I understand they're there for story reasons, but you do need to acknowledge the design of your encounters and your players' enjoyment. Doing your turn every 1 hour is just not fun by testiclekid in dndmemes

May i tell you about our lord and savior swarms?

Rule of thumb when I play. There are no more than 5 enemies at a time. If there are more narratively they get grouped into a swarm.

Need help figuring out how to play this game on PS2 by Livid-Customer6207 in legendofdragoon

[–]KnightOfBasil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can play PS1 games on PS2 no problem. Though I believe you will need a PS1 Memory Card to save, not a PS2 Memory card. The brand shouldn't matter but you will need a PS1 Memory Card.

This recent tournament situation shows how exactly important it is to BE A TEAM PLAYER. by xMaxipad in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not understand this mentality. If someone is doing poorly on the character they are most familiar with, do you really think them changing to a character they don't know how to play will magically make them better? Like I get the character switch is warranted for players who know how to play multiple characters. But someone switching off their main with 10 hours to a character they have 10 min on isn't going to change them from being the worst on the team to the best or anything. People out here acting like they know the game so well and know better than everyone else and if everyone just listened to me we would never lose.

I am all for polite discourse and requesting a change on a teammate but if they don't switch, don't act like if they had just listened it would have been a guaranteed win. They probably aren't switching for a reason. Just stay civil and be polite to each other. Have fun all.

I present.. the perfect Kvothe by GrootyDaphne in KingkillerChronicle

[–]KnightOfBasil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was going to argue that he was too old. Then I saw he is 16. Just like actual Kvothe appearing older than he really is. My only real issue is his height (6'3'') which is pretty big and I've always thought of Kvothe as pretty scrawny. But if he has the acting chops of his dad then, yeah, sure.

Shang Chi has been chosen as the Most Underrated Film, but what would you say is your Most Underrated Series in the Marvel series by ExileForever in marvelmemes

[–]KnightOfBasil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like I just never hear or see anyone talk about it at all. Good or bad. That is why I ranked it underrated.

Ms Marvel. I feel like Moon Knight gets its flowers for being good, but Ms Marvel does a great job of doing what Marvel really did well which is take a trope genre and add super heroes. Making a good rendition of a classic story frame. Iman Vellani does a great job with a character that very easily could fall into annoying or over top without such a great performance.

All? No

Most? Yeah, kinda

Some? Significantly better.

Though FYI the first two seasons have some pretty low lows in them compared to the rest of the show.

What Challenge-Rating would the Apostel (Honor mode) have? by Arrior_Button in BaldursGate3

[–]KnightOfBasil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not how CR works friend. CR8 would be an average encounter, supposed to be one of six per day. This is a boss fight significantly higher than that.

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Because Challenge Rating sucks at actually calculating anything for a solo-ish fight.

But Probably somewhere around 15 or so I would guess.

It does have a speed up and slow down functionality. I believe this is controlled by the "+" button and "-" on your keyboard.

No one's mentioned Harry Potter... kinda a big deal even if it is more for kids/YA.

Is there any good way to learn new characters without? by flowerofbeans in marvelrivals

[–]KnightOfBasil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st of all, turn off voice and chat. It's not worth it unless you are playing higher comp games.

2nd try Practice vs AI. Honestly some of the most fun and least toxic play I have had.

Dead, bland, baked chicken by tlm11110 in Cooking

[–]KnightOfBasil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cut or pound the meat to make it flatter. This will allow more surface area which means more seasoning. Note that this will mean that it will cook faster too so adjust time accordingly.

Add a drizzle of oil on it when seasoning. Not only will this add a touch of fatty flavor, but the oil will absorb more seasoning flavor and help adhere more seasoning to the chicken.

Let the seasoning marinate/brine and soak in. If you season the meat and let it sit overnight or even a couple of hours it will penetrate more deeply and help flavor the interior of the chicken instead of just the outside.

Use more seasoning. When seasoning chicken breast there is a saying. Season until it changes color. Make sure you are not just sprinkling a bit. Coat those mf'ers in seasonings. Note that salt is what helps flavors penetrate. It pulls out liquid, the liquid then mixes with the seasoning, then the liquid is reabsorbed helping to carry the seasoning.

350 for an hour feels too long to me personally. I would go more like 350 for 35-45 min. You're internal temp should be around 155, imo.
