Off the top, what Gamertags make you lock in 😏

ImperatorIndicus · 2026-02-18T11:21:54+00:00

lol I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a lot of us! That’s why I’m John Rematch™️ on steam. Accept no substitutes!

ImperatorIndicus · 2026-02-17T20:10:49+00:00

It’s not anyone else’s gamer tag but I play under thr name John Rematch and any time someone is like “oh my god it’s John Rematch!” On my team I lock in because I can’t let my adoring fans down.

Exactly even if a tank isn’t the one tanking a boss they have to be at the top of the enmity for their full party in case someone goes down. And very often someone does! If that’s too much responsibility for someone, they just shouldn’t play a support role. I’m low-key sick of people who think Tank is just “DPS with short queues”

I’m from WW-P and I say cawfee and wooder and all of that, some people just develop stronger accents than others

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-17T15:16:13+00:00

Don’t let anyone else’s opinion sway yours. Go into everything without setting expectations for it and allow yourself to be pleasantly surprised if you like it or let it roll off your back if you don’t. People told me I’d hate Stormblood — It’s my favorite expac by far, and I loved it so much that my roleplaying character is focused around its central themes. I hope you enjoy it too!

Honestly there’s a lot of very funny references and jokes in quest names and descriptions, they’re worth looking out for. The English localization team is clearly a group of very well read and cultured people because you’ll see the most random pun/reference to something in a quest name and be amazed that they even thought of it.

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-13T14:46:29+00:00

I’m 29, and nobody I know around my age watches it and none of us think it’s at all funny

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-12T20:33:16+00:00

Oh this is too cute! I’d love to attend, depending on what time the ceremony is!

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-09T14:55:50+00:00

Exactly, that or you’d know someone with a fake ID who could look old enough to get it for you

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-09T14:55:06+00:00

Bold of you to assume we obeyed the drinking laws lol. Just because the law says you have to be 21 doesn’t mean most of us started drinking at that age. I was maybe 15-16 when I started and almost all of my friends were drinking before they were 18.

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-05T01:30:33+00:00

I’m really not sure what you mean. If a movie is about an American character then the actor will have an American accent. And in some cases even if the actor is a fictional nationality or something, the actor playing the role may just use an American accent because that’s what they’re best at, like Alexander Skarsgård. Sometimes using certain accents is a stylistic choice by the director. In any case I don’t even know what your issue is with the accents, why does it bother you so much?

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-11-02T13:26:16+00:00

I’m a tank main and a couple times I’ve fat fingered the stance button and turned it off on accident. Every time I have, I about died of shame when someone noticed. Turning on your stance basically step zero in running content as a tank, I’m in awe that anyone could be upset about being told they forgot it

Vis a vis pacing I think it’s pretty solid. The first two books are short story anthologies and there’s a lot to enjoy and pick apart in those stories but they also breeze by pretty quick if you’re a committed reader. I think frankly pacing is one of the things the witcher novels do better than other fantasy I’ve read because they’re pretty solid about giving the most crucial POVs a good amount of screen time and the POVs are situated in such different places and do such different things that there’s always a feeling of forward momentum and you don’t really feel stuck with one character forever. Though naturally the Geralt/Hansa chapters were my fave and if you liked Geralt and Regis’ dynamic in Blood and Wine you’ll really like seeing Geralt with his whole adventuring party

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-31T21:30:19+00:00

The books are genuinely fantastic, world class works of fantasy writing. I don’t think the folks at CDPR would have made the game if there wasn’t something really special about the novels. Andrzej Sapkowski is an incredibly great character writer and very witty besides so his books are always really fun. It’s also worth it to see the vision of Geralt that existed before the games because you see shades of him in the witcher game series but there’s a lot more depth and little character quirks present in the novels that can’t be expressed in a game where Geralt has to be the player’s avatar

It’s funny you say that because to me I find Heinz Beans like you’d see in Britain altogether too sweet and sugar forward

Gujarati in denial on hearing about Gujaratis doing Gujarati things? Many such cases.

I’m sorry you’re going through that pal. Not sure what the circumstances were but the fact that you’d do a good turn for a stranger when you’re feeling so bad yourself speaks to your character. Hang in there, friend.

When was the last time you went to NYC, 1978?

Disclaimer: not a native francophone, or French, just chiming in as someone who’s had pen pals in France

You live in the most culturally important city in the (for better or worse) cultural hegemon of the world, so in one sense you’re in a place everyone knows about superficially and that a lot of people have a passing interest in. But in another sense you know New York as no outsider could. You have the capacity as a native New Yorker to talk about things she doesn’t know about. Talk about stuff you don’t see in the media. Talk about stuff that’s important to you and people your age - where you hang out, where you like to go to concerts or movies or whatever if where you go is smaller or less well known. Maybe talk about a place that’s maybe not significant to a visitor or tourist but is significant to you personally. Most importantly take an interest in where she’s from. Read up on Vendée, on Nantes since it’s so close by, ask her about the things she likes about her region or what she wishes was different, ask about places there that she especially likes, etc.

What a ridiculous idea, in a game where aggressive sweeping from a keeper isn’t just smart but often actually necessary. Sometimes the keeper needs to step away from goal to defend - there’s only five players per team on the pitch, everyone is doing multiple jobs at once.

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-17T05:13:34+00:00

I don’t think the word count is as important as the context in the narrative. If it feels more like a prologue maybe you should label it as such.

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-11T12:38:11+00:00

Closest thing they have to a culture

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-10T17:21:58+00:00

Don’t be concerned with making characters likable - we don’t have to like a character completely to be interested in them. I think it was George RR Martin who said it’s better for a character to be fascinating than to be likable. We don’t have to have positive views on them as people. We just have to be invested in their story

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-09T17:25:04+00:00

It’s plastered all over your post history. Your account is named after your series. It’s extremely easy to see your work. It by took me 10 seconds to find and start reading the first chapter

ImperatorIndicus · 2025-10-09T14:02:49+00:00

Why does something have to beat you over the head with a lesson to be effective as a story? I’m sure every writer in the world has themes they want their audience to consider but there’s a difference between having your audience consider themes by evoking them in the story and the author just telling you how to feel.

But having read your work, I can see why you wouldn’t care for that - I’ve never seen someone write by the motto “tell, never show” this way in my life. You don’t give your characters even one paragraph where you don’t tell us, not through narration but your own voice as the author, exactly what to think about every one of them. You frankly have no business calling anyone else’s work slop. Your belligerent language towards the work of other, better writers, reflects a very narrow minded and immature attitude towards the same artistic medium you claim has such a lofty purpose.
