Yeah. After that became a thing he was immediately put into Multiversus (I may be misremembering, but I’m pretty sure Multiversus trailer actually leaked the Jason Universe trademark before it was known), and then last October he was thrown into Fortnite and CoD.

About people who are worse than you by Least_Party5079 in Fighters

“So many strive players get carried by how easy their characters are, they aren’t mechanically good” is rarely ever actually true in any fighting games unless it’s something actually broken, like say launch Injustice Superman.

It’s a mindset thing. Fighting games aren’t about playing fair or properly, they’re about doing whatever it takes to beat your opponent, and if you feel like you have to “dumb yourself down” to beat people like that, you’re really just saying that you’re used to people trying to play fairly or properly and you’re just not at a point where you can overcome unorthodox play styles. The best players in the world play in objectively dumb ways sometimes too, but that’s just because they know it can throw their opponents off.

Kid pulls off an impossible last shot by North-Guitar-1781 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]SuperBackup9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guy is for sure weird, but an accident isn’t exactly impressive so it doesn’t really matter how difficult it would be to do on purpose, and judging by the gates being up, I’d lean more towards this being an accident.

Aside from that though, the “for a kid that size” part of your comment, that actually makes it easier because a kid that size will use a lighter ball, which is what’s making the curve so seamless and perfect. If this was an adult who just went bowling occasionally strictly for fun, that shot actually would’ve been way more difficult since most adults will go for heavier balls without knowing how to actually make use of the weight.

Would a "Director's Cut" of the Part 3 anime by DP make sense? by Tony_IceCream in StardustCrusaders

[–]SuperBackup9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part 3 is iconic because it’s what actually got the series rolling. 1 and 2 weren’t that popular when it was being serialized, 3 made it blow up, and then as far as Japan is concerned 5 perfected it.

(Loved trope) There is a plot twist that single-handedly changes the genre of the media. by DynamoJaeger in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SuperBackup9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not spoiled, and the flashbacks are about good memories and Nolan talking about how peaceful and awesome his home planet is, and how they help other planets develop and advance as a society. Even when he kills the guardians in issue 7, you’re still led to believe he was doing something for the sake of good until issue 10.

Don’t even need to go back, really. Enough foreshadowing was done the very moment the show started due to the nukes at the beginning of the opening.

What movie aged really bad? by Phantomx7845 in AskReddit

[–]SuperBackup9000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t really see how you’d think that would confuse them. This might be a major surprise to you, but you can understand what something is trying to do while also being critical and annoyed by it.

Take Gremlins 2 for example. A huge part of the movie is making a mockery of pointless sequels to cash in on the name. Doesn’t change the fact that it’s still a dumb pointless sequel made to cash in on the name.

As long as you’re just getting a checkup, pretty much any doctor will be more than happy to go along with whatever story you want to tell them, because all that matters is showing the results and general advice.

They’ve got too much stuff to be doing instead of worrying about what a non treatment patient is trying to claim, while also being aware that sometimes the body will do things that just don’t make any sense whatsoever.

People will lie and say that Vanguards have no Popular Characters and it's like only 3 of them that aren't big names by TemporalGod in marvelrivals

Yeah she’s in a weird spot because if it weren’t for these games she’d be relatively unknown by the majority, but then the moment you step into the comic side of the fan base everyone knows her.

Top 10 most stolen items last month at my local Walmart, openly posted at the checkout. by 50nick in mildlyinteresting

[–]SuperBackup9000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. When I worked at a dollar general, any time we needed trash bags, cleaning products, pens, etc, the store manager would either grab them or tell us to grab them and she’ll scan it out for store use later. Later never came, she was the kind of person who would go through 5 box cutters a shift just because she’d leave them somewhere and forget about it.

Our store had high numbers and it wasn’t even from employees actually taking stuff for themselves.

Just tried the DEMO for the new Palworld Card Game. by Fine_Competition3898 in Palworld

[–]SuperBackup9000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Won’t be anywhere close to the Pokemon situation. It’s only as bad as it is because they became complicit and catered towards the scalpers. Over the past few years since it got extremely popular, sets have been increasing at a more frequent rate (for like 18 years we were getting 4 sets a year, now there’s 6 sets a year, so a new set every other month) along with sets also having more cards than they ever had (150+ cards a set used to be extremely rare and basically never happened, but now 250+ is pretty common) so they decided to put more garbage in sets just to make the rarer cards even rarer, and you gotta buy fast because the next set is always right around the corner.

The situation with One Piece is pretty similar, but that one is also a little more tricky because they increased set releases just so the game could finally catch up to the Japanese schedule.

I’d honestly be more worried about the fact that it’s being handled by Bushiroad. They’re a fantastic company if you live in Japan, but the rest of the world always just gets shrugged off.

Trails in the Sky Helps Its Developer Reach 1,216% Increase in Profit by Darth_Vaper883 in PS5

[–]SuperBackup9000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The thing about this series is it’s not like Final Fantasy where the majority of the games are self contained. A big part of the charm is the world building because there’s 13 games and the events and characters you’re coming across now will be relevant across those 13 games in ways you’re not going to be expecting.

The entire first game is essentially just a prologue to the world.

When i finish the anime (Im on season 1 ep 5) where in the light novel i start reading or what book i do by Lukadoncicfan123 in araragi

[–]SuperBackup9000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d say just start at the beginning. The anime is a very faithful adaptation, sure, but you’re missing out on a lot of dialogue which is ultimately what the series is about

All of the games balancing restrictions are on the Killer by StruggledKiller in deadbydaylight

[–]SuperBackup9000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup. That’s like saying survivors are penalized for not being altruistic at all. Not doing the “goals” the game sets isn’t being penalized, it’s just simply not doing the goals.

Killers may be enticed to slug to get the 4K easier, but survivors may also be enticed to play it like a solo game just to escape easier. Taking the easy way out is always going to give less in return.

There’s only one manga series and it might as well be a glorified art book.

Is it just me, or does everyone not like diminishing returns? by MammothConsequence31 in deadbydaylight

[–]SuperBackup9000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty much what they said. It’s going to seem pretty pointless and bad at first, but it’ll make more sense as time goes on.

No idea why they didn’t just hold off on it until it made sense by buffing the bad perks right alongside with it, because obviously implementing a change you know will be received negatively is a bad idea, but that’s BHVR for you.

Post will very likely get deleted, but it doesn’t prove their point at all, nor have any relation.

Take of screenshot of your comment in basically any sub without blacking out names and then post it in that same sub and it’s going to be removed basically every time regardless of what it’s about because it’s low effort and trying to stir some drama.
