TROPHY CASE

[ASoS spoiler] Little known fact about Dothraki weddings by Nukemarinein gameofthrones

"Welcome to the Game of Thrones Reddit The HBO Series & All Things GRRM"

I'm working on a new shirt and I'd like to get /r/firefly's take on it before releasing it. I welcome constructive criticism. by DorkKnight27in firefly

I see the hipster glasses are included to really drive the point home emphasise that it's a joke.

FTFY

I didn't think they were bad, I just never thought they were anything to write home about. The gravity gun stood out. I played with that thing for ages.

What do you mean I "strawmann'd it"? If it means I lied or something in my description, that was actually and honest representation of my experience as I remember it. I didn't just stop playing an "amazing game" to have an argument on the internet. I sincerely got bored.

Half-life 2 has a story that beats out any new Final Fantasy, and god damned especially World of Warcraft anyday.

And OK, I do understand that people's opinions can differ from my own. But I don't play WoW for the story anyways. It's the people and world I like.

And yes, it is pretty linear

I'd just like to say that I don't usually find this as a bad thing in story-driven games, which I assume HL-2 is. I just mentioned the linearity because there wasn't any motivation for me so all I had was "There's only one way. Might as well see what's down there"

WoW was more about the community, playing with friends and overall teamwork. I find it gets boring fast (especially at max level) if you don't play with others. I was under the impression that HL-2 was more about the environment, characters and story which is also why I don't judge the game by the weapons or anything like that.

They're very different games and appeal to very different tastes.

[–]DefaultPlayer 3 points4 points ago

I don't know. I guess I didn't really get the motivation. How I remember it was:

There were people, living in a shit-hole Orwellian style world and I... was there also. Then I followed a linear path to escape, to get to a doctor. The Doc then tries to transport me and fucks up, and then I have to try to get back to them. I don't understand why, but that's the linear path in front of me, so I followed it. And after a while of that I got bored.

I never really gave it this much thought, but now I find myself wondering why everyone else likes it so much. I usually just thought "Meh, differences of opinion", but now I can't see why anyone would like what I described (provided it's in any way accurate).

I put a lot of time into a lot of games. WoW and Battlefield are my online games. I tend to try to complete my games (get all weapons and achievements, etc). The offline ones that I sunk most of my time into and got 100% in (or the equivalent of) are the Final Fantasy series, Tony Hawk games (up until Underground 2), Grand Theft Auto....

They're just the games over the years that gave a lot of play time, for comparison.

I just found nothing that interested me in Half-Life, and I own all of them. I tend not to talk about it on reddit though, because as you can see, you get just downvoted for it.

I can't remember exactly how long I was playing but there was a priest with a shotgun or something around the point I quit. (The last name I remember was Ravenholm so I just assumed that was it).

I was playing for a few hours at that point. How long would you suggest I give a game before I find something interesting?

I was playing for a few hours at that point. How many hours should I give to a game before deciding I don't like it?

Edit: Made my comment make more legible.

I played up until Ravenholm. Got bored and turned on something else (I think I was playing WoW and BF2 at the time).

Just not the game for me.

Because sitting on a bench is too mainstream by xSwirlin pics

[–]DefaultPlayer 79 points80 points ago

Have you ever tried sitting in those benches? Man, I hate them. They're curved in a way that you can't slouch OR sit straight, and worst of all, they are slanted so they're difficult to get out of. Also, what the shit type of arm-rest is that?

You know what, fuck those chairs, and thank those people. They're doing everyone a service by blocking them off.

Nope, I honestly don't know what he means.

[–]DefaultPlayer -2 points-1 points ago

I don't think I understand. Are you saying that people's upvotes when they haven't looked at the comments shouldn't count?

Wolverine's Secret by X-_-Xin funny

[–]DefaultPlayer -3 points-2 points ago

35 comments so far. Most of them filled with hate. However, the votes stand at +1472/-1061.

So if the majority think this is funny, then no I don't see why the "OP" "faggot" should "fuck off" "back to 9gag".

Just cast your vote and move on.

TIL Richard Harris who plays DUMBLEDORE, only accepted the role because his 10-year-old granddaughter threatened never to speak to him again if he did not take it. by TheDKin todayilearned

[–]DefaultPlayer 10 points11 points ago

If you watched the movies soon after each other, then yes, otherwise no. The two actors played the same character very differently. I found Harris' to be spot on whereas Gambon's always seemed angry or something. A major difference imo.

There's one key part of the costume missing. The smile.
