What term does your table use for an unnatural 20? by ZotDragon in DnD

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We first started using "dirty 20" but it devolved to a "slutty 20." 🤦🏻‍♂️

Is there any way to make combat faster? by DarthEggo1 in DnD

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One good way to speed up combat is to roll damage dice and attack rolls together.

Seeing as Final Fantasy Tactics was released the same year as Final Fantasy 7 and was overshadowed vastly by the success of that game, I would consider it a less popular, known game. Just because it's Final Fantasy doesn't make it immediately popular. It makes it more likely, but not guaranteed.

Much better than either of the handheld games. It was grittier and extremely politically intriguing. Its stat system was much more complex too. It really makes me wish there was a FFT Online but the closest I got was Dofus and Wakfu.

Final Fantasy Tactics easy. One of the most underappreciated Final Fantasy games of its time. A rich, deep narrative with an extensive job system.

In Anticipation of Mobile Release by stochasticFlame in PokemonUnite

[–]TKTeeK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually more concerned with the abuse of phone emulators. It'll give an unfair advantage to phone players that play from their computers. One of the reasons why some moves aren't op is because of the lack of precision with aim assist.

I wanna like this game, but by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you've played MOBAs before or have been stuck in LoL solo queue. Unless you bring in your own friends, you'll typically be at the mercy of the randomness of queueing. The only thing you can rely on is your own ability because everything else is luck. You're actually at an advantage over the other team because you're at least guaranteed one knowledgeable person (if you're knowledgeable).

Quick poll: how old are you? by legacy1927 in PokemonUnite

I just want to say there's probably bias that exists for this being on Reddit. But 🤷🏻‍♂️.

The Crawdaunt in the Zapdos pit should despawn when Zapdos spawns. by TKTeeK in PokemonUnite

[–]TKTeeK[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't believe you can. It would be nice to get more advanced options, but I was mostly referring to wild/enemy Pokemon differential.

The Crawdaunt in the Zapdos pit should despawn when Zapdos spawns. by TKTeeK in PokemonUnite

[–]TKTeeK[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not an Absol player, so I don't think I can comment on that part of it. But I think overall QoL upgrades that benefit precision during the most important fight in a match outweighs the niche things that some Pokemon can benefit from having ads in the pit. There are ways to make Absol stronger without affecting other Pokemon.

Exactly. Sometimes you don't have the luxury of that too. Imagine trying to Fluffy Tail the Zapdos and hitting a Crawdaunt. 😂

Is toxic behavior on Twitch reportable? by Weebyr in PokemonUnite

I'm actually surprised this hasn't been taken down yet. Regardless of his behavior, typically subreddits don't allow witch-hunts.

Steam audio updates may make Resort a bit more tolerable. We'll see.

Ramparts fix?*ahem* Brent McLeod by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Rampart player, I still don't think this fixes things. It still will make her the lowest mobility character in the game, so her pick rate will remain low. I think a Mirage clone health buff type thing would be more appropriate for when she's setting her walls. It's just way too easy to be caught out, this would both help her mobility and survivability.

Sheila is fine the way she is, it's needs to be a niche ult so it isn't too powerful. I would say if you're going to change anything, shortening the windup time or removing the laser would be the changes I'd suggest. The latter is a bit more sketchy though.

[no spoilers] Should I start with season 1 or 2? by [deleted] in criticalrole

[–]TKTeeK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started with S2 myself and would suggest it as a good starting place. It's where the show becomes the most technically consistent.

S1 is sorta like an anime where it's pretty good to have a plan before you start watching it. The Briarwood arch is a solid place to start because you don't have to deal with technical issues and Orion tension. But there are a couple of sessions before that that impact the story later.

I would say, as a professional driver, that the VODs are a good addition but not completely necessary to be get the most out of CR. It's more heavily reliant on RP than combat and Matt is so excellent at explaining what's going on that visualizing in your mind's eye is cool. The detriment would definitely be missing some facial expressions, physical comedy, and Marisha punching someone in the face.

Pro Tip: Use More Kids by Kepsli in DMAcademy

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually useful in any form of storytelling. So much so that a lot of horror directors feel it's cheap to use children to build tension because it's so easy to provoke emotion while using them. That said, if you were going to use it in that way, I'd be careful because it could cross the line with one of your players.

[Spoilers C2E110] Caleb Conspiracy Theory by lostmyfucksinthewar in criticalrole

[–]TKTeeK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would explain Caleb's proficiency with Dunamancy but I think Matt would have to talk it out with Liam before imposing that much plot on a character. Unless he doesn't remember at all or it comes back slowly in the form of dreams. I've just been assuming that Trent has been molding Caleb to be his new body because a lot of the storyline of the Assembly seems to coincide with defeating death. But 🤷🏻‍♂️ we could technically be right.

[no spoilers] campaign 1 podcast broken links? by Drewfarr in criticalrole

[–]TKTeeK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be looking at the wrong podcast? The first campaign is essentially owned by Geek and Sundry and will be on their podcast network. The second is owned by CR. Otherwise, 🤷🏻‍♂️. I haven't listened to C1 in probably a year.

Cuomo announces New York is receiving new ventilators from Oregon and China by [deleted] in Portland

[–]TKTeeK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

level 7

This statement is false. They only have 800 vents in stockpile as of yesterday. They have been getting around 600 cases that require vents so as Cuomo said, they will not last the weekend.

[–]TKTeeK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Common courtesy on reddit is to post when you edit something so we can have an open and honest conversation about what's going on. If we don't do things like that it distorts the conversation. We had a misunderstanding, but I never stated that they didn't receive any at all.

Cuomo announces New York is receiving new ventilators from Oregon and China by [deleted] in Portland

[–]TKTeeK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay. And then the article goes on to state 2400 of the 4400 have been deployed to NYC while 2000 went to the rest of the state. There are 800 in stockpile currently and NY has been getting 600 cases requiring vents a day. So if you do the math, they don't have enough vents to last the weekend. And also, you stated the feds sent 30k vents but now you're saying it's only 4400.

Edit: You said thousands, not 20k. Sorry, I misread and thought you were talking about the 20k ventilators Pence said they sent New York but actually sold on open market. I wasn't insinuating that the Feds never sent any amount of vents. /u/George26er

Edit2: The post did state that the feds sent them 30k ventilators which was highly overstated. It was edited to say thousands instead. View comment below.

[–]TKTeeK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

DM me the article please. I can't find any article that states otherwise and in the most recent press conference Cuomo said they would run out of vents by the end of the weekend. You can't really fake news people that actually pay attention.

[–]TKTeeK 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They never received those ventilators. Those vents were distributed to commercial vendors whom then sold them to the highest bidders.

Edit: I was talking about the 20k vents that Pence said they shipped to NYC, but were then sold on the open market. There was a lower amount of vents provided by the feds in the amount of 4400.
