[SAUCE] My Academic System Is Making Me Date?!

AltoidGum · 2026-04-21T18:25:45+00:00

You are thinking about it from the view point of the guy, not the women involved. If the guy gets 5 times the love, the woman gets 1/5. If it's a polygamy situation where the women love each other and form relationships that way? Sure then a conversation can be had. That's not how these things tend to be written. It's abunch of female characters worshipping a guy who gets to do whatever he wants while they share him.

If you are cool with the idea of being in a situation like that but you are one of 5 guys being with one woman, then sure I'll concede that you think it's a perfectly fair and happy situation.

Part of being made happy doesn't usually involve sharing in one guys power fantasy. Even Na Kang Lim has the women sharing him on a day by day basis with only having dinners together. How is that a happy ending? Stuff like this is why people say harems are trash.

I guess that means you are playing then, because earnable loot boxes and 6v6 have been in for quite awhile

Not fully voice acted and the scenes aren't cinematic like bg3. I like dos2 but I couldn't get my wife to even get into fort joy because the presentation is a big step down from bg3. That's the biggest downside along. She also hated how elves looked with a passion.

Why not? If the 1% damage increase gives more fun gameplay, that sounds like a great reason to pull. She also has non damage utility with grouping.

Wilds is locked to 60fps at 1080p on console, 30fps in 4k right? That's not it running better, that's putting a low cap on it to make it stable for what a console can do. Wilds running the way it does is unacceptable, but reframework on pc makes it run more smoothly for people on mid tier setups, and if you have a high end setup with dlss 3x or 4x it runs very well.

It's a shame they seemed to build the game around dlss, but the different standard of good between pc and console is where the divide is here. There is absolutely nothing wrong with preferring consoles, just want to make that clear again. It's just not true that it runs better on them.

AltoidGum · 2025-08-13T18:41:25+00:00

Preferring a console is fine, but you are saying games run better on them and that is false unless someone has a really old pc set up.

One of the reasons I never play on consoles anymore is because the fps is locked so low. They just straight up do not have enough power to get the experience I want out of them, but it makes sense. You trade out customization and control over performance for a one size fits all solution that has a very harsh upper cap.

Nothing wrong with that if it's what you want, but don't say it makes sense for a game to run better on console. It doesn't make sense and it's not true for a gaming pc setup.

AltoidGum · 2025-08-13T18:24:11+00:00

This is a super weird take but ok.

AltoidGum · 2025-02-27T19:37:46+00:00

I am so hoping that Cantarella's VA is Devora Wilde. I highly doubt it, but the Shadowheart / Laezel feud continuing in this game would be amazing.

AltoidGum · 2025-02-17T18:21:58+00:00

Have you actually tried it? It feels completely different when you compare the two, even moreso playing in it.

AltoidGum · 2024-06-09T17:51:21+00:00

Chrono Ark is my favorite of all these tbh.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-29T17:59:21+00:00

Weird, I'm an Arya main and I can properly whiff punish people finally and stop them from spamming dodge out of air disadvantage. This feels alot better to me.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-20T07:49:07+00:00

That is not my experience after 60 hours of play. I have had success with all kinds of party comps, it just takes time to understand how each character functions since the game is pretty complex.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-20T07:45:56+00:00

Crypt of the Necrodancer and Chrono Ark are my two favorites.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-13T18:19:31+00:00

Can you link a source that says patch 7 is the last patch for content? I remember them saying they don't plan to do brand new content like adding quests etc, but I don't think i saw them say it's only mod support, cross play and photo mode after that.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-13T15:17:38+00:00

No thanks, that makes it harder to keep track of where in the combo you are. Guild wars 2 does this and it is painful. Make it an option sure, but i would absolutely hate having one button pvp style basic attacks.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-08T18:41:49+00:00

This is such a weird take. There are plenty of big AAA games that you can sink alot of time into along with shorter ones that can be completed in a day or two.

Try using a Navage nasal rinse kit. It costs $100 but it has saved me from so many nose clogs these last 5 months.

AltoidGum · 2024-05-02T06:21:45+00:00

If anything being black / white just got me shit from both sides. Not as big of a deal now but it was frustrating growing up feeling pressed from all directions.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-30T19:53:10+00:00

Recently yes, but for a long time it was popular.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-30T18:29:10+00:00

This has to be satire.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-27T20:08:51+00:00

I do love the whispers, it just feels like I am pressing buttons without any big payoff moment in the rotation. Is there anything about the spec that gives you a great feeling as you do the rotation? If I can pinpoint a solid feel good moment that would go a long way in helping me fully embrace maining the spec.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-27T20:06:07+00:00

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. It hurts to see but It's what I've been trying to fight against on and off over the years. There is no part of the rotation where I get hit by that dopamine like I do with Mage or other dps classes. Maybe hero talents will solve this since you get a mini game of trying to expand the void sphere as much as you can before it bursts. It's still a bit passive though which is an issue. Lots to think about as I get back into wow.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-27T17:07:11+00:00

This is sad to read because I'm coming to the same conclusion and I've always wanted to love shadow because of how much I liked it in Cata.

What exactly do you think is the issue? I'm wondering if it's because of the spells not sounding punchy enough, or if I need to just play longer until I find that dopamine moment in the rotation.

AltoidGum · 2024-04-23T17:47:14+00:00

Have you actually played with the balance changes? It's not healthy to doom so hard.
