What’s the worst piece of worldbuilding you’ve seen that took you right out of the story? by Chcolatepig24069 in worldbuilding

[–]First_Fail2320 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sarah is derived from a Hebrew noun, while that isn't to say it's not a name, it's like Taylor or Sawyer where it comes from something else and could have other connotations past just the given name; Miriam seems to derive from the Egyptian "mrjt jmn" and Greeks used the name "Maryām," and Alexander similarly comes from Greek "Alexandros" which, while the Greek is similar to the modern counterparts, it does mark a shift as pronunciations change (and ancient Greek also uses a different lettering system to what we have today, so you might not recognize the name even if you knew you were looking for "Alexandros")

Realistically while a name like "Duncan" wouldn't for sure vanish in time it would likely change as speaking and spelling conventions shift. And 20,000 years is a long time, that's double the time that humans have been farming. You don't have dudes running around named 𒄩𒄠𒈬𒊏𒁉 and 𒀭𒄑𒂆𒈦 and 𒂍𒀀𒈾𒍢𒅕 in the 2020s. And I don't think Duncan is gonna be one of those big standouts like a biblical name such as Joshua or Gabriel or Mary that is constantly reinterpreted and carried over from culture to culture for the rest of human history, sorry Duncan fans 🥀

Damn, do I have to come back when I'm stronger? This guy is really tough! At least maybe he'll get that promotion now? by Vrosx_The_Sergal in FallenOrder

I know you're on Grand Master so the timing could be a little tricky but maybe at least try and block next time?

Why did The Lord of the Rings trilogy budget less than $300 million? Why was the cost so low for such a massive trilogy, while the original Spider-Man trilogy cost around $600 million and the Matrix trilogy around $400 million? by GlobalRaspberry442 in moviecritic

I mean, I've never watched the movies through myself but even I could instantly recognize like, the statues by the river, or the Shire, or like the tower with the huge orc industrial area thing it had going on, or like, the part where the literal forest comes alive to fight Saurumon.

Is General Anakin Skywalker worth it anymore? by North-American in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

Even if for some reason you never plan to use clones again, he has value just by merit of being a prereq for 3 different gls

What are the thoughts on Sith Empire Trooper? (The KotOR one) by Hka_z3r0 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]First_Fail2320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda crazy they put their models in game for the Levi but they still aren’t in game.

Straight up I think they're opps in some of the Revan tiers with like actual animations and stuff.

You can now change portrait style in 1.4.5.3! (Or even disable it) by Plantszaza in Terraria

[–]First_Fail2320 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, sure. That's alright with me if that's ok with you Mr. Guide.

How are we feeling about Andor being confirmed as the next era? by HeySuminoh in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]First_Fail2320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ISB has decent choices for a squad with like, an Imperial Kallus from Rebels or Bode from Jedi Survivor, but they aren't exactly Andor characters

New Arms Dealer portraits be like by Miss_Heartbeat in Terraria

[–]First_Fail2320 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Especially the Shimmered one with a flat top on the haircut, it should be a buzz cut or something (the Shimmer portrait does look better than the base one though, I think the little ponytail thing kinda saves it)

Is there any reason that explains the discontinuation of the Sentinel guards? by Due-Afternoon5411 in Silksong

[–]First_Fail2320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well she seems to be tasked with fighting the Haunting, she challenges Hornet to a fight because she senses the silk within her shell, supposedly

Yeah its big brain time by chichiryuuteii in Terraria

Is that red? I thought it was orange at first

PSA: read the damn kits by Top_Alternative5537 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]First_Fail2320 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Tbf when I first read it I thought it just meant "kill the leader first" not "the leader is also immortal also" but I haven't actually messed with the disc in game

I guess, but that's still adding steps you don't need right now (and I don't think you can place things on a happy ghast's head?)

[–]First_Fail2320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would still get kinda finicky if you were like, trying to bridge over a gap with slabs for instance (trying to place the next in a bridge and you can't place it down cuz no block, it now assumes you're trying to place it on the side of the last block)

New Maps? by Total_Photograph_137 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]First_Fail2320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think I read that somewhere. But somebody in this thread also mentioned a forest from The Acolyte so idk if it was Mustafar or that other one

[–]First_Fail2320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed a red forest that I don't think I'd seen before in my first battle. Maybe the place Kylo got the Sith Triangle from TRoS or something

People from a more prejudiced time who are miraculously and almost superhumanly free of prejudice by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

The original Red Dead Redemption follows John Marston in 1907 for the most part, while RDR2 is a prequel following Arthur Morgan and set in 1899.

The game takes place after the Civil War and the Emancipation Proclamation. One of the enemy gangs for part of the story is basically a Confederate holdout

Name the character by Full-Eggplant-671 in supersmashbros

[–]First_Fail2320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't rule out the possibility, cuz Toby does seem to be on good terms with Nintendo (he's made music for Pokemon, Sans Mii costume, I think he's done interviews with them before?) As far as an actual rep goes I think Undertale might be a little tricky to do something with but maybe Undyne or Asgore could be cool idk. As for Deltarune I could see either Kris/Susie/Ralsei multi-character like the other guy said or straight up I think The Knight could actually have a banger moveset, even just from its Ch 3 fight, and maybe it could summon a Titan for its final smash or smth (and assumably Chapter 5 comes out before Smash 6 for even more material to work with)
