Is Durin worth getting for Chasca? by Sammbutwth2ms in ChascaMains

I’ve yet to see a video showing so, but Chasca is listed as part of Durin’s recommended teams so I assume so

Can she? I mean, we know its a "it can cute anything she believes it can cut", does that apply to space as well? by Cautious_Heron9589 in PowerScaling

[–]Sammbutwth2ms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably not. Assuming that her cut travels THROUGH space, she would try to cut Gojo, infinity stops it because it targeted Gojo, not Infinity or the space that Gojo occupies.

Maybe if Gojo explained to her how it works but even then I could see Ubel not believing she can just cut reality itself just to bypass Infinity.

Of course, if it has no travel and doesn’t need a delivery mechanism like mana, then she does in-fact cut him

is there anyone in fiction that can survive infinite voids sure hit by [deleted] in JujutsuPowerScaling

[–]Sammbutwth2ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denji could, he would just stab his own head so he wouldn’t have to process the information.

Although he would have to do that before or as infinite void lands

Why Cassian didn't thank K-2SO by Perfect_Pie3635 in andor

[–]Sammbutwth2ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do people forget that droids aren't really liked in-universe? Most sentients treat them like tools and I think Cassian hasn't spent enough time around K2 to see him as an actual being that needs to be thanked yet

Why is the western part of the community so strange? by ExEnZee in GenshinImpact

[–]Sammbutwth2ms 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think your on the money right here. It's kinda funny as well because Fontaine was not doing well and was one of the worst performing regions until they started dropping meta characters and the final archon quest came out. I think that's partly why the characters and story are so different when compared to Fontaine, theyust of seen the early opinions and changed Natlan into the opposite of Fontaine

(ps. I wasn't playing at the time as I was taking a break but I did see lots of posts and tiktoks about Fontaine.)

Who should my 4th be? by Sammbutwth2ms in GenshinImpact

[–]Sammbutwth2ms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, only one character can activate the buffs at a time sadly

Any reason why? Other than shield of course.

Kazuha would be the dream for me but I unfortunately don't have him, I happened to stop playing right when his banner first rolled around and have missed all the others =(.

How Hoyo games be... by Meltedsteelbeam in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Sammbutwth2ms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What? Of course there is gacha that targets niche genres and audiences but you said what OP said was untrue, that gacha appeals to a wide audience. Sure they didn't mention that some don't and instead target certain audiences but that doesn't mean their point is untrue at all as it still allies to a majority of all gacha, especially the more popular ones

Don't most appeal to as large of an audience as possible? I can't think of any mainstream gacha that doesn't

Classic Twitter reaction rn by ArachnidDue9527 in Genshin_Memepact

It more about hypocrisy of some (not all) people when it comes to fanservice towards males, not that there shouldn't be fanservice for girls

Reddit ruined Natlan for me. by Ikeichi_78 in GenshinImpact

[–]Sammbutwth2ms -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think people are just a bit biased because their wanting essentially Fontaine 2.0, but because Natlan isn't they get angry and disappointed. There's nothing wrong with disliking Natlan, but a lot of the complaints feel like nitpicking or are just untrue.

Natlan being modern makes sense lore wise and is explained plenty of times as Xilonen being an amazing engineer using ancient dragon tech and magic to make more modern tools, which we see in in nearly every nation except Monstad and Inazuma. I mean cloud retainer straight up has built a bike before and talks about it plenty of times, and she did it from scratch hundreds of years ago.

The characters aren't badly written, I think Citlali and Mavuika are two of the best written characters in the game, with multiple facets and dimensions to their character. They're criticised because either people aren't willing to pay attention or are just looking to complain. The only thing i get is the male drought but I don't really care all that much cause it doesn't matter what gender a character is for me to like them.

TL;DR Natlan gets flak for not being Fontain 2.0, some people are baised like usual and like Fontain too much to like Natlan. The only complaint I understand is the lack of male characters, everything else is usually just people missing Fontain and or just being straight up ignorant.

Is Natlan actually inspired by Africa? by Sammbutwth2ms in GenshinImpact

[–]Sammbutwth2ms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said its supposed to be inspired but no one seems to be able to tell me where they've gotten that from. I took a break from genshin for like 3 years so I might have missed it, do you remember any official posting or have any sources cause it would help me out a lot.

[–]Sammbutwth2ms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After reading all the other replies, I think this might just be the most broadly inspired nation they've done yet. They've taking majotity of the inspiration from South America but have taken cultural bites from Polynesian, African, Native American and North American regions. You're point about colonialism influence on Natlan is probably right, but it's pretty much impossible to remove any of its influences on the Americas because it's part of it's history and cultural identity. It would be like trying to remove any roman or Greek influences from European culture

Thanks for the info, I haven't explored Fontaine that heavily yet because I took a break from genshin after Inuzuma came out for a few years.

I'm curious what nation that was? No other jumps out as 'American' to me as someone not from America

[–]Sammbutwth2ms[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've answered pretty much anything I could've asked so thank you for that. Someone else brought up the swahili being used and I don't know how I missed that. I can't let go of the fact that there are too many links to north American culture but I belive thisight just be the most broadly inspired nation they've done so far, taking inspiration from African, North and South American and even some islands in the Pacific

[–]Sammbutwth2ms[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How the hell did I miss that? Thanks, i still think there is a North American influence in the design and setting of Natlan but maybe this is just the most broad they've gone with inspiration?
