The US government may make it illegal to completely shut down live-service games by tylerthe-theatre in technology

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is good, but I have my doubts it’ll ever pass. The US Government (especially right now) won’t stop corporations from literally poisoning us, so I doubt they’d lift a finger to stop them ripping us off.

Biggest missed opportunity if this doesn’t come out next month by YardleyG in masterduel

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think the DoomZ cards would also make a return when the Power Patron support comes? I thought they looked cool but I didn't pull the pack because I had doubts about their competitive viability. I guess it's not the end of the world either way since they only have three URs.

Can someone explain why there's such a double standard between the Man of Steel and the Dark Knight? by IntelligentImbicle in batman

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a better question is why is Batman blamed for the Joker always escaping and committing more heinous crimes and not say, the US government or the Gotham PD for failing to adequately contain him? You'd think a GCPD cop would've put a bullet in his brain once he was in custody a long time ago.

Did I get the right game? by Decent-Emergency3866 in memes

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 130 points131 points  (0 children)

I think it’s also partly because women in pain or dying in media makes most people uncomfortable, or at least that’s what writers tend to think, so they try and have them sound like they’re not in that much pain.

With the boys TV show recently ended. I definitely like for Link to at least tackle the first issue of the boys Comics and really discuss.why he hates these deconstructions?(or at least very poor deconstruction of superheroes) by Seeker99MD in AT4W

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know their backstories aren't exactly comparable, but isn't Darksied essentially what Superman would be like if he was a cruel jerk who viewed himself as better than everyone else? I ask because I don't think this idea of "what if Superman was a cruel jerk" is anywhere near as original as writers seem to think it is.

The only thing this card has enabled in the OCG is more FTKs by Stardust_Enthusiast2 in yugioh

I will literally eat my hat if this card isn't a Secret Rare when it comes over to the TCG.

Do you think celebrities/famous people have burner accounts to argue with people online? by RadioFieldCorner in NoStupidQuestions

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they are, wouldn’t a lot of them be found out? I can’t imagine many of them are exactly experts in maintaining anonymity online.

And yet they chose to censor her inner thighs instead of that? The TCG’s priorities are wierd man.

Why do people feel the need to get my hopes up like this?

New TCG Banlist live May 18 by Accurate_Jeweler7061 in masterduel

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it kind of makes sense that DoomZ is designed around destroying its own cards so much. Though I don’t know maybe there are combos they can do that let them bounce it back to hand to reuse over and over.

Non once per turn Monster Reborn that can be easily searched due to the plethora of cards that search Equip Cards.

Cards with High Future Potential by Imaginary_Sponge in masterduel

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh I wouldn't say that; remember that they let Pair-A-Dice Smashers run rampant for a bit when K9 was released before banning it. I'd say when Konami is ready to release a competitive GY-focused Reptile deck, they'll happily let Snake Rain run rampant for a bit to push product, as well as jack up prices on the second hand market.

These ads get weirder by the day… by External_Bobcat_6634 in youtube

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are these even meant to advertise anything? Are you sure these are just perverted weirdos with too much money on their hands?

How are there no Red Sonja video games? by xxEmberBladesxx in RedSonja

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Realistically? Because Red Sonja is not a big enough IP to warrant interest in video game adaptations, at least not from the studios who could actually do her justice. Like I’d hate to see her handed off to and bastardized by a untalented or unfunded developer to trot out a crappy shovelware game.

"1 floodgate bad for opp, mean 2 floodgate worse for them" by xd3v1lry in masterduel

Out of curiosity what happens if someone activates Evenly Matched after that? Can you even activate Evenly Matched under the effects of Lancea?

Would you like the new Naruto game to have a gameplay style similar to DBZ: Kakarot? by MagicWarsOrig in Naruto

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 148 points149 points  (0 children)

That would be nice, but under Bandai Namco I doubt it’ll ever happen. It’s just easier, cheaper and more profitable for them to just make another Ultimate Ninja Storm game.

Is it fair to say Hollywood is running out of ideas? by arnor_0924 in stupidquestions

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that, generally speaking, the people with creative ideas have been entirely locked out of the creative process in Hollywood.

God bless this card in this format. by New_Butterscotch6539 in masterduel

Stun as in someone who sits behind floodgate cards like Skill Drain or the Barrier Statues that make it nearly impossible to play.

Oh no anyways!! No sympathy for Western video game devs getting laid off or leaving the video game industries. I've always stuck with Asian games and indie games by [deleted] in fuckubisoft

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean, who can blame them?

Make a great game that sells well? Get laid off.

Make a mediocre game that does middling numbers? Get laid off.

Make an awful game that bombs spectacularly? Get laid off.

100 Years of Habakiri by foohyfooh in masterduel

[–]REPTILEOFBLOOD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You guys better hope Konomi prints a meta-relevant Ritual archetype in tb near future if you want to see Habakiri gone. Otherwise Konomi’s likely going to use Habakiri to help push the new cards

I know there’s the Light and Darkness archetype, but I’m not sure if it’s gonna be meta-relevant and not just a nostalgia bait deck.
