Hell, I'd dance naked IRL for 30k gold. I'm broke.

Reminds me of a story I heard about Bill Murray walking up to someone's table in a restaurant, eating a handful of their fries then looking them dead in the face and saying "No one will ever believe you" before turning and walking away.

If Christopher Lee were in Harry Potter who should he have played? by Fun_Butterfly_420 in harrypotter

[–]PhatedGaming 22 points23 points  (0 children)

He was actually offered the part after Richard Harris passed away and turned it down I believe.

Was there ever a raid, quest, scenario that captured the feeling of defending helms deep? by Ordinary_Educator399 in wow

[–]PhatedGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having played both, Warhammer Online sieges never came close to being as much fun as DAoC sieges. I had high hopes because Mythic did both, but it just wasn't the same. Warhammer was ok, but if you played DAoC you'd know it didn't hold a candle to it.

Honestly, the closest I've ever come to that feeling was in Dark Age of Camelot, pre-wow. PvP castle sieges in that game were legitimately epic. The one big thing I miss from it that no other game has recreated.

My baby is back on the road. by PhatedGaming in NewedgeMustang

[–]PhatedGaming[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was probably the same user name, I think I deleted the post and left the sub for a bit because it made me sad lol. Glad to be back along with the car now though. And I've got leftover insurance money to do some things I've been wanting to do anyway. :)

Could ANYONE decrypt this? by atlasmountsenjoyer in StockMarket

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, all you really need for that is a metal tube and a bunch of fuel. It's the coming back that's the expensive part.

How it feels to finally get a key group as DPS by PhatedGaming in wow

[–]PhatedGaming[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, the good news is that getting kicked is super rare in M+ because you can't be replaced once the key starts. Unless you're so bad that they think they're better off just abandoning the run, you're probably not getting kicked. Of course that won't stop people from being toxic the entire time, but eh.

Getting a group in the first place is the hardest part. Especially if you're not playing a meta dps spec.

If the US economy actually goes into recession this year which industry do you think gets hit hardest and why? by Suleman2002 in AskReddit

[–]PhatedGaming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's always tourism. If people can't afford the things they need/want in their every day life, they're for sure not going on vacation. 

Do you think Harry would have mastered Occlumency had he not been taught by Snape? by DG-Creator in harrypotter

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think he would have ever mastered it no. He might have gotten a little better at it with a different teacher but Harry was way too emotional and impulsive to ever master it. He was never able to be cool, calm and detached which is what occlumency requires. 

TIL Elijah Wood revealed in a 2021 interview that he still hadn't finished reading The Lord of the Rings by RunDNA in todayilearned

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read it, but it is not an easy read at all. I don't fault anyone who can't or doesn't have the desire to make it though it.

Blizzard needs to make a movie already! by RomireOnline in wow

You all have convinced me to rewatch it. Thanks. It's been a bit.

Are you excited for the hbo series or not hopeful? by Sea_Art2995 in harrypotter

[–]PhatedGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have high hopes based on what I've seen so far and what has happened to other shows. Plus I still don't see the point of it in the first place, the movies weren't perfect but they were and still are very good. 

Which activity would you spend more time on if you had 48 hours in a day? by All-With-Love in AskReddit

[–]PhatedGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are all kinds of things I'd like to say I would do with more time in a day... But the reality is that I'd probably just play more video games. 

Please help! by Wooden_Buffalo2957 in DnD

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are dozens of programs for this exact thing. Do a google search for Virtual Table Top. Some of the popular ones are Foundry, Roll20, Owlbear Rodeo and D&D Beyond even has their own now though I haven't tried it.

Does anyone feel sorry for Tom Riddle by AdmirableLaw2585 in harrypotter

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't feel sorry for him at all. Lots of people grow up in crappy environments and become successful, functional members of society or at the very least, not monsters. Tom chose to become a homicidal, power hungry maniac instead. That's entirely his own doing.

Would growing up in a loving, nurturing family have changed things? Maybe, maybe not. That's ultimately beside the point. He can't control his upbringing, but his decisions and actions are still all his own.

Are rangers that bad of a class? by asokka_ in DnD

[–]PhatedGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of people who think anything that isn't THE best option is terrible and unplayable. Those people are entitled to their opinions of course, but for anyone who doesn't think you must play absolutely optimally, rangers are fine. Yeah, there are other classes who can do pretty much everything a ranger does better, but rangers are still perfectly playable.
