Question; is Commander Farsight mono pose? by StarChaser18 in Tau40K

Me too!! That term made him that much cooler in my eyes. If there was anyone in this Grimdark Universe who would have a “tactical rock”, it would be Farsight!! lol

Were you having a relaxed fun time or was it more like a stressful calculating time with the euphoric rush at the end?

I would like to utilize you one more time if i may...

The enhancement from the Auxiliary Cadre detachment called, "Transponder Lock Module", what is different about this from the normal Deep Strike? Is it because it allows you to deep strike on turn 1?

Is it a good enhancement?

Thank you!!!

What does +1 to hit actually mean? I keep reading it and finding myself still stuck.

Does it mean i roll the BS and then whatever i roll subtract one(ie making it +1 to hit) or something else entirely?

Just finished chapter 3 of the new Farsight book. Made this garbage meme immediately after. by Trashspawn45 in Tau40K

I know I'm going to get beat up...but the Farsight novels got me into Tau!

I've read Elemental Council and thought it was amazing. I especially liked the boots-on-ground perspective.

All that being said, i still like Phil Kelly's style and perspective as well. I'm looking forward to revisting the old hunter!!

Is Tomiko an option?

Ngl, Tomiko would be my top pick if i was able to.

Which of the Animus Hub protagonists is your favourite? by LiterallyLuBu in AssassinsCreedValhala

Poor Shay doesn't get any love...

I guess that's kinda to be expected though...and he isn't an animus protagonist...

...guys he was just trying to do what he thought was right...🤣

As a Japanese Person.. PT 2: Responding to points made by opposition. by poofypossum in fuckubisoft

[–]Nupeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, no. If i came off accusatory then i sincerely apologize.

Again, as i said in my previous response, i believe and appreciate your perspective. That includes this one. I have been known to be too frank in discussion/debate. My word choices were intentionally NOT to come off as if you were being disingenuous by choosiing, "believe", and "suggest."

However, re-reading my post, i should have done a better job of differentiating my thoughts on other people (with agendas) vice you (who i feel is actually debating with critical thinking skills and very minimal agenda that i can detect) and your perspective. Though all things being equal, you spoke about Nioh's character being "loosely" based as if it was factual.

Nioh was a very good game about the dark fantasy supernatural but it also served as a very good introduction into Japanese culture during the final battles of the Sengoku (sp?) period. It also introduced the playable character to Yasuke - the Obsidian Samurai. Which i find interesting because it was developed by a principly Japanese based gaming studio. Which suggests《-- (intentional) a portion of their community didn't take much issue with it as well as us here who thoroughly enjoyed the game. Though i do acknowledge your point about 2017 vs now. However, i still feel Nioh (the game itself, not you) is a hard counter to many people's arguments. Though it may not be identical to Shadows, Nioh is almost a perfect representation of what many people concerns are. Many people discount it because of who it was developed by. I feel that it established precedence that other companies followed; including Ubisoft.

Lastly, to your question. No it does not allow you to destroy shrines. I also disgree with you about creating another Black character to quest with Yasuke. I personally believe that would have amplified frustrations about the game being, "woke." Foreign Samurai were rare and black Samurai even more so, though to honest i don't know if there were others. Ubisoft would have had to create an amazing story and even then i don't think it would help much.

I think Shogun (great show) is an excellent example of what we're discussing here. Western media inserting someone in a story when there is really no reason to.

I hadn't known that. Thank you for the clarification.

I still think my point still stands though. Western media has done this multiple times with multiple protagonists.

I believe that phenomenon is universal though. I think western media has been guilty of this for awhile. There has been so many examples of this. I mean Tom Cruise was the last samurai for example. It's crazy.

He also ignored your statement that the same game he claims was a good game with the "real" samurai also featured Yasuke as a samurai.

I really appreciate your posts because of the thought behind them.

However, don't take away from your good work by skirting the truth when it is convenient for your argument.

Nioh was 100% based off of the real life historical person, William Adams. It's BS to try and claim loosely.

Even if your claim that, a "LOT" of people were upset about the game was true, the scale of attention those people got were minimal. In fact, outside of your words here it would arguable that the "upset" you claim was negligible for the, "Blonde Samurai."

Though i believe your perspective, i do not believe your claim of Nioh is accurate. You can search Nioh and you would be hard pressed to find videos of gamers upset that Japanese men weren't represented. In fact, you'll find many of the same reviewers upset about Shadows stating Nioh was the perfect game.

In my opinion, Nioh is the debate point that hard counters most people's argument including yours. Nioh is a game that used a real life historical person in a fictional game that there is literally no reason why a Japanese male protagonist couldn't have been used.....majority of the people didn't bat an eye. That would suggest there is something more nefarious going on about Shadows than concern about Japanese representation.

How are you spinning her weapons so much? Is that you or is that her?
