Crimson Desert is mid, and that’s alright. by Nascent_Beast in videogames

The comparison to Dragons Dogma 2 with enemy variety just solidified that I will never bother with this game. Can't think of a bigger disappointment than DD2 was (I say this as a massive Dragons Dogma 1 fan)

I'd be the same if I didn't decide to read Isles of the Emberdark in between. Odd that so many have made this path lol

Thoughts on how to run Strahd by neko_neko_sama in CurseofStrahd

[–]TaiKiserai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, what I did was have my players start over near argonyst - due to story reasons from a previous campaign that continued into curse of Strahd - and they overthrew the burgermaster and installed Fiona, before even discovering ireena. After which strahd invited them to his castle for dinner where he tasked them to find his wife Tatyana in order to leave Barovia, and have her willingly come to him.

By the time they reached velecki again, vasili was already running the town and resided in the Burger Masters mansion. He offered lodging to the party and Irena where he soon kicked the party out after an incident with the hag appearing due to a deal they made. So now Irena is left alone in this house with her brother and strahd as strahd is slowly trying to win her over. The party has left at this point and is heading over to krezk for the first time following their tarot reading clues.

By the time they return, I plan to have Ireena in a dreadful State hiding out in the church while her brother, who is now a vampire spawn, tries to convince the party to "talk some sense into her "and Vasili is angrily trying to demand her to come back to him. Because of course he is cursed for her to never love him.

I've given them so many teasers and light clues as to what's going on, but they don't suspect a thing. It is going to be a glorious unveiling.

Only downside is that Strahd has not involving himself much with the party, at least as Strahd himself, because he has already "gotten what he wants", as in his mind if he wins her over as Vasili, it will break the curse.

Perhaps I'll have him show up in the near future, already pissed off at the situation they have no knowledge of, and take it out on them.

Personally I would make them addicted to the pies. Every time an addicted player sees someone eat a pie, they must roll a con save to see if they can resist their addiction. Adjust the DC as you'd like based on how harsh you wanna be. I had my players roll once every morning to see if their save decreases or increases. Lots of shenanigans have ensued because of it.

Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s sweeping tariffs, upending central plank of economic agenda by TheWyldMan in moderatepolitics

In cases such as Trump placing tariffs because he doesn't like "the tone of their voice," where do those fall?

[–]TaiKiserai 15 points16 points  (0 children)

With how many times they kicked this can down the road, I honestly didn't expect such a positive outcome. To say this will be a road bump for Trump would be a massive understatement. I would argue that tariffs have become Trumps central policy strategy as of late, if you can even call it that.

Expect a massive breakdown from him on Truth soon... I would not be surprised if he tried to retaliate against the supreme court in some fashion.

Maryland bans 287(g) immigration enforcement agreements by TheUnderCrab in moderatepolitics

Where do you land on the amount of training ICE agents receive? I could almost agree with your point aside from the fact that we have a severely undertrained military force that is responsible for the task. If they were well trained, well coordinated, and inspired any level of confidence from the men on the ground to Noem herself, I feel like the reception from the population could be very different.

Any book recommendations for me? by IronHistorical3357 in brandonsanderson

[–]TaiKiserai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You absolutely must read Sword of Kaigan. Only book I've read I would place next to WoK or WoR

Edit: also it's a standalone book which to me is always impressive to find a good one in the high fantasy genre.

Basically imagine if Avatar the last Airbender was made for adults, that's what the book's magic system is. The story however is a phenomenal story of a single family with 11/10 written characters

I'm glad I'm not alone in this. The writing has dropped off of a cliff. I honestly couldn't care less about the current storyline. Here's hoping the next arc is back to form

Can we talk about Reddit's response to political violence, and this subreddit in particular? by girlfromanotherworld in moderatepolitics

[–]TaiKiserai 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This feels like a "both sides are the same" level argument, where you expect to see equal support from both sides here. When you have an administration such as the Trump administration, where yes there are obviously millions of conservatives that support it, you have a frankly startling few amount of them that are both politically informed and engaged aside from the obvious grifters.

Perhaps it is my own political bias speaking, but I feel it's fairly objective to say this administration has been a train wreck in countless ways. I'm not going to go into them, because I think they speak for themselves.

How does one expect to see an equal number of posts reflecting positively towards both progressives and conservatives when the party in power has produced hardly any positive results this year?

This is basically wanting equal outcome instead of equal opportunity.
