| GeneralKenobi85 02/17/22 4:42:35 PM #18 | I played a little bit today. Lots of people having performance issues, but surprisingly I'm not encountering anything too bad. I managed to tweak the settings so that the framerate in battle is pretty smooth. The campaign map is definitely more demanding, but it's been a pretty consistent 40 FPS, and that seems manageable so far. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

They're not as bad in other Zelda games. The same can be said for Wizzrobes. Fuck them in Zelda 1.

| GeneralKenobi85 02/16/22 6:16:55 PM #17 | If Chaos Dwarfs were in the game at launch, I think they would have been my immediate choice to play as. I wonder what will come after them though. I like the idea of Dogs of War because mercenaries as a mechanic is something I'd like in this series. They've been trending in that direction with the Ogre Mercs in Warhammer 2 and now the Outpost system in this game. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | The Wii U was a SHITTY console, I say. Is he (me) right? |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/15/22 8:25:18 PM #9 | I liked it and I never thought it made much sense that it failed so badly. Yeah I know calling it the Wii U was a terrible idea. The marketing wasn't good. As far as the console itself though, it has a terrible primary controller. That's the only problem. Like if you compare it to the Switch, other than the Switch being newer and actually getting the handheld part right, it doesn't really do a whole lot more than the Wii U did. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/15/22 6:01:32 PM #14 | Yeah bugs are unfortunately inevitable. I've seen criticism of the main campaign as well. That's why I do think it makes sense for most people to wait for the combined map or wait for a sale or for bugs to be fixed. I just don't feel like waiting. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/15/22 5:11:50 PM #12 | For a while now a sequel to SMRPG seemed like the best way to go for Mario RPG games. Paper Mario has drifted far from what it was. And Mario and Luigi is presumably dead. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

The series absolutely does have far too much DLC. The thing is that almost all of it is high quality. For the majority of people I would just recommend getting the games when they're on sale and buying only the DLCs that interest you. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

I know at least a few of you on here enjoy Total War games. Warhammer 3 won't reach its peak until we get the combined map in a few months, but I'm still excited. Every playable race looks really fun and fleshed out. I'll be starting with Zhao Ming of Cathay first though. Cathay's magic is intriguing, and they've got excellent unit variety. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/14/22 10:43:36 PM #12 | Also for the targets I would say decide what you want to do them with them on a case-by-case basis. Some of the alternate means of dealing with them are much more sadistic and cruel than just killing them. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | Playing through Dishonored for first time |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/14/22 10:34:59 PM #7 | If you're only gonna play it once, killing everything that moves is much more fun. Ideally though you do one playthrough where you're loud and lethal and another one where you're undetected and non-lethal. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/12/22 6:52:32 PM #13 | SSJGrimReaper posted... is that lava gun still terribleThe Ravager? On its own, it's not a good gun. But it does a very nice job of stripping shields, so it still has a place in the game in my opinion. Every other gun is fine for the most part with the exception of the Plasma Pistol. It lost its ability to EMP vehicles and its homing isn't good enough to justify using it for its other purpose of stripping shields. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/11/22 7:01:02 PM #12 | I read Fall of Reach, The Flood, and Ghosts of Onyx. I enjoyed them. Not the greatest pieces of literature ever obviously, but worth the read. The newer books have never really appealed to me though. And I never got around to reading First Strike despite having a copy of it. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | Halo: Infinite's multiplayer is so disappointing. |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/11/22 6:21:38 PM #3 | Yeah it's lame. And actual content is probably still a while away because of all the technical issues the game has. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | The Book of Boba Fett Episode 7 Finale Topic *SPOILERS* |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/09/22 10:44:56 PM #72 | You know there was something I questioned about Boba's motivations in this show. It seemed like he was pissed off that he nearly died in service to Jabba. But shouldn't he be blaming himself for that and not necessarily Jabba? Did he really have any obligation to stay around after delivering Solo to him before ROTJ? He even says to Fennec something along the lines of he doesn't want bounty hunters to get killed after being caught up in the plots of bad employers. But his relationship with Jabba seems like one he brought upon himself. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | The Book of Boba Fett Episode 7 Finale Topic *SPOILERS* |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/09/22 8:31:30 PM #64 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yup this is my take as well. There are a million things you can nitpick about the show. But I'm not going into it looking for things to criticize. It felt very Star Wars. A lot of it is dumb, but it was certainly entertaining. Anyway, I think Cad Bane making an appearance in the Kenobi show is way more likely now. He's got a rivalry with him too, and this way they can continue making use of the live action version. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/07/22 6:11:22 PM #126 | I think recasting him would be a good idea if they ever plan on giving Luke a ton of screentime for something.

| GeneralKenobi85 02/04/22 10:31:18 PM #15 | I've only ever played SOTN, so I can't really say. But Castlevania as a franchise is definitely more interesting to me. And I would rank SOTN above every Metroid game I've played. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| Topic | Book of Boba Fett/Madalorian S2.5 spoilers: Is someone gonna die? Star Wars |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/03/22 8:05:53 PM #6 | I guess if they wanted to pull a surprise move and kill someone off, Fennec or Boba make the most sense. Cad Bane is a villain they could potentially slot in to any series that's set in this era, though I don't know what they actually have planned other than the Ahsoka show. And Krrsantan is a still a new character to most viewers, so it wouldn't have the same impact if they offed him. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | Book of Boba Fett/Madalorian S2.5 spoilers: Is someone gonna die? Star Wars |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/03/22 7:50:17 PM #2 | I don't think they have the balls to kill off any of them. I could see Danny Trejo's character dying. And some of the Mods. And the Mayor's majordomo. And we know a ton of Pyke goons are gonna die. But I doubt anyone else will. And it doesn't really make sense for them to ditch the Naboo starfighter a few episodes after it's made. Grogu has a seat in there already. And I don't think he's going to be doing much bounty hunting next season. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

Knew it was him the instant his silhouette was in the distance and was not at all disappointed.Live action Hondo is inevitable. Could see it in the Kenobi series, could see it in Ahsoka's. Hell, it's always possible he shows up for this show's final episode. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/02/22 12:13:05 PM #39 | pegusus123456 posted... I should maybe watch those animated shows to understand why people get excited lol.I think ideally the Jedi have to find some healthy balance between having attachments but not letting those attachments drive you toward the dark side. Ahsoka seems to be one of the few who have been able to strike that balance. Probably Obi-Wan as well. Grogu is kind of an unknown factor and he's had a pretty unorthodox childhood up until now. Ahsoka probably just doesn't want to take any risks after both the Jedi Order and Anakin let her down. As for Luke, I'll chock it up to him still being very new to the job. I mean we obviously know because of the sequels that Luke does ultimately fail. Anyway, cool to see Cad Bane. I saw someone say he reminded them of the Mouth of Sauron and I definitely got that vibe as well. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | Why were people upset you couldn't dismember every enemy in Fallen Order? |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/01/22 11:13:45 PM #22 | I imagine it's because previous games had it, specifically the Jedi Knight games. Those were the ones with the heaviest focus on lightsaber combat until Fallen Order came out. I was initially peeved about the lack of dismemberment for that reason. I realized not very long after it didn't really matter. Fallen Order seems like a good game regardless. I just never got very far in it. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 02/01/22 6:53:08 PM #5 | The Belichick part is pretty amusing. Texted the wrong Brian. Anyway, if this is true, the thing with the Dolphins owner seems like it'd be a huge deal. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | Why would anyone want to work for Darth Vader? |
| GeneralKenobi85 02/01/22 4:25:05 PM #7 | None of the high-ranking members of the Empire seem particularly appealing to work for because they're almost all comically evil. Maybe Thrawn is the exception? I don't know. I know there are some decent Imperials in Legends, but certainly in canon they're all pretty awful. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| GeneralKenobi85 01/31/22 12:02:49 AM #27 | I don't watch football all that much. It's fun every once in a while, but obviously it would be a huge mistake to give up a genre with as much variety as nature shows/videos/documentaries. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | What was the first thing in gaming to truly wow you? |
| GeneralKenobi85 01/29/22 10:09:37 PM #89 | It's got to be Halo: CE. I'm pretty sure it was the first M rated game I remember playing, but regardless it was vastly different than anything else I'd played at the time. I had mostly been playing Nintendo games up until then. I think the music and presentation of the game played a major part as well. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

| Topic | Just finished Halo Infinite's campaign. Thought it was great. What problems... |
| GeneralKenobi85 01/27/22 10:31:04 PM #5 | Just like the transition from Halo 4 to 5, they didn't really continue off of the prior game's story at all. There's a lot I liked about it, but because they initially screwed up so badly going from 4 to 5, it just comes off as a mess. I thought the reception for it has been overall very positive though. The gameplay is certainly great. No complaints there. As far as multiplayer is concerned, they really shit the bed there. So maybe the complaints you saw were directed more toward that. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
| Topic | What sports team is the biggest choker? |
| GeneralKenobi85 01/27/22 1:21:43 AM #10 | An under the radar choker team is the Oakland A's. They've had a pretty damn good last decade when it comes to regular season play, but they've always made early playoff exits. And then of course there's the Minnesota Twins who are currently on a postseason losing streak of 18 games. Somehow they always roll over and die whenever they face the Yankees in the playoffs. It's fascinating. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |

I don't know shit about this ship, but that little bubble behind the cockpit which I assume is supposed to house a droid might work? The mechanic said she stripped out the droid connector. It will look a little goofy though. The ship in general looks cool, but I got the vibe that Mando lived on the Razor Crest, so him agreeing to swap over to a car instead of a mobile home is a little weird to me.It should be suitable enough for his short term goals at least, which at present is seeing Grogu again and going to Mandalore. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> |
