The sun rises and you walk into your apartment wearing the same clothes you had on the night before. Your roommate asks"Netflix and chill?". You nod. "How was it?", they ask. "It...it...was earth shattering" you reply with the face of someone who genuinely feels like life will never be the same. "Holy shit! Was the sex that good?!?" asks you roommate. As you shake your head you answer, "no sex". Bewildered your roommate asks, "No sex?!? Then what the hell did you guys do all night that's left you like this?". In a distant voice you say, "we binged Arcane".

Do you need to know anything about League of Legends for Arcane?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Not at all, LoL's lore gets retconned so often that Arcane is basically it's own thing but with borrowed ideas.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

No. It's beautiful all on its own.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Can confirm other opinions:

  • Did not know anything about League
  • Enjoyed Arcane

The game and the show aren't really related at all. AFAIK, if you've played the game, you just get to be like "Oh hey that's one of the characters you can choose" once in awhile... But there's no overlapping plot or anything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

It has overlapping plot in the same way Overwatch does. Technically the characters all have backgrounds, and that's what Arcane shows some of. The game may use that to give character to the heroes, but the game itself doesn't really add anything to it. The game is probably improved by the existence of the show (I assume, I never cared for it I'm general), but the show really doesn't depend on the game.

(Technically I think there are multiple games in this universe now. I can't tell you much more, but I think there's an action game with some pirate character at least. That may have more story, but it doesn't matter for Arcane.)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Nope. It's great.

If you like muscly aggressive women it's AMAZING.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I've never played the game, it was a couple episodes in that I noticed that it was based on an exiting IP rather than being completely new.

This actress is super beautiful, but in this pic she looks like Gollum.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (2 children)

She switches between Gollum and pretty a lot. But I don't mind, it honestly adds to the show.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Stupid sexy gollum..

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Honestly, that's half the vibe of character creation in Fallout games too. Perfect casting tbh

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

She has giant eyes. That's honestly something I really like about her, but yeah it sometimes turns into Gollum in some pictures.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Whilst I don't agree with that (but I do like ppl making weird faces, eg the sort Danielle Panabaker is constantly making), ... I almost had to check who the actress is or did just Lizzy Caplan age backwards:

Or Natalie Morales (just as an association):

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Dude what. Still beautiful...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Stupid sexy Gollum.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (5 children)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thats disgusting, where did you even find that? Like, which website specifically?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Whatever you do absolutely stay clear of & never ever visit www.LordOfMyGollumsCockRing.uwu, it's just full of AI porn (but follow my socials to get a discount code).

Instead contact you local Tolkien support group (if you are not a member yet: www.TolkiensFurries.cum/about/locatons).

Do you wanna make my cock explode now?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Waterfall on a loop & chill (with popcorn).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't see the problem, you just have sex while watching a show!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Doggy style so you can both face the TV.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

So we can both watch X-Files

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

After all, you and me baby? Ain't nothin' but mammals.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Blah blah Discovery Channel

So put your hands down my pants and I'll bet you'll feel nuts

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Yes I'm Siskel yes I'm Ebert and you're getting two thumbs up

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (2 children)

This performance is all over the place, let's start it over from the top:

Haha, well now, we call this the act of mating. But there are several other very important differences between human beings and animals that you should know about.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Or of course the WoW parody:

Haha, well now, we call this the act of gaming. But there are several other very important differences between real people and pixels that you should know about.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Un tss un tss…

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'd appreciate your input

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sweat baby, sweat baby, sex is a Texas drought

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Me and you do the kind of things that only Prince would sing about

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

So put your hands down my pants and I'll bet you'll feel nuts

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (10 children)

For people who have watched the show is it good or bad ?

I don't know if I want to watch it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

I've played every fallout including Tactics. I enjoy good drama. The lore blips don't really matter to me as drama is about people interacting based on their circumstances and relationships, not about whether a specific numbered year matches up to another specific numbered year in a fictional universe. For the purposes of what makes drama work I would say it was a 7/10. Maybe a 7.5 because it had cool fallout stuff in it.

I thought it was a 8/10, and I played all the games. Lore seems accurate.

The fallout show is liked because it plays into the male fantasy Just like the games
