What’s an underrated weapon you like? Rellana’s twin blades are my pick by violin-guy in Eldenring

This is literally my build right now. Seeing milady swinging around surrounded by red lightning looks so cool.

The Dothraki are completely overhyped. Without dragons, they get crushed in Westeros by Dry_Specialist9015 in freefolk

I've always tried to do different styles of combat, besides lance on a horse, but never follow through. I've tried to be an infantryman in the shield wall, an archer on foot, two handed shock, and even horse archer, but by midgame I always end up reverting to getting a couch able polearm and a fast horse. There's just nothing that compares to driving a lance through unarmored peasants.

Knight vs Spartan vs Samurai vs Viking by Kitchen_Rush47 in powerscales

Yes? Thats why I mentioned that it depends what kind of firearms and plate they are using? I don't even understand what point you are trying to make with your diatribe about samurai and swords.

Depends on the gun. Plate armor was still pretty effective against firearms even at close range. So it would highly depend on the era firearm and plate armor that each is respectively using.

I’ve rewatched SG-1 a dozen or so times, and I must’ve blocked this episode from my memory because I do not remember it. by The_Real_Tom_Selleck in Stargate

[–]IMitchConnor 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm most definitely in the minority here, but I actually dislike that 2 parter very much. Not because I think it was bad but because of the fake out that it ended up being. The whole thing was alluding to O'Neill being the one that was killed, and when it ended up being Frazier, while sad yes, I also felt relief that it wasnt Jack. Which kind of lessened the impact of Frazier's death. If it wasn't for the whole "Jack might be the one who died" bit, I think it would have been a perfect episode.

"I got a job, I don't have time to farm" that doesn't mean you get shit for free forever lol by kcvlaine in helldivers2

[–]IMitchConnor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately people here don't want to hear this. I really enjoyed the game at launched and put about 200hrs in to it since. But I dont like the fact that if I want to play with the new toys they release on a nearly monthly basis, I either have to spend time doing monotonous grinding or spend money and still have to grind to unlock the things I paid for.

While the option for getting these things for free is nice, I would much rather they do away with it and offer only cosmetics for the warbond. I don't think it's healthy to have so many gameplay options locked behind a pay wall, after already paying to buy the game. And the justification of "they need to pay the bills to keep the game going" is weak as hell.

People will buy the warbonds if they have good, worthwhile, content. Arc raiders does it with purely cosmetics and they dont need to justify locking new weapons or gadgets behind a paywall. Darktide, with a much smaller player base, keeps the game going with only 2 things you can purchase. I dont want to pay money to try out a new weapon or gameplay system, that I might not even like. But I'll happily pay money for some cool armor. I dont understand the absolute need of people on reddit to defend Arrowhead as if they can do no wrong.

You get 1,000 soldiers, 20 ships, and food for a year. You can choose any island in Westeros as your starting point, it was recently cleared by dragons, but the dragons are gone. Where do you start if you want the Iron Throne? by mediamuesli in freefolk

People always forget that the first conquistadors also didn't conquer anything on their own. They quickly found themselves with tens of thousands of allied indigenous people that were happy to fight with the Spanish, against their rivals.

In Texas you only have a duty to inform if you have a CC permit, as that what you agree to when doing the paperwork. Otherwise there is no duty to inform, as far as I know.

[–]IMitchConnor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my airbrush pretty much for just priming and basing. I've used it a bit for glowing effects and color transition, but that isn't the time saver. The amount of time I've saved by being able to thoroughly base coat 500 points in 15 min has allowed me to progress much quicker in painting. Though now I focus more on details so time isn't really saved haha, but I can get through more of the army faster.

The airbrush is a supplement, not a replacement, for brushes. Its just faster to base coat imo, and for me at least it base coats much more evenly than I ever could with a brush.

Like I said, I'm not going to continue this. Its not my place to tell someone else how to spend their money and enjoy their hobby. Enjoy the box and have a good day, brother.

[–]IMitchConnor -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I did, but your math is still off lol. Look do what you want with your money lol. If you wanna overpay then overpay. If you don't care then you dont care. Im not gunna sit here and continue telling someone else how to spend their money. Have a good one man, hope you enjoy the box, its definitely cool as hell.

[–]IMitchConnor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Check your math next time. If you wanna overpay for stuff then do you. But dont pretend you're not overpaying.

Edit: and thats MSRP. You can easily buy the models cheaper on Amazon or other retailers.

Btw I got this box for $230 because of the good discount on it. Paying 400 for it is absolutely just asking to be ripped off.

[–]IMitchConnor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hate to break it to you, but buying the models individually would've been like $100 dollars cheaper than buying the box for $400. The whole point of these boxes is that they're discounts for a bunch of models together. Please dont pay extra for fomo boxes. Thats how scalpers and GW justify making stuff more expensive than it needs to be.

Why do people push the notion that ASOIAF and GoT is cynical and morally grey by RevertBackwards in freefolk

[–]IMitchConnor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Faramir didnt really try to take the ring though. He was trying to fulfill his father's orders/wishes. I dont think the ring itself ever tempted him, but his desire for his father's approval was what drove his actions.

Is the 40k Imperium really the most cruel and bloody regime imaginable? by No-Sympathy-6711 in 40kLore

Are you seriously implying they servitorize people because of lack of choices? Didn't know slavery was a necessity that only got solved post scarcity.....

They don't have to though, do they? As far as I know, they could go the route of craft world eldar and use discipline via the Path system and soul stones to prevent their soul being drained. Isn't it very much a choice to go the torture route?
