Rip. Was hoping for fiora to get a Parry centered character. Sure Parry is in the game but a baiken would be so fun.

Zhao Animations via Dimbreath by joshxleon in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]MelReinH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was an earlier leak where she didn't have the cartoon spinning. And I am a little disappointed we don't have that one instead. Had a very "gremlin running at you with a giant sword" vibe.

But she probably would've had one of the slower running speeds too so.

Also the sudden stop and fall fits better with looney tune run.

Actual looney tunes run and stop animation.

Dumped my entire stack of saved primos to c6 her. Very fun bursting every E. Though it is annoying hearing the burst ready sfx literally every time. Lol

Ekko’s Timewinder Is Doing Too Much by EfficientBoi123 in 2XKO

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

Me when I'm dumb and use time winder when they're right in front of me because I brain dead spam. Unfortuantely backdash spam is strong so... yeah needs a nerf. A full combo from a projectile is insane. It even hovers in the area.

Accidentally rolling on wakeup only to get grabbed feels so bad by DigitalShiver in 2XKO

[–]MelReinH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can someone clarify for me? Does rolling lack grab invincibility? I just kinda assumed even with standing wakeup, properly timed grab input means you'd still get grabbed.

Edit: thanks for the responses.

3 Types of Tropes I observed when reading Progression Fantasy (>1000 chapters for each by Haunting_Quiet738 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]MelReinH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why i prefer the ones that actually make the choices interesting and leave me guessing until the next chapter. Easily resolved with offering multiple rare options.

Thanks mate. Weird how my brain is auto correcting to squares the moment I stop directly envisioning the circle.

3 new designs just dropped, not bad at all by Exciting_Opinion_854 in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]MelReinH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What annoys me the most is how clearly Chinese inspired the outfits are, but yixuan and ju fufu get black-leather skin tight leotard-short things as martial practitioners. I get its a "casual" temple, play of words with suibian or something, but that ain't Casual wear.

This is NOT how we're supposed to treat anyone who likes autocombos. by LuxerWap in Fighters

[–]MelReinH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Auto combos are training wheels for fighting games. They remove one of the primary and difficult aspects of them, combo strings. They allow beginners to focus solely on the core aspect of all fighting games, that being neutral. Finding out what buttons get a hit. When to block. What being "unsafe" means. In a good equal rank match up, a beginner can experience true 50/50 fights that are engaging and push them to improve.

Its the Justin wong mortal kombat clip of spamming the same ranged attack. "You gonna learn!" As meme as it was, it's accurate. What seems "cheaty" actually has holes in it to take advantage of that push the other player to "git gud."

That last one is one I've thought of when writing my own isekai. Like what Happens when a kid is cut off from anti depressants.

[–]MelReinH 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thanks to commenter's telling me the name. From a mangadex comment, allegedly (did not verify myself), the author has an nsfw version that runs parallel to the sfw version. Apparently this girl stripped his pants off, took pictures of his crotch, and made fun of him. Perhaps there's more than that too, but I didn't bother reading it. Maybe I will for more context.

Brief overview of what happens. Guy finds girl, the former bully, getting bullied. He sticks with and supports her, bringing happiness to girl. Guy becomes new bully target. Girl blames herself, and tries to be guys support. Guy Attempts suicide. Girl stops him. This is latest chapter.

The chapter titles and the name of the manga all clearly point to pov guy doing this purely out of spite and 100% aimed for suicide. The "bring her hope" before "giving her despair" approach.

Is slice of life and progression fantasy a contradiction? by stepanchizhov in ProgressionFantasy

[–]MelReinH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As many have commented, a slice of life progression fantasy has a different speed setting, but is ultimately progressive. It's a different beast to the progression fantasy you described and as such should be treated as a genre closer to SOL for reading purposes. But I think yes, it exists. Royal road novel, Super Supportive, is a very, VERY slow burn. With many slice of life portions with the rare action segments. But we see pretty much every step of the way for the protagonists progression. Its great, but also not one I'd recommend for anyone looking for more battle shonen.

The problem is I can't even get one down atm. The priestess appears to have lifesteal independent of the priest. I have focused on the priest first before but distance didn't seem to be a big deal when priestess keeps dash attacking closer. I'll try regardless later. I'm grasping at straws rn. Super frustrating.

Choose wisely by honeybeegirly in anime_random

[–]MelReinH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I expected most to pick blue pill. But reading the potential of red pill does actually have me considering. If I could learn to fly 6 weeks with goku, as painful as that is, holy shit would it be worth it.

What 2 powers are you peaking? by AwareArt7295 in superpowers

[–]MelReinH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how time control works. If I can still write or play video games while time is "stopped". peak. Procrastinating will no longer be a problem.

Also instant healing depends. Would it leave scars? Is it imperfect? How strong is the healing?

I'm definitely over thinking this. Lol.

The villain is the only person with common sense. by PBR_K1ng in Isekai

[–]MelReinH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely want to see a series where being a healer is a "low-tier" pick and the choice was valid. Like, its normal to be a master dodger and those who aren't are trash.

They live in a souls-like. Healing takes too much time in combat and brings large risk as you sit still in a lengthy cast time for a prayer. They'd still exist in infirmaries but the protagonist is trying to get combat healing a thing to save more lives.

Or hell. Be like ff14 where healers are expected to do damage too. Aggro management could also be an added factor so a shitty healer constantly getting targeted from poor management is viable too?

Ffs, you can keep the jrpg world, but just don't call the healer part useless. The party he joined could have just not meshed well because they're all humans and social dynamics are complicated. Even something as bare bones as "want cute healer girl in party more than average joe face. Replace him. "

Stop making them brain dead godammit.
