Odyssey Classic Audio Mod for Campaign Evolved was a game changer for me. Went from not being sure if I was gonna replay, to collecting all Skulls/Terminals, and completing half of Solo Legendary. nexusmods.com/halocampaignev…

@Chico_ftw 1. To be clear, I consider this a silver lining, not a justification. 2. I did not work on this. I just get to be a fan, but a fan who can get his Magnum and Pozole sounds back.

@DevGameDev "SEE! SEE! It's actually a good thing that we sold you a shit product with fewer features so you can fix it yourself!" Like, honestly man, do you hear yourself?

Campaign Evolved modders are doing some wonderful things. One of the magical benefits of shipping Campaign only is how much it de-complicates allowing great mods without having to protect the PVP experience.

@ThatSamWinkler I’m already on S2E3. I love that the core high concept is basically just TRIVIA. It’s so anti-wiki. And then it just lets actions, consequence, and choices shape everything.

@DevGameDev Facts. Season 1 had all the hallmarks of being too weird and good to be renewed but I’m super happy we got a second.

Slept on Sugar, and holy shit this show was made for me. Solid neo-noir detective drama, gorgeously shot, delightfully performed, and is secretly the kind of Martian Manhunter show capeshit convention would never allow to be made.

@ErickLorinc We’ve loved it. That’s the perfect description. My partner has never seen either version, and has been like “was the Gregory Peck movie like this?!”. Have loved hating CCH in this. And that SCORE.

Seems to be a minority opinion, but I had a lot of fun with the Cape Fear show. Stylish, trashy, over-the-top to the point of camp. And CCH Pounder!

My Dearest @Halo, +/- 1,000 world units on the Z-Axis is all that’s standing in the way of everything magic about what Campaign Evolved sandbox brings to this mission. Also, the doppler on this poor falling marine made me spit-take.

The random weapon drops skull was also great, but give me the curated version. I Would Have Been Your Weapon Skull. Replaces UNSC body drops with more curated human weapons to discover.

Mix it with Killtacular/Medal dynamics. Clear the beach hella quick? Special dropship adds some Jackal Snipers to the rocks. Needle Rifles. Swords.

I don’t make Halo anymore, but I’ve been thinking about how they could have incorporated more bonus weapons into the existing sandbox. They should have added BOBs — but make them Thel’s special units when you’re doing too well.

@jungle_penguins @torchedbyangels I’m sure he signed off on it, but any of the Easter Eggs with a likeness to a person or developer for ODST was something we wouldn’t have legal clearance for was swapped. I think swapping in Beamish just became a running gag.

@DevGameDev @torchedbyangels Did always wonder if it was a legal thing. Curious did Frank pitch the replacement Marty easter egg. Hamish Beamish is in a few MCC things.

Just found out they changed the "Destiny Awaits" poster in the MCC version of ODST, heartbroken.

@fuertecito I love it when movies remember that characters can just know people, and you don’t have to stop and have them tell us everything about them. You can just show us who they are during what happens next.

#SpiderManBrandNewDay Me gustó mucho la incorporación de Liza Colón-Zayas como Jean DeWolff y su relación con Spider-Man. De aliados en el campo, pero también materno-filial. Ella se preocupa por él, y él encuentra en ella un apoyo importante en ausencia de May. Aporta mucha calidez a la película. Y lo mejor es que no hace falta que nos cuenten cómo empezó esa relación para que nos creamos su conexión. Espero que la sigan desarrollando en las siguientes películas.

SPIDERMAN SPOILER WARNING - - - - - - - - I loved Jean Grey in this and fully understand her motivation, but, I was waiting for another reveal, someone controlling her or manipulating or something, because, she fully killed innocent people, not just damage control.

Brand New Day fucking rules. This is what a Marvel New York was supposed to feel like. This is a Spider-Man comic arc in movie form in a way we haven’t really gotten before. Got a few little spoilery gripes, but they really only based on what they do moving forward.

@ChaseSeaborne It’s a solid read, but that sadness and almost hopefulness in the original delivery already nailed it. Meanwhile, Cortana sounds like your friend who snapped and shot someone, and is making you help her bury the body.

@DevGameDev The ONLY line I can think of is that may be better delivery wise is when Chief says “Did anyone else make it?” That sadness in his tone felt appropriate. Even then that’s a maybe. If they remake Halo 2, we CANNOT have re-recorded dialogue. Literally just leave the lines alone.

Not a single performance re-recorded by the original VA is better than their 2001 version. It’s not nostalgia; it’s an understanding of intent, pacing, and motivation. This is a direction problem.
Nikos@nikos_on_yt

the old halo voice acting mogs the new voice lines. A fan put the old voice lines over the two betrayals cutscene and it's a night and day difference. Why didn't they just reuse the dialog from 25 years ago? It was already perfect
