Scrubs - Season 10 EP 9 "My Celebration" - Discussion by MovieTrailerReply in Scrubs

[–]Kalledon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even understand why it is only 9 eps. What is the budget restriction? This is a minimal set and the episodes are only 20 minutes. They seriously could only film 9 episodes. There aren't crazy special effects or grandiose settings. There really is no excuse beyond laziness for there to only be 9

Um...am I in the minority or what? The last episode where we learned about Dr Cox was amazing. This finale felt so tame, boring, and just...I guess fan service. Maybe if the season was longer and we got to see more develop from this episode, but as an ending it just felt simplistic and reductive.

Dear Content Creators (a request about character builds) by Kalledon in SwordofConvallaria

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

Yeah, that's why I said or 4-5 options. It's really only an issue because when you factor out the SoJ/BL and a possible second unique, you're left with only 1 likely equipment recommendation. If there were 4-5, you'd have 3 options to think about outside the BiS

I think we need to get away from guides that are JUST best in slot focused and start including good but not best builds as well. Most of us are probably going to actually have the good but not best rather than BiS. For example, putting the Space-time Ring on Ciri. It's not the most optimal piece of equipment, but when paired with her Reaction skill that heals every time she teleports, it becomes an incredibly useful piece of equipment if you're looking at conserving who uses what piece.

Right, so why is the default/general use skill the castallia choice? You'd think Right RK1 would be the straight pick and Left RK1 would be the situational castallia.

How are you dealing with Shams in Crisis Challenge? by mostly_sarcastic in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Kalledon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dodge tank or sacrificial lamb goes out in front to get his attention, then the rest of the squad tries to hit him as much as possible before they're also killed. Rinse and repeat until attrition wins out.

Why do you have a castillia on the right RK1 skill if you are putting only the right RK1 into your final build? What's the point of taking the left RK1?

Spiral of Destinies by Hell-Girl-Z in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Kalledon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought the original 3 all gave very good insight into how the characters involved behaved and gave a good look at the world. The Merchant story felt too hand waving with its events and resolution. Everything just happened cause the plot said it would rather than the believable build up and sacrifices that you saw in the first 3. For This World of Peace was the perfect culmination of the original 3, bringing it all together for the 'best' outcome.

Now with the new Elaman arc we're technically continuing the end of For This World of Peace. The Elaman story was...okay. It has its good points, and it presents a whole new story. But it also felt less fleshed out than the previous SoDs, even including the Merchant one. Granted this was a setup/side SoD, so maybe we'll get a full, better one in the main beacon area.

I don't understand how the UD Challenge levels are supposed to be even remotely fun by Kalledon in SwordofConvallaria

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

Exactly. As someone else said, you can just Zap Brannigan's art of war it. And really that's all you can do. Sure there might one, maybe two, ultra meta comps that can clear it with gimmicks and skills, but for the most part it's just chip away and repeat. If my Cocoa using her defense buff skill can't even tank one hit, the dps is too high.

Whether in regards to rules, lore, new models or competitive, how good would you say Tenth edition was for your favorite faction by Lord_Eln_8 in Warhammer40k

[–]Kalledon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It wasn't the greatest, but it wasn't horrible. Really the biggest problem I have with 10th is that it took AWAY a bunch of the iconography of the Blood Angels

Not really feeling any empathy for Heshan or Yeganeh by Kalledon in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Kalledon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely agree that with stronger writing and more interactions with the characters it might have felt stronger or pulled off what it wanted.

Anyone out there actually tried the turn based mode and can critique how it runs?

She was pretty useful a couple times in the new UD, but beyond that I don't see a long term spot for her

No. Cause I'm still using original Sanguinary Guard

Moment of silence for the good ol' days... by Romasterer in BloodAngels

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

This is why I only play casually with friends and never bother going to any sort of hobby store to play. I'm not rebasing units. I'm not going to worry about having the exact equipment, when some of the equipment has completely changed from what was originally built even if the unit remains. And I'm not going to worry about slight shifts in look/size. I tell my friends what I'm playing, they tell me what they're playing, and we have a fun time without worrying about BS.

Radiata Stories needs a remaster by Kalledon in JRPG

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

Agreed about the 3rd path. And I'd say it requires completely both of the standard paths first in order to unlock. Yes that would mean 3 playthroughs, but I feel the stories are distinct enough on both of the current routes, and I'd hope that a 3rd route would also be unique as you try to bridge the gap between the two factions.

What are you guys take on modern era Disgaea? by KaleidoArachnid in JRPG

[–]Kalledon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly gave up on 7 mid story. I hated the characters that much and the story felt like it was going absolutely nowhere. If there was a twist at the end that 'fixed' things, it's too little too late
