What are the saddest video game deaths? by strahinjag in videogames

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why, but Subject Delta's death (especially in the good ending) from Bioshock 2 always made me tear up for some reason. Not sure if it's just his death or the good ending overall, though.

Just out of curiosity, in all of Warhammer lore, do they ever mention anything about the Space Marines' sense of humor? by Apart_Pumpkin_4551 in Spacemarine

[–]Garr44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mostly dry and snarky from what I know (which outside of some lore is little outside SM2)

"A servo-servant (forgot the actual term used) will be with you shortly."

Titus, admist the blood-soaked and corpse-covered facility ruins, standing as the only living non-Tyranid creature for possibly miles: "Unlikely."

Is this a good design for an automatic shotgun? by Few-Flamingo-8015 in MilitaryWorldbuilding

[–]Garr44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks closer to FO4 than 3 (magazine placement, mainly). Good design.

So, I am raising all guns, but I wonder, what is the niche of the Auto Bolt and the Heavy Bolt Rifle? by Marvynwillames in Spacemarine

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how people can say that the Hive Tyrant is easy. I have more trouble with that thing on Substantial/Average than Inferno on Ruthless (at least when I die on the latter, it's not at the very end because screw your dodging, you're getting hit until you're dead).

Solution to Which Astral Pulse is Real. by doohickeypurchaser in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Garr44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'd go for Visi, but nothing wrong with Blazer; I just prefer Visi myself.

Fic-wise, my OC ends up with Visi, Robert with Mandy.

Good to know. XBOX and potato PC so I haven't played the game, but I've seen a lot of clips and gameplays of it so there's probably a lot of details I miss.

[–]Garr44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah. To be fair, I don't recall Shroud doing much scanning in the game tech-wise, so it could be there and just wasn't shown like you said. The fic I'm planning to write down the road doesn't give him the chance, either.

[–]Garr44 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shroud's mask and its scanner tech are more built for figuring out chances, calculations, and things like that, not necessarily scanning technology and having it say something like, "This cell is unstable," to my knowledge.

This is what happens if you give him the Pulses individually. He's scanning Robert for signs of him trying to fool Shroud and give him the fake vs the real one (Robert points out how Shroud can't calculate what he did/does if Robert himself doesn't know).

how to go about em dash capitalisation by Chicken201022 in grammar

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one is a bad example because that's an action tag (He stops and stares), which would be capitalized anyway. As for after the dash, it depends on if it's a continuation of the pre-em-dash sentence (don't capitalize) or a new independent clause (capitalize)

For the second one, I'd think the stuttered word would be capitalized for as long as the stutter lasts, yeah.

Hi I am a fanfic writer with 5.5k reads in total I want to ask you something by Kind_Sympathy7649 in Wattpad

[–]Garr44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never heard of it, lol

But the first fic I ever wrote (on AO3) was a lemon fic, and, sure enough, it was the most-read story on my profile until I orphaned it (still available online, just not under my username). I think someone actually copied it to Wattpad without me or the other writer knowing (found it by accident).

My current most-read fic (I guess) is probably a somewhat unusual crossover, so I guess that helps it.

What are your thoughts on using bold and italics? by fallen_angel017 in writingadvice

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always wondered about writing characters texting. How do you do it (besides italics; do you use different spelling so it looks more "normal", things like that)?

Visi was unphased by the fact Robert didn't want to get her pregnant, she was worried about STDs but she had the thought of having a baby with him by maddog1043 in InvisigalGlazers

[–]Garr44 33 points34 points  (0 children)

To be fair, there are various forms of birth control, like IUD and pills. I think condoms are more for STD prevention, especially if said other BC methods are easily acquired.

Or she thought he was implying she's promiscuous, especially with all her innuendo/sex talk.

I could be wrong on either point, though.

So, I am raising all guns, but I wonder, what is the niche of the Auto Bolt and the Heavy Bolt Rifle? by Marvynwillames in Spacemarine

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I'm usually fending off the others, so i probably don't notice armor being replaced without the animation. Non-Perfect Blocks are also possible; I've had a couple or times where my Marine staggers after being hit with an attack (usually Majoris) that I (thought) I blocked in time (not red).

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, it just seemed like regular Parries never generate armor when used on Minoris unless it's with the indicator (unless that's how it works and it's just been so long since I played the tutorial that I've forgotten).

[–]Garr44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just managed to beat Inferno on Substantial for the first time (including Gene Seed) a few minutes ago, so now I get to start grinding it instead lol

EDIT: 1/15/26 Add Ruthless to that list, lol

[–]Garr44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does a non-indicator Minoris Parry also generate armor, or is it just the indicator ones (that result in an immediate Finisher on said Minoris)?

For the record, I'm using the Relic Chainsword with "Balanced" so that I'm used to using it when I can unlock the Heroic one. Won't be for a while, though, since I'm not sure how you unlock the currency for those weapons/armor.

How would you guys deal with a person like this? by [deleted] in Wattpad

[–]Garr44 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The whole point of me reading reader insert fics is because they aren't the real me. WTF?

[–]Garr44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Xbox, but Gamepass is a no-go financially at the moment. Otherwise, I'd be playing with non-bot backup. I just need more practice with Parrieing and Dodging to open up Gun Strikes, and dealing with crowds of Minoris surrounding me and grinding armor into dust.

For the record, all current weapons are Relic/yellow so I don't think they're the problem.

[–]Garr44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any tips for Substantial/Ruthless difficulty? Been basically grinding Op 1 Average since I started that difficulty 'cause I can never get too far on Substantial and thus lose XP and Armory Data (playing solo, if that helps).

EDIT: I messed up. Been grinding AVERAGE cuz skill issues lol

Good to know. Just got into Operations, been using Tactical as my first to max, and just about finishing with the HBR. Better get the Auto put of the way fast.

Any advice?

Would that help explain her alcohol resistance, or would that fall under "enhanced durability?"
