My brain is still as broken as my relationship with my father when he looked me straight in the eyes and told me that yes, Jesus would be ok putting kids in cages.
I'm not trying to give you anxiety, mate. Drunk posting provides adequate context. \
"Turtles have this thing called Turtle Mode" just gave me pause about your experiencing the existence of turtles. \
Couple that with the weird search engine results and no mention of "turtle mode" even in the informative links you provided and I was just a little confused.
I see now this is a c/aww post; you got nothing to be ashamed of or anxious about.
Played a few demos at Next Fest, mostly games I’d been following for a bit. Was most impressed by Jump Ship. It’s in a very solid place getting ready to head into early access. I feel like they’ll use that to mostly fill out content because the bones are fantastic. And that’s not to say it’s lacking content anyway. It is a large demo. And it should be more solo friendly than Firebreak is reported to be.
On that note, I encourage you to temper expectations for Firebreak and utilize a game pass service to play it if you have one vs buy. I’m a Control fan, but also a big coop shooter fan (come play Darktide with me), and Firebreak did not impress when I played the closed tech test. There’s nothing fundamentally wrong with it, but it was pretty bland for the genre and I don’t think there’s supposed to be a lot of lore development for the remedyverse. Solo is also something they are explicitly not balancing the game for. So I’d encourage not buying right away if that’s your plan for it.
I’m not trying to be a dick here, just confused. But is this post indicating that you’re old enough and smart enough to know how to use the fediverse but didn’t know that turtles turtle?
Also, like tisktisk@piefed.social indicated, I get results for anything but the animal when I search “turtle mode”. Graphics, EV modes, and even flipping a quadcopter drone, but nothing about neck mechanics in a shelled amphibian.
Does pop-up headlights mean the old kind that mechanically raise when turned on? I was fully unaware of safety concerns and govt regs against them and just assumed they were too costly and overly complex for manufacturers to keep doing. And I still see them in some sporty models.
Eh, this had more troll potential when I still thought it was an in person event. The first American pope giving his first American soil address would have more power behind it.
Indeed. Ice Pirates, Mac n Me, and Tammy. They all encapsulate slightly different aspects of filmmaking that make me appreciate them.
And I’m not really into ironically liking bad movies, but I adore these.
Mac n Me is legit hilarious to me when viewed with a cynical eye of Raffill making a mockery that McDonald’s gave him money to ripoff ET.
Ice Pirates shows how you make an old sci-fi “epic” on a shoe string budget (Roger corman style).
Tammy shows how you manifest a movie solely around the fact you got access to some interesting thing (the t-Rex).
It’s pure, distilled filmmaking, imo. And I’ll take it any day over the majority of slop we get now.
I absolutely fucking love how in pretty much the entire 3rd act you can tell the whole cast is having fun and barely trying to stay serious even in the takes that made the final cut.
But you want to know the kicker? It’s not even my favorite Stewart Raffill movie. But it is part of his holy trinity for me.
Can we get a date on this? I don’t see skibidi or sus. And I’m most surprised to see the youths embracing finna
