Topic | Matt Damon says phone-obsessed children no longer watch films properly. |
Darmik 08/02/21 5:21:37 PM #42 | Well we do have more than one user here who will post as they're watching a movie so it's not just kids. refmon posted...

Topic | I'm starting to think MJ abused kids |
Darmik 08/02/21 7:23:53 AM #56 | TheoryzC posted... Now think and ask yourself what makes a person do a interview like this that's watched by millions of people? I just read a story the other about pedophiles being specifically chosen to adopt kids in Germany as an experiment. I think a lot of pedos love the idea of hiding in plain sight and acting like their love is innocent. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Playing Halo Infinite with bots made me realize how much I miss them |
Darmik 08/02/21 12:37:06 AM #7 | littlebro07 posted... I destroyed the bots and won literally every game this weekend I only played a handful of games and hadn't even played that Bazaar level yet. When I saw that PVP was open I went nope and played against Spartan bots haha. I'd get dominated PVP considering how much people have played already. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | The Sega Saturn should have been 64-bit and come out in 1996. |
Darmik 08/01/21 11:59:41 PM #54 | I think Sega were screwed in general. Going later would give Playstation no competition at all. Sega were already starting to struggle with relevance in 95. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Playing Halo Infinite with bots made me realize how much I miss them |
Darmik 08/01/21 11:58:28 PM #1 | I played games like Timesplitters 2 with bots quite a lot back in the day. It was a lot of fun. Halo Infinite's bots capture that spirit really well. Sure they don't compare to human opponents but they don't really have to. Dominating a bunch of bots is fun and it's a good way to learn the map and weapons. Also to just vent and feel good heh. As someone who is really rusty with multiplayer games these days it's really appreciated. Hopefully they can be used to make up some fun scenarios in the full game. Something else I remember fondly in Timesplitters 2. Bots combined with split screen is a good time. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Sonic Boom should of been an Xbox Exclusive |
Darmik 08/01/21 10:42:56 PM #2 | Sonic games historically sell better on Nintendo platforms which is they they signed a three game exclusive deal for Sonic on Wii U lol --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Congratulations, mainstream gaming is trash now. |
Darmik 08/01/21 9:26:47 PM #45 | LordYeezus posted... Been trash since patches became a thing. Devs don't put the effort to get it right the first time (the rise of early access) Try living in a PAL territory where most games ran 30% slower because of televisions. Also re-releases that fixed issues with games were always a thing. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | Congratulations, mainstream gaming is trash now. |
Darmik 08/01/21 9:07:48 PM #40 | I seriously have such a massive backlog of games I'd like to play. I dunno how people just think everything sucks. Like I just played and finished Death's Door which came out just over a week ago and it was great. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Halo lore > Mass Effect lore |
Darmik 08/01/21 8:40:59 PM #5 | Mass Effect 3 ruined the lore more than anything Halo did so sure. Before that ME was better though. I'd love a Mass Effect style game in the Halo universe. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Darmik 08/01/21 7:16:37 PM #14 | Lost_All_Senses posted... I don't really understanding sleeping in the same bed either. Even if you missed your childhood cause it was fucked up. Kids didn't want to sleep in the same bed, they did it cause there was nowhere else to sleep in the room. Just have a room with a bunch of beds you rich bitch. Kids usually don't want to cuddle with grown men who aren't their dad by choice. Yes. The door to the room also had an alarm bell. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Darmik 08/01/21 5:53:58 PM #85 | UnfairRepresent posted... Only if you ignore context (fancy that) What about a topic where you're complaining about advent calendars in a supermarket and you use a random Facebook photo from Australia? How did you even find that one? --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | This is what they call food in the UK |
Darmik 08/01/21 5:42:20 PM #70 | I don't really care if you live in the UK or not. But doesn't using stock photos make most of these topics pointless? Most of these topics are about you whining about your time in the UK and you can't even take a photo of the thing that's bunching up your panties? --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | The Dualsense kinda sucks |
Darmik 08/01/21 6:13:14 AM #16 | I'm gonna be honest with you man if you historically disliked PlayStation controllers I have no idea why you bothered buying one for PC when you don't even get to use any of the actual interesting features. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Men would walk into the breastfeeding room at Blizzard and stare. |
Darmik 08/01/21 2:03:54 AM #123 | This topic is pretty eye opening as a married Dad good grief. As for people really caring about the term 'breast feeding room' being used instead of lactation room I'm guessing the only reason they're used a bit interchangeably is because these rooms are also available in public places like shopping malls. It doesn't mean Moms are working full shift with a baby and going in there to breast feed. Good grief guys lol Lokison posted... Pumping doesnt require much clean up so 15-30 seconds. Diaper change? Maybe 2 minutes if it's a huge mess. Play? Not necessary; they're young enough that you can pop a pacifier in their mouth and get back to work. This certainly does not represent how it was with my wife or daughter lol --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Did the Xbox One launch event kill the Kinect? |
Darmik 07/31/21 5:35:53 PM #7 | The lack of anything interesting games for it on the 360 killed it. Also ironically I think the complete lack of controller ended up making it more complicated to use than the Wii since it wasn't always responsive. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | MS Flight Simulator is legit af |
Darmik 07/31/21 5:28:21 PM #16 | Mr_Karate_II posted... Would be cool if they released for the Xbox one instead of just the series X/S. The CPU is just too weak. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] There are assist options to use lol --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

If you're on PC a Steam Key should be there But on Xbox you've got to download the Xbox Insider App. The option for Halo Insider is there. But personally I can't get it past pending once I register. I'm assuming these were meant to be the instructions in Halo Waypoint lol --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | I don't think any crime haunts me as much as the James Bulger murder |
Darmik 07/30/21 12:00:48 AM #1 | I saw a brief glimpse of the story on TV the other night and it all just comes flooding back. Something about that picture of the little boy being lead out of the shops knowing what he is being lead to is just heart breaking. I remember hearing about this case as a little kid too due to how horrific it was and it's a story that just seems to persist. I have a toddler of my own now and it makes me even more sick to my stomach now. They're just the most trusting and vulnerable little things. The whole factor of it being children who did it adds another layer of fucked up. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Halo Infinite first beta invites going out |
Darmik 07/29/21 11:36:35 PM #22 | Halo Waypoint is getting hammered right now. A shame they didn't email the codes. Ah well. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I mean it's Halo. Nothing else really scratches that same itch as Halo for me. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | Will GTA VI have single player? |
Darmik 07/29/21 7:13:43 PM #2 | Yes. They're not going to risk losing 20+ million $70 sales. It just won't get updated after launch or have any new content. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | Activision Blizzard hires union-busting firm in response to employee walkout. |
Darmik 07/29/21 5:27:36 PM #11 | It's actually impressive how bad Activision has handled all of this. I guess that one day walkout potentially means a COD delay so it can't happen. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | "don't tell me how to raise my kids" |
Darmik 07/29/21 1:33:29 AM #19 | LostForest posted... Lemme ask you then. My sister and her husband are raising their kids anti-vaxx and already dropped one child out of school as a result, who's not receiving a real education anymore. All four of them had COVID earlier this year. I never said anything at all that implied all parents are correct. Parents are also given plenty of dumb advice about stuff like vaccines. Often from other parents. My point was that parents constantly get advice from all sources. Everything from how to feed them, how to get them to sleep, how to control their behavior etc. Most people don't know what they're talking about because every kid is different and nobody knows your kid more than you do. Most of it isn't worth going to. It's as I said. When it comes to parenting a shitload of people want you to listen to their opinions. Even if you try your best at being a good parent. Stuff like vaccines should really be common sense anyway. Of course you can criticize anti-vax people. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | How many games you buy off Gamepass? |
Darmik 07/28/21 9:30:06 PM #9 | Most third party games are on there for a temporary basis. Yeah they give a discount if you want to permanently own the games. What Microsoft or developers want out of a specific game probably depends on the game. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | Woman charged with murder for a death that happened 35 years later. |
Darmik 07/28/21 8:32:15 PM #28 | newhorrorguy posted... Gets worse looking in the history of the case. Apparently the conviction is based on flimsy evidence, as it was extremely easy to get falsely charged with shaking a baby at the time. It's possible he fell off the couch and hit his head as well. This case is full of weird details and tough choices. That was her defense McKirchy allegedly told his parents that their son had fallen off a couch, but the baby was blue in the face, his breathing shallow, his hands clenched and his eyes no longer responsive. His parents rushed him to the hospital, where doctors determined he suffered from shaken infant syndrome. I don't think a fall from a couch would have lead to something like that but considering she was a babysitter even putting a 5 month old on a couch is very irresponsible. They're still figuring out how to move at all at that age. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Watch Dogs is pretty underrated |
Darmik 07/28/21 8:29:49 PM #8 | Yeah Legion is definitely better with permadeath on. I can actually remember when some of the operatives died. It's easy enough to replace them. Overall it's a game where it relies on the player to make it more fun. I barely ever used the construction drone. I found it much more fun to use operatives like the Spy. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |

Topic | Watch Dogs is pretty underrated |
Darmik 07/28/21 8:22:19 PM #5 | Yeah Aiden Pearce was lame. It was a fine enough GTA clone though. I think WD2 was the best. I didn't mind Legion but it definitely felt like a game with a really cool concept but didn't really think of a great way to tie it together. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
Topic | Pfizer vaccine second shot at 6 weeks? |
Darmik 07/28/21 8:00:47 PM #8 | Australia is quite low on supply for Pfizer. So extending out the window will allow more people to get their first dose. The UK study is probably just more of a net benefit and gives them a reason to point to that doesn't make them look like they fucked up the rollout. --- Kind Regards, Darmik |
