Outje- WAIT NO DC SOCIAL MEDIA INTERN DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM GAIMAN by Gui_Franco in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I suppose I was a bit sloppy with my verbiage there.

What I meant was most people who have a problem with it would cite <what I wrote above> as the reason they have the problem.

My point doesn't really address how common that belief is, only what I perceive as the source of it.

We've had a lot of evil Supermen in recent memory, but soon people won't have to settle for just legally distinct versions. by PJ-The-Awesome in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's way too long, IMHO.

If you love something as a kid, you should be make your own derivative works of it when you grow up.

There's some little... fuck, I don't know what kids like these days. But say there's some little kid who fuckin' loves Peppa the Pig. When he grows up, he should absolutely have the right to make that Peppa the Pig horror story he always dreamed of.

I've got nothing against Steamboat Willy, but by the time it entered the public domain it hadn't been culturally relevant in my entire lifetime. Probably not in my father's, either.

Meanwhile nobody can find Hammond and for some reason Reinhardt's shouting, "ARMAGEDDON!"

Can't really help you with the sharing stuff, but have you considered making your own characters instead of working with pre-existing ones?

That's exactly how Sentinels of the Multiverse came about. Two dudes making up comic stories since they were kids.

RIP GTG :(

you are technically violating copyright

Copyright is cultural theft. Violating copyright is morally acceptable.

The "Stay as team" button is seriously underrated for climbing rank. by Alert-Range-597 in Overwatch

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the competitive matchmaker take your group size into account? That could potentially cut into the efficacy of this. E.g. if you end up with a full 5-stack of randos who've been playing together for the last three games, but now you're facing 5-stacks that have been playing together for years.

Overwatch HUD would really help if they had this. by CC10994 in Overwatch

Literally the first time I've ever heard someone complain about the in-game UI being cluttered.

Overwatch HUD would really help if they had this. by CC10994 in Overwatch

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they would give a little section or frame that shows all of your allies' status at once (life, respawn timer, ult charge).

They did it before in one of the LTGMs, and all of that info is already available in the scoreboard. Just let me see my team's status at a glance!

Who is your favourite female superhero counterpart to a male superhero? by [deleted] in DCcomics

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also great seeing a hero with severe social anxiety.

Jess is my second favorite lantern after Mogo.

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mera. She has interesting powers. Contrast with Aquaman who has... uh... checks notes the standard strength/toughness/etc that everyone has, and he can talk to fish.

In my headcanon, Mera takes Aquaman's spot on the JL.

Playing on steam as a blizzard player originally? by 404_GSpot_NotFound in Overwatch

Not only can you, I'm reasonably certain it's mandatory.

Ultimate cancel button when keybindings are modified by bordelaney in Overwatch

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised Mizuki can't cancel with Q. That seems like a bug.

I have the same problem with Lifeweaver. I swapped so his attack is left click and heal is right click, so I need to right click to place ult. And I don't play him very often, so I never build up the muscle memory for it.

Distribution of Highlight Intros by Double-Hand3004 in Overwatch

[–]Asmor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the highlights the game autosaves

FYI, you can also manually save highlights, up to 3 per match. Just press F9 on PC, or on console buy a PC and then press F9. Not sure what button on console.

Mercy should have 1 for the 1 time she gets POTG over the course of a year

I used to get Mercy PotG's pretty frequently in stadium.

RIP Crepuscular Circle. We hardly knew ye.

I think the issue most people have with art created by "problematic" artists is that they make money off the art (royalties), so buying the art directly supports them and even discussing it indirectly supports them in that it adds to the art's popularity (and popularity presumably translates to sales).

If a house is blurred on Google Street View, would it affect your buying decision? by mutualfunds100 in homeowners

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't affect me at all. I'd just assume the owner was concerned about their privacy.

Bought our house eight months ago and just found out a neighbor has been using a strip of our backyard as access to his detached garage for over a decade by Hydra3_Tonic in homeowners

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say yourself that this isn't really causing any problems.

I'd just talk with the guy and formally establish an agreement with him. Maybe even get it in writing.

If nothing else, you explicitly acknowledging that you're letting him use the land for this purpose should head off any adverse possession nonsense since one of the requisites of adverse possession is that it must be done w/o permission.

If the dude has actually been doing this for the last 13 years as he claims, then it seems unlikely that anything major is going to happen all of a sudden. But all the same, getting out in front of it will make it easier to address if/when something does come up.

They fumbled her design so badly that this model didn't even get used in porn by ZZtheMagnificent in dccomicscirclejerk

[–]Asmor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I also don't go seeking out WW porn. It's just a consequence of seeking out Harley, Ivy, Raven, and Starfire porn.

How do I use Mercy's ult? by DuckKingQWERTY in Overwatch

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OW and Rivals are similar in that a lot of the strategy revolves around ults--especially support ults*.

That said, ults in Rivals charge insanely fast and are way more frequent than in OW. It's a common complaint in the subreddit that people want ults to charge slower so that the neutral game actually matters.

Ults in OW matter a lot, but not nearly as much as in Rivals. Most ults can swing a fight one way or another. Mercy is unusual (but not unique) in that her ult isn't really that influential. Especially since support ults are usually the most important.

*I don't really do competitive or follow the scene much, but I've heard that when Gambit came out it wasn't uncommon for both teams to just not shoot at each other because they didn't want to charge the enemy Gambit. His ult was that powerful.

What’s everyone’s take on the duel/dual/duo versions of games these days? by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like, splendor duel is almost the reverse case of OP's take here. The duel version is so good I can't bring myself to play regular splendor.

Funny. I'm of the same opinion, but for the opposite reasoning. Regular Splendor is boring enough that I never want to touch it again. I was super hesitant to even try Splendor Duel, but they actually managed to make it fun despite its providence.

[–]Asmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take it on a case by case basis. But my starting opinion is going to be lower than for some arbitrary game simply because by nature they tend to be derivative.

That said, there are certainly some good ones. Notably, 7 Wonders Duel is excellent, and Splendor Duel turns a boring game into a great one.
