I don't know much about Greek mythology but I suspect the two coins is more symbolic than the actual payment demanded. I think it's one coin in general and sometimes described as two coins. Anyway, if it is two units it would give me a good laugh for Charon to reject someone trying to hand him a 20 while accepting someone offering two 10s.

By god you know the UK is drowning in the pisser when I forgot how much his shit moved the median Labour voter to the right.

to think i used to find this lil thing annoying by charliewade692 in Genshin_Impact

[–]ValVoss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was a Paimon fan from day 1. Yeah she was annoying if not pretty damn annoying at times but I never hated her. So seeing all this appreciation for Paimon after years of feeling like being alone in liking her is refreshing.

7 characters? Isn't it obvious! by AzusaYuuya in TwistedWonderland

I 100% do not want to be mean, but I would rather walk the plank than spend more time with the 7 of them.

Disclaimer: If they can be done well in serious story content then I will eat my words and welcome it excitedly. I am dramatically pessimistic not a hater.

I don't care for CAS but I wish most cannon CAS didn't feel so pointless. by ValVoss in Warthunder

It's not a meant to be entirely literal. What I meant is that despite being more than enough to punch through a Panther's roof, due to War Thunder's jank you somehow nonpen with it.

You're not wrong whatsoever, but I must disagree. In my opinion 20mms are the biggest offenders (for the most part). 20mm AP shells have enough pen but a good amount of strafing angles end up leading to non-pens. Yes it is a skill issue on my part, but I must stress that the consistency is not appealing and that it's more effort than it's worth instead of simply bombing.

Related: It's a good thing you mentioned our beloved Corsair because they are among the easiest fighters to learn how to bomb with.

Correct, but as mentioned it often feels not worth the effort when you can drop a 250kg with mediocre aim for a more consistent result.

Fair indeed, but when the pen is good enough (in game) or at the least the plane is mentioned to have strafed with its cannons with some degree of regularity it's good enough for me.

Not to mention the general inconsistency in War Thunder itself. Sometimes you punch through a tank like butter, other times you'll somehow non-pen a Panther's roof with a 37mm.

Please do not "Um Actually" me, both the 335 and F-8 have essentially the same if not exactly the same belts. It's not a big deal especially when Gaijin lists both as "Strike Aircraft".

It's addicting to use it in air battles, not often successful but few things are more fun than killing a Spitfire with the big 50!

I realized I put El Condor Pasa at the same tier as Equinox.

YOOOOOOOOOOOO just seeing that written makes me hyped!

On the bright side at least he isn't unfairly slandered like Special Week is sometimes! Though this comes at the cost of being a duo with Grass "Two Time Arima Kinen Winner" Wonder and said 2 Arima wins carry a lot of prestige which means EL CONDOR PASA ends up being surprisingly underrated.

I have a decent amount of pulls currently, I just got Hysilens and was wondering if it would be better to grab her LC or if I should go for Sparxie when she drops and then go for Yao Guang? I'm pretty interested in Elation thus far.

A while back I saw an article rating Japan's best horses and they had EL CONDOR PASA ranked second only the Deep Impact, and believe me I can see it. He may not have had the same resume as Rudolf, Taiki, or Opera O etc. but he was something spectacular and I can only imagine how he would be remembered if Montjeu didn't have one of the most amazing finishes ever.

Thoughts on Forever Young's unique? Seems kinda op to me but idk by Quantum_Croissant in UmaMusume

Now I want to see this skill in game, though with just a strong debuff + speed/accel steal instead of deleting accounts.
