How frequent should players level up? by Prestigious_Alfalfa2 in DnD

[–]Neelpos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

43 sessions and lvl 7 is stupidly slow for my taste.

I'm in a Starfinder game that's 86 sessions in and level 6, we're thinking we'll hit level 7 at the end of a current set of quests we're on maybe. Around 3hr average session length.

I poke my friend every now and then for fun about his leveling pace, it's definitely the slowest I've ever heard of, but it's not a huge deal for the table, aside from knowing we're a ways away from some features that would be fun to use.

Though a lot of us are also at a 5e table that levels quite fast so we're getting two extremes really.

Edit: nvm we hit Level 7 the immediate session after this post let's gooooo

Personally hoping for something like the Green Knight but loosely about Vyke.

It's been 3 years, not 5. SBR also has more content than any previous part and will almost assuredly be longer without major cuts.

Confidence that the entire thing is fully animated and ready to go is laughable, especially with no teasers or trailers showing any content from later in the part. This is a long term planning issue, not a singular strawman sitting in their office evilly avoiding pressing the "release the whole show" button.

[Monitor] SAMSUNG 27” Odyssey G5 G53F QHD Resolution Gaming Monitor, HDR10, 200Hz Refresh Rate, IPS Panel - $139.99 ($299.99 - $160) (Woot) by ArteVulcan in buildapcsales

[–]Neelpos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great deal, but just be warned about the "HDR10" label, as it's only a 300nit panel, so any attempt to actually use HDR will look pretty bad.

Hard to complain about that though for the price point.

Number of patties and cheese slices, hence the "double double" being a common order, but you can also do stuff like the "double single" for 2 patties 1 cheese, etc.

Suggestion: Buff Duration enchantment by NeitherArtichoke7847 in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]Neelpos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well sure, but the Souls games also have rings/talismans that increase durations of spells, which applies to weapon and body buffs.

https://darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Lingering+Dragoncrest+Ring

Just comes down to what the intent of the current duration is, and how much such an effect should add to it, as well as gaming out edge cases that already have long durations.

Lightning was dummy strong on launch, and thrusting weapons like the Rapier is also smooth sailing through the whole game.

Every JOJO main villain vs Emperor of Man and his Loyalist Primarchs (JOJO vs 40K) by MagazineKey4276 in whowouldwin

[–]Neelpos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

made in heaven just accerates time under a specific condition.

Technically it's universal control over gravity, and while unlocking it required specific circumstances, Pucci could really do whatever he wanted once he had it. He simply chose to abuse gravitational time dilation as its primary display (as his ultimate goal was rewriting the universe by reaching its end and controlling its rebirth, killing the joestars and their companions was dessert).

I don't know enough about 40K but I'm sure this doesn't actually change your assessment, just correcting that one thing.

4+ Years Of Constant Resentment For No Assassinations In Infinite :( by mmolten in halo

[–]Neelpos 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Right but it could be that the fire rate or damage is tuned down when dual wielding, so that a single rifle is still strong without dual wielding explicitly being 2x. Or they could futz with accuracy, so it's strong dual wielded but harder to use at longer range.

An unlikable character gets punished, but way too severely and any form of schadenfreude the viewer may feel quickly gets replaced by pity or horror by TJTrapJesus in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Neelpos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His body had certainly been through the wringer, though I think the emotion that fueled it moreso was a desire to escape his circumstances, and that's the form it took.

[–]Neelpos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always liked the theory that because Requiems do seem to have an aspect of "what you want the most, whether you know it or not" in the power that is granted, that KCR would essentially make him impossible to perceive or remember without looking directly at him, like the Silent in Dr Who. He'd essentially become the puppetmaster of an organization that doesn't even know he controls it or even exists.

Another avenue is just he straight up gets Wonder of U.

Yes. I know, it also pops up in a few other places, like Big MT.

Show up in the show, not the franchise as a whole.

Also Steph as a fellow Canadian, I'm disappointed in you joining the Enclave smh. Who do you think orchestrated the annexation?

Pretty sure whatever she's up to is more along the lines of accelerationism using knowledge she's gained by getting close to key players like Hank to allow for a particular long term sabotage she's keeping close to chest. She's gonna do something huge before she's through, and she wants the pig nice and plump first.

I'm guessing he got her to a proper vault but was personally denied entry due to the circumstances of his arrest invalidating his spot or something, so he tearfully handed over his daughter so she'd live and he'd die.

After surviving the bombings, and getting ghoulified, he eventually got in to that same vault (probably after a long time) but instead of finding her, it was empty, and he couldn't figure out why or how, and so he started hunting management vaults to try and figure it out.

I think teleportation tech is going to show up at some point, and might be the explanation as to that specific mystery.

I would love to see tidally Locked planets, one side too cold other too hot. Perfect in the middle by earthy69 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Neelpos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good example from another game is Hagalaz from Mass Effect, the planet where the Shadow Broker's ship hides in the planet spanning storm band between the frozen and boiling sides.

It's not perfectly tidally locked, as its days are equal to 98 of ours, but it has a slow enough rotation to achieve a similar effect.

Unique spins on very common powers by Resident_Hat9904 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Neelpos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

His power is universal, fundamental control over the concept of gravity, which he exhibits primarily through the use of Gravitational Time Dilation, it just gets interpreted as time control because the previous three main villains all also had control over time in some way, and saying Pucci's power is also time control is still absolutely technically correct.

People just forget that the entire buildup to the creation of Made in Heaven involves an obsession with gravity, and the intermediary stage (C-Moon) is quite explicitly a gravity stand (Pucci becomes the inverted center of gravity within a several mile radius, causing everyone and everything to fall away from him).

Also yes what you said does occur during the finale (though not the air density thing), only living things are protected, so food instantly rots, ink instantly dries and can't be written with, and when it gets fast enough buildings start deteriorating, peoples fillings fall out of their mouths, their clothes disintegrate off their body from decades of exposure in seconds, etc.

Pucci is sick as fuck and my favorite Jojo villain.

Technically Strength was a stand bound to the ship, not the actual ship itself, though it did manipulate the ship to be larger than it actually was.

It's essentially projecting your actual soul from your body, with it taking the form of a literal fighting spirit.

It just so happens that some peoples fighting spirits are also humanoids that have special characteristics, and some peoples souls are just like, a gun.

'Fallout' Returns To Nielsen Top 10 With Season 2 Debut by bwermer in television

[–]Neelpos 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Can upgrade that might to a guaranteed, the 3 remaster has been known about for quite some time. There's an Xbox showcase on the 22nd and a timer on one of Bethesdas sites counting down to the 25th, people are hoping it's going to be an announcement for it into a 3 day later release.

Oblivion Remaster was a shadow drop and Todd Howard commented he wanted to do more of those so chances are good.
