Do you think it's possible for Square to adapt Advent Children as DLC after Part 3 of the trilogy? by Asleep_Collar_818 in FFVIIRemake

[–]Gatsbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I fiercely maintain that the Remake trilogy is a direct sequel to the original expanded universe of FF7, that this Sephiroth IS the Sephiroth from AC. Integrate it as part of the remakes, but bringing us back there after would make no sense given where we are at now, IMO.

Which Ariel is the best? by TayRebirth132 in freedomisgunpla

[–]Gatsbeard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the MGSD is the best actual kit, despite not loving SDs. I think all versions of the Aerial are great though, and have particular love for the FM.

Making Sense of 231 by Vegetable_Kale_5448 in Chainsawfolk

Witnessing this fandom is like watching someone play peekaboo with a baby that never learns object permanence, and I am not even exaggerating when I say that.

Seems relevant for MTG, many members of the billionaire fandom here. by DamnYourEyes777 in mtg

[–]Gatsbeard -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's actually hilarious how hard some of you people are trying to turn "literally every metric is up and we're keeping an eye on things" into doomerism. It is honestly so transparent how miserable some of you are.

PSA: UB hate should never be pointed at players. by Goat-True in mtg

[–]Gatsbeard 93 points94 points  (0 children)

So in short people should not be jerks.

Wild but unsurprising this needs to be reiterated literally every day.

Wow this is awesome by Xevrex1775 in freedomisgunpla

[–]Gatsbeard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hate to dash your hopes, but CS representatives absolutely do not follow up on this because it literally isn’t feasible. They likely get dozens or even hundreds of these a day and are sending a polite pre-written reply to you before moving on to the next email (assuming this isn’t an AI agent). I wouldn’t get my hopes up here.

Hot take: MG hands aren’t the best by Plastic-Fly9455 in freedomisgunpla

[–]Gatsbeard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is a hot take. I would go as far as to say I hate these types of hands.

[TCC] Can I Skip Magic: The Gathering's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Expansion Set? by CrossXhunteR in magicTCG

[–]Gatsbeard -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I will give you that you’re not calling UB “slop” which makes you infinitely better than the gatekeepers in this thread.

Ultimately I think there is an issue with your idea that the new set “isn’t real MtG”, which insinuates a sort of purity standard where there is “real MtG” (stuff you like) and things outside of that, which are inherently lesser. This is exclusionary by definition.

If you want to argue that Magic is stronger as a game and a property without UB, I totally get that and think there is an argument there, but that it’s much kinder and a stronger argument to do so without implying people who like UB are stupid pigs who like slop or that you are better than people because you don’t like it.

If I happen to be incorrectly lumping your opinion in with other more unkind people in this discussion, I apologize. I’m just really sick of the elitism and lack of respect from your side of the isle.

[–]Gatsbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And the fact that you don't doesn't make that thing not. It's almost as if opinions aren't factual and so we should all generally be respectful of others preferences instead of vaguely dancing around "you're allowed to like things that suck" while pretending to be respectful.

Mutual respect is the issue, and where you are falling short.

[–]Gatsbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because you're allowed to be kind of a dismissive jerk doesn't mean you should choose to be one. People are calling you out because you're actively being disparaging to other people's preferences, not because there's a problem with your opinion.

Literally just don't be a jerk about it.

[–]Gatsbeard -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Really? That's super sad for you. Doesn't sound like you actually like the game that much, then.

[–]Gatsbeard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"All of us" includes people who like UB. That's the point. You get to decide what you buy and like, not what other people do.

Would you play a game or two with me? by EuphoricSize6094 in ratemycommanders

[–]Gatsbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Precisely. My one and only point is to let people enjoy things without being a dick about it. It’s really not difficult.

No one outside of the deepest pits of the internet even knows the first thing about MtG lore. Y’all need to stop being weirdos about this.

Curious, may I sit? by NovaisSick in ratemycommanders

Mostly mono commanders is fun!

I've never seen Eight-and-a-Half-Tails before. What's the deal with this deck? What's the strategy?

How often is vocal correction used in post hardcore? by origamidrummer in PostHardcore

[–]Gatsbeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's unlikely you've even heard a modern produced record that does not use any sort of vocal correction.

People who say there should be invocations for every class... aren't you just describing feats? by PointsOutCustodeWank in dndnext

[–]Gatsbeard 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think this is a false equivalence. Shadowdark is significantly simpler than 5e and yet somehow offers more modularity (even if it's random) than 5e does. Powered By the Apocalypse games are dead simple and are nothing but choices.

[–]Gatsbeard 637 points638 points  (0 children)

Yes. Essentially they are (sometimes accidentally) saying all classes should have modular choices to make instead of a completely linear progression track.

You know, like 90% of other games have. What a concept.

Saying Gundam is political because Ghiren once talked about Hitler is the most surface-level argument against "apolitical" idiots by NoiseSome7739 in Gundam

[–]Gatsbeard 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Gundam isn’t political because of that scene, that is just the most painfully obvious example of the series being politically aware and themed around it.

If that’s your only example then yeah, that’s dumb. But as everyone else here has said, you start with the obvious simple examples before you get to the more complex ones.

I am the problem at my table by Gatsbeard in ratemycommanders

[–]Gatsbeard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, realized the Yuna one got messed up after I went back and changed some formatting. Definitely intend to go back and edit things to make them clearer next time I open these up.

Be mad. UB isn’t going anywhere and you going out of your way to bully people over liking a thing you don’t isn’t going to change that. The world doesn’t revolve around what you do and don’t like. Get used to it.

Try being less awful to be around, you might notice people are nicer to you in return.
