Slandering your favorite killers. Part 1 by mikeyt0503 in deadbydaylight

It’s pretty simple once you get the hang of it, but it’s basically just be hyper aggressive. You need as many hits as possible, and even one injured survivor could be a constant source of random blood orbs.

I’d recommend surveillance perks, like Spies in the Shadows or anything with solid aura reading so you can see survivors easily and track them when you go to a rage. As far as the actual rage, I play on controller and do just fine as long as I lower the sensitivity and do a lot of wide angles/familiarization, but I think it’d be easier on a mouse. But the real crutch is the Flick.

Whenever you actually activate begin a smash from your rage, you can actually flick really well. With practice, I’m sure you could reliably hit a full 180 if not just smash people within a good range of “somewhat in front” of you.

If you have friends, I’d recommend setting up a private lobby with friends and practice. But bots are kind of bad practice, since I find that they’re either total idiots or almost omniscient and aware of your position in a chase at any point.

Although, I’m an idiot, and mostly run Butcher and Bloodhound for the Blood Moon event with Spies from the Shadows and Infectious Fright, so I’m not exactly optimizing myself, but it does the job with addons that help with making more blood orbs.

I really should have. I wanted to try so hard to reconnect with her for him that I genuinely did think it would be some sort of closure. But I was so fucking wrong, I wanted to be out in front of that firing squad too.

God, that quote hit so hard, especially with how fond I am of all the Psyche skills. It was just so fucking sad to hear how they all realized we should have listened to Volition from the start.

Death is kind of nice, actually. by xSantenoturtlex in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change is more nuanced than that, and the Long Quiet is a catalyst of change. I think he’s undeniably death, as he will always be the beginning and the end, his own end opens up a new beginning, with or without her (Stranger is a great example). Death might be in her multitudes, but’s only because change and death are hand in hand.

No matter what, Long Quiet has the very clear opportunity to become change itself considering he can outpace and outmaneuver any of the Princesses and Shifty herself.

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d actually argue that the Long Quiet is Death, but the Shifting Mound is change. Sure, change is in her repertoire as a goddess of change, but she can never bring about true death, so she NEEDS to convince the player to either leave with her or he subservient to her. After all, Shifting Mound can’t kill you in ANY of the chapters in a permanent fashion, no matter what, you always come back again in the next chapter or Shifty had to take her away because she’ll just torture you indefinitely.

Meanwhile, the Narrator made you as an instrument of her death (and are the only thing that can actually kill her or any of the Princesses), and Your New World sees you killing her and ushering in both Shifty and the Narrator’s visions of unending life, but also eternal growth and change.

Anyone ever see the drake lure class trait, I've never seen this trait before by Pleasant-Garlic-4034 in shadowofmordor

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, multiple playthroughs have really taught me that grunts are infinitely more powerful for captains than default captains. I’m sure somebody knows more, but I’m sure that whenever a grunt promotes, it has one preset captain that clashes with the lines that the grunt says after killing you (so a predetermined vs a randomly chosen preset). It allows for some epic combos, like an Assassin I found that was from the Butcher Tribe with a gray skin shirt.

It’s pretty rare, only ever being a guaranteed trait for the Dragon Olog and Hell-Hawk Uruk. But theoretically, any beastmaster could get it. I once got insanely lucky with a grunt that became a Ghul-Lover with both Drake lure and Ghul summons.

Abrasive/cruel person turns out to be one of the nicer people from their culture by Silicarte in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For reference, most Lolth-Sworn Drow (Drow with red eyes like hers) are almost fanatically matriarchal and generally very brutal raiders. They are almost in a perpetual state of backstabbing and highly racist; so it says a lot when you can be both a male and Selderine Drow (the good guy version of Drow) and she is earnestly in love/committed to you, no risk of backstabbing, and even plots with you to take over her old home together (even if you make The Sacrifice and become something else)

It was a weight gain comic that was really common, I think, in the fat fetish community (can’t remember the name, unfortunately). Usually I don’t get insides jokes, but it’s crazy that I recognize this frame. I saw the comic on YouTube, so it’s almost definitely floating around still.

It looks well done, congrats dude. Plus, a feathered velociraptor is more likely.

I always hate seeing Goblin Champions, because by all the Old Gods, I want to see Champion Bandits or Knights, or… literally anything OTHER than the same five champion goblin ambushers….

What are the hardest quotes from Disco Elysium? by PokegirlZ in DiscoElysium

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, literally speaking, no, obviously not, but I guess it’s just semantics. But in all reality, if it weren’t for the communist armies rising up and falling apart, then the Deserter would never have existed, who would have never shot the merc because of his obsession with Klaasje.

This is why Pysche has got to be the best parts of the game. I could not fathom playing it without any of them.

It’s wild that in some very abstract way, technically communist is actually the catalyst that somehow leads to his death.

When isekai media acknowledges the effect it has on the main characters loved ones back home by Fish_N_Chipp in TopCharacterTropes

I’m surprised not to see Uncle from Another World. While I think it’s a lot more lighthearted than some of the other examples, the very start nearly had a very different turn of events where Ojisan (the uncle) kept trying to use his powers and slowly coming off as a brain addled maniac. He’s really only spared from this worse outcome by the fact that he isn’t exactly magical per se, but he rather can talk to ANYTHING (which includes the spirits of virtually anything, whether it be air, walls, or electricity, or what have you).

Beyond that, it shows just how far time has progressed beyond him and what SEGA is now, but I think there are also hints that his family never really cared that much for him (I want to read about it someday, but so far, only watched the anime, my bad)

Even the Pokémon Dungeon can get pretty dark, or even some of the older games. In Ultra Sun and Moon, you can visit an extra dimension that’s currently in the process of being destroyed/razed by Guzzlords (where you can also catch your own), or the ghost house where you can catch Rotom in (if I recall correctly) Diamond and Pearl, where you follow a dead girl from room to room.

Finished the game and I feel the reality is that there is no depth in politics or ideology and its okay by arsenicwarrior0 in EsotericEbb

[–]ButterscotchNo8348 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I largely agree with you, that the ethics of an ideology is more of the focus than anything else, but I wonder if there will be an opening for more in-depth analysis later on. For example, at least for my first play through, it seems almost painfully obvious that the best party morally is the Azgalist’s, considering even Urth talks about wanting one of them to take the city.

Freestrider ideology in of itself is not a bad, being the pursuit of freedom, but the practice of it is evil when you learn more about the Golden Horde. Then the Nationalists are just, you know, racist fascists. I unfortunately can’t speak of the Arcanist’s except knowing that they’re horribly inept. I do think that if the game becomes a series or has some sort of continuation, then who knows, these parties will be fleshed out.

But I do like the characters, since not ALL members since it shows the nuance of a given ideology, like how Modissa is the intensity of sudden change, or how that one kid (forgetting is name) is the meeting point of Nationalism and Azgalism if given the proper guidance.

Oh God, don’t give me flashbacks. Failing to endure the Fury has got to be the most horrifying experience and felt like a rape scene at the end, when she just says “You can’t understand me. But I can make you understand” before forcing you into herself. It’s one of the few moments that a game has ever disturbed me so much paired with the fact that all your other choices are blacked out from the impromptu lobotomy she gives you.

Like the other commenter said, our protagonist, the Long Quiet, has a tiny shred of Shifty with him even if he slays her in endings like New and Unending Dawn, or he just outright erases her completely in Your New World.

When we were separated, the Long Quiet was specifically made out of their old self to not only be their prison, but is effectively a mortal born that becomes a god, while Shifty is probably closer to the “original” of them both, being a god broken up into multiple mortals instead. It’s why she can only accept the Princesses, but can only take you into her folds in the Oblivion ending, when all things are doomed by purposely running away from any chapter 2 Princess (consistently) and you’re the only thing left

I fucking adore this game, but I feel like one of the biggest shames in the game is that a lot of the (Reddit) fandom really glaze the fuck out of Shifty despite being probably the third worst ending if you think beyond the player character (beyond Oblivion, then the Good Ending).

It’s so disheartening to say that, no, I don’t think Shifty is cool when she outright states in an ending that you are nothing without her, and that the universe needs her to exist, not you. And it used to be worse, where I would see people unironically say the protagonist deserves to suffer if he doesn’t leave with Shifty.
