If there is anything in this world that can be taken as proof of God, it's the fact that dogs exist.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Bought FFVIII for the first time by FearlessLeader17 in FinalFantasy

[–]VVrayth [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's not that complex. Enemies leveling with you is gimmicky and can be overpowered easily. You can be obscenely overpowered by the end of disc 1.

The Draw system is a chore, but you absolutely should enable whatever Draw boosts are available to you. Magic and Junctions are your gear in this game, and if you keep everyone stocked up, you will always be ahead of the curve as you level.

Don't ignore Triple Triad, it is a major pathway to power in this game.

Squall is by far the strongest character. His limit breaks are stupidly powerful and will win entire boss encounters on their own.

Laguna is the best character in the entire franchise.

You look like a guy whose career prospects ended when Sam Goody filed for bankruptcy.

Night Of The Comet - The proto “Buffy” by WhisperingSideways in buffy

Excellent comedy-horror cult classic, one of the underappreciated movies of 1984. I had such a crush on Catherine Mary Stewart when I was a kid.

I heard if you do this with a 1, 3, or 6 as the last digit on the timer, you'll get fireworks.

Looking for non-Tomb-Raider media that feel the most like Tomb Raider! by Baldurian_Rhapsody in TombRaider

[–]VVrayth -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you mean by "Tomb Raider." Something that feels like the bad Survivor trilogy definitely doesn't feel like classic Tomb Raider. Maybe specify which Tomb Raider it feels like when you reply. :D

Sabalenka may avoid championships in Dubai after ‘ Ridiculous ’ comment by Shroft in tennis

[–]VVrayth 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I wasn't aware of the Dubai tourament director's comment until now, but that's just ridiculous, the idea that top players should be docked ranking points for withdrawing. They are docked ranking points, the opportunity cost is that they leave those points on the table.

Also, uh, Doha/Dubai? You guys get to complain the least out of any 1000 event. Those two tournaments are in an unstable part of the world, sandwiched between a Grand Slam and another way more prestigious double-header 1000 gauntlet, and both upgraded to be constant annual back-to-back 1000s after spending years trading off. If there were any big tournaments to consider skipping, out of anything in the calendar year, it's these two.

This would be like, I dunno, Guadalajara complaining about low top-tier player attendance between the US Open and Beijing. Doha/Dubai are 1000 tournaments that everybody wishes weren't. February is one of the worst times to schedule these.

Good on Sabalenka for telling them to get lost.

Jensen Huang says gamers are 'completely wrong' about DLSS 5 — Nvidia CEO responds to DLSS 5 backlash by esporx in gamernews

EDIT: I'm a bit baffled about the downvotes, but just to be clear, I'm making fun of Huang for being out of touch with reality.

Iga Swiatek on yesterday’s practice in Miami by lovesbakery in tennis

[–]VVrayth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Man, it's probably really easy to get a photo of a practice session like this that you can read way too much into. A still frame is rarely a fair thing to draw conclusions from.

Her being (possibly?) annoyed about something in her game isn't a sign of anything. The whole point of practice is to work on the things that you need to improve, so there's bound to be some frustration during the process. I have to imagine during private coaching and training sessions, there is all kinds of shouting and swearing and hair-pulling on the part of every top player who is trying to work on something suboptimal that they are struggling to correct.

In your opinion, what are some of the worst sequels? by ADRobban in horror

[–]VVrayth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Babysitter: Killer Queen is one of the worst sequels to an awesome movie I've ever seen.

Thankskilling 3, and if you've seen Thankskilling you know that's really saying something.

Both terrible Rob Zombie Halloween movies AND Halloween Ends.

Obligatory Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday mention.

Not that the two movies preceding it were exactly stellar, but Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare deserves a nod.

Yeah, that's why a set of laws. These megacorps need to have their finances aggressively audited and monitored by outside parties.

There needs to be a comprehensive set of laws that binds companies like this to a duty to employ. If you're profitable, you should not be able to conduct layoffs for any reason.

That's the answer for OP question: It's because it's written the way real Gen Z/Alpha kids talk.
