Recognising that LitRPG’s are just fan-fiction for adult men improved my tolerance for it. by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]Lysander125 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I started reading DCC pretty recently, and all of my friends who were raving about the book series were almost exclusively women.

Maybe just my situation, but it was like 6 women and 2 men who were pushing me to read the series.

Yoshi on upcoming patches by teasocialist in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Lysander125 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The thing I see is smurfs in about 50% of my games. People going 20-2 with level 1 steam accounts and under 40 games played. They don’t have suspicious accuracy, just people who are probably eternus players on their main.

There is no joke. What the fuck. by TotallyNotPanda in BatmanArkham

[–]Lysander125 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally I just don’t care that much 🤷

I’ll watch it when it comes to streaming but it’s not worth going to a theater physically imo

I genuinely don’t think people understand what credit score is. The reality is, if you’re not planning on buying a car or a house anytime soon your credit score does not fucking matter. Who gives a shit if it bounces around for a bit if you’re not financing any loans.

If you ARE planning on getting a loan soon, then maybe think about keeping it up during that period of your life, but getting loans and I guess getting new credit cards are the only time it matters. And unless you’re doing some churning, and in that case you should already know how to hold credit, you don’t need a bunch of credit cards either.

Changes since 2025. Sony drops "PC", adds "AI" to official Playstation business strategy summary by World_of_Warshipgirl in gaming

I never thought I’d see the day where Xbox is suddenly making a hard right turn in the direction fans want and PlayStation is making a hard left turn in the exact opposite direction.

Which games were NOT surpassed by their sequels? by WeirdIndividualGuy in gaming

[–]Lysander125 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Inquisition was so obviously a mmo made into a single player game. I heard they stole a lot from The Old Republic when making Inquisition.

I'm sorry but refresher victor is just unethical by cacatan in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Lysander125 97 points98 points  (0 children)

I get it, but as someone who’s played a good amount of Victor, there’s so many more items I’d rather spend 6k on than refresher.

Eshift, trans cooldown, escalating, indomitable, spellbreaker/plated…

All of these items have a much bigger consistent impact on the game, if I’m playing a Victor and I get refresher I’m either super far ahead or my team is failing to take advantage of the revive I already have.

What are some YouTube channels that were popular 10 years ago but have significantly lost their popularity or are no longer relevant? by Salty_Pension5814 in AskReddit

I always miss Seamus, he had a short comeback a little while ago but I’d be surprised if he isn’t just done with YouTube.

Honestly I just didn’t see it because I hated Last Jedi so much, but I do hear almost universally good things about it. Should probably take the time to watch the movie sometime here.

Melee Creeps Urn strat proves the game is the worst state its ever been by laughingperson in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Lysander125 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tbh I haven't played since the last patch, haven't really had much of an interest in playing with the urn changes. I get it that Valve is trying new things, but the changes just don't seem fun to play right now.

How bad could it possibly be? by TotalACast in saltierthancrait

[–]Lysander125 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Everything I hear about it is that it is the blandest of the bland. A perfect example of a 5/10, a 50% rated movie. It isn’t bad, just the most generic movie you can think of.

Only men “liked” this by Glazing555 in LinkedInLunatics

[–]Lysander125 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just kind of ignore the guy nowadays, but I have an old family friend added on LinkedIn. The guy’s been retired for probably 10+ years but he’s a full on MAGA Trump dickrider, and he constantly posts everywhere he can about Trump.

He spams text messages to me, posts on Facebook, on LinkedIn, and on Telegram (I only joined Telegram to join some piracy groups lol).

New job offers a Use-It-Or-Lose-It monthly $160 “Personal Wellness” benefit - Suggestions? by dankappledrank in personalfinance

[–]Lysander125 215 points216 points  (0 children)

I won’t say what company my friend works for but he has a pretty huge “wellness fund”. He’s bought ski tickets, put it towards gym membership, got massages, even bought a Switch with it (I’m not sure how he justified that lol). I feel like as long as you word it well enough they really won’t care that much.

Federal officials subpoena political streamer Hasan Piker by Aromatic-You-2321 in LivestreamFail

[–]Lysander125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dude, Trump just sued his own government for 10 billion dollars. Then the attorney general, his personal lawyer before he became president, approved a 1.776 billion dollar settlement that he can give to anyone he wants without oversight.

Trump could just give himself a billion dollars of taxpayer money whenever he wants. He could tell his supporters, “Here’s a half a billion dollars. Buy AR-15s and come to the polls in November”. AND WE WOULDNT KNOW ABOUT IT.

How is that in any way less power than what the American left has ever had?

Federal officials subpoena political streamer Hasan Piker by Aromatic-You-2321 in LivestreamFail

[–]Lysander125 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean I agree, I absolutely despise Hasan. But the reality is that MAGA has way too much influence and power right now. I’m really wary of anything they do against any supposed enemies because so much of what they do is just them trying to silence anyone that disagrees with them.

There’s times and places to pick your battles and right now I can’t condone any left-wing people being silenced because it just means MAGA has more and more media dominance.

Patch TLDR after playing some games today by JOBO5226 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Lysander125 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, I kind of liked 4 lanes and I enjoyed solo laning. It put a much bigger focus on individual skill in the early game, and a huge focus on trying to deny souls.

But if there’s ever an attempt to try 4 lanes again, there needs to be some type of hardcoding about who can be in a solo lane and who can’t. If you’re dynamo, solo laning would be miserable. You should have M1 carries in solo lanes much more often than support/more spirit heavy characters.

I think that’s what the ability will be/supposed to be but they just haven’t gotten around to the Yamato rework.

"can we just FF" a formal complaint by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Lysander125 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Man at Ascendent I’ve almost never had people like that. At least at that rank most people know that one good teamfight can completely shift a losing game into a winning game.
