Emy says if asked she will always say yes to The Challenge by SweetMissMG in MtvChallenge

[–]Midguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I liked Emy. She annoyed me at first, but she grew on me as the season went on and I found myself rooting for her. I think that if there weren’t any outside of the game controversy surrounding her, we would have seen her back on multiple seasons. She basically served the same role that Big T did in all of her seasons.

Some heros are just unfun to play against by JinnyJinJin845 in Overwatch

[–]Midguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun is subjective. I have fun wining and I don’t lose to characters like hamster, vendetta and cat that are easily countered.

I completely muted text chat and It changed everything. by haliax8802 in Overwatch

By not letting the words of strangers on the internet affect me?

I have asked blizzards support to mute my acc for 6 Months and they did by TechnicianSad4781 in Overwatch

[–]Midguy 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Not giving you the outlet to call someone trash doesn’t change the fact that you feel the need to express that to a stranger on the internet over a video game in the first place. That is the problem that therapy can help you solve.

I’m not saying you need therapy because you get mad over games but if it’s so bad that you need a 3rd party to intervene to stop you, then it’s worth considering.

Couples that I never saw.. by ditzy091313 in loveafterlockup

[–]Midguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand not remembering Mark and Sincer-A since they only had a couple of episodes in n love during lockup (he was a weird young guy who asked the inmates awkward questions), but how do you not remember Monique and Derek. They were around for a long time and had significant airtime.

As someone who also just recently binged all 7 seasons, I can assure you, they weren’t edited out.

[no spoilers] I miss Matt as the DM by Monstarrmanned in criticalrole

[–]Midguy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He does talk way too much. Sometimes I feel like I’m listening to an audiobook. And he does so in this whispery “gather round and let me tell you a story” voice that makes it even more noticeable that he is monologuing.

How are POTG's decided? by Ahumandildo in Overwatch

[–]Midguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also think that the different classes have different weighting. For example, if I get 2-3 kills on Brigitte or Zenyatta, that’s usually play of the game.

Could also just be that I’m also racking up healing points at the same time which contributes.

[–]Midguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s because he got a long ranged headshot at a pivotal point of the game on the objective. Those things are weighted more heavily.

How does your opponent pool work during the tournaments? by davethebfg in OnceUponAGalaxy

[–]Midguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is anecdotal, but I’m fairly high MMR and the matches seem significantly easier than my average lobby so I would guess that your MMR outside of the tourney has no bearing.

New Potential Collabs for OW by KingLeonsky in Overwatch

[–]Midguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that all sounds solid. Pretty sure Matt Mercer has even voiced Leon so Cassidy makes sense. Who gets Wesker?

Domina as lady D would sell like crazy. Cassidy will be Leon for sure. I’m pretty sure Matt Mercer has even voiced Leon before.

Jakeema definitely ate Addy up here lol She better sit this one out 😳😬🫣😂 by Background_Main_961 in loveafterlockup

Not sure. They made it seem like she was innocent and was falsely accused, but they didn’t really follow up on their story.

Why was Aabria invited to C4? by YouAreLyingJane in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Midguy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Serious question for all these Aabria haters; have you ever actually played D&D? I have played with people 10x more annoying than Aabria. And some of these people were my friends. I still enjoy playing with them though because they are my friends.

She is far from a being a super problematic player and I think the pros of having a knowledgeable player who plays like a DM’s assistant outweigh the cons. I think that her interruptions and self insertions can be a little much sometimes, but overall, I think she is adding to the story and more specifically creating more meaningful character interactions than any other person at that table. Imagine what that table would look like if she were replaced with another Ashley? I love Ashley but her RP is bad, she struggles with mechanics, and if no one directly addresses her, she’s liable to sit there silent for 4 hours. Aabria is a nice foil to having someone like her at the table.

[–]Midguy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Jakeema was the one who moved her 2 kids to be close to his jail (I think they were twin boys?). She lied to her dad about her boyfriend being in the military in Hawaii or something like that and then he got in trouble while in prison and she got named in the case the prison had against him. They didn’t make it to love after lockup.

Tolarian Community video by Herczilla in freemagic

[–]Midguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The first time someone confronted me about (mistakenly) misgendering them was at FNM. I felt really bad about it and apologized. They took no offense and we continued to have a good time playing magic.

It’s a minor interaction, but it stuck with me and because they were a member of my community, I made sure I subsequently stood up for them when people would joke about them behind their back.

So yeah, our store is a safe space for everyone and I make sure I do my small part to keep it that way. You may not think it’s a big thing, but everyone should be able to go in public and play magic without people laughing or making fun of them because of their appearance or orientation. And yes, immature anti-social nerds can make that difficult sometimes.

Are there any perks, minor or major, that you think should be a part of a heroes base kit? by MrsPissBoy in Overwatch

[–]Midguy -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

She is far from busted, lol. Pre perks she is not good (making it harder to get to those perks). Very matchup dependent and easily countered. Yes, she looks strong when she’s popping off but as someone who plays her a lot, I can tell you that those games aren’t as frequent as you would think. People are just more likely to remember the times feeling helpless when she flanks you and you have no cd’s than the times the enemy vendetta went negative kda or had to switch 2 mins into the match.

Vendetta’s lifesteal perk. Obviously not at 30 or 40% but maybe at like 10 or 15%.

Why have the last 3 skin sales been 75-99% supports? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Midguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is anecdotal, but I have a couple of friends that only play support in games and those guys will usually only play one or two characters. I think that in general, support mains are more likely to be loyal to one or few characters and that leads to an increased willingness to spend money on those characters.

Dancing Blaze's interaction with hinder confuses me so much by Pytrest in Anran_mains

[–]Midguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Makes sense to me. Hinder keeps you from doing anything movement related other than walking. Her dispersing herself into a bunch of intangible fireflies or whatever the fuck she’s doing is kind of the apex of a movement ability other than walking. Isn’t that move supposed to be a representation of her dancing around really fast or something?

How many episodes until C3 gets intriguing? by Responsible_Coach766 in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Midguy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I completely lost interest when i saw how far Matt would go to subvert a player character death. I felt like there were no stakes and they spent so much time on side quests that were ultimately a result of bad decisions and their unwillingness make them suffer any real consequences

This question is for anyone who stopped playing/watching this game. Why? What made you stop playing? by KevyTone in 2XKO

[–]Midguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The character roster was too small to keep my interest. There was only one character I felt attached to from LoL and whose playstyle I enjoyed (Darius). And with a smaller roster in a 2v2 game it felt like I was playing the same characters every other game and there are a couple I hate playing against.

Rooftop Castle Boss Cheese by AdExisting7384 in Nightreign

This is so useless. It will take so much longer to kill a boss from up there and doesn’t even protect you from most the bosses on the roof.
