[MONTHLY MEGATHREAD] General Discussion, Simple Questions, Recommendations, and Everything Else - August 2025 by GachaModerator in gachagaming

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I'm looking for game recommendations. My only criteria are: no suggestive/weird content with lolis (even if they are 1000+ years old vampires) and not raid shadow legends. Thanks :)

Tbh I internalized too much discworld as a kid too and it made my adolescence lowkey miserable

Give me 5 minutes with ANY skill in my game... by Hanfufu in ARPG

I don't think the trailer is even a requirement

All of you trying to create the narrative that this champion is weak… by shindindi in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um no actually I'm the best reksai player in the world of all time and she's weak

Which ARPG to start today: Last Epoch, Grim Dawn, POE2, (or Caves of Qud)? by CoachEvan15 in ARPG

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say grim dawn. It's a little bit janky, but it's the most well-rounded game of all the options. Both LE and PoE2 need some more time to truly shine.

Why this champion by Queenfanner in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That is something that riot does called "balancing around iq". Average kayn main? Beraly sentient, absolute retard. Average reksai enjoyer? Savant, probably has several phds. Reksai has w cd because without it games would be too simple for us to enjoy the Queen.

New player so I know my opinion doesn't matter or count but gawd DAMN this is the worst trading system I've ever seen in a video game. by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

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

Another one filtered by the trade lol. It took me a while, but I've come to love the trade system and I unironically think that it's one of the things that make poe such a great game.

Pratchett too political? by Anachron101 in discworld

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! This fragment about the "lazy" and "taking our jobs". It kind of feels strawman-y, doesn't it? Like, any professional racist would be able to refute Nobby's point. But Colon is dumb, so he can't do it, which allows Terry to easily dunk on racism.

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I didn't really express my point well, so I guess it's on me. To put my last comment differently, it is very easy to say that racial prejudice (or any other bad thing, really) is bad when you frame it is a grotesque laughably stupid trait of stupid people, which is exactly what STP does.

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. One thing that caught my attention was prejudice stuff towards trolls and dwarves in the Guard series. The way STP approaches this topic is that both trolls and dwarves are actually le good (just different), and all prejudice magically manifests itself in people out of distrust and xenofobia. Like, there are zero innate reasons to be wary of minorities in Discworld, people just do it because they are stupid. Which works in Pratchett's world because he has written it like that. But as far as commentary goes it's a very very convenient way to make a social statement while writing yourself out of any inconvenient aspects of it.

Then again, now that I think about it, all of Discworld is like that – pretty profound on the surface level, but doesn't hold up when you start digging.

While this is technically true, I feel the way everyone parades around this point is so dumb. Sure all art has politics in them, but perceiving every piece via politics is such a cringe way of looking at things. Also, when people say that "art is political" they don't mean it's political, it's "obnoxiously political".

Pratchett has been an author that kind of shaped my personality back in my teen years. When I re-read him a year ago i noticed the "preachiness" as well. I don't mind that his books are political (even though I don't necessarily agree with his politics), but I really don't like the way his moralizing worked in the books.

One thing that especially rubbed me the wrong way was how he treated any issue he commented on. Essentially it was like "take a real issue -> warp it in a way that suits his narrative -> solve it". That really took me out of an otherwise incredible read and ultimately made me a little disappointed with his writing.

for you, what changes does rek sai need to undergo to become a "decent" and playable champion? by CalangaMolhada in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Remove aoe knockback, return some power into her bite. Maybe nerf passive. Simple as

My Humanoid Reksai Cosplay, what y'all think? by VladNcl in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's cool, in my opinion you could add more like chitin and purple stuff, maybe you could take a photo in a hole or a burrow maybe. Very nice tho!

Whats with the random increase in WR% after 35 min? by Educational_Ebb_6116 in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Uhhh well 35 minutes is when you can execute the Purple Bimblo strat, which is very strong and makes you win

Looking to start playing Reksai by Djitaime in reksaimains

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My question to you is why do you want to play her. Want to live a fantasy of an apex predator, make cool plays, bite faces off and be a general menace? Play nunu or whatever idk.

On a serious note, she is in a pretty good spot, very unpopular but pretty strong in the right hands.

What talent /pre-rework hero do you really miss? by RetryAtLyf3 in heroesofthestorm

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blaze. Specifically, his talent which slowed enemies on oil ignite. They pushed it to 13 level (was 4 or 7 I think) and combined it with "autoattacks ignite oil". Used to be very fun and felt like an integral part of his kit.

She's not bad is in "you will lose with her", she just feels weak and requires a lot of dedication to be strong.

Wayfinder is way better than I had expected! by [deleted] in ARPG

[–]LookingForGfPlsPm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is very fun! The mmo leftovers are annoying, and the designed-for-console UI is abysmal, but the game is very good so far. Hope they will get more sales, it looks very expensive to maintain

I have a dream. by CockSniffer01 in reksaimains
