    Yeah, the SHIELD stuff should be way less contentious in terms of rights, correct? They kicked off Daredevil pretty early in the MCU and before it was obvious Netflix doesn't know what the fuck it's doing, but SHIELD has always been a fully Marvel property, right? Even if they spun it out of the MCU to do their own things and stop having to worry about continuity, it ran plenty close to reintegrate without much trouble at this point.

    By the end of Agents of SHIELD, the TVA should have stepped in and pruned the timeline(s) they created that diverged from the Sacred Timeline.

    That said, they should re-introduce a lot of those characters in the Lokiverse, because they were great.

    The Netflix shows were low stakes enough that they could be integrated without makor issues.

    I assume that's basically what happened. The TVA pruned them, and then Loki un-pruned them. To be fair, their time travel rules did match how it work in Endgame before Loki started, even if that may have been a coincidence.

    Can you imagine what following up on all that would work these days?
    "Good news! Phil Coulson survived! He only was dead for a few seconds!"
    "That's good!"
    "Except it was actually hours and he was in unimaginable agony during it while we injected him with Kree blood and strapped him in a machine."
    "That's bad."
    "But he did come back to life, and he mostly forgot about it and thought he was on vacation in Tahiti. Thanks to our brainwashing, but still."
    "That's ... good?"
    "Oh, but he died again. He was Ghost Rider for a bit, and that killed him about a year later."
    "That's ..."
    "And then he came back again, except he was from an alternate dimension, but actually he's some space villain with his memories or something? I don't know, that was a weird season."
    "Th"
    "And then he came back again AGAIN, except now as a Live Model Decoy, so he's technically not alive but also he's technically immortal. And he's in charge of an alternate reality of SHIELD where Project Insight happened back in the 1980s. And then Owen Wilson caused us to cease to exist, but then an alternate version of Loki brought us back."
    "You know what? It doesn't really matter. Most of the Avengers that Phil Coulson remembered are dead, retired, or whatever Steve Roger's deal is anyway. We'll tell Thor he said Hi."
    Meanwhile, Captain Carter and the Watcher were seen on the couch, trying to figure this shit out.

    I think we’re unlikely to see anyone from Agents of SHIELD ever again besides maybe Coulson in a flashback or something.

    Fiege and Marvel Studios had nothing to do with it and there’s no obvious reason to bring it in.

    Hmm, what exactly does the game mean when my braton prime incarnon evolution says it adds +4 base damage (or more importantly +38 base damage when a channeled ability is active)?
    In the stats window it looks like this with no mods equipped when I switch between +4 base damage and +2 base damage from the two second tier evolution options for the braton prime:

    6cw57fts2gel.pngn8j0mlhm7ro8.png

    and I can't figure out how these numbers relate to each other at all

    for reference the base stats without an incarnon are
    pe69kv5oboa6.png


    ... oh is it dividing up the extra base damage amount proportionally among the base damage types?

    I was trying to figure out if my riven with -100% impact damage is going to hurt my base damage a lot when the channeled ability +38 bonus is active, but if it's just losing 5% of the total base damage that's not too bad.

    Except, you know, longtime fans love some of these characters, and it'd be an easy lay-up if they have a role where they'd fit without too much exposition.

    AoS was, at its best, a show that felt like a CW show if you kept the characters consistent and focused on their genuine interactions without the need for constant drama of the week. And I mean that entirely as a compliment: the reason CW superhero shows are so frustrating is because they get so close to being enjoyable and throw it all away for some pointless, out-of-character bickering. (and AoS, at its worst, did throw in some of that pointless bickering every now and then).

    So I'm not going to say I wouldn't enjoy a FitzSimmons cameo, but the slow burn is what made those characters work so I think if they pop into the MCU, any audiences who don't know them will just be left wondering what makes these randos special. That sort of slow burn is, as a side note, something we probably won't get much anymore with the stretched-out-movie TV show format (I have mixed feelings about that because I just don't have time for 24 episode seasons anymore, but they do present an aspect of character building that you can never do in a six episode miniseries).

    My excitement a few days back over finally being able to build Octavia after getting her BP was crushed when I realized that I still didn’t have her neuroptics, and that meant throwing myself at mumblety numbers of 20 minute survival missions.

    Not only did that pay off just now, but immediately after that mission, Kela De Thaym gave my the Saryn systems BP, which was the only one I needed for her!

    incarnons adding base damage means that basically every other damage mod applies to them

    it's the best kind of damage buff, basically

    if the latron incarnon genesis adds 96 base damage, the values you put underneath, (for latron, it's 15/70/15) shows where that 96 damage is going

    This stupid Fragmented one really makes me miss having shields when I'm playing Nidus. Any frame with shields? Can basically ignore his attacks, even on SP - companion will Guardian me up. Don't have shields? Be careful you don't miss his animations in the absolute flood of particle effects from your allies or you're going to eat shit, nerd.

    I was running Harrow and decided to check with his ult how much damage I prevented on one of its attacks, and it was like 1.9 million - or, more like 475k-ish per player.

    Wtf, man. Give me some way of generating overguard for myself on melee attacks or something lol.

    Grant Ward was perhaps the best heel turn I've ever seen. A stroke of genius to make the white-bread POV character into a villain, and coordinating that with what was, at the time, the biggest event in the MCU was just perfect. It gave a meat to the "Shield was bad guys all along" that the movies never pulled off. That, combined with him just playing a villain very well, won him so much good will that I wasn't even mad at the third or fourth time they revived him (because as annoying as it is to dredge up dead characters, they thought of some awfully clever ways to do it).

    Yep! My very first kit.

    I will say I wasn’t expecting the directions to be 100% in Japanese, but so far the pictures have been mostly easy enough to follow, although I’m not totally sure what some of the little symbols mean. But I’m managing.

    Cross-save brought a lot of people back. I'd been playing for years on PS4, but my friends all quit and I don't really play multiplayer games without friends playing. Now my life is over because I have friends who will play this game forever on PC who are pretty hardcore about it. We were really casual on PS4, even if we played all the time, and I've literally never learned to mod weapons or warframes seriously. Warframe was a total brain-shut-off wind down activity for us. Now I've got to actually learn to play this game.
