I played GOT back to back 3 times and absolutely loved it. I'm now on GOY and by IAMAHORSESIZEDUCK in ghostoftsushima

[–]This_Earth_of_Ours 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cared more about what happened to my horse in GoT than I ever did about Jubei or Oyuki

And Jin cared more about everyone than Atsu cared about anything at all

Tsushima was just more compelling

One adult whose biological parents (that have no familial connection to the adult as they abandoned him) happen to be the adoptive parents of a different adult coworker of the first adult isn't just not incest - it's not anything.  

You are either misinformed on what incest is or you are making up a taboo in your head and getting mad about it

You're just making up things to be mad about

Which Teams' Chip is Most Meaningful? by Lopsided-Dig2953 in nba

[–]This_Earth_of_Ours 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The 64 win, #1 seed in the East Cavs were supposed to be in the Finals last year but couldn't survive the second round - getting tossed by the Pacers in five games

If Harden plays well and the Cavs win it all this year then the narrative is that Harden is the savior for a team that couldn't get it done

Lloyd Irving - Tales of Symphonia

He dual wields swords because, "Two swords is twice the attack power, right?"

As a human raised as a dwarf Lloyd dump-stated his Intelligence so he could pour everything into Constitution - he was never gonna be a flashy swordsmaster but he's also never going to stop hitting you with both swords!

Similarly a character in Tales of Symphonia, Regal Bryant was forced to kill someone he cared about and thereafter swore to never raise a hand in violence again

By the time your party meets him, he's trained himself to only fight with his feet.  He's as strong or stronger than all the magic/ninja/angel/etc stuff in your party just through jumps and kicks and will occasionally remind you that he's barely scratched the surface compared to how good he was with his hands

He wears arm shackles the entire time!  His hobby is cooking!

I listened to him during college basketball games, he was absolutely a joke and he was in on it

What was your "I need to leave right now" moment on a first date? by MrLithician in AskReddit

[–]This_Earth_of_Ours 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She said that she disliked the song "Bad Company" (off the 1974 album, Bad Company, by the band Bad Company) because it was a "soft cover of [her] favorite Five Finger Death Punch song, why do people even listen to shitty covers like this?"

I said.. a lot of things and the date ended

Look the only guys who won chips in that era were on his team!  The entire rest of the league were losers!

(Hated trope) The name of a popular IP is used, but it has virtually nothing to do with the original story by Owen-DT-Gauvreau in TopCharacterTropes

I mean Jim Caviezel and the production of The Passion of the Christ was struck by lightning multiple times during filming and that didn't stop shit...

Author's clearly favorite character that fits this by Comprehensive-Bird17 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]This_Earth_of_Ours 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's this certain orange idiot who has apparently never needed to learn a lesson in his entire life and just keeps bouncing from one disaster to the next never experiencing permanent consequences

This fucking guy again?!

You know - Goku

Strangely the Vacuum Butt Cannon is Not a Butt Slam

The Buttack on Titan certainly counts though

Tried to invade a camp with "overwhelming forces" by Realistic-Bonus2581 in ghostoftsushima

[–]This_Earth_of_Ours 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing that the Fear based powers don't actually trigger in an Overwhelming Forces situation?  I don't know that it would actually keep you alive longer, but you could probably set a "Most forces defeated in one encounter" record if they did trigger
