We talking Benjamin Buttons or time travel?

Thank you for saving me the time.

I unlocked Luke the second day I played and I suck at the game. Yes, it would take years to unlock everything, but “everything” includes a lot of meaningless bullshit like emotes and victory poses. You should be able to get all the heroes at least reasonably quickly.

This is good to hear, at least. I figured after the reduction it would be more manageable. And if I got it I’d be sharing the account with my brother, so that’d mean less individual time for each of us before good unlocks.

I usually don’t care about micro transaction stuff and I think the complaints tend to be silly (like who cares about special helmets and shit?), though this seems to be another step and I can’t say I’m not worried.

And I still play the original Battlefront II from time to time, and it’s still great, but it’s not a mystery why a new version would be appreciated.

That’s really great. Poster game has been fantastic across the board for this.

With TLJ officially a month away, it was time to change things up.

RIP BB-8, the longest I’ve kept an avatar (about 2 years). Some of you have never known me as anything else. To those people I say: get used to it.

What was your avatar before that? I know that I must have seen it, but I can’t remember what it was.

I think the one I had immediately prior was this

It’s a tricky situation and I just think I need to do more research before I make a decision. Like, with the reduction, how long does it take now? Without the upgrades, how manageable is playing multiplayer at a disadvantage? I’m also curious, is there a hero battle game mode? That’s where I logged most of my hero play time anyway. If it takes me forever to get them as an upgrade in a usual match, I could probably live with that, but if it takes me forever to just mess around with them against other heroes, that’s a big problem for me.

I still don’t want to support shady shit like this though. I guess maybe if I want it I wait a bit and get it used? With the last Battlefront, when they shipped out the game missing half of the maps and heroes and such that you needed to buy later, the way to go was obvious - wait a year or so until it’s super cheap to get. This time it’s trickier.

It’s just frustrating when literally every other aspect of the game is pretty great. I can’t remember the last time I bought a video game, but this actually excited me. I love the original Battlefronts, so this hard to resist when they did so much right.

I usually laugh at whiny gamer shit, but this is pretty annoying. I was planning on getting this game but I’m not sure. I don’t mind having to play to unlock stuff, but the amount of time it takes is ridiculous. I have a life, so I can’t really afford to spend all my time just to gain features that are an integral part of the game. And I certainly can’t afford to use actual money to buy the unlocks. I don’t play video games to recreate the real world where rich people have all the advantages to fuck you over, but that’s exactly what it seems like they made this game to be.

I keep forgetting these exist. I’ll have to check one out at some point.

What about “Typing While Watching Speed”?

Ever try Youtube? That sort of thing tends to be popular there.

I bet there’s a forum for that kind of stuff too.

ROTS doesn’t have a single outdoor location shot in the entire movie. It was filmed entirely on a soundstage, which is why the outdoor scenes look incredibly fake.

Oh yeah?

the film uses plenty of Second Unit background plates as a basis for its otherworldly settings

So, yeah.

Some of the most exotic locations just CAN’T be filmed in real places, and can only be chromakeyed in. But that still requires a lot of technical artists and talent. CGI and blue/green screens are not inherently bad things. You should never blame the tool for the shortcomings of the craftsman.

Never did. Doesn’t matter anyway, it’s 110% irrelevant to the topic at hand.

JEDIT: ok, not 100% a Darth… my bad.

Take it to the “Best User Names” thread.

Evidently not.

I prefer “over 20,000.”

Shame how easily this thread was forgotten…

There actually was a CD release of at least ESB that had the original art but it sounded like shit and only had like 10 of the songs.

Yeah I know, but I wouldn’t consider that the original ESB album on CD. It’s essentially a different program. The anthology set was closer.

How very so indeed, considering he dies 35 years before TFA.

Yep, seeing a film in theaters 6 times obviously translates to “I don’t care for it.” Everyone knows that.

I loved The Force Awakens when it first came out and I really wish that I can undo that love. That flick is a tired rehash that gets more and more boring and redundant on repeat viewings whereas Rogue One keeps getting better with repeat viewings. It’s as simple as that.

Sounds reasonable.

How the fuck do you give Modern Love anything less than a perfect score?
