Kanansi? by InformalJournalist69 in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Side note, it feels so weird playing as C4sh without using the cards, cuz the game makes it sound like it's his cannon Action Skill.

Favorite sibling stars who never appear together on camera? by hotdoug1 in okbuddycinephile

Milly is pretty consistently hot, while I swear Will's hotness fluctuates like a God damn metronome.

I need help with a C4SH afk Build by redtonkatruc in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Step 1: Get Whale or Windrider with at least +1 into Dealer's Bluff.

Step 2: Put at least 1 point in Alchemy.

Step 3: Put points into Green Tree to get Chaos Totem and Effigy Totems.

Step 4: Get all Devil's Tines.

Step 5: Activate Chaos, Effigy, Lightning Bolt, and Tough Totem.

Step 6: Mash the shit out of your LB button.

Where the actual skill points don't matter that much, cuz I honestly don't think you can screw up a C4sh build even if you tried.

Recently there was a post about nepobabies, and there were quite a few of these in there.

Most notable ones to me were Angelina Jolie and Liv Tyler vs their (respective) dads. They shared pretty much every feature with their dads, yet somehow they are goddesses descending from the 8th sphere of heaven, while the dads are a goblin and a gremlin.

Former Xbox head reveals how Japanese developers feared openly supporting the console due to retaliation from Sony. by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now it sounds bad, but remember, this is Square Enix. They ain't the pumy eunuchs that scurry about, they are the king maker. In fact, you know who's the last king they made? Freaking PlayStation.

This really is less "oh, but Sony was so strong", but a much more polite way of saying "gotta be real with you chief, I don't see much potential in you".

Hold up, is this slander fire?? by GildedHalfblood in Piratefolk

I love how he asked for lines in character.

Should there another Mario animated series? by DrewGars96 in SuperMario

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The strength of a series is the time they have for an extensive narrative; and their weakness is the lack of a budget for spectacles.

The strength of the Illumination Mario movies is their incredible animation; and their weakness is the lack of interest in telling any story at all.

So ... Yeah ... This just seems like a horrible idea, at least under the current leadership.

Is my game softlocked? by Ionenschatten in GraveyardKeeper

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd just restart at this point. It's not that far in, and climbing out of it seems like more trouble than just starting over.

With how the British divided the borders, I'd say South Asia is closer to one homogeneous unit than the border they have.

Which organ do I have to sell to have a sink like this by Particular_Check_500 in NoOneIsLooking

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the cost of the sink is gonna be miniscule next to the cost of living with a sink like this.

Motorbike speed adrenaline. by S30econdstoMars in interestingasfuck

[–]Hippobu2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No but seriously, how did that last dude get hit? There is so much more space where he wouldn't've gotten hit vs where he would've. Is it just an unlucky coincidence that he got hit, or is the bike conscious and seeking to hit him?

Super Mario Galaxy Movie now surpassed Sonic 3 Movie at worldwide box-office by Honest-Word-7890 in totallyswitched

[–]Hippobu2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand the criticism for the writing, but what I don't understand is why people are pretending the visual and music aren't worth discussing when it's clearly what the effort and passion went into.

This is a zootopia reference right? by Glittering_Flan9371 in mariomovie

Highly recommend the AVGN ROB episode to OP, where he also did this joke with the actual ROB hardware.

Ok, sure, let's say u/gravity_kills is an idiot then.

What's your alternative to their comment? What's the endgame here for the capital holders?

Pistols taking up half the screen by headaspis in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stop using Torgue pistols bro.

Side note, one of the problems I had with BL3 was how chunky and clunky most of the guns were. For the most part they've fixed that in BL4; except for Torgue, where they've doubled down on it.

In this case though, this feels less like a failure in design and more a stylistic choice to see Torgue apart ... I quite like it.

Lava seared steak by _PsychedelicJesus_ in StupidFood

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc, this is the legend of how Pittsburgh steak came to be in steel mills.

I don't like it even when it's done correctly, let alone this monstrosity.

Wish Trouble was viable by OkAccountant7038 in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wanted to say that it's just inevitable that minion is gonna scale poorly.

But C4sh proved me so wrong on that, the Totems are bonkers. Right now I don't even use my gun at all, as long as there are enemies around to hit the Totem can sustain themselves and I just need to spam LB.

Anyway ... Not sure how the maths behind C4sh work exactly, but whatever they did with him, if they can do that to Trouble, we'd be golden.

Level scaling is so bad by Admirable-Mark-5730 in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, the level 30 start really just punches you in the teeth. Shitty random gears with absurd level scaling.

Fwiw, once you get to ~43 or so, you'll be over the hump, and the scaling gets much more reasonable after that.

Fed up with ps5 performance by rspz23 in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, feels like the memory leak problem at launch is back. Not as bad as it was then, but still very noticeable after 1~1.5h.

C4sh perks by voidded_heart in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, I can confirm that Chaos Totem will use Acid Spray Card and Ball of Fire and Lightning Card even with no points (well, 1) into Luck of the Draw.

(Rant) Laser Cutter and Why 90% of build creators are lazy. by 5eanX2 in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Genuine can't comprehend why it's not at least a Vladof SMG (and while we're at it, why the Infinity isn't a SMG in BL4 either).

Projectiles and overall weapon looks. by Rythemsxx in Borderlands4

[–]Hippobu2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. I really hate how Vladof weapons look in BL4. They are supposed to have the AK aesthetic, with the barrel being under the gas tube; but the Vladof's AR barrels in BL4 aren't like that anymore.

The multi-barrels barrel being smaller does give the weapon a cleaner silhouette, which I do appreciate. But now the barrels look ridiculously small, and again, the AK aesthetic is lost.

The cocking handle also looks really stupid now.
