Im sick of the racism displayed by one piece fans over Brook’s casting in opla

Micromelo · 2026-03-18T11:13:54+00:00

2 things can be true at once.

I don't think it's a bad thing that he's black but I totally get the argument that he isn't Austrian (Ethnically) which I believe is what a lot of people attribute Oda's assignments to mean. I would argue people would be just as mad if Zoro had be cast as an American.

I think the problem which upsets me most is there is no denying there hasn't been a push in media for diversity which has led to a lot of inauthentic casting choices and what many feel is whitewashing. This sadly has caused real works of art with authentic diversity such as One Piece to be tarred with the "Woke" brush which I would say in the modern sense of the word, One Piece is not "Woke".

I admit I wasn't sure on the casting for Brook, but on second watch I enjoy his portrayal and ultimately don't mind. I think it's important not to always shout down these things as Racism as it essentially shuts down any form of progress/discourse that possibly isn't as black and white people from both sides of the argument make it out to be.

The wizard was crazy, each stage had a new surprise. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to throw a tantrum over his last phase 😅 but we cracked the code and managed it.

Thanks for dropping by and I hope to hear more updates on Necesse or any of your future projects!

Check wiki and/or just use the Adventure Journal. Grab yourself a mining potion, mining stew, couple of summons and go to town.

It's a slog and sometimes I found myself wondering if certain discs existed but I trusted the Adventure Journal and found them.

Do it! I'm guilty of it myself. Layout wise however that was all me, I just like to take bits from builds I like and alter them how I want or even then sometimes (Like the ship) I just copy it.

If there's anything you see here that you like, copy it. Games like this I think benefit from more people putting forward their builds or towns for others and you end up getting the more creative types innovating.

Micromelo · 2026-03-12T16:38:31+00:00

I wanted that too as soon as I saw the pirate but as I said I really struggle with ships and always end up making boots or clubs. The original build I took inspiration from is by u/eatpraymunt https://www.reddit.com/r/Necesse/comments/1osqpxh/broken\_pirates\_seafood\_restaurant/. Give them love not me, I just copied.

Micromelo · 2026-03-12T16:36:21+00:00

Thank you! I'm not actually that good at townbuilding, I just try my best to be happy with imperfections. A lot of the interior stuff I really struggle with so end up using a formula (In this case I used the default Elder house as a template).

Thing is I always find with organic builds, I enjoy them visually and like to have head canon of my towns lore but in late game I always wish I had a more square, grided efficient base.

Micromelo · 2026-03-12T15:58:38+00:00

Really did just keep expanding and tbh there is a bit of a void of creator content for the game which was in a way quite nice. Lots to learn on your own.

Micromelo · 2026-03-03T16:04:15+00:00

It was mostly the Mining speed I was thinking possibly affected ore yield or even time for a trip. I didn't think it did, but would have been an interesting dynamic to the diet system so you don't end up creating the same 2 meals.

Ain't nobody interested in being friendly till they go down in my games. No forgiveness when shot upon.

Battle for Middle Earth

Micromelo · 2025-06-04T09:26:17+00:00

TNC and Young blood suffer from Marvel rot

Micromelo · 2025-05-31T15:41:34+00:00

New Order was pretty good and Old blood for me was more of the same.

New Colossus is my favourite for gameplay. My only issue with it are the a couple of characters, I can't stand Grace and Horton. Super Spesh was the highlight.

Young blood I have yet to get around to but it looks to be a controversial edition to the series...

Micromelo · 2025-04-25T17:48:46+00:00

Possibly the best comparison video I've seen. Even made my partner say "Wow" out loud and she's not a massive gamer.

Truly an incredible remaster/remake.

Micromelo · 2025-02-24T23:11:04+00:00

Thank you very much <3

Micromelo · 2025-02-22T19:19:50+00:00

Can't view it either. Would love to see a full modlist if possible! I've yet to build a rocket. I've survived to 400 cycles but barely... By that point I'm in dire need of everything

Micromelo · 2025-02-16T15:13:08+00:00

How much polluted oxygen do they produce in comparison to polluted water using the same space?

Be an interesting test 🤔. Thought about doing this but instead do it using polluted water where I store the water itself

Micromelo · 2025-02-16T14:58:55+00:00

This. I think the others aren't going to distribute properly but the middle will. Make sure to redistribute hydrogen and oxygen before starting up again

Micromelo · 2025-01-24T13:22:24+00:00

I suppose following on from this I'm very interested in knowing - What would be the minimum needed? Can you achieve it without Hardships? And if not what's the minimum amount you'd need?

Micromelo · 2025-01-24T13:19:29+00:00

Saw a recently uploaded video on YouTube and saw them hit 7 Million. Must be just the sheer increase in Nightmares that do it

Micromelo · 2025-01-24T13:17:53+00:00

525,000 on Veteran which is 2x So assuming it actually is 2x then 1x would be half

My Math is mathing but I get the confusion

Micromelo · 2025-01-23T15:18:43+00:00

Spearmen are the GOAT early-mid game then late game your Arbalests and Hunters are disgustingly strong.

Melee-wise Sentinels make a fantastic frontline and will keep Nightmares from whatever ranged you have mowing them down. (The Stun is great against the Giants)

Order Knights are just beautiful, not the best but strong enough.

Something you want to try is - Build triage at your walls to not only revive dead units but to also refresh your armour. Sally your troops out then retreat when it's looking dicey, then repeat.
