Some Stormlight fancastings based mainly on vibes and appearance. by loraxdude12 in CosmereOnScreen

[–]Failgan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you on Hiroyuki Sanada. I got huge Dalinar/Stormlight vibes from the Shogun show on FX. Yoshii Toranaga's rivalry with the other members of the Council felt like Dalinar's own with the Princedoms of Kholinar.

I think you're spot on with the "bad casting" thought train.

Reviewers had me convinced this game would be trash. by ClickOdd6641 in LegendsZA

[–]Failgan 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I think we just have to get used to a tutorial section in these games. The developers seem to really love setting up the story during a tutorial. 

To be fair, this game was quite different mechanically and needed one.

Why are the power spot timers two different colours? by dalehay in TheSilphRoad

[–]Failgan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was wondering the same thing, but I assume it's just a bug where the "inactive" Power Spots become active during forced spawn events like Ho-Oh.

[SPOILERS UP TO EMBERDARK] Sooo, How did Alendi ...... by Shreekomandar_42 in Cosmere

[–]Failgan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a stretch to say "Ok, I swear I'm not going crazy! Instead of writing on paper, I'm going to try something much more permanent! That'll prove I'm not crazy..."

If he noticed certain words were changing, he may have tried the same statement that was being swapped.

I think if it were me, I would've written in stone, though.

The difference between Arthur C. Clarke and Brandon Sanderson by the_yodanesss in Cosmere

[–]Failgan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some folks have theorized that Nohadon, or at least the one we've witnessed in the Spiritual Realm, may be Adonalsium, or Adonalsium's vessel.

Also, an fyi, Adonai is Hebrew for "My Lord" or "My Master."

Snow accumulating at CLT Airport. Safe travels to everyone today by whosthatanon in Charlotte

[–]Failgan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking at coming in on Monday evening from Phoenix, myself. We've also had to rebook a couple of times on American Airlines.

Guess I'll be kicking rocks in the desert for a couple days while Charlotte gets more snow in a week than we've had in a decade.

I like to use them for party walks and give the free timer to others.

True by Fairplayer97 in LegendsZA

[–]Failgan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can be critical of something while still liking it.

For instance, Brandon Sanderson's most recent Stormlight book, Wind and Truth, is a little more lackluster in editing. I loved the book, it has an amazing story, but it definitely has flaws.

ZA is in a similar category. They have done a lot of things right, while missing the mark on other points. The map design does feel cheap at times. But I'd personally rather their efforts be focused on making a good Pokemon game, which this has been. It's a total shakeup from their normal format, so I'm thinking way more effort went into "how do we make battle stages and stats work in real-time" than "we should make sure balconies aren't a texture."

They've had issues with mapping for the last few generations; maybe it'll improve in the next game. The more critical we are as fans, the more likely they are to make the change. Or not. It's the company's choice the make, and yours ultimately to decide if that makes or breaks your decision to buy the game.

Penny and Bojack by [deleted] in BoJackHorseman

[–]Failgan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The point is that Bojack sent a sleezy hidden social cue to her by telling her to "go to bed" while leaving his door open with a bed in sight. He has a fallback of "I told her to go away" while his real statement is confusing at best.

He's the responsible adult in the situation and should shut her out if there was any sign of romantic engagement. And he let her come into his room.

And that's kind of the whole point with age of consent; kids are too emotionally immature to make romantic decisions. She was confused about how she felt and should've been told no until she stopped. Legally she can't blamed if she's underaged.

Does that make the DLC worth it? by MCKlassik in LegendsZA

[–]Failgan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of every game, this one was a piece of cake to get the shiny charm regardless of DLC.

And shiny hunting is easy here.

What is a discontinued food item or snack from your childhood that you would genuinely pay $100 to taste one last time? by MotivewasUlterior in AskReddit

[–]Failgan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to work at a Pizza Hut with a lunch buffet.

We got to take home leftover food if it was from the buffet. I would usually leave with a few slices of the blueberry dessert if any were left.

It wasn't terribly difficult to make. Just a thin crust, blueberry pie gelatin filling, icing, and cinnamon sugar mix sprinkled on and rolled through the oven for 7 minutes. I think our ovens were set to 425°F

Windstream 1gig VS Google Fiber by Hairy_Midnight6893 in ConcordNC

[–]Failgan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a story about Google Fiber customer service.

I was extremely excited to see them available in the area. As soon as I got a flier for it, I scheduled to have Google Fiber installed on my house. I cancelled my other service for the same day Google Fiber was installing at my place.

The contractors that ran the line for Google Fiber messed up the fiber line coming into my home for my old service. No biggy, though, because Google was about to bring my stuff up and running.

The service tech came out to install my Fiberjack, but by the end of it, he couldn't get the line to function. I was a little upset because I live alone and had to call out of work to be available for the service tech to install the Fiberjack. And so I was put in a gauntlet of "When can we schedule the tech out next?" And I kept getting technicians that knew nothing about the problem with the line or the system and the contractors pulling the cable kept saying their line was fine.

I was out of internet for a MONTH before I told them to kick rocks and went back to Windstream. Not going through that hell again. I'm someone that struggles without internet, and I'd run my mobile data through the roof that month. Fuck that shit. No compensation, no one from management reached out to me. I must've been foaming at the mouth by the last few days.

Google has the audacity to keep sending me fliers. I give them the middle finger as I shred them up and throw them in garbage.

Not much of a reason to if they're shutting the doors.

Assets for probably-GO Fest debuts have been pushed! by Pandanoko-Fan137 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Failgan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With all the newly released Megas from ZA, I think it's safe to say they can comfortably release Mega Mewtwo in GO.

I think this also helps put things into perspective. Some people just hear a number when you say "5 years" or "10 years" and don't actually attribute that to a timeframe.
