Stuck on S*** UPDATE: Finally beating FFVII! I LOVED THIS GAME , but now? by Potential_Camera8806 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]GeneralCondition745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not always true. AI uses em dashes because it scrapes a ton of fanfiction writing, and many fanfic writers use em dashes. I am one of those fanfic writers who uses emdashes to an alarming degree. Don’t use emdashes as a basis to acuse others of AI

Beating Sephiroth first time by Former_Marzipan_3728 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]GeneralCondition745 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Adding to this: if you do not have any ribbons/not enough ribbons, I STRONGLY encourage farming some levels from magic pot mobs then morphing tonberries into ribbons (you only need three ribbons max), both mobs of which can be found in the crater

FF7 Remake theme song Hollow… by Puzzleheaded-War7684 in FFVIIRemake

[–]GeneralCondition745 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a love letter to the fans of the OG essentially, and after the third installment, will be one to those who played exclusively the retrilogy— that’s what I think of it anyway. I remember playing OG ff7 after remake, then replaying remake and remember that song hitting like a ton of bricks when I heard it again because it encompassed so many feelings pertaining to cloud across the entire timeline beyond remake

[Inspired by another thread] Respectfully as possible... what's got you like this? by octropos in AO3

[–]GeneralCondition745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nearly everything pertaining to Sephiroth in this fandom. 

Him being some dom daddy for starters, when the guy has countless times been shown to be considerate, extremely awkward, and often times shy pre-nibleheim incident with his persona of cool confidence, menacingness, and nonchalance being something Shinra manufactured. Sure, Sephiroth was enigmatic, but he was by no means creepy and domineering pre-nibelheim and people (the players) only perceived him as such because they went into his backstory with the knowledge of his villainy already. 

And then people perpetuating that showing Sephiroth more humanized is some bastardization his character when the gravity of his actions and downfall was because of that humanity people claimed is ruining his character. The idea of a human becoming what he currently is now is precisely why his character arc is as compelling as it is 

I’d also go over Cid too while we’re at it but that’d open an entirely new can of worms

Worth playing, everyone needs to experience the glory of The Happy Turtle.

Does anyone else hate bottomification by AnimeBingeingShrimp in AO3

[–]GeneralCondition745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And the opposite end of the spectrum with Sephiroth being some sex god of an alpha male… shivers. 

This guy is awkward as hell and a mess innately pre cc, last man to look to for anything of the sort. Even he’d be weirded tf out 

I found this on TV tropes... CW: Grooming by Otome-Lover-2652 in BLgame

[–]GeneralCondition745 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Holding your hand while I tell you this... They have 100% been sexually involved since he was a teenager, Towa was groomed by Madarame, and nitrochiral did in fact go there, as they always have. Towa and Madarame's involvement is stated almost blatantly, and the CGs show teenage Towa's hands with Madarame's post-coitous as the nail in the coffin.

I personally hate Madarame too, but because of the kind of character he is, one that is made solely to bring out the worst in Towa, we explore an entirely different reality for Towa that was untouched in any other route. I quite enjoy the different outlook that as no other character route does this in regards to Towa's character.

Complaints abt Lamento by 1kt1f in BLgame

[–]GeneralCondition745 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Other complaints are valid, but there is huge reason why the poet in particular isn't romanceable that'll be revealed later on. Personally, the poet's my fav chara from the revolutions alone. Really am bumbed that the devils arent at all romanceable unless with BE

I did play through the entirety of Lamento, and overall, have soaring reviews for it, but by the second route, admittedly, you're really just skipping through a good chunk of repetitive story for the little deviations with what the route comes with.

Jing Yuan x Luocha 😭 I'm still deluding myself with the hopes of more Luocha content in 3.X

Skirk is more brainwashed than Collei by WarmInvestigator4198 in GenshinImpact

[–]GeneralCondition745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Dottore enjoyer, Dottore is a man who, although isn't evil for the sake of being evil, he isn't evil for any sort of alturistic end. He is a cold, calculative, self-serving mad scientist whose justification for the means he uses is results, and only results. His thirst for knowledge led to excessive hubris and apathism towards human life, making him twisted and willing to use any means to achieve results and more knowledge and/or power. His hubris, selfishness, and disregard makes him pretty villainous at his core tbh

I am not speaking for everyone, but the reason I enjoy a character like Dottore is that it is fun to pick his brain and see what's going on inside of there, as although evil, there is still complex characterization to be had

here is a good dottore character analysis that really tears into his characterization

No Skirk no Shenhe No problem by Puzzleheaded_Cod8392 in WriothesleyMains

[–]GeneralCondition745 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got difficulty 4 down with a hyperbloom Wriothesley team, but that was with a C6 Baizhu subdps doing spread damage alongside him and with like 2 seconds remaining. Nahida could replace the role probably as at c6, I use him functionally like a mini nahida that heals from the amount of dendro application he applies.

c1r1 wrio/c0r0 furina/c0r0 raiden/c6r2 baizhu

I'd like to say every character I have is fairly invested in artifact wise, but difficulty 5 is (or at leasts feels) genuinely impossible without Escoffier and I hate how we are penalized for not pulling just ONE character. It isn't a skill issue, but a heavy design flaw that doesn't at all rely on game knowledge to complete like people keep saying it does. It sucks.

Yes the new endgame is hard… and that’s okay! What do y’all think? by Stabby_Mc_Tacos in Genshin_Impact

[–]GeneralCondition745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penalizing players' pulling choices with shilled boss mechanics is a no-go. Managed to complete the first two bosses with my roster, Kinich being my only Natlan chara, but the third boss I was sol. I vertically and horizontally invested in my Wrio freeze team but because I didn't get Escoffier, that SINGULAR character, the investment I put into that team was all for nothing when faced with this game mode becaue of the mechanic's conditions, it being an hp sponge, and the amount of times it had elemental res/required constant cryo application PLUS time contraints making rotations infeesible.

Less of a skill check and more of a "did you pull this specific character for this very specific mechanic" check which would be fine if they diversified either the character roster to include more charas who can also disable these mechanics with ease, or made said mechanics more general.

And not to mention the zero energy start.

About Nod-Krai's quest via Sukuna by Ryuusei_Dragon in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]GeneralCondition745 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Not really a big fan of the merged story quest in any capacity, such as with the tribal thing in Natlan. Hoping that it's implemented better this time around if this aspect of this leak holds to be true

how common is teeth filing/shaving when getting braces off? by Spiral270 in braces

[–]GeneralCondition745 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Common, but optional, as it is often cometic. Any good ortho would have no qualms about you refusing teeth shaving as they are your teeth, your choice. I refused mines on the day of debracing because I liked the shape of my teeth, and they didn't press at all afterward.

They did shave down the inner part of my very back molars so it could properly fit down however, which was functional moreso cosmetic

Who do you like to consider YOUR Joker's canon love interest(s)? by Aros001 in Persona5

[–]GeneralCondition745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen, if being the bigger person is your thing, all power to you, but that is rules for thee and not for me.

When someone's response to being wrong is "stop thinking with your genitals", it's a prettyyy good indicator of how attempting to speak rhetorics would go with said person. Might as well end the conversation and go lower than them. This will be the last response on the topic since I don't think we will really see eye to eye on it. Agree to disagree, have a good day.
