@sadreturns I really liked Season one, where it felt like characters based on real people Fred met.
Then the later seasons became mini-dramas about those characters becoming real characters and I think it made the show far less funny.
@mr_evaporation The worst part of this movie is that single joke in the middle that’s gross, not funny, and goes on far FAR too long.
You know what I mean.
@MetricReject I remember when I first played WoWS, I was so disappointed when I found out the hull upgrade for the St Louis took the golden bow plate off.
@HugosHappyPlace@KivvyCat I ment that facetiously. They weren’t “a literal bomb” as if they were filled with nitroglycerin.
Also flamethrowers can spray napalm.
Yes, it’s are dangerous for the user as it’s heavy, bulky, not as long ranged as a rifle, and makes you target number one.
@HugosHappyPlace@KivvyCat They’re not filled with nitroglycerin. If you shoot a flamethrower tank it’ll spill and depressurize. At worst, the released pressure can knock the user over and some residual flames could ignite the spill.
“Can’t be extinguished by water” you’re thinking of WP there.
@fvck_censorship@KivvyCat Step one of using flamethrowers in Gates of Hell:
Separate that man from his squad immediately. No faster way to lose a dozen men that the flames accidentally hitting the hedgerow they’re hiding behind.
@TheEbonyMaw I’ve toyed with the idea of the franchise being limited to net taxpayers, but there might be a nasty feedback loop that would benefit-trap more people.
Most Gates of Hell defense missions:
“Ordering me to fall back? Pffft! I got this, ye of little faith.”
Finest Hour defense missions:
“Please for the love of God let me fall back!”
@BollingtonKevin@nocontextmemes TBH, my read is a third way. Bateman isn’t *that* interesting *alone*. The entertainment for me is his interactions with the most oblivious zombies on Earth and his paranoia about getting caught turning into frustration that nobody even cares no matter how bad he gets.
@OVTweetmarck When I was about 10 or so, I went to the Chicago zoo, and in it was a tiger in a cage smaller than an average bedroom and it was doing nothing but making pitiful sounds and pacing and I just felt sad for him.
The Columbia, SC zoo is/was so much better.
