I use Light Step, but still disable explosives so ED-E doesn’t get hurt

ED-E is baby.

So it seems like Sam and Cat IS canon to the reboot.

I find that interesting considering Jeanette and Ariana are both not going to appear in Hollywood Arts for obvious reasons.

What exactly was Brenner's plan here?

Was he expecting to outrun a helicopter while carrying El? It's not like he had a vehicle or something waiting for him up there. Even if he did have a car stashed somewhere, it's not like it's gonna outspeed the helicopter, plus the sniper could've just shot out it's tires.
I get that he probably wasn't expecting the helicopter, but was he just expecting Sullivan to politely knock? He had the entire Nina Project planned out, only to come up with the shittiest escape route possible.
If I was in Brenner's shoes I would've taken El back into the tunnel so she could recooperate, then have her take down the chopper.

Operation: Anchorage Gary Glitch

Is it possible to dupe Minigun Ammo with it? Some of the soldiers at the end of the DLC are carrying Miniguns, but I can't pickpocket them without them noticing. Is it possible with a high enough sneak skill? Or is there any other way to acquire a minigun in the DLC?

(Possible?) Hot take, Demogorgon's are scarier unflayed.

The Russian Demo that had no attachment to the Mind Flayer was imo the scariest Demo. In season 1 and 5 the Demo's are much slower and weaker. Steve goes toe to toe with one with nothing but a spiked bat. Lucas easily outruns one and Mike scares it off with a few whacks from a shovel. A bunch of grown Russian men with much stronger weapons do much less damage and are easily obliterated.

Bracket from Hell

Holy shit this might be the most insane Bracket I’ve gotten in a while. Might coincide with the Lucky Banner that just dropped?

u/TenthBasilisk88 — 3 months ago

I’ve been saving for this banner my whole life

I’m so ready, should get at least 2 epics with this.

I wanna do a low karma and Legion playthrough, but am a bit conflicted on what to do with...

The Van Graffs. They're evil, so helping them out would make sense for an evil character, but completing their quest, Birds of a Feather, results in them setting up a sting operation against the Legion and helps out the NCR, which wouldn't make sense for a Legion courier to do, so I'm not quite sure what to do with them. There's also the option of just wiping them out for Cass's quest or to join the Brotherhood, but both of them work against the Legion.
This is kinda an issue I've noticed with New Vegas, in that the Legion got the short end of the stick due to time and budget constraints, which in turn makes roleplaying an evil character not very interesting or rewarding.

Brahmin on the Strip?

I was heading to the NCR Embassy when this Brahmin just ran past me and disappeared 😭
I’m playing on Xbox and have no access to console commands, so genuinely I’m stumped as to how this happened.

Nightstalker and Cazador origins

It's explained in the Old Word Blues DLC that Nightstalkers and Cazadors were bio-engineered in the Big MT and managed to escape out into the Mojave, but Nightstalker and Cazador are names that the scientists in the Big MT gave to those creatures, so how would anyone outside of the Big MT know to call them that?

Is Coins Card mastery a good ROI?

So far out of Econ Card Masteries I've got RPC, Cash, IS, WA, WS, and EO. Really the reason that I'm hesitant to buy Coin mastery is that it's 1250 stones, which is kind of a lot. I have both GT+ and Generator Assmod unlocked, so 1250 stones could boost both of those a good amount. I've got GT+ at level 3, and Assmod is only at epic with 10% multiplier efficiency and 1% substat effeciency.
There's also Critical Coin Mastery, but Critical Coin just isn't very good on it's own, so I doubt buying the mastery is going to change that.

Is there a way to handle Facehuggers without attracting a Xeno?

When a Facehugger attacks you have no choice but to kill it, but once it's dead, the Xeno isn't usually far behind. I'm not sure what exactly gets the Xeno's attention, whether it's the high pitched squeal from the Facehugger, or the sound of the flamethrower. I know you can kill it with the Maintenance jack and the pistol, but both are noisier than the flamethrower, so is there a way to deal with them stealthily?

Do you guys also have odd/irrational phobias?

My two most unhinged fears are Minecraft mobs. Not joking. I'm terrified of Minecraft squids and silverfish. I have Thalassophobia and Scoleciphobia, so if I had to guess it's rooted in those fears. I just remember being like 5-6 playing Minecraft on my ipad and being traumatized by both because they reminded me of facehuggers, and I've just never kicked the fear, I'm 17 now.

Fear of Minecraft Squids.

This is a 100% serious post. Ever since I was a kid I've just been utterly terrified of them, and have never been able to shake it. I guess it's just because of the way they look, but also the thought of them latching onto my face and attacking me like a facehugger. Looking at them or being around them freaks me out. If I'm just watching a video of someone playing minecraft then that diminishes the effect they have on me, but actually playing minecraft myself I struggle to be in or around water due to them never being that far. I also have thalassophobia, so that might have something to do with it, but the thing is I discovered this fear of squids far before I discovered my thalassophobia. To add to it, I'm also afraid of other minecraft mobs in a similar way, such as Silverfish and Endermites, but I was kind of able to shake that by exposure therapy.

What would happen if Dark Mayhem's orb was used on Captain Man?

Unlike the Thunderman's, Ray wasn't born with his powers, he acquired them because of his dad's machine. We've seen his powers on occasion be disabled such as with the omega weapon, or the tears of the Jolly Beatle, so I think the orb could theoretically work on Ray. Captain Man on his own has always been a bit of an odd one out since he operates seperate from the Hero League, so maybe there's something special about him and his powers that would make him a vulnerability when working with other superheros.

[All] How do you guys handle the various money scenarios in BTS?

Episode 1: I always steal the money from the shirt vendor, and then later slip it into Joyce's purse, this way she doesn't pawn her engagement ring. Buying weed from Frank only creates more problems for Chloe down the line, and paying him off always seemed redundant to me since regardless, Chloe is still indebted to him by the start of the first game.

Episode 2: The choice with Drew's money is a lot more complicated. I always personally choose to stay with Mikey, and then return the money to Drew. We find out through the Wavelengths DLC in True Colors that Drew canonically dies in the storm if you choose to Sacrifice Arcadia Bay, and I personally am a Bae player, so preventing Mikey from geting injured makes more sense to me. I always choose to return the money to Drew since it's the morally correct choice, plus Damon dies the next day, so it's not like he'll be needing it in hell.

Episode 3: Donating to the fire department is also an option, but I personally never go that route since Drew's Family and Joyce need it a lot more. There's also the option to keep all the money on yourself by the end of the game, but it almost feels like a waste to do that, since we never find out what Chloe ends up doing with it.

Teacher's Social Media being stalked

I'm a high school student, and I just want an opinion on one of my teacher's behaviors. Over the last two years, certain students have gone on facebook/myspace and tracked down this teacher on there. They've screenshotted his posts, printed out pictures to show him, and even gone as far as to make a flag with a picture taken from his facebook. Some kids can be creepy, so this in enough itself isn't the crazy part to me, the part that seems off to me is the fact that my teacher finds it funny and actually encourages the behavior.

He's hung one of the pictures up in his room and even put the flag up on his wall. Some kid even made christmas cards with the teachers picture on it and handed them to a lot of people. If it was just selfies of him or even just random pictures, I'd probably feel less iffy about it, but there's pictures in circulation around the school that feature him shirtless doing certain activities, (such as sun-tanning, excercising or on a motorcycle) another that shows him posing in front of a vulgar hot dog stand, and there's a video of him making vulgar hand signs in a club.

This next part I've heard through the grapevine, so it's possible that it might be untrue, but supposedly some of my friends attempted to follow him on facebook, to which he followed them back. I know there's some type of rule where a teacher isn't allowed to have such direct personal contact with students until the student either graduates or turns 18 (I'm not sure which) so if that is true, he's definitely broken that rule.

How does FBC: Firebreak hold up now?

I am a huge fan of Control and the Remedyverse in general, but I chose to pass when Firebreak dropped, since I'm not super big on the live service genre, plus I'm mainly into the games for the lore, not gameplay, which Firebreak seemed to lack. Looking at it now a few months later, I'm not seeing many people talk about the game. Did I miss out and should I cop it? Or did I make the right choice?
