Damn, wtf is 2WEI.
Just reminded me how much I fucking LOVED the Tomb Raider trailer cover of Survivor.
They also have this cover of Britney Spears' Toxic: https://youtu.be/yL7IRngzIdk
They've been a busy bunch with stuff like this.
@Tempest said in Meg and Pikachu:
Gangsta's Paradise, though.
Why.
Like...really. WHY?
Yeah, they should have at least used the version they put in the trailer for Valerian.
I'm making this thread because I believe Surprised Pikachu has been replaced in our hearts and in our minds, and I want @Meg to embrace the new icon of shock and surprise...

@Rucket I beg of you, keep the name. That name (and dude) needs to hang out with one of the surgical residents from when I was in the hospital for 'STOP BEING A WOD CHARACTER IN REAL LIFE MAN!'-ness.
(Seriously, a buff, hot, tribal-tatted, geek-literate mid-late 20s surgical resident/budding doctor genius who was charming as hell with an equally WoD name I won't repeat here since it's a real person and the poor soul would get so googled. Kinfolk doctor stereotype, GO!)
Well, I'd keep the idea of a politician who sacrificed goats and drank the blood, because well... Florida. But this guy was at Charlottesville, so fuck everything else about this guy.
@Cupcake Interesting, thank you. Maybe my sister might be into something like that. She loves going to Disneyland.

Garrus is cool.
I'm gonna wait for Liara, thank you.
Nearly fucking cried my eyes out before the final battle, when Shepard parted from her.
Nah. Garrus isn't cool. Garrus is bae.
It's life-changing.
Well maybe not life-changing. But wow.

Obligatory 'Do not donate your money to the Catholic church, one of the richest entities in the world. Donate to rebuild the churches in St Landry Parish if the destruction of churches makes you sad:
100%. Besides I think some really rich dude already said he was going to drop 100 million euro for Notre Dame. So helping out these churches who were part of some asshole's hate-filled rampage is better, imo.
I had to google it to find out that it was from the lesser known version of House of Cards.

Okay, this is a Mummy related thing I could get behind.

@Ghost said in General Video Game Thread:
@Rucket I dunno. I'm playing Div2 right now and I can say it doesn't really preach. The baseline content is political, but then again it doesn't matter the politics of a fictitious president or what his platform is; if DC gets hit by a virus and terrorism, it is what it is.
It's not very "oooo-rah save Murica". It's more "Hey this settlement of people dont have running water because a group of lawless shitheads have overtaken the water supply. Let's help get water to those kids."
I'm actually really a fan of how it shows progress. At the beginning a settlement in some building might be bombed out without food, but after a few missions you come back and they're all "Hey, we we're able to put together a video game system and school for the kids, and the hydroponics garden is set up to grow food."
As far as games that are run around and shoot guns, I think it's a more community "help each other", which I think is nice for a change.
Yeah I agree with all of that, I just meant that as far as enemy faction goes, a lot of the dialogue and shit I've seen from the True Sons reminds me of a mix of hard right wing militias and the Proud Boys, lol. It's not incredibly overt, but stuff is there. But yeah, the progression on settlements and doing quests to give settlements new ways to feed themselves/entertain themselves/educate themselves/whatever is pretty sweet.
Re: politics in games.
It's pretty funny that Ubisoft tried to say Division 2 was apolitical, but the there's a LOT of similarities between the True Sons and the Proud Boys, lol. Though I guess making people drop shiny guns and making shooting fun helps to keep people from thinking about it too much.

is there a right way to be a lesbian??
I assume the answer to this question in MUdom can best be represented by this gif:
I saw the title of the thread and thought it was about Peyton Manning's playcalling.
@krmbm said in Wheel of Time:
Was talking about this with someone yesterday.
Still a thing?
Yeah I'm slowly working on some stuff. Though probably doesn't help that the Division 2 dropped and I've had friends drag me into playing that, haha.
@ZombieGenesis said in Good or New Movies Review:
Went and saw it and my experience was "meh". It just felt like something they had to do so they could get to stuff they REALLY wanna do. Not a terrible movie overall but, IMO, one of the weaker Marvel movies(above the likes of Thor Dark World or Iron Man 3 but way below Guardians of the Galaxy or Avengers: Infinity War).
I have not seen it yet, but this is the general opinion of some of my friends as well. That it's a decent movie, but probably forgettable in the grand scheme of Marvel movies (which tbh most Marvel movies are only really good the first time around for me, but then again I'm a die hard fanboy for The Dark Knight).
