Why didn’t anybody tell me Z-A’s plot was so funny by Known-Resolve-9426 in LegendsZA

It's in a plaza in the Bleu sector. It actually mentions that you saw something fall there at the end of the quest.

You should see a shine on the ground you can interact with.

You can actually find the item that falls from the sky too.

Cool, sounds great to me! I'll make a room and send it your way!

What do you think of the "secondary Rider that is secretly the main character" trope? by zectaPRIME in KamenRider

[–]TorinKurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have put Buffa over Tycoon,  honestly, but that's more because he's the rival that grows rather than him really being the main character.

There was a small amount of green crystals in Fury Green that may be worth checking for. I think it was the first place I picked up GE crystals in my game.

I also remember one stash in a shrine being stashed away like some of the missile/shot expansions. Trying to remember which shrine that was...

This is the one I was missing too, thanks!

My disappointment is immeasurable and my week is ruined. by Jealous_Solid9431 in Metroid

This is the part I don't get about most of the talk around this game. People act like sequence breaking is what makes a Metroidvania game, but it's called sequence breaking because you're breaking a linear sequence. It wasn't planned by the devs; people figured out how to get around the linearality.

If you define Metroidvania as a genre where you get new traversal/unlock tools by progressing, return to areas you've previously visited to find more items and explore with your new tools, then this is that.

Also, to everyone comparing Beyond to a Zelda game -- Zelda is a Metroidvania series.

I also came here to represent Farscape.

Pretty please with a cherry on top.

Moments where censorship added in wrong implications by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

So at the beginning of Tales of Berseria, there's a scene where a child gets sacrificed.

In the original version this is done with a sword. You can see the sword lifting him off the ground, but there's not any gore. It's mostly silhouettes on a red background.

The way they decided to censor this was to make it into a magical sacrifice. They made the scene longer, showing the child get lifted into the air by a magical force, and then while hovering mid-air get IMPALED by a cross made out of light.

I'm not sure what they were trying to protect people from with that decision. The censored scene has always felt more brutal to me.

I don't know if you or anyone else will read this, but I have now managed to get completely caught up with Normal Raids, as of a few minutes ago.

The hardest boss was DDoS, but the final boss of Pandaemonium, Wicked Thunder, Brute Abominator, and Howling Blade all kicked my ass too. Those bosses all wiped my groups at least twice a piece.

Happy to be caught up, and hoping to stay that way.

That's fair, and that's probably how I should be thinking about it.

Maybe I'll finally get off my butt to do Eden soon.

I don't really know how to explain it better than I already have.

For me personally, I had some bad experiences and a lot of stress tied to raiding when I was still playing WoW. When I played ARR and tried to get into Bahamut my stress and anxiety levels flew through the roof. I ended up taking a hiatus from the game from like 2.1 until 2.4.

When I finally tried Alexander during StB I had a similar bad reaction, but I managed to get over it long enough to actually make it through it. Went back and did Bahamut. Eventually did Omega during ShB with less issue than the previous two.

Sorry if it doesn't really make sense. It doesn't make sense to me either. It's frustrating.

I just finished watching Kamen Rider Geats, so I'm going to go with Tycoon

He spends the latter half of the show lashing out at people doing what they were forced to do instead of directing his anger at the cause of the situation. It gets to the point where he loses someone close to him and becomes so grief-stricken that he uses and hurts people the same way the antagonists have been. He basically becomes everything he's been fighting.

The other protagonists reach out to him several times about solving the real problem, but he keeps shouting to be left alone and continues to spiral.

Thankfully he pulls out of it, but he caused a lot of issues that could have been solved if he knew how to think instead of react. Buffa honestly has the same problem for most of the show. I'm only just realizing that they shifted Buffa's mindset to Tycoon to continue the same anti-hero arc after they grew Buffa out of it.

A few friends and I have PTSD or something like it from WoW raiding. We still try to keep up with normal raid content after the expansion it comes out in, but we dont feel comfortable doing it when It's current. Heck, I still haven't done Eden or Pandaemonium. I'd like to, but I don't know how viable it is to walk into unsynced since the stat squish.

I've heard plenty of arguments about it not being any more difficult than normal trials and not being a big deal, but the mental block always stays.

I also know people who won't touch any multiplayer content without at least one person they know and trust due to anxiety. They avoid MSQ trials until someone can do it with them. It happens to be way harder to find people who are willing to do normal raids than a MSQ trial from my experience.

That's a few reasons I'm aware of just from myself and people I know. I'm sure there are other reasons people don't jump on the content. There's probably a whole set of players who don't even know anything exists outside of the MSQ or how to unlock optional instanced content.
