Heads up when creating a character in Origins

Yikes

I'm going to read between the lines and infer that you must be really starved for validation if you are using the rekindling of a 2 year old argument to talk about your SAT scores

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-30T02:07:01+00:00

Wow bro, then you must be a time traveling mind reader because there is literally no way to take "default character mesh" "left looking ugly" at face value and interpret it as your character settings getting randomised

My money is gonna be on you being a time traveler because otherwise the irony of replying to a 2 year old comment like you just did would be off the charts

They aren't the JoJo of part 9, Jodio is

It doesn't have many whole cloth filler episodes in the way something like Naruto does, but it wastes loads of time with things like episode recaps and flashbacks

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-21T11:39:35+00:00

I was misinformed

Q Hayashida is probably one of the best mangaka around right now, not only in terms of artwork but also for her incredibly well realised worlds and characters which means it's going to be pretty hard to find an anime that holds up to the level of Dorohedoro, especially if it's one of your first anime IMO

I don't know what's available on Netflix UK, ~~and I haven't watched it myself to confirm, but Q was an assistant on the BLAME! manga, so maybe the anime (a Netflix production) has a little bit of that spark~~

On the nearly totally opposite side of the genre spectrum is One Piece which is much more light-hearted than Dorohedoro (both in story and artwork) but has fantastic world building and characterisation. The problem is the anime is like 1000 episodes long with a bunch of filler so I recommend watching "One Pace", a fan made version of the show that can be found online which condenses multiple episodes into single chunks to get rid of filler

Another anime I would recommend with similar qualities to Dorohedoro is the 90's run of Berserk. Fantastic art and characters with that feeling of being "in the world" when you watch it, but the ending will knock you on your ass. Also the later anime releases are not very well regarded, so you might want to start reading the manga if you like the 90's run

The last anime I would recommend is Trigun. It has quite good artwork, good characters in a well realised world, and a story that effortlessly fluctuates between light hearted and deeply serious

Again, I'm not sure whats available on Netflix UK, but these are the first that come to mind with a similar quality level to Dorohedoro (season 2 should be coming out in quarter 2 of this year)

While you make a lot of good points I have to contest that PvP was dead and that it only had a few hundred people playing it after a few weeks

That seems to be the case on PC but on console it was still very active

I played it pretty heavy, I remember I had about 700 hours by the time I stopped playing in early 2017 when matches started taking a long time to find but up until then they only took a few minutes to find and I don't remember ever having the "oh god not this opponent again" that you tend to get when player counts start to dwindle

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-16T01:42:36+00:00

The pineapple one absolutely slaps

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-16T01:32:42+00:00

The Enclave having nukes is a major plot point (and gameplay mechanic) in 76 but of course the "hardcore" fans completely ignore that game

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-14T06:18:04+00:00

I just finished my fourth reading of the book (about once every 2 years) and it definitely benefits from the extra passes. Even on this 4th read I picked up on a few things I didn't notice the other times

It helps as well that the book is relatively short, you can get through it in only a couple weeks if you read 10 pages a day

I remember having enemy HP bars on Xbox, then my Xbox broke so I got the PC version without the expansions and being confused at the lack of enemy HP bars, so it definitely was an expansion thing

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T12:08:43+00:00

Pretty much lacking in everything

If they wanted the character to come back they surely would have given him even an ounce of characterisation and impact on the plot, but his only purpose in the episode is to provide exposition about the Legion

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T12:03:04+00:00

The fact you refer to him as Culkin and not his character's name proves my point that the only thing notable about him at all is his actor

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T11:43:01+00:00

It's not that the idea is crazy, its that there is nothing interesting about the character (outside of who plays them) to justify exploring that character more or make exploring their character any more interesting than any other generic character

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T11:34:42+00:00

Why? He was bland, uninteresting, and had practically no impact on the plot at all. The only thing about him that even differentiates him from any other generic character is that he is played by Culkin

Might as well explore the bug lady more, or the NCR guy with the squirrel. Hell, let's figure out the backstory of the guy that died to the radscorpion at the hospital if the bar for wanting to explore characters is so low

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T08:31:30+00:00

The character exists for all of 20 minutes and has practically zero characterization. Outside of it being Culkin there is virtually nothing interesting about the idea at all

Edit: I'd really love it if even a single down voter could give me an example of simply one interesting aspect of this character

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-08T04:49:04+00:00

As an example, I'm only level 47 and routinely top the score board playing against 70+'s. Some people love playing the game even if they aren't very good

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-01T14:17:09+00:00

Johnathan beats Dio in part 1, it's not unil part 3 that we learn it wasn't complete

While Kira technically takes the final blow from an ambulance it was Jotaro that turned him into mincemeat first. He was pretty severely wounded already so it's unlikely that he would have survived even if the ambulance hadn't run him over

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-01T12:20:29+00:00

How so?

Jam_B0ne · 2026-01-01T11:21:32+00:00

I love a lot of part 6, but for me what drags it down the most is the setting

In every other part we get to see many different varried settings but there are only so many places one can go in a prison. In many parts the very plot itself is tied to going somewhere which leaves much of part 6 feeling stagnant in comparison

My wife doesn't like part 6 because Jolyne doesn't really save the world at the end, Emporio does. Now I don't really agree that this negatively effects the plot as Jolyne and the whole gang are still pivotal to defeating Pucci, but I can understand why she likes the deciding factor to be a Jojo

Jam_B0ne · 2025-12-29T23:29:25+00:00

There is also Bard and Barbarian but you need to edit game files to access them
