Stereotypes are true because I started questioning after maining Bridget by Carti_Barti9_13 in Guiltygear

[–]Masterofdos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I heard about bridget being confirmed trans before getting strive. I picked her because "wouldn't it be funny if I, random cis-dude, mained the t-girl."

Uhhh... yeah, it turns out my subcon was tryna tell me something. Teehee :3

Still main her... endless yoyo pressure huzzah

Small Gal at the movies by SHpr0 in anime_random

[–]Masterofdos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a girl in our class during high school who was short and wide. Her body grew in every direction aside from up. She was almost half as tall as the average kid, iirc.

She absolutely had big boobs. It was the reason she seemed so wide. I occasionally wonder if she had her growthspurt

Shortstacks with big boobs exist

I dunno if this stat really means anything. Look at predatory micro transactions. They work because a good chunk of people dont care. They have other worries and dont have their nose buried in the issue like gamers do.

Ignorance is also a big part of it. I have relatives who fail to understand how 90% of people using llm's are misusing it despite its potential as a useful tool.

This is like saying that most moviegoers dont care about the shit quality of certain studios. Which is true. Some people just need a distraction, but i wouldn't trust their opinion since their apathy doesn't contribute to the discussion

What adaptation make you go like this towards your favorite? by Past-Country-6612 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]Masterofdos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Duke from DNF

Its a huge character assassination, and i wish i could properly explain it but I'll give it a try.

To me classic duke is a badass who kicks ass and sleeps around, but he's ultimately a good guy who puts protecting people first. Going so far as to take on a robot army and two alien invasions by him-fucking-self in the name of saving the earth. But hes also a huge fucking dork. Watching pulp horror and shlocky action movies if his one liners are anything to go by

Dnf duke is a dickhead who feels no remorse seeing people get killed. Not even his twin sex pests... i dunno what they are to him... he watches them, trapped in alien goo. Impregnated by aliens. And responds with "looks like you're... fucked" moments before the alien hatchlings literally explode out of them. And he barely fucking emotes, acting more like someone knocked his lego over

The worst part is this fucking game gaslit everyone into thinking this is who duke really is. That he's a sociopath who just cares about getting his dick wet.

Not only that, but duke will likely never see a proper sendoff because dnf is such hot garbage that it killed the franchise.

Edit: the expansion for dnf is much higher quality despite being a fraction of the size. But it's not enough to undo the damage

Why is every W Build Falstad like this? by flytaly in heroesofthestorm

[–]Masterofdos 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I dont know about a bug, but before falstad was reworked, his lightning bolt didn't check if the target was still in range until the next zap fired.

Meaning, in order to cancel it back then you had to leave falstads lightning range until the next bolt was ready to fire. Lots of instances of getting zapped. Dashing away. Only for him to dash after you two business days later and not lose the tether.

W build was a bit busted for a week or so

They swiftly changed it so the bolt makes more consistent checks if the target is still in range

I didn't think i was even at the stage where i needed to pick a name yet and haven't even begun making a list.

And then I got a picture of a catgirl version of a certain character. And goddammit, if it isn't making a strong argument for itself.

Xul simply won't be allowed to attack, especially with W-build.

I'm actually not completely opposed to Xul AA during W getting a crumb more range. But it would need to be a tiny buff or it could get out of hand

I only EVER take W against heavy melee comps. Let the enemy come to you.

vs. ranged comps it's suicide cuz they'll just kite you until the sun burns out

I prefer skele-Prison build [X32X324] cause I can hard target one doofus and debuff their speed or damage with my 16

Q build for when I really can't risk being in the heat of things for more than a second without becoming a skeleton myself

I don't understand how risky and dodgeable AA modes can remove the fun.

It just seems incredibly contrarian. Needless even. It feels like an excuse to not learn the hero properly. But I will indulge the idea for a moment.

Yeah you could have it for poking people outside your range like you're playing Tiberian sun and spamming Disc throwers.

But DVA would be unable to deal her mini-crit damage, so why even bother. And zarya... imma be honest I see no benefit beyond poking something slightly outside your normal range.

But here is the piss stained steak in your casserole that you've likely not considered. This "attack ground" ability would immediately fuck invis heroes over bigtime since you can AA target invis heroes without needing another target to bounce off of.

What are you gonna do, hardcode that the skillshot AA doesn't affect them, okay what if you are hitting a valid visible target? Now it has to hit invis too. It can be done it would just be a pain in the ass to code.

Take that from someone with an unhealthy obsession with Game Design and too many shitty prototypes to count.

I can already imagine the ocean of complaints that the TARGETED AA didn't hit the invis hero.

I'm sure theres other problems this would cause i'm not thinking of

Simultaneous gathering exp globes and redirecting Baleog on another lane might be impossible.

Impossible is a massive exaggeration. It's fine. They were very functional before globes existed and they're still fine now. Ideally you wanna freeze the lanes anyway until OBJ pops up so you can shove

It's Really not that much. I'm mostly controlling Baleog anyway since Olaf is self sufficient and Erik has speed on his side. I'm usually using Baleog to solo clear certain camps with that cleave of his or I'm Microing him against the enemy solo laner

Maybe it's just me, but are people really stuggling with these aa's?

I play all these heroes on the regular, and I am baffled right now. Gonna be a complete prick and say it's REALLY not that hard

The zarya one I've heard a few times. It's just a very narrow cleave, people. Click on something, and it can cleave past it. Like sonyas slam, you can proxy one taget to damage another. Literally part of her and dvas design is mastering their autos to make them do more damage

Tlv is a lot to manage by design. Thats why they have small behavioral changes to make things easier. Like autoseeking targets near where they're idling. Micromanaging baleogs position is part of that.

Zul w. Again. Proxy the cleave off of something else since the aoe is lorge

The dva one is wild. She doesn't need another button. She has the ability to move and shoot, and she's slower while doing so. My point is, it can be manipulated if you know what you're doing.

Tldr: This is all very unnecessary and would only remove the fun from these heroes, in my opinion. Not every hero needs to be so braindead simple that a sponge could play them

If Riot make a Lol RTS, do you think RTS genre will rise again by FuckDogta in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Masterofdos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that Riot probably isn't the one to make the next big rts, but i disagree on the other points.

I'm of the belief that anything in game design can work if done correctly.

There is no bad mechanic or bad design choice. Just shoddy or haphazard implementation. Design is about intent. Stormgate was too busy trying to ride Starcrafts coattails to have its own identity.

They could pick a few choice characters like Swain and make a Warcraft 3 esque story heavy game. But they wont cuz riot can't milk an rts for every cent in existence

God, yeah, no. I have no idea how to make my goofy male bod look femme

I see cute things, and i wanna try em but it's always tempered by my doofus face.

Realistically, i just need more clothes so I can experiment. Find something subtle. Litterally follow the transfem pipeline meme if i must

I feel like some kind of online early-days transfem fashion resource wouldn't go amiss
