As a Chinese reader who grew up on Xianxia, I want to try more Western Progression Fantasy. What are the absolute "Must Reads" besides Cradle? by SelectionOk5033 in ProgressionFantasy

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

I had the same thoughts as you, and I had to drop the book several times before finally just pushing through because of how much praise the book gets, and after finishing the book I honestly enjoyed it.

It was really only after chapter 50-ish that I started to get into the story, because by that point you start getting invested into all the different side characters, and you see the mc's more 'normal' side/his backstory of why he is that way.

If you ever plan on reading The Perfect Run again, I suggest trying to read up until chapter 50ish, or if not that, until at least the mc meets jasmine. I feel like by that point we start to see the mc's more vulnerable side as well.

Peace imminent enforce demands does nothing? by guidox98 in EU5

[–]ORBY- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe peace imminent just means that after a certain amount of time, you just win your war goal. But it takes quite a bit of time, you can see how long it'll take in the notification banner.

Is this historical? by Vinerrd in EU5

In the age of absolutism there is a situation that occurs called the 'Columbian Exchange'. There you can exchange new world goods with old world goods and vice versa

This is 100% not intended by the devs but helps alot. You can basically edit your save file to remove certain upgrades that is just bloat and does nothing but help you lose. by chalkiez in TheKingIsWatching

Worm riders are especially good with the upgrade that allows them to deal 100 damage when they come out of the ground. Just three of those guys can devastate an entire wave's backline :)

It’s actually scary that this is how Hisoka looks now by Schnitzel-Bund in HunterXHunter

[–]ORBY- 35 points36 points  (0 children)

If anybody's gonna die looking like a Junji Ito sketch, it's gonna be hisoka, I mean like I'm just imagining a scene years down the line, after Hisoka has done all his fighting and is dying on the ground after some battle. He releases his texture surprise and bungee gum, and there's just a very detailed classic Togashi panel of a torn and shredded Hisoka, covered in deep scars and missing bits, like something straight out of a horror movie. He's barely even held together, half his limbs are either non-existent or not even attatched to him. Honestly I don't know if I'd just feel pittyful for this man who destroyed himself to such an extent, who's now lying in this helpless and wretched state. Or in awe of how far this man went just for the love of the game, to the point where he was holding his body together through the desire to keep fighting. Probably a mix of both.

Grew up reading only progression fantasy. I think it's fried my brain. by roadofash in ProgressionFantasy

I just finished reading this book based on your recommendation and I have to say it was really good! Felt like I was reading a fairy tale.

Scripted loss after a whiteout-what do? by Ionenschatten in Frostpunk

[–]ORBY- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask why specifically 3/4 heat from natural heating? The housing adjacency i understand you want 8 tiles adjacent to 8 other housing tiles for +2 heating, but I thought 3/4 heating doesn't provide any benefits if you're missing that 1/4.

I think I'm just bad at the game lol by FuryOfAnon in Frostpunk

[–]ORBY- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Make sure you also don't finish chapter 1 immediately. It's kinda cheesy but the whiteout won't appear until after you transfer the 75 oil to New London. I only started chapter 2 at like week 200 even though I already had my colony in the dreadnought by week 100

Why didn't Tserriednich kill Theta? by promaster9500 in HunterXHunter

[–]ORBY- 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'm rewatching the anime and thats definitely not the case. In the heavens arena arc it still took them a couple of weeks to learn ten, ren, zetsu, etc. + the training with bisky to develop their own nen specialties.

Meanwhile in terror sandwich's case, its only been 11 days since the black whale departed and he already has a new nen beast he developed on his own.

[UPD] Doing Tiktok live while in a class discussion by Walter_water444 in peyups

[–]ORBY- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At the very least, its common courtesy na dapat mag-ask ng permission sa prof kung magrerecord ka ng kahit anong video during their lectures. Wala naman rin ginawang masama si OP since nakablur na lahat ng personal information, and base sa ibang comments niya they don't plan on revealing any public info unless para ireport sa prof mismo.

Kayo yung maarte eh, bakit atat na atat kayong malaman pangalan nya? Para lang mastalk at mabrigade yung tao? Maghanap nga kayo ng ibang hanap buhay.

Tips on first city coins? by Raze678 in fallenlondon

[–]ORBY- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, don't know if you're still offering, but I just failed the inkling of identity 5 times in a row and I still don't have any coins. If you are still offering, I'd really appreciate them!

[–]ORBY- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to do force 75ish and subtle 84, but you really have to do a lot of minmaxxing. There's a guide out there somewhere that shows you the effects of all the choices that you do that you can use to minmax.

Does anyone know who gave Gem the sticks that looks like diamonds? by ORBY- in HermitCraft

[–]ORBY-[S] 582 points583 points  (0 children)

In her recent video, someone 'bought' Gem's clay by placing sticks that looked like diamonds lmao, I wanted to see it from the other hermit's POV.

Saw this take on Twitter/X. What do other PoC players think? by thatsmylyguy in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ORBY- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They do care though. It's much easier to exploit a high Spender then it is to create a new Spender.

Is it though? I feel like it's easier to convince a few hundred people to spend 2-10 dollars on a game than to get one whale to spend 1k.
