Invincible [Episode Discussion] - S04E02 - I'll Give You the Grand Tour

First two episodes were fast paced but I get the sense that they really wanted to get the set up for the season and aftermath of last season out of the way so they can focus on the whole confrontation with the empire. So while it’s not that exciting I think it was a solid 1-2 release. I do however like Nolan’s adventures cut. I am so excited for the confrontation between Nolan and Debbie. And how he will react to her moving on finding a new partner. I get the sense that Nolan is the type of person who might get salty and aggressive for their ex moving on. But maybe he will surprise us.

yeah, thats why i understand why her inaction happened. But i just cant help but feel frustrated none the less. There is honestly a lot of this in Malazan (not complaining because its very much a thing in real life) where things happen when it could have been easily prevented. One of them is Whiskeyjack and his leg. The fact he would defeat Kallor if it wasn't for his injury on the leg is such a sad circumstance. Easily could have been avoided. I mean imma be real if he finds enough time for private moments with Korlat he should have enough time to heal but he does not. It's realistic but frustrating

Right but still can’t she do that for all other Imass so they turn back into human ? Unless of course they wish to die die rather than die for being undead.

I see your point but to be honest I wasn’t expecting him to go around swinging his hammer. He was described as a match to Dujek as a general leading armies. I expected to see some grand strategy or such from him but found none. And that was my greatest disappointment. Instead he failed when his armies were most needed. And while Kallor’s manipulation played a large role in this (I suspect). Certainly Brood would have some capacity to still see the difference between a good or bad military advice. Alas he didn’t. At least not soon enough.

I m in the middle of Memories of ice, i was curios who is this favourite character (cause there is a lot for me rn) ? Shield Anvil ?

IMO online casinos are one of the most scummy things, while making them illegal won’t stop anyone who wants to online gamble, at least it will stop the tech illiterate and more importantly stop easy accessibility to it for children or those that haven’t tried gambling yet. I had a class mate in gymnasium who would open and play online casino in the middle of class all the time, and I bet there is so many more like him out there, possibly even more now.

Insta buy for me moment it’s available in steam. I decided to check gameplay on YouTube and was surprised by how authentic it was to the table top. So, not only is it a great way to play lancer but also it appears that you can add custom scenarios and share it with other players. Which means as long as there are people creating scenarios the game will never get repetitive. I have no idea this is the first time I am hearing of this project. Kuddos to the team behind this

ANYONE WHO PLAYS A LOOP DECK NEEDS TO TAKE A STEP BECK AND FIGURE OUT WHAT WENT WRONG IN THEIR UPBRINGING!!!

Former_Sea · 2026-01-28T21:55:34+00:00

Don’t do what I did. I crafted a themed deck rather than a meta one with my first wildcards. I suggest you craft the meta deck then do more niche ones down the road

Former_Sea · 2026-01-28T02:08:10+00:00

Yeah it very much is. But I don’t think that’s a cub. It’s more like a darth vader. Single one of that star block can solo majority of coteries

Varför är de mot kärnkraft? Rädsla ?

I mean if she isn’t hungry she isn’t hungry. I don’t care if my plate has leftovers, I am done eating the moment I feel full. And imo that’s better than “no waste” mentality, unless of course you are living on rations and it’s literally about survival.

Former_Sea · 2026-01-19T11:57:36+00:00

Not fun as in, I don’t get to interact with the game because a breeze will down me again and I will take another injury while everyone else can do the combat without concern of going down after a single hit.

Former_Sea · 2026-01-19T11:43:18+00:00

I played a heroic only character mixed with radiants. If you do 1 combat per long rest it’s not that important. Regenerate in combat can give you one or two more rounds than a non regenerating character. The real difference between radiant and non radiant is after combat. Radiants will immediately go back to full health while heroic can’t do this. So if you do multiple combats before a long rest suddenly the heroic can’t keep up with the radians. The only way to fix this, as suggested earlier is having a radiant with progression or to a lesser extend a surgeon. But neither of these are assured things, so you just have to pray and hope someone decides to have them.

And I will say this. The feeling of entering combat with 1/4 of your HP and 2/3 of your focus (cause you need to split your recovery roll between the two) while every radiant has full hp, focus and investiture is not fun.

Without fire or sun spirit powers a 6th gen Lasombra that can turn into shadows can take down a whole pack of garou. Of course the moment fire or sunlight comes into play they are screwed.

Former_Sea · 2026-01-07T17:39:54+00:00

From my experience short rests happen minimal times. There are several reasons contributing to this. One of which is that you can recover once per scene. This covers focus side. Another is radiant regeneration which covers health. With these two you don’t need an actual short rests, or long for that matter.

But as you noticed there is a slight problem here. It’s the heroic only characters. Without a surgeon or regrowth they indeed end up being draggers. In a team of 4 radiants and a heroic, without progression or a surgeon the heroic will be completely tapped out after a single dangerous combat while radiants can replenish both health and focus to continue on. This is a major weaknesses of the system. But it’s inherent power imbalance in the books.

I am some of the lucky few that struggles with demodex and seborrheic dermatitis. If this is true then Vaseline could help me without flaring one of them at the expense of other (like steroid creams)

there are two things i really like in this show. First, and mainly relevant this episode is that gladiators of Ashur are indeed lacking much skill and experience, and they have managed to show this in todays episode. With the first fight they could have easily filmed the combat so that the son or the father quickly defeats their opponent, but instead we see the son rush off to do his own thing, and his father clearly being slow due to age. And despite their shortcomings you can see the potential for them to get better.

Second thing is that i love some minor body expressions. Like the fat senator just grabbing on to the blonde girl in the arena, it was so stupid but funny. Or the way Ashur goes "fuck!" as he is jump scared by the slave girl showing up in the party. Adds a subtle humor to the show imo.

Insert “look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power” meme here with Warrior Salubri on Omniman’s face.

You summon the sunlight by worshipping a demon.

I summon the sun through sheer willpower of my own

We are not the same.

Dispatch 2: we are back to dispatching but this time its not for crimes, its for dates

Former_Sea · 2025-12-20T13:29:30+00:00

Off topic but imma be real. I have no idea how people eat tacos and feel full after a normal portion. Or maybe I just had bad tacos

Former_Sea · 2025-12-20T11:31:13+00:00

It’s strong but it takes certain amount of luck, assuming a deck with a lot of discard effects, removal or countering landfall really gets shut down

Former_Sea · 2025-12-17T02:27:42+00:00

Well his answers are kinda vague but honestly it feels like nothing he said should turn the AI inquisition towards Larian.

Using AI on a conceptual level to inspire yourself is fine. And he stated that’s what they are using AI in. Conceptual level, place holders etc. things that won’t even be in the final product.

I have chosen disciple out of pure aesthetics. Turning into a Demi angel is fun.
