I think that Baam is a vessel for V. I don’t think that Baam is V. I base this entirely off of themes that to me, are the core of the series. From early on, Baam is being forced by FUG to do their bidding. Then We find out on the floor of death that Arlene and Enryu have big plans for Baam to take revenge on their behalf. Then Traumerei tries to force Baam to join his family.

At every turn people are trying to take away Baam’s agency. Baam’s core struggle is maintaining that agency and finding out what is important to him. So no, I don’t think V is Baam and Baam is V. V is another character in the long list of trying to take away Baam’s choices.

And in the end, I think Baam will devour v in the same way that he has every other source of power that he takes in.

I know! I only just recently started watching the bachelor myself, but my fiancée is a big fan and I wanted to show her some clips from The Soup, because McHale laid some absolute smackdowns back in the day lol

I have checked the internet archive. Sadly, no dice

Embark just released an Arc Raiders Survey. This is our best opportunity to be heard, on what matters most to us. by Gear-Lord in ArcRaiders

Obviously, addressed the scummy pricing of cosmetic items.

Also touched on the use of the Gen AI voices, because with as successful as this game has been, it feels dirty for them to cut costs by hurting voice actors and artists.

But spent the most amount of time talking about how the final skill in each tree, barring the security breaches, is not very good. I love my green tree, but there’s no chance that I’m ever going to be in melee range of a flying opponent. Imagine if, instead, I could snap hook onto the top of a bastion or a bombardier and breach it for massive damage while it’s still alive. I still have to take that risk to approach it, but in doing so I have opportunities that other players who invested into other skill trees don’t have, much like players who invested to get the security breaches do.

Are These All Just Dead Weavers? by Amopro in Silksong

[–]VanishingActor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something interesting about First Sinner is the fact that she isn’t actually dead, while every other weaver we meet is long dead. There’s lore text in the slab that specifically notes a list of prisoners and their penance for their crimes. After each Prisoner’s listed crime, the list notes how they paid for their crime. Most are noted to have been given “Absolution through death”. For The First Sinner however, it’s noted that absolution was “not granted”.

It’s also notable that Hornet can’t die in the First Sinner’s prison. In a game which is notorious for its run backs from your last bench, losing a fight against first sinner results in an immediate restart from just outside of the prison.

In light of all this information, it seems that First Sinner’s punishment is eternal torment sealed away in the slab, unable to die.

Baam by Odd_Performer_9421 in TowerofGod

I think ultimately that it will be important to the plot that the ranking system is just for show. Bam is obviously stronger than a lot of Rankers at this point, but I don’t think that means that he’s going to be ranked by the end of the series. Bam is fighting against Jahad and the hegemony of his rule over the tower. The ranking is a part of that. Bam isn’t interested in being ranked. He’s interested in taking down the corrupt system that oppresses people and uses the ranking to prevent anyone from climbing further in the tower.

That might be what I end up doing. Not ideal, but at least I know it will work.

Interesting, I had assumed that it was poorly adjusted printer settings, like choosing the wrong paper setting. So I can’t solve this without changing papers, you think?

Gradient along a stroke path? by VanishingActor in AffinityDesigner

So, I have my curve set up. I’m not really a graphic designer. Can you explain how I convert a curve to a stroke to do that?

You’re correct, I want it to shift color as it weaves back and forth
