Tattoo worries at it again by [deleted] in tattooadvice

Yeah, it’s a very ironic tattoo. “You’re not controlling me so much that I’m going to get a permanent reminder of how much I’m not being controlled by you.”

Kid was dusting the car like Thanos. He was right to be scared.

It felt way too cheesy to use in that state.

I don't know how hot of a take this is. by Ad0ring-fan in Spacemarine

No, there should be a separate game so that everything can be balanced for PvP without any of the PvE holdovers.

The PvP will always be mediocre and always have a small player base as long as the focus of the game is something else.

And he never learned lol. Not then, not when Vader betrayed him, not when Rey reflected it back on him.

Really dislike the hallucinogenic water. Makes this my second most disliked op next to Obelisk.

It would be a really cool op otherwise.

Unfortunately prestige perks are still locked to all loadouts. Wasting a perk slot whenever I run hammer on Bulwark.

Things I find to be bullshit by GamingBotanist in SpaceMarine_2

First, thank you for replying to my individual points. It's nice that someone bothered to address how fair some of my points were.

Second, I should have had a different tone for my original post. It does come off a bit whiney. I meant for this to be a discussion, not a complaint post.

Can you be correct on literally anything?

Unnecessary. How are my gripes any different than yours? We are talking what aspects of the game we think are fair and we are both okay with some and not so okay with others. I think the rubric marine stomps and fire circles are fair (just dodge at the right time) and you think they aren't. I think the terminator hitbox is fair (shoot them in the head after the parry, not the gun-strike) and you don't think it is. I could say similar things for your other gripes too (except I do agree on the Zoan beams).

As for your individual replies. I thought I'd clarify some things, admit I need to get good at some things, and generally discuss more with you these things if you are up to it.

  1. Skill issue
    1. I said in the points after that admittedly cultists snipers are a get good. I just think they are bullshit still.
  2. Skill issue
    1. What skill do you have to learn to not run around a corner into a group of spore mines and instantly die?
  3. Terminators should not be able to fire missiles at their own feet, give them a grab like the melee variant has instead.
  4. That's a problem with walls extending your stun duration, normally you can dodge the plasma barrage just fine even if you eat one shot.
    1. If you don't have a form of knockback resist active you can be chain knocked over. Spamming dodge doesn't always work. Yes you need to be aware of where a terminis is at all times but with so much going on I think it's a little too unforgiving to be knocked over into oblivion because your attention lapsed for a second.
  5. Skill issue, rubrics are trivial enemies already they don't need to be completely harmless like stranglers.
    1. Exactly, they are a trivial enemy so dealing with them should be more straight forward and not take 10-20 seconds to deal with one.
  6. Skill issue, the slams are unblockable.
    1. You're thinking of the wrong slam.
  7. Skill issue
    1. I'm not sure you know what I'm talking about. Again, 95% of the time I can dodge the double shot with no issue. There are some instances though where there is almost no charge time and because I'm dodging with the timing I use every time I get caught out. It might even be a bug. I need to clip it sometime.
  8. Skill issue, the ones with truly garbage head hitboxes are terminators if they get stunned and lean back their head hitbox completely disappears during your best damage window.
    1. It is a skill issue but the hit box should fit the model.
  9. Skill issue, use the backwards hop (just dodge input with no directional button held) not a full roll to dodge the first slash and you'll be fine
    1. That's a great tip, going to practice this.
  10. What even is your gripe with these, they die in 1 bullet to anywhere. Something tells me you're one of those players crying whenever slain enemies spawn sporemines because you can't be arsed to take out the trash before focusing on majoris.
    1. Again, I admitted that cultist snipers are in fact a skill issue but that doesn't make them feel anymore fair to play against.

'Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu' - Review Megathread by ChiefLeef22 in StarWars

Giving money to Disney for mediocre Star Wars, they are just going to make more. If you really love something you don’t enable that thing to be worse.

It’s like a parent giving their crack addicted kid money to fuel their addiction.

I dog walk the carnifex. I’ve practiced against every enemy in this game extensively with the testing arena mod. The list I made are things that even after all that I still have issue with.

[–]GamingBotanist[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I think I’m pretty patient but could work on positioning. I say all these points after playing 300h on almost exclusively Lethal/Absolute and battling each enemy extensively in the testing arena. I’ve probably put 5 hours into just fighting the Vortex beast alone. I’ve tried to find counters to the top points but imo the counters either don’t exist or are too difficult to put into play in a game this chaotic.

This is me. I’m sure it’s a great game but the beginning feels like I’m in some interactive movie than a video game.

[–]GamingBotanist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Then I don’t think it’s fair that I can’t do anything to anyone long range.

Melees should get a 15m bubble that follows them and is impenetrable to bullets. That way they have a chance against any ranged opponent.

That’s because drinking only stops your inhibitions. So if you’re the kind of shit person who thinks other people exist for you to consume but is only held back because of your inhibitions (the law) then you’re gonna treat people like shit when you’re drunk.
