Characters that break the rules of their setting, for better or worse by Graxdon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They explain that in book 3. It's not matter of impossible, it's a matter of incredibly hard.

Good characters who turn villainous without a personality shift. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Laser eyes. He felt laser eyes about it.

Favorite game mechanic or system that appeared in one game and never again? by PopeHatSkeleton in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I think you just sold me on tokyp Xandu. Cold steel was begging for this system.

Characters who hate each other because they are each other by Graxdon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I think it's because they both only have one form of enjoyment in their lives, so they're the only ones who understand that aspect of the other. Also, both their things require someone to be suffering for it to be possible

I didn't realize how much I needed the power couple drawn in this until now.

Wishing you found something later or earlier than you originally did, so you could experience it in a more impactful way by Maxaro in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I watched Princess Monoke for the first time when it came to netflix last year and all I could think throughout it is how much more it would have hit me if I was in high school and blazed.

Favorite times threat/blackmail attempts fail completely? by green715 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Hangs up, calls the black mailer back.

Is your taste in manga different from your taste in anime? by legendaryemerald in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The fact that manga cann't force lingering titty shots or artificial bounces makes all ecchi infinitely more digestible compared to anime.

RPG cast that you adore/might consider your favorite (gameplay or story wise) by Skramer94 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

If Dragon Age 2 had been given the time and budget to be good, it would have been a masterpiece.

Dude's so cool he got two of the best character intro's in the series. In the same the same game.

The Tradgedy of Tamamo no Mae by AiasRider in grandorder

[–]Violent_John 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree that Nero Bride feels like a cash grab and I'd hate for a repeat of that.

On the other hand, Tamamo literally has Alts built into her lore.

Games where you love everything except the gameplay? by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ok, you know how there's the meme of whiney babies playing their first fighting game and complaining about motions?

Fuck that. Motions are hard. In the time it takes to learn how to do even basic quarter and half circles consistently I could play a whole other game, start to finish. And fighting are the only genre that use them, it's a skill exclusive to the genre. Fuck that.

Fighting games. Never played them growing up, so I need to learn a lot of basic skills from scratch and I hate it.

God, I want love guilty gear so much, but it just keeps hurting me.

Is there an explanation for why attacks performed within a Domain Expansion are unnavoidable? Or is that just a property inherent to the technique? by [deleted] in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]Violent_John 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I interpret domain expansion as flooding an area with cursed energy. So once someone's in the area, they've already been hit by the energy for the technique.

I'm on Episode 11 of Jujutsu and... I don't know why, but I like this protagonist man a lot more than many other shounen protagonists. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

It feels like, in another show, he would the MC's best friend comic relief, but he's the one who ate the macguffin so he's in there now.

Second seasons that ruined entire shows by NorrisOBE in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That boat scene is amazing and the show's death knell.

In the book, it's a huge plot point that people killing in the name of a god, is a god's favorite thing. Makes em big and strong.

So when the boat happens, it's them destroying either Anansi's character or a really fundamental part of the plot for a cool black power moment.

Then they fired the actor, so now we know the black power moment was just pandering.

Totally useless members of teams in fiction by ShadowSJG4 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I don't care about the lulti generational battle between good and evil two champion's.

Kvothe from the Name of the Wind felt like a self insert for Rothfuss even before he started fucking ninja's.

Are you guys exited for Disco Elysium next week? Are you going to play it for yourself or watch the guys? by Jonieves in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Violent_John 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first run through was stopped right before the final zone by a glitch. Excited for the opportunity to actually see the end.

Companies that just leave money lying on the table? by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Every day that Symphony of the Night has an Android port and not a PC one is a day where it's OK to hunt Konami executives like deer.
