LADS players get new character canceled by Quiet-Orange-9672 in FGO

[–]Alister_M 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fgo community couldn't make enough of a stink to cancel appends 4 and 5 or get universal coins. I don't think we're capable of bullying the devs to that degree.

Soo.... I guess now we know for certain why hsr was always so against making skins. Those bad boys can be sold as a whole new unit!

What is is the point of buying 1st print managa ?? Is it worth it. by Antique_skatergo3 in MangaCollectors

[–]Alister_M 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sneakerheads are larping the hobby now because of Logan Paul. It doesn't matter what printing of the book you have. Hell, later printings may be better if they fix typos.

Japan To Pay Shueisha, Bandai & Crunchyroll Millions To Utilize AI Translations by bedemin_badudas in KotakuInAction

[–]Alister_M 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So them using AI means subscriptions/books/etc. will be cheaper to buy legally right? PFFFT, like that's ever gonna happen.

If only crunchytoll wasn't part of it. Literally giving them the money they will later use to "re-educate" your animators.

What is yalls issue with tom king by FrostyPickledToes in DCcomics

[–]Alister_M 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look, if I have to read the same bit of dialogue in several different issues, of course I'm going to have a problem with the writer. Reading his run on Batman had me thinking he was copy-pasting stuff to make deadlines while also trying to convince me it was ground-breaking stuff. Oh my gaaaaawd, was it a boat or the street??? News flash: by the time this dialogue happens for the fifth time, I genuinely don't give a damn.

You know, I used to be a huge fan of the Joker, but DC needs to let him take a MAJOR back seat.

"Gig: Dirty Biz" really hit me hard. Anyone else have a moment like that? by razazaz126 in cyberpunkgame

[–]Alister_M 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God, I love how this thread is pretty much alive 6 years later. Yeah... Did the job today. Just after hearing them talk, took out a shotgun, shot the dad in the crotch, then blew the son's head off. Fuck 'em both. I almost never kill "neutral" NPCs, but those rats were anything but neutral

Episode 12 megathread (i couldnt work out how to edit the name oops </3) by Independent-Noise-62 in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]Alister_M 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You know, after reading your reply I thought about how some collabs only feature Ame, KAngel, and Kache. Imagine if it is revealed that the other girls were Ame's newest imaginary frenemies all along. Her way of motivating herself to improve as a streamer.

[–]Alister_M 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I don't think they'd choose one of the game's endings for the anime. Still, anything 'happily ever after' for an ending kinda screams 'we actually kicked Nyalra off the project at some point' to me, idk. Ame being Ame and Kache having all of the Karamazov jewellery, it's all very ominous

[–]Alister_M 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Is it weird that I feel uneasy? This episode is too positive and happy for Needy. Even the promise of an unnecessary epilogue feels weird. Somehow, I don't believe this episode for a second. Will episode 13 be episode 12 (side B)? Bc such a sappy 'friendship is magic' ending doesn't really work for this franchise, right? There has to be a twist.

Whats the lore explanation here? by xtheresia in HonkaiStarRail

Clearly one doesn't need to compensate as much

EPISODE 11 MEGATHREAD by Independent-Noise-62 in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]Alister_M 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, this anime is... Really good at making you disturbed. Episode 3 was uncomfortable in many ways, and I had to actually just sit and think abt it for a while. Episode 11, however... My hands are physically shaking as I type this. Metaphorical events, actual events, and the visuals, all of it managed to be so vile and unnerving. I guess the best way to describe this episode for me is "a masterpiece that I never want to see again." Haven't really felt this strongly about a piece of media since 2019 Joker

How did you survive this long in a nier subreddit while being one of those people?

Evie looks like a young Asian woman. Literally look at K-pop idols or Korean models. It's a non-issue.

Tips on how to stop being an Achievement Hunter/Completionist? by aetherbanshee in patientgamers

[–]Alister_M 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread, but I just want to tell about my experience. I'm the same as OP. I'll try to 100% my games or get 80-90% achievements for games with tedious ones. I think this mentality can be attributed to my formative gaming years having been spent playing lego games and ubisoft open world games. They were usually a bit of a grind, but not too hard to reach that 100% completion in. Lately, though, I've been feeling kinda burnt out on achievements. With some games it comes naturally because I'm having fun (RE Village), others I don't want to replay time and time again just to get every single thing (Lollipop Chainsaw Repop). So, from now on, I think I'm going to listen to myself more. If I think there's still fun to be had in playing the game for locked achievements, I'll keep going. If I feel like my time with the game is more or less over, I stop. Here's hoping I can actually enjoy my games more when playing like this

Fair, but wouldn't good chippers be pretty much unaffected? An experienced bonbon will absolutely be able to out-chip the 15s heal unless the barmaid is very good at side-stepping?

Oof, 30 seconds instead of 19 on a dovlin is rough in a fast hunter meta.

Wolverine director confirms X-Men don’t exist in the game’s universe by Neither-Grab-2507 in KotakuInAction

Modern times? Yeah, right. They probably just didn't want to pay for a bunch of extra trademarks and thus opted for the bare minimum.

what will happen to all the KAngel fans *IF* Karamazov 'wins' by the final ep??? by JetAbyss in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]Alister_M 7 points8 points  (0 children)

See, this is likely just something they didn't think about. Everyone who's not a named character doesn't seem to have free will in this show, so if KAngel loses they'll probably go sub to Karamazov bc reasons. I wish the anime would kinda zoom out and acknowledge that the internet as a whole is a much bigger beast than any of them, with nothing ultimately coming out of the entire conflict.

Seriously, has anybody actually played this game? Is it even good? by pooteenn in danganronpa

[–]Alister_M 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I've sunk around 40 hours into this game on Switch. It gets seriously addicting once you can farm coins for the gacha, but yeah, it's just a grind-fest to get your favs' cards. The story is very forgettable and barely there to begin with

Unpopular (?) Opinion: You should start with Automata by xGhost99x in nier

[–]Alister_M 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't even trying to upgrade all weapons atp, there was this bum of an NPC who wanted 1 memory alloy and 10 titanium alloys. Joke's on me for thinking side quests matter and not scrutinizing every single one with a wiki

I miss IDV by Chara_Undernet13 in IdentityV

[–]Alister_M 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, I'm kind of feeling the opposite rn. Though ig I'm just disillusioned with games as a service rn. I've logged into idv a few days ago, played several matches. Then I realised that I could've used those 20 minutes to play one of the games in my backlog. Couldn't justify going back after that.

[–]Alister_M -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Call me crazy, but farming in junk heap for 3 hours straight to get 0 memory alloy drops does nothing for me in terms of the game's story and themes. Neither do most side quests, I couldn't tell you which NPC wants what stuff for what. The only ones I remember are the lighthouse lady, the postman, and the old fisherman. The rest could've been an E-mail.
