Wild, I watched my wife playing assassins creed last night while holding the baby, this machine was in the game
Never seen it before and now twice in a row.
Damn Baader-Meinhof
Maybe you should help her with the baby so she can game.
Nah if i hold the baby while she games it’s to easy for her, she needs an extra difficulty level /s
I was holding the baby. Probably could have worded it better
I like how this ended out, though… Well played
That’s acrobatic level of gaming but I guess ass ass creed these days plays probably like a Toys R us
It is usually what she’s doing when i get home from work. As for the decline of AC this is a 360 one she’s playing, I beleive brotherhood.
Still very average games in my opinion but she loves them and I enjoy watching her play as she rolls into the missions saying “ohh I remember this, I hated this”
Juggling the boy while gaming until I have a shower and take him so she can rest.
I just for flashbacks, it’s actually not that hard when they’re tiny. Enjoy these times and hope your boy stays safe
ahhh sheet hahaha
Probably never see it again either
I’ve seen this thing at least 500 times in my life, not sure how folks haven’t seen it as many times. Did you all not spend hours pouring over Da Vinci’s drawings as a kid? As a teen? As a young adult? Yesterday?
Nah, but i did buy a cool book you might be interested in if you like that kind of thing.
The books all illustrated on different survival things.
I bought it and inscribed it for my son hoping he learns from it but never needs it.
I’m sorry for your loss
My loss?
Your son with so much promise that no longer needs to survive, my condolences
He would have loved battle bots.
Given a translator, can you even imagine Leonardo da Vinci and Hideo Kojima in a room together?
A weapon to surpass Metal Gear…
Wood gear
Solid
Surpass metal gear?
No, because Da Vinci died in 1519, whereas Kojima was born in 1963.
Yeah, hence “a translator”. You didn’t think I meant from Renaissance-era Italian to modern Japanese, did you? No one person could probably do that. I meant a translator from this plane to the next.
My dude the other guy was being facetious…
So was I. “Yes, and”, as we say in improv. (I’ve never done improv.)
Yes and me either
Welcome back Da Vinci
Leonardo’s was literally just running a copy of Besiege 24/7 in his brain, wasn’t he?
I love he was inventive enough to design a tank a couple centuries before anyone actually built one, but couldn’t piece together a better idea for aiming in any direction than “cannons pointed in every conceivable direction.”
That’s how ship cannons worked too, at the time. Powerful but heavy to move, slow to reload, not very accurate… having more of them was the only way to have sustained firepower.
But Leonardo also left a lot of these sketches that look less like actual projects and more like the superhero fantasies of an extremely gifted six years old. “And look, this shit has cannons… Cannons EVERYWHERE! Bam! Kapow!”. I guess it’s what happens when you’re so great at drawing that even the doodles you do when bored look like masterpieces.
Old man Da Vinci furiously scribbling while also delivering the overexcited stream-of-consciousness babble of a little kid with his favorite thing
They used muzzle loaded cannons at his time, so it makes sense. It’s not only for direction, but for faster rate of fire.
Why shoot at one target when you can shoot at 30? (as long as they’re encircling the machine in a nicely spaced out, orderly fashion…)
Yeah, he designed these things for Sforza because designing war machines pays money.
War. War never changes.
(Walks into the diatance)
Thank you now I understand I thought he liked slaughter?
Its possible he did. People had different sensibilities 500 years ago.
WRONG, DUM DUM (assuming for the moment the intentional fallacy doesn’t exist)
“Men fight wars and destroy everything around them. The earth should open and swallow them up. He who does not value life does not deserve it. Never destroy another life through rage, or through malice.” -Da Vinci in his personal notes
Un Thank you then now we don’t know again
Not a problem. I’m here to help and offer more ambiguity any time you need it. Just DM me.
Her smile could mean good they are getting slaughtered nobody can know yet
Imagine paying for a weapon design only to end up with two incomplete designs and one being a stupid flying thing that will never work and a bunch of naked people pictures that are at least finished, but kind of useless because doctors continued to just poison people anyway
He is one of my favorite historical figures, but he must have been absolutely infuriating to deal with.
I bet he had ADD with all those hobbies he collected.
Was genuinely fun to drive and use on Assassin’s Creed.
It must have been one of the Ezio ones, right? I do not recall this machine from the games.
Edit: Brotherhood apparently. I still do not recall, so maybe they were optional and I missed out or it just has been too long. Maybe it’s time for a replay.
I too have dozens of unfinished projects, so me and Leo are basically the same. /s
It’s a panzer.
If only we could have gotten Da Vinci and the Hussites together in order to build a wooden mech covered in cannons.
Best i cam do is an orange shit and his goons threatening immigrants and kids.
The machina magnifica!
No don’t do this. You’re giving gaijin ideas.
It’ll be the next tank on Warthunder, under the Italian tech tree.
Obviously a doomsday-a-machine
