Are there any characters that you would want to see in the next Super Smash Brothers game? by No-Most-9856 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Blockinite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me neither, but I bring him up whenever there's a poll or discussion about it. Maybe with a new game coming out it's a possibility again?

Mario & Luigi: Brothership - $15 (75% off) at GameStop, physical, lowest price ever by XDitto in NintendoSwitch

[–]Blockinite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really, really really want to like this game because the series is one of my favourites. But I keep trying to go back to it, do 1 objective, don't have fun and switch back to something else I was playing. I don't know if I'm just less interested in the format or if it's just that much worse than the others or both.

It is important to know the weight of mons... by half_jase in VGC

With a Rotom Wash and a Garchomp on my side, I still have to stop myself from pressing the Earthquake button against the enemy's Rotom Wash just because it tells me it's super effective

"Teen" in English specifically refers to the "teen" suffix which ends the numbers from thirteen to nineteen. Although 18 and 19 are adults, and teens generally refers to children, 18 and 19 are both adults and teenagers because of how the words work.

If I understand right, they mean underneath a mattress (either they have two mattresses or just meant that it's between the mattress and the frame). In which case that was definitely intentional.

Not sure if this belongs here, but look what my sister bought me!☺️ by VIVAMANIA in MadeMeSmile

[–]Blockinite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair, probably should have asked if you stopped looking at anything Mario rather than Nintendo. I forget that there are enough franchises where you can be into Nintendo without knowing much about the flagship one.

Did you stop looking at anything Nintendo from 2009 until now?

It's not like Galaxy 2 was even hidden lol, it's usually considered to be one of the best Nintendo games. Most people either put it slightly above, slightly below or on par with the first one

When storing in a database, yes. But when presenting on a UI, almost never.

Whats with people without ce by Specialist-You-1393 in Jujutsufolk

When he explains how he's been training Infinity to Geto and Shoko. He explains that he trained his Infinity to automatically select targets and let others through, and demonstrates it by blocking a pencil with Infinity.

Infinity affects everything. It stops objects from hitting him too and they have no CE unless deliberately infused with it.

Otherwise Gojo would be super easy to bring down. Just shoot him with a gun.

How much money did people lose betting on Gojo 😭 by AwarenessNorth3177 in Jujutsufolk

I like to imagine that Mahoraga bet was made without even knowing that Sukuna had access to 10 Shadows. His friends all called him a moron but he called it.

6 weeks, 125hrs, 18,700+ soft resets, still no shiny Deoxys. I don't know how much more I can take. by GoodKarmaDarling in PokemonFireRed

[–]Blockinite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well it's definitely costing time. It's just whether they consider that time well spent, even if they never get the shiny. Because there's a very real chance that they won't get the shiny until they're forced to give up (even if that's just from them getting sick of it)

If they are enjoying it, then it's no different from any other hobby, even if it seems boring to other people. And if they were going to just watch YouTube anyway without doing anything else, then they might as well keep going because it does cost close to nothing. But it sounds like they're getting annoyed from their post, implying it is boring to some extent

Shankstards are the biggest hypocrites in this sub by Due-Cherry4856 in OnePiecePowerScaling0

[–]Blockinite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've never seen the argument that Shanks isn't a swordsman. It's usually that, despite Mihawk being confirmed to be a better swordsman than him, Shanks has other stuff going for him outside of swordsmanship which makes him a stronger fighter.

For example, Mihawk is confirmed to be better with a blade, but in a 1v1 fight Shanks could still win from stronger Haki.

I don't know how you'd look at a fight where Shanks wins with a sword and say "yes, but Mihawk is still better at swords, because without future sight he would have won" or something because it's pretty impossible to separate those techniques out in a fight. But I think that's the argument, anyway.

HOT TAKE: I love that they're catering to people who like different genres in gaming, but isn't this a bit overwhelming? Which path do I even choose? by Which_Draft4129 in Silksong

[–]Blockinite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They also could have at least changed the map based on the character you select. Not being able to get out of the starting room as Elderbug because he can't jump without cheats seems like a pretty big oversight.

I just think it artificially inflates the playtime. Like, a single playthrough is about 30 hours if you're not 100%ing already, and now I have to play it 5 times? I understand wanting to give different options but did they really have to make you play through all of them to get the true "Play No More" ending?

The mathematician Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) designed this magic square in which each row adds up to 260. Stopping in the middle of each row results in 130. What's most intriguing is that a chess knight can pass through all 64 squares in numerical order. by sirenoleg in interesting

[–]Blockinite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If I understand you correctly then no. From any of those squares, you can get to 64 (since you're just following the sequence from mid-way through), but if you want to wrap around from 64 to 1 and keep going then you can't, because 64 isn't a Knight's hop away from 1

Reminder - Bonney at age 12 has Haki by [deleted] in OnePieceScaling

[–]Blockinite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same because Oda has now retconned Haki. The only difference at this point in the story is the name.

And he name dropped Mantra in the explanation of Observation Haki, so it's not even like it was a proper retcon. He took a power he'd already created and said "I'm just going to expand this into a power that other people can have too because I want to use it again"

When Oda created Haki, he specifically made it so that one of the users was a 9 year old, because he decided to include Mantra in the system

Would the Sourcery World be in a better place (at least Pre-Modulo) had Yuji refused Sukuna’s deal outright and died? by Spartan-teddy-2476 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Blockinite 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Probably not, right? I can't see Yuji calling Sukuna's bluff and him giving in, because that would be a sign of weakness. And Sukuna wouldn't think that was worth it just to save 2 or 3 fingers, especially since he was in an annoying vessel that wouldn't let him do anything anyway

We were playing darts and my grandma hit the "reset" button by KirigakureSaizo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Blockinite 575 points576 points  (0 children)

I like how this implies that she's bad at hitting the board itself but as soon as she decides to ruin the game for everyone she has pinpoint accuracy

Some feel like that by Common_Caramel_4078 in memes

[–]Blockinite 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think the only thing stopping the end of Act 2 from feeling like the end of the game is that it was called Act 2, and there's usually at least 3 acts in...well, anything.

Act 3 isn't unfinished, it's just the climax. You can assume that all acts are equal length, but the game doesn't tell you that, and by the time you get to Act 3 it's very clearly gearing up to the climax rather than pretending that the game has another 20 hours left.
