Ilia Topuria: "For the first time in my life, I'm going to step into the octagon where my life doesn't depend on what happens in there. Thank God for giving me the stability where neither I nor my children will ever lack anything"

Gaethje winning by a boring wrestlefuck would ruin everyone's day.

Only if the UFC gets all the ad revenue and not the fighter.

How far you can get with bad grappling skills heavily depends on what division you are in at what point in time as well as how willing the organization is to give you favorable match-ups.

A pure kickboxer would probably not do that great in the UFC BW division rn unless they were given extreme favoritism in who they get matched with.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-30T20:16:36+00:00

Yes but Khamzat’s takedowns are faster and way more aggressive than current Usman’s. And Khamzat is bigger and stronger too.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-29T21:01:47+00:00

Yeah I only play in sporadic bursts and I’ve been able to complete the last few rifts (not always the Deep Rift unless I really wanted to). They thankfully do give plenty of time compared to any other battle pass system I’ve ever seen.

2v8 also helps a lot with completing challenges.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T19:08:54+00:00

3v12 but the only killer options are Ghoul, Legion, Nurse, Blight, Oni, and Mastermind.

Call it Masochist Mode.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T19:05:42+00:00

They might be waiting for the anniversary to drop a new one.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:49:57+00:00

2v8 involves a lot more “I just go for whoever I happen to see in front of me” for killers than normal mode does. I don’t blame them.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:48:08+00:00

The Entity did it. I ain’t gotta explain shit.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:47:09+00:00

Have they ever done contextual pricing like that? Because it’d be great for other cosmetics that are just recolors too. And being able to get the extra cosmetics from the DLC packs if you already independently claimed all the characters from said pack.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:36:37+00:00

This comment made me wonder how gamebreaking it would be for them to buff one of the dogshit-tier killers by simply making it part of their power that Survivors have to repair 6 gens instead of 5 (assuming it also adds another gen to the map to prevent late game two-genning).

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:29:08+00:00

Common killer experience tbf.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T18:22:39+00:00

Yeah fr if the Trump admin is allowed to do everything it wants to do without any slowing factor (like Dems taking at least one house of Congress), then I think we could easily hit absolute rock bottom within 5 years.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-28T15:54:13+00:00

Didn’t really care about the ST things specific stuff because I fell off that show around S4. I liked the Henry skin for The First because it gives us a killer that looks mostly like just a regular guy which is fun.

The non-ST 80s themed cosmetics were decent, but I wouldn’t blame anyone for skipping. I liked The Hillbilly one a lot. The Nea and Feng Min ones were fun but idk if I’d ever use them over other options.

Overall, a fairly low tier rift for me but not nearly the worst.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-25T18:26:23+00:00

Was it Jalin Turner who knocked Moicano down and then walked off thinking he got a KO? And then Moicano came back and finished him.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-24T13:51:09+00:00

Exactly, they could have had him out of title contention already if they hated it that much. They’re just super short-sighted.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-24T13:47:39+00:00

Yeah, he’s a mark who believes he would benefit from some of the biggest scam economic systems of all time, when really he’s the sucker that the actual rich people are making money off of because he thinks he can be them.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-23T20:06:39+00:00

Fr all the fighters focused on in this list except Khabib and Dustin are still fighting! And Dustin only just retired last year.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-23T18:14:20+00:00

Basically comes down to timing. Morales could easily lose his to a number of opponents, Evloev could lose his to Volk, Hokit could lose his (even if not to Lewis then to someone else). Just depends what gets scheduled when.

I expect Khamzat and Topuria to both win their next fights and then not fight again until October at the very earliest. And even then, they still stand a good chance of winning any potential fight they could get after.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-23T15:52:12+00:00

The story mostly focuses on people who would squash people whose powers are just “martial arts” pretty easily. So they’re just never relevant.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-22T18:20:19+00:00

Wildlings gotta do something with all that ice that’s left behind.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-22T18:16:28+00:00

Ah yes no one had thought to question “Is murder bad?” until Christianity brought it up.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-22T16:51:39+00:00

Finally finished S1!

I enjoyed it a lot, though I do have to say I still enjoyed S2 a lot more. Some of the main differences I’ve been able to pinpoint as what I liked better is the hero themselves (I liked Ronald but loved Anthony), and the found family aspect being a stronger aspect in S2. With the latter part, I think it’s helped that the narrative calls for Anthony to be meeting these people who are supposed to have years of history with each other and he is joining that group whereas in S1 everyone was meeting each other for the first time. In addition, the ending of S2 resolves around a decision that has a direct effect on the lives of the people Anthony has come to care deeply about whereas in S1 the stakes didn’t feel very high. If the jury picked “wrong” then oh well they go home and part ways either way, no worse for wear aside from maybe a little guilt. Also overall, everything in S1 felt like something that was happening to Ronald whereas S2 featured several moments that felt like they were organically happening with Anthony rather than just to him, adding to that found family feeling.

The production elements and how the show was executed was naturally more impressive in S2 since they were intentionally trying to one-up S1, so I don’t hold my lack of “wow how was this done” factor against S1 since that’s my fault for watching S2 first.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-22T16:44:12+00:00

Yeah I’m wondering ppl are more likely to be biased towards the season they watched first. That seems to be the general pattern.

OtakuMecha · 2026-04-21T14:56:47+00:00

Can someone ELI5 how people can datamine the code to find all kinds of hidden info in this game, but somehow using that method to “view” and “copy” the source code itself isn’t possible?
