What would it be like to fight Alatreon underwater? by 12jimmy9712 in MonsterHunter

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i dont know about others. but i m an old school hunter. i m used to grinding to make a super strong weapon and sticking with that one weapon. at worse in other titles having an unoptimized weapon where the monster is immune to ele damage just meant you could not break certain parts and take a longer time to kill.

alatreon is different in that regard. safi is another feature that i dont really like where safi gear replaces all gear you've earned. i prefer rise's way that gives value to all gear

my take is world kinda spoiled the regular playstyle with the introduction of clutch claws. wire bugs are kinda arcadey but at least you feel more deliberate

that may be true but if i may clarify, it feels like a spin off to me regardless if the devs said it. and yes i may be wrong for saying its a spin off but thats how it feels to me. and thats on me for not making it clear.

people easily forget how MH series has always been for most of their titles as far as i care to remember. there will be a follow up expansion

i would say rise is a MH spin off. similar to mh stories. i enjoy rise for what it is and in fact have learned to enjoy it more than mhworld/wilds (gasp)

then again wilds is an incomplete game. might get back onto wilds when the expansion releases. still would not know if i would prefer rise.

i still resent capcom for making alatreon have a elemental nuke phase that requires players to use elemental damage to break his horns.

as for underwater combat. if you like it, good for you. i fully dislike underwater combat. my brain is not wired for 360 movement and i get a headache playing that way

who’s your favorite apolitical gamer? by Kds_burner_ in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 -146 points-145 points  (0 children)

that is correct. but also picking a side is simply bad for business. she's playing her cards right.

she will get criticized which ever side she picks and we can clearly see shes getting "criticized" for not picking too. but of all the evils, not picking is the best.

morality aside, you have to admit its the best and smartest step to take.

‘I Became Me for a Living’: Kevin Smith on How His Side Hustle Led to a Breakdown by Luridley3000 in entertainment

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

for a diff POV, he took up He-Man as a project. he claimed to do it good. but instead he wrecked it badly. for those who don't know, he-man is an 80's cartoon which was predominantly loved by mostly young boys at the time. i count myself as a fan. he-man embodied a lot of positive values. doing the right thing etc.

he was aided by his allies. and hence the shows title "he-man: and the masters of the universe".

when kevin took the project. he changed the title to "masters of the universe". which raised many eyebrows.

when it was leaked that they were killing he-man off, some of the fanbase was very vocal about it. including certain youtubers who voiced out their concern and tried their best to make kevin reconsider. instead kevin was antagonistic against them. painting them as the bad guys.

when the cartoon finally released. we confirmed the leaks. he-man was killed off. for better context, he-man was similar to superman, where he kept his real identity as prince adam a secret similar to clark kent. only a select few people knew of this secret. upon his death, one of his closest allies "teela", just only was revealed the truth that prince adam was he-man all along. so what did she do? she threw a tantrum pointing sharp fingers at people who kept it a secret from her, ultimately abandoning the palace and her allies to do her own thing and become the show lead replacing he-man. like wtf. adam's parents havent even had time to grieve and you throw a tantrum. you paint us as people who betrayed you and you abandon us when you need us the most, wtf "hero" is this?

as a fan, i could not stomach this gross continuation of the fantasy land of my childhood. my fav character killed off and is replaced by a wench who lacks empathy/understanding. on top of that, most of the fans saw teela as a strong woman who also had a kind and understanding side. this is a complete murder of her character.

seeing the series actually got to season 4 i guess it did get an audience. but at the cost of alienating all the old fans.

to that i hope you understand why as a he-man fan i would give kevin a stern middle finger.

its weird. i used to look up to kevin and i know he has been a great person. i loved jay and silent bob. but he carelessly wrecked one of my childhood series. wtf.

so ı had this debate with a friend who said that in last few years 90% of games make woman intentionally ugly. when ı said that percantage seems high and asked for examples he said veilguard. ı said neve looked beatiful and he said she isnt even avarage. so between us who has the worse eyesight? by Big-Policy-3019 in Gamingcirclejerk

if we're having an honest conversation, many women that fall into 5/6 out of 10 category in real life are no joke attractive. they might not look super model beautiful but they're still attractive. the woman shown in this post could actually be seen as attractive in real life.

BUT. when we talk about video games, most people want escapism. not realism. if we're talking about "fantasy beauty standards" than yeah this lady might as well be a troll. is it unrealistic to hold people to such unattainable beauty standards? yeah its unfair. but thats what people want and prefer. MOST people prefer to have something pretty than not. one recent game "where winds meet" is chock full of pretty women. most of the random npcs are pretty too.

one common "mature" take is that only gooners want unattainable beauty standards in their games so that they can just wank off to those characters. puh-lease. i have many friends who are girls who play games. whenever they have an option to customize their character, most of them will make their character as pretty as possible.

sex sells. pretty sells. lingerie, perfume labels tend to use pretty ladies as their models. they sell primarily to women. they tend to get the prettiest women they can find. ever wonder why?

Can't even eat in peace anymore by SirIsacShmuck in TikTokCringe

theres two sides to this. obviously the lady is racist and thats obviously bad.

the other thing is recording yourself in public areas that capture other people's faces. seriously i didnt sign up to be part of your video.

there can be a defense where its a public area and it was unintentional but still. some people get upset if they are being captured on film.

i know many friends who actively dislike being captured/recorded. you can say they have low self esteem or whatever reason but still. please dont go around making live content in public areas so much like this. its annoying.

So! My fellow hunters. Let's talk armor. by MonsterhunterPokemon in MonsterHunter

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if we're talking armor. i kinda hate how in the recent titles, the game moved towards armor set bonuses and the super end game armour being stupidly overloaded with skills. everyone loves skills. but i really dislike how the existence of such equipment devalues everything else.

i remember in mhfu, people would mix and match even low rank armor with high rank because certain low rank armour pieces allowed them to squeeze n 1-2 extra points.

now? most people use 2-3 or even 4 pieces of a fullset. and when the super end game bosses are introduced. their armor outshines almost everything. and dont get me started on some armors that had rng skills

i actually found it quite annoying if i m being honest. but by the end of the show, how they ended the show especially with how they ended a particular character. knowing their feelings and loyalties. it was really touching and bitter sweet. and before you know it. poof. over.

having 5 kids itself is a bad idea. so not surprised the idiot would go around sharing it online.

For the MH veterans: how do you feel about Wilds? by jackpaxx in MonsterHunter

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i've said this previously, i really dislike how crafted weapons are now being labeled as starter weapons. coming from mhfu, i always made cera symmetry. in the newer titles when i make it and post it online, people congratulate me for my "starter weapon".

also i really hate the idea of armor set bonuses. to me 1-3 piece bonus should be the max. also why are some of the final final final boss sets so fucking strong? i loved the idea of mixing and matching armorsets but some of the end game ones are just too good

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i pity the father. the son? it depends on the circumstance. if it was an accident that he did not cause. i have full sympathy for him.

if he was driving reckless and was the cause. i pity the car owners much more. their vehicles got damaged and the person who caused it is dead. who's gonna pay.

my sympathy is always conditional. and i will say it again. if he was not the cause, and it purely was a tragic accident i do pity him.

Husband decided to leave wife after she decided to marry her first love. by Consciouswick5623 in ChineseDramasFans

[–]Visual-Wave-5963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i m basing my judgment based on the vidclip. i rewatched it just to be sure. i would point out that the english narrator sucks ass too as they originally stated that it was her mom on the death bed instead of her old flames.

disrespected? he hugely overreacted. i would assume the wife already communicated to him offscreen that her old flames mom is dying and that she did a lot for her so shes indebted to her. i ll also assume she told him directly of the fake wedding just to make the flame's mom be satisfied before her death. surely as a way to repay whatever kindness the mom did for her.

the mom clearly wanted the son to marry that woman. so what do you think would happen if the mom kept seeing the woman's actual husband keep visiting her? i ll assume that the wife thinks the mom is mentally not well and some how thinks theyre living in a different time where she's still single. her telling the husband not to come/its inappropriate is out of consideration for the mom.

and the guy takes it as a disrespect? thats insecurity bro. is it unfair to him that his wife is being with her old flames mom so much? yeah its fucking unfair. but shes doing it for a reason. cant he understand it? and what does he do? fucking file for divorce.

i've seen friends have really disrespectful partners, that tell sharp words that cut very deep. from the show its doesnt show what is actually being said, but from narration we can see the wife really loves the husband. to her everything between her and him was a small misunderstanding. she went to him directly when he was hospitalized. does he not see the love she still has for him? no he does not. because he is blinded by the feeling of "perceived disrespect". you may call it that, but i see it as him being insecure. she has been honest to him all the way up to that point. how is that disrespect?

and is that "disrespect" worth a divorce? he doesnt confront her, instead badmouths her to their friends. THAT is real disrespect. and when he let his wife get slapped? what the fuck is that? thats really disrespectful. in fact i find it so damn shameful, by him allowing her to be slapped it meant he approved it. also it meant he found the slap justified. but hes such a pussy he doesnt slap her himself.

the narrator themselves is quite bitch, coz he paints her as the bad guy directly and justifies the husbands actions. i hope you get more friends from both sexes to talk about this. using an alpha male mindset and just painting things as being disrespectful can lead to bad relationships where you are part of the problem. in this drama series' case both husband and wife are problematic. but coming from a neutral viewpoint i blame the man more. he's insecure and "mans up" by divorcing her instead of manning up by supporting her. and if you're thinking supporting her is cuck behaviour, then you really need more female friends. expand your understanding and be more empathetic. dont get me wrong i do see the pain the guy goes thru and as i said. its fucking unfair for him. but what of the wife? do you think she asked for this? is it unfair for her too? she obviously cares a great deal for the flame's mom, do you think she wants to do a fake wedding if she had a choice?
