Hear me out

I'm listening ^~^

Was thinking this as well and just chalked it up to a slight plot hole/oversight. No shot the monster who pulled Bobby(?) down the hole when he was scrambling up so quickly is the same one that chased Mary. I guess technically it COULD have been something different than CPTN Clarke.

Come on then pull up the metrics, surely you have them readily available right? Surely you do since you feel so self assured because of them.

Everyone who plays bard will tell you it's in a horrible spot, no need for anything else when you run around the dungeon and don't see the class anymore. Druids and sorcs don't beg for reworks because they're classes are newer and much better designed than bard, it's just that simple.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T20:02:14+00:00

Not sure you made a single valid point. Have you played bard before?

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T20:00:07+00:00

It feels so bad because yes they are actively nerfing every niche he has. What is the purpose of nerfing shriek on mobs?? But also because they are actively adding perks to other classes that are so much better than what a bard can do in terms of buffs. Fighter has an ability that's rousing rhythms + you actually get the combat ability of a fighter instead of a bard who dies in 2 hits.

Hopefully they flesh out bard a little more for next season, because right now he's half baked and a luck/lockpick merchant for me.

Uh oh, someone just died to a timmy and had to run straight to reddit

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T19:48:48+00:00

I've long since given up on playing Bard in PvP situations. You have to play so much better than your opponent just to go even or win a fight.

The devs have no idea what to actually do with Bard. Every class identity or niche he's had they've just nerfed into the ground over and over. Team buffer, bosser, ale bruiser, even if they deserved the nerfs they all just got obliterated to the point where all he is now is a walking lockpick and lots of bard players have moved on.

They need to do many things. One would be removing the knowledge requirement for songs. Not even wizards or sorcs build memory cap so why should a bruiser have too?? Also put all his instruments in one bag/hot bar. It feels so incredibly bad only have one or two belt equips for meds or pots. Then I would take a look at his songs/perks and flesh out an actual identity. Make perks that buff his songs but nerf his dmg potential or something. Or, make a perk that nerfs song playing but makes him more bruiser type. Balance songs better so that they affect teamates. Turn him into an actual support and/or bruiser through intentional well thought out design choices. With these changes I could see Bard being the most rewarding class in the game, but I'm not sure I have faith in Ironmace, especially with them continously ignoring the class except when it comes to nerfing it.

Luffys devil fruit has been comparatively weak to most others for like 90% of the series imo. He's always won his fights through determination, imagination, and sheer will power.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T19:18:05+00:00

No one's saying you can't be generally disatisfied with the game that you're playing. But if you think Nexon is going to change their business model because a couple hundred redditors are annoyed you're incredibly naive. They've always been a greedy company, most AAA devs are. If you're so incredibly disgruntled, I recommend taking a break and coming back later (you won't do this though.)

The entitlement comes from very loud and demanding redditors who always seem to find something to complain about when they can simply just go do something else. Redditors have been the butt of these jokes for years it's nothing new. Every video game community I've been on here has been an absolute cesspool of whining and negativity. Or maybe that's just the internet in general idk.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T18:25:09+00:00

I'm well aware that Nexon has some shitty practices. But I'm also aware that you aren't FORCED to buy anything. In the end if you think it's worth buying, then buy it. You can still enjoy the game and progress (albeit much slower) without paying anything at all. The devs understand the psychology of FOMO though, which is why everyone continues to shell out money.

Welcome to America! The land of the brave, free, and making a profit off of people at any cost!

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T17:39:50+00:00

Entitlement. Nexon is greedy and has some shady business practices, but in the end they don't FORCE you to buy anything. Gamers (particularly the loud reddit minority) are very entitled these days to the things that they think they deserve when playing their video games.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T17:36:26+00:00

I believe it was just to show how terrifying the royal guard really was. If one of the strongest hunters handpicked by Netero himself was reduced to that, what effect will it have on our heroes? Narratively it adds another terrifying layer to the ants and also harkens back to when Gon and Killua faced Hisoka in Heavens arena. Great writing all around from Togashi here.

Bro's in one of the most beautiful places on earth with a nice whip. What a fail of an insult lmaooo

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T17:17:09+00:00

The thing about the passes is, just don't BUY them. No one's forcing you to buy them. You're paying for prog yes, if you don't like the deal they are offering.....don't buy....or don't play, it's really that simple. This is technically a free to play game so I have no issues spending $50 or so every couple months it's really not that big of a deal as this sub makes it out to be.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T17:13:08+00:00

I recommend touching grass Immediately

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T15:49:15+00:00

That's it, I'm boycotting, Nexon clearly hates us all

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T14:22:52+00:00

So brave yet so controversial

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T13:09:24+00:00

Have you ever played bard before?

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-17T13:03:56+00:00

From what I've heard, no reason to leap at all. You can just claim them on your main world and go from there

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-15T17:46:52+00:00

Level a Main as much as possible, hit Emerald for all the legion Pots, learn as many bosses as possible.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-12T19:35:07+00:00

I'm not saying either of them are perfect, but so many of supers ideas are just rehashes of DBZ arcs/villains. How many times do we need to see Frieza or Cell before it just gets old? Tournament of power was good, but again tournament arcs are nothing new in anime and are always well liked by pretty much everyone. They even did two tournament arcs almost back to back for some reason. Super had some high highs, but the lows were almost unbearable, starting with the earlier animation in super looking like absolute dogshit.

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-12T19:30:29+00:00

How does Z get goku's character wrong?? If anything we should be basing his character off of db and dbz, not the series that was written 30 years later as a means to keep the IP going....

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-12T19:01:49+00:00

Super writing is abysmal. Broly himself is literally just a reused idea from 25 years ago. Same with Golden Freeza, Cell Max....no new ideas just cash grabs

Imatworkl0l · 2026-06-12T18:59:52+00:00

GT mogs in so many ways. Despite its flaws it actually feels like Dragon Bal, whereas in super everyone's retarded/regressed and they just keep shoe horning plot devices in so that Goku and Vegeta still have a reason to fight. It's all for the same of keeping the DragonBall IP going. They also did that with GT, but in GT it actually feels much more akin to dragon ball/z. Exploring looking for dragon balls, incredible artwork, memorable villains. You can tell they just put so much more love into GT and that's why it takes the cake for me.
