I want the twist to be that Makuta is actually a good guy, and by awakening Ekimu, they've unknowingly doomed Okoto.

It'd be a real nice case of Nice Job Breaking It, Hero.

Of course, I think that since everyone thinks that LEGO won't do another giant robot, that's exactly what they'll do.

Life has been freaking hectic. Between moving, school, taking up a job as a freelance critic (it's a legitimate job [that doesn't pay anything]) and moving, I've been too busy to deal with anything forum-related. But now...

I've been wondering what to do now that I'm back. Any ideas?

The Legion is actually great, and definitely add a lot to the lore and gray moral choices of the game. Do you select NCR, who is 'morally good' and endorse pre-war values of democracy and justice, but are failing millions of people, have tons of enemies, and are ultimately a horrible choice to run New Vegas, or do you side with the Legion, who are 'morally evil', but have safe territories, plenty of resources and have healthy, happy citizens?

 

I picked NCR though don't get me wrong. I can fix everything. Go America.

Of do you show with the "neutral" Mr House, current lord of New Vegas, or do you take a fourth option and betray everyone, using your robot army to rule Mojave as you see fit?

I always, always pick that last one.

Well, after a bit more time in Fallout, I'm starting to get into it. Definitely not a fan of Caesar's Legion, and I'm getting a bit more used to the combat. Despite the slow and kinda painful start, I'm starting to see something that looks good here.

The Legion sucks, but Caesar is really interesting as a character. Sadly, most of his character is only revealed in the Legion questline.

Pyramids? I thought Pohan-Vor was more Arabian than Egyptian.

just when i was starting to like you

 

played a little left 4 dead 2 today, the valve campaigns have all gotten old but there's still a plethora of great custom content out there if you have a good team

Heh heh.

I picked up Serious Sam Classics: Revolution for 99 cents. I'm almost done with the First Encounter, but I'm having some issues with the last level. The werebulls are annoying me halfway to Hades.

I am Basically Batman, aka MacGyver. BOW BEFORE MY DUCT TAPED GLORY!

MacGyver in the 80s is Basically Batman. Come 90 days, I shall change it to Barely Batman and put up a picture of RDA nowerdays.

You may have noticed you don't have any flags yet.

Sorry.

I've been limited to a tablet for the past week or so, so I can't get to work on your flags. My computer's in a bad place right now. It's running a fever and wails whenever I leave it alone for more than five minutes. (TRANSLATION: It overheats and I have to whack it in order to keep the fan from sounding like an audition for a FNAF jumpscare.)

Actually, once you finish the main quest, the game ends and you can't do the side stuff.

Well, I guess riding on the back of a huge game is a bit different from their other stuff, since the entire audience already plays games.

 

Anyways, got Fallout: New Vegas recently, a few hours in and it's... Slow. Nothing really interesting happening yet, really hoping stuff gets interesting soon since I'm just focusing on main story quests and as such expecting a 10-15 hour run.

That's not good. You need to explore as much as possible. Do all the side stuff you find. If you so much as think there's a quest-giver in the area, talk to him/her/it. You'll get the most fun out of the game like that. If you're focused on the main quest, things don't get real interesting 'till you get to Boulder City.

Also, if you're not doing side stuff, you're gonna hit a paywall. Literally. A giant wall you have to have 2000 caps to bypass. You don't have to pay 2000 caps, but you do have to have them.

E kara te kaikira fariihaa i rete i Onukara. Ko mea, he matotere Vorox. E kara matou e rite ki te nui Agori, rānei.

In English; Racism is not tolerated in Onukara. That said, Vorox are icky. We don't much like Agori, either.

Ko tonu i te tinihanga Onukara. Onukara is full of hypocrites.

Tribal Matoran is just Maori with some occasional letter changes.

Also, the way Irrie phrased the timeskip, with that whole "must avoid war" thing made me think bad things were happening.

So... what were they? I'm assuming Pohan-Vor was secretly responsible, or they wouldn't immediately rush to the Temple.

Also, we have a BZP topic. Cool.

My name on Steam is "IB: Destroyer of Spoiler Tags," a reference to an incident in the Rant Square when I broke a spoiler tag. I'd change my BZP name to it, but it's too long.

So, it's the anti-order, pro-chaos argument? Didn't we debunk that already with the Lego Movie, how you need a balance between order and chaos to achieve true awesomeness? Unless...

OMG EKIMU IS EBIL TOO

Actually, maybe Ekimu is too chaotic, and the Toa have to show both him and Makuta that they need to be balanced and work together and be nice to each other and don't run with scissors and the heart of the cards, blah blah blah.

But, does it om nom?

It's a great moc. I love the rib cage and head designs.

Hau many bad puns are you going to run across in this? Well, here's mine:

 

Nokama started a collection of Kakamas, and also made the Nokamakakama. Now if she was able to double the mask power of it, she would get the Nokamakakamakakama. And if Vakama liked the idea and made his own, then forged the two together, you would get the VakamakakamakakamaNokamakakamakakama.

 

Now that's a lot of Ks, but it gets worse. Trinuma and Onua find Brutaka, Matoro, Orkham, and Makuta, and they all join, making the Vakakamakutrinumanokabrutakonuama. And if that wasn't enough, Kopaka, Takua, Onewa and Whenua come along! Giving us the Vakakamakutrinumanokabrutakonuaonewhenuakopakatakuakama.

 

That is all.

Matau likes Haus. He made the Matauhau. He accidentally stuck his Hau with a Kaukau and made the Matauhaukaukau. If he doubled it, it'd be the Matauhaukaukauhaukaukau. It's Matau's Hau/Kaukau. I ask you, Hau?

Or "if Matau wears the Mask of Illusion, why didn't he just trap Makuta in an illusion where he's already won?"

OR DID HE?

Dun dunnn!

IMHO, the MoCtrl was a glorified Komau, though it may have been slightly more powerful since even though Ekimu was the best, Makuta was still a decent mask maker in his own right.

I think they're Nuva shoulders but with the holes hidden by the cape. What I want to know is where did that chestpiece come from.

Has anyone here played the first CoD before?

I'm playing the original CoD. It's great, until the third English mission. Then it sucks. It gets better by the Soviet campaign.

Just letting everyone know I'm not forgetting their flags, I'm just busy. Hoping to get Dane's flag done by Monday.

It's been fun. Don't come back.

Just kidding. It's been great. Hope to see it again, soon.
