Megadeth sucks

Symphony of destruction has some good songs on it, but they're largely a totally unmemorable group
Same with Metallica. Their music just turns to white noise, I don't think I remember any specific metallica songs, more just the one sound they have for everything they make
Anti Social Social Club is the dumbest streetwear brand I've ever seen
They just print their logo onto really low quality garments and sell it for enormous prices. It's like Supreme and Bape but way worse
coffee is good but it's overrated
the amount of hipsters in my surroundings are annoying when they go crazy about coffee, the smell of coffee, the instagram photos of coffee
Star Trek has never been as deep and philosophical as its hardcore fans would like to believe
(I still love the whole franchise to bits though)
People who post "in other news water is wet' or "this just in the sky is blue" to news threads should be banned

And posts being "fuck you" etc, they don't really add anything for meaningful discussion.

I don't know how people drink coffee without milk in it
I'll do it every now and then if I run out of milk... but as for temperature it is always either too hot and burns your mouth, or too cold that it just doesn't feel right. There seems to be no middle ground. As for the taste, it's just way too greasy. I've never had a black coffee and afterwards thought 'damn that was a good coffee'. Whereas when I have coffee with milk, I get that feeling quite a lot. Even with freeze-dried, instant coffee.
[QUOTE=The golden;50822319]As the owner of several mechanical keyboards: I think they are stupid and a waste of money.
The first two of mine broke. Problems include failing lighting (I like the RGB lights) and the actual stems snapping off the Cherry switches despite the fact I don't even game on my keyboard (I have a gamepad) and key caps losing their grip and just falling off constantly.
Issues I've had with my membrane keyboards? I had one key start to feel a little strange after like 4 years of constant use. It was a scissor-action keyboard too. Worked completely fine otherwise. All my others still work and are tucked away.
Yeah the build quality of a mechanic keyboard itself is better - like the metal baseplate and the braided cables etc etc. But you're still relying on the actual switches which seem like cheap shit plastic. I've had them break multiple times with multiple boards from different brands.
As for the click sound: I hate it. It's loud and obnoxious and can even be heard through headphones with music playing. It gets SERIOUSLY old after a very short amount of time. On top of that the keys have very long throws which people say makes for better typing but in my opinion it just makes your fingers feel fatigued faster because the travel is so huge. Unless you have clicky switches then mechanical keys do actually feel very mushy and floaty too.
Non-mechanical keyboards now come with RGB lightning so the only reason I'm using the mechanical I have now is because I paid like $140 for it (as mechanicals are always fucking stupid expensive).

I use a 7 dollar insignia keyboard I got at staples. Never had any problems with it, use it for gaming and everything. I had 3 previous $100+ mechanical keyboards that all broke, even though I treated them like my own offspring.

I used to have a nice clicky gaming keyboard too, and it broke like it was made of paper mache. I've been using a generic Dell keyboard I got from good will for two dollars for about two years now and it's still working perfectly.

What kind of coffee are you drinking? Espresso, filter, or French press?
Apple makes the worst peripherals in the world

Well the PSTV is more or less a Vita emulator.

The love train was super short lived for Undertale and within a week or 2 posting any skeleton spaghetti meme outside of the Undertale thread would instantly get you flooded with dumbs.
Jojo has lost its charm months ago and it's still being posted on lmaopics regularly.
I haven't heard much about jojo or undertale for months. Maybe stop reading shit threads like lmao pics.

I think he's talking about the ones that you use with an iMac and not the macbook keyboards. I've heard tons of praise for the macbook keyboards and from having used them every once in awhile, I feel like they're pretty good too.

Apple's keyboards are probably my favorite non-mechanical keyboards...
And for a really unpopular opinion, I like the Magic Mouse

I wish people in LMAO Pics would stop posting variations of the exact same joke. It's like listening to an 8 year old continuously tell everyone a joke he just heard that he thought was funny. It wears of after the second or third time.
I don't like the Source Filmmaker animation style of having seemingly every body part moving at all times.

Filthy Frank is overrated as fuck. Yeah, his stuff can be funny sometimes but it seems like every 15 year old on the internet is mimicking his personality and quoting him all the time. It gets old very fast when you hear the same phrase Filthy Frank said three years ago for the millionth time.

It's ironic when a lot of his fanbase is the kind of people he's usually making fun of or parodying
I think what Arena FPS games need more than anything is more innovation in gameplay than anything else. Nowadays, typically most Arena FPS games that come out anymore usually end up being too much like their predecessors, namely Quake and UT, without even changing the formula of the gameplay up much at all.
If someone attempted to come up with a unique concept for an AFPS game's gameplay without it being too similar to Quake and UT (some similarities should be fine though) there'd be more potential for a bigger playerbase. I also feel as if Marketing is another part of what hurts the chances of alot of AFPS games today.
Age of Empires 3 with both expansions is the best in the series.

doesn't overwatch kind of fit that description?

AoE3 was tragically underrated. IMO it was the pinnacle of classic strategy design and there hasn't been a better RTS since. The fact that people still idolize AoE2 instead of it blows my mind.
[QUOTE=Sector 7;50829937]doesn't overwatch kind of fit that description?[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say so entirely. It's a very character oriented game with characters that have strict loadouts, and when I'm talking about Arena FPS's im talking about shooters where you can pick up weaponry and equipment on the field and the characters are more or less an aesthetic choice. There is some clear inspiration in the game though.

I think the three chief reasons why are the lack of traditional AoE gameplay elements, the fact that the campaign focused around a Satanic cult and the fountain of youth rather than historical events, and that said campaign was [I]very[/I] glitchy for a few months. If, in the first level, you put the Ottoman bombard into the fort the wrong way, you'd glitch out the level and have to fight an endless horde of Turks.
I still think it's leagues ahead of the other two, though. Nothing is quite like skipping industrialism to go to the revolutionary era and overwhelming your nearly victorious opponent with a surprise attack.
