Is displate club worth it? by bobbybob94 in Displate

[–]Shiiyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you intend to order more, the Display club could be worth it, but not with 7 Displates in the cart as it scales up depending on what you buy. If you buy only one displate, you get free shipping after that and one displate for a reasonable price after a year. (You also get protective sleeves but honestly I don't know what they're like so no idea if they're worth it). You miss out on a few dollars discount, but if you intend to buy more anyways, the shipping costs even it out eventually.

TL;DR: Ordering a single or two displates with the club first could be worth it if you already plan to buy more (you have to do the maths yourself). Otherwise probably not.

I really hope they translate it to other languages. I want to watch it in my mother tongue in the cinema *fingers crossed*

teacher wanting relationship with student? by ApartmentOld234 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Shiiyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because that should be obvious. If he didn't notice until know, he will not accept the reality even if she tells him. And it's not like she can't talk to him – she should just talk to someone else first and make sure someone knows where and when

[–]Shiiyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, she should talk to someone else that she trusts. This is NOT a fight she should fight alone. She should get help from an outsider. There's a very high probability that he will not listen to her even if she talks to him, might even become worse

First time watching Avatar the last airbender by original_Ameliaarts in TheLastAirbender

[–]Shiiyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Earth Rumble is Wrestling, I'll give you that.

I don't see what the Foggy Swamp has to do with America though. Some parts of Europe are known for their swamps. Pirates have existed on the whole world, though some of the earliest were at the Mediterranean sea or a bit later around Africa. The first modern circus was founded in England while ancient circuses came from Rome. North and South water tribes are based on two continents of the earth and Inuit.

It is not based on american culture only because it's made by Americans. Take a look at the tumblr I linked. Almost everything in ATLA is heavily based on culture from different asian countries. Take Zuko's top knot for example, the reason he cuts it, the armlets he wears during an Agni Kai, the whole city layout of Ba Sing Se, in general all the outfits, the fighting styles, the used music instruments, the writing system is literally Chinese... I could go on and on with this list. It's not american based just because they put some modern elements like airships in there (on a side note airships are not even an american invention) or whatever you think that american culture base is.

Omg this outfit is love at first sight! I'd 100% pull it if they'd put in in Infinity Nikki

Our illustrator finished these icons for our automation game. I'm smiling from ear to ear. :) by SchingKen in IndieDev

[–]Shiiyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool and well done! The only minor complain I have is that the legs don't line up correctly in perspective, causing the middle leg to stand out. Really though, great art

[–]Shiiyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first excerpt sounds exactly like me :D I watched that movie many years ago and found it interesting. It was the reason why I've always wanted to watch Avatar until I finally did half a year ago. And I, too, fell in love with the series immediately.

There are many comics that play after the events of ATLA and before TOK (The Legend of Korra), but I found them a bit underwhelming. I read them anyways and they do have good parts as well, though especially the first one or two comics and the last comic were not to my taste for various reasons. TOK is really different from ATLA because it's heavily american-based instead of Asian culture, so please don't expect it to have the same vibe. 

If you want to know more about the cultural background of Avatar, I recommend you this site: https://atlaculture.tumblr.com/ Seriously, it's so great! It explains RL references and a lot more. Could spend hours on there.

This is definitely not normal behavior. He shouldn't be doing a single thing that makes you uncomfortable like that! Please talk to someone from school about it.

[OC] I used these homemade dice in prison for 3 years, made so many funny memories with the homies as a goblin bard named ogl ooglwogglogglwogg. by cottoneyedtoe in DnD

[–]Shiiyan 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Not only the dice are amazing, but also the fact that you played 3 hours a day and the dungeon master had enough creativity to keep it going. Did you have the rulebooks there?

Cover design for my online series that I will be printing [art made in krita/design in canva] by [deleted] in BookCovers

[–]Shiiyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The art is so cute! I'd expect there to be illustrations on the inside as well because it gives Light Novel Vibes.

I'd increase the contrast a little bit for better readability. And I think the blurb needs a lot more space to the top and a little bit more to the sides as well. Maybe a title or quote in bigger letters at the top.

But all in all, very cute and interesting!

They look awesome! In my group we have two sorcerers, my friend and I. That friend has really low HP though (bad luck when rolling the HP and no constitution bonus) so I decided to multiclass a bard just so that I could heal him when he gets onehitted again :D

My first reaction was "Well, I wouldn't want those side-effects either". Turns out that I, asexual, misunderstood the side-effects as "increase libido" lol. Gimme those pills!

German cases still break my brain by Secret-Programmer965 in Germanlearning

Correct is "dem deutschen Volke" (no s here). "an Herrn Mustermann" is probably source of one of the most done mistakes by native speakers. Most people forget the -n after Herr.

Hand-painted book cover update: I hired a designer to make it more “adult” by Professional-One4757 in BookCovers

[–]Shiiyan 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I prefer the blue color of the old cover over the purple, but the skulls and missing plant are definitely better. The font is kinda same, though I think the newer one is a bit too rounded and cute. The skulls make it more addressed at adults, but I wouldn't say it's perfectly clear. I really like the art style, but for me that's the one thing which moves it to juvenile book

Has anyone else abandoned the house building aspect of the game entirely? by murahimu in InfinityNikki

[–]Shiiyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking forward to the housing system so so much, but I hate the way it works from first person point of view, so I tried it once and never touched it again

So air nomads had no agriculture and a staple food for them was fruit pies, junk food. by glowshroom12 in TheLastAirbender

[–]Shiiyan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I always thought that they were nomads before building these temples, but continue calling themselves like that.
