The third virus was already in Skull Face's hands but it's missing once Venon opens it again. How was Huey supposed to get it? He was on the chopper.

"But we are not responsible to judge an enemy." ~Venom on sparing Huey, days after he torture-murdered a physically incapacitated Skull Face

The mutated version that fucks up mother base isn't one of Skull Face's. At that point their solution was to make it so that the parasites couldn't reproduce. Huey's radiation "testing" made it mutate and reactivate along with the wolbachia and boom, you've got a new strain immune to what they were doing before. The parasite gained the ability to reproduce asexually. Venom proceeds to kill all the carriers as there was no treatment for them at that point.

The three vials skull face had were

1. Destroyed when he was killed

2. Inside Quiet.

3. Held by Eli. This is a bit of a plot hole and clearly a victim of how the end of the game turned out.

Huey did it tinkering with the virus using radiation, and intended to sell it to Cipher.

MGSV has a shitton of interesting story stuff and it's easy to follow, all you have to do is listen to tapes. Which you can do at any time during gameplay instead of quietly sitting in place watching 2 portraits lip flap at each other for 15 minutes at a time like most of the series. It's amazing how as soon as the story isn't told in a way that ties you to a chair and forces you to absorb it clockwork orange style, people think it's unfollowable or nonexistent

I think Hitman games are largely more about exploring and familiarising yourself with as much of a level as you can without raising suspicion, and then, ideally, using what you've learned, finding a way to further explore more/all of it, and hopefully in this process you'll have a firm enough grasp to start making bigger moves.

That said, while it's been a very long time since I played Blood Money, I do recall the stage you're on being pretty difficult and claustrophobic.

This is correct. but I feel there is indeed also a good amount of "Oh shit I fucked up and now guys are shooting at me involved." And honestly, I personally find moments like that maybe a little more fun to pull off than accomplishing a silent kill sometimes. Seeing how well you can actually mitigate a fuckup is actually a pretty fun game in and of itself

Witcher 3 is the perfect balance between open world and utterly engrossing story. I can't think of a single game that does it better. The reward for exploring isn't finding a dumb cave with a level 5 sword in it generally, though if you want to you can absolutely play that way. The bigger reward are stumbling into beautifully written sidequests that have just as much, if not more, effort put into them than the main story

I honestly think the Scarface game is a hidden gem. It was a GTA clone, but it did a -ton- of shit to differentiate itself and I think it turned out to be surprisingly fun more often than not.

Plus the game legitimately has a dedicated button that does nothing but make Tony Montana curse. How can you not love that?

idk but i definitely agree that Malecifent was badass

Nothing makes me more mad about the live-action movie than her not being a dragon. Her being a dragon is what everyone wanted to see, and we were robbed of it.

Also, why does every villain have to now be actually some sort of anti-hero. Can we not just have cold, cruel villains anymore? A person with the name Maleficent deserves to be the evilest of them all, she doesn't need us to sympathize with her. Make her someone we respect and fear.

Even on the internet, I regularly see "villains are only good if they're sympathetic or you can relate to them for some reason." I hate it so much

If you're going to unironically argue that women get paid '77 cents on the dollar' for the same work, you are a feminist extremist.

If you legitimately argue that you only lost the election because of sexism, you are a feminist extremist.

One of those is not a radical feminist talking point, and the other isn't a feminist talking point at all.

Hillary Clinton is not anywhere near as progressive as the right would love her to be, on much of -any- subject. But that's a go-to attack and always has been, in the same way perennial centrist Barrack Obama was declared a socialist in political attacks.In fact, a common outrage om the left was that she was not anywhere near as progressive as Bernie (who had his own problems on the feminist angle of things).

Generally when you hear someone say "that's poor customer service," you can safely discard their opinion. Generally that's a coded phrase for "WHY WONT YOU LET ME DO ANYTHING I WANT????," and nothing short of specifically that is good service in their eyes

It's an understandable mistake to make if, again, you get most of your information about the subject from certain portions of the internet. But in the end, people on the internet who think feminism is this big school of universal thought are just wrong and don't know a ton about the subject.

Well, I guess, if the last Democrat Presidential candidate wasn't one of them, you might have a point.

However, feminist extremism is mainstream now - the female dev in question is being defended by multiple press outlets, some of whom are literally lying about what happened to make her not look shitty.

Hillary Clinton is not an feminist extremist. She was both a political and social moderate who would occasionally pay lip service to mild feminist talking points but she was lacking on even basic things like abortion rights.

I am specifically talking about modern, first-world feminism

Again, this is such an incredibly diverse group of people that "first world feminism" doesn't actually mean... Well, anything, really. There are an incredibly lengthy arrany of feminist schools of thought in the which, many of which contradict and differ in various ways. You might as well say "I like music," it has roughly the same amount of overreach to it.

You're talking about third wave radical feminism, specifically of the tumblr variety. There are so many schools of thought that differ and the OP's example is a specific type of crazy that most people don't approach. Gamergate, unfortunately, doesn't really have that benefit. That is a very specific, short-lived banner and while I certainly don't think that everyone that was part of it was a wretched bigot, it never actually developed any sort of nuance. Throughout the entire thing I was hoping a less tainted equivalent would split and emerge, but Gamergate was incredibly stubborn about dissenters within itself and as a result became more and more insular and focused on all the wrong things.

Unfortunately, the crazy tumblr people are the ones that grab the most attention, since they're so much louder than the normal people.

I don't believe you.

Then I guess I don't really care to discuss it with you. You are operating on preconceived notions gathered from your time looking at radfems on ghazi or gamefaqs to make a judgement call on a movement that is multiple times older than you, consisting of millions of people around the world. That is shortsighted to a rather frightening degree

Comparing the depths of different versions and standpoints of feminism and gamergate is like comparing a puddle to a lake.

Gamergate was literally garbage and anyone with sense should have started some variety of new movement as soon as racists and sexists started playing into it.

Bad news for people who want to keep calling themselves feminists then.

This is an incredibly poor comparison because reasonable and moderate feminists easily outnumber crazy tumblr people, and the only reason most people don't think it does is because they get their information from sources specifically designed to make people outraged. Feminism is way, way bigger than the nutty stuff which is by and large confined to the internet, and has been around so much longer that it would be hard for them to not have done what Gamergate should have done. You've got liberal feminism, radical feminism, marxist feminism, seperatist feminism, eco-feminism, etc to compartmentalize what people believe and separate it from what you don't

Whereas Gamergate was around for a handful of years in a handful of spaces, and just kept chugging along downhill with the only compartmentalization being if you were willing to debase yourself and continue to be part of that or split off and make your own feelings known.

Gamergate was literally garbage and anyone with sense should have started some variety of new movement as soon as racists and sexists started playing into it. I firmly believe it was created with good intentions, but those good intentions were a blink and you miss it moment and it almost immediately stopped being something good and immediately became, by and large, a movement for idiots who wanted to get upset about ess jay dubyews.

No amount of people writing explanatory diatribes on twitter or bad videos on youtube to the contrary will convince me otherwise, because I browsed KIA as well as 4chan and 8chan at the time and saw that getting upset about women with funny haircolors and transexuals and gays and whatever else almost always dominated discussion. Similarly the people I talked to online that were part of it started drooling entry level right wing talking points and shitting up any board they were a part of about it. I've seen it all, and you can puff up and tell me I was hallucinating or whatever, but during its most visible and vocal phase gamergate was 20% people actually concerned about ethical journalism and 80% people absolutely, cartoonishly horrified about people with different politics than them making things while virulently defending the right of people to make games with politics they agreed with.

At the same time though, they were largely bigots getting upset ineffectually at a bunch of stuff and accomplishing nothing, so seeing actual SJWS use them as as big a boogeyman as gamergate holds SJWS to is pretty hilarious. People stroking themselves to totalbiscuit dying will never not reveal how weird and petty and narrow-minded they are. If they had any sense they would just let it die, as it's basically gone at this point anyway for all intents and purposes. But every time they go "hey remember the group of crazy screaming people from like 3 years ago" it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy where they are mercilessly triggered to death from all sides.

Why is this your line in the sand? No judgement, I'm honestly curious.

Its purely selfish, Im a natuaralized citizen myself and so are my parents. I doubt this will affect me because my family did everything legitimately by the book, but you never know.

I can't take conservatives seriously. They always contradict. If you and your parents were born in America you'd be cool with this task force Trump is trying to start. "I'll stand by my party's values as long as it doesn't affect me".

I mean, if Im being serious, I dont believe in borders. Conservative Trump supporter is just my online persona.
