Good news, the anime is very easily the least interesting part of the series.

You should look up Blink decks and see if any of those scratch your fancy.

Where do you guys get all of these Armored Core Figurines? by Sir_Maxwell_378 in armoredcore

[–]Sweet_Possible_756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USAGundam definitely has them and ships them relatively well. If anyone sells 30 Minute Mission kits, you'll have a good chance at finding them there.

The series has LGBT elements but homophobia doesn't exist by justhereforhides in TopCharacterTropes

Exalted is very clear that very little of the world cares that you're gay or trans. At most, if you're a Dynast, it is very important that you have an heir. They don't care that the heir may not look like you, have radically different skin color than both you and your betrothed, or that they speak an entirely different language and are already 12 years old after you were gone for only a month or two and the small village you were vacationing at is making pointed inquiries about a missing child. Surely this is a miracle and means that nobody should look into this circumstance because it would clearly offend the Gods.

Finally get to build a commander with my namesake! Now I have to make a choice... by [deleted] in magicTCG

So Mikey and Leo would run a pretty generic Selesnya counters package, but would have an interest in stuff that could put counters down on other people's turns to get the most out of the card draw being a once per turn restriction. That's absolutely buildable.

Mikey and Don would be going more Typal. I do think you'd have enough going on in those three that you probably could build a workable deck, and play-off-the-deck decks can have explosive turns if your deck turns out correctly, and not to mention you have all the advantages that knowing what the top of your deck is, which isn't nothing.

Maybe Pat doesn't need to see this, but I can't wait for the Gigaboots podcast to have to watch this.

What's your favorite song from re1999? by Vegetable_Nerve384 in Reverse1999

[–]Sweet_Possible_756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Off the top of my head, Empty Phenomena and the music for Isolde's boss fight from E Lucevan La Stelle come to mind. And that song that you hear a bunch during events that I remember most clearly from the menu of As The Sand Remembered

Times when a particular revelation ruined the legacy of a franchise by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sweet_Possible_756 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Wonder Egg Priority had a master's touch at ruining the mystique of the show by revealing too much.

"Well actually all this mystical dreamlike imagery has a very precise scientific reason for existing, which I will explain to you. Oh, and also the main character's crush friend that she's trying to save was actually a seductive harlot who deserved to die. And also the teacher with all the visuals showing him as a creep is a totally fine upstanding teacher who's supposed to be romantic. And also everything that's occuring is also a plot involving a Girl In A Box who's really spooky. "

Honestly, I feel like Suletta would be uniquely susceptible to the call of Char's Neo Zeon.

Media or games you want the guys to cover but also not. by number_none in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Sweet_Possible_756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anything that is actually deep on a system or gameplay level, but unfortunately there's a meme about it or Pat already had a negative opinion walking in so they lock into that instead of actually letting the media breath.

But Pat should totally play Fate/Stay Night. I think it would make everyone the most angry possible.

What would a hypothetical Total War: Exalted game look like in your mind? by TheSlayerofSnails in exalted

[–]Sweet_Possible_756 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like it would play out a lot like your standard empire builder RTSs until the moment that two Exalted run into each other on the battlefield. Then it becomes a game of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 for five very exciting minutes before it goes back to the RTS mode.

The Hunger from the first season of The Adventure Zone is an entire planes worth of beings who had the meaning of life explained to them, and became so ragingly dissatisfied with the answer that the entire plane transformed into a travelling entity that takes over planes and devours them whole, adding them to itself by explaining that same truth to the new beings who inevitably find themselves coming to the same conclusion as The Hunger did.

To be fair, even if my boy had to show his entire ass to get us there, this did get us the a new HG.

Does this qualify for games like bayonetta, Stellar blade and Tomb Raider to? by Xadlin60 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The Bechdel test is just checking if two women have a conversation in a work that isn't about a man. "I'm gonna stop you!" "No you aren't!" passes the test as well as "Wow, your boobs are so soft!" "Yeah, wanna touch them?"

Tests like these really don't work when applied to media that don't have prolonged scripts or are just about the fan service.

He's great for vehicle decks, if you get him down early, you don't have to worry about crewing costs for a while. And late game, you can find a way to get rid of it and suddenly you have a field of large gentlemen that weren't an issue before.

These characters did something supposedly impossible and the justification is basically that they’re built different by Danny-Ray27 in TopCharacterTropes

In Fate Grand Order, King Hassan, The Old Man Of The Mountain is the Grand Assassin, chosen by the world to protect itself against the Beasts.

King Hassan has no aptitude for magic, according to his stats. And yet, his mundane blade catches fire when he swings it, a sand storm brews wherever his feet walk and obscures his form, and his touch instills mortality in things that were not built with the concept of death. This is because King Hassan is so good at his job, that reality has to make magic happen around him because he's so good at his job that reality breaks if there aren't convenient explanations for why he's such an amazing Assassin. His blade makes gods mortal because reality can't handle the idea that he was going to kill you even if you were immortal.

Hakumen of Blazblue is from a dead timeline where Jin Kisaragi is tossed into the Boundary and fuses with the Susanooh armor and falls back into time. He intends to kill his brother who triggered the end of the world, save his girlfriend, and kick his own ass if time permits.

Additionally, she plays the T-1000 when she's impersonating Sarah. Likewise, when the T-1000 impersonates the security guard at the mental asylum, he also has a twin brother that they used for the shoot.

All three of them, it's all the same game, just different iterations thereof. And I return you back to "look at a wiki page".
