It's just nerd trivia basically, I don't believe it's ever really come up.

People always forget that he's covered in ashes as well.

Exactly. That, and if you look at the earlier games, his wife and daughter are quite dark themselves. They still argue. I'm just like..
He's cursed with eternal ashines for what he did to his family
Whole thing was like a Hercules reboot until you cave in Hercules'skull with metal lion fists.

I still remembered the day I found out Kratos was Kyle, I couldn't get the Living Single theme out of my head every time he spoke in the game.
Black Desert, the shit is the realness
His brother is cooler
This is true.
Why can't you complain about how they set up the premise as a rebuttal to me? Because it's god damned irrelevant. The argument was never "No Man's Land is a great story" it was that Bruce didn't want Clark flying in to try and fix everything and whether that was the right call on his part or just Bruce being an asshole. You want to talk about how good of poor the premise was to force that situation? Cool. Do that. We can have that discussion. Don't do it as a rebuttal to a completely unrelated point.
And clearly you didn't remember or bother to search the wiki since you were comparing Gotham to Katrina and talking about evacuations when that wasn't an option once the boarders were closed. If you really wanted a real life comparison and you actually remembered the storyline you have the Haiti earthquake sitting right there (which still wouldn't be accurate, mind, since American relief workers weren't forbidden to enter Haiti). So don't try to front like you did.
As for capitalism, see my first paragraph. What the he'll does it have to do with what was being discussed? Where did the invisible hand of the free market enter into Bruce Wayne'a decision making when he told Clark to not try and fix Gotham. Explain it to me, if you can. Explain it like I'm 5.
No, you didn't bother to try to argue a single point in my rebuttal to you. Took the time to directly respond to your post and argue my point with you, despite my better judgement from previous experience, and instead of showing me the same courtesy you sum up my post as "too much" and go off on an unrelated, irrelevant tangent and now you want to get heated that I called you on that bullshit.
That's why I'm accusing you of intellectual dishonesty and bandwagon jumping. And if I got the latter part wrong, then I apologize to you, because that was rude of me. But the former? Maybe you do it unintentionally, but from my perspective it is absolutely true.

why we beefing the day after the resurrection?
Ya know what, I'm growing on
the Aquaman scene. If they didn't show him holding his breath and held too long on him it would've been fine. Having Miles/Papa Pope be Silas Stone was nice. That Motherbox had me happy once I learned what it was. If they had some villians such as Killer Croc or anyone in Suicide Squad that would'be been a nice tie-in.

Batman brings out the worst in people.
The Secret World.
Soon Spidey will rise from the dead and save our souls.
Don't jump out to get attention with that "I wouldn't want to live in your city SuperSophist" shit and then call me rude. I've got no sympathy.

Thankfully I already got it. Just looking for a decent gameplay driven alternative.

If you prefer to have a large amount of combat centric content to do at level cap.. go Guild Wars 2. World Bosses, Dungeons, Living Storyline, Server vs. Server World PvP (instanced), Arena PvP, and Seasonal Events.
Black Desert if you prefer more of a Sandbox feel and want more freedom to pursue your interests Owning Property, Fishing, Breeding Animals, Making and Sailing ships, Creating and Running Trade Routes, Talking to NPC's and having that actually matter to your Character Advancement. The "end game" is GvG PvP and there is Open Guild PvP but it isn't the greatest as it's extremely taxing. GW2 suffers a bit of that too though in their Server v Server instance.
Great quests and atmosphere, shitty everything else. Combat sucks. Gearing sucks. Dungeons and Raids are straight meh.
ah...
well I wasn't accusing you of "using fallacious arguments in order to deceive". and the sophism I'm referring to is the original use of those philosophers who were strict in their convention and principle and its affect towards society and human behavior. they fell out of vogue, and sophistry became a "bad" word.
but you can keep your sympathy, attention, and everything else.

Haven't played TSW in years. Really good setting and world building.
X-Com 2. But my sniper has Serial and an Auto-Loader, rendering most missions trivial.
WoW and DOTA. Might pick up Stardew Valley.
Guild Wars 2 is Free to Play now. Though you will have to purchase the expansion if you want that.
Just got back into Guild Wars 2. Have also been sucked in by Hearthstone and Warframe.
I need to play a regular-ass single player game at some point.
I've been in a funk the last few years, where i haven't really had the motivation to play anything, but i still keep buying games regardless. (cause i'm that gaf cliche)
But saying that, i'm in the closed beta of Overwatch, and have been playing that in drips and drabs.

Finally going after my last achievement in Transformers Devastation which means I have to beat all the chapters on Hard or higher with an SS rank.
You good people. Shadowfall is my next stop after Valkyria. Well, actually I'm going to finish Namco X Capcom first, cause I want to finish Project X Zone 2 and I recently got to the point that it's being heavily implied that the villain of this game is connected to the villain of that game. And while I'm at it, I plan to take on the other three games in the series: Namco Super Wars, Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Endless Frontier, and Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier EXCEED. Then Shadowfall.

I sure play a hell of a lot of strategy games for a person who doesn't like them. I'm also way better at fighting games than I have any business being, considering my general apathy to the genre. I wish my skills matched my tastes, but I mostly like trash that anyone can beat given enough time.
just started up a modded legend run myself. Fun game.

Y'all brehs need to start rocking that Finn (ex-Poe) jacket and start going to these conventions and find you a Rey.
The baby is not here for their bullshit
There were a ton of Rey's at Wondercon the other day.
Marvel presents: Black Excellence. I can't wait to see all the people who say that they can't relate to what happens during Luke Cage.
To force an analogy DC right now feels like the GOP. Holding on to the past and not really trying to move forward

Just got done replaying Arkham City NG+. Wish more games embraced NG+ in general, but whatever. Gonna replay Red Dead Redemption prolly later today.
And since I still got Batmayne on the brain, Slay what's up with Hugo Strange? What caliber of villain is he? Does he have powers or anything? I ask because I was cracking up the way he got headbutted in the climax and he didn't do shit.
Damn, you haven't been here in a minute lol
