloom does when you hold the trigger rather than quickly tap it. Halo 2's a nostalgia glitchfest and easy going, Halo 3's mechanics have been altered from OG Halo 3 and are a bit frustrating alongside the workable, yet unbalanced sandbox.

And then there's Reach. If you're using any covenant weapon and competing against its counterpart, its automatic loss unless the other player is a potato. You want to pace your shots so bloom doesn't fuck you? Get dicked up the ass by a guy spamming across the map. Tired of the bullshit bloom and go for title update physics? Welcome to DMR fuckfest. You want to play some good old brain cell killing infection? Have fun with pro sword clashers and dead bodies infecting you.

I really want to add Reach to the roster of game modes when I get into a mood for pubstomping or brain cell death in customs, but every time I try it just leaves a sour taste in me because of its bullshit mechanics and the fact that it spawned all the bad trends that still currently plague newer titles.

i feel the opposite for halo 2 and reach. halo 2 always feels so sweaty and stressful, while reach is usually easygoing

im 5 episodes into the anime

it's alright, i feel like all the characters are kinda unlikeable

and the main dude, his whole goal is touching titties, while funny the first couple times is kinda too much now... like i understand he has "shallow" dreams compared to everyone else and thats the point, but like come on what is this, highschool dxd

alright i finished it

so yeah i still feel the same way about the characters

i actually warmed up to denji and power but only then theyre together. alone, theyre both kinda annoying

the only character i ended up liking was the dude with the sword

i mean i get it, im not a car person but i know a lot of people love to hear a good sounding, uh, engine or exhaust (idk the lingo lol)

Listen to this and you'll change your mind

YouTube

too loudddddd

i kinda like them. i could definitely see myself owning one, but maybe someday when the technology is even better, or if they havent been outclassed already, by, say hydrogen powered vehicles

i appreciate that theyre quiet, i fucking despise loud, annoying, wannabe racers with their fast & furious cars

alright ill give it a try, wasnt sure what anime to watch next anyways

Spy x Family

i already watched it! waiting for season 2 now

my friend keeps telling me to watch it, idk doesnt seem like my kinda thing

To-do, sorted by nearest to completion:
Area 51 (PS2)
Fallout 4
Fallout 2
Bully
Resident Evil 1

i plan to play fallout 4 sometime. i completed 3 a few days ago, and i loved it along with new vegas a while back. fallout 4 goty (that comes w/ all the dlc) is on sale for $10, so i might pick it up to play god knows when

i also wish the gyms had level scaling or something as well, i did my first gym (the grass one) and i stomped on it cuz all my pokemon were like 10 levels higher

later on i did the team star base, the one with mela (meia? the red hair chick) and we were equally leveled and the fight was actually fairly challenging, which was great

whats good in the hood

10 monthly reminder to watch assassination classroom

i second this again

artists scrambling rn

SoCal drank all our water

we need moooore

alright i watched the presentation

"scarlet and violet will be an open world rpg, a first in the pokemon series" what was legends arceus then? i didnt play that game

when i heard the male professors name, i thought they said churro lol, didnt know his name was turo

that new gimmick seems a bit confusing, does it mean any pokemon can be ANY type? if so then it might lead to some interesting setups and the like

the scarlet legendary having wheels but running on its legs looks so silly

nice! im looking at those leaderboards and i see only you and a handful of others have photo proof of your score, while 2nd, 3rd and many others dont have proof

doesnt seem very fair to not have to include proof

I’ll play just to use Tom and Jerry

i been wanting to rewatch tom & jerry for a while, but i dont even know where it would be available

edit: nvm i looked it up, it's on hbo max... lame, i dont have that streaming service
