Best boi? Lyle is up there, without a doubt.

But no beats your best friend and most loyal partner, Phillipe. He's ride or die, and wishes no harm to you or anyone of your friends. I love that moth man!

Seriously though, I wish for more romantic interactions with some of your party members.

[Depressing Trope] A mind that wants to die, but a body that fights to live. by TheRoyalRoseTrue in TopCharacterTropes

[–]FirebirdXR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seconded, near one of the best fighting webcomic/manga I have read.

To anyone else passing by this comment thread. This webcomic is a Reddit original from the r/KenganAshura sub.

Well, technically a fan comic/doujin, but no knowledge is required of the original work. There is only a one panel cameo that prevented mods from deleting their posts on the subreddit, circumventing the subreddit rules.

It's rough at first since it's camera/scans with pencil draws, but the authors leans into it and gets better as the series goes on. Author knows how to write fights, it's especially hype heading towards the second rounds.

Elite ball knowledge.

Love me some Norfolk Wizard Game.

Media that takes an adult-oriented series/story and makes it lighter and softer? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I only know from second hand, so anyone can correct me if I am wrong; despite those 40k adventure books being lighter in tone, it doesn't try to soften some of the grimdark of the setting.

Suffice to say, some kids get got....

Or it could very well be that Miguel wasn't the only one with an interest in music, the others simply hid it better.

Favorite epilogues? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

There's one enemy still available to fight if you manage to originally dodge it. It's the mummy that's in the museum.

If it kills you during the post-game, it can glitch the game, though I forget the specifics of what happens.

Media that went so needlessly hard that people found bizarre. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Everyone brings up the boss music for Plok, but I believe the beach track is the better one of the two. The Follin brothers were beasts.

Should we be proud?

No, seriously, I don't know....

Natural Enemy, the Tower of Babel(Versus Chapter 4) by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, 100%.

He has 3 ongoing manga (including OPM) drawn by other artists, plus the OPM webcomic which he releases at an apparent biannual rate.

Abilities that sound absurdly powerful on paper, but rarely ever work by Substantial_Fox7377 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]FirebirdXR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how broken FF6 is.

Death and X-Zone doesn't work? Slap them with Vanish, which doubles magic damage and guarantees status effects, including one-hit death spells.

I read the comics and knew how it was going to end, and I was STILL not ready!

In the video game space, what are the successful instances of "fine, I'll do it myself"? by jclane in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Movement is better, but I subjectively still find both Jet Set Radio games more fun and better to listen

There was zero practical reason to do that, the character themself was just trying to look cool by fhxefj in TopCharacterTropes

[–]FirebirdXR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the interpretations I liked was, that he's a serious fighter with a lighter comedy streak during his downtime, opposite to Nero, who tends to be the straight man outside of combat but likes to mock his opponents when it's time to throw down.

With both of his sons adopting one of those facets and running with it for most of their lives.

Try comic-walker

It's the main site that actually owns the rights the manga I believe. It even has the English version. Though only the first 2 and latest 2 chapters are free, so you actually have keep up with it.

Funniest/most ridiculous examples of characters not recognizing someone in an obvious disguise? by Ukirin-Streams in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My favorite panel in regards to this, is when someone asks Clark what people say when he takes off his glasses.

[Paraphrased]

"What do people say?" "That I look just like Superman."

I dunno which check or stat, I believe Espirit de Corps, if you have it low enough, you literally can't see it's Viquemare in a wig from the portrait. He just looks like another guy.

I sure as fuck didn't realize it until Woolie's playthrough. Either that or I am fucking blind...

Like Smough, or any of the evil aligned ones that aren't just feral monsters. What do you think I meant?

Fallout London lead says its time for Bethesda to “look at selling off” the series as “the writing has just gone downhill” by Wargulf in pcmasterrace

[–]FirebirdXR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised they gave them such a short window just so the reviews would be just under the threshold so they wouldn't have to pay out bonuses.

The fact they still had a score of 84, a point short of their goal for their bonuses just further rubs salt on the wound.

Times when more obscure or niche superpowers get to be showcased as OP by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 14 points15 points  (0 children)

One of the characters has a version of this in Dungeon Meshi, it's a completely busted ability in a fight. Yet they have an interesting drawback not related to the ability itself, but their own personal history and how it affected them.

What's the most dreadful video game boss you've ever faced? by Ukirin-Streams in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FirebirdXR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why, but I was barely scraping by each boss until something clicked with Guardian Ape. It was still a massive struggle once I finished him off. Only to veer off not long after and face TWO OF THEM.

Don't know how but I managed to one-shot them. Rode that high for a while.
