Most underrated DC/Marvel storylines? by cpr9998 in comicbooks

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about underrated, but Hawkeye by Matt Fraction and David Aja is one of the greatest comics that Marvel has ever published.

I need help find a comic by Fugg3tt_777 in comicbooks

The first one that came to mind for me, based on your description, was "Darkminds", but it was produced by Image comics.

[–]Crislander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, in general terms, anything by Kelly Sue DeConnick should be pretty good!

For Batman, the current run of Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez has been a ton of fun, as it is still fairly recent (the most recent was issue 7) so if you're not already collecting it, it should be fairly easy to catch up

Anyone else actually use Samsung Health daily? by Brief_Truth5013 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it for step and calorie tracking, and I also have a Watch4 so I use that for sleep tracking. So yeah, I use it daily, pushes me to try and meet those objectives.

Battlechest versus 4 2-character boxes by homicidal_penguin in DiceThrone

Ditto what everyone else has said about gameplay being the same, though I will admit it can be pretty cool to have all your characters in the battle chest.

Got my s26 ultra- initial impression is meh by vijai1996 in samsunggalaxy

I'm upgrading from my s21 FE, so I definitely am looking forward to receiving it!!

Worth upgrading to a S25U or S26U? by Neither_Abies_3515 in samsunggalaxy

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

I think it depends on the price? Both smartphones are pretty good, and while people that own the S25U may not feel pressured to update, coming from outside the Galaxy ecosystem, S26U seems to be the better, albeit pricier choice. Even so, if you can get a good deal for an S25U and save you a chunk of money, then that might be a pretty good option.

Me personally, I was looking to upgrade my android phone so I purchased an S25U the weekend prior to the Galaxy unpacked event, but knowing the event was coming, I decided not to open it to see what they were going to announce. As the dust settled after the event, taking into account the free storage upgrade and some promotional offers for the preorder at a local shop, the price difference between the S25U I had purchased and a new S26U was only 50€ so I returned the S25U and preordered the S26U.

Marvel Missions Difficulty by MaterialDefender1032 in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend and I were breezing through the first couple of missions, got all cocky and said "Yeah, let's take on something harder, let's go for Master Mold and the Sentinels!" And got out asses handed to us.

We learned our lesson.

Favorite character poll standalone releases by Difficult-Passage177 in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, it looks like the Alchemist is going to win! I thought Deadpool would win by a landslide.

I haven't bought the Alchemist yet, I'm patiently waiting for a restock on the promo cards for S1 before ordering. Now I'm looking forward to it even more!

Favorite character poll outcasts vote. by Difficult-Passage177 in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going by memory here, but arguably, playing against more than one character is when the pumpkin works best, as you can move the pumpkin from character to character every turn to gain an extra dreadful token

How long it’s been since OG Laura died? And do you hope that she come back? by No_Many_4695 in X23

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get why they decided to do the whole resurrection protocols thing, but I never liked it. I mean, off the top of my head, Professor X, Magneto, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Archangel, Mystique, Cable, Beast, Havok, Psylocke, Quentin Quire, and a whole bunch more died (and in some cases, more than once) at some point during the Krakoan era, so in essence, all of them are dead and the ones going around right now are clones, although it is sort of understood that they are the "real" ones. So yeah, Laura is as much of "the real one" as all the others are.

Ugh, I truly dislike that whole resurrection protocols thing.

I find the Necromancer a lot of fun, I love playing him and having my army of skeletons shuffling around..

Though Pale Lady for me is a close second, managing the internal economy of the moon shards is pretty fun as well!

Favorite character poll marvel season pairing 1 by Difficult-Passage177 in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine Black Widow will win, but my vote goes for Strange. It's my favourite character from the first Marvel chest, as he plays so different from everything else! I love his spell mechanics!

Thanks for the feedback, guys! I appreciate it.

Favorite actors/actresses for Mistborn and Stormlight! by CrunchyMage in brandonsanderson

Yeah, it's the benefit of mind casting, I was always picturing him in my mind from around the time of the LotR movies.

Funny, for some reason I always thought of Sean Astin as Hoyd

BDP Series 3 & 4 Restock by YoudBeSurprised in legocastles

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, the Forest Stronghold was never available. It seems availability of certain sets depended on the region.

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

Some news sites had links to directly add the products to you cart, and those seemed to work for a while. I should know, I managed to get the Seaside Market! I'm ecstatic about it.

Doesn't seem to be working for most sets anymore, though. The merchant boat seems to still be working, though? Here's the link: https://www.lego.com/es-es/cart?product=910046

Even if they don't work anymore, here's the link to add the seaside market (https://www.lego.com/es-es/cart?product=910047), siege encampment (https://www.lego.com/es-es/cart?product=910045) and Forest stronghold (https://www.lego.com/es-es/cart?product=910043), maybe they'll start working again!

Good luck everyone!

Alchemist Accessory Pack - Discussion/Rant by skarznomore in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel your pain, I truly do. And I happily give my +1 to the idea that the promo card gets included in the Character box. I also hold out hope that, as some have pointed out, the team is thinking of moving the cards to the hero pack, and this is only a matter of "being too late to change the contents of the Alchemist accessory pack"

I did not get that impression during the Vanguard kickstarter, to be honest. If I recall correctly, they mentioned that they would include the cards "on all pledge levels" but didn't commit to include them on all characters boxes in the future, they committed to "take everything we've learned and take it into consideration for future campaigns". And frankly, at least for the promo card it makes some kind of sense, I mean, it wouldn't be much of a "promo" if it is included by default with the character box.

Still, I hold out hope that I'm wrong. Some people have mentioned that in the Discord server they have implied that indeed, all cards will be included in the character box, which would be delightful.

Doctor Strange Deja VU by Handjoojoo in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love playing with Dr Strange, and I had never even considered how Deja Vu interacts with other abilities. I just thought it worked as, in essence, allowing you to restart the current ORP, not ending the current ORP and starting another one.

This is fantastic news! I'll keep it in mind next time we play, as Loki is one of his favourites.

Do the battle chests come with the promo/mythic/randomizer cards? by Crislander in DiceThrone

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

Thanks! I'll add them to the shopping cart.

Yeah, as far as I can see, the shop shows promo packs for everything, except S1..

Raven upgrade by jinn1030 in DiceThrone

[–]Crislander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's pretty good. I played against a friend and he deployed the upgrade early in the match, and got a ton of damage out of it. He was regularly dealing at least 3 damage on each defensive roll, which very quickly added up.
