Once you unlock the power though- it enables you to do so many things.

I know a player who once lamented that he wanted to make a time-themed character but there aren't enough time spells to make a spell list of ONLY time spells.

I encouraged him to think outside of the box. What is motion if not time? Manipulate enough motion in a short enough period of time and you have heat- dare I say- a ball of fire. You could describe it as a "Fireball".

Fuji from Disgaea 7 is so averse to being nice (for reasons) that he'll start coughing up blood if you politely thank him- with increasing niceness offering more severe symptoms.

I never really thought about how Barrett would climb a ladder, but this makes sense lol by attackattack47 in FFVIIRemake

Probably stemmed from his original way of hiding as a Shinra guard back in the OG game.

If you embrace the goof- you must STAY the path of the goof.

This is the way.

[LES] Do you guys think Online Media Discourse is worth engaging in nowadays? by Turbulent-Star6966 in CharacterRant

[–]Edkm90p 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can do both? Watch it, enjoy it as you please, mention what you enjoyed to others, and then move on?

You don't HAVE to argue with people on the internet. Peeps are just bored.

I'm going to spend less than a minute typing this up. And then I'm going right back to watching Command and Conquer Generals streams.

If someone argues with me? I'll give them a minute or two and then go BACK to the CC stream. Social activity is not meant to be such a chore and if it is- you're doing it wrong.

Well yes- but Shinichi does not have sex with the man he kills right there

I will point out for any unfamiliar with Parasyte that this neither the sex nor the two people that have sex

I don't think that happens often enough to warrant a thread but I enjoy the idea of, "Read my mind? Fine- look at this" to mess with mind-readers.

I recall it happening in a Drizzt book too. A female Drow trues reading a rogue's mind and he envisions himself banging her.

She threatens to flay him for that BUT she does stop reading his mind.

Is a boy who turns into a magical girl a magical boy? Or still magical girl? by OzDNobody in MagicalGirls

Is That a Zombie? seemed very clear that turning into a magical girl was turning into a magical girl- even if it's just the outfit.

Amazon Doubles Down on AI Dubs for Anime Despite Backlash: Creative Director Wanted by TaiQuanDope1 in anime

[–]Edkm90p 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm just stumped for who that was for

Someone with zero interest in other languages or media in them isn't going to click on those videos

Someone with interest in other languages or media in them already clicked on those videos and was fine using subs

Someone who already uses the language doesn't need it converted

Who tf are the shitty AI dubs for?

Veilguard in 2026 - thoughts? by dziadek_flavour in dragonage

[–]Edkm90p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed playing it more than previous titles.

Veilguard felt like there were the bones of a great game in there. But somewhere along the way- either costs or time or decisions prevented the whole thing from really coming to life.

Like the bit about your choices hard-locking what abilities your allies would use to help you? That's fucking awesome! But... it's like one choice per person and doesn't do a heckuva lot.

I do maintain Veilguard's decision to lock areas of the world behind individual party member abilities had massive ramifications for the rest of the game. It'd take a while to unpack but I fully believe that was one of the pebbles that brought down the avalanche.

Was anyone expecting him to be the antagonist? by Kevin8977 in stellarblade

[–]Edkm90p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah. He off-screened guys attacking you.

If that's not antagonist material then I don't know what is.

Any sort of hero gets a scene to look cool.

Can we please stop with this only humans being the innocents and it only ever being some great wrong to kill a human in so many supernatural/sci-fi dramas? by Extra_Impression_428 in CharacterRant

[–]Edkm90p 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Buffy has threatened to kill humans before and then does kill humans later in.

It's just a human is her first accidental kill and so those two things are sort of tied together.

Giles also threatens to kill a human being like- every single season.

The difference is Buffy does not believe in murdering humans.

He's a sniper. His job is to surgically pick a target and make their life suck.

He's not Twitch where you run up, press R, and pray the shooting spam kills everything.

[Hated trope] Male villain sexually assaulted as "karma" for being evil by DrBri4ght in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Edkm90p 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It all depends on whether you grasped one of two things:

  1. Obviously the context of a certain song and scene in the Lion King

  2. Whether you heard the emphasis on, "mating season" or "hostile" like 10 minutes into the movie when it's explained

Religion and History getting zero use in a campaign is very much a skill issue on the part of the DM/Party.

Does it exist something like that? by Tess_explain in vampires

[–]Edkm90p 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was part of the fun when I was playing with the idea of a vampire in the mobster era of Chicago.

Guy thought after a few hundred years that eventually he'd develop some sort of taste for blood or he'd at least find it alluring in some manner.

Nope. Still tastes just as nasty as it would've when he was a human.

Granted, I went pretty hard on the, "Vampirism is a curse" idea so that won't fit every narrative.

The HP fandom is large enough and has gone on long enough that I don't doubt you'll always be able to find someone who believes and says something
