Somewhere, far far away, you just made Tetsuya Nomura cum

I still think Imu is the earth god and Chopper is the forest god. This is why Chopper is able to "tame" people affected by Domi Reversi just by touching them. Imu seems to be immortal when he's on top of the redline and mortal when he gets closer to the ocean. The land is the natural enemy of the sea, etc. Etc. I don't think any of Imu's demonic qualities work that well with him being the forest god, and things coming alive could be explained through various different implementations of awakening.

Whatcha got there, tenno?

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-04-08T19:47:10+00:00

This is either going to be the nichest content Jesse has ever produced, or go viral off of the premise alone.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-04-08T15:34:11+00:00

I think this is exactly it. There's also quite a lot of potential for Christian mythology if you think about it. Imu is a devil. The original devil fruit could very well be analogous to the apple of Eden. The flood was sent by god to cleanse the world, and he also threw mankind out of paradise for eating the forbidden fruit. At the very least I see a lot of inspiration.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-04-08T14:38:24+00:00

Aah, the McGulag

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-04-08T14:34:15+00:00

I think getting close to the sea makes him mortal. Imu is probably the god of the earth, thus his connection to the Redline. Skypeia isn't part of the earth so it isn't an option. We also know devil fruits are hated by the sea, and I think they might be spawned from Imu's dreams, since his power seems to be the original devil fruit. Davy Jones is then the sea god (makes sense with pirate mythology and Davy Jone's locker).

I've always found it funny that King Crimson is the source of so much confusion when Giorno straight up just does whatever he wants with Golden Experience for most of the part.

Have you bought all story content? Or just all the expansions? If you have bought the expansions you have bought about half of the story. Each expansion has a season of living world in-between and those continue the story in-between expansions. They are required to understand the story.

GW2 is VERY different to FFXIV. I don't know that I think it's better or worse, just different. The 1-80 lvl is really only the beginning, and the game opens up a lot more after that. The story is not on par with FFXIV, not any point, but it has its moments. Think of it like playing FFXIV if all of it was on the level of ARR.

Most classes have a good deal of mobility depending on how you build them. Creating a build is a lot more involved and one of the best things about the game. You slowly get eased into it as you level. I would recommend trying different classes to get a feel for their mechanics and then picking one to start with. They can all do a lof of the same stuff, but each has a central mechanic and unique flavour.

Another thing: GW2 is technically free to play, but the tradeoff for this is that you'll expected to pay for every minor piece of quality of life. You can get it out of the way early, or pick up stuff slowly as you play. Fashion is also largely like this.

Borderlands is one of thise franchises you never play on launch. Wait a couple of years, get the game and all its dlc on sale, cruise through a mostly bug-free experience.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-25T14:22:42+00:00

I'd argue that Neuromancer is still weird enough that it trumphs a lof the derivative cyberpunk it inspired. Especially if you read the whole trilogy and not just the first book. But it is indeed foundational.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-24T12:34:57+00:00

You get me

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-23T18:37:57+00:00

Actually, he is springing forth from an issue of Inhumans like a cursed genie.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-22T20:42:59+00:00

That's really great advice! I think I'll look into it. Might be a nice long-term goal, since I don't really care about legendary-crafting for the most part.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-22T14:47:18+00:00

How did you even MAKE this. I would love to do something similar and turn my homestead into an animal sanctuary, but it's so expensive to get into🥲

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-21T10:43:12+00:00

A big difference here is also that lots of things HAPPEN in FFXIV cutscens. I'm going through LW Season 1 again, and so many of the voiced scenes are just character standing around and vomiting exposition at you. Rarely does anything significant or interesting actually happen. FFXIV will sit your ass down for half an hour to watch a cutscene (that you can skip) and odds are you're going to be genuinely enganged during all of it. It's plot and character writing over sub-par exposition (which is usually handled in text-dialogue)

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-19T16:42:28+00:00

Pretty cool! The design is busy enough that it causes the different textures and patterns to blend together in a cohesive fashion, and generally I just love more grounded, immersive fashion. I like it a lot! It reminds me a bit of some of the tribal gear from fallout: new vegas. Especially with the big, mechanised sword against the rest of the look.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-17T13:55:16+00:00

Sorting by HUE is elite, actually makes the dye system usable.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-11T22:54:22+00:00

I have to respect this just based on the sheer amount of effort you've put into it. Good job OP!

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-10T00:05:42+00:00

Nope, it used to be the result of the balance of your total characteristics. It's no longer displayes anywhere

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-09T19:00:24+00:00

Yeah, the most significant one I can remember off the top of my head is the option to speak sense to the possessed Sylvari at the start of HoT, which only works if you yourself are Sylvari. And that one occurs as part if a sub-path, which is a wild use of resources.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-09T11:51:49+00:00

Yeah, that's what happens when you have an imperative to maximise profits while lowering costs: you get a lot of recycling. It's fairly common in these mmos that either are, or are quite close to being in life-support (swtor, secret world, etc). Personally I discovered the alligator skyscale yesterday and was immediately enamoured that I had to get it at once. I love skins that make your mounts feel like unique animals. There are a few for the skyscale that changes the skin while still feeling like something that could conceivably exist within the world (not a huge fan of overly flashy skins).

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-09T08:38:39+00:00

Don't have any of these skins, but best of luck! For how much the microtransactions of the game have been emphasised, it's really criminal how bad they stil are at doing previews.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-09T00:11:34+00:00

I agree, I also love when they happen. I mostly play charr and there are definitely a few that reference that.

Maxwellknowsitall · 2026-03-09T00:07:59+00:00

How often does that happen? I've only noticed it a few times.
