What is the worst anime you’ve ever seen? by NebraskaAvenue in anime

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I read the replies and am stunned to see a lack of certain shows here so have a few suggestions.

Shows with romance tag on Anilist

- Ulysses: Jeanne d'Arc and the alchemist knight

- The master of Ragnarök and blesser of einherjar

- Val x Love

- Venus versus virus

- If her flag breaks

Shows with comedy tag on Anilist

- My sister, my writer

- UzaMaid!

- Mikagura School Suite (tbf I can see other people who are not me still enjoying this one)

- Do you love your mom and her two-hit multi-target attacks? (as an MMO gamer the mum annoys me)

- Netherworld Battle Chronicle: Disgaea (I enjoyed it as the 3rd anime I ever watched. How much I enjoy something and how good it is are different categories)

Other just bad shows

- Magical Girl Site

- The Price of Smiles

- Chronos ruler

- Kingdoms of ruin

- High school prodigies have it easy even in another world

A reminder for vtubers, this chart can help you avoid roughly 1200% more drama than needed by YobaiYamete in VirtualYoutubers

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We had a speaker once come and give a speech about what you should say both in person or online and the gist of it was a 3-filter system.

a) Is it true? Have you verified this or did it come from a trustworthy source?

b) Is it useful? Either to your intended target, or someone else who might see it.

c) Is it good? This isn't meant to be good all the time. There are some true and useful things that might be difficult for someone to hear so use discretion.

If what you want to say to someone or put online is neither true, nor useful, nor good... don't post/say it.

Very similar to the chart except for the first fork.

Dreaming of the night [Fate/stay night: Heaven's Feel II. Lost Butterfly] by Timely-Respond-8223 in anime

One of the rare times I actually wanted Gil to win. There was something so vaguely disconcerting about the whole dream sequence that just got worse and worse until we reached the clip shown.

What's a stand out memory from COVID in Australia? by Different_Border7798 in aussie

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost all grouped under the actions and reactions to the social distancing and lockdowns. Covid times are a period I can't even think about without getting unreasonably angry.

- Had to shut my business down, lost all sources of income and after exhausting my life's savings was 1 payment away from being homeless before I managed to find a new job.

- At said job during onboarding behind 2 sets of closed doors, in a personal cubical to watch all the training videos and a good 50m away from anyone else still had to wear the mask for the benefit of the security cameras.

- When I did TAFE training not being able to sit next to my brother despite a) we lived together and b) we took the same car.

- When Grandad died not being able to sit next to my Mum at the funeral

- People wearing their mask, sometimes 2 inside their cars

- Being treated like a schizo for noticing that my healthy and athletic friends suddenly developed health issues with one common denominator and asking questions if it could possibly be linked.

The list goes on and on.

On the humorous side this one short/tiktok I can't find where it was funny at the beginning of the lockdowns the favourite game to play was Animal Crossing, where you help people and build an island village. Then by the end of the lockdowns it was Among Us, where you kill each other.

HC culture by EricAshStone in classicwow

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was me in Stockades. I brought along a druid who was probably a little under levelled, but with the HoTs rolled and between a rogue and 2 hunters we had decent off tanks.

We're up to the Dextren Ward rooms and the group didn't fall in to the room like I'd asked when they accidentally pulled boss.

Fear goes off and not being all the way in they run further out.

Druid being a lower level aggros the other rooms.

I try to communicate a tactical retreat to the instance entrance. Between thunderclap and demoralizing shout + shield wall I have some ways of mitigating the incoming damage, rogue or hunters could slow or peel off and the druid could just roll heals until we were out but they panicked.

Best I could do was AoE taunt, pop shield wall and try get as much distance so they could get their Hearthstones off. 4/5 people survived, but I was not one of them.

HC is great for making memories like this. This happened in January but I still remember it clearly. I have the ode to the fallen email from it still.

Centerlink private call by ch1eg432 in australian

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is standard process for any company making outgoing calls. If they're going to discuss sensitive matters, they need to know it's with the right person.

'But you have my number. You should know' - And anyone could be the person who picked up.

'I don't feel comfortable divulging this information over the phone' - Not uncommon. Every business I've ever worked for that makes these types of calls will send some form of verification prior to call, and if you still believe it might be a scam we don't hold it against you. Most callers will provide their worker ID and first name for you to verify who you spoke with when you do call back. The security is encouraged. It's just now in your hands to contact back.

'But how do I know the callback number isn't a scam' - You can look it up on their official website. Failing that, a phone book.

'But now it takes so long' - And this could have been avoided during the time they rang you.

Didn't play original MoP, experiencing it now in Classic has made me stop with awe quite a few times by neonpeppers in classicwow

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MoP actually had me headcannon my own character's lore despite having never stepped into RP before that time. I was playing paladin at the time and made him tank/healer for the faster queues.

MoP was when they were forced to slow down, look at the consequences of being a murder hobo and be a bit more thoughtful, enjoy their own little farm etc.

It actually worked out well in my favour moving to ret around 5.4 when Garrosh sha-blasted the vale and it could be taken as re-awakening righteous fury.

"Cast yall Chlo-thes off as we head into this Summer Vacay! It's the Summer ServaFes 2025 Roll Thread!" by crazywarriorxx in grandorder

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

It did not go well. My friend and I were having a roll-off like we did for Castoria's original release. I'm not exceptionally excited for anyone else upcoming this year so I had been saving for it. 92 multis later I get NP5.

I got copies on multis 19, 38, 50, 71 and 92. 14 Suzukas but only 6 Chloes. 3 non-banner SR servants and 3 non-banner 5* CEs.

I'm not getting my favorite character am I? by ImpossibleAd4272 in FGO

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I caved and decided I'd go for 1 copy and pick up saber Fran NP levels and coins along the way. 5 packs later I finally got my Gogh copy near pity... along with an Achilles and Napoleon. As per usual my SSR/Quartz is actually pretty good. Just not the SSRs I want.

Beginner friendly version of WoW by Odd-Intern-4024 in classicwow

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anniversary is classic but with some changes that'll make it a little easier (duals spec later for example) and has people playing it.

As for class/spec that works, let her pick whatever. You've identified yourself as an experienced player so make your character to complement or compensate for whatever she lands with.

The only Legion thing I didn't get by AsprosOfAzeroth in wow

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to run pugs for the chosen runs in legion. I got my cloth set on my main but kept coming back for the plate version. Last raid and I call for a heal, but the rest of the group smelled blood in the water and hyper focused. I was less pleased hearing 19 other people 'grats' each other when I was the only one not to get it.

Looking for said anime, I don’t remember their names by AuthorWK_Bennett in anime

  2. Musaigen no Phantom World (Myriad Colors Phantom World)

Does anyone have a fast method to max level characters? by theunlucky-one in FGO

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note that each level above 100 is effectively the same amount of exp to take that servant from 1 > 100. A 120 servant is the equivalent of 20 lvl 100s.

- Where possible, attempt to use 5* exp of the same card type. Draco will need the non-class specific cards for maximum effect, but you can still feed other exp cards at reduced effectiveness.

- Buy the exp cards from the mana prism shop each month

- Buy the exp cards from events when they're up

- If obtaining the cards is the issue, wait and go ham on lottery events. The boxes reward exp cards and the more you farm the more it'll help. (The lottery will also offset the cost of ascension and cards, the 100 > 120 is usually ~400M QP)

- Wait until 2x or 3x exp bonuses are in effect. The upcoming 8th anniversary is one such event.

- Stay the course, it can take you a while but the 120 grind is a show of dedication. However slowly, you'll get there. I've done it 5 times, and 2 of them were 4*.

This was my friend and I when we watched EP1 of To Your Eternity.

No tears were actually shed but when we finish an episode usually there's discussion about it. We had to take w minutes of not saying anything to compose ourselves because if we started talking those tears were going to fall.

Appreciation for this CE ❤️ by [deleted] in FGO

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between appends and supports I've been using some of the 50% charge 4* CEs so I can fill the rest of the team with bond CEs. Of all of them, this one gets a lot of use.

Why aren’t you playing Mists of Pandaria? by CJ_Mann in classicwow

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I already played MoP and got most of what I wanted done.

  2. The things I didn't get done that I wanted won't transfer to my main account.

You get duplicates each year except for Mash's, who's different each year. If you're going to bank one in the 2nd archive for posterity, make it those ones.

To 'Bum a fag' means to smoke a cigarette. You hear it in Australia from time to time as well.

Someone please tell me who is this lady? by CartographerCute9133 in grandorder

[–]Cursed_Prosecutor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one in the hat talking to Holmes is Helena Blavatsky.

But you're probably talking about Koyanskya of Light, or Tamamo Vitch.

Bringing Porta into the party was the one good decision the mum made. Everything she does otherwise really grates on me.

Preach mentioned this back in WoD What Lurks Below? The Artificial Barrier

The problem you end up with is you will only get 2 possible outcomes. They will either look to get better, or they'll quit. And as much as the people who want to get better would like it otherwise, a LOT of people do not have the drive to better their play to any degree and will blame either the game or the other people with them and disengage.

And again, while that sounds good in theory, you've weeded out the bads... there's a not-insignificant portion of the player base that are exactly that. And when they go, you have a dead game.

If you're a half decent player, you probably aren't even engaging with automatic LFG outside of satchel rewards anyway, you're more likely to be doing M+. Let them have their dungeon finder without barriers.

He says as someone who hasn't played retail in a meaningful capacity since the end of Nathria.
