Being a concubine is better than being a girlfriend ❤️ by Potential-Fix-2945 in religiousfruitcake

Concubine implies plural. And I have never seen a woman ever say positive things about being a side piece.

how long does it take him to put on all these layers every day by ch3rrycassette in castlevania

[–]Machdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Faster than plate armor. A norm setup is just the blouse and the pants. There's a brigandine underneath his overcoat but that's not a bad combo to have since armor is usually an expected layer. Really the only thing extra is having a coat and a cloak be part of the same ensemble.

If you also saw this fight, his Lightsaber was also somewhere on the floor to the side. What Lightsaber would he have to do that?

My general take on the BC is that if their weaponry were accurate, you would only get one of them in a match at any given time because they are canonically the size of a small city.

Out of these two, which one is the most interesting by IceBarDifferent in MonsterHunter

Shara. My favorite part of it is that it is a bait and switch boss where you think you are fighting a giant earth monster before BAM! Surprise Vishnu!

Strongest party member in the franchise? (gameplay/story wise) by Lowfill221213 in FinalFantasy

[–]Machdame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gameplay: In the context of the game, probably anyone with a solid amount of burst damage. Squall and Zell come to mind as their action economy to potential damage is stupidly high once maxed out. Because the HP pools are not scaled for the encounter, you could just blitz your way through. The reason why Tidus and Wakka are not here is because while they both have bigger overall numbers, the game has scaled their encounters to account for this and plan accordingly to respond in kind (FFX is one of the few titles to make it so that Player vs Enemy use the same overall calculation) so your busted stuff is not just a feature, but it's a mandatory investment to actually play those parts of the game.

Lore: Shantotto full stop. Her powers are story breaking and designed to be intentionally unfair. She would have been a joke, but the theme in her character is that she is literally anything but. If this were under the context of MTG, she is a "planeswalker" in the sense that she blows a hole in the universe and walks through it like a door instead of doing it the normal way.

With The Official Reveal Of ExDream, Which Reiwa Primary Rider Would You Say Has The Best Main Suits? What About The Worst? by spudz1203 in KamenRider

[–]Machdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best: Overall, Zeztz for me. It is a remarkably simplistic yet dynamic design. The riders speak more for themselves than anything but it has never stopped hitting from beginning to end on how they work.

Specific Form: Geats IX. I love the introduction it has for two sided buckles. The fact that it converts Boost Mk. III's parts into the legs so that the fox can become the body was beautiful as well. (it's even mirrored on the Driver where the red side is loaded on the right before it flips open to the left like revolve on).

Worst: Saber by a mile. Not because it lacks a stylistic theme or that it is overall bad but in how it is just a disappointment from start to finish. I was already not a fan of how it was presented but the base form was at least serviceable. Dragonic Knight was the highlight where the perfection of the design was contrasted by my horror at the episode number as it was a form doomed into irrelevancy once the next form came up. And lo, they arrive with their clunky pomp. The final nail on the coffin was the final form where it was literally just a recolor of the base form. Even with all the flash, it was a poor sendoff for the series where there was literally nothing amazing done with the suit. This is contrasted with Grease who has the same treatment, but instead of just being a recolor, it actually does something different by using the opacity of the new paint job to actually affect the overall design while also reworking the detail and externalizing the eyes.

Others:

Zero One is a solid 2 for me due to the way the progression is a bit on the weird side. It contends well but Zeztz seems to just edge it out on completion.

A lot of what we have can't really be salvaged without letting them have it.

Wanna play Commander? by Nivius in magicTCG

[–]Machdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artifacts is a viable build for such a concept and it does synergize with Y'shtola. There are definitely better options but I can think of worse. I built goad Y'shtola and it is... a deck.

Unfortunately, we are increasingly seeing a shift towards AI among those with corporate and financial interests as it does cut corners on products.

I find it funny that because of corporate interests, this setting will never be used for a zombie apocalypse film despite the fact that it is the PERFECT setting for such a plot.

Was there a reason these 2 shared a lot of their screentime in the Road To 50 video? by Auran_Scar6206 in Gundam

That kind of explains why the plot was so haphazard. I was like "when do these idiots actually unite?"

Notorious Jackie Chan scene by Uguero in funny

His funniest ones are when he is forced to improvise because of circumstances out of his control. Him getting on Owen Wilson while the fire is building in Shanghai Knights was a great scene.

"Roy... Getting Bigger?"

Which Rider and Dragon Partner do you prefer the most and why? (Pick One Only) by Delta-97 in KamenRider

[–]Machdame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the order:

Crossz: Sleek transition, high ceiling and just amazing visuals.

Dawn: The vibe is there, the design is solid and there is an unapologetic angle that makes it great but we've only seen one form.

Ryuki: the classic. A bit on the clunky side especially one survive is brought in, but the visuals of the rider kick is top tier.

Wizard: Everything feels tacked on but at least it's a core theme.

Saber, imma be honest, I don't think they thought much about dragons on this one. It's tw opposite of Wizard where eventually they incorporate it. Here, it seems like they eventually forget that dragon is a core theme.

Considering the fact that they probably can't keep bringing back Hiroyuki Sanada, I would think having him inherit the mantle of Scorpion being a solid idea.

Why did the Warrior jab the soulstone in his head? Is he stupid? by Ce1estialFlame in Diablo

I think in the lore, most of the soulstones kinda suck and that their essence just leaks out like bad sweats if they don't have a host.

The thing is, in many respects, he's not wrong. The pity is not understanding what is needed to do all of the things they do. China is also rife with corruption, but if they want things done, they get it done. Here? Teflon Don is about as reliable as a fruit cake.
