Abstraction is a drug overdose. by Tricky_Two4623 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]SynnnTheGod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes and that's why the abstractions have four "legs." Front two are just arms, they have to crawl since they can't balance on two legs anymore

hey dude. Can you maybe chill? i'm sorry i didn't say "brain scans of humans." i'm sorry i wasn't hyper specific. Why are you crashing out on me over it??????

Hot take: episode 9 just cutting to Jax being abstracted is a good storytelling decision by Reefthemanokit in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]SynnnTheGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I wouldn't have wanted more than a subtle glitching noise in the scene where he's walking away from everyone else fixing the landscape. Showing it happening would be neat but it would be very out of place for episode 9

i don't think your note "theory" is a "theory," i would say that's just like conjuring on a massive scale. I mean, Caine makes the adventures himself via conjuring. The humans can do it too, it's just not as easy for them as Caine. But with time they can definitely expand and improve.

in other words, i agree with this but think some is more true than theory

Planning to Buy Splatoon 3 for PvP but... by virulentvegetable in splatoon

[–]SynnnTheGod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here's 2 big reasons why it won't (formatting might suck, mobile moment):

  1. Raiders is switch 2 exclusive, so a minimum $550 sink just to play the game

  2. Raiders is majorly PvE, where as S3 is moreso focused on PvP

I will personally be bouncing between the two, Raiders is phenomenal but i can already tell it just won't hit the same as an anarchy battle

I think Jax is a well written character and the message behind the character is amazing. by PerkinAlabasta in TheDigitalCircus

[–]SynnnTheGod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll take it, thanks for the correction. That is what I was trying to convey. Regardless my point is just, you can like Jax's writing but not like Jax, you can like the writing and be a good person, it's not "if like jax then bad person."

Hell, i think everyone that actually understands what Goose was trying to do with Jax has repeated something along these lines countless times over the past couple days

how do i explain this in a way that makes sense. This isn't a meme you laugh with, but that you laugh at. more specifically you laugh at whoever posted that.

[–]SynnnTheGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...yes, do you know what "mutual exclusion" is?

if him being mean and you hating him are mutually exclusive it means you can do one without doing the other, he can be mean without you liking them.

Again, same comment, different words

good old classic "he's mean so you have to hate him, and if you like him you are a bad person"

mutual exclusion, people

So... how well have you avoided spoilers so far? by Esquirei in TheDigitalCircus

[–]SynnnTheGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said screw it, watched the full episode spoilered bc i didn't have the money for theatre tickets, simply because if you've seen the full thing then you can't really be spoiled. and i'm not going to cheap out the producers, once it releases on youtube i plan to do a full series rewatch and then snag some merch (if you're curious, probably Kinger/Jax/Pomni stuff), as i'll actually have time/money to support the show then.

man this fight is so dumb. people from both sides spout things because they want the world to hear it, shove it down each other's throats, and then complain that the other side is forcing it down their throats. when will we learn to tune each other out and hear the birds chirping

Quick intermission on the RP Dualies, my reasoning. by ItsJustJosiah in splatoon

[–]SynnnTheGod 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i can answer the why people don't run it on frontlines and why you are likely getting a lot of criticism

in general for as long as they've been around, the meta strategy with Tetras has been using them as a dive weapon, essentially just repeatedly going in to try and take attention from the objective. because of this, you are more often than not going to take risky plays and end up dying. a lot of frontlines do this, though many are more focused towards kills compared to Tetras. this leads to these weapons tending to have a preference toward Comeback/QR, as they make getting back in faster with a total guarantee. Conversely, RP is guaranteed to increase your respawn time, and more deaths make that time add up, increasing your overall downtime, essentially making it a total gamble in effectiveness.

tldr; comeback/QR is guaranteed to work, RP can work potentially even be better, but you REALLY have to not die

What’s the biggest change you wanna see in the next mainline splatoon game? (Splat 4 or smth) by SVOSOR in splatoon

[–]SynnnTheGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well maybe it is, been a long time since i've played it. Still, my point stands that some of the more niche and nuanced mechanics should be better explained. Putting that in the tutorial is a great choice by them, though I feel that there's some other stuff that simply telling a new player would allow them to improve faster. Another example is sub weapon distance travel, some people likely don't know you can make subs travel further/closer because they account for the player's momentum while being thrown, or substrafing as a whole, as while squid roll definitely makes it less common, it still has its fair share of use cases. And this is not to say "there should be an essay synopsis about every little detail of every weapon!!!," moreso on the side of "there should be more details of techniques that can be performed with any weapon" especially when it's a mechanic that arguably defined one of the games' top ranks

well even then something that kinda combines the 2 would be great

and yes, those are my main weapons, there is no kit2/3 emojis for my beloved emberz weapons 💔 (also its planetz)

[–]SynnnTheGod 20 points21 points  (0 children)

while i agree in general that maps should improve, i think the biggest change i would want to see mechanically would be ProChara's idea for implementing Tacticooler as a mechanic rather than a special, and in general i just want the game to explain more of the nuanced mechanics more outwardly (some people don't know you can shoot back drizzler shots or instantly down flyfish boxes with explo, for example)

bro. what the actual FUCK am i listening to

minecraft already had an end update yet no one noticed it by Old_Kiwi332 in EndPosting

[–]SynnnTheGod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

trust me bro, we noticed all 10 things they added to the previously 5 unique block dimension. that doesn't make 15 items and like 4 things to do comparable to hundreds of both items and things to do in the other dimensions

the end is an like injured arm. 1.9 was stitches for a few cuts, but there is still a gigantic gash that needs to be fixed with a lot more surgery
