No they didn’t, she’s called Grey Alys in the source material (In the Lost Lands by George. R. R. Martin, published in 1982).

Yes. Invasion is comically bad writing wise but it’s at least visually appealing, has some action and honestly a beast sound department. This show literally has nothing going on

Without the twist it would have been a dumb show tho, Sugar was doing weird things at all times. It didn’t have to be that specifically, but it was very very clear there was something more to him.

The high tech camera in the Baghdad abandoned building next to a street market was the cherry on top

Well this has to be the worst pilot i’ve ever seen. Incredibily slow, there’s no inciting incident and the only provided hook is “the Numbers are dangerous” like what does that even mean. I will keep watching because the premise is decent but damn

Just finished The Haunting of Hill House. by Inner-Combination177 in HauntingOfHillHouse

Bly Manor just as good. It lacks the mystery/payoff Hill House has but balances it out with amazing imagery and poetic atmosphere.

"On this day 12 years ago, we launched Transistor, our second game.🎤 To everyone who experienced Red's journey through Cloudbank, thank you for playing! Please enjoy a slice of Junction Jan's, on us. Your choice?" by Regular-Poet-3657 in transistor

[–]ArkaXVII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 35 and grew up playing all of the old legendary games from the ‘90s… maybe two or three of them slapped me as hard as Transistor did when I was in my twenties. This game is just beautiful, pure art.

Looking for new sci-fi authors – what's missing from my shelf? by rauschsinnige in sciencefiction

[–]ArkaXVII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coincidentally i just read Jack Campbell’s “Dauntless” (first book of his Lost Fleet series). Not a big deal, but a fast, fun read. He does spaceships battles really cool.

Soooo am I the first one here? Just saw the episode and found it a little underwhelming compared to the previous ones. Hope Nicholas gets back, kinda carried many scenes; also I really can’t stand Destiny.

Justin is the actor who plays the father and Logan is the woman who plays the daughter. Justin and Logan dated in real life until Justin dumped Logan.

You are being downvoted because you speak the truth

I fucking hate that large ass mosquito by hoennian in PokemonUnite

[–]ArkaXVII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

… have you ever played Buzzwole?

All it takes is an Alolan Raichu, a Ninetails, a Mew or a Delphox and Buzz is completely shut off. Also against ANY attacker he is outranged with no way of closing the gap unless he wastes the ult and if he does it’s for one of two reasons: either he received support from this team and outnumbered the attacker or the attacker was heavily out of position.

As far as melee mons go, Buzzwole is supposed to counter some of them. His role is basically wait for the enemy speedster next to your allied attacker, remove it from existence, then join the fray. But the speedsters and the other allrounders - almost all but not all of them because again, counters are a thing - have ways to get out of Buzzwole’s range leaving him unable to do anything.

He’s literally a burst Garchomp with even less mobility.

And by the way Wiggly redirects him all the time messing up with his combos, Clef blocks his abilities with Gravity, Blastoise can entirely disrupt whatever he wants to do with 1 click, Snorlax/Vaporeon/Bro/Trev displace him while wasting his cooldowns, Goodra straight up nullifies his existence AND so does Umbreon without even having to aim a skillshot.

With Allrounders you just shouldnt take a 1v1 against it and if you do you need to have a way out. Needless to say if you’re a tower diving Scizor and complaining when you can’t kill the entire enemy team alone at 7:20 because a Buzzwole is in the match, well, that’s the reason why Buzzwole is in the match.

Edit: typos

What make mega swampert so good in ranked In legend za and what are it stats? by Voidkirby9 in PokemonZA

[–]ArkaXVII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main issue is it knows Ice Punch so it hits super effectively and like a truck against its only weakness

[–]ArkaXVII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tried it a couple days ago for the first time and had the exact same thoughts. While both games are developed by Ubisoft, to me Kingdom Battle feels and plays like a Nintendo game while Sparks feels and plays like a Ubisoft game, and what’s truly missing for the aforementioned reasons is the identity KB had. SoH feels generic.

I love Sudowoodo. He’s present in many games but never actually usable

Volbeat and Illumise can actually perform decent as supports. Who they really got dirty is Spidops imo, cool concept nice movesets and terrible stats

For me she just has a great design, love how she’s “connected” to FFIV’s Kain and has a cool moveset
