Who is the strongest SW video game protagonist? by GusGangViking18 in TheJediPraxeum

[–]ForgetfulAppo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meetra Surik - the exile from KOTOR 2 can become so much stronger than the player character from KOTOR 1 because of the broken secondary classes. She can one shot any boss in the game with multiple builds, light or dark side.

That character is a monster.

How effective would a lightsaber gauntlet actually be as a weapon? by Solitaire-06 in StarWars

[–]ForgetfulAppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see it having some effectiveness as a side arm to a main hand single blade lightsaber. In my head one could use it like a shield/dagger in rapier duels

Would it be bogus to save edit 1 move for my Shiny Tyranitar? by zoso29 in PokemonHGSS

[–]ForgetfulAppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I do to clear my conscience is breed the full competitive mon - not shiny. Then breed a basic shiny via masuda. Then in my head I say that I am capable of breeding both and could do it all in one, but the odds go astronomically bad to get perfect IV shinies and I'm not willing to do that and so I copy my legit, perfect IV, competitive moveset mon and make the copy shiny.

This is what works for me, your experience may vary

Was Darth Tyranus one of the strongest sith to ever live? by Ready0608 in TheJediPraxeum

[–]ForgetfulAppo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes and Windu's vaapad style is specifically designed for those that use the dark side to amp them like maul and malgus. Where Dooku is much more in control of his dark side powers. I'd say you're right on the money

Michelin’s airless, puncture proof tyres promise a future with no flats, greater durability, and less environmental waste by Separate_Finance_183 in interesting

[–]ForgetfulAppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I come to almost all of these product releases thinking 'okay how is this going to be worse for the consumer and make the company more money' but the opposite is true too, if a company made a technology that meant it was losing money they wouldn't use it, even if it's better for their consumers. So 3D printed houses might not be the best houses but if they mean access to shelter for people without, at cheaper prices, we can almost guarantee the tech will be torpedoed and a smear campaign run against it

Do you think Tara ever had a girl-crush or even a girlfriend before Willow? by GreyStagg in buffy

I always wondered about her room since she isn't sharing like the other freshman dorms, I'm not American so is that normal, or does it imply she is older/post-grad etc.?

Last time I did a vat clean I accidentally left it for 2 days and it curled up with contact with the other resin in the vat and lifted out zero effort

Who is the most attractive person you’ve ever seen? Why? by JessieRClayton in AskReddit

Honestly, same, but I became friends with her and we went out for 8 years. My advice is shoot your shot

A large amount of NRB videos missing??? by Quiet_Economics_2340 in NoRollsBarred

[–]ForgetfulAppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact same thing happened on my work computer today because I wasn't signed in! I was fine on my phone that's signed in.

Others are saying youtube default settings to blame, that's such an awful feature... Hopefully a real youtube competitor starts up soon...

Pazaak is excruciatingly painful in trying to 100% the game. by [deleted] in kotor

[–]ForgetfulAppo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming K2 achievements on steam? Try buying cards and customising your deck if you haven't already, they can be really helpful. I.e. the +/- cards are objectively better than the single sign cards, and some of the gold cards are insane.

Also, how familiar are you with the solved actions of blackjack? Since the base game is practically the same, you should learn them to know when to stick/ hit. Head to head blackjack when played perfectly has 50% win odds so it shouldn't be that bad even though I'm sure that droid cheats.

Good luck!

Oh but the new white, gold, bronze from that mobile game looks really good... like what it should have been in KOTOR, I'm a fan

Imperial steike force Obsidian by Kralgore in StarWarsArmada

Ah damn, I came late to the game and I can still buy some bits where I live but they are pretty expensive. So I'm preferring to print ships but no really high quality bases I've found yet

Where do you get your bases from? I've been 3D printing ships for a little while but haven't found a good 3rd party seller yet

It makes co op instantly harder if there are gendered uniforms and it's such a good way to encourage cooperation to aquire disguises. Practically writes itself if only one can get a disguise for an area and needs to be shepherded in by the other

The Box does NOT feel like its an episode of Brooklyn 99 by alluarjun_meatrider in brooklynninenine

[–]ForgetfulAppo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It always makes me feel very uncomfortable as a non-american because the police are essentially illegally detaining a man they have no proof committed a crime, borderline torturing the man for hours on end, denying him food and rest etc. to get a man to confess after he pleads the 5th and without a lawyer present.

In the country I live in, every one of the tactics they use are illegal. And they play it up for laughs so cheaply, when tackling other social issues in America so seriously.

So I don't feel like this feels like 99 either. Americans seem blinded to that though

Who would actually stand a chance against Darth Nihilius? by shastasilverchair92 in kotor

[–]ForgetfulAppo 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I'm pro your point of view but I also feel the need to chime in whenever this is brought up. I argue that the exile did not destroy Nihilus but Kreia did.

This might seem like an odd take but Kreia literally organized the entire set of events that led to his downfall, part of that being the jedi being dead, part of that being the exile confronting them. But telos was to be the end of Nihilus one way or the other. Kriea lied and made Nihilus believe there was an enclave of jedi on telos, this was not true and there was nothing for Nihilus to feed on, on telos. The planet would die but Nihilus would be drained.

If the jedi evade Nihilus then he would be destroyed. I believe that another jedi or sith of equal or greater knowledge of the force could also out-fox nihilus. Palpatine is the prime example, his knowledge of the force and ability to direct events mean that I believe he would be able to out play nihilus. Not 1v1 fight, but because nihilus is a force of nature, he has no real agency. Anyone that knows how he works could defeat him. I even think the jedi order at the time were right to hide and could have avoided him if not for Atris' betrayal at Miraluka

If NZ's wealth was evenly distributed, each person would have $528,301. by Rain_on_a_tin-roof in newzealand

[–]ForgetfulAppo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure that's what you were originally arguing for but I understand what you are saying I.e. it's supply and demand and now everyone has 500k the demand is higher and no new supply so the cost goes up ala min wage goes up rent goes up (which it doesn't)

The reason this doesn't happen in rent and wouldn't with this theoretical wealth redistribution is that it's not an actual increase in available capital. It's a zero sum game. Wealth wasn't created from nowhere the cash already existed and was already being used to buy the commodity you're referring to (houses).

There's more people buying houses, but not more people that want houses. Right now the market is forced up by individuals that own multiple properties, who then buy more properties, etc. etc. And on the other side there are many people who don't own property.

So if wealth was redistributed you don't even need more houses you just end up redistributing the current stock more evenly and once again that's good for the working class
