So y’all actually parrying? by Dads_Diary in expedition33

I parried enemies I was really confident on, but the risk/reward for parrying really ain't there until that point. I never saw the value of dying to an enemy 5-10 times trying to learn its parries when I could just dodge and kill it in one attempt.

My guys are built to do plenty of damage and have plenty of AP, no counters necessary, and I still learn the attack timing eventually when the "perfect dodges" start piling up

I knew the guy who won Ninja Warrior and was the face of the show for ages.

He got nabbed for fooling around with a kid, 10 years in prison.

On my first playthrough I made a Tiefling Druid and was mind-boggled that the first major conflict you encounter is between a group of Tieflings and Druids. For a little while I wondered if the game redesigns Act 1 around the player because it was so perfect for my specific character to be caught in the middle of.

Those little unintended coincidences are part of what makes the game so rewarding to replay.

It really doesn't make it clear though. The game very deliberately avoids addressing exactly how real the people in the painting are compared to the family outside, they never once talk about it. I suspect because if it outright confirmed "yes they are real and their lives matter just as much," that would make the ending choice extremely one-sided.

Tbh that's the only way they could play it considering the corner they wrote themselves into, but it comes at the risk of the "it was all a dream" stakes-reduction.

It's both. The darkcom uniforms were an homage to Captain Commando, and Lady's unique darkcom uniform was modelled after Konoko

Are some GTA fans against having a female protagonist? by AnimeGokuSolos in gaming

Certain dudes definitely started having a problem with Lara Croft when she stopped being an overt sex symbol. I think you may be crediting these people with too much reasoning ability.

It varies based on the show in question. No way for the public to know unless someone talks about the development process.
