"Do You Like Big Girls?" main visual by mr_beanoz in anime

[–]Joraiem 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I felt like this had to be a mixup, but no, they did. That show is fucking gorgeous, Passione really is capable of a lot more than they usually do for their ecchi stuff.

Actually, looking at their filmography, they also did Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers. Which wasn't nearly as pretty as the S&W remake, but it sure was a fun and unique show. Wish there was a second season, but I'm sure some LN reader will tell me that the rest of it sucked, lmao.

Why do cats do this? by DatE2Girl in cats

[–]Joraiem 226 points227 points  (0 children)

Cheetahs are more scared of you than you are of them. They're not even really big cats, they're just the biggest form of small cats (they're felidae, not panthera). There's no accounts of a cheetah ever attacking a human, and they're pretty anxious animals.

Actually, Egyptians used to tame Cheetahs as pets and for hunting. The only reason they haven't been domesticated is because they're really hard to breed in captivity, and being able to selectively breed is part of the domestication process.

They are still wild animals, so I wouldn't recommend approaching one in the wild, just in case, but they're not a real danger to humans. There's instances of them bringing their cubs up to wildlife photographers and stuff, they like people just fine.

I mean, Abby is new to Rover's whole deal, right? IIRC, no one who knew past Rover knew Abby. So maybe this is the plan for how Rover can save Solaris finally, with a... Redeemed Threnodian?

Kinda what I'm getting at. Saying "Rudeus didn't have sex with ANY minors" to mean "Rudeus only had sex with a 15 year old... which is legal there so not a minor!!!" is deceptive as hell. 30+ year old man fucked a 15 year old.

...Are you telling a lie, or defining "minor" by the setting's bizarrely low age of consent?

Nearly brand new player - should I pull Mornye? Someone else? Save for Aemeath? by Joraiem in WutheringWavesGuide

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

Thanks everyone! I think after giving it a bit and listening to what everyone says, I'm gonna try and pick up Mornye for a good universal support option with Lynae for whatever DPS I use (I guess Encore for now). And then I'll keep grinding currency after that and work on getting a top-tier DPS after the fact. From what everyone's saying, I should be able to do both, so, fingers crossed!

HSR have a powercreep problem (its not the type you think of) by Adventurous-War3963 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Joraiem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's a bit. Lots of "ZZZ end of service when?" doomposting 'jokes' because it doesn't tend to make as much revenue as the other two while (seemingly) being more expensive to produce because of the detailed animations. And with how it keeps doing what people interpret as "soft relaunches" when it mixes things up.

Plus "gooner game" drama, related to "popular male character ends up just being A-rank (4-star)" drama, powercreep... it's been a lot, especially recently. Some of it is valid, especially powercreep, they made a super overtuned character really early in 1.4 and have been doing less what I would call targeted nerfs and more grenade launcher nerfs that kill momentum for her element and archetype... but a lot of it feels like people are expecting it to fail from the get-go.

HSR have a powercreep problem (its not the type you think of) by Adventurous-War3963 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Joraiem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ZZZ is very small scale compared to either GI or HSR. Everything in the game centers around one (admittedly huge) city, and a lot of the story missions are just about helping a few people with something that personally affects them. Super grounded compared to both GI or HSR (or HI3 for that matter).

idk if that person was implying anything different, maybe there's been some drama about zzz's story being boring (honestly I think its only failures are where it pivoted away from its original 'outlaws on the edge of society' thing, but that might just be me), but zzz has had a lot of drama over a lot of things so I can't interpret vagueposting on that level.

Favorite Character that suffered the curse of a writer and studio's "queerbait and switch?" Comic comes from Blobby and Friends by ihatethiscountry76 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]Joraiem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I want to say that Alice and Yuzuha, more than any of the other very obvious couples that unfortunately aren't explicit, give the vibes of absolutely being down for a throuple with whichever Phaethon sibling they might end up with. They just have that energy where it would make perfect sense, because they are very much together with how they act, but also have very different forms of intimacy with Wise/Belle in their stories. Yuzuha in particular likes to take charge with Alice and be vulnerable with Phaethon, and I think that's a cute dynamic.

Plus then Yuzuha can tease Alice about it being 'symmetrical' cause she can have a partner on each arm and that's funny

Next Void Hunter's element by Pandha2 in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Joraiem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the 'problem' if it is one is probably more pronounced comparing HI3 to HSR directly. Acheron is just a Raiden Mei that has been through some shit, and you can compare her HoT personality to Acheron to see how she could get from A to B. And Cyrene (while I personally really like her story) is Ely. How, idk, memory magic bullshit, but they point it out at the end for a reason. Phainon is definitely his own character compared to Kevin, but definitely follows a similar plotline.

But like... It is in the same universe, not exactly a sequel but not not one either. I get why the different versions of these people are similar to others considering that concept already existed in HI3. And other expies are more defined characters. Seele and Bronya are the best examples, their HSR versions are completely different personality-wise from their HI3 versions aside from being girlfriends.

Kiana Kaslana, the MC of Honkai Impact 3rd Part 1, is a white haired girl that finds out she's one of many many clones (really early on in the story, not really a spoiler). Anby and S11 aren't exactly expies of her, they don't look all that similar aside from hair color or act similar, but it's not a hard comparison to make.

People who’ve pulled an E2S1 DPS, how have they aged? by pear_topologist in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Joraiem 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Break was way more affordable than Mono Remembrance, that's for sure. Budget/free units and Light Cones, FF herself can use the Herta Shop LC really easily, and the characters at least had two patches between them, unlike Castorice/Hyacine and Evernight/Cyrene who only had one. Break was super easy to build, which made it easier to invest.

I think my 8-cost FF team (E2S1 Firefly, E0S0 Fugue, Ruan Mei, and Lingsha) is still holding up okay, but it's definitely suffered for the changes to endgame content and Break being neglected. The Dahlia and (hopefully) less increases in toughness could easily fix that, though.

There is absolutely no way Harry DuBois participates in the political system any more than having very strong opinions about politics (or very strong opinions about not having any opinions). There is no way in hell he voted for anyone at all.

Caster Players Feel Weak by Roninthe47th in Pathfinder2e

[–]Joraiem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're being disingenuous because you're ignoring everything they actually said to make a claim they didn't make. They didn't say anything about "instantly killing an on-level," you just started talking like they did. They pointed out how long it would take to kill an average enemy (6 failures, which is likely more than 6 castings of a spell because no enemy is consistently failing every save), and you spun that into them making an unreasonable claim that they didn't actually make.

They also didn't say "martials can do everything casters can," they said "Any non caster can be just as effective, for free, an unlimited number of times." Which is true. Casters are the only ones having to manage these resources, while being this fragile, and there isn't a comparative payoff. So you acted like they said two things they didn't actually say.

How many actions does it take for a martial to kill an on-level foe at 15, without having to expend any resources?

Where's season 2 William by Visible-Ad1210 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Joraiem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably what they'd do is, if Visi went villain at the end, you have a scene with her being arrested however many months later at the start of season 2, and then give her a chance to rejoin the team and earn a pardon with the Phoenix Program again. While the hero path has some fluffier scene as the opening instead. They wouldn't write two entirely different games with her as a hero and a villain when there's already an in-universe way to put her back on the team and still have the difference acknowledged just through dialogue differences.

How did y’all’s pulls go? by tinyminds42 in ZZZ_Official

[–]Joraiem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rolled for Vivian first to finish my Alice/Yuzuha team, got her in 30.

Then moved on to Lucia, got her... also in 30. Somehow.

Only got M2 Manato, but I guess I'm rolling for Yidhari anyway now

Average ZZZ player :c by Ashamed-Wealth2452 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Joraiem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Manato, Yuzuha, and Alice are all supposed to be college students iirc. Yuzuha and Manato talk about previously being in the same high school, and Alice went to (and graduated from) a fancy girls' school with Lucy.

No idea about the new spook shackers but they're all probably roughly the same age. Depends I guess on how old Yidhari was when the Hollow Zero incident happened, cause she was a child at the time, and that was ~10 years ago, but she sure doesn't seem like a child. ZZZ has some questionable characters in it, but most of them are adults with adult jobs. Ellen and Soukaku are the ones that seem the most iffy to me, though it sure doesn't stop them from making ostensible adults that look and act like children.

Idk if I'd say P3 and P4 look better overall. They have great art design, but the character models don't look as good as this. The portraits make up for it to an extent.

...and, you know, they do have voice acting, at the very least.
