Wonder Woman was indeed awesome. And all it took was a likeable actress being charming and the plot of Captain America: The First Avenger with a flavoring of Thor. Just wished they took a bit of Dr. Strange as well, specifically in the ending. If the final confrontation had been more clever and less Magneto-y with literally the ending of the first Cap happening on the side, it would've gotten full points. Anyway, since I'm apparently the resident Gal Gadot fan (entirely by default), here's some pics: She does have a nice smile. Edit: Oh and Beetle, you may enjoy the training scene at the beginning of the film. Apparently the other Amazons are actual athletes, fighters and the entire Norwegian(?) soccer team. They put on a show I'm told is legit awesome, emphasis on legit. I mean I thought it was awesome but I wasn't looking specifically for that kind of authenticity.

If you're truly master race, you figure out (read: google) how to edit your config files to change bindings that aren't included in the game's GUI.
Seriously though, what's the console mapped to in ME:A that it's such a problem with doing other actions?

I have 9 (one of each class, then my insta-60 KOTFE sage who I treat as a new character). Beyond that I have clones of a few of them for redoing the stories. Total is only 15 or 16 I think, on Shadowlands. See them here.

Such flattery from adoring fans. Speaking of, Seb needs to get his ass to Mars the Mortal Kombat thread and lay some proper adoration on the MK9 waifus.

Huh. Anyway, the "sacrifice" of anything here is pure conjecture. The decline of Mass Effect has plenty of threads about it already, and Anthem has its own section. So (hopefully for real this time), locking...

Had to end sometime. Besides, Shepard was already sacrificed to "art". Maybe a fresh start will bring good things. Regardless, there's not much to be discussed here that isn't already being discussed elsewhere so...

That was fast, even for BSN. On the contrary, this was slacking. But yeah, if you really look at it, the magic of Mass Effect all comes down to that little dialog wheel. It's kind of like peeking behind the curtain, except somehow you can go back and still enjoy the trick.

Shepard clone is in the next one. You can choose gender and fully customize them.
They turn out to be the villain.

heh, I love the lips in conjunction with her weird "cheek teeth". I didn't mind the stripperific stuff too much either, but I personally like their characters having better proportions (And Faces!) along with their outfits being less fanservice-y (I still feel like plenty of the outfits in MK X have some fanservice to them). My only problem with the pre-fight banters is that DLC characters seem like they get less, and some lines get recycled. I'm in agreement about liking the lore and story, even the stuff from the 3D era. I also hope they bring back some of the more popular characters from those times, although I'd mainly like to see Ashrah, Kira, Hotaru along with Li Mei and Sareena returning as fighters. It looks so bad though! I guess YMMV but I think it's just awful. Do they even explain how she went from full Tarkatan mouth to that unholy in-between? I don't recall it being mentioned in teh story mode, but in all fairness I did only watch it once. I think if you wanted Mileena to be a legitimate character and not just a gnashing psycho, you would have to address the mouth (although the case could be made that she just accepts it and covers up) but I think the better answer to that is she masters enough sorcery to do an illusion or minor shapeshifting so she appears normal until it's time to let the teeth out. I think the more recent webseries had that as an innate ability tied to her anger (although they played fast and loose with the canon, with her being a more legitimate twin to Kitana even before Outworld's invasion). Anyway, the point is all teeth or temp no teeth, but not this halfway shit. And yeah, still disagree on the fanservice. The Edenian girls did it best in MK9 and there the order is Mileena > Jade > Kitana. Proportionally... eh. Some variety would be good (although Mileena should mirror Kitana, being a clone and all) but again I think they went to far in MKX. And yeah I agree some faces could've used a bit of work. Unmasked Kitana for example. Ironically she conveys emotion better when she's masked. The only other flaw of MK9 is the lack of playable boss characters. On PC you can mod this but on console you're screwed. That would truly make it the complete Mortal Kombat experience for me.

Mileena (Ravenous, love her new design!) One thing I absolutely love about the 2 recent Mortal Kombat's is that they both had a really great story for a fighting game, and MK X having those pre-fight banters. Eh, no thanks to the new design. The lips thing is stupid and looks stupid. Beyond that- ok I'm going to be honest here, I enjoyed and have no problem with the stripperific look of MK9 and I'm not a fan of moving entirely away from that. "Realism" got it's skull shattered in an X-ray and its spine pulled out its asshole in the fatality. I encourage new costume designs to keep things fresh and I would also support costumes running the range of practical to fanservice so everyone can get what they want. But I'm not down with the toned down thing alone. The pre-fight banters thing is a great addition. That's the one thing I kind of miss in MK9 now that I've seen it in MK-X and the Injustice games (neither of which I own I just watched the story/related vids on Youtube). I never actually played any of these games, fighting games are simply not something I'm interested in (or good at). That said, I appreciate the design and style of the MK series. Characters like Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Johnny Cage, Shao Khan, and others, are all interesting to me both in terms of design and backstory. Yeah, I am also interested primarily for the lore. I have moderate-low interest in fighting games but I really suck at them. I have never been able to do a fatality until MK9. I can't do combos more complex than three buttons. And I spam stun attacks and/or teleports like mad. But I got into the story and world of MK enough to enjoy most of the media. Games wise the original trilogy (and thus the updated story of that in MK9) is the pinnacle of the series for me. I think beyond that it got a little too crazy, characters got lazy and they needed to do the in-universe reboot that they did. I can't say I'm a fan of where they're going with the new one either. Too many classic characters dead, and this "new generation" ain't doing it for me. I can appreciate an actual narrative with consequences so you don't just repeat the same damn thing every time but I still like me my classic MK.

You find the most interesting things when you're searching B5 images... otherdimensionsandgalaxies.blogspot.ca/2014/09/b5-cast-suggestions.htmlFan casting is usually largely people putting either their own favorites or just the most famous A-listers in the roles. But sometimes there's some nice surprises. I'm not sure about most of the choices in the link but I could definitely see Simon Pegg and Sam Witwer in those roles.

Huh. So I was listening to the theme (as one often does) and I realized we don't actually have a thread for this. Why the Elder Gods would allow this to go unaddressed for so long I do not know. But it's time to rectify this and Test Your Might! Discuss any and all games, movies and merchandising tie-ins! Also characters and lore and krap. Replacing any and all C's with K's optional. My favorites- Characters: Raiden, Shang Tsung, Noob Saibot, Sindel, Mileena, TOASTY! guy Game: MK9 Crossed over Kharacter: Kratos. Mostly because Sony ensured he never went out like a bitch. A rare example of good Executive Meddling. Random thing: Cooking with Scorpion!

You're missing a lot more flings for SWTOR (understandable given the amount of content). It won't help your numbers. www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=3881Those are just main game. Also why do you have Lemda as a full romance? It's just a couple of flirts and a kiss.

Temple's dad was about to be captured by Sith, so she went and killed him herself. She gave him a quick, painless death instead of letting him suffer in the Sith's care. He was dead anyway. Please. It's a big galaxy, and everyone involved is literally pro at disappearing for a living.
There is no excuse.

This is what I like for Bioware's bisexual characters to actually be. It's not copy and paste where they talk to a cardboard cutout. It's just made just for one gender before badly modifying for another like Reyes, Kaidan, and Peebee. Bisexual characters react differently toward different person they're converse with. This is what an actual well done bisexual character look like. They're not copy and paste but a unique experience for both. If they want to use the excuse of bisexual characters cost the same resource to make then they really need to make them stand out and varied like that. It would also allow different playthrough of male and female to romance the same person to be a fresh and new experience as well. I'm pleased to hear this. A while ago I was discussing something similar (playersexual characters, but eh) and remarking on the benefits of making the romance different between male and female PCs to allow for both variety in an efficient package and incentive to try it the other way. The counterpoint was distrust that BioWare could do it justice. I'm glad they have done it justice.

^Hit the nail on the head. Her dad, an Imperial Intelligence man risked his life to keep her safe from the madness of the Sith. He set up a good situation from her, working with the Chiss, almost enviable really. And she repays him with murder? Uh-uh. My agent would die for the Empire but absolutely despises the Sith. She saw a protege in Temple before but now? Even after years working with the Chiss she's still brainwashed by Sith beliefs and turns on her own family, both literal and figurative? No way is that allowed to stand. To the woman who became the Imperial Ghost, she simply can't be trusted. Nothing new there with 80% of her crew, but at least the others' motivations can be used and counted upon. Temple though? Beyond salvage. I headcanon a quiet shiv one night when everyone else is away and a quick ejection of the body near a star. If she does come back I hope I can kill her on-screen but if not, this will have to do.
