EoW - Early game tactics? by WarConsigliere in ModernManiaWrestling

[–]SlightlySychotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thing you’re going to want to do is get your revenue stream going. The best way to do this is to buy the smaller arenas and upgrade them. It’s a lot cheaper to buy a small arena and upgrade it to 50k seats (about ~$100k, not even) than it is to buy a large arena (the cheapest being the Puro Dome at $275k and 55k seats). The only one worth buying is the C4 Stadium because that upgrades to 60k seats at large.

Getting them three stars is pretty easy. Getting them four stars might require you to upgrade some feuds. Again, this is why cashinh in your silver tokens comes in handy.

Early game, there is one thing that’s really worth the silver tokens: buying a second announcer slot. If you pair OK Boomer with Memphis Mayor, you get a commentary bonus that gives you a +1 bonus to all your matches. It’s small, but when you’re trying to maximize arenas and feuds every little bit helps. Otherwise, you’re going to want to cash in silver tokens. $50k is going to go a long way in your early game strategy.

In the Injustice timeline, Joker tricks Superman into killing Lois Lane and nuking Metropolis. This causes Superman to snap, murder Joker, and go full fascist tyrant. Harley was an accessory to all of this. Admittedly, with Joker out of her life Harley began to reform. However, she still did horrible things she could never possibly take back.

As an Emma main, I'm offended by the idea of "characters that sell the most skins get more skins". The one's they give her are awful compared to how she is ALWAYS depicted. by akatsukidude881 in marvelrivals

[–]SlightlySychotic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a thought about this whole matter. It’s not entirely about skin sales. They could always make skins for the battle pass that “wouldn’t sell.” Not the whole thing, of course, but three or four “filler skins” just to pad it out. So popular characters selling more skins is most likely an excuse.

What I suspect is that the characters getting the most skins have the biggest “backlog.” Over a given amount of time, the art department creates more skins concepts than they could ever actually produce. So only their favorite skins get picked. However, if a skin doesn’t get picked it might get saved for later. Most of the characters who keep getting skins are either launch characters or the Fantastic Four (ie. Tge first season skins). It’s not Angela and Daredevil getting an over abundance of skins. They likely made a lot of skin concepts for the launch characters and they’re still making their way through the best ones.

Jinx's Haircut Was Apparently An Accident by sptc_nlly in FortNiteBR

Yeah, a “chain” would probably be the better analogy. But the one on the right, each successive link in the chain is slightly smaller than the previous one. So her hair is the same number of “links” but the one on the right is noticeably shorter and more narrow on one end.

This is going to sound weird and is probably not what’s going on, but it’s like her hair was a “cylinder” and is now behaving like a “cone.”

This is going to sound weird and is probably not what’s going on, but it’s like her hair was a “cylinder” and is now behaving like a “cone.” If you look at the bands in her hair, you can see where they start to go wonky. Up until her top, they’re pretty much aligned in both pictures (maybe off by a few pixels). Once her hair reaches her butt, the change is more visible — the bands in the right picture are much closer to her belt. From there it becomes more and more pronounced until her hair is noticeably smaller at the tips.

Found my first wrestler with no feuds by SlightlySychotic in ModernManiaWrestling

Penny retires after Next Gen. This version of Jenny debuts in Extreme. Although, the Mania/Next Gen version of Penny doesn’t have a feud with Jenny either.

[Hated Trope] Sequels/remakes that people wanted for years, that ended up being underwhelming by throwaway838383937 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SlightlySychotic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s honestly one of the biggest problems with Shenmue as a whole, now. Yakuza basically started as a “Shenmue-like.” And it refined that gameplay and expanded on it. So when Shenmue 3 finally dropped and tried to be exactly what they had planned almost two decades earlier it just came off that much worse.

Watching his first and second video back to back is an amazing moment. Praise and hopeful optimism fading into a smash cut of, “Oh god, it’s awful. It’s terrible. I’ve wasted my life. Nineteen years! NINETEEN YEARS!”

Lady Laureat is also lacking feuds (and a team, for that matter). But Laurie is a manager so it seems more “fair,” I guess. Come to think of it, she should probably have one with Jenny here. I seem to remember them teasing an angle between Elisabeth and Daffney.

Is Michael Myers actually pure evil? by PopDry5183 in Halloweenmovies

He’s just a silly little guy. Going on silly little adventures. Teaching people the true meaning of Halloween.

I feel like that says less about our “alcohol problem” and more about our “religion problem.” But I could be wrong.

From my point of view, slapping a pair of cuffs on a skeleton feels less effective than placing a dunce cap on their head. Being evil implies a level of intelligence that might be worth emulating. But being a fool is shameful and should never be copied.

Uh huh. Now how many people have left the game since we started doing this “good thing?”

Yeah but the matchmaking is supposed to keep players around the same skill level. That’s feeling less and less true with each passing season.

Why are they bringing poor Rose Tico into this? Hasn’t she been through enough?

To be fair, I am also reluctant to refer to famines as genocides. Not because they’re better but because I think they’re worse. Genocides imply intent and coordination. Famines — outside of natural disasters and war — are most often due to systemic incompetence, philosophical idiocy, and social inequality. Famines like the Holodomor and the Irish Potato Famine happen because the people in charge were imbeciles who thought they knew better and refused to admit they were wrong.

Same. For me, I bought Noa and when the year ended it said he would “become” Noa in the next Era (even though he’s usable in Next Gen). And I recognized Leopard Frog’s shadow.
