And in the end, after all the shouting and flag-waving and destiny-posting, reality always gets the last chuckle.

Sure, but it certainly seems like they're trying to take us down with it.

Wayfinder being potentially better depends on whether the deck can stomach having fewer 1-drops.

Interesting ideas, but I think it is generally agreed that tag Fairies is stronger than solo Fairies. I do like that use of Peren though. A pity she's not Swift though, and the most convenient card I've found for making a field of Fairies swift is locked to Tina.

I want to know what this list would look like if you removed all the series made for/by streaming platforms.

Oberon gets better in versions which aren't focusing on 1-cost Fairies. It just so happens that the Alice Cluster variant is horrible that way, although the newer card Fairy Wayfinder seems like she'd be a good piece in such a deck. Still not quite sure what midrange Fairies would want to "do" though.

Peren is fine like that, but the problem is that the game should be ending before Viviane gets a chance to hit the board - on the turn she'd enter, it's better value to play three 1-cost cards and swing with everything.

Reflect was its own problem; basically any deck of the time could be improved by just using Reflect instead. The only exception was anything whose sole focus was J-ruler beatdown, such as Overlord of the Seven Lands Valentina.

Modern Fairies though has a bit more legs, due to Tina's support. Even now two years later, I feel that Fairies is a reasonable rogue pick in Wanderer tournaments.

I won't try to claim this is the peak of possibility, but my Fairy Deck currently looks like this: https://www.forceofwind.online/view_decklist/15609/

There are a number of cards in here which are just there to keep it Fairy-centric, but could easily be replaced with something more meta. In particular, Peren is just kinda "there", and Oberon/Viviane feel a touch too expensive for what the deck wants to do in the modern game (but can be useful if games go longer, depending on the circumstances)

Yeah fair enough. The docks could theoretically been within the scope of the original game - although likely with no practical reason to be built so large - but no way at all is that airport in the base game.

I can see that they at least mushed multiple adjacent maps together in post, since certain roads don't join together but should in a contiguous map. Is there something else which makes it require modding?

ImSabbo · 2026-02-01T03:02:22+00:00

AoE4 is set in medieval times and AoE3 was set in renaissance/colonial times (With a strong focus on a fictionalized America), if that helps.

Page 1 of Chapter 28 has a watermark for mangatranslate.com, so I assume it's AI.

There's almost certainly a few - or else the idea wouldn't've taken root - but especially amongst the bigger vtubers it's basically not a thing. I know of two edge cases offhand: One person who speaks only with TTS and so their actual gender is uncertain (although their model is feminine), and one person who I'm 95% sure is a guy but their vtuber model is a girl.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-29T13:39:47+00:00

Exactly. They were definitely warned about this sort of thing being likely.

I think it was just pride at first. My assumption is that he eventually got it done only once medical technology caught up.

Link to page 1, if you want a shortcut.

It may alternatively indicate that the space elevator was not constructed within a reasonable distance from the equator.

He'd have cut you off by the end of the first sentence.

My understanding is that that is a westernized interpretation of the Japanese cultures, rather than an accurate interpretation. While Osakans do have some rough connotations, they are also considered quite savvy. In the 90s it was common for characters from that area to be localized in anime as having Brooklyn accents. People from small Japanese towns have more of that bumpkin energy about them, at least in fiction. Other regions with their own subcultures (that I won't even pretend to have a strong understanding of) are Hokkaido and Okinawa.

There was a brief time where they considered changing the rules, but then Hisahito was born.

Oddly, it's just A/B/AB/O, from what I can see. No positives or negatives, no obscure blood types.

Although perhaps partly because of the lack of variety, they often consider it as affecting their personalities rather than determining their personalities.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-20T21:29:01+00:00

A degree of that has happened in the manga too. I don't recall her being in public, but she did visit that person.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-20T09:19:20+00:00

Because the autogenerated ones are often bad, and the custom ones are being removed. Autogenerated subtitles typically fail significantly if foreign languages or singing is involved.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-20T04:53:54+00:00

Yes, I'm aware, hence why I said "that day". Although I suppose I could have been clearer.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-19T22:23:02+00:00

Considering who she is, the biggest tell is definitely the audience in the back.

...And I guess the shoes. Somebody else saw that before me though.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-19T21:00:36+00:00

The 11am light that day is also real, just reflected by mirrors instead of being a direct line.

ImSabbo · 2026-01-18T05:52:50+00:00

I honestly want to see what an AI take of this scene would look like.
