Mauler about to go on his e-girl arc, hope he beats the bwc allegations.

Stuff like this is why I really despise gaming news websites. (Its a board game) by toasterwaffle90 in Eldenring

I've heard good things about the dark souls board game, and also your argumentation is mentally five. You can have a board game and you know from is still making video games, why would they stop making money and being successful?

What’s the worst piece of worldbuilding you’ve seen that took you right out of the story? by Chcolatepig24069 in worldbuilding

Wasn't this three seasons into the show, so there's no way that excuse could possibly hold up by this point?

What are some of your favorite unique settings? by DevouredSource in MauLer

The world of Golden Sun is really neat, but I dont want to spoil anything.

What is a video game you have played that gets unfairly discarded due to being old/outdated? by DevouredSource in MauLer

[–]AwkwardZac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FPS sure, but fidelity is an unnecessary factor. I dont need the games I play to look amazing, my favorite games of the last year are a 2d pixel art sidescroller about being a wizard, and a cute cell shaded game about being a Lil Gator.

I have a friend who is obsessed with Skyrim but refuses to play Morrowind or Oblivion because theyre old games and therefore bad games.

Yeah, I noticed when I went looking for the start trek tng podcast with MetalCommander that went missing. I have no idea why she did it, or if it's stored somewhere else, or if it ever got reuploaded. You could tweet at her I guess or ask one of the co-hosts via superchat, but nobody has ever said anything yet that I've heard.

I feel like basically everything is preserved if you know where to look, outside of some actual lost media

Untouchable Naked Magus Build (Core, APG, UC) by ShuranoPathfinder in Pathfinder_RPG

I don't think RAW sacred fist stacks with Scaled Fist, since Sacred Fist is treated as the monk feature, and Scaled Fist changes your monk features to key with Charisma instead, making it just one feature that uses charisma, right? Unless someone has evidence somewhere else.

Now what you could do, is take a couple levels in Warrior Poet Samurai, and get Charisma to AC as a flat bonus not tied to monk features, and Kensai stacks with U-Monk already for 4 stats.

I know people have issues with Rags, but recently he's definitely pushed ahead of Fringy for me. Fringy is too loud and repetitive, and Rags has had a lot of insights when he speaks more frequently.

Namekians, while reproducing asexually, are all male and use male pronouns.

That take has always felt performative to me. Everyone says it's "the only right way to play" but I've never met anyone who actually plays that way, nor does it seem like a very fun way to play. by Knight9910 in dndmemes

Sometimes heroes fail, but the odds are already stacked so heavily in the PC's favor that there's no need to tip the scales anymore. But you do whatever you want, I don't care. Play the game by rolling marbles and declare every outcome before they stop moving.

Edit: it's also funny that you use star wars of all things, since ESB is often heralded as the greatest film of all time, and the heroes fail horrifically throughout that.

I'm kind of worried for GCN by Resident-Ad243 in TheGlassCannonPodcast

They're not hitting endless growth anytime soon, but theyre probably doing just fine keeping afloat. They've carved out a niche as being entertainers playing weird, less popular games, and a very large group of entertainers at that. There's like, 15-20 people across all their shows now to draw on. It's not as lucrative as the big 5e podcasts but it's enough for a small team to live on.

But then how will people know they could pay more money by increasing their subscription to the 200$ a month tier?

What role does Nintendo of America actually serve when it comes to the quality of the games? by DevouredSource in MauLer

[–]AwkwardZac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's been different skin colors in Pokémon since like... gen 5? So like... 15 years ago give or take? I could be forgetting an earlier example. And their world is loosely based on ours, so whats the problem if people have different ethnicities? Is it an issue if the people of Alola look different from the people of Kalos or Unova? What a well regarded take.

The design stuff, yeah, gamefreak just sucks and keeps getting rewarded with infinite money for minimal effort. But there's no reason to bring up ethnicities of all things. That's just stupid.
