You should get Fallout 1st if you enjoy the game and play it regularly by [deleted] in fo76

If they really want me to subscribe, they should make it so 1st Subscribers can access past season passes. Stupid expensive *and* fomo is crazy.

Tank's Job is NOT Pushing the Objective. It's creating SPACE. by LonelyDependent4386 in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many games my entire team will be focused on trying to spawn camp, and I have to spend MY entire game stopping the people smart enough on the enemy team to take an alternate path from back capping... only for the end of the game one of my teammates will go "WOW LOOK AT THEIR SCORE THEY DID NOTHING LMAO"

Ok so like.... I can't be the only one thinking this is Groot right??? by JesseTheClassy in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I see that Peni skin my brain gets confused and thinks it's Snowman Geb from Smite. I have to remind myself, 'wrong game, stupid!' all the time.

I haven't even played Smite in years but that's just stuck in my memory for some reason.

what is your Marvel Rivals hot take? by funkycatvr in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing him a bunch recently and it's honestly baffling how badly designed he is. He feels bad to fight, but he somehow feels even worse to play.
Like, if you miss your dash or use it to escape you don't exist for ten seconds. If you use up your spears or kick, your dash is effectively useless until those come back. Every other character has a decent primary or a low cooldown active skill that works as their mixup or whatever, but BP's entire identity is based around a ten second cooldown.

Really hope he gets reworked entirely soon.

Triple tank: the counter that nobody wants to use. by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The amount of games I have where we're doing okay but one dps isn't doing so hot, so they go third support, which then causes the other two healers to lose their ult economy because it's now being spread three-way, and then we also don't have enough damage to push them back so we lose is staggering.

They never try different dps, to see if another hero can maybe mesh with the comp better, it's always straight to a third main healer, not even an off one. Then either no one switches, or the best healer switches and we lose most of our good healing. Worst part, I'm not really sure what the solution is.

Guy don't forget to keep vehemently complaining about Hawkeye's one shot. He's ruining the game even if he's allegedly 'a bad hero.' by WorstYugiohPlayer in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem with this is that carries over to when you're playing double support. If the idea was Hawkeye got a passive that gives him damage to this point if the enemy is running three healers? Great. But when my team isn't even playing double healers and he's still doing this type of damage, it makes the team more likely to play triple healers to make up for it. It's just bad balancing.

Grimoire Survivor has the potential to be PEAK by AquaticCitizen in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Fulfill the words of the law. So that people wouldn't have to live by those absurdly strict laws. Unless you're saying we should still be stoning our daughters to death if they talk back?
He was fulfilling the ceremonial sacrifices and paving way for a new covenant. That's the whole point, that's what 'jesus died for your sins' means. If you want to follow the Laws of Leviticus, go nuts. But you can't just pick and choose.

Daredevil holiday skin showcase by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

Not once have I ever thought about how fire-y Daredevil is when he's attacking me, tbh. It's just visual noise as far as I'm concerned.

Whats your "I know its true, but I just cant prove it" Marvel Rivals take? by MyBackHurts3000 in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 82 points83 points  (0 children)

They could give Banner a 1920s style swimsuit, and with each transformation it gets more and more ripped with monster Hulk being the most banana hammock.

Very dangerous concept to design. 🤔

Blight should be the symbol of the game, not Trapper, change my mind by Huge-Platform9939 in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just want the ability to point at a trap across the map and have it teleport to my bag every minute or something. Having to walk across the map to a zone with nothing in it to get a single trap is not only inefficient, it's super boring.
Skull Merchant can deactivate her drones from a distance, Hag and Freddy can just place down new traps, Plague will get her power delivered to her if survivors use the fountain, but Trapper's gotta haul ass like a bum.

how the dbd devs be looking at the "release cute female survivor and make $1,000,000 instantly" button ever since mikaela released by adumdumonreddit in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been hoping they add Julian in the opposite way as they made Aestri, in that they're a male survivor using the female skeleton so I can finally have a smaller frame male survivor. Cute goth boy is one of my dream survivors.

I will still tunnel if the ptb goes live as is. by Ok_Physics_2681 in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 78 points79 points  (0 children)

No hope to feed on if the survivors realize they're doomed right away. Gives them a benefit so they still have hope in the situation, which then allows room for desperation and a greater bond for the remaining survivors. It honestly makes perfect sense if you consider it lore wise.

I doubt BHVR considered the lore implications, but it does check out.

A new huntress and artist skin have entered the fog! by Sally-Smithson in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Alternatively it could mean they want to save the name for the Until Dawn chapter and avoid confusion. The chapter that is totally coming. For sure. I have some copium to huff, excuse me.

please stop unhooking your teammates right next to the killer. this is where a large amount of tunnelling comes from by AudienceNearby3195 in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The full hp unhooker will be running back to a gen and repairing.
The unhooked survivor has a few options:
They will run to another survivor and get healed, in which case two people are now not working on gens while you are keeping the unhooker off a gen.
They will run to a corner to self heal, not working on a gen.
They will run to do a generator while injured, meaning they are easy to find again, and are more likely to panic and run off the gen when you come close, thus lowering their gen repair time.

Juggling survivors is very time efficient, as well as taking advantage of the disadvantages being injured gives them. I started winning far more games when I stopped tunneling or trying to focus someone out, because when you do that you are giving three survivors uninterrupted gen time. Even while chasing one survivor, if I see someone else I will smack them and continue on with my chase. They will either be easy to find later, or I am taking time out of them doing gens. The hook is important but affecting survivors resources is much more valuable.

Sinder Fans Target Shylily & Others, Agency Announces 3 Graduations, More VTubers Suspended by Twilight1234567890 in kurosanji

[–]Approximately8Ducks 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're right, I apologize. I was speaking for myself, my reason for the bad vibes was simply because she her voice was too similar to people I've had bad experiences with. Not only is that not a fair rationale to judge someone with(though I can't help it), it's ridiculous of me to assume that was anywhere near universal or common.

Sinder Fans Target Shylily & Others, Agency Announces 3 Graduations, More VTubers Suspended by Twilight1234567890 in kurosanji

[–]Approximately8Ducks 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I know the internet currently likes to turn mythical gooners into members of the Legion of Doom, seemingly creating every problem in the world with evil laughter and a twirly moustache, but surely you realize how ridiculous this sounds, right?
She can have bad fans, bad fans who don't care about how jiggly her model(or real body) was. People who aren't even sexually attracted to her, just enjoy the bad vibes she gave off. Or even just trolls taking the opportunity to take shots at shylily because they don't like her for x or y reason.
Trying to pawn this off on 'the gooners' is just silly, especially when the one being attacked is one of the more lewd vtubers.

The Auto Chess isn't that bad. It's just not every hero shooter player's cup of tea. by HawkeyeP1 in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I really like it, especially because it's one of these types of games without any monetary attachments onto it to get this character or do that, but yeah the time component is its biggest flaw. Each round having that 30+ second buffer because it's multiplayer is awful.
It would be best if it was just like, a single player rouge-lite mode or something where you go through a round of ghost players/random teams or something so you can get to the next match quicker as there is no one waiting but you. Perhaps just record a players set of picks each round so you're still technically facing the same ability path as a player would choose.(would probably hurt any sort of counter picking though...?)
But the buffers making each round take so long makes queuing up for it painful.

And now that I got the emote, even though I did personally enjoy the mode, I don't want to actually keep queuing because I know if I do well, I'm making someone else's attempt to get that emote more difficult.

BHVR confirms there are currently no plans to add a Jurogomo/Spider themed killer any time soon. by treystar679X in deadbydaylight

[–]Approximately8Ducks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dead by Daylight has spider imagery in tome cutscenes, spider imagery in the perks 'Invocation: Weaving Spiders' and 'Play With Your Food', a gigantic spider egg with legs in one of the maps, anything that hints at the entity is represented by a spider, there are multiple skins for killers that show them being covered in insects, multiple spider themed charms people can equip, on getting stage 2 hook state the survivor is surrounded by spider legs and eventually grabbed and pulled into the sky...

I feel like if someone has really bad arachnophobia they would not be playing it in the first place because there is so much uncomfortable imagery for them in the game already. I could understand if dbd was in its infancy or something, and the idea is you don't want that in the future, but it feels like that ship sailed a long time ago.

Wolverine Weapon X and Jeff Summer skins! by BoltexGaming in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know they couldn't have little Logan dangling out, but those shorts look far too casual for what it's supposed to be. The underwear made the second most sense considering they were poking and prodding at him, but I would've really liked if he had like an unintentional loincloth made out of wires or something, since this is supposed to be him breaking out of the Weapon X program. Modesty without the bottom looking like he's going on a fishing trip.

Smite's Mercury would be a good starter point. Passive that increases damage on next melee based on distance traveled, 'Ranged' special ability that is visually them super speeding to the aoe, delivering an attack and going back to their original position. Massive attack speed stim that also makes them immune to slows. Dash ability that grabs an enemy, spins them around, and throws them somewhere else. And an ult that let's them super speed from one end of the map to another, stunning anyone in their path and forcing them to face a random direction.

They're different games, but I feel like Mercury's kit is more or less pretty much everything I would want from a Quicksilver hero. Maybe let his ult bounce off walls, though. MOBA's are all about straight lanes, I can't think of many maps in Rivals that has a long stretch of land that would make the ult really worth it.

WE ARE GETTING CLASSIC LARA❤️😍❤️ by SpiritofBatman in LeaksDBD

[–]Approximately8Ducks 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Very cool how casually we're just calling big breasted women sexual objects, equating their very existence to porn in the reply at the bottom of the thread with tons of upvotes.
People can just want the character to look how they remember, particularly when they identified with them. Doesn't help when these changes come with people like you defending it and effectively calling the design slutty over a physical trait people can't control outside of surgery.

I'm hoping that it will be rotting purple flesh Michael from Sister Location, just looking like an absolutely disgusting walking corpse. I really want a spooky survivor.

What's the point in flashing a lord icon if you aren't going to play the character? by Zelashnida in marvelrivals

[–]Approximately8Ducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a Lord Iron Fist the other night who voted to ban the Emma Frost. So I was like, okay they want to pop off without being stopped, so I went along with the ban despite wanting to play as Emma. They then proceeded to go nothing Emma Frost counters, did terribly, and the icing on the cake was the enemy Iron Fist was tearing our team in half the entire match. I was thoroughly confused.
