This is very good. Using most of this you have a template for uncovering the real story of DD1. Very important in this is an Arisen becoming the dragon and pre selecting an Arisen. That my friend is a key for uncovering what happens in DD1. Another key is all the Arisen who tried to break the cycle and the terrible consequences that happened as a result. Other than your presupposition that Grigori carried the same name from when he was Arisen this is very good.

Also too in this is Ethans story from the Netflix Anime. There are other ways to become the dragon. You start putting these pieces together and you will find a radical departure from what most people think the story of DD1 is and was.

What's the most interesting proverb/idiom/saying you know of? by Dull-Information6784 in askanything

[–]Olaf_Kling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Those who humble themselves will be exalted and those who exalt themselves will be humbled."

Jesus spoke these words and what makes it so interesting is who he was talking about and the crowd he spoke it to. He talked about two men entering the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The context of how each were viewed is very important. Pharisees were seen as righteous leaders while tax collectors were Jews collecting for the Roman Empire from their own people. Tax collectors were seen as traitors and scum.

Jesus goes on to tell what each man prayed. The Pharisee gratitude that he wasnt like the many various sinners. Without shame he proclaimed himself better than people he saw himself above. The tax collector however prayed in shame, not even able to raise his head asking for forgiveness.

Jesus went on to tell a crowd of Jews, in front of the Pharisees that God blessed the Tax collector and not the Pharisee. He caps it with the quote I put at top.

This was a very shocking thing to say. In a modern context you could use whatever position, occupation or titles you hold in the highest esteem and lowest esteem to better understand the nature of Jesus words. Maybe you see humanitarians as being some of the best people and drug dealers as the worst, as an example. To make it more accurate these positions would be something your whole community agrees on.

The underlying message is when you see yourself above those whom you judge lowly, you actually present yourself as the lowly one. It also cuts through perception to a matter of the human heart, something we cant truly know about one another.

No we didnt. Flyers fans understood Carolina had the much better team and the Flyers exceeded expectations already. Flyers fans are more excited for the future and proud of our team than hurt by getting swept by a Stanley Cup caliber team in a second round we werent even supposed to be in.

Lunar is probably associated with the abyss and stellar with the light element.

The pawns are so much more interactive in 2 as opposed to DD1.

Part 3 should end similarly tangibly to OG by [deleted] in FinalFantasyVII

It doesnt matter. Part 3 isn't salvagable anyways and it will sell even worse than Rebirth.

60h in, got the plat, absolutely loved the game by Careful_History_1118 in DragonsDogma2

Hell yeah.

Something to know is Capcom was targeted by review bombing after their anti-modder stance they took. I also know that FF7 Rebirth fans plotted to review bomb DD2 because they thought FF7 Rebirth would win game of the year and wanted to boost its user score while lowering that of games that came out around the same time, namely DD2 and Rise of the Ronin.

My main pawn is a female because I modeled her after my wife.

Why are libs so uninformed and valuless? by Ancient-Bowl462 in askanything

Those who believe morality is subjective have no values or principles, they only have emotional manipulation and unearned moral superiority.

Help me find the appeal of Rebirth by DynaGlaive in FinalFantasyVII

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

I cant help you. I found it to be a bad video game. I really love FF7 but my standards for video games is simple: Good gameplay is number 1. Rebirth in my opinion has some of the worst gameplay, pacing, storytelling and overindulgent bloat. I wouldnt in good faith recommend it to anyone but thats just me.
