[QUOTE=Sharker;50081797]Yoga pants are gross.[/QUOTE] But you get to know exactly what a girls ass is like without having to perv on them by looking up their skirt. What's gross about that?
if yoga pants ever go out of style I'm dedicating all my efforts to bringing that shit back
The Last American Virgin is the greatest comedy for growing teenagers/young adults and you all should totally watch it. No repercussions what so-ever.
[QUOTE=Fapplejack;50083966]But you get to know exactly what a girls ass is like without having to perv on them by looking up their skirt. What's gross about that?[/QUOTE] I don't want people shoving their sweaty ass in my face all the time. Those pants are like 2cm thick. Also doesn't leave much to the imagination. I'll take girls in jeans over yoga pants any day.
Yoga pants are the best to look at and the best to wear. [I]They don't even feel like they're there[/I]
[QUOTE=Sharker;50084314]Those pants are like 2cm thick.[/QUOTE] 2cm is almost an inch. Since when are yoga pants and snowpants the same thing?
[QUOTE=Sharker;50084314]I don't want people shoving their sweaty ass in my face all the time.[/QUOTE] Bro how is that the yoga pants's fault? You gotta assert yourself if you don't want people butt-bumping your face.
An antagonist that's evil for the sake of being evil is a terrible antagonist
[QUOTE=RichyZ;50085322]I think theres an exception to be made when they are evil because they just love it. Palpatine, for example[/QUOTE] while I wouldn't call them terrible characters, I still don't think they're very interesting or have much going for them. Like, they're fun to watch but, in my opinion, not that fun or satisfying to discuss or talk about because of how little there is to talk about.
[QUOTE=Blazedol;50085274]An antagonist that's evil for the sake of being evil is a terrible antagonist[/QUOTE] Antagonists that are evil for evil's sake can be fun. See black spiral dancers. If we take out the over the top mutilations and rapes and outright miscellaneous psychopathy from a bunch of fellas with no fear of humans and a will to watch the world burn, which they enjoy... Sometimes they just do really petty stuff. Ensuring that fast food products are literally spiritually damaging as well as physically and socially damaging Making sure that new houses are as poorly built and have as much asbestos in them as possible Like advancing the cause of super skinny models so that women have unhealthy body weight issues. Or funding the Republican party so we can all suffer. Between them, A corperation called pentex, and the vampires, they're responsible for propagating a lot of evil But they're fun. Their minds have been shattered by a dark ritual they do to eachother. Most are deformed. They'd literally be cartoon villains if cartoon villains didn't have their own goals and were a bit more over the top. But Evil for the sake of Evil isn't bad if you do it right.
[QUOTE=NikoChekhov;50084851]Bro how is that the yoga pants's fault? You gotta assert yourself if you don't want people butt-bumping your face.[/QUOTE] It's more of the idea of people wearing practically nothing around me. It's obnoxious. Kind of like if I wore extremely tight pants to accentuate a crotch bulge.
If you had appreciable legs, arse and crotch then by all means.
You all remember the thread is called[B] unpopular opinions[/B] for a reason.

yoga pants and leggings are hella comfortable sry
Crowdfunding, in most cases, is idiotic. You're essentially throwing money at promises without any of the real benefits investors have. For most people it's best to just not bother
Still gotta say I thought Force Awakens was mixed between painfully generic and too many ham-fisted throwbacks. The writing was actually cringe-worthy. I mean the character dynamics were decent enough, but individually they were pretty mediocre. I really don't understand the praise it gets, and I'm not trying to throw that out there as a "contrarian" or edgelord, I'm legit confused. Not saying it was utter shovel garbage either, mind you. It was a fun romp, just a little bland and unimaginative. Maybe somewhere between a 5 to 7 outta 10.
i think most people who generally aren't star wars fans could agree on a 6 or 7 out of 10 i found it to be really fun, nothing groundbreaking but very well done, so i gave it a 7 even if the writing wasnt great
[QUOTE=Bathtub;50089409]i think most people who generally aren't star wars fans could agree on a 6 or 7 out of 10[/QUOTE] I see a lot of the opposite though. People who've never seen Star Wars or maybe watched one of the movies aired on TV burst out with rave reviews and "omg the hottest new thing, revitalized the franchise, so much fun" Meanwhile, the older groups I know who saw far too much Star Wars back in the day and/or could be called fans (but not to an absurd level) mostly came out somewhere between slightly-above-neutral to dissatisfied. It wasn't like it shat on their bed, but it wasn't what they were hoping it would be. I feel like if they banked less on stupid nostalgia factor and weakly rehashing A New Hope, and instead fleshed our new characters more (on both sides) with a more interesting threat than [I][B]duedly deathstar 2.0[/B][/I] (and [I][B]teen angst Vader[/B][/I]), it might have been a less divisive hit. [QUOTE=bdd458;50089701]Kylo Ren is the 2nd best villian in the series, right behind Tarkin. He has actual development in the first movie in his arc.[/QUOTE] I put the parathensis to denote it was a minor point. v:v:v I actually liked the concept behind Kylo, but it could've been handled better. All I remember was him throwing tantrums over dumb stuff, acting immature, and needlessly having his reveal far too early into the movie. The idea of a villain being an uncontrollable shitlord is very welcome next to "calm collective badass #20." Maybe that was in some part to the actor or the script. The constant throwbacks kept drawing me out of the movie though. It was like the absolutely needless Leonard Nimoy cameo in the first of the "new" Star Treks. Those just seem to elect an "ugh" from me rather than the "omg it's that thing!!!!" that people in the theater keep doing.
Kylo Ren is the 2nd best villian in the series, right behind Tarkin. He has actual development in the first movie in his arc. Vader doesn't get any real development until the end of V. And that's another thing - Luke, Leia, Han, and the rest of them had 3 movies to develop over and people keep trying to compare characters who have had the first movie of the trilogy to characters who had an entire trilogy already. The only one I could agree on is with Poe, and that's in part because they had to write him back into the script - he was supposed to die on Jakku. and on Kylo He's the opposite of the man he worships, it's absolutely fantastic and the best way they could have written him. He lacks control, experience, wisdom, and just lashes out at the slightest provocation. Vader wasn't random with his anger, he controlled it and used it to his advantage. Kylo Ren for 2nd Best villain (Tarkin is still bae) i just wish that they only disabled Starkiller Base, not have it be completely destroyed - that way it could have been a threat the entire trilogy. And I didn't mind all the callbacks (especially Maz's Castle scene, that was great all those new designs <3), a few were a bit much (finn throwing the sensor luke trained with, the board game, the garbage compactor line). but honestly, it's on par with ANH for me.
[QUOTE=bdd458;50089701]i just wish that they only disabled Starkiller Base, not have it be completely destroyed - that way it could have been a threat the entire trilogy. [/QUOTE] Can't agree there, I was so sick of them bringing another Deathstar back into things, having it stick around for 2 more movies would have sucked.
Looking at the toxicity of Killing Floor 2's forums, I can't help but think that Valve needs to have more heavy-handed warnings regarding the point of Early Access.
[QUOTE=flashn00b;50092092]Looking at the toxicity of Killing Floor 2's forums, I can't help but think that Valve needs to have more heavy-handed warnings regarding the point of Early Access.[/QUOTE] Killing Floor 2 deserves the shit it gets, though. It being in early access doesn't negate it's questionable development.
[QUOTE=Blazedol;50092120]Killing Floor 2 deserves the shit it gets, though.

It'd have just been hilarious to be honest

I mean, TFA was almost exactly what I thought it would be so I wasn't disappointed or surprised.
[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;50094231]A little off topic, but this is pretty much how I feel about Fallout 4.[/QUOTE] I couldn't get into Fallout 4 at all. I was expecting more sidequests after being spoiled by New Vegas and mods (my fault.) I was more importantly, hoping Bethesda would have learned how to avoid bad storytelling after 3. Skyrim was a step in both directions, unfortunately. We were back to an "anybody" hero and a story that focused on him/her - but the build up is over in about an hour. [I]BAM,[/I] you're the ~Dragonborn~ there's a threat of dergs or something, get around to it plz. Oblivion and Morrowind both had a nice, slower simmer to them. Oblivion just made the mistake of making you an errand boy rather than a legend in the MQ (Shivering Isles really made up for it with a fun, refreshing DLC though.) But man, Fallout 4. Shot in the [del]foot[/del] head there. It was a cool introduction scene, but forcing you into a family man/woman scenario and then trying to force you to care about them, on top of the forced voice - bad moves all around for the typical games Bethesda makes. There is almost [B]no[/B] room for self-inserting anything here. You are the family man going after Shaun, the end. [sp]The whole MQ felt just a little eh to me, but that was mostly due to the Shaun-centric focus and the complete lack of anyone giving a shit about Synths outside dialogue and a single random encounter.[/sp] Fallout 4 was a massive step in the right direction for adding new features and making combat more interesting, which is a real shame that the balance was bad, they did barely anything to make gun/armor crafting interesting, townbuilding was mostly static and boring, and that the hammy ~procedurally generated~ quest stuff was still there. Big world, but also a shallow one that quickly gets tiresome. Gamebryo as an engine needs to be in a shallow grave already. It's clearly not capable of remaining competitive next to other engines anymore. Sure, it does open world cells and spawning tidy enough, but The Witcher 3 just shat all over its' highlights by providing an open world of similar/better caliber out of nowhere. Bethesda also refuses to get in touch with a sense of scale since Gamebryo cannot handle too many background NPCs in a cell, so we've been left with [I]da capital[/I] lore-told cities that have about 20-50 people milling around idly. And mind you, I hate out of love. Because of untapped potential, etc, etc. I'm letting Fallout 4 collect dust until the first ~~~~Season Pass (fuck those)~~~~~ is over, the CDK comes out in force, and there's a host of mods to fix all the issues Bethesda was too lazy to address. Or that suit my tastes. I know it's less unpopular and more 50/50 - but Morrowind had the best writing (concepts)/pacing hands down and it's a shame they likely won't return that because people don't have the patience to invest time in a fucking story before it gets good anymore. Long, lore-building introductions are my favorite things in games (especially when they're skippable to an extent). Bethesda's always had those, but so does Half-Life and so did Doom 3.
I completely lost interest in playing and finishing Fallout 4 as soon as I was introduced to the whole basebuilding shit and just how not fun it was to play. I probably should give it another chance but its such chore to play.
