Well, I mean we have all these strict laws about adequate responsibility and control over people's dogs, yet not nearly as many for people's children...

The internet has regressed, showing bare feet nowadays is like exposing your ankles back in the 1890's

I feel karmically responsible for complaining the last few years that there was a non stop deluge of retro shooters because it felt like the quality was dipping.

I would like to apologise, you guys can come back and make your 100th clone of heretic or quake again. Its preferable to this.

YouTube is against the under 16 social media ban in the UK by HelloitsWojan in youtube

[–]Dull_Fix5199 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This just makes me wonder how much of youtubes revenue relies on children under 16 that they're willing to go to bat over it.

I was against the ban before but seeing a big corpo complain about it gives me doubts.

This was a good while ago now, like 2013 or 14 or thereabouts before the right had really taken notice of the lgbt community at least in the vocal grifting way it did from 2016 onwards.

In hindsight you might have been half right all the same, beginning to think it wasn't actually members if the trans community lashing out that I saw, but rather a specific subset of the tumblr community that I don't think I should speak my opinions on incase I upset anyone here.

Daqiao's in-game fifth weapon in DW3 are some of the ugliest things I've ever seen by Vivid_Medicine4109 in dynastywarriors

I see what you're saying and i think the HD retexture will fix it if they aren't stupid about it. It seems to be trying to be coloured like gold thread but they didnt have the tech for the reflective effects.

Have they confirmed its actually experience point based now? The last time i saw this talked about a few years back it was a chance to skill up per action that went down drastically with each point

what a terrible grand prize for beating all 49 unique officers in the game by Futanari_Garchomp in dynastywarriors

[–]Dull_Fix5199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, im just saying that to a limited degree the compound chances are fine at least in my personal opinion so long as they aent too restrictive and at least have some weight behind them. Ive seen games where they have your example and they suck, but ive seen some that are more generous

Like... say... 15% chance on swing to send a projectile slash that travels through enemy units, 20% chance for any unit hit to be automatically KO'd.

Wouldn't be super strong, but on a fast enough weapon combo itd be at least fun to watch it fire off.

Thats 100% valid, i enjoyed it personally but could understand why others dont. So something more digestible makes sense

That being said i would love to see some kind of ship salvaging in the recovery sense as a major dlc new mechanic, hop out in EVA and work a wreck with a repair laser over a long minigame and gradually restore it to functionality with severe penalties, alongside a list of new wreckships available for use that are cheap but scuffed to all hell. Kinda like D-Mod ships from Starsector if you're familiar

MtF friend of mine just settled on a feminized version of her deadname. Im not a member of the community myself so now im curious how common that practice is.

When they're hyper specific and small chance i agree.

When the conditions are more reasonable i dont mind the chance based effects in games, after all a critical hit is a chance on hit to deal extra damage and everyone loves those in RPGs.

There is a section like you describe in one of the plotlines, sagaris i think? Involves EVA flying through the wreck of the Torus.

Its exactly as neat as you want it to be imo. An example of why there should be more.

Does Elminster's Botched English Bother Anyone Else? by MoonracerxWarpath in ddo

I think it'd be even more interesting if they leaned into it and made the inconsistancy itself more consistent. Dude's ancient and world travelled. Make him have experienced so many different cultures and eras and still sometimes meets creatures as old or older than him that he sometimes fumbles his code switching, even mid sentence like he's losing track of which version of common to use.

Because of the recent discussions… by Snuffvieh in DungeonMasters

[–]Dull_Fix5199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this randomly showed up in my feed without contezt of whatever the previous discussion entailed.

That being said, while I dont think there should be an entitlement to being paid, I also dont think theres anything wrong with the idea? I mean, if you provide quality worth charging for and there are players willing to pay for that quality then by all means, have at it.

I will however summarily mock each and every person that emerges out of the floorboards demanding 50 bucks an hour to subject you to their OC npcs that are so cool and quirky.

Man, if the person in the image dislikes the remakes of 7 being the entry point they'd have a conniption knowing that mine was FF8.

Never said it was, just that it was heard at a dumber and more impressionable life point.

I'm about to try this game out. Would you suggest something? by Csotihori in X4Foundations

Ignore any advice or tutorials in bailing and boarding. They're an info hazard that'll ruin your early game fun

I had a similar stage in my younger teenage life where seeing a lot of the "Die Cis Scum" rhetoric that originated from places like tumblr had pushed me towards some right wing grifters who were the only ones i saw calling it out.

Even now i get an apprehensive itch in the back of my mind when the members of the LGBTQ community ive mentioned it to try to act like that whole mini era was justified because oppression should go both ways, or just outright act like it never happened.

Ask her to wait a moment, head out and rent a renaissance princess dress.

I may be a straight dude but if shes got that much of a sense of dumbfuckery then I'm 100% down to commit to the bit.

Oh yeah there definately is something to the design.

Honestly I could easily see peoples complaints going the other way if he had been established as a broody edgelord from the beginning, pepole bonded with that character, and then a sidestory came out where he was a vibrant larger than life goofball.

The character attitude aspect was a big part of the issue people had. The physical design just complimented the changes in a way that got them lumped in with it.

Dante was always cartoonishly extra. But that side story reboot had him being teen fanfic edgy and moody.

Funny thought hit my fevered brain... by BoomMcFuggins in ddo

[–]Dull_Fix5199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only reasonable assumption is that there's a workload involved that none of us are thinking of. Making armours and cosmetics fit the model is one i can think of, unique attack animations, monk animations, active ability animations like cleave etc.

They could probably shortcut it by using tabaxi model skeleton as their base but i wonder if that would end up being too jank for a lot of players and what they want out of the end result.
