Redeemed Dark Urge is Immortal

I just learned that if Dark Urge is redeemed and resurrected by Withers, Dark Urge is eternally tied to Withers (Jergal) himself, as long as Withers endures, so will Dark Urge, which unless you’re romancing Lae’zel and plan to eventually stay in the Plane for eternity after Warring with Vlaakith, Dark Urge will probably outlive all their Romances, possibly acting as Jergal’s Chosen for centuries, almost like an Elminster type, which although sounds cool, just a really sad end for the eventuality of Durge outliving their partner, adds to the tragedy of their whole character.

Fuck, I wish we got Durge as a Companion.

H’el

I’d really like to see H’el come around in a Future Superman, I know he’s probably not gonna show up in the next film or probably not at all, James Gunn likes his niche Characters but H’el is less niche than he is controversial probably, I haven’t seen a lot of people liking him but with Jor’el and Lara being as they were portrayed in Superman, I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing H’el as like an experiment of Jor’el, attempting to find the key to unlocking their Yellow Sun powers or something, he sends him into Space and he ends up asleep in a cryo chamber or something, just soaking up yellow sun energy for like 4 Decades before he crashes on Earth, his Mission? Help his Brother, Kal’el, Conquer.

I’ve only read a bit about H’el but I find a lot of tragic potential in his Character, it could be, unlike Clark, H’el was made as a kind of Kryptonian Super Soldier, genetically engineered for Battle and sort of acts like an Enforcer for Jor’el throughout Krypton as a Member of the Planets Elite or something, when the Planets destruction comes about, Jor’el decides to send H’el out first to make sure it’s safe for Kal’el, seeing H’el more as a Resource rather than a Sun, but should he survive, Jor’el and Lara order him to find and help Kal’el, he somehow ends up in the Milky Way soaking up Yellow Sun while asleep and/or trapped in a Pod, he crash lands on Earth to find two Kryptonians, both his Family technically, all depends on whether they made him Clark’s actual Older Brother or more just engineered by Jor’el through DNA or something.

Anyway, it’s an idea, I’m not really sure of the major consensus of H’el as a character by much of the Fandom, I honestly don’t see him talked about a lot, but I think it’d be cool to see him cause I honestly really like him, I like his design a lot, I like the idea of at the end of his story, Clark actually convinces him to abandon his ways, maybe he becomes a hero but I think it’d be nice to see him just want peace.

Lanterns Manhunters

What if it’s not the Androids, what if they think it’s many, but really it’s one, one of the ORIGINAL Manhunters which the Androids were designed from…what if J’onn is appearing in Lanterns?

Personally I’d fucking love if this were true but I’m really split on it, cause that second in the trailer where we saw the Manhunter change form, that really didn’t looked similar to the natural Transformation of J’onn’s shapeshifting, not the android Manhunter shapeshifting, then again, they could be going the other way and having the Manhunters just be a continuation of the Martian Manhunters, no androids, just Galaxy wide Manhunters, what are your guys’ thoughts?

Character Episodes (Random Cope)

I very much doubt this will ever be a thing, but fuck I’d love inbetween seasons we get just a few little episodes focussing on characters after the Tourney that we probably won’t see again, like Raymun establishing the Roots of his House at New Barrel, Lyonel returning to Storms End which would probably just be a whole 30 minutes of him sulking about Dunk not coming with him lol, or Maekar catching up with Dunk and Egg on his own, Egg convinces him this is what he needs and then Maekar gives him the Targaryen Ring, which I think will still happen, I’m thinking they’re saying Sam Spruell won’t be in the next season because they’ve already filmed the Scene where he catches up with them and gives Egg the ring, it maybe cope but if that happens ima feel so fucking validated, but if that’s so then Maekar’s Character Episode could be from his perspective as he arrives Home to face his Father and Brothers after the Death of Baelor.

But anyway idrk what this post is, I just feel like it this idea would’ve been a cool addition, a way to get more out of these characters and say goodbye since it’s doubtful many of them will return, let me know if this idea is cool or I’m just an idiot.

I just fucking miss this show man, especially with HOTD rn, it’s just made me realise how much better this show is compared to that troglodyte series, I can’t wait for Season 2, Dorne, Ser Useless, long haired Dunk, fuck I’m excited.

Titles Of A Faerûnian Emperor

Hey everyone, I was introduced to the Forgotten Realms Universe when first playing BG3, my now favourite Game of all time, I was wondering, as a person mostly unfamiliar with much of Faerûnian Culture and History, if a Faerûnian Emperor happened to somehow appear, conquering the entirety of the Continent, however unrealistic in this world, what titles would he possess? Like Lord of the Chionthar?

This is purely out of curiosity, I know in the Forgotten Realms Universe, a United Faerûn is near impossible for Gods to achieve lol, but what kinds of aspects would you expect or want in a hypothetical Faerûnian Empire?

The Sequels Make Me Sad

Near unlimited potential, several galaxies worth of creativity within the Star Wars universe, Rey, Finn, Poe, Hux, Ben, all could’ve been unbelievably phenomenal characters with such great actors behind them, zero blame to them, they did fantastic with what they were given, the dynamic between Kylo Ren and Hux was completely wasted, unlike Tarkin and Vader which felt like two titans of fear, one side the cruel bureaucracy of the Empire in Tarkin, and the other side it’s raw power in Vader, whereas Hux and Kylo felt like children both vying for the attention of the same parent, Hux could’ve been an unreal character from how he was introduced in the Force Awakens, yet he was reduced to a joke and then…a Spy…the man who ordered the evisceration of Billions…was a Spy for the good guys.

They wanted to make money so badly that they completely disregarded a formulated plan for the Sequel Trilogy, leaving it jumbled and near senseless, there are ofc aspects that are enjoyable but the majority is just ‘what the fuck am I watching?’ The Prequels had there fair share of problems ofc, but every second of them is still enjoyable to me, yes even the Anakin/Padme romance in AOTC, I love everything about Star Wars and it just feels like the last appearance of the Original Trio was completely wasted, I think they shouldn’t have gone forward but backwards, the gold mine they’d have with an Old Republic Era Trilogy but they just wanted to milk the Skywalker name.

I know this is probably a dead topic, I don’t come on this sub much, but man it just makes me so sad, so much talent and creativity wasted because of greed and carelessness, Andor gives me hope, and Mando and Grogu was fun, not every Star Wars movie has to fit into the Trilogy or some big plot, sometimes it’s okay for a Movie to just be an adventure, though I do understand peoples criticism of it being just a long Mando Episode, I don’t have big hopes for that Ryan Gosling Star Wars movie that I have a feeling will be cancelled.

Star Wars needs passion, any art does, without it, it isn’t art, it’s a product.

Sorry for the long rant, thanks to whoever read through this whole thing, I think maybe I just miss how I felt when I first went to see the Force Awakens, fuck those were happy times, now everything’s grim, maybe I just grew up but I just miss it

As An Agnostic…I Don’t Know?

I’m an Agnostic, even saying that to me is a bit of a stretch as I just believe in no one knows so anything can be, look at the universe and all of the newly discovered phoneme, what I hope and what I think is at the end of life are different, I hope what we do after death is simply dream for eternity, since in a dream there’s no concept of time, and it’s been proven that we do dream at least a short time after death, maybe? But I don’t know, no one does and that’s okay.

Anyway, the purpose of this post is that, and this maybe controversial, I’ve seen many debates of Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, Atheist Philosopher/Debaters ig? I’m not sure what to call them, they’re both incredibly intelligent and have very sound views but honestly, rip to Mr. Hitchens, they seem like assholes, respect to them both but in my view spending your entire careers just trying to debunk people’s belief in something, if they’re not hurting anyone, and being quite arrogant in doing so when you have none yourself is slightly pathetic in my view, it makes it more difficult for me to understand people’s point of view whenever they’re so dismissive or unsympathetic to people who they’re debating with and maybe I’ve been reading their comments wrong but it just seems that’s the case with them, I still agree with many of their takes but like, what do you get by breaking down a persons belief if they’re already at peace with we’re they are?

My view is Religion, like anything, including Atheism, can be distorted into something awful and hateful, extremists of any kind are extremely dangerous, my view is just let people be, just let folk believe whatever they want to believe, just be a nice person, if you believe there is nothing after death, all power to you but don’t make everyone else miserable because you don’t like that they believe in a faith that you believe to be stupid or unrealistic, I don’t believe religion is the source of all evil and all war in the world, that’s taking too much responsibility away from human beings, specifically the wealthiest class that have been in power since damn near the beginning of time, I believe in ‘ism’ beyond Classism, I think every other ‘isn’ is constructed by the Oligarchical/Epstein Class in order to stop regular people from banding together against these billionaire cunts.

I want to make it clear, I’m not attacking any Atheists in the slightest, I don’t care what anyone believes in so long as they’re a good person, if you believe in Zues or Odin, Vishnu or Tengri, even fucking Chernabog, it doesn’t matter to me so long as you greet the world the way you would greet yourself, or at least someone you love if you’re not big on yourself like me lol, just live without hurting or hating, I don’t get why that’s so hard, but I just think people underestimate how everyone, even Atheists, can become extremists just as much as any Muslim, Christian or Jew can, just live and let live people, you don’t need to prove to anyone what exists or what doesn’t, if you believe, just believe and focus on being happy, if you don’t, just don’t and focus on being happy, in the end that’s really all that matters, you gotta enjoy every second, don’t live like you gotta prove anything to anyone, just be free in your own way however you want.

There’s just too much hate in the world man, way too much and it’s only fatiguing the world into apathy. I’m sorry for the rant, if you’ve read this far I’m sorry lol, and I thank you for listening to my ted talk, and I hope you’re chilling with a smile wherever you’re reading, thanks a lot.

What I Liked About Man Of Steel

I absolutely loved David Corenswets Superman, I have many problems with Man of Steel but what they did flawlessly imo was General Zod, his relationship with Jor’El, big ups Aussie/Kiwi legend Russell Crowe whose also awesome in MOS, and Krypton’s World Building in the beginning which I really liked, Michael Shannon as Zod was the first time I ever saw him, he cemented himself as one of my favourite Actors when I first saw MOS in Cinemas, I love Superman 2 but Michael Shannon was the perfect Zod, not just a mad dictatorial cunt, but someone literally need to protect his planet by any means necessary, I really really loved Michael Shannon as Zod and whenever Zod reappears, whether after Braniac in Man of Tomorrow or whenever, whoever plays him has some mighty big shoes to fill.

Michael Shannon is fucking awesome, that basically sums up the reason for this post lol, watched him in Death By Lightning recently where he plays President James Garfield and as always he’s awesome, so although I may have problems with most aspects of Man of Steel, the Costume Design, Effects, Jor’El, Zod, and the Krypton Sequence were really great, I don’t mean to start fights with anyone about which is the better movie, I just wanna say fucking fair play to Michael Shannon and Russell Crowe for giving awesome performances, literally perfect Zod imo.

Sarevok Armour Set Mod? PlayStation

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to find one but I have downloaded this whole Durge Armour and Clothing Pack that mostly includes really powerful Armour that looks like the Guardians Armour, Ketheric’s Armour, Orin’s Armour, but none that look like Sarevok’s which is not only one of the coolest, but also fitting for a Durge Armour Mod, so if that rings a bell for any related mods, please let me know.

I always read his mind and convince him to leave in order to spread the word of the Absolute, after the Netherbrain is destroyed, I hope my guy is either chilling, or we’ll see him in future as Goblin King, anything else is unacceptable, the dude could change Goblin Society for the better.

Also completely unrelated, holy fuck Wyll is like so racist to Goblins, like everyone of the companions aren’t thrilled about them but dude chill out, dudes straight up calling for genocide of the Goblins.

Romance Question [OTHER]

I’m considering buying both KCD Games and getting into the series, I love History and I love RPG’s, I’m a massive fan of Baldur’s Gate 3, the first 3 Dragon Age games, Mass Effect, I’ll have no trouble with getting into the swing of combat, I never really do, but one main factor that I love is Romance, I hate the fact that I kind of need a romance in an RPG, idk why I always like the idea of a happy ending with your love in RPG’s.

I’ve heard that Henry’s romance options aren’t too broad in terms of character and story, so I’m just looking for some opinions on if the Romance aspect of this game is worth it or really more just another type of side quest? I’d appreciate any answers, thanks for reading

The Dark Urge

Dude (in my case, I always play Male Durge) was a fucking intelligent DND version of Homelander, so utterly evil and deplorable, and I find it kinda funny that Durge’s greatest Enemy is said to be Minsc, I just imagine for decades Durge stewing over Minsc, his destiny to slay him, while Minsc happily had zero clue of Durge’s existence…the Greatest Child of Bhaal’s greatest Enemy…was supposed to be Uncle Minsc.

But seriously, the dude would’ve been so fucking scary, just having a vile, intimidating presence, never knowing who he’d kill or maim, the very personification of Bhaal’s doctrine, basically Bhaal himself before he achieved Godhood, and even then, we don’t know what Bhaal was like before other than he was a Mortal Assassin, being granted the Godhood of Murder may have been what drove him to utter insanity, whereas Durge was raised to be who he was, and he made his Father clearly VERY proud.

Pre Redemption Dark Urge might legitimately be one of the most deplorably evil Characters in Toril, I legit imagine him being similar to Roose Bolton, just pure fucking fear exuding from him.

It’s a shame, I would’ve loved to have Default Durge as a Romanceble Companion with a full Story, might’ve even got more people playing as Tav, but anyway, idk what this post is, but I’ve played like several Durge Playthroughs, and I just noticed I’ve made him look like a Drow Homelander, and then that reminded me of how truly awful Homelander is and how Durge was probably a similar type of psycho to Homelander before losing his memories.

Anyone who’s still reading, I’m sorry you had to listen to this nonsensical rant lol, I fucking love Baldur’s Gate and thanks for reading.

Which Outfit is Best?

My V is a Street Kid brawler and I’m tryna figure out which outfit is best until I can get Johnny’s jacket, so I’d love any opinions.

This is a clip from the Film, the Conspiracy, based on the Wansee Conference of January 20th, 1942, the high ranking Nazi Leadership gather to orchestrate a “Final Solution to the Jewish Question”, Millions of Lives ended in a meeting that lasted a day, when Genocide was written into official Nazi Policy, and this scene in particular where Wilhelm Stuckart, Co-Author of the Nuremberg Laws, argues with another participant of the Conference about what should be done with German Spouses of Jews regarding sterilisation.

This scene has always struck a cord with me because of how disturbingly relevant it is regarding Israel, whom I fully believe has taken inspiration from the Nazi Ideals in regard to Palestinians, forced sterilisation has always been a major weapon for Israel, such as when they forcefully sterilised Ethiopian-Jews first arriving, or the many instances with Palestinians Prisoners, I just find it so unbelievably disturbing how this exact rhetoric is most likely being spoken within Israeli Meetings, discussing ways on how better to rid themselves of the “lesser race”, it’s a disgusting thought that if there is a Hell, Adolf Hitler himself would be laughing, believing himself right and the world wrong, how fucking disgusting is that?

Please feel free to share your thoughts, and free Palestine forever

Dude is honestly fucking corny, I get it, Robert’s Dad kinda reminds me of a less severe Soldier Boy from the Boys, but Shroud, dude straight up lied to Robert to sound cool about Killing his Dad “I put the fourth through his skull 😎🤓” like no bro, you shot him once from behind and ran away, only to be caught like the next day or some shit, dude just straight up lies to sound cool, it’s kinda disappointing considering I love Matt Mercer and Dispatch as a whole, but fuck I hope Season 2 has a villain that’s both threatening and likeable as a villain, Shroud isn’t likeable or threatening, I feel like it gets put on too much with him “He’s such a threat” but then as soon as his tech is fried he’s fucked in a fight, and then goes onto threaten a dog. Yeah, I definitely wanna spare you now
