Hey, welcome back!

Don't know enough to care tbh

No way 1 season even comes close.

I am saying it's not as far fetched as you are claiming. The writers are still trying to fix the mostly bland as fuck character development from thor and dark world. Ragnorak did a lot, sure, but be honest here: Where do you go with a godlike powerhouse after all the major villains that could threaten him are gone? They chose the directionless broken man direction. Sure, you can criticize it, but they at least made it believable. No one lost more than Thor during the snap. Period. So yeah, he took it the hardest. For a guy who spent most of his 1000+ year life stuck in the spoiled prince bubble he had no experience with loss until recently. Yeah, I can say cap has more life experience. It's not about age but what you actually experience and Cap fought in one of the world's bloodiest wars and before that he was a bullied sickly kid whose family had already died. All he had was Bucky whom he "lost" during the war. He knew more than anyone else shown what its like to lose everything over night. So yeah, he dealt with it better than everyone else.

I am looking at the timeline for the movie and I was right. Dark world was right before winter soldier where explicitly stated he was busy saving other worlds after the fallout of dark world, he showed again during Ultron where he was just finishing up cleaning up that mess when he finds out about ragnorak and goes out to stop that, missing everything after until ragnorak where they show him finally finishing THAT up, and we know where it goes from there.

None of which were published by EA.

I feel ya on that. I listen to it while I am work after everyone else is gone. Takes a few days to finish an ep. Good shit though.

They repeatedly showed cap struggling to deal with his lost time: The book of movies/books and other things that were created during his time, his lack of ability to keep up with modern references, and his inability to move on from peggy. He isn't perfect in the movies and I would argue that even though he got the sterotypical happy ending by being with peggy that it was his own inability to feel at home in the modern era that cemented his decision to do so. Just cause someone remains functional and clear headed most of the time it doesn't mean they have it all handled. Cap was just more experienced in dealing with it than Thor. Speaking of, if I recall correctly, chronologically speaking, it was right after the dark world events that Thor began his universe wide mission to prevent ragnorak. He showed up for Ultron, but immediately went back to it until the events of Ragnorak that led straight into infinity war. Which means, if I am remembering it correctly, he had basically 0 down time, relatively speaking, from losing his mom, thinking he lost his brother, to reconnecting with his brother, losing his father, then most of his people, his world, to his brother actually dying, and failing to stop Thanos. Please correct me if I am wrong, but if I am not then explain to me where he the time to process anything when going from one catastrophe to another. The man has had it rough, no doubt, but he also wasn't given time to deal with it. Having one or 2 moments of crying and a few inspiring speeches don't magically fix grief and he has a fuck ton of grief. Oh and Thor was always kind of a dick, but never maliciously so. He has pushed everyone's buttons from time to time, he is a bit of a troll.

With the handsome collection hitting up ps+ we should all do a run through on it.

I seriously doubt they can save it at this point. Most people I talk to have all basically forgotten it existed at this point. Hell, even I was like "oh yeah, that's a thing" when I saw this topic had a new post.

You should watch the LA by Night show on Geek and Sundry. The game is run by one of the White Wolf game designers and the characters are played by experienced voice actors. X is an occasional guest character and the guy would plays him (Xander) does the absolute Greatest Malk performance I have ever seen.

Thor doesn't and hasn't needed "redemption" he needed and got emotional growth. Yes, a whole bunch of shit has happened to him, but he has never really dealt with any of it until now. There was always a fight to go to, a world to save, or some other incident that kept him busy. Post snap was the first time he was forced to stop and reflect on everything, and having to deal with it all at once while not knowing HOW left him a broken man. That talk with his mom helped him organize it all to the point that he was able to realize he just isn't ready to lead his people until he is truly at peace with himself so he left someone he knows is capable in the spot while he does just that. He failed tp contribute to the final fight effectively because he spent 5 years on a couch wasted 24/7. No one is gonna be in top shape after that, asgardian or not and it showed. He was sloppy and uncoordinated like someone in his position should. His final scene with Quill showed a bit of the old him hinting that, while not 100%, he is getting back on his feet now.

Saw it today, cried in the theater during the funeral, cheered when cap took up Mjolnir. Wild ride, loved it all. My thoughts on the Thor arc: He spent 3 movies losing, but only one actually coming to terms with the fact that you can fail and keep going. That was the whole point of his Endgame arc, he finally accepted that he has failed, and will probably fail again, but that doesn't mean it's the end. He NEVER failed until Dark World events. He never learned how to process failure. So Endgame was the single largest step for him as a character. As for the Cap comparisons. Just stop. Steve lived a life of constant failure, rejection, and loss before he was transformed. He learned how to deal with and process it all a long time before he even entered the super soldier program. So flipping hos arc with Thor would be a MASSIVE breach of character for him. There is a reason his favorite saying is "I can do this all day" As for the Hulk thing. Yeah, I wanted to see him go ham the whole time. The thing is, by basically merging himself with the Hulk Bruce cut his power significantly. Thats probably why his arm hasnt healed yet and why he didn't bring the usually oomph to the final fight. Without the savage rage the Hulk is just a big green guy who happens to be stronger than most people instead of a force of nature. I think this will be a big plot point in the future, and I really wanna see where it goes.

I was bored at work tonight and I remembered us being super into an anime years ago about a kid with a cursed eye. A quick google later: D. Grayman. Who remembers that? We were all super hyped about it then poof, nothing.

video or lies

I stand with Anelle and I think we have established that I am the MOST stubborn of us all.

100% watch em back to back though, trust me.

I tested this out. 100% can confirm that both cross play and universal progress works. I played a bunch on PC last night, logged into the ps4 version today and had everything I got from PC. Also this game is fun As fuck. Launch week server issues are a thing though. Don't think they were expecting this much of an increase of players from beta to release

As someone who got a taste of vanilla (had to go through it to get to TBC, where I started) I knew it was gonna be like this. At the time it was all well and fine, but technology marched ever forward making it possible to add all the features wow has now. People these don't even remember what classic was really like anymore, rose tinted goggles blind them to the truth.

Wow Classic Beta testers are reporting bugs that are actually features I knew this was gonna happen. Peeps forgot just how fucking turrible classic actually was to the point that they are reporting the game mechanics as bugs because they are just that awful.

Xur isnt lore, and they want missions to be completed by the most amount of players and despite your views on it (no judgements here btw) pvp is pretty much the only content consistently played by the majority of the d2 playerbase.

Cause pvp is the only content that doesn't suck ass?
