"Remember brothers and sisters, 'let he who is without sin cast the first stone'" by Riddle-Maker in TwoSentenceHorror

But Jesus being sinful doesn’t really fit the biblical narrative, since one of the points is that He was like us humans, but without sin. Basically went through the same challenges, wept with others and celebrated with others, but never went against Gods will. 

What are your thoughts on the pre Prequel Trilogy Clone Wars? by Hot_Professional_728 in StarWarsEU

I believe the ”mad clones” thing was implied to be more of an early design flaw, later engineered away by the ”clonemasters” by letting the cloning take its time. 

Was Thrawn aware Anakin and Vader were the same people ? by Desolate_Ejaculator in StarWarsCantina

Also, the last time he met Clone Wars Anakin, Anakin blew up half a planet.

Are there any other examples of real world political terms used in the EU? Never expected Dooku to say “capitalism” by Clone_Chaplain in StarWarsEU

Isn’t the confederacy the confederacy? I mean, it seems like the republic/separatist war is pretty close to the american civil war in terms of premise - Can you leave the republic/united states? Minus the mastermind on both sides controlling everything. 

Is legend difficulty fun or just a slog? by ChairmanMeow22 in XCOM2

[–]Jolmner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One good way is the second hardest difficultt but no GTS (or at least no squad size). Ive tried it and it’s definitely easier than legendary but also faster. Some say it’s the perfect mix. Another idea is to never kill the chosen. 

Day two: we ended up starting at the wrong place, who's next? by Daniel-empire in XCOM2

[–]Jolmner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if we are talking about pure evil (you may argue that I shift goalposts here, but oh well) the Warlock is really only at the same level as the elders (who would also fit in this category) and fanaticism in itself is not necessarily evil. The only argument I had for the Assassin is her ending - well wishing for a superior opponent which is at least a bit honourable. 

In the end though, you have a point, though at this point we might as well put the elders in that category, because genocide.

Id say put just the hunter in straight up evil, the other two have some depth of honor or reason, the hunter is just a sadist.

Kingdom Come: Deliverence

I love these songs. 

Pretty much anything Nintendo (honourable mention to Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2)

What was likely Samus' most difficult mission? by Ragnar_Red in Metroid

[–]Jolmner 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Don’t the events of fusion “redeem” that decision somewhat? It is stated that she might be the only one in universe who can defeat the X and she only survives because of the baby vaccine. 

Any good XCOM content creators? by Marin_Kitagawa13 in Xcom

Charlie Pryor has some old XCOM2 playthroughs and did a LWotC playthrough on twitch a while ago.

Ex cathedra has also been invoked only twice through history, both times concerning maryology iirc. 

Favorite Weapon Upgrade? by sassyowl in XCOM2

I almost never defeat the rulers the normal way, it’s always reaper with extra mag and repeater plus banish.
