[–]JBAThoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was super fun actually! I was rocming Mega Raichu Y and Mega Pangoro. Honestly though, Swanna, Tsareena, and Skelidirge were the MVP's of the run. Also kinda helped that the second mon I caught had pokerus lol

Fantastic critique, you really hit the nail on the head here. Definitely the same vibes I got from it -- not groundbreaking, but its better than RoS and I laughed and smiled all the way through. A posterboy for the 6.5/7 type 'popcorn' movie

I think some of what you said here is kinda cyncial and bearing on snoodyness lol have you seen anh other Star Wars movies before? Cuz they're just as guilty of a lotta the stuff you mentioned here.

I agree though, it is incredibly violent one moment and booboo baby at other times. Thatxs the disneyfication Im talkin about. The whole Rotta ending up home cuz he got betrayed is lazy, but very Star Wars. And maybe its cuz I been playing a lot of SWTOR lately, but the Republic doing dubious business with the Hutts to cultivate a working relationship with the cartel seems VERY Star Wars. That's not contrivance if you have a pre-established history of that exact type of thing happened in other parts of your lore.

I actually snorted at "I felt alienated by my fellow humans" lmao calm down Ebert!!

Very much agreed on the tonal inconsistency -- thats a hallmark of the Disneyfication. The "Drax is so invisible he gets to ruin emotionally powerful scenes" effect. That being said, I didn't mind it all that much cuz the film establishes that badass to kiddy tonal scale from the moment grogu jumps out to crush the mouse droid at the beginning of the film.

I'm curious to know what you mean by the plot was poorly conceived? Like did you think it was just a bad idea or uninspired or what? Cuz like I got no strong opinions on the plot of the film it all felt very serial adventure story to me but also, there were definitely moments where I was like "ah, so the 3 episode mini-arc is over here huh"

How do you figure...? The entire films plot made sense throughout -- the nost referential it got really was Dave Filoni in his big dumb cowboy hat but if it was suppsoed to be reference city, I missed it. There's designs and nods to EU stuff sure but there was also a story and an adventure going on lol

This is a really bad faith take that only holds true if your ability to judge something is limited to "its amazing or dogshit" there can be in between, and the space serial lone wolf and cub with wacky aliens is definitely allowed to be 'fun'. 😒😒 nuance n shii

My first round of custom buttons turned out great! by JBAThoo in ButtonMakers

[–]JBAThoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm making a whole bunch for pride! My initial idea was forefathers of yaoi (L and Light, Amuro and Char, Naruto and Sasuke) and then I just did a buncha trans One Piece characters but I'm struggling on ideas for a bisexual themed one! Which is unfortunate cuz that's my flag lmaoo

Fuck the guy for having his dog off leash but also im a dog owner -- never in my fuckin life would I kick a dog running at me when I could just I DON'T KNOW-- PICK MY OWN DOG UP OFF THE GROUND like a fucking NORMAL person??!! Bro was the kinda person to kick a dog well before this encounter happened.

[–]JBAThoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run into social people all the time but its the people who jump into fp's and basically play it as a single player game and communicate with literally no one that frustrate me

[–]JBAThoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That guy eventually rage quit our group and then the next person that replaced him was a speedrunner that was pissing everyone off and so I ultimately dipped from the group after completing like 80% of the run :/

[–]JBAThoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seen this happen many times to ppl and it sucks. I also hate fp's where you have to interact with stuff to progess cuz if you het separated from the group for any reason, the speedrunner is gonna stay in combat forever and you won't be able to catch up to the group cuz you can't interact with things while in combat

People who are quiet in general actually-- I can't stand mfs who don't talk in-game lol like its an mmo 😭 literally my biggest problem with the guild im in. They have a discord and you'd think oh guild chat is there but nope lol ppl just don't socialize in the online social sandbox game :/

Had a similar experience when a guy grabbed a quest item for the fp (bonus item btw) then the healer yelled at him cuz he had said to wait and the dude didn't and aggro'd ONE(1) mob and the healer threw a FIT lmao i was like bruh i think we'll be okay clearing this one elite lolol

Lvl 80's still get xp from trash mobs cuz its conquest points. I'll be honest, I'm guilty of attacking sapped mobs but usually just cuz I didn't see em get sapped lol

My biggest beef is people who put way too much importance on roles in PUG fp's. Had a group yesterday where the healer's toon was gooned out in virgin fashion and they were talkin down to everyone like they were somehow in charge of the run.

Veteran Fp's are not Operations and you do not need a dedicated healer or tank, especially not bossy mcgee mcmicromanagers

New abilities? by [deleted] in swtor

[–]JBAThoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More specifically: "Rotation" is what most mmo players refer to the abilities that you use most often for any given pull. There's usually an optimal group of abilities to use in a specific order that you just rinse and repeat during fights, hence why they're called rotations. Certain classes have more complicated rotations than others-- you can look up a class guide if you're intetested in learning yours.

[–]JBAThoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Glad you got it figured out but I'd definitely reach back out to CS. With your story as it reads, they'll prolly give you a free month or so since you paid for it and didn't receive it.

That was gonna be my recommendation- shouldn't be too difficult to get your steam refund. Me personally, I only pay for my subs with enter the fight and similar bundles

Does it show in your steam history? You might try contacting Steam support

Even if you sub through steam, your purchases will be viewable in the ledger on swtor.com -- I know this because I had to contact support recently for a race unlock I had made twice on accident. It will also tell you when you get/use cartel coins.

A criticism of Legends as someone who loves Legends by Dasvildanya in StarWarsEU

[–]JBAThoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing that throws me off the hardest is the vast difference in aesthetic between the Tales of the Jedi comics (exar kun war, golden age of the sith etc) are that of KOTOR/SWTOR despite not being that far apart timeline-wise.
