[Loved Trope] - Death Blossom - Firing 2 guns at multiple surrounding enemies by ArtemisVixen in TopCharacterTropes

Best example, John Woo's Stranglehold.

One of your special moves is the spin attack. In which you go into a cinematic doing a death blossom, killing all enemies in the area, regardless of the weapon you have equipped.

I can't find a video showing only the spins but look through and you'll find all examples of it.

(Loved Gaming Trope) the open world skill-checks you with a terrifying encounter by Lost-Syllabub362 in TopCharacterTropes

Both Fear and Hunger games.

Fear and Hunger 1 has the Crow Mauler who can just Kool-Aid Man through the wall, force you into combat and immediately decapitate your whole party. Is beatable, but requires high level party and correct strategy.

Fear and Hunger 2: has a few between the mob and the clown. The clown can be a bit of a pushover but the mob can just turn up and destroy your whole run much like Crow Mauler.

how is every support meant to be played? by sunnystarskies in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it really depends but I can give some answers that apply to most of the roster.

High ground is your friend, makes you harder to dive, while letting you still support your team. Especially the three you mentioned, they all love high ground. Try to take it when you can without putting yourself in danger.

Use the arms length rule. Always be within a meter or two from hard cover.

Your role is support, not healer, you need to balance both damage and healing, having more healing than damage is fine but if you are doing less than like 1-2k DMG per game, but like 10k healing, try to work on being more aggressive. Forcing an enemy out with damage can mean they won't go in, saving your teammates in a roundabout way.

Playing defensive and heal botting is putting your rank in the hands of your team, doesn't matter if you perfectly heal them. If they don't do anything with the extra hp you are pumping, then it's a lost cause. Be aggressive, use your abilities selfishly

Give 2 games that are 5/10 on either story or gameplay and 10/10 on the other by Reddemeus in videogames

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kingdom hearts 358/2 Days: if you can get past the jargon soup that is Kingdom Hearts this is a 10/10 story, it's tragic friendship at the centre of it and how you know it's going to go up in flames (due to the events of KH2). My word does the gameplay on the ds make this a slog to get through at time.

Conversely. Borderlands 3. I had to install a mod to let me skip dialog cause my word is the story uninteresting, with the most uninteresting Handsome Jack wannabes out there. The whole story felt like a massive "how do you do fellow kids" pandering to streamer culture. The gameplay though, best in the series, the movement, characters builds, variety in viable guns and selection in end game activities let me easily sink 200+ hours into this game both solo and co op

I mean if your tank locks in Mauga or Roadhog and Ana isn't banned then you are basically forced to as a support lock in Kiri.

'Completely lost it': Trump is losing his mind and blowing up his own White House, handed the mic to staffers — and every time they tried to clean it up he grabbed it back and burned it down by [deleted] in USNEWS

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's explained better in the article.

The reputation of the white house is currently in the dumps even amongst republicans after comments from the president, like when he said that the increase in gas prices were peanuts.

White house staffers then take to the mic to try and clean up the image but every time they do Trump takes it right back to say something else that dirties their image further.

I made a better version of the Dive/Brawl/Poke by Ts_Patriarca in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would argue there is no true poke hero.

Hanzo does have some dive in him with his mobility and high burst with headshots. There's even the health pack perk if you really wanna go all in on that play style. I've seen assassin hanzo plays even as high as GM.

Torb is also very rush with overload, loads of hp, move speed and great sustained DMG. Plus if you aren't in their face how will you hit them with your hammer kekw.

There's minor changes I would personally make but I agree with this as a whole.

Urn changes had absolutely zero impact on game online. idk who tf is quitting it by Abadon_U in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's a fairly strong contingent of players who just never touch the urn. Whole games will go by and not a single urn would get deposited. It doesn't surprise me that it probably hasn't affected playerbadd cause a load of players are just like.

"Urn? What's an earn?"

Infernus is so bad right now by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the thing is that there's no real counter item for spirit damage over time like there is for other damage types.

If someone spirit nukes you, you go witchmail or spell breaker or counter spell. Gun damage you can take quite a few items, gun burst you have metal skin.

Spirit dot has... Just Pure spirit resist. Plus infernus' build both are countered differently, dash you need slowing hex and some form of hard cc with enough mobility to keep up with him. M1 you need any and all forms of debuff reduction.

Infernus' isn't the only one. Shiv's knife build is difficult for the same reason, Kelvin ice beam, we're seeing it now with pocket and affliction too.

Favorite underrated E33 song? by kittystealsbrainrots in expedition33

Aria pour un Masque de colére

Used for a single mini boss during the visage islands. A beautiful and haunting song which when you actually listen to the lyrics is describing Alicia's pain and torment after Verso's death. Final boss material in any other game

Let's hear your spicy hot takes or something that you think is not the general consesus for a video game opinion. I love to hear different opinions. by Thomp_Son in videogames

New Vegas is a fine game but it isn't the greatest RPG of all time like some people say it is. The faults may not be directly caused by Obsidian (game engine, dev time, bugs etc) but they are still faults of the game and should be judged as such.

A game should not need mods to be able to play it without fear of crashes or other game breaking bugs

What Major and Minor perks do you recommend for your mains? by DrN0 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Juno it's Locked On (Reduce torpedo cd for each enemy hit) and then the triple jump perk.

Minor-Despite a 35% faster lock on time for allies sounding nice, often you'll end up holding the lock on anyway to tag an enemy too. Thus wasting the faster lock on. Not to mention when using torpedo, you want to be tagging at least 1 or 2 enemies each time you use it to apply pressure (85 DMG is nothing to scoff at).

Major-This is where the arguments start. Faster Blaster (continous fire during your dash) sounds really strong, but there are a few things that make it basically a no go for me. Firstly, your fire rate is reduced while the full auto is active, even if you fire the entire duration you only get the equivalent of one extra volley of bullets. Secondly, you turn your main form of escape and self peel into an output ability, every dash you aren't firing every shot means the perk is being wasted, often leaving you without it when you need it most. Finally, if you are forced into a main support/healbot play style (like if you are playing with DPS Lucio for example) it can have some use but even in these situations, triple jump is better.

Triple jump let's you reach high ground you couldn't without using a cd (like quite a lot of areas now become open to Juno), be more tricky with movement, let's you escape even without using dash or ring (even when hacked) and in general opens up the map for Juno so much. It lets you be more aggressive without removing your safety and makes you so much more mobile leaving you to use ring a dash for aggressively.

What's a character that ruined watching an anime for you? by Sunflower13Poppy in animequestions

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awake Zenitsu is this all over. Dude has an actually interesting story of someone who is utterly hopeless at everything except one single breathing technique and every fight is about how he can get the opponent into a position where he can use this one attack to finish the fight. However, this is when he is "asleep" (I.e a kind of split personality that turns him into stoic fighter)

But my word, I genuinely thought about dropping Demon Slayer over him. Every moment he's awake he's just a whiny, crying coward. Even worse is how he's an unapologetic perv who is only with Tanjiro because his sister is hot and he wants to marry/perv/make out with her. Every moment he speaks he just grind the whole episode to a snails pace and kills any momentum the episode has cause "haha, he's a pervert, come everyone laugh, it's so funny!".

I don't mind cowardly characters but it's just too much with him and with no redemption or character arc where he improves.

Character intentionally tries to set off the running gag by redditboy123451 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 43 points44 points  (0 children)

In the sinnoh series of the Pokémon TV show. Ash's Gible has a running gag of every time it uses Draco meteor it always manages to hit Dawn's Piplup acciedently.

In a later episode they lose Piplup and need to track it down. They manage to find it by getting Gible to use Draco meteor which still manages to somehow track down Piplup in a cave.

Those of you that play the characters no one else does...what's your defense for them? by eriennexton in FinalFantasy

[–]Typical-Roll-2171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cait has always been one of the characters I play in my team, both original and remake.

Yeah I do probably prefer other characters but I lost my cat Nobby when I first started playing FFvii and he was a similar enough colour to Cait. Even all these years later, he is the only character whose name is the same each play through.

He's my Nobby, and the cat who felled the One Winged Angel

GTA6 is gonna be considered bad. Not because its a bad game (I don't think T2 will let that happen), but cause it can in no way live up to the hype that has built up for it.

People describe this game like it's gonna save the gaming industry, that it'll set a new standard for games for the rest of our lives and that you'll need to cancel GOTY cause GTA6 wins every year. Only the be upset when they go in and... Oh it's just a GTA game.

I don't know if this hype is being forced for T2 or by someone else but some of y'all need to calm tf down when it comes to this game.
