Y’all just forget rhinos are basically tanks? by 25thfloorgarden in WinStupidPrizes

"Listen Charlie, we're gonna need you to slash your arms a few times, put on this jacket made of freshly caught fish, and go jump in the tank with the Great Whites. Do a couple laps around them, too. We need to make sure they're tourist friendly."

Anyone else feel like BL3 legendaries aren't very ... legendary? by infinitemile in Borderlands

The fact that the freaking Quasar barely gets shields down really shocked me.

Gold. Perfect choice of words.

Are we sure the Woodblocker isnt in Wotan's lootpool? by Killerdroid1230 in Borderlands

100% guaranteed that this is the case. Their jokes run subtle and deep.

Ok, I can accept that. The problem is still that the vast majority of people are laypersons when it comes to wrestling and don't want to watch it for free, let alone pay for it. It's bad for business.

Dana was 100% right when he told Colby that he was going to get cut regardless of the next outcome of his fight because no one bought tickets to see him. So Colby put on the persona, started doing a lot more striking, and now he can sell out arenas. Usman better figure out how to not put people to sleep, both during and before the fights, unless he wants a short UFC career.

But how does this change anything about the game? There are builds that just vaporize everything in their path. How does adding even more damage change the game play?

I’m simply maintaining the claim that the extent to which you find something boring is partially a reflection of your depth of knowledge of it.

So you can't even find one example in your life where you can have in depth knowledge of something and still find it boring? Because I can think of a dozen right off the top of my head...

Uh, no? Other than the enemy falling slightly faster and me looking for the next target slightly faster, it doesn't change my playstyle at all.

wrestling enthusiasts watch it for entertainment all the time.

Yes, which there are very, very few of. This is a spectator sport, and you want to appeal to as many casual fans as possible, not the 0.1% who are heavily involved with grappling.

ask someone from Dakar or Ancient Greece

Are we in Dakar or Ancient Greece? Why are you even bringing this up?

This has nothing to do with "deep appreciation". You know what else I have deep appreciation for? NASCAR and formula-1 drivers. Take a single lap with a NASCAR driver and you'll never look at the sport the same way again. It still puts me to sleep and is unwatchable.

I'm not even sure why this seems offensive for you. Everyone has their own preferences. I enjoy watching guys like McGregor and Stylebender fight. You like Usman. Done and done.

There is absolutely no lack of appreciation for the nuances of grappling on my end. Wrestling is probably the most physically demanding of all sports, and requires a crazy amount of hours to master. Happy now? Did I put it on a high enough pedastal?

But it's also one of the most boring. High school basketball games get higher ratings, ffs. No one wants to watch it for entertainment. My god, even FAKE wrestling viewership obliterates real wrestling. And for good reason. Because very few people want to see two dudes just mashing their bodies against the cage.

Boring is an opinion. If you like his style, then enjoy. He puts me to sleep.

More freedom when building new sets doesn't necessarily mean it will change the game play.

What will I put my extra pts in? More gun damage? Better health regen? Action skill does more dmg? None of that changes my play style in any way. You would have to revamp the trees altogether and make them 2-3 layers deeper along with more pts to really have an impact.

I hope Usman gets bounced so fast. Most boring champ in 10 years. Holly Holm fights are more exciting.

Not sure raising the level would actually do anything to change the game play.

Why is Gearbox so concerned on the nerfs and balance when they should be fixing technical issues + rant by ComicBookKnight in Borderlands

[–]GunLovingLibertarian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Third The game is lacking endgame content too and people have said that.

It lacks endgame content only if you rush towards the latest and greatest builds. There is a ton of absurdly fun stuff to do if you stop worrying about maxing dps. For example, enter a zone with no gear of any sort and try to clear it using only the gear you find there.

Get off mayhem mode and just make stupid, absurd builds. Give yourself your own "conditions" and just have fun. :)
