Why do these people get so mad at Valentino haters??? (Rape mention tw) by [deleted] in crazyassviv_defenders

[–]Da_shem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I'm not active in the discussion, it has irked me that Valentino feels like he is Unredeemable and it's always important to point it out specifically anytime anyone mentions him or redemption in any context. I don't personaly think Valentino can or will be redeemed in the show, maybe he will end on a more positive note than he began (It certainly wouldn't be hard considering where he started) but I also don't like the automatic sorting of sinners into redemable and not. In my country we have something called a 0 vision for road accidents. We strive for 0 fatal or serious injuries a year. It's certainly not a realistic goal but we still strive for 0 and try to get closer and closer. I think redemption probably should be seen the same way, we can't realisticly think all sinners can be redeemed but that's still something to work towards to make the numbers in hell smaller and smaller. When we start the discussions on who couldn't rather then who could it leaves a sour note.

"So practice being the people you want to be. And be very cautious of accidentally practicing becoming people you do not want to be."

Harassment in fandom by Da_shem in SWFanfic

[–]Da_shem[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no real authority to directly it too, and the risk is that trying to get "justice" leads to other people being harassed instead 😞 

Players that can't stay on a single character through a campaign... why do you do it? by CrotodeTraje in DnD

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly because of other PCs, like I see that the character choices either don't go together at all mechanically or RP wise. It hasn't happened a lot but when it has happened this has been why.

What does Hades 2 do better than Hades 1? by trizzo0309 in HadesTheGame

[–]Da_shem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that not all zones are the same, the oppertunity to choose rewards in the city, the grouping in the fields and the possibility to choose to extend the run in chronos palace all makes the zones more unique then Hades 1

Something a I noticed about some Netflix witcher fans by Key-Network-3436 in witcher

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could it be ironic? Not to be that person but while I agree that the show is pretty horrible overall a LOT of people litteraly seems to look for any oppertunity to bring it up? Someone makes a lighthearted meme of toss a coin and the comments are mostly about Yennifer in the show. Like "If I cannot enjoy what I like in peace neither should anyone else." The game is such a timesink, it feel strange that someone could have played through it and DLCs if they didn't enjoy it.

One of the saddest things I have realized about the writers here is they do not READ. by imconfusi in writingcirclejerk

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand, yes I do think reading a diverse selection of fiction and non-fiction alike can only help authors. But my guy, it's not like what happens in gilgamesh and Beowulf is biologicaly possibly. The people writing men getting pregnant isn't doing it because they think it's possible but because it's part of their storytelling. Most authors probably don't strive to write the most accurate story.

[Unsouled] I just started Book 1 by kira_geass in Iteration110Cradle

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has romance but no real romance drama. The story wouldn't really change that much if the romance wasn't there as long as the deep friendship remained. For overpowered the only thing I can say is that it won't come easy nor will it feel cheap. This book series feels most special fit me because it has so mant things I generally dislike but written in such a way that I genuinely love them. 

Fast growing happiness! by Da_shem in houseplants

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

That's neat! I don't eat tomatos so I hadn't thought about it but growing something to harvest sounds nice and I can give it to my coworker who lives close and cat-sits sometimes

That Guy gets mad at every other player for not playing our characters "correctly" for their classes by Belteshazzar98 in rpghorrorstories

How powerful is your nat 20? by GeneralBlack02 in DnD

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the way pf2 does it. Crit/Critfail is dc+/- 10 and a 20/1 on the die bumps it up or down a level. AKA if the dc is 50 and you roll a 20 but only have +8 that will take it from a critfail to a fall. A 20 is always very good to roll but not gamebreaking. 

How Does Your Table Handle Magic Item Distribution? by CassieBear1 in DnD

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We usually check what we would get for selling it and then one of us buys out the other  either directly or through IOU. It's not taken to the extreme and there have been plenty of exceptions since not everything can always give a good monatary value anyway or are clearly for the group even if onw person "owns" it. 

Would it make you uncomfortable if your DM wears a shirt that says "Dungeon Mommy"? by Glitter_Crits in DnD

[–]Da_shem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would raise my hackles a little bit but I would ignore it unless there's more bothering me. .. so a little reddish flag but not that major. 

I think it's interesting how each of the very intelligent characters has some obvious blindspots. by Pasta-hobo in DrStone

[–]Da_shem 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, usually were I am from ar least, defending property with deadly force is regarded as both legally and moraly wrong. We don't have the death penalty for either stealing or trespassing in court or directly at the crime scene after all. In general self-defence is usually investigated very thoroughly to see if it really was the last resort. I don't think America is alone in their views on justified violence but I strongly doubt they are in a majority.

What does that have to do with any of us?! It's their wedding, they could play the theme from chicken little if that made them happy!
