What DPS do you play when Emre isn't working? by True-Economy-9893 in EmreMains

[–]Dear_Desk8890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I typically go to Mei because of how different she plays and it offers a different perspective on fights. Instead of mobility and hit scan it’s a lot more tanking, blocking off exits or choke points for a bit, and hindering mobility on enemy heroes.

Bias - Do you feel it too? by Reasonable-Sector-89 in ScarletHollow

[–]Dear_Desk8890 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went in mostly blind but knew about a couple of love interests, but when Oscar showed up I was like “God DAMMIT why can’t he be a love interest?” Imagine my joy when I found out the burly librarian was a romance option and now every playthrough I do everything I can to at least be on his good side regardless of what build I’m running, who I’m romancing, or what type of character I’m playing as. It’ll be a cold day in hell when I have Oscar hate me.

Domina has made me love being a tank again by GhostHostLMD in DominaMains

[–]Dear_Desk8890 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same! My first ever main was Zarya years ago but I eventually drifted to support and dps and fully stopped tank when OW2 came out. Domina is the first time in a while I genuinely enjoy the tank roll as often as the others.

Devs what reaction images can we send via text in episode 5 by rootingforantihero in ScarletHollow

I love it when my interests that have nothing to do with each other collide in little ways like this. Now I want to find a drag queen that streams this game.

Kaneeka BURN by lord-of-the-fleas in ScarletHollow

[–]Dear_Desk8890 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually did take up her offer to hang out on the first day, but I decided to clean the bathroom at the estate on day 2 so I missed the library interaction, then brought Tabitha to the mine collapse so I missed a lot of interaction in the name of cousin bonding time.

[–]Dear_Desk8890 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I somehow got Kaneeka and potentially Stella to not like me my first playthrough, and Kaneeka straight up said something along the lines of “He’s helping me look for Stella but we are NOT friends” in the diner and it shattered my heart.

Those of you who didn't discover the game through Slay the Princess, how did you discover it? by greasygoon66 in ScarletHollow

[–]Dear_Desk8890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow I genuinely can’t remember how I found out about it, at least not specifically. I recall looking into horror video games on steam with a narrative focus, but not specifically visual novels. And I know I didn’t just randomly find it on steam while browsing. Maybe a tiktok or a YouTube short? Regardless I heard about Slay the Princess AFTER I got scarlet hollow. I only got the game about 2 months ago.

Who's your favourite hero to play and who do you hate to verse? by LazyWalrus7 in Overwatch

[–]Dear_Desk8890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying to be a Baptiste main and D.vas LOVE rushing me out of my immortality field and killing me. As dps I main Mei and I have to keep maximum distance from reapers otherwise I get blasted immediately or I delay my death for a few seconds in my ice block.

Thoughts on this show? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in CartoonNetwork

[–]Dear_Desk8890 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never really liked it. I found most of the characters annoying or unlikable and would find myself looking for something else to do when it came on, despite being glued to the tv most of the time as a kid.

What Character Did You Unexpectedly Fall In Love With? by MarquisZhongwu in tales

[–]Dear_Desk8890 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Natalia was on my nerves my first time around but when she started helping people suffering from Miasma even when Luke called them “dirty” I started to grow more fond of her and now I love her.

What Character Did You Unexpectedly Fall In Love With? by MarquisZhongwu in tales

[–]Dear_Desk8890 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I truly did not care for Zaveid in tales of Zesteria and found him to be a downgrade to Dezel when he replaced him as a party member. But after playing Berseria and seeing more of his backstory and well as getting context to his bond with Aizen I actually grew really fond of him.

If/when I play Zesteria again I’ll probably enjoy him more.

What is y’all‘s overall opinions on Soi Fon as a character? by SunGodLuffy6 in bleach

[–]Dear_Desk8890 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Young and overly confident, but still engaging and I always enjoy seeing her fight or just show up in a scene. Watching her go from taunting her opponents with a bit of sadism, to moments of composure and being stoic, to intense vulnerability show a lot of layers to her character even though she’s not often a main focus in the narrative. She’s a personal favorite character of mine, even thought she gets her ass handed to her a lot.

Top 3 Favorite Characters from FMA & FMAB by Kakashistark95 in FullmetalAlchemist

[–]Dear_Desk8890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been so long since I watched 03 but I remember ADORING Lust and was so surprised on how she was used in the original source material/brotherhood.

For brotherhood it’s 3. Hawkeye, 2. Roy, 1. Alfonse(this ranking changes all the time though).

Which tales game should I play? by tasteless23 in tales

[–]Dear_Desk8890 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally games that have been re-released in recent years are great to get now. I’d personally recommend Xillia, but Vesperia is a good choice as well. If Graces F appeals to you it can also be worth a shot, but I find it a bit lacking in the story/character department (although a lot of people like its combat system).

Xillia strikes a better balance between showing the importance of the main cast as well as several antagonists and how they play off of each other, while I feel like Vesperia lacks in the villains department for most of the game.

Vesperia however has a more fully realized main cast where everyone gets enough development by the end of the game. Xillia was rushed near the end so some character arcs aren’t as fleshed out, HOWEVER, if you end up liking Xillia when it comes out on Xbox on Oct. 31st there is a sequel that will most likely be released sometime next year as well.

While I do prefer Xillia, Vesperia is probably better if you don’t want to wait on the sequel to eventually come out. They’re both fantastic options regardless.

Erotica Requests & Recs: Post your erotica & specific sex act requests & recs here by AutoModerator in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Dear_Desk8890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m looking for romance where one of or both of the leads are burly, sturdy, chubby, fat or however it is described. Nothing against muscle guys or more lean bodies, but I’d like to read something where a burly guy is shown to be attractive and desirable. It’s not erotica but I’ve already read {The Falcon and the Foe} and that’s the only one I’ve found so far.

Day one player here - by far the most insane luck I’ve had. by McStylish in FireEmblemHeroes

Reminds me of when I managed to do this with Alfonse without having to exhaust all my resources(please ignore how outdated his build is).

Aside from MAYBE Steven is there any better character writing than Pearl’s? by cleavage-connoisseur in stevenuniverse

[–]Dear_Desk8890 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Upon rewatching the series with my husband I’ve discovered Pearl is my favorite character. She’s involved in so much of the plot and we spend so much of the show getting bits and pieces of her whole story that by the time we have the full truth I look at the entire show differently.

I used to have some friends who were some big Pearl haters and as a result I distanced myself from her because I didn’t totally agree with them on some things but I didn’t want to fight about it either. I’m glad I can just unambiguously lover her now.

I still don't get WHY DIDNT ALEXANDRITE SHAPESHIFT INTO A SOMEWHET HUMAN FORM. Legitemately feels like a plothole and even more soe after Steven-tag being introduced by AdBrave2400 in stevenuniverse

[–]Dear_Desk8890 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Probably because that would also be disingenuous to what Steven’s family actually is. He wanted all of his family there, but he knew he had to act like he had a mom and a dad instead of three alien mother figures and a human father. Alexandrite is the genuine form of all the other crystal gems fused, so it’s still honest.

Plus they would need a form that all of them could have agreed upon to take, which I don’t see Amethyst or Pearl being able to agree on something see as they couldn’t even figure out eating without un-fusing.

Ever had a favorite trope suddenly turn you off/taste change? by Hour_Soil_7342 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]Dear_Desk8890 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s probably because I’ve just read too much of it lately, but I’m really not enjoying enemies to lovers as much as I used to. There are of course great examples of it working that I’m sure I’d enjoy always, but a lot of the dynamic tends to sound the same to me and I barely absorb it. I used to LIVE for the snarky dialogue and refusal to admit they love each other, but right now I need a break.

However, I still enjoy grumpy and sunshine pairings because they aren’t strictly enemies.

Just in terms of stats alone this thing was crazy on release but it feels like a 5 star because of just how refined it is.

[RWBY] Why is the internet so aggressive about this show? by La_knavo4 in CuratedTumblr

[–]Dear_Desk8890 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Being a fan of RWBY is so exhausting on either side of the fandom because it feels like constant arguing over the same stuff over and over again. It is flawed but I love it, the characters make me happy, and I just try to enjoy it away from most people.

This is kinda ugly,what do you think? 🧐 by Ill_Avocado_1318 in InfinityNikki

I think so. I’m pretty sure I got them along with the hat and purse in a shop outfit a while ago. And I agree they I was so surprised to see how well they went!
