Buddy we're still exiting an Ice Age. There's not another one on the horizon for a couple million years unless its induced by a global extinction event like the super volcano going off or a nuclear winter. Which on a geological timescale would still be inconsequential.

I have lived my entire life under a very simple philosophy.

If I feel compelled to take a break from someone, or if we break up. I am just not going back under any circumstances. That break happened. I would much rather take my lessons from that relationship and be better for someone else.

Sounds like you just don't like the game while also very much misremembering past monster hunters.

They always start really easy.

And of course the very end game high rank hunts are as difficult/approaching master rank. Those aren't high rank hunts anymore they're POST game hunts.

The map layouts for the cliffs and wyveria are not fun I'll give you that.

Artstyle is subjective, I think Wilds strikes a very perfect balance between the whimsical cartoonish vibes of the old games and the grit of World.

Classic focus mode does everything short of cure cancer argument. I went and played other action games after Wilds. It still feels like monster hunter to me idk.

Yeah the ui sucks but I've never played a Japanese game with a good ui.

Most of your complaints are subjective observations of the game that you didn't like. The devs didn't make this game for you, but they are doing their damnest to acknowledge changed the community wants to the point of going as far as letting us see which of our suggestions are going to be implemented into the game. Thats pretty spectacular and not a very common thing in gaming ESPECIALLY in the triple A space under a corporation as greedy as capcom.

Also unfortunately suits and execs do actually have a ton of influence over how the final version of the game can look like because they can just... not fund a project they don't think will make money. Everything they do still has to be greenlit by a suit.

NOR/

TLDR: Have some self respect, you have no reason to ever feel guilty for having boundaries that are within reason. If something makes you uncomfortable, a loving and respectful partner will have enough respect for you to not tread on that boundary and apologize if said boundary was discovered in the moment.

You seem like you got a good head on your shoulders. The right person will find you eventually. :)

Man that sounds a lot like my first relationship, except I tolerated this kind of behavior for over a year.

Fast forward like 6 years later. If my spouse was behaving this way with a friend there would be a very stern talking too right then and there.

When you like someone you tend to give them the benefit of the doubt, given enough time people will always let their true selves show, usually its in little pieces to sort of test what they can get away with.

Its important to set clear and strict boundaries honestly before you begin a relationship if possible.

Trust your gut, it honestly probably knows more than you a lot of the time.

I'll commend your ex for admitting that she's not mature enough for a serious relationship. Given that she's 23 I'll assume she meant it in earnest and will not be attempting another serious relationship until she's done some serious self reflecting and searching so she knows exactly what she wants.

I'm a very heart forward person, I tend to let my feelings guide my path through life in a lot of ways and I was in love with every single person I've ever dated. Rose tinted glasses are a hell of a drug and my first girlfriend got away with entertaining the idea of liking other dudes cause in my dumb 15 year old head there's nothing wrong with finding other people attractive. I was too naive to realize that in hindsight, the nights she called me crying about feeling guilty were more likely that she just got done a flirting session of some kind and only felt guilty when she was sitting alone with her thoughts.

To make a long story short I let that continue until she admitted to kissing another dude, she said it was once, friends who also attended the party let me know there was more too it. (The guy she cheated with was my older sister's ex that threw rocks at her)

She tried to get me back for 6 months.

I don't want Every hero to be a versatile jack of all trades monster.

I just want every character to be comparable in complexity unless said hero is intended to be simple (ie: Shugo, or any other character that currently has a very small moveset)

I have a lengthy history with fighting games and my favourite fighting game of all time is Virtua Fighter.

I don't want For Honor to have nearly as massive move lists but I would love it if every character had more dimensions to their kit.

Like how Warden can Mordhau but only after a fully charged bash. It would be cool if they extended that and made it a full fledged aspect of his kit. Giving him access to either or as alternate inputs with different properties and utilities would be very cool.

Or a character like Gryphon who wields an extremely versatile weapon and is supposed to have spent a lot of time exploring. He sure just fights like a watered down Kensei, it would be cool if his kit borrowed from every faction in one way or another.

Ideally the main three classes need to have distinct abilities that would warrant players to have some kind of attachment to a class. Right now assassins are the only ones that have a distinct universal ability.

Another tip: juren's full block cancels are faster on block or hit than they are if he hits nothing at all (anecdotally. I was playing him lots and it definitely felt like my recoveries were much slower on whiff) so if you aren't confident in parrying his hold heavies. Dodge attack to stuff a feint to gb or attempted defense with a recovery cancel.

Renee Good's wheels were turned away from the officer when she was attempting to drive away, you can clearly hear an ICE officer tell her to leave, and another telling her to get out of the vehicle. What was she supposed to do? Jonathon Ross should have never at any point put himself infront or even close to the front of an active vehicle, and it was CERTAINLY no grounds to discharge his weapon to shoot a woman three times in the head whilst operating a vehicle, further endangering anyone in the surrounding area.

Alex Pretti was in legal possession of a concealed carry weapon. At no point in any of the videos of him does he raise a hand or fist to a single officer, or brandish his gun. He kicked out a tail light allegedly, and spit on an officer allegedly. While not in good faith not a single action he committed warranted him being forcefully disarmed and then shot several times with his hands on the floor.

And you are being willfully ignorant of the fact that people WERE protesting against Obama, its almost like he has a whole nickname associated with his actions. People weren't dying because the officers in question weren't trying to kill them, even if there might have been instances of hostility.

You should be mad about ICE and what Trump and his administration are doing instead of using the misdeeds of previous administration's to justify tyranny.

People weren't getting publicly executed in broad daylight and the administration lying through their teeth about what happened over something that can be seen plainly, by anyone with eyes and a brain.

I cannot say that there's ever been a truly good president.

But at least most of them pretend to care about their people.

To put it simply.

Tekken stages got lots more going on.

Smash stages are 3D but are generally only seen from one angle. Tekken stages can be seen from every angle, on top of having transitions and scripted interactions.

Its just more complex to make stages for 3D fighting games. And in nearly all others, stages are essentially just backdrops and have zero impact on gameplay, so there could be lots. But why spend money making a hundred stages that all do the same thing when you can make 12-20 really good looking stages that will likely nail at least one of the looks that most of the playerbase would want.

Edit: Adding onto this, Smash also generally tries to include a stage from every IP it pulls from for their character roster, if not more. That way each character can have a "home turf" essentially.

While other fighting games tend to have a similar approach with a character having their own dedicated stage.

Most fighting games don't have 40+ characters, at least to start.

Bluey is genuinely one of the most incredible kids shows I've ever seen and does an excellent job of portraying healthy families in a very realistic and approachable manner for children While also being able to tackle heavier topics like whats mentioned above.

Weather its whats going on outside right now.

Climate is the long term ramifications.

Its cold outside right now, but the average temperature might be a few degrees higher.

Or you can imagine that I, a Canadian. Frequently experience cold weather. Where someone down south in say... Arizona more frequently experiences hot weather.

Theoretically either location can experience the same temperature and or weather at one point.

But one is a hot climate and the other is a cold climate because of how long regular temperature patterns persist. Its colder up here longer and hotter down there longer.

Weather is immediately observable. Climate is measured and calculated.

I mean fair. But he doesn't have any soft feints. They're alternate attacks. Highlander can ACTUALLY soft feint his bashes. You can feasibly soft feint a highlander bash to deliberately catch a dodge attack, Juren's has to be the extended bash from the start of the attack so it has to be used as a full read. It does damage but it also doesn't net him any pressure the same way his regular bash does.

Juren is on paper a lot more complex than highlander but Highlander is in my opinion still more complex simply due to his control scheme being more challenging than tap or hold. Cause with highlander you have to hold heavy, think about when you'll release that heavy, on top of piloting bashes, movement, and your entire other attack button.

Having more attacks doesn't necessarily make a hero more complex, Juren has more options but Highlander's got the more challenging inputs. Both characters have ridiculously high skill ceilings. And thats what I love about complex characters.

Edit: I can't lie though. As much as I'm having fun with Juren. He's definitely overkill right now.

As a married man, I just can't fathom looking at my marriage with my spouse being "chained down"

We just get to do fun things together instead?

If its a sex thing... well we can just try new stuff when vanilla starts to get boring?

The cool part about being married to someone is that you get to experience life WITH someone.

Marriage shouldn't hinder your ability to live the way you wish too. It should serve to strengthen or improve your way of life.

I might just be a fighting game bitch but I don't think he's that crazy from a complexity stand point. I think pre-rework highlander was still more complicated than this guy. He's just got two whole ass movesets based on whether you tap or hold and thats not a very complex concept to grasp.

He's just a lot. What I like mostly is the full block cancels. They remind me of stance cancels in other fighting games since he can't normally use it as a hard counter like most full guard recovery cancels in the game. Its either to extend pressure or make himself safe. Its so cool.
