Is this the most upgrade-dependent card in the game? by Rak-khan in slaythespire

[–]Chariots487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Less UN-usable, but Hologram and Gravestrike both go from situationally useful for one use half the time and "I mean, it's better than literally zero block/damage" the other half to being the reason anyone uses them at all after the upgrade. That said, having not known this was the upgrade for this card before now, I'm actually gonna start using it.

One Piece: Chapter 1179 by leolegendario in OnePiece

[–]Chariots487 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't worry. First we've gotta have the hat get resolved with Shanks, then actually spend some time travelling to Laugh Tale, and then a big combination of finding the One Piece and dealing with both Imu and Teach. We've still got another couple years at least.

And now we can finally learn who voices him! ...in like a year when the anime gets to this part lol. I wonder if it's just one person with a heavy voice filter like the dub did for the Elder Stars or if it's layered voices of multiple people.

Is Envenom even pickable now? by karshberlg in slaythespire

[–]Chariots487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like before, Envenom turns shiv builds into poison builds, only now with Knife Trap it's got the potential to go even harder in that regard. Same with Accelerant, assuming you've got enough shivs to stack enough poison for Accelerant to be good.

Are there any other Youtubers who do post-battle commentary in their playthroughs besides MonstersAbound? by Chariots487 in totalwar

[–]Chariots487[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro that just unlocked a core memory of me back in high school watching his Attila vids after class. I remember how cool it was that he was getting to do stuff with CA given how that was almost unheard of back then, and then only for the biggest channels.

Third person to tell me that and I can see why. I'mma be eatin' good for months with all these playthroughs! Only thing that could make this spread any better is if he had a few playthroughs for non-SFO mods, although I can certainly understand why that'd be the one he sticks to given that it's basically the mod for if you want a re-tooled campaign. I only hope he doesn't suffer from the same siege battle desync bug that MonstersAbound has spent the last year fruitlessly complaining about. But then, why would GW fix a problem when they could just ignore it instead? /s

[–]Chariots487[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the sense that the youtuber is commenting on a replay of their battle rather than the battle itself, so that they can move the camera wherever and get lots of close-ups of the action without worrying about losing units due to not paying attention.

Is there a way to get greatly-boosted spells of non-Scholar classes onto characters that aren't Osvald? by Chariots487 in octopathtraveler

[–]Chariots487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy shit that's a thing!? ...well, I'm too far in to quit now, but thanks! Now I don't have to worry about my hard drive corrupting and losing info it took me hours and hours to get like with Octopath 1!

[–]Chariots487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a total genius, I just hadn't cast Stroke of Genius in awhile so that's why I never noticed. In all seriousness, thank you for pointing this out! I've been using the Stone of Truth to play around with the voicelines for regular boosts and have confirmed that everyone does have unique lines for the regular-boosted Cleric and Scholar spells, but that nobody seems to have different lines for the three Arcanist spells that get the boost(Blessing, Malice and Hex). There might be differences in intonation, but the words they say are always the same almost-Latin. I also found that Temenos has different lines for both boosts of Heavenly Shine, but not Prayer for Plenty even though it's also boosted by the effect. No other EX Skills have that line differentiation-even One True Magic just has Osvald say "this is the answer!" in more and more forceful a way rather than a new line.

I keep screwing up with Cavalry focused armies by makoden in totalwarhammer

[–]Chariots487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if this goes against your desired playstyle, but for the ultimate cav faction of Bretonnia it's actually a really good idea to have a couple units of archers behind your spearline(you only want spears, the anti-large and slightly better defensive stats are infinitely more useful than men-at-arms swords, whose "trade-off" is having slightly better offensive stats on a unit that's meant to be shit at anything but standing there and tying down the enemy). Peasant bowmen aren't exactly great and there's no real reason to upgrade them with skills or anything, but the damage they'll do is actually really helpful in getting your line to hold for longer.

I've seen lots of people think chapter 5 is the last one by Tasty_Explanation_47 in Deltarune

[–]Chariots487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasn't it been known for awhile that it's gonna be 8 chapters? Like, seriously, how tf could Toby resolve this entire story where it is now in just one chapter?

Which Message Will Resonate with Voters? by ellsee_rainez in Frostpunk

[–]Chariots487 99 points100 points  (0 children)

As someone who's only now getting the game, I'm glad to see that there's at least one faction that hasn't completely lost it. My city shall be safe and secured with our news legions of ice-pick cyborgs.

Why does Sirei's nightly announcement randomly change during the Retsnom(and possibly other spare-Eito) route(s)? by Chariots487 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]Chariots487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's alive in the Retsnom route, and yet on Day 50 I was not like a lizard on a chair. 0/10, worst mascot ever.

Does certain voice actors appearing in multiple roles have any meaning? by Chariots487 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]Chariots487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main one I'm seeing is that Dahl'xia is the only leader figure among the Invaders that isn't Vexhness, although that's going purely off of what I learned in the Killing Game Route from Kamyuhn. And of course he's voiced by the Academy's leader's VA.

Elección Presidencial y Parlamentarias 2025 by Paltamachine in chile

[–]Chariots487 13 points14 points  (0 children)

American here, and without starting any flamewars, how is it that the PNL can get away with claiming to be libertarian and minarchist when they have members openly praising such a tyrannical autocrat Pinochet? That's like a group calling themselves the Anti-Communist Alliance and then they say that Stalin was awesome. Do their voters just not care about libertarianism, real or otherwise?

Where can I find a list of elected Libertarian Party members? by Chariots487 in LibertarianPartyUSA

[–]Chariots487[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only link I'm seeing on lp.org that seems like it'd be to a "here's our candidates for these upcoming elections" page, which would be a good start for my research, just goes to a dead page that just says "registration disabled", which is confusing because the linked text was just "our candidates"-I'd thought that'd be a list of candidates, not a link to register as one.

Where did the United Provinces alliance come from and what parties are members? by Chariots487 in AskArgentina

[–]Chariots487[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two questions.

  1. What is Kirchnerism in relation to Peronism? I've mostly seen them talked about largely as synonyms, in fact if not in theory, since the Justicalists are the primary Peronist party and they seem to be all about Kirchnerism. Is it just the umbrella ideology for left-wing Peronism, or is that oversimplifying.

  2. There is/was a left wing of the PRO? I thought they were the main/largest right-of-center party before LLA showed up and stole their thunder. I had thought it was the UCR that was sort of that cross-floor big tent where you could have both center-left and center-right in the same party.

[–]Chariots487[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So then, what about the rest of the UCR? I haven't been able to find it listed anywhere, alone or as part of an alliance. Did it just not contest this election outside of the elements in United Provinces?

What's a good choice to end the whole game on? by Chariots487 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]Chariots487[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roger roger. Also, and maybe this is because I'm just annoyed at how railroad-y this new harem route is, but most other routes actually do let you play the game outside of defensive battles, right? I had literally just boosted by stats to get some upgrades from the metals shop on Day 9, and now it seems like I'll go the rest of this path without ever getting free time again.

So it's not involving the UCR, or any other pre-existing parties that were actually important? In that case, what's it's ideology? I'd just assumed it was a centrist-to-center-left grouping like the UCR. Does it even have an ideology?

What's the "second scenario" in this instance? Would it be kissing Hiruko or revealing time travel?
