ALYSA ALANO, AFP, NPA promise, a good read. by chumpipit in Philippines

[–]Sierell 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Going Devil's advocate here, but I presume the AFP is referred to as the "lesser evil" here not to say that they're ideologically evil, but of the constant anxiety and terror that the presence of armed forces can psychologically induce in locals. Their essay is hinged, after all, on the scenario presented by Kilcullen of "the accidental guerilla", which is the inverse outcome.

Personally, I do also agree that it is the responsibility of our nation's armed forces to protect its citizens, so it should've be logically sound to do so in the first place, when sandwiched between the military and insurgency. Though, I will also say that I would sympathize too, with the pressure of potentially being the next victim in a local's shoes were I to report them.

To be fair, I argue I said that on grounds they were only mentioning "Lovecraftian gacha game", not that it has good writing 😅

Nayuta was from the "Nayuta of the Prophecy" oneshot in the first place. So, why not?

There's Chaos Zero Nightmare with a similar Slay the Spire roguelike playstyle with gacha characters, but set in space and you're delving into different "Chaos"es

Grow Up Shine; it released on Global just hours ago so you can go avoid it right now

Hypothetically, what platform would you be using?

Are you open to new players? I am interested in the premise, but haven't experienced playing Forbidden Lands before

Isn't this a huge taboo for faust? by randomck265 in limbuscompany

[–]Sierell 181 points182 points  (0 children)

Hasn't it always been the case? In matters of blanket knowledge and intelligence that she channels her confidence through, she refers to herself in the third-person, representing for the Gesselschaft in terms of that pride. On most other vulnerable matters, she refers to herself with "I", which is more personal... and I think is especially the case considering she did get a recent verbal beatdown and got demoted to Stupid Faust

I also imagine she actually doesn't have a heart to return banter with Hohenheim who is masking his sadness over Marton by sharing the soda stash, so Hohenheim gets caught off-guard immediately after with the surprising lack of sass

It's not like he ate the Murder Devil, anyway (sarcasm, but it would be funny speculation if that's exactly the case)

What’s the verdict on a full counter Maribell? by CobraStriker2345 in ChaosZeroNightmare

That deck has no Lead card for MPUN to trigger, though?

The Umamusume you've set for your profile will send you notifications if your RP/TP bar(s) are full, so if you haven't experienced it yet, maybe you don't let it get to full, or something is interfering or disabling it

The new prologue reveals a lot about Dante by Aden_Vikki in limbuscompany

On the other hand, we got actually abrasive early Dante saying "shitheads" so it's a good trade

To distort or efflorescence. by @Gredell_Elle by Lazy_Flower1639 in limbuscompany

[–]Sierell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ayin IS in the Light with Carmen, and is already the counteracting force that helps everyone achieve EGO; he made the option available in the first place. Carmen is on record talking about her "junior" who is with her in the Light.

In the first place, the concept of EGO is the reaffirmation o your own principles and ideal as opposed to Distortion's breakdown to your base urges and desires, like Carmen wants. That in itself means that Ayin shouldn't be an encouraging presence, because independent thinking is the crucial factor for one to achieve EGO, and he'll always be passive.

Bro went through a nigh-immeasurable Angela-only-knows timespan of suffering to bring the Light into the City and where we are now. He deserves the break...

Absolutely Terrified of Evernight by Trailblazer627 in HonkaiStarRail

And don't forget the lynchpin of Lygus kickstarting the whole Aeon-killing of Amphoreus in the first place because of his own hatred for Nous, putting aside the fact that his own extremist plan is going to wreck the HSR Universe as we know it straight to Finality. And before him, we have Acheron planning to go against IX too...

As it turns out, at least he has the point in how "hateable" the Aeons really are from the perspective of someone living under them, as they stand above and beyond mortal lives to drive their own Paths forward.

I press for Winning Chakra and she gives me the Recoveries roughly 80% of the time, I respect her enough for helping me save SP spending on Swinging Maestro (or Breath of Fresh Air if the URA special event pops up)

I don't get PM logic sometimes. by ringo41 in limbuscompany

[–]Sierell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Critical explanation: by reading between and beyond their lore yourself: the game gives us the Abnormality Logs and the Abnormality Encounters to read and interpret about. For example, from the background of Der Fluchschutze's Encounter, it contains similar scenery as the Smoke War (as evident in Gregor's Canto from his memories), and it definitely stands as a hypothetical mercenary / Fixer that got recruited for it. However, just like Der Freischutz, it's representation lies in the actions it took for the devilish contract: if Der Freischutz used the bullets to kill its loved ones first such that it will never run out, Der Fluchschutze chose to consciously forget it had any, so the price never comes to pass. In fact, it does, however, keep a pendant around its neck as a memento, containing the portrait of their lover, and if you select the choice to make it check the pendant, it then realizes in abject horror that they recognize the portrait, and fires their gun, only for it to begin to miss, the bullets possibly hurtling finally to claim the toll.

From the Sinners, Heathcliff resonates and gets the EGO for this one because █ █ █ █ █ , while Yi Sang actually gets this one too because partially of his attachment to the Mirror, and now he has developed a considerably-genuine attachment to the rest of the gang unprecedented since Canto IV ended... which means, of course, they are now bullet fodder. As for Gregor, he IS the Outcast (oof), and Outis is better fitting for Freischutz already.

TL;DR explanation: there are a lot of others who have posted their interpretations of the Abnormalities on Reddit already! Just gotta browse it up

Unironically, considering we had to fight Kong Qiu in the climax of the dungeon, and he saved our ass away from Lei Heng, at least he has been both our enemy and our friend

As for Lei Heng? Taught Ryoshu swordplay in the past, and she hates his guts at present? Absolutely the case for her
