I want to beat Drummer's drum!
sadly shes got to go...

Monica mommy
>>220029698not really? he was a terrible, lacking character and i fucking hate belter scum
>>220029724The actor is good, that season just kind of sucked balls.>>220029723>>220029637This show had some sexually attractive women if you know what I'm saying.
check em
Gotta talk about that ride kid. Next clue to the case.
>>220029751i like the actor, bit it was just such a shit and contrived character>is supposed to be this intelligent, wise and experienced soldier or whatever he was>acts like a retard in almost every case>hes le bad because... hes just being a cunt for some reasonhes motivation was just retarded, it was very poorly written
I want her to spin on my drum
>>220029812i initially hated Thomas Jane's character in this, >le fedora wearing loser noir detective, but in the FUTURE feels very fucking contrived and overplayed at this point, but after season 2 I actually started missing Miller and him chewing up the scenery in his scenes, easily became my favorite character
>>220029812best character on the show, was very sad when he left and surprised when he randomly appeared in holdens head (i didnt spoil myself with the comics or whatever). the show was still good after the investigator but he left a big hole that nothing really filled
>>220030484>the show was still good after the investigatorit really isntit peaks again for a moment when this based nigga appears, but not for long
>>220029637cuck queen
>>220030525i mean...yeah...it has its moments but it never really peaks like it did with miller
>>220029637Belter lager pride
>>220030403>>220030484It's a testament to Jane's acting (and a damnation of Strait's and Tipper's acting) that he was able to carry the first season and a half of the show.
>>220029637spin the drum
>>220031401i feel like the whole "falling with love with the chink girl" plotline could use more work, felt kinda forced , but otherwise, he was kino
>>220029698The actor was really goodThe character himself was kind of a trainwreck, just like everything about season 4
>>220030025Gotta strap that thing down. It's an extreme hazard during high G maneuvers. Could easily crush you.
I have a lot of drummer stuff saved on my phone
>>220029637they're making an action figure of her, and other characters. terrible things will be done to miniature Drummer
>>220031812Miller wasn't in love with Julie. He was in love with an ideal in the shape of Julie: the self-sacrificing daughter of a billionaire who abandoned her easy life to join some righteous cause she had little to no connection to. While Miller, on the other hand, is a miserable, jaded private security officer (for an earth-based private security company) who takes bribes on the side. It's the ideal Julie that inspires him to to be better, more noble, to be self-sacrificing. It redeems and revitalizes him in a way. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Julie is young and attractive. Holden may have the Rocinante, but Miller is the Don Quixote of the story and Julie is his Dulcinea. https://youtu.be/8JDjYm6vgdY
Only after finishing the series did I realise that I was only still watching because I thought Jared Harris would come back. He did not
>>220034260>jareddit harrisoh no...
>>220029637>>220032902>hate belters >except me drummer Simple as.
>>220034392and Ashfordand Millerand Fred Johnsonthat guy that suicided into space Che Guevara in the end tooi guess they arent all that bad
>>220029724>>220029751>>220029825I absolutely disagree. He presumably has a long career as a middle management goon. He does what the company wants, makes his meager pay, and moves on. In spite of constantly dealing with the space equivalent of gypsies, he still confirms to moral standards and norms.UNTIL his second scene in the fucking show, when the space gypsies sabotage his shuttle and most of his colleagues die all around him. And he stares down the entire time. He stares down into the void, aware that at any moment a piece of debris could whiz through his skull and kill him. No idea when or if it will happen, nothing he can do except sit there and stare. He faces his own mortality and has severe ptsd the entire season. That’s why all the gripes from his career come right to the surface. The mask is off.
>>220030403The fedora always looked goofy, but losing him hurt the show so much. You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.
>>220034426I don’t know if Miller counts. But you’re right. 90% of the time, I’m watching thinking >these fucking beltersAnd the other 10%>this belter is kinda based
>>220035086>I don’t know if Miller counts.why wouldnt he?if anything Fred Johnson shouldnt, since hes an Earther originally
>>220035150>Miller is viewed as an outsider to the Belt—a welwala. He doesn't speak Belter Creole or have its distinctive accent and is inherently suspicious of the Outer Planets Alliance.I guess you’re right, though. He is still a belter.
>>220035289belters are fucking retards, they view anyone who they dont like as an outisderthey larp all about muh belter brothergood, than space Che Guevara appears and start bombing and killing eachother on the second
>>220029637I fucking hate her and how redditors are so predictably drooling over her.
>>220035920>I fucking hate her and how redditors are so predictably drooling over her.
>>220035150Fred is an honorary Belter. He devoted his life to helping them and lifting them up. Only to have them sign on with Marco and betray Fred. Then Marco just destroys most of the Belter factions because he was a terrible leader set up to fail by Laconia
>>220029812I heard he dies and now I can't even bring myself to finish s1's finale because what's the point when my boy dies
>>220036126and still got shot in the back by belter scum
>>220036175>I heard he diesnot really
>90% of belters are ugly, violent, irrational tattooed retards who talk like Jar Jar Binks >The 10% who are smart and logical, and who work towards be treated as equals on the system stage are all shunned as uncle toms, forever stunting their growth and condemning themselves to be a perpetual underclass.What did they mean by this?

>decent tv show>gets cancelled>enjoy it so much you buy the rights with your infinite money>make some more seasons>cancel it again before the story is finishedIs Bezos retarded?
>>220029637Wa'aw madoodoowinini onandawenimaan Drummer gfMadoodoowinini bjaaking dibendaagozi
new expanse video game coming out soon, shame it looks like a shitty mass effect rip-off but i'll probably still play it to larp as belter scum
>>220037987Billionaires don't really like or believe in anything except money. They fake having interests to make them appear more normal, like Elon with his fake gamer cred. Bezos' little LARP as a TV show and movie enjoyer came prior to him having a divorce to pay for.
>>220037987technically, the writers said its not "ending", but its on a "pause" might get resurrected, especially if those upcoming games are successful and bring new people also, theres a time skip in the next 3 books where everyone is like 20 years older, so it would make sense.
>>220037446bobbie a qt :3
>>220038828breeding sow
>>220035920>rdsget well soon
>>220036175keep going his arc is kino
>>220037446I'd wage a war on her guts if you know what I mean
Do you think there is a large demographic of belter women into raceplay? Earther men would be significantly more muscular with a higher degree of stamina. Combined with either the desire to be degraded by inners, or the allure of the taboo of associating with inners and being labeled as a earth mans whore, there's a lot of potential for fetishization. Imagine the hatesex between some Earther middle management guy far away from home and his OPA sympathizing subordinate, still in the closet for her love of BEC. It would be kino to witness.
>>220029637can't stand the sight of FNs simple as
>>220039438you just had to post na*mi...
>>220034260Probably his most milquetoast performance ever. Absolutely nothing to the character, he had nothing to work with. That stupid accent didnt do him any favors either.
>>220041033Sorry, couldn't remember any good shots with sexual tension between Sakai and Bull, so this was it. But hey, uggos need love too.
>>220041462Yeah, what a waste of such a great actor. Don’t they unceremoniously kill the character offscreen in a later season, too?
Best girl is actually Regina.
>>220041591Fuck you're right, in like a single line of dialogue too. I thought the writers literally just dropped his plot line. It makes sense from a character perspective (Marco doesn't want a moderate voice around which Belters can distance themselves from him), but it was a major disservice to just go "he's dead"
>>220039438most definitely
>>220041782what about Polly?
Damn, I forgot about this show. Finished the books though.
>>220042528>Tats>Faggot pins on the jacket>Way too many patches for someone that young. Yeah, I'm thinking gas.
>>220042528are they making belters actual uggo deformed freaks in teh game?
>>220043873that's the rumor
>>220043948Owlcat better not cuck us out of uggo love.
>>220044734i like how they kinda forgot about this guy after season 1 lmao
>Belter girl on talk show
>>220045397Lol, probably for the best. Bro got to have his tall alt gf on Ceres and hopeful fled when Inaros took over and lived out his life peacefully.
>>220045397>>220045714iirc he has an arc in the books that just got meshed into another character in the show, i think in season 4 on the ayylien planet
I can't wait for the gameI hope it has cute girls
>>220045862>I hope it has cute girlsit has, but not all of them are.
>>220029637I've only played the Telltale game I hated this bitch hard. Sucks, because she's the main character.>>220029715Love him in GOT and Man in the High Castle.
>>220029681This was Elliot Page's best role
>>220046502Topkek. At least "he" didn't get pregnant in it like that movie from the 2000s
>>220034426Fred Johnson is from Earth.
>gets MeTooed and spontaneously killed off
God I hate this faggot and his stupid face so much bros, it's unreal
>>220049611If not Steven Queer, then who? Sincere question because I agree he may not have been the best choice for Holden Commodore
>>220049174>send that bobs and vagene, hoss
>>220045488do martians really?
>>220050718^Belters
>>220049048He's also a nigger. He tried to steal the Rocinante the first time they met but got outplayed. He also stole that Mormon colony ship to turn it into a warship. Fuck Fred. Literal bicycle thief who moved on to ships. Only good thing he did was ventilate that station those Belter terrorists took over.
>>220050250hes not a jeet
>>220055985are you sure?
>>220043873They better
>>220056055yeah, iranian
Best titties in the Belt.
>>220049611The main character of a gritty-and-realistic™ tv show suffering from main-character syndrome is very funny.
>>220056314Post the real 'ting.
>>220056314>>220056421>LITERAL cuckoldry plot
>>220056506>we want the miga audience
>>220029724>>220031955in the books they actually had to have amos read his mind and state that he's thinking bad thoughts to make him out to be a villain because he was 100% correct 100% of the time. how did the show manage to fuck that up?
>>220056696theres mind reading in the books?
>>220043873>>220043948>>220044734>>220056159they just dropped an extended gameplay trailer. belters are just regular people but taller.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvqjYEucbrYthe player character is supposed to be a belter in this.
>>220056744on this one occasion
>>220056790The player characeters dont have creole accents, you moron.
>>220056314MEMANEOJUNGESPINO-
>>220056908that scene was literally in the show
>>220056919why are you calling me a moron?does anybody in that video have a creole accent? what makes you think i'm wrong? presumably you found out about that trailer just now, from me, and assuming you spent every minute from my posting to your reply watching the video, you've still only seen a fifth of it, forget about doing any research.
>>220057084well alright, so why were you so confused when i mentioned amos reading murtry's mind? you couldn't piece it together that that was what i was referring to?
>>220057154nah, i thought he actually could read minds or some shit in the books
>>220056790Damn, that's some bland ass dialogue, expected better from owlkeks.
>>220057187no, though he became some kind of zombie in the latter third of the series which never made it to tv. it's actually the best part of the whole thing, if they had adapted it, i might have suffered through the show. i dropped it at the start of season 2 though. i liked the bobby actress a lot, but everything else was shit. in fact the bobby and amos characters were the only things i liked about the show. i love jared harris and tom jane but they were not very compelling here.
>>220056210Don't besmirch Iranian's good name like that, unless they're diasporoid fucks, which besmirch and then some.
>>220057476hes literally iranian, retard
>>220049611>legally blind without his glasses>he's genuinely acting blind in the showAlways makes me laugh seeing him squint.
>>220057594>>220049611>puts hands in pockets>stands infront of you>squints his eyes retardedly smirking at you>looks like discount Jon Snow>makes the dumbest fucking retard decision>somehow everything goes well cos hes like Space Jesus or something and can do no wrong
>hyped up as the technological superpower with ships that shit all over Earth and power armored muhreens that train in 1G>MCRN gets btfo and pushed back to their shipyards near Saturn by the UNNWhat did they mean with this?
>>220057614At least he's tall unlike Kit Harrington who's a borderline midget. The Expanse actually has a lot of tall actors, most of the men are between 6 - 6'4 feet and the women aren't much shorter.
>>220057672i dont care of he was a fucking 8 feet tall belter, hes by far the worst part of the whole fucking creweven naomi had redeeming qualities despite her decision making being as retarded as his
>>220057300Devs said on plebbit that it's just placeholders and they haven't done any voice acting besides this mission
i might be retarded, but i still dont know or i missed who actually did the initial attack on the Canterbury and the mars ship at the start?was it Anderson Dawes?
>>220057699Well I disagree. But Holden pretty much only exists to keep the plot moving.
>>220057699>naomi had redeeming qualitiesshe absolutely did not
>>220057761she had a fat ass
>>220057721it was the mao shadow company i think
>>220057721Destroyed by the Anubis under the command of Protogen
>>220057641I think they were just outnumbered
>>220057614This guy was such terrible casting for Holden. He's way too awkward and autistic and he also can't act for shit.
>>220058887nah, hes perfect, holden is a bland retard in the books too
>>220057721Protogen stealth ship destroyed it after Canty turned around to check out Julie Mao's distress signal, they didn't want any witnesses to what they were doing on Phoebe
>>220057641The primary things they were counting on were their first strike missiles which got destroyed. When Bobbie gets to Earth and sees how much of everything there is, sees awe struck. She realizes that "martian marines train in 1G and will dominate" stuff is just propaganda. The Martians will never have a chance because there's just too many Earthers they can send meat waves and not care about the losses. Martians could only win if they acted like Belters and dropped rocks plus nuked Earth until its dead.
>>220059524are we ... the jeets of the sollar systerm, bros???
>>220059685There are like 40 billion humans at that point. Lots of jeets and chinese, of course. And not enough jobs, so billions sit around just collecting a basic income with nothing to do.
>>220057614>>makes the dumbest fucking retard decision>>somehow everything goes well cos hes like Space Jesus or something and can do no wrongTbf these are features of his character. The Expanse was supossed to be a tabletop game, each of the crew was a class, and Holden is supposed to be their paladin in shining white armor. They couldn't secure funds for the game, so they wrote the books instead. And in the series, there's plenty of times when he (and the crew) make the 'right' decision, only to backfire laterStrait is just a shitty actor and takes himself waaay too seriously
>>220041782>>220042528>Q2 2027Man I thought this was coming out, like, soonish
>>220060031Role-playing game* They actually made it later thanks to the success of the books and show. Sadly it's based on the books so Mars has an incredibly ugly flag.
>>220057641Earth had a three-to-one advantage in ships and it turns out that training in 1G isn't even comparable to growing up and living in 1G your entire life.
>>220060250don't worry, they'll make the flag more accurate soon enough
What the FUCK?The same people are making another sci-fi by the same authors for the same streamer?WHY NOT FINISH THE EXPANSE YOU FUCKS
>>220060791see >>220038747
>>220060791Expanse has a looong time skip after season six.>>220060639DELETE THIS>>220060621But the UN and Martians kept repeating how much better the Martian ships were and how dangerous stealth tech is. I guess admiral Souther was just that good.
wtf is this? i keep sseeing it recommended when i open my Stremio, but never bothered watching it.is it worth it?
>>220060891The Martian ships were pretty damn good. Just a small fleet of them gave the Belters a shot. And The Rocinante is able to hold its own against way larger ships. The Martians were supposed to have a ton of those class of ships carried by Donnagers
>>220060902They're short five minute vignettes that fit between each of the season six episodes. Amazon had them made as little add-ons between episodes to watch on their streaming service
>>220060972The Free Navy still fled to the ring the moment they lost their rock throwing capabilities. But ye, the Rocci is amazing, what a fucking ship.
>>220060870>>220060891The pessimist in me doesn't want to wait 30 years for the Expanse to be finishedThe optimist in me says well at least it looks like they still have a good relationship with Amazonseriously though they should be milking the shit out of this franchise with spinoffs like GoT is doingspeaking of, not many people know the Expanse's authors were ghostwriters for that fat bastard GRRM
>>220061009Yup, they were never given enough to actually win. The Laconians used them as a useful distraction then discarded them. Even if Marco had won, he'd only retain power for little while until Laconia returned.
>>220061046I don't think it'll take 30 years. They're all still good friends which is nice to see
>>220061146
>Yeah, that's me, Thomas Jane, I play Miller and I like to walk around conventions bare foot
They really ghosted the jeet IRL lmao
>>220061337I need Bobbie to sit on my face 24/7
>>220061046>30 yearsi-i dont think Mommysarala will survive that...
>>220061400I think she dies during the timeskip anyway. The main crew are like 60-70 yrs old at the start of the next book
>>220061422yeah, but they all take some anti-aging drugs so they are basically the same
>>220061442Not really, they all act more like old folk that are pretty tired of conflict. Holden has calmed down from his tilting at wildmills crap and just wants to retire to a peaceful life with Naomi
>>220061400think she's still stripping?
>>220061507i mean physically, it wont be an issue to cast the same actors in like 5 years without having to age them with shitty makeup or cgi, is the point
Intercourse with Drummer, if you know what I mean
>Mommysarala's husband suddenly got switched from an old grandpa Jeet to a bald Jew without anyone even commenting on thatI presume it was issue with recasting the actor obviously, but it felt so weird, i watched like 5 episodes of that season before realizing that was supposed to be the husband
>>220061586>when you're too rough on your belter gf and break her hips>she still comes back for more while wearing an exoskeleton
>>220061650Ye, that was real whiplash. It was also silly that her husband suddenly became uncomfortable with Cristjen's election campaign tactics even though she's been torturing and murdering Belters for decades.
For me, it's Wei. She didn't need to die
>>220056696>>220056744>>220056908are you niggas completely fucking retarded? Fucking 'mind reading' jesus christ. Amos is a killer who came up the hard way and recognises those traits in others.
>>220061123who are Laconians?
>>220062627the settler niggas in the ayy lmao words
Many of the characters in the books are quite different from the show. Such as Ashford. In the books, he's pretty dumb, cowardly and a clear antagonist. He's only in the third book and rightfully removed afterwards. The show made him awesome. BookMurtry is also very different. He's shown to have come there because he can enforce an iron hand, kill people with impunity, and be as brutal as he wants. He wants to torture, kill and/or enslave the Belters on that planet. The ShowMurtry is not depicted that way and actually shown to be in the right most of the time. But since the story is mostly following the books, it still keeps having the Rocinante crew be supremely hostile towards him since they're reacting more to his book depiction. It's funny since he's also confused why they hate him in the show.
>>220029724Only redditors type a declarative sentence with a question mark. Go back, faggot.
>>220062627They are the Martians that made a secret plan to steal a bunch of Martian ships and weapons then steal one of the ring gates and the systems beyond. They armed the Marco faction of the Belters with ships and stealth technology so they could start a war as a distraction. This helped that group of Martians disappear mostly unnoticed until it was too late. Bobby and Alex got wind something was happening and almost got killed over it. They named their new planet Laconia in reference to the ancient Laconians aka Spartans. Duarte chose that system since it had advanced alien shipyards still in orbit of one of the worlds so he stole the protomolecule and Cortazar to try and activate them. In season 6, those little kids are exploring Laconia and playing with the strange alien dogs.
>>220062766are those dogs important in the book? kinda weird they had this whole fucking pet cemetery plot line in the last season without anything really happening to it?shit got resurrected and no one cares?
>>220062811 Yes. They're an example of the old builder technology. The builders made things that last, so the dogs are still around all that time later. They just do their intended purpose and can't really question it. The dogs are repair drones. They just seek out damaged stuff and fix it, which is using protomolecule technology. So they can bring things back to life, but they're fundamentally changed now with protomolecule. The Builder aliens are a hivemind, so anything that gets fixed is connected to the hive in a way. The kids are connected and eventually drawn to that hive. When other people later die and get fixed by the dogs, they are also connected. The know things they shouldn't, and don't know how. They desire to go to the hive but don't know why. The scientists experiment on them trying to see if they can contact the Builders, and it gets super addictive to the kids. They start getting pissed off if the scientists disconnect them.
>>220062530ever been checked for autism? you should get on that.
>>220062766oooh, makes sense. Shame the show died
>>220057641>>220060891To be fair to the Mickeys, they were out numbered five-to-one at the start of the war, and were being led by a fighting admirals like Souther. By the time they were drawing up defensive lines on Saturn, they had whittled the UN down to a three-to-one advantage. It had the UN so rattled that they were forced to try a first strike on the Martian orbital platforms and unleashing the hybrids on Mars.The fact that Mars lasted as long as they did against those kinds of numbers means that they were some cutting edge, pipe hitting dusters.
>>220063150Seeing scenes like that hit harder than other scifi shows to me. It would be so awesome to see humans spread throughout the solar system and overcoming the challenges over living in space. They took centuries to painstakingly build all that stuff out here. And some assholes are always just chomping at the bit to start a war which will immediately destroy it all. Then take decades or centuries to rebuild. The Earth itself was going to take forever to recover even.
So, I recently watched finished this and now I feel empty, cos I have nothing to watchIm usually not that into all those sci-fi shows, never got hooked on shit like Star Trek, etc, but this I lovedI like sci-fi games tho, love shit like Mass Effect, maybe thats why I liked this, it really reminded me of that, without the cool ayy lmaosAnyway, I need something else to watch now in similar vein.I have in my backlog Battlestar Galactica and Firefly, ive heard those are similar and people usually hyped them, but other recommendations are welcome too
>>220037446>perfect casting>actress doesn't get fit for the role
>>220063533>without the cool ayy lmaosYou should check out the final three books. As audiobooks, they're also great. And they have the conclusion to the alien plot line you're wanting.
>>220062254>Listen Chrisjen, I've supported you through thick and thin. >When the OPA was lodging complains about you hooking those bligger terrorists, you came home, rode the fuck out of me, while describing how the kids body was falling apart. Fattest nut I ever busted. >But saying mean things in a debate? I can't cosign that behavior, love.
>>220061146Holden's expressions make more sense when you realize Steven Strait is apparently blind as a bat without glasses and he didn't wear contacts on set. He couldn't see shit.
>>220063727yeah yeah, i know, apparently it becomes even more mass effect eventually, with all the ancient ayy tech and shit, but ive also heard that the last 3 books suck major dick, so dunnoand also, by "cool ayy lmaos", i mostly mean fuckable, so it wont be the same...
>>220063783I liked seeing him ride the Vomit Comet. The astronauts invited him to take a flight on their airplane that simulates floating in zero gravity. He made several youtube videos about it.
>>220062766Laconia also has the right chemistry for terran life, no need to import food from space
>>220063726>Bobbie when she hears people complaining
>>220063783>>220063886I like the guy. Hes not bad looking, he has SOME charisma, prolly is a cool dude too irlbut hes just such a fucking dogshit actor and it really doesnt help that Holden's character himself is fucking annoying and retarded
>>220063938giwtwm
>>220063801They don't suck. They're pretty good. They story has necessarily moved on decades into the future to the next interesting conflict. It's exploring how humanity has been living with all those 1300 new star systems, many still can't live on their own yet without Earth, and all have to still travel through the ring space. That travel could still cause trouble with the red aliens if they don't follow the rules. And they're still dealing with alien artifacts and technology on the various planets, with people trying to wake them up without really understanding them. Or those like Duarte who thinks he can dominate them and become an immortal God Emperor like in Dune.
>>220063801>but ive also heard that the last 3 books suck major dickyou've been lied to. they're the past part of the whole dogshit series because they actually have the payoff.
>>220064181>pastbest. don't know what happened there

wait, mars has two moons, right?why did they have like 8 on their flag in the show and alex got buttmad when amus deleted one from the ship after it got destroyed?
>>220065568They're living inside an asteroid and trying to fit as many people as possible. So yeah, it would be cramped.
>>220065604Mars has two moons in reality: Phobos and Deimos. Deimos got nuked and broke apart into a bunch of smaller pieces so Amos was mocking it by drawing many more moons. Alex and Bobbie both got upset about it.
>>220065604The og flag had two moons for phobos and deimos, Amos added the others to symbolize the debris left by the one that got blown up.
>>220029637Where does Drummer succeed where other girlboss characters fail?
>>220065868Drummer's not a girlboss. She's not perfect nor the best at everything. She's just in the leadership and part of a team. She has a temper and can be harsh, but she still listens to others and follows the chain of command.
>>220065868I think her being a girlboss is highly arguable, but even if you do think she's a girlboss, there are a few things that make her a likeable character. A) She's hot. In a show with a lot of weird looking people, that matters. B) She's allowed to have blind spots and moments of emotional vulnerability which humanize her, and make her feel like a real person. She doesn't know everything, she's allowed to cry, and feel helpless, and to be irrationally angry, and the show doesn't excuse these moments, or frame them as correct, but uses them as chances for character development.C) She never has the small dick energy of other girlbosses where the objective very obviously to tear down traditionally masculine institutions rather than uplift women. One of her defining character traits is her devotion to a man who she believes offers the best future for her and her people. In WOKE(tm) shows, that would never be allowed, as a woman willingly submitting to a man is a holdover of patriarchy which must be stopped.

>>220063533I've unironically got hooked into Star Trek after finishing up The Expanse. You miss a lot of the "hard" sci-fi stuff, sure, but nothing feels too "over the top" in-universe since there's always technobabble to explain things.I'd recommend giving Deep Space Nine a shot - rather than the episodic, weekly sci-fi story with a moral message that the typical Trek series go for, DS9 leans more in to an overarching, developing story, and with a lot more interpersonal conflicts between various groups and species. Between that, and the main setting being on a station complete with a bar where various cultures mingle, I'd say it's one of the least traditionally "Trek"-like shows.>I like sci-fi games tho, love shit like Mass EffectI'd give Babylon 5 a shot as well. Similar in many ways to DS9, I'd say B5 comes the closest to feeling like a Mass Effect show, with the B5 station itself being similar to the Citadel where there are ambassadors from various species and, similarly, conflicts between them all as well.
>>220065831>>220065775oh right, that makes sense, guess i misremembered him scraping off something
>>220067063>I've unironically got hooked into Star Trekeh.i mean, im sure its good, there must be a reason why it has so many fans, i just cant get into it, precisely to an extend cos of the fanbase, they are all just such a bunch of annoying fucking dorksalso, isnt that shit being on for like literally 60 years? where do you even start with it at this point?ive heard about ds9, thats also on my list, along battlestar galactica and firedly, might eventually come around watching that too
>>220067478>ive heard about ds9, thats also on my list, along battlestar galactica and firedly, might eventually come around watching that tooi meant babylon 5*
>>220065868to add to what the other anons said, she's also in a culture and profession where her harsh attitude makes sense so it doesn't come off as compensating for something
>>220067063>>220067478Funny to see zooms talk about Star Trek this way. > Babylon 5Definitely one of the few sci fi shows of that era that managed to write a full series arc and actually stick the landing. They can't even do that now when everyone is trying to. > isnt that shit being on for like literally 60 years? where do you even start with it at this point?It's episodic TV you don't really need to start from the beginning. TNG will be the easiest entry and probably season 2 or 3. There are episode guides covering what you should watch and can skip. You could jump straight to DS9 but will miss a lot of context.
>>220029637this show was the best this girl ever looked and will ever look
>>220067478>also, isnt that shit being on for like literally 60 years? where do you even start with it at this point?look up an episode guide to the original series and watch the good/important episodesif you want a more traditional long-running episodic show, watch TNG
Does the game have a chance in hell at being good?
>>220067597>Funny to see zooms talk about Star Trek this way.im 34 you little shitwell ill def give babylon 5 a watch eventually, might try some start trek one day i guess, if im day starved on sci-fi slop, aside for vidya and books >>220067692will have that in mind
>>220067748have you played any other owlkek game?expect>bugs, so many bugs>overwrought rpg build autism for no reason>one good romance and five humiliation rituals>two kino companions, two cringe ones, and a bunch of boring ones>polish and refinement of the game goes down the toilet 1/3 of the way through>choice and consequence that's fairly detailed but leads to nonsensical endings because even flags get buggedit will still be the closest thing the industry has to a ME1 or KotOR successor
>>220067748Yeah, sure. It's still a whole year away. It looks okay, but kinda janky right now, as expected of Owlcat. Their writers usually do well (with some wild deviations in both directions) but I reckon Alcon (studio of the Expanse) is helping with that so the story should be solid. I mean they revealed the Aryan queen of the crew and she is already popular.
>>220067748I think it looks like it'll be plenty of fun. I'm not expecting perfection though.
>>220068168Miranda bros, we are *so* back.
>>220068548What is it with the ice queen with the heart of gold archetype that makes me love it so much?
>>220068640it's both "gap moe" and peak female performanceyou don't want just an ice queen because women should be able to be nurturing, and you don't want just an emotional soft girl because then you have to handle every single problem yourself
>>220068168that looks like fucking aislop
>>220068917it is, but the character is from the game
>>220069013she's got the legs that go all the way up
>>220069005isnt owclat a relatively tiny bumfuck russian studio that usually makes "enthusiast" jank?i feel like with trailers like this, a lot of people will be disappointed, they dont have the budget nor the know-how to deliver the next mass effect, which seems a lot of people think this is going to be
>>220069025and the ass you wanna do lines off of
>>220069051owlcat has grown a lot as a studio and publisher and this game will be in UE5 so while I doubt it will be polished I think the parts of it that work will look impressive
>>220069089eh, well seeill paly it anyway, and i more or less know what to expect, but im sure a lot of people will be disappointed and seethe at the game when it out

>>220037987The next “trilogy” after Marco is a 25 year time jump to the future
>hey peaches
>>220038747There's no reason they couldn't just make the jump like 5 years or so.
>>220037987Technically, he did not buy the rights to it. Alcon has the rights. Amazon was just funding production.>Is Bezos retarded?Yes. Case in point: Lawd dem Rangz o'da POWWAAAA cost him like 1.5 billion dollars at this point

>i don't feel so good
the pic related is so ugly, I can't stand a re-watch of this series
>>220070317I think she's kinda hot, but she's a bad actress and her character ruins the show.
>>220070429>her character ruins the showand then they introduce his son and ex
>>220070153Here's a better version beratna
>character is literally a faggot>name him AnusB R A V O GEORGE R R MARTIN, B R A V O
>>220069025We could go higher
>>220070317Her not being fatalready already makes her attractive, at least for a black
>>220070429I think she's fine and that was more a show runner problem. The character is way better in the books. She actually comes across as sweet, playful, and intelligent. The show turned up Naomi's irritability way too high in the first couple seasons. They made her bitchy for no reason and someone you don't want to be around. Then gave her too much screentime in 5. That arc was important, but they went too hard on it. When I read the books, I like her a lot
>>220062689Him commenting on it is fucking hilarious.

Good thread
>>220072502I need Monica gf
>>220073109What was Mommica thinking here
>>220073510>Holden, I NEED that story! Let me suck your dick already, so I can get a little scoop of news!
>>220072472why do mass fagfect fans try to attach themselves to everything else that's sci-fi?
>>220063938She looked retarded like a fat mom cosplaying a soldier with dads friends. Why not at least get some muscles SOME fucking muscles when you shown as super strong and arm-wrestling men easily?
>>220062811I remain of the opinion that they should've done that as flashbacks in later seasons instead of wasting time o the Laconia stuff in season 6.
>>220077703I appreciate that they did it. Since they shortened the season and canceled anything further for an indefinite amount of time, at least they gave the audience reason to pick up the books and see the ending. Even with that, so many of you dorks think that was just random nonsense, there's nothing else, and nothing was planned. Like this is just some jj abrams crap. There's no guarantee they'll ever made the final three, so it's some payoff to get a tiny taste of the alien stuff everyone was wanting to see since the start
>>220068548>Liking Miranda>Liking Mass Effect 2 in general
>>220077898If you twist my arm I'll say my issue with it is more with the presentation and what they showed than the idea of showing it to begin with. That's why I feel it was a waste, because what they showed didn't really set up the Laconia storyline besides reinforcing what the repair drones can do and Duarte's vision for Laconia; the latter of which we got at the end of season 5.Honestly I would've rather them intertwined it with the Free Navy conflict were we see them use the stick moons to build the railguns for Inaros, since that would better inform the audience of how the Laconia plot would play out.
>>220077110The Expanse team partnering with Spacedock to do the lore videos on the ships was one of the most based things the studio did. The Morgaina looks better though imo.
>>220075740Nah mate, warhammerbabies are the usual suspects for that
>>220081017Hearsay!
>>220077110>>220078757All he MCRN ship designs look so fucking good, art direction was on point for them
>>220085880For me they prove you can have both interestingly designed ships that are also grounded in reality without having to resort to "NASApunk" designs.
>>220029637Is it true they're doing the show again or something? For sure it won't be good, but that's a curious development regardless
>>220078757>>220085880Still funny that art wants to always portray them flying left or right, horizontally. It's the generic soft scifi trope treating them like ocean ships. An xray would show everyone onboard sideways though kek. I love that they're set up like buildings and can take advantage of engine thrust to be held "down" to the deck.
>>220086231It's just a shame the deck design in the show didn't really reflect that.
How does Earth have such a massive population when we're currently looking at below replacement birth-rates across the world?
>>220086394They tried. They are constantly climbing up and down ladders. Each deck is pretty small. Loved the scenes where the ships are changing course and people get tossed around or when all the ships get stopped in the slowzone and everyone dies
>>220086231I think that's mostly because they fit better on the screen that way
>>220086495For sure, but it feels like either the layout would be too constricting for filming, or they needed to have hallways for said filming instead of hammering home the verticality of the ships. It's only really season 6 that shows that during the seizure of the Azure Dragon when Boobie jumps down to the lower deck to take the bomb.
Is Cara a good actress and is there anything else that she's in that I should watch?
>>220086930She was in star trek strange new worlds i think, haven't seen it so idk if it's any good
>>220087157You sure you're not confusing her with Christina Ching Chong?
>>220057718>they haven't done any voice acting besides this missionWell, that's the thing. Voice acting, writing and facial animations in this mission are bargain bin tier.So far it looks they care more about chasing mass effect downies.
>>220059090>realistic sci fi>forgets that people anywhere with a telescope could spy on you
>>220087809>not realizing how fucking enormous space is
>>220087848>not realizing how powerful telescopes areSorry sweetie. There is no stealth in space.
>>220087848If there's any infrared emissions they are very easy to spot.Stealth doesn't work in space.
>>220087883>If there's any infrared emissionsAnd there would be, unless you want the crew/electronics to be cooked
