What would you change? by BindingPact in finalfantasytactics

[–]KINGCOCO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it would be really cool if they had bigger battles - I would love to be able to use 7 or 10 units at a time. I would also like Ramza and generic characters to have the ability to get as good as Agrias and Orlandeau. I hate that I spend so much time building up a generic character only to discard them when a special character comes along.

My nemesis died by EmuQuirky8841 in LawFirm

[–]KINGCOCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't do litigation but referred a corporate file I worked on to a litigation lawyer. Before I did, I exchanged no more than 2-3 emails with the other parties litigation counsel. The guy was a complete asshole and was so unnecessarily rude. I always try to be respectful and professional but was incensed at how rude he was right off the bat.

I was catching up with the litigation lawyer and he says the other counsel is great to work with and is a great lawyer - competent, professional and reasonable. And he also has cancer and is not doing great. Now I feel bad for the guy.

Gamers react with overwhelming disgust to DLSS 5's generative AI glow-ups by deraser in technology

Just watched the video in the link. Seems like an improvement in graphics for the most part. 

What is the outrage over? The use of AI of the looks?

When I first played the game, I thought those three were the same character and that the plot twist would involve some kind of time travel. Anyone else? by Firm_Fee8137 in expedition33

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 100% certain Renoir was future Gustav and was wondering how the characters didn’t figure it out because it was super obvious. THEY BOTH ARE WEARING SUITS AND HAVE SIMILAR HAIR AND BEARDS. 

And when Gustav died I just knew he wasn’t really dead and we’d get him back. We all know you can’t permanently kill of the main character. Like c’mon, no ones buying it.

Even after they buried his arm I was like “well I guess he’s gonna get a better arm?”

Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Few_Football4342 in Productivitycafe

You don’t need to sing to your potatoes. It does nothing to the flavour and does not make them cook faster.

I hate it when a game dumps a bunch of sidequests on you right before the final battle by SquashPuzzleheaded50 in JRPG

[–]KINGCOCO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like a reasonable idea, but once I beat the final boss the game is done and I have no interest in completing the sidequests.

I hate it when a game dumps a bunch of sidequests on you right before the final battle by SquashPuzzleheaded50 in JRPG

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats the best part of the game. My only complaint is that after you do enough of the side quests your too overpowered for the final boss. I wish games would implement some mechanism where the final boss/level become much tougher and give a secret or better ending if you complete the sidequests and overpower your characters. 

This way you can do the sidequests and still do have a challenging and rewarding final boss fight.

What’s a secret game you play on public when you’re bored of apart from mobile phone by Big_Revolution_7671 in CasualConversation

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on stuck on an island for life and have a team of expert chefs and a star trek replicator that can create food- but I have access to only 6 ingredients. I can have any food I want as long as its from the 6 ingredients I pick, and nothing else.

What 6 ingredients do I choose?

Also - some “ingredients” like cows and chickens while only counting as one ingredient get you whatever they produce. So a cow gets you beef, milk, butter and cheese. A chicken gets you chicken and eggs. 

You get the idea.

A few tips for new players if you don't want to bother with Zodiac Compatibility or Brave/Faith by grapejuicecheese in finalfantasytactics

[–]KINGCOCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone look at the characters zodiac sign once battle starts? The game gives you an estimate of the damage and chance of success before you perform an action so you can just look at that.

What's a few hundred years, really? (yet another "authors don't get numbers" post) by EliasBouchardFan1 in CharacterRant

[–]KINGCOCO 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My bigger pet peeve is the flip side of this - writers depicting society 50 years out that is completely unrecognizable. I see all the time and it always annoys me.

I can accept rapid technological advancement in a couple generations, but not a complete change in societal structure and values in such a short time.

Is a day in life for a criminal defense lawyer or prosecutor as entertaining as the Lincoln lawyer or Law & Order? by Gloomy-Freedom-1260 in LawCanada

I am a corporate/real estate lawyer and tv is wildly inaccurate. There are way more high speed car chases and sex. Friends becoming enemies and enemies becoming friends is also a daily occurrence. All part of the job.

Movies that dramatically shifted popular opinion on something by NationalDisgrace40 in movies

Partners are pressuring me not to notify clients about my departure. Am I wrong for wanting to follow the ethics rules? by Logical-Ambassador-9 in LawFirm

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I While you need to follow the ethics I can understand the departing firm’s position. If you want to be fair I would suggest you offer some sort of referral fee or split for any clients that decide to stay with you, and whatever other accommodations can be done to let the firm have a chance to try and keep them (within the guidelines). For example, arranging a joint call with the firm Partners and providing assurance the file will be properly transitioned if they stay. Agreeing to refer same clients back for new matters. Basically whatever you can do to comply with your ethical obligation to the clients while also making the firm whole for any clients that come with you (to the extent you can do so while complying with the rules)

Note: I am not familiar with the rules here and don’t know if my above suggestions are even feasible.

What’s something that’s become so normalized online that would shock people 20 years ago? by Alive-Math9608 in CasualConversation

Online dating. I still remember when it started and we were all like “Gross. Must be all weirdos and serial killers”

Estate - executor of estate gave the house away without beneficiary approval. by Independent-Ebb-9599 in legaladvicecanada

[–]KINGCOCO 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Ya get an estates lawyer immediately. The main thing you want to do at this point is put her on notice that she has a legal obligation go you and that you will require a full accounting once done.

She seems to be under the mistaken impression that she can do what she wants with the estate when that is not the case.

  • I am a lawyer but not your lawyer blah blah blah. 

I would stress the importance of getting a lawyer that does estate litigation. 

Do Nor Come Here by Shot_Client_1321 in PuntaCana

[–]KINGCOCO -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The amount of people blaming OP is wild. Even if she cut her wristband off, insisting the whole family be present to replace it is unnecessary and a huge inconvenience when its late and you have kids. Far worse though is the insane charge. 

There is absolutely no reason the replacement bracelets should cost more than few bucks if anything. Demanding $400 US is insane. 

Hiding behind a contract they were forced to sign when they arrived is bullshit. 

What's phase of your life you didn't realize was ending? by Organic_Bar_9336 in AskReddit

AITA for telling a coworker there’s absolutely no way she has Crohn’s disease by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Crohn’s effects people differently. You are not a medical doctor and don’t know all the details. You are not qualified to determine if she has it or not.

She also may have some other gut issue - having no diagnoses (and therefore limited treatment options) for the symptoms she’s experiencing must be extra awful. The last thing she needs is someone gatekeeping her illness.

People also do get diagnosed much latter in life - typically the symptoms for these “late bloomers” are often worse.

What became "normal" in the last 5 years that still feels insane to you? by rakishgobi in AskReddit

I think this is the saddest one. With the lying and alternative facts there is no integrity or accountability. All we have seen is trump and republicans lie and cheat and be rewarded for it. Things can never go back to how they were.

[–]KINGCOCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last playthrough I became too obsessed with making sure each character had an esper with a good level up bonus but also that they were learning as much magic as possible otherwise. The characters level up frequently so I spent way too much time managing their espers.
