What is the most stupidest gun you've seen in fiction?

>>64202227 (OP)
> pistols in both hands
- Ok and cool.
> twin pistol
- stupidest gun.

Why?

>>64202227 (OP)
Is that the guy that's killed manymen

>>64202227 (OP)
>Shoot one cyka twice
>Shoot two cykas to the left and right of you at the same time
You're just jelly of Bloodnofsky

>>64202227 (OP)
this would be cool if it were a sci-fi energy weapon with a foregrip

>>64202227 (OP)
That dumb looking smartgun thing from 5th element

>>64202272
You have objectively bad taste.

>>64202230
Because unlike real twin pistols it doesn't make any sense. How would that feed from a magazine?

>>64202368
They can have own separate clips.
I've seen in old film how Shvartsneiger attached 3 or 4 rifles by a glue tape and shoot like that, and it was cool.

>>64202227 (OP)
The squad rotary cannons in Deep Rising. But I also love the concept, just as equally as I think it's retarded. It being a dressed up Calico is bonus, always nice to see the Calico.

>>64202399
>clips

>>64202227 (OP)
The franken-guns from many science fiction film posters in the 80's and 90s'.

>>64202433
I just watched that a few days ago after someone reminded me of it. Mad decent B movie.

>slap holosight+laser pointer on AK
>it can now shoot airburst rounds
I still dont understand

>>64202452
10/10 ending with the island set up, I always thought it could have been a decent lean into a corny King Kong film sequel.

>>64202461
Would an air-burst 7.62×39 even be worth fucking with? Seems like it would useless being that small.

>>64202479
Im sure someone could take the various rifle-caliber HE rounds that exist and math it out to figure what it'd actually do, but I'm 90% sure it'd be less effective than the kinetic impact unless they handwave it as a form of super-HE

>>64202452
for me its 1999 Virus

>>64202227 (OP)
Probably this bizarre thing from Blade 2.

>>64202514
Just a MAC with a long barrel and barrel shroud/compensator, innit?

>>64202399
No they can't lol. Look at the picture again.
>>64202517
>innit?
Issit. Looks like a protoversion of the aesthetic idea they'd later iron out in Elysium at >>64202461.

>>64202530
>Issit

Hey man, I'm American I speak English, not British.

>>64202530
>Inniy?
>Issit.
It now occurs to me that it probably should be ittis, but anyway.

>>64202408
You might win. This gun was awful.

>>64202535
>Hey man, I'm American I speak English, not British.
You speak English (Simplified), not English (Traditional).

>>64202514
Never understood the need for there to be special guns that shoot wooden flechettes or the whole "silver works on vampires too" excuse, when you can just have a priest bless your ammo.

>>64202461
What if the laser is a rangefinder and the blocky thing below it is a programmer for the airburst rounds like AHEAD uses? But yeah, I never really got into Elysium because of this kind of shit. It's the same deal with his road warriored R35 GTR. It's just a weird aesthetic choice that doesn't make any sense. I'm less bothered by the AKs in that Star Wars show, those are just whatever the prop shop had on hand to represent a weapon as opposed to a intentional decision.

>>64202461
Presumably, the sights are able to imprint whatever information on the bullets as they are leaving the barrel

>>64202543
American English is actually closer to traditional English than what the English are currently speaking.

>>64202558
The Blade movies are virus vampires(the lamest kind)so silver being used makes sense because of it's antiseptic properties.

>>64202559
It makes more sense to make some gucchi attachments that can work with existing weapons and weapons systems then making expensive custom weapon

>>64202408
If it was called a machine gun like it was supposed to be it would be less egregious IIRC they scrapped what was supposed to be the assault rifle in development and just called that thing it. Doesn't matter that the M60 existed in FO2 and an LMG in NV. East Coast FO devs are retards.

>t. always mad

>>64202227 (OP)
...what fuck is that?
...better, I don't want to know. fuck that shit. Dear God.

>>64202408
This is a blurred part of Fallout lore. Unlike the power armor that is now canon as older tech from the war before the nukes, the weaponery may be extracted from BoS research.

And BoS is not the most competent when it comes to research, they are technoskeptic cultists. The real brains are in the different branchs of the Enclave. It's even almost certains that any real evolution will be made by the Enclave in the series.

>>64202571
The show at least has the decency to have people not wearing power armor use it as a machine gun rather than an assault rifle. Though trying to reconcile all the small arms in Fallout only works if you assume Fallout America had an India-tier procurement system. Which admittedly kinda fits.

>>64202408
I don't really have an issue with water-cooled shroud future guns when you pair them with power armor because they would be like fifty pounds. It's when a bare ass human then uses them without issue, that's then things get stupid.

>>64202461
>slap smart detonation control module on AK (which happens to also have some extra sights)
>loading compatible explosive rounds will detonate them appropriately if configured for airburst
Makes sense to me.
It would be popping useless firecrackers today, but decent payloads in 2154 explosives, sure, why not.

>>64202568
Sure, but if you can afford a gucci airburst attachment with ammo and an R35 GTR, you can afford a better gun than the Ahmed Special. I get the idea that some things will become more accessible with time and other things already exist and get the job done, I don't have a problem with fusing old and new tech. I just don't feel like their choices of old tech make sense here. Why an R35 instead of a Patrol or a Pulsar or even a Z34? The Z would be just as unfit for purpose as the GTR, but at least they're common and a clapped out one would be affordable however many years in the future that movie was set. And why an ancient AKM instead of a Saiga-12 where the airburst rounds would make a lot more sense?

>>64202608
Airburst on tiny rounds seems like ass IRL unless it's a volume fire situation.

>>64202613
The real answer is they didn't think that deeply into it because they didn't need to.

The possibly in-universe answer is the rich fucks in their fancy taurus ring don't give a shit and just supplied some fancy gribbles to go with whatever the gutter slum where using and don't give too much of a fuck how its accomplished.

>>64202500
The monster design is scary af + youngish Jamie Lee Curtis is hot

>>64202655
That's the thing though, the aesthetic of the movie is very consistent. Someone clearly decided that an AKM and a GTR were the correct aesthetic choices where they were used. That's the thing that bothers me. Like I said, I have no problem with the AK in Star Wars that people were getting their panties in a bunch over a while back. They just handed him the nearest gun-shaped object off the shelf and no one put any thought into it. It's whatever, they wanted to show a character with a gun so they handed him a gun. Elysium is specifically showcasing this fusion of old and new with some sort of air burst attachment on an AKM. Why that gun? Why not a shotgun? Why not an AR? Why not a Mosin? There's lots of guns I can think of reasons to be used there, but the one they went with is baffling to me.

>>64202771
bro you're too deep, yes airburst kalash is dumb, but at least the props in elysium looked cool and it fit the whole cyberpunk theme mixing old and new tech wether it made complete sense or not. The real question is why big budget star wars just tossed a guy who is supposed to be in a galaxy far far away the most recognizable firearm on planet earth without doing anything to make it look like it belongs in that universe, it's fuckin laziness.

>>64202724
>Jamie Lee Curtis is hot

>Imagine being Arnold in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Jamie Curtis, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 16 year old in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Arnold and not only sit in that chair while Jamie Lee Curtis flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, JAMIE LEE CURTIS LOOKS LIKE THAT?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and supermodels and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Austria. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with personal trainers in the previous months. And then the director calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Arnold. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

Good ol Early Life

>>64202545
It always struck me as weird how there's so many shitty P90 replicas around when it's already just a 10/22 in a plastic shell. How hard could it be to make one that actually looks right?

>>64202965
>>64202945
I mean, I can at least respect nepo babies who can act and look hot. sure they were born with a foot in the door - some halfway through - but they at least fulfil the minimum requirements. e.g. Angelina Jolie, Daniel Radcliffe, Liv Tyler, Domhnall Gleeson.

but this bitch. fuck me.

>>64202433
I’d do unspeakable things for a backpack-fed 5.7x28 shoulder-fired minigun.

>>64202227 (OP)
Any and every bullpup.

>>64202461
It's not just a holosight+pointer combo, that whole attachment is a computerized firing system that calculates distance uses special bullets like miniature AHEAD ammunition, that''s why his AK quickly runs out of ammo, there was already near to no ammo in the magazine.

>>64202558
These guns don't shoot wooden flechettes, they fire silver projectiles.

>>64202301
You aren't ready for the New Flesh.

Organic guns are a cool concept. When I die I want someone to turn my body into a gun.

>>64202558
Hell, just casting straight-up silver bullets would not make them that expensive.

Silver costs about $40.92 USD / Ounce right now. Casting it into .45 ACP equivalent size (185-230 grain or 12-15 grams) would give you TWO rounds per ounce of silver. That's about ~20 USD per silver bullet. Assuming that all the other costs (brass casings, gunpowder, primers, machinery etc) remains the same, I'd recon we could get them mass produced with around (let's be generous here) $25 per silver ammo.

That's NOTHING, if you are fighting against special targets. A single .50 cal ammo costs you around $ 4.00-4.50. A single .450 Nitro Express used in Elephant guns costs you about $10 / round.
$25 per shot against vampires? Buy 200 rounds and it costs you 5k. Then just mag-dump them mofos. If you are part of some government-sponsored vampire hunting team and have military budgets, that's absolute peanuts. Hell, arm the whole platoon with those silver bullets.

Fuck Dracula, we can take him.

>>64202878
Indeed. It's SO lazy, that it makes me wonder if the prop department guy had his own head-canon about AK-looking blasters and now had the chance to make it canon. So he just did it.

The rest of the Star Wars guns at least make an effort to dress them up with scifi-gizmos. That's just... lazy. Or someone went "Fuck it!"

>>64203349
If you look closely at the Andor AK, it's actually much more heavily modded than most of the WW2 milsurp they used in the original trilogy. The whole receiver and top cover are custom made, as is the plastic furniture on the forend.

The only reason it looks lazy is that the gas block and front sight post have been left mostly intact, and those happen to be the defining feature of the AK's silhouette.

>>64202433
That's not stupid tho...

>>64203322
I see too ways to go about it. Only put a small amount of silver into each bullet, like fill the cavity of a hollow point or replace the copper jacket with silver.
Or just use a lot of normal bullets and have to coup de grâce them with something like a wooden stake. Assuming they're Blade-like vampires and do suffer from conventional weapons.

Or just do the John Carpenter's Vampires thing and harpoon them then drag them into sunlight with a trunk wench,

>>64202771
You're right, would have made much more sense to have an AR-15 in Africa considering the Americans sold millions upon millions of them there

>>64203420
Maybe you should watch the movie before making stupid comments about it.

>>64202893
>Have you seen what Maria Shriver and that maid he knocked up look like?
It would take a team of analysts to get to the bottom of his choices but if I had to guess, something like this?
>spend your entire life perfecting your physical form
>peak vanity and a strong dose of narcissism
>be highly vulnerable to seduction because you crave approval and worship
>be too high profile to easily cheat
>often alone with maid in home who calls you handsome and likes to feel your muscles

He'd be attracted to her being attracted to him, not to her body specifically.
That's my guess.
Does he live alone these days or have a new maid/mistress/girlfriend?

>>64203461
>be highly vulnerable to seduction because you crave approval and worship

You understand cheaters well.

If local hood rats can easily acquire explosives 5000 times stronger than modern high explosives then why were the machine guns and grenades used by the personal robot bodyguards of a fucking billionaire so unbelievably shitty in comparison? If you could fit enough HE to lift a 200 pound robot off it's feet and shred a third of it's body with a thimble full of shrapnel in a .30 caliber rifle round WITH room left over for complex computer systems you could fit enough in a grenade to level a city block.

>>64203469
NTA but it's pretty simple when you sound it out like that. They have a problem with pride and hangers-on tickle it.

Fuck me in the mandalorian they EVEN HAD AN AK IN IT THAT LOOKED LIKE AN ACTUAL FUCKING BLASTER.

This show looks awful

>>64202408

>Lewis gun rear fins as if it uses forced air cooling.
>Maxim gun closed front as if its water cooled.

Never noticed that before and its aggravating.

>>64203626
Maybe because giving yor security guards grenades that can level a city block is wildy retarded for defensive purposes. Either way you're talking about a setting with surface to space manpads, shurikens that carry enough explosives to vaporize a body, wrist mounted energy forcefields capable of abosrbing rounds from a gun shown to rip through space station walls like paper and magical med pods that can reconstruct a corpse's head and bring him back to life with only minor mental instability.

>>64203403
MHI did it best, glazer safety slug 45acp with silver pellets under a silver ball at the tip abd a traditional copper jacket to engage the rifling because silver is too hard. It's basically silver shot and ball in a 45 copper sabot.
And 12ga No1 silver buckshot, of course
And silver pre-formed notched wire frag sleeves on grenades

>>64203461

Not having a problem with the AK is a sign of autism.
AK is distinct enough that it stands out without additional greebling.

>>64203918
At least they actually chose to ignore that stupidity. Would be much worse if they kept using the 2shotdead, 3shotvapourised function again and again, while ignoring when they needed to build tension.

>>64202771
>the one they went with is baffling to me
The AK has long been the designated "insurgent terrorist" gun as far as media and women are concerned. Even if they don't know the weapon or give a damn about it, they can crayon a picture and say "give me that gun". Which is probably what happened. Remember, film-making is primarily a visual medium. All they know is what images will trigger the feeling they want. So far as the director is concerned, xhe probably told the armourer "give me a gun that audiences will take one look at it and say OKAY THATS AN INSURGENT NOT A PROPER SOLDIER". Or as the white women say, it's "insurgency-coded".

>>64203380
>those happen to be the defining feature of the AK's silhouette
Probably deliberate because see above

>>64202771
>>64204153
people using ancient equipment in Cyberpunk universes is on-brand but seeing a R35 GTR and a 2nd gen silverado in 2154 was a bit of a stretch. AKs i can excuse for their ubiquity and lack of anything to go wrong inside them but who the fuck is making parts for a 2012 duramax 142 years later

>>64202461
If airburst rounds were common it probably wouldn't matter what kind of gun you used to fire them, and the holo/pointer was probably necessary to arm the rounds for the correct range.

Why an AK? Ubiquity, large caliber, semi auto. You could totally use an AK in that configuration today, it would be heavy and somewhat awkward but there's nothing inherently unrealistic about that.

>>64202514
This would actually work irl.
It's just an Uzi that fires blanks/wadding from a normal mag, which protects flachete from a barrel extension.

Flachette is too long to load in normal mags (see: spiw) so firing it like a rifle grenade makes sense.
Firing blanks the Uzi jamming wouldn't fuck it up, and you'd use an Uzi because you wanted a short barrel to accommodate that flachette extension, and the telescoping bolt is ideal for firing blanks because it will cycle easily.

Anything larger than 9mm, it would be hard to use with one hand, so the fast rate of fire compensates for that. Everything about it is short range.

You know I think if you loaded flachette in empty 410 cases and used a 410 mag and barrel extension, you could legitimately fire it from a regular gun with 9mm wadding. Ballistic performance very poor, but it would cycle, and fire

>>64202301
>he doesn't order the special

>>64202408
It kinda, maybe, possibly, might look passable in the first glance when your brain only latches on to the reference, before you start thinking about it deeper and the more you do, the worse it looks.

What I wanna know is how much this is applicable to the entire show.

In this context I see stupid in three ways.
1. Unrealistic, we couldn't do it today
2. Poor Canon, doesn't fit within its own context
3. Tactically invalid. No reason for the operator to use it.

The usual offender is some kind of support weapon, used by a villain who isn't supporting anyone, magically transports it, never runs out of ammo and can't kill the hero with it.

>>64204142
That was the joke, autist

>>64202558
>>64202566
blade is actually set inside the marvel universe. in that universe it is canon that the effectiveness of a symbol is entirely dependent upon the user, not the priest. this means that a Jew holding a cross is absolutely fucked. however, a Jew holding a star of David (and actually believing in it) can repel Dracula. this actually happened in the comics when Kitty Pryde met Dracula.
since Blade isn't exactly a believer in anything beyond all vampires must die, a priest would not be of much use to him.

>>64204237
>it is canon that the effectiveness of a symbol is entirely dependent upon the user, not the *deity
it is IRL canon too

it's only a matter of time until the H.R.T. Geiger body horror poz-golems in america start growing mossberg shockwaves and keltec sub2000s out of their axe wound

The missile launcher from xXx being a camera on a PVC pipe still sticks to me as the worst looking weapon i've ever seen on a movie, this is the same movie that gave us the sickest looking .44 revolver

I remember seeing a webm of a rotating Gatling gun but with only 1 barrel at the middle.

>>64204203
How ubiquitous are AKMs in LA? Keep in mind that this is a desirable preban antique, not a ghetto blaster.

>>64204237
So an extreme autist who's into 40k could make the sign of the aquilla and scream "The Emperor Protects" and it would work. Neat

>>64202771
>Like I said, I have no problem with the AK in Star Wars that people were getting their panties in a bunch over a while back.
The problem is that it's just a short AK with 10 round mag. It looks too recogniseable and out of place unlike the fudded out WW2 guns that barely resemble their original gun. ar-15 with no stock, a1 style foregrip, barska 4x20 rifle scope on top of it carry handle and classic waffle 20 round mag will fit better. People will not recognize it unlike AK which even the most liberal no-gun normie has recognize the silhouette of.

>>64204370
>How ubiquitous are AKMs in LA? Keep in mind that this is a desirable preban antique, not a ghetto blaster.
Keep in mind the setting is a lawless hellscape where no gun law or any law exist. The AK is probably just 60 years old at most and was made in some makeshift gun factory in south LA.

>>64204411
The US has proven that it's incapable of making functioning AKs, even from otherwise well-regarded manufacturers. Why would it not be an AR with a printed lower?

>>64204237
Yes, the comics published by Marvel are set in the Marvel universe. The movies with Wesley Snipes are their own thing.

>>64202479
This is the same setting in which shoulder-fired missiles can be used against targets in low orbit. They've made some serious advances in chemistry.

It could be worse.

>>64204673
Yes i agree these are interesting

>>64202408
The gun itself is god damn an abomination, but being fucking huge for a power-armored soldier makes some sense. The actual game one that is rifle-sized is just retarded

>>64204427
>The US has proven that it's incapable of making functioning AKs
Well the movie shows it being jammed before it even fires.

>>64203663
>a gun shown to rip through space station walls like paper
Tbf that isn't especially hard to do, at least today. Our current space station solution to micro meteorites and debris is essentially "hunker down and pray" tier.
I have not watched the movie thoughbeit.

>>64203649
it is awfully gay and retarded

>>64202368
It's not just that, it's also WTF would it even be for? The whole point of a handgun is that it is small and easy to conceal or carry on your person. A double-deagle is enormous and heavy making it totally impractical as a sidearm. If someone were willing to carry something that big and bulky they could get much more firepower out of something different.

>>64204326
I know what you mean, it looks like a jank Stinger, but it works enough for a fun B+ movie
same as that revolver and the "xray goggles". doesn't make a lick of sense if you really look carefully, and think about it
>stop thinking SWAT police and start thinking Playstation!

also, if you'd never seen a Stinger before and see it in a movie, you'd swear it was made of spare set rigging

When i heard that Amazon was producing a Fallout show, i was 100% convinced that it would be the worst thing in the world. I said so on /tv/ more than often. Than it came out, and i was honestly very positively surprised. It's a pretty good show. You should give it a chance. If you don't like the first episode, you can just drop it.

nta i went in with the worst expectations and found it satisfactory. i have a handful of lore breaking compliants but when you understand that nothing in fallout can ever be 'fixed' it makes sense that every time someone or something finally gets humanity back on track to what the are supposedly trying to do there has to be someone smashing the reset button.

the only thing that really triggered me was moving shady sands. Shady sands wasn't in the middle of a metro, it was built far away from the giant radioactive hole that used to be the major metros and built with adobe huts and ollolololoooooooolooloooollolol. it's like they hate the tribal aesthetic.

It's usually down to blanks. It needs to be reliable shooting them without an obvious BFA, and directors often want something with an impressive muzzle flash, which you wouldn't get from a .22 and maybe even from real 5.7.

Bro, the zerg are explicitly serial numbers filed off tyranids. GW contracted blizzard to make two games, one based on warhams classic and one on 40k. GW pulled the rights at the last second leaving Blizzard with some 98 percent complete games that they otherwise wouldn't have been able to use, so they changed them just enough to not get sued, and watercraft and starcraft were born.

IIRC the airburst module has Cyrillic text on it, so I assume the whole thing is a black market import from somewhere in the former Soviet Union. Maybe AR-based equivalents never existed because Western countries had the budget to develop whole new guns from scratch, but Eastern and 3rd world ones had to retrofit their existing AKs.

This is kind of a myth as far as I know. It's true that WC was absolutely based on WH but GW was never really involved, Blizz made the game on their own with initial plans to license it as a WH game but eventually decided to make it their own thing, either because they wanted control of the IP or because GW rejected them, depending on which devs you believe. Either way GW was never involved with the actual development and never had a deal with Blizz though.

Dracula was a Solomonari, scholars who studied with the devil to learn magic bullshit like controlling the weather. I figure the hexagram is supposed to represent one of the seals of Solomon. They're also associated with heptagrams.

To be fair, what do you define as "closer?" On the one hand, the current UK set of accents descend from that same common accent that the American set and the UK set descend from, but the UK version is actually a direct continuation of the accent as it was practiced in the British Isles, whereas the American accent had external influences not present in the UK and does not have an unbroken chain of development like the UK version does. That being said, it's silly to fight over which one is "closer" because both sets are modern and the American accent changes too. You wouldn't, for example say AAVE, Valspeak, or the Appalachian dialect closely resemble the language at the time of the colonies. What you're usually referring to is the General American Accent, but that too isn't from the colonies, and is mostly relegated to the 20th century and beyond, making it a modern accent, just like the rest of them. That being said, unlike in the UK, and England specifically, American English varieties don't usually out you as being part of a particular social class, region yes, but not class.

>>64206213

mate, it's the typical American accent which is a
>modern invention to crudely ape after gay nobles fashion

the white American accent is descended from Transatlantic, aka what you hear in period movies from Gatsby to WW2
Transatlantic was essentially an American attempt to modernise and adapt an upper-class English accent for Americans

>>64206749
>>64206807
I can't speak for the accent itself, but a lot of American vocabulary and grammar are preservations of things that British people also used to use but have forgotten. "Fall" instead of "autumn" for example appears in Dickens. A lot of others are things that postdate the Revolution as well, like "gasoline" vs "petrol" or "tire" and "tyre."

>>64206802

>"Fall" instead of "autumn"
so far as I know, Shakespeare used autumn, so Dickens can suck my dick, and I'll dip it in brandy butter just for him

I'm not sure about word choice. Americans tend to favour (over)simplifying, which can inadvertently lead back to Middle English words rather than later (Romance) loanwords
on the other hand Americans are just as happy as everyone else to use words which sound fancier
and when all else fails, make up their own language (and spelling) so everyone knows they're the cool kids

Like seriously imagine having to be Raylan and not only stand there while Aunjanue Ellis flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her potbelly and ashy skin, and just stand there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that scene. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as your daughter tells her she's A QANG! and DAMN, MO-TOWN LAWYERS LOOKS LIKE *THAT*?? because she’s not the ones who have to sit there and watch her jiggaboon face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and later alleged federal fugitives for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Harlan County. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her stretched stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to stand there and revel in her "Africanesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with personal caterers in the previous months. And then the DA calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single Crowder in this state before the Marshall Service could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Raylan Givins.

accents these days are becoming increasingly homogenized and it's so annoying.

>>64206894
It's what happens with mass media, bro, but do not worry, since other kinds of accent differentiation always form. It's human nature, but can you imagine if two hundred years from now there is a 4chan dialect of English because accent and dialect is dictated by communities that span the globe? I personally have stupid fantasies like this because I think it would be funny. I was almost hoping that words like lulz would enter the vernacular like based and meme did.

>who the fuck is making parts for a 2012 duramax 142 years later

>>64206928
The West Coast is an interesting case because so much of the population are 1st or 2nd generation (either actual immigrants or transplants from other states) that real local accents barely exist. There actually is a "native" Californian accent that's persisted among mostly older people in rural areas, but people are so unfamiliar with it that they'll think you're from another state when they hear it. (It's sort of a mix of Midwestern and Southern, maybe comparable to a toned down version of an East Texas or Oklahoma accent, I assume because CA's pre-WWII history includes a lot of Southern and Midwestern migration.)

Webster (of the American dictionary variety) had a hard-on for antiquated "proper" spellings and terms, reaching back to more "pure" English. So technically American English is closer to the original English. However, Samuel Johnson, author of the first true dictionary literally shaped our language along the "I made it the fuck up" model. A lot of etymology at the time was just wild guesses, and he would attribute some words to Greek or Latin root words they were not related to, including their spelling (remember that not many people were literate in his day, and proper standards of language had yet to be firmly established). Not only that but he was inconsistent in places, such as deign and [dis]dain, and the spelling and use of the word Ache, which was originally from a Germanic term spelled with a K, but a mistaken Greek root prompted him to spell it with CH instead. It's history in plain sight, and I like it.

Realistically GW probably stole the idea from someone else. They haven't had many original thoughts in the 40k universe. Rouge Trader from which it spawned was basically just Dune.

Well yeah, it's definitely not identical or as strong. It's like if you mixed 15% Texan into the otherwise standard Californian accent if that makes sense, just a little bit of twang at the end of sentences or the occasional different pronunciation of a word or whatever. Just enough to sound identifiably "country" to somebody with a tuned enough ear, like if you can tell LA and Orange County people apart by accent you'll probably be able to recognize somebody from the High Desert or IE as well.

Hey moron, no show adaptation is made with the gamers in mind; they already made money from the gamers, and now they are making money from the non-gamers. Not Arcane, The Last of Us, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, The Witcher, nor Castlevania were made with gamers in mind.

>>64221402
>Arcane stayed true to soul of the games.
Arcane also had a lot of retcons, but since very few people know the lore of League of Legends, almost nobody complained.

Cyberpunk's lore retcons caused the video game and the board game to change their lore to adopt what the show said. In this case it was minor details.

One show makes retcons, so it's bad, but the others make retcons, so they're good? Make up your mind. LOL

>>64221574
Retcons themselves aren't the problem. The quality of the show on its own decides people's reaction. Edgerunners and arcane season 1 were good so people are okay with those retcons. Fallout show and recent games are trash so the retcon's get added in as a reason to dislike it in addition to the reasons it's bad on its own.

>>64221590
>Fallout show and recent games are trash so the retcon's get added in as a reason to dislike it in addition to the reasons it's bad on its own.
Anon, again, the people who enjoyed the show (which were many people) were not the same people who played the games. The show was well received, whether you want to admit it or not. What you are saying in...
>Edgerunners and arcane season 1 were good so people are okay with those retcons.
... directly contradicts what was said in...
>And that's precisely why the show sucks ass. It had to dumbed down to the level of long abandoned public toilet dregs for women and normgroids who had zero interest in the games to begin with
Whether it was you who said it or the other who said it, now you are denying reality when you choose to ignore that the show got 65+ million viewers in 16 days, by now it's surpassed 100 million viewers and the studio is set to release season 2 in December.

Arcane (once again, season 2 never happened) is a separate continuity from the game and as such nothing was retconned, although the show's lore is much better than the game's (which now unfortunately includes a lot from season 2, which I choose to ignore because it's ruining the game's lackluster lore).

>In this case it was minor details.
Changing minor details is necessary in order to maintain bigger details and broader perspectives.

>One show makes retcons, so it's bad, but the others make retcons, so they're good?
I'm not the original person you were replying to. I'm not against making changes, I'm against making changes that make things worse. Edgerunners was great and changes it made enhanced both the show and the game. Arcane S1 was great and didn't attempt to rewrite the game at all, just to coexist with it. S2 was the complete opposite, everything about it was an affront to S1 and the game, both. The Witcher was a mixed bag, it started off 50/50 good and bad changes but has been trending more and more bad. Fallout was shit and unsalvageable. I haven't seen The Last of Us, but from what I've heard it's maybe slightly less awful than Fallout.

Anon, again, there were retcons in season 1. Again, the only reason you don't see them is because you didn't know the game's lore well enough.
>The origin of Hextech, the lore from the Ferros Clan making it to Jayce and Viktor'scollaboration. This entirely retcons Camille's character because she's supposed to already have her augments before Jayce and Victor were successful.
>Jayce and Victor's friendship was a retcon. They went from being rivals constantly competing with one another to having that brotherly bond.
>the show defines the creation of hextech as the major event that reshapes the world, denying all the awful things that happens in the world before hextech. This retcons many characters.

If you can get it smooth bore, it would be dumb fun. imagine making homemade napalm shells, sabots, mini harpoon gun, oxycontin loads, stuff like that

>>64219454
>I don't care because both of those games are garbage
Best selling games in the franchise, BTW

>>64213500
>Why did they make it?
the obvious in-universe explanation for me is because they're fighting the fucking chinese, you know, enemies flowing into view continuously in human waves .. and they just keep coming

>>64219568
Every once in a while you'd see a hunter buying a rifled .410 shotgun to only put slugs through it. It's a workaround to have a "rifle" for states that only allow shotgun hunting.

>>64219675
The rifled barrel makes shotshells useless. Only slugs or special sabot shells work well in guns like that.

>>64213500
>Why did they make it?
>Who made this trash
Many people are convinced that the non-in-universe reason is that Bethesda's art team has a bunch of gun-hating liberals, so they make firearms look cringe AF. They make guns in fiction less cool so that fewer young people grow up to like guns.

>>64203649
I dunno, I thought it was okay. Could've done without the nigger tho

>>64221733
I'm well aware of the lore, you're the one that isn't. They're moving away from this, but the way things worked when S1 came out is that every skin line occurs in a separate reality where things are slightly different, and each has its own specific lore that contradicts the mainline lore in many ways but it doesn't matter because it's happening in a parallel universe. Arcane S1 is the same deal, completely distinct from the mainline lore from the game. It wasn't until S2 that they started trying to rebase the game's lore onto the show continuity and fucked absolutely everything up in the process.

thats not a problem because there are tons of decent quality weapons mods for free, like I have

Your obsession with blaming everything on season 2 doesn't change the fact that all the changes that were present in season 1 were declared canon by Riot, so now the show's lore supersedes the game's former lore.

The existence of mods does not mean that there aren't problems with the base product. Bethesda gets worse with each iteration (look at the weapons in Starfield). Plus, while Fallout 4 can be fixed, Fallout 76's relationship with mods is iffy. Bethesda needs to get their act together (hopefully before Elder Scrolls 6 is ruined).

>>64222340
fallout 76 is mostly a fallout themed chatroom with optional microtransactions, the fundamental technical design choices have introduced multiple undesirable aspects to the gaming experience that make it not fun as a game.. and starfield is very unfinished game that will never get all the content originally intended for it

True, but none of that changes the fact that the existence of mods doesn't mean there aren't problems with those fucking retards at Bethesda.

>>64222507
I have insulated myself from the problem, I am playing fallout 4 with the patch downgrader, with the "old-gen" version where all the mods work

>>64221458
oh

PC master race I guess.

Yes, this happened in conjunction with the release of season 2, though. The game lore and the show lore were completely separate in 2023. Then, in the second half of 2024, everything went to shit.
