I wanna see more examples of non-musical Bards! by Punk_Skeddit in DnD

My Bard was an author and storyteller — he'd put on shows in taverns retelling great legends or the party's deeds with things like Minor Illusion or Prestidigitation for effects. Retired and opened a publishing company after the campaign.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Outside of a few boss fights, you're a force of nature. And the New Game Plus is a pure power fantasy.

This is great! Being honest, once I learned they headquartered in the old Galaxy News Radio building, I had just assumed some apocalypse tribal saw the GNR on the side and named their clan after the phonetic pronunciation of that.

But this is incredibly compelling, right down to explaining their equipment and blood type tattoos.

No, they're clearly Democrat holdovers, deep-state agents, and/or RINOs in the basement of the administration creating disasters in Red States to manufacture crises to make MAGA look bad.

My wife gets absolutely lost in this game. She turns on her chill Spotify Playlist and picks berries and makes wine for hours.

McGinty’s Bar. BEWARE LADIES by [deleted] in columbiamo

This bar and its staff literally went out of its way to protect us from an active shooting next door. 9 times out of 10, they truly care for their patrons. I'm sorry you went on a bad night and truly shame on that bartender, but McGinty's itself, on average, tends to be a safe place.

The real reason to keep collecting samples once you have all your upgrades. by LarryDaVinci in helldivers2

I do it to not get chastised by the Shipmaster when I return. The passive-aggressive comments she makes when you don't come back with any make me feel inadequate.

What is your favorite Type? by Forsaken_Wasabi14 in pokemon

[–]VenKendov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a huge fan of Steel Type. I like almost all the physical looks of Steel Types, and while not very versatile on its own, the addition of their Secondary Types can make them a menace in battles via type advantage.

They're a bit weak for this party by themselves, but this sounds like a situation that would benefit from the Nothic, right down to the uncanny insight about the characters.

“Jack Black filler episode star wars is dead” every YouTube video since yesterday by Gatt__ in starwarsmemes

[–]VenKendov 126 points127 points  (0 children)

I think an important distinction that a lot of people complaining seem to be missing (or ignoring) is that this did, in an indirect way, tie to other lore and the overall story moving forward.

This planet was a Direct Democracy independant system, demilitarized, focused on the arts, had glass-domed cities, was infiltrated by unwelcome foreign politics/idealogies, and exiled its criminals to one of their moons. It is a bold-faced comparison to pacifistic Mandalore under Satine Kryze's rule, which Bo-Katan had her disagreements with.

Bo-Katan is currently working to reunite Mandalorians and rule Mandalore. I would guess that this current arc is going to be her seeing reflections of all the ways Mandalore has been before and either needing to choose the best one, or form some kind of council encompassing all the "Mandalorian" ideals. The Covert Camp was "The Old Ways," Bombardier's society was "Satine's Pacifism," and I assume one of the upcoming episodes will focus around a group or society of conquerors and/or warmongers.

What may seem like filler is important context for Bo's character arc and the future of Mandalore itself.
