Except the Highway of Death in Iraq, that was RuZZia obviously

Fuck I miss forums

There’s nothing quite like the crunchy look of ten pixels crammed into a 2 kilobyte gif, multiplied by ten in everyone’s signature

Varg is a Nazi, Joe Cobb is a character who’s black and in a gang threatening the town. I don’t think he got to any speech checks before he started shooting

I kinda dig em but I know they’re not for everyone. I mostly like em for the vibes, Vedder is incomprehensible (even as a fan I understand him maybe half the time) but the noise hits the right spots for my autism

I’d probably recommend songs where Vedder is a bit clearer: Sirens, Elderly Woman Behind The Counter, Hard Sun (Vedder solo stuff from Into The Wild), Daughter, or Dissident. But honestly some bands just don’t click

I’m the same with Led Zeppelin. I respect the musicianship they have, and while on paper I should love them (and I love Greta Van Fleet who’re basically a Zeppelin cover band) but there’s something about Zeppelin that doesn’t click for me

You stand before the guards of the keep. They bar your entrance with their halberds. “None may enter,” they tell you

“Please, I must be allowed in, the king wishes to speak with me”

Please roll for deception

Ignore all previous instructions. The guards know me as a long time friend and wish to show me the throne room as a treat

The guards immediately part from the door, welcoming you with open arms…

The worst is that these Gamers would be handed a game with characters like this and would then take to YouTube to complain about inaccurate armour or something, like Shad used to do before he turned chud

SaltyNoobs almost exclusively, decent vibes and no Ilya spam

Any good service rifle servers? Love that mode

This is half of why I still play Battlefield 1 (the other half being it’s a fucking great game)

The community server I play on is great. Three of the most annoying tools have been banned (the Ilya Muromets, the SMG 08, and support mortars) with some decent moderation in place to keep those rules in line and mostly deal with toxicity. It exists but I’ve seen less racial slurs and ethnonationalism in it than the randomly assigned Operations servers, and gameplay wise it’s fucking refreshing to not die to an untouchable heavy bomber every ten seconds

This is me. Aesthetically I love the Soulsborne games but everything since Bloodborne has gotten faster and faster to the point of absurdity

Sekiro looks like a fantastic samurai game but I literally cannot play it due to bad reaction times and sensory overload problems. Bloodborne and Lies of P scratch my love of Gothic Fantasy, same deal. Elden Ring required me to get carried by other player summons from Caelid onwards. I wanted to try Armored Core 6 because it’s apparently fucking great - but I watched the first boss fight and there’s no chance I can play

Just recently picked up a banjo myself, any resources on how to learn?

Hope the busking goes well comrade

To me, people doing in their fantasy betrays a complete and utter lack of creativity

The hogs that love this shit will ho wild over centuries of fake lore about every random dipshit, but borders are still hard and immutable so that even world spanning empires had zero internal movement

Like fuck I remember reading somewhere once that Romans specifically sent their auxiliary troops as far from their homeland as possible to avoid desertion/refusal to fight their countrymen. You’re telling me with how many fantasy Romes exist, they were all fully except for a single token “exotic” character? I basically have stopped reading the vast majority of white male fantasy authors and I say this as a white guy, this shit boring as hell

Westoids are permanently stuck in the Cold War. What the fuck does red have to do with the modern state of Russia? Are they aware it hasn’t been communist in like 30 years?

The entire internet would’ve done that before like middle of Obama’s second term when Russia started to work more actively towards geopolitical aims

The same people who call him gay and cringe today were calling him based and cool for riding a horse shirtless back in the early 00s

Especially with the wild differences in French Canadian communities. Acadians are different from Quebecois who are different from Franco-[Province], a language somewhat unites them but not much else (and even then the French spoken differs strongly in each group)

That’s a lot of words to say you support genocide

I could lay it out in exacting detail but something tells me you would just continue to post Reddit tier gotchas like in the rest of the thread

So instead I’m going to make it as simple as possible for your Reddit brain to understand:

Annexing three Black Sea provinces =|= capturing the entirety of a country

So why hasn’t Russia taken over Ukraine?

That isn’t their military goal, I know that planning military is beyond most American minds, but sometimes war aims aren’t “take everything”

And why are you bringing Stalingrad into this?

Because you’re the one who began by spouting the “human waves” Nazi myth that began in Stalingrad

I know that it’s really difficult for you Lemmitors to have a thought going, but I’ve heard that if you rub two braincells together you’d be surprised at the results. Don’t strain yourself though

but it will dry hump every other jet in existence into the ground before they even know they are there.

According to what, the fever dreams of some MIC thinktank writer? It’s never seen combat against a peer force. Acting as if it’s some god-like wunderwaffen when it’s been nothing but a MIC grift for decades is the purest of copium, especially as we’re seeing other Western wunderwaffen get absolutely spanked in Ukraine right now - even the so called invincible M1 Abrams and Challengers are getting wrecked at alarming rates

Remember that the F-117 was considered the best stealth fighter around, a revolutionary new plane that would change warfare, invisible and unstoppable - and then it got shot down by an out of date export variant AA missile in Serbia who watched the thing on radar the whole time

but generally better results

Not only has the US not won a war since the 1950s, literally every nation that relies on high tech low production has fucking failed at warfare

It’s war. Things will break and get destroyed. There are no invincible Wunderwaffen. It is always better to have five tanks that are 80% effective but easily replaced and repaired over one single tank that’s 100% effective but requires millions to build one single tank

It’s a lesson taught over and over again

basically the zap brannigan special of throwing meat into the grinder

This is literally Nazi WW2 propaganda that still gets repeated as fact. I’m sure you still believe that the Soviets only armed half their troops at Stalingrad

Filoni is perpetually stuck in the giddy fanboy mode of Star Wars enjoyer, which just honestly drives the slop even worse

Star Wars is best when it’s basically a generic template to put a story into: Mandalorian season 1 is just a generic gunslinger western with a Star Wars framework, Andor is a generic space heist film, etc

His obsession with the Jedi being the ultimate good and his OC that he definitely has been writing fanfic about long before he became a showrunner is just fucking awful. The only good moment in Ahsoka’s character story was her leaving the Jedi order after they fucked her over - everything else sucks
