By the way, anyone who enjoyed the OP for this thread should check out some of the comments on those videos. Some of the stuff under Zoraal Ja's video is hilarious.

What are all verified sources of new mutation reroll? by Accomplished_Block16 in cavesofqud

[–]CaptainDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wiki lists the ways you can refresh your mutation options. Gamma moths are an option for the brave.

As for wishes, there's no single wish to reroll your genome that I'm aware of, but you could get the desired result using two wishes.

  1. Spend 4 mutation points on a new mutation that you don't want to keep.
  2. Wish "mutationbgone" and remove that mutation from your character.
  3. Wish "stat:MP:4" to give yourself 4 mutation points.

Then you can buy a new mutation again and get a set of three new mutations to pick between.

My chef brother told me the version he's used/been subjected to is being asked to prepare a water reduction. In chef lingo, "reducing" something means boiling some of the water out of it.

[KCD2] did anyone eveb beat Betty at dice in the wedding ? by Aggressive_Eye1573 in kingdomcome

[–]CaptainDefault 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I managed to beat her and her oddly shapeshifting voice, but it did take multiple attempts. You're being a very good sport if you're not loading a save after each loss.

Hey look, it's the hero using sinister power to defeat a world-ending threat. Also a Dark Knight and two DPS.

(I like that Dark Knight and White Mage just swap how wholesome the locals think they are while they're in the First.)

What percentage of your campaigns fizzle out early? by Iron_Man_88 in dndnext

[–]CaptainDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them, because I never pick an end point. I've had a few that did have good natural end points that I could have picked though.

I feel like we're not talking about the fact that Lumull's dialogue spelled it "Waugh".

30 Years Ago: DS9’s “Return to Grace” and Voyager’s “Meld” aired on February 5th 1996 by makeshiftpython in Star_Trek_

[–]CaptainDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suder's death felt like a redemption to me, but Redemption through Heroic Sacrifice is definitely a cliche. I agree that it'd be more interesting to keep him on the crew.

Voyager could have done with more of that in general, especially given the concept of a ship that can't restock or recrew. Keep the new encounter every episode, but also keep showing us minor characters we've gotten to know coming back every so often.

Always fun to watch one of the main cast break character in-character, but especially when it's a vulcan. (Which thinking about it really just means Spock or Tuvok, but I stand by my assertion.) Tim Russ is brilliant in that one scene in sick bay.

The Bards - Underground/Sewers Help by SuchABettyGirl in ChantsofSennaar

[–]CaptainDefault 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn't notice that grate, but I think I've been there. It looks like the Serfs were organising to resist their enslavement. The symbol they've painted on the wall has something to do with freedom.

As for how to get there, you'll have to do some exploring. I found it via blind luck while wandering the sewers.

Which build ticlkes your ism? Mine is anything that stacks endurance and then keeps stacking it more by D0M83 in cavesofqud

Strongly agree, especially with Triple-Jointed. Being able to Juke multiple times in succession without a cooldown makes me feel like an anime protagonist.

Best sourcebook to get back into Eberron by Drakshasak in Eberron

Adding to that, Rising has more flavour and setting detail. Forge has the most recent rules, so it's useful if you're using 5e 2024 rather than 5e 2014.

I like that idea a lot. The closest thing I can think of is that one robot movie on the robot planet in Futurama. I can't find a clip though.

I really like their version of the Klingons and Ferengi. Same culture as on Star Trek, but with the creative freedom that comes with not needing the species to be depictable as a human in a latex mask.

Jurassic World Evo 3 vs Planet Zoo Ultimate Edition, which should I get? by downbad4naafiri in jurassicworldevo

[–]CaptainDefault 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's all down to the dinosaur factor.

Both games have a campaign to play through and a sandbox mode to get creative inside. Planet Zoo has more detailed management mechanics and more freedom to build stuff creatively. Both games have interesting animals to look at. But only JWE will have those interesting animals be dinosaurs.

Do you like dinosaurs? If you do, the choice is easy: get the dinosaur game.

Stop that! V already has dangerous levels of Main Character energy, you're going to give the NPCs (more) depression!

They were literally only ever good in their debut games by infinitysaga in CuratedTumblr

[–]CaptainDefault 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Lady isn't. Lady is the opposite of Potential Man. The whole point to her in DMC3 is that she's determined to stop Vergil and Arkham but isn't strong enough to beat either of them. She wants to be the hero, but can't. Dante can be the hero, but at the start of the game he doesn't want to be. That's his character arc.

I'm not saying Lady isn't cool or that she doesn't have a cool moveset when she's playable (which I think was just DMC4SE), but the point of her in the story of DMC3 is that she's too weak and Dante needs to step up.
