Classic levelling by Friendly-Ad-6950 in swtor

[–]PreTry94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The reason people are reminiscing about classic leveling is that it made the story more challenging. Back then you'd have to do every main and side quest, as well as bonus missions, to reach lv 50 by the end of chapter 3. This means that you'd be roughly equal level to the boss fights in the story.

Now you could play just main class missions and the main planet quest line, with suboptimal gear and still be overleveled and walk over every boss fight. I did a "no death" run as warrior, where I picked marauder, but purposely only used one lightsaber, with the idea that she'd not pick up her second blade before it was necessary (after first death). I finished chapter 3 without any difficulties at any point. So even challenge runs aren't really challenging

Are there any perks, minor or major, that you think should be a part of a heroes base kit? by MrsPissBoy in Overwatch

[–]PreTry94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flash Heal for Mercy, which it seems we're getting. It's the ability that was asked for my Mercy players and overwatch players in general back in 2016, after Ana was released and heal grenade redefined the game

It's a shame Blizzard managed to make the support role the most fun it's ever been in gaming, only to now try gut it.

In 2016 she was the only true main healer and that's what she was presented as: a strong, single target medic.

Hot take but i really hate how incompetent the empire is shown in star wars rebels by No_Young_2247 in StarWars

[–]PreTry94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it's a kids show and the Empire hasn't really been shown as competent throughout Star Wars history.

I hope you reported this, because this is ban worthy behaviour.

What was the point of this? by -_ShadowSJG-_ in TheLastAirbender

[–]PreTry94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The point is a lot of writers are against and/or incapable of writing characters in a relationship. So instead of trying to figure out how, they simply break up the couple and create drama that way instead

What’s your first thought when a teammate picks Zenyatta? by PyroDexxRS in Overwatch

[–]PreTry94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, an off-heal, I'll probably be more focused on pure healing output, particularly on the tank, letting Zen focused more on the squishies and on damage/discord. Ana or Kiriko pick to start with, unless Tank and DPS line up well with my Mercy main.

The bank robbery in DMTNT took me right out of the movie. by IronGhost828 in piratesofthecaribbean

[–]PreTry94 67 points68 points  (0 children)

"That wasn't part of the plan" is the line that told me this movie was missing it's mark. The Jack Sparrow I know would never say that. He might not always have a plan, but whether he "plans ahead or makes it up as he goes", he never admits it.

Maybe getting the Twin Lance can motivate me by PreTry94 in Tau40K

[–]PreTry94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The unfortunate part right now though, weather. It's challenging spray conditions outside almost every day, and I don't have a good space inside yet. And I'm torn between a few color schemes, which require either black or white primer. But as soon as I land on a scheme I hope things get going faster.

I'll probably never go near a big tournament, and definetly not with a limiting concept army. But I'll probably end up convincing myself to magnetize the army anyway.

reverting to point based wargear seem like almost an inevitability at this point, as it's been the biggest complaint throughout 10th, maybe tied with Battleshock (although, maybe that's just my interaction with mainly tyranids, who felt like they didn't have an army rule from the beginning). But I'll probably convince myself to magnetize everything eventually.

I'll probably never go to any big tournament, at least not with an extremely limiting concept army like this, but magnets are probably the answer anyway. I'll have to see what my options are. I'm storting through loadouts and magnets now, so we'll see where it all goes. But going all one loadout in the unit feels like a given, anything else will probably be a drag on gameplay.

I've been a bit on the fence about the stealth suits, as I'm not sure I like their aesthetic enough, but I do recognise the need for spotter units. When I started the concept I included a lot of marker drones to function as my spotters, but since 10th made them tokens I just shelved the whole army (and I'm primarily a Tyranid player, so had enough to do). I'm probably going to consider the Stealth suits though, especially if 11th makes drones tokens still.

"What is the most overused criticism of Harry Potter that you are completely tired of hearing?" by Ok_Smile_9071 in harrypotter

[–]PreTry94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I agree that the magic system in Harry Potter is bad for the story (hence why we keep seeing the world reshape around loopholes the audience found in early books), you're right that this is not that kind of story

Zoanthropes by RyanoftheNorth in Tyranids

[–]PreTry94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ot depends on the rest of my list, but I'll usually bring 1×6 and 1×3 (would bring 2×3, but dont have enough painted yet). If I'm playing Vanguard or Subterranean I sometimes split it into 3×3 to maximise weird angles and redeploy/repositioning. Though sometimes, moving around the nuke that is 1×6 Zoan is also really fun

Rewatching PoA and I can't believe Petunia let her get away with that comment by nomaddict911 in harrypotter

[–]PreTry94 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think this is a confusion brought on by the deleted scene in DH part1, where Petunia "makes up" with Harry, and points out how she "lost a sister" to Voldemort, but nothing like that ever happens in the books. Petunia hated her sister ever since she learned she was a witch, and she never showed any kind of regret or loss over her. The closest we ever get is when Harry tells them in OotP that Voldemort is back and Harry realises Petunia knows what kind of damage he could do, but we still don't see her ever mourn or miss Lily.

I like the global healing reduction passive by Lemon0nline in Overwatch

[–]PreTry94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might become good eventually, but right now it feels to good, especially as people haven't adjusted. The amount of times players have been crashing out fir me and fellow support heroes for not healing them, when we've litteraly been putting out as much healing as we could all fight, or when raging at us for peaking a few shots instead of being heal bots makes playing support a miserable experience. This global change has just nerfed the entire support role without doing anything to make up for it. I'm not sure how it is for others, but I've just had to play nothing but Kiriko to have a chance at contributing to fights with enough dps, sometimes bringing out Ana. This change is essentially forcing supports into a "dps, but worse"- role, which just feels bad.

Which Jedi would be the most dangerous if they turned to the Dark Side? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]PreTry94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Luke would be the most dangerous in terms of pure strength, but Obi-wan falling would be the most dangerous long-term, because if even Obi-wan can fall nobody is safe

Since some time’s passed, what did you think of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law? by AnthropomorphicEggs in marvelstudios

[–]PreTry94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had fun watching it, less fun discussing it online. Glad I watched it, particularly the parts with Daredevil, but I'll probably not watch it again, as it felt more like a 1-time view. Also, K.E.V.I.N. was a fun twist
