Time to take a crack at this cause it slaps! Hope it ain’t inaccurate Alyx: …uhhh, Russel? Russel: yea alyx? Alyx: *touching the wings* do the… do the syringes or spores around here have any hallucinatory effects? Russel: …no? They do have minor mutagenic effects but if you have a mask then there’s nothing to worry about! …you DID bring a mask, right? …right Alyx? Alyx: no i did not and there are uhh-… there are wings! Russel: there are WHAT!? Alyx: WINGS! Russel: oh no, your father is going to kill me, uhh where are they coming from? Alyx: there uhh-… there coming from my back!? They are kind of growing by the second here Russel: Do they hurt?! Alyx: n-no??? They feel weird but not painful weird??? Just-… they shouldn’t be there??? Russel: i’ll… im going to try to get a vort on the line

Traveling through the quarantine zone Alyx discovers she's growing wings.

I personally say this theory markers a lot of sense and is REALLY damn interesting!

SPEC OPS SPOILERS FOLLOW

Actually one of the more interesting theories i’ve heard about Spec Ops The Line is just that cause y’know there’s the really popular like Jacob’s Ladder purgatory theory like he died in the helicopter crash and he has to constantly relive this but what i really like is another theory that says okay so even before the White Phosphorus incident, Walker is clearly traumatized by SOMETHING that happened in Kabul that he apparently refuses to talk about, but ended with Konrad dragging him half-dead to an evac chopper so he has this hero worship thing going on. So most people just chalk his weird hallucinations like the tree that seems to be alive but when you turn back it’s dead (which is foreshadowing to Konrad’s fate, on a related note his penthouse seems to be full of lush greenery and aquarium shit but if you kill yourself it’s seen in its “real state” to be in a decrepit state of disrepair) and that one like Cirque Du Soleil style giant banner that the first time you see it it looks like a gigantic picture of Konrad’s face most people chalk that up to PTSD

BUT all of Dubai seems weird and dream-like, there are a bunch of dolly zooms when you’re looking out over vistas, and no matter how far down you go, you always somehow end up suddenly back at the top of the city, still going down. Most of the time people just chalk this up to the rule of symbolism but what iiiff and i know how cheap this sounds i know everyone hates the IT WAS AAALL JUST A DREEAAAMMM thing but in this context it makes sense that it’s some recurring PTSD nightmare like he keeps having this macho fantasy of going in guns blazing and saving John Konrad like he saved him and being the hero but it all starts unraveling under the horror and guilt of what war is really like and the continuity and level design in the game is kinda disjointed and weird and Walker survives shit nobody should be able to survive like at least twice i can think of off the top of my head dude falls out of a god damned skyscraper ffs and there’s just boxes of explodium lying around everywhere the whole thing has a surreal, dream-like quality

Sooooo what if this whole thing is a character study and look into Walker’s psyche and it’s like Walker’s recurring hero fantasy we’re playing that over the course of the dream disintegrates and unravels into a horrific nightmare shit like that happens with PTSD i should know and the loading screens are his own internal thoughts plus “Wait….this isn’t right….no I mean we’ve done this before” that could indicate one of those moments of lucidity you get sometimes like he realizes this is a dream he’s had before oh yeah also there’s Lugo and the locals speaking in Farsi, which isn’t really spoken in Dubai, and is much more common innnnnn badadada da daaaa you GUESSED IT Afghanistan and the architecture i mean even by Dubai standards seems surreal and the sheer strength of the sandstorm to bury an entire city like that and no matter how far down you get you just keep going down and down and down idk

I mean also if you load up the Epilogue, the loading screen one of the messages and it only plays during the Epilogue no other levels is just “It’s time for you to wake up.” Which is idk pretty blatant Anyway this isn’t to say i dislike the other theories i like the this is all really happening Walker’s just losing his mind and the “We’ve done this before!” is just a cheeky 4th-wall break in the manner of the loading screens theory, i like the this is a Jacob’s Ladder purgatory-type situation theory, but this is a theory i just read and i really think i like it most of all

Seriously, this art hits harder than a .50 BMG to the cranium! Keep going CC!

i honestly feel bad for ironwood

I feel bad for him, the guy fucking broke from what I’m aware. Nothing can justify what he did but i just feel bad for the guy who tried to save what he cared about even when bonkers of his rockers and then accidentally destroyed everything, i wish someone could have grabbed him and helped bring him back from the brink before he hit the point where he was completely broken, then again maybe i just really like early ironwood.

“  U. S. Coast Guard Barque EAGLE  “

This is just perfection, imagine being a police officer on your daily shift, you get called down into the subway to deal with a rowdy drunk then suddenly the ground starts shaking and air raid sirens blare and people start rushing down the subway stairs, soon the people coming down are burning and waving trying to put themselves out and they start sealing hte doors to the subway as soon no one alive is coming through. Or just a guy on his way to work, or being sent down somewhere to help repair some damaged pipe, dear god

Fallout game idea

I want a Fallout game set right after the bombs fall. Right after. Not like 76 where it's 25 years after (which doesn't count anyway 'cause it's multiplayer and online), I mean right after. You watch the bombs fall like in Fallout 4, only this time you don't have a Vault to run to. You watch as it destroys everything and you just barely miss the blast zone, or barely close the door of your family bunker or one of the Vault-Tec preservation pod. You wait a few hours, a few days, maybe a few weeks, but like everyone else you come crawling out. I wanna see the raw emotion in every single interaction after that, the processing, the loss, the grief and mouring as everything sets into place and people realising it wasn't a dream. I wanna see, not raiders, but desperate looters threatening you for any supplues, who are genuinely good people, they're just scared and trying to get by and they're sorry they really don't wanna hurt you but they need that water please they have kids-

I wanna see fathers trying to desperately keep their kids safe, a sister desperately looking for her sibling, wondering if they survived like her, if there's a possibility, or if they died. I wanna play a character who themselves are looking for their parents, siblings, etc, anyone they knew. I wanna see people recognizing bodies and skeletons, name tags, uniforms, accessories and having a bittersweet moments of half closure/half mourning as they cry over their family, friends, lovers, even enemies who they can admit didn't deserve to die like this, because they may be dead but at least they know what happened to them. I want a quest where the character you play goes to the home where they grew up and sees their things, old pictures, maybe their parents bodies, and they just can't handle it- But they're not alone, everyone's in the same boat and everyone's going through this right now, we've got this-

I want to see people slowly becoming ghouls throughout the game, settlements made of nothing but tents with people quarantined and dying of radiation poisoning, like at the police station in Fallout 3. People who were once doctors and nurses setting up outposts and trying, like the first town you go to in 76 and there's a makeshift clinic in an old church, volunteers trying to help create support groups and networks. People getting sick from new viruses and diseases as their once hygienic lifestyles no longer exist, they don't have luxary showers and soaps everywhere anymore, so new illnesses quickly spread.

I wanna see any military personal banding together to be scouts for a group of settlers, they're the ones assigned to actually going out and getting resources, teaching people how to shoot and defend themselves. People who used to be engineers making the first blue prints for generators and water purifiers, contractors and builders teaching people how to build shacks, teachers taking it upon themselves to take in all their students who are now orphans. Farmers teaching people to plant and being the only people able to regularly supply food. Maybe the player's charcter's skills and special stats are based on what they're job was before the war, if they had one. A doctor? Intelligene and science stats are higher, a politician has good luck and charisma, an athlete has good strength and agility, ect.

The end of dollars and cents, the start of cap currency and going back into the days of casual trading rather than luxury supermarkets. "I'll trade you some water for some tatos", no more taking things for granted. NPCs comment how surreal it is to feel like their living in the old times where trading was a thing farmers did. The whole world went back in time and feels like they're in the goddamn 1300s.

People discovering what's safe or not to eat anymore, being fascinated as crops start to mutate together and make a single, new plant, being terrified of animals mutating.

People reminiscing about movies and shows that they never got to see the end of, books that they wrote that will never get finished, a comic series they'll never see end or know what happens cause the writer's probably dead. Singing around campfires together after finding a intact guitar and people making requests for songs they'll never heat again, songs left in time. Someone raids a radio station and finds holotapes of some preserved songs and everyone at camp is so happy for the first time since the war, and they dance and finally feel some normality again. Songs they thought were lost, returned. In times where it's calm and they've finally processed, actually having the heart to joke around, discussions about craving food they'll never have again, wishing for a nuka cola that wasn't flat and warm, wanting a clean bed, complaining about walking everywhere when they used to have cars, etc.

I wanna see people trying to keep law and order before it slips away, old police officers and lawyers trying goddamit because this country let us down enough, we won't do the same to these citizens, these people-

People who once worshipped the American flag losing hope and realising it's faults and hating it. Patriotism turned to anger and rage, and a fight and fire inside them that keeps them going, keeping them alive, telling them to survive, determined to do better than the country and world of the past.

Those holotapes, notes, and terminals throughout the games, they're history. I want to actually play living in those moments, those times, those unsure, terryfying times. I don't want to just see it as history. I wanna play that person who's holotapes and terminal entries will be found years later by some vault dweller.

Fallout has always done an amazing job with this, the stories from the pre war ghouls in the Underworld, the pregnant runaway with no name in Fallout 4, the vaults scattered in games and time frozen in those places, the camps and desperate help zones built in some sort of cry for normality in 76, people trying to immortalise themselves like Mr House. The start of factions and/or cults, the start of people worshipping atom, the start of trade caravans being a thing, maybe making your own faction or trade company. But I don't want to just see it in the easter eggs in games, lost in time, I want to live through it. Just once. Just for one game let the player be the scared survivor leaving holotapes, notes, and terminal entries that'll be discovered one day, the only proof they ever existed.

What if, hear me out, vorts pulled some bullshit somehow interweaving the mind of Gina with the suit, stupidest idea ive had all year but it would just be interesting especailly if the suit slows deviated from its program and sounded more and more like actual Gina

According to one of Half-Life: Decay creators Gina Cross died somewhere in Xen. Colette Green got stuck in the personal collection of a bureaucrat with a suitcase. I stubbornly deny this scenario, but one needs to have a plan in case it turns out to be canon.

Gina invented the HEV Suit. Therefore, HEV has her voice. So here’s another scenario for you: Colette wakes up from stasis to do great things… and then her armor speaks to her using the voice of her deceased girlfriend.

Take out brain, fill with patriotism and kindness, bing bang bong you got this all American lad

*******PLEASE DON’T LEAVE DISHES OF SUGAR WATER OUT*******

Post from a beekeeper

Oh dear - I keep hearing tips about leaving bowls of sugar water out to “help” keep bees hydrated. Please, please, please DON’T. Bees are really good at finding what they need and there are so many reasons not to do this. The MOST IMPORTANT reason is that if you within 3 miles of some hives (and most people are) if the bees find the sugar water they’re going to think its a great source of easy food, go back to the hive and recruit more bees to come and collect the “food” and before you know it you’ll have 1.000s and 1,000s of bees descending on your garden/balcony - a very scary sight. This is known as robbing and as beekeeper I’ve seen this a couple of times - once started it is impossible to stop until the source of the “food” has gone.

Other reasons not to do this are - sugar water is essentially “junk” food for bees. Its full of carbohydrates which will give them an energy burst, but has no other nutritional value unlike the food they should be having i.e. nectar.

Honey bees will store this as honey in the hive. The beekeeper unknowingly may end up extracting and selling this as honey later in the year. You don’t want to buy sugar syrup and the beekeeper doesn’t want to be prosecuted for selling a product which isn’t honey.

This is also an easy food source for social wasps.

By all means give a tired bee a drink of sugar water on a spoon, but please don’t leave it out for them.

If you want to help bees there are lots of ways you can do this from planting nectar rich plants or leaving out bowls of water with gravel/small pebbles in so they can access the water which they would be very grateful for.

PLEASE SHARE THIS AND TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS

Edited - It appears that a lot of the advice I have seen about leaving out sugar water stems from advice from DAVID ATTENBOROUGH. He was absolutely right in his advice, but his advice was if you see a struggling bee to put some sugar water where the bee could reach it - not to leave out bowls of sugar water. Unfortunately it seems like, as usual, media publications have misquoted advice and not done their research

Also please don’t feed bees honey. Surprisingly they don’t eat honey - they eat nectar. Honey bees make honey for their own use during the winter months, but bumble bees collect and use nectar as and when they need it.

Feeding honey can spread disease between bees.

Why would i beat up dogmeat? Simple, I’m going to “slap” a pet right on his fluffy lil head and give him headpats and a treat or two, the only way i would beat him is at chess because i doubt he’s good at that

Who You Should Fight: Fallout 4 Companions Edition

ADA - I mean, like, you could, but why would you want to? She’s a just a happy, go lucky girl. Let her collect junk in peace you monster.

Cait - Bold of you to think that you can take Cait in a fight. Girl’s been beating up raiders since she was old enough to stand. She can probably beat you with both hands tied behind her back. Probably the most dangerous one here; avoid at all costs.

Codsworth - Nah the dude’s got a buzzsaw for a hand are you blind?

Curie - If you beat up Curie you could have everyone in this list jumping to her defense. Even Danse would probably come and kick your ass if you lay a finger on Curie. Vault 81 would hate you forever. And to top it off, you’d probably make her cry. You’re a monster. Don’t fight Curie.

Deacon - I imagine that Deacon’s got a decent amount of hand to hand combat experience under his belt since he’s probably a grandpa, but the dude’s more of a long distance kinda guy. I’d recommend playing the waiting game, then jumping him when he least expects it. Tbh he’ll probably laugh it off and not fight back, so there’s literally nothing to lose by smacking the upside of his bald head. Bonus points if you send his dumb pompadour wig flying.

Dogmeat - Why the fuck do you want to beat up Dogmeat?

Hancock - Depends on what meds he’s taken before you decided to engage. Jet? Yeah you’d probs be alright in the end. Alcohol? A little harder because Hancock’s definitely won a fair share of bar fights so proceed at your own risk. MedX? I’d consider holding off for now. Psycho? Just start running.

MacCready - Hell yeah beat that rat boy the fuck up. He’s got a son though, so just make sure you don’t do it in front of Duncan and you should be a-okay.

Nick Valentine - I’d say no. Nick used to be a cop and could probably kick your ass on muscle memory alone. If you leave him out in the rain he might start rusting, though. Use that to your advantage if you so desire.

Old Longfellow - It’s 50/50, honestly. On one hand, Old Longfellow’s a big boi and probably won’t fall as quickly or as easily as someone like MacCready or Gage. On the other hand, he’s like a bajillion years old and probably can’t see you without a pair of reading glasses. Use your best judgement.

Paladin Danse - When he’s in his armor, no. When he’s out of his armor, yes. But be careful: literally no one hates Paladin Danse more than Paladin Danse. He could go into an existential crisis in the middle of a beatdown and that might be just enough to throw you off your game.

Piper Wright - Definitely. Girl’s got some good self defense skills but you could probably point behind you, shout “omg is Mayor McDonough banging a synth in the bushes?????” and that’d be enough to distract her so you could gain the upper hand. She’ll probably fall for it more than once, too.

Porter Gage - Hell yeah. The dude’s made of twigs and bad decisions and probably has 5 different mole rat diseases. If you’ve got any trepidation, though, at least approach him from his blind side before you start smacking him around.

Preston Garvey - Look I know a lot of people don’t like this guy but how could you beat up a dude that just wants to help people? Like he could literally be offering you carrots and you would want to punch that precious face and be met with the aftermath? The betrayal? Would not recommend based on severe emotional toll.

Strong - Dude’s 7 feet tall and got no dick to punch. Hard pass.

X6-88 - Fuck yes X6 wears sunglasses indoors and probably overheats in that dumb black leather overcoat. Kick his ass and call him a nerd while you do it. 

This is fucking perfect and I’m going to start doing the bird call thing

FO4 Companions as Players I’ve Met in FO76

[This somewhat references the  list of players I’ve met in Fallout 76 here.]

Cait: The chick who, immediately upon meeting me, kept giving me the ‘PVP’ emote and jumping around in my face with an axe

Codsworth: The very first player I met in the game, fresh out of the vault, who was just as confused as I was

Curie: The Mom Figure who found me fighting a group of Scorched and supported me with free purified water (but didn’t try to help me fight)

Danse: The really leveled player who came into my camp while I was building, greeted me with a wave emote, used my workbenches, then dropped some stimpaks and pies as a ‘thank you’ before departing. (might as well have called me civilian)

Deacon: The guy who showed up at my CAMP, didn’t attack me, didn’t break or steal anything, just made direct eye contact, teabagged my bed for like a full minute, and ran away

Hancock: The guy I fought a gang of super mutants with, who was just as bad in combat as I am, and basically just ended up taking turns dying with me

MacCready: The southern guy who kept making bird calls at a Scorchbeast, calling them ‘fuckin ugly ass birds’ 

Piper: The guy who shot me when we were fighting a horde and felt so bad he gave me like.. 11 stimpaks as an apology

Preston: The guy who realized I was new to the game and gave me like two dozen plans for my camp instead of selling them

Strong: The semi-drunk southern gentleman who’s friends were just kinda like ‘yeah that’s Bob he does that sometimes’ as we watched him absolutely demolish a group of raiders

Nick: The guy who let me spent 5 minutes thinking I was talking to myself before he told me my mic was on

X6-88: The guy who spent a full 10 minutes explaining how to do part of a quest, only to finish explaining, ask where I was, and find out that in that 10 minutes, I’d already gone and done the quest myself

I 110% agree with this post in every single way, i hate the corruption and bloated bureaucracy but compared to the other factions, especially the fucking legion cause fuck those cosplayers

“I know the NCR has problems with corruption, but I don’t see any other factions in any of the games building schools, making railroads, creating jobs that don’t involve mercenary work, or creating rational rule of law. I’d still like them to step up their game and get rid of the influence of money in their politics, but I’m still going to be loyal to the New California Republic.”

I fucking love Dunkin. What are you talking about? You wanna talk real customers? Kid, that’s me. I’m like the mayor of Dunkins. This is the face of Dunkin Donuts right here.

Bioshock Acting AU

Where everyone’s acting and it’s absolute hell.

- Some of the actors are just like the characters they play or take it extremely seriously as method actors. Andrew Ryan gets pretty in character, but Steinman does some pretty Leto-ish shenanigans though and everyone’s tired of his shit by the time filming’s finished.

- On the other end of the spectrum, Sofia Lamb is completely different once the cameras stop rolling as is Fontaine. Lamb is hilarious and causes most of the bloopers. They’re both friends with most of the cast.

- Fontaine brings cookies for the girls and the other cast members. He’s actually married (Moira and Patrick are references to his wife and son) but still from Brooklyn. He messes up his Atlas voice a lot and it gets to the point he gets pissed.

- There are so many takes of Ryan’s speech. There are so many takes. “I chose the impossible… I chose… Fuck.”

- Cohen is a comedian and hilariously enough takes acting the least seriously. He ad libs a lot. Filming Fort Frolic is so much fun, they can barely get through the scenes everyone’s dying. The Kyle Fitzpatrick one is nearly impossible.

- Cohen falls down the steps and it makes that whole moment that much funnier he and Jack nearly piss themselves.

- Sinclair trips when he runs to the platform and falls flat on his face. Everyone loses it and Lamb’s cackling over the speakers. A splicer helps him up and they find out he broke his wrist.

- On the plus side, the girls sign his cast. It’s still pretty embarrassing, though.

- Porter used pictures of his actual wife and her voice for Pearl.

- Tenenbaum’s accent is 100% real as is Lamb’s and Alexander’s. Eleanor is Irish and sometimes her accent slips. Sinclair does have a Southern accent but it’s not as over the top.

- Delta, the Big Daddies, Brutes, and Crawlers are CGI so their actors are in special suits and look ridiculous.

- The splicers take off their makeup and prosthetics in front of the girls so they don’t get scared.

- Grace is an R&B artist who was very big in the 80’s-90’s. Stanley is a late night TV host who came up with the wild whoopie line on the fly. Everyone loved it. Delta, Sinclair, and Lamb laugh so hard they cry when they hear it because they don’t expect it.

- Alex the Great is later put in with CGI so there’s nothing there for Delta to react to.

- Andrew Ryan’s death is so overdramatic and there are multiple takes because Jack and Fontaine lose it at the final obey. Ryan gets pissed.

- There are so many pranks on set.

- There are tons of Instagram photos of the girls on set drinking juice pouches in their chairs. Tenenbaum joins them.

- Fontaine wears the CGI suit for the final fight and it’s ridiculous. He has bruises from the girls who get way too into beating him up.

Thank you to my one follower, I don't know why you'd follow me but I'm thankful!
