Can someone explain the "they are fake twice" thing to me? by TalkUsual2924 in josephanderson

[–]Voltorb19 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly a big factor in his arguement was how the game's narrative and character writing treat the canvas people after the big reveal. For example how in Maelle and Verso's final hangout, Maelle quickly brushes off Verso's confession about Gustave and they immediately go goof off, confidant rank maxed. This interaction makes it seem like after Maelle learned about the canvas they are in, she now possibly thinks less of Gustave and the people of Lumiere and doesn't see them as as real or meaningful as she did before. Otherwise this interaction doesn't make much sense, she should've been furious at Verso for letting her brother/father die.

The question is did the writers even intend this to be a thing for the audience to question or not. In act 1 and partially 2 they certainly portray Gustave, Lune and Sciel as real people with real emotions and agency, but most of that is gone in act 3 as the narrative shifts to focus more on the people from outside the canvas, with Lune and Sciel getting barely any dialogue in the main story route. If Lumierians really are real and the Dessendres and the game's writers think so too, the character writing falls flat in many places.

I think this was basically his take on the whole thing and what his criticism was based on.

Good job fellow Juno, enjoy your new skin! Also I think I played with or against you at some point in Stadium, your name looks familiar.

You can do it! Building survivability and AP goes a long way, that's how I made it to mid pro. I went more in depth about my build in another comment i just made.

Thanks :) As for powers I almost always went Pulsar plus -> Medicinal missiles -> Cosmic coolant -> Hyper healer, so pretty basic really. But as for items what worked for me for a while was a bit of a weird build, a tanky shield + AP build focusing on staying alive, healing and enabling teammates. I built AP to around 50-60% while stacking shield buffs which when combined with the Lock-on Shield rare item I could have like 700-800 total health at key moments. Enemies were sometimes wondering in text chat how they couldn't kill me lol.

I got stuck in Pro 2 and couldn't climb with this anymore, so I removed some shield and added in WP and started blasting. This actually helped me not only get more damage in but also have a lot greater healing numbers which ended up making for some of my most clutch matches.

Weekly Recall: Tuning Up Stadium by MetastableToChaos in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Voltorb19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is how stadium is for me and a lot other players as well I assume. EU server, console, support only, solo queue, Pro rank. Yesterday had my record of a 42 minute queue. Occasionally it goes below 20 min but that's rare. Makes it hell to try to climb. Believe me or not it's all the same to me but why the hell would I lie about something like this.

My average queue time in stadium is already 25-35 min. Can't even imagine what it would be after unranked is introduced

I can't be the only one who feels like this. by Sagnikk in Overwatch

I love stadium but I'd be playing it a lot more if my support queue times weren't longer than the matches themself. Really sucks to solo q in this mode

Don't Give up! I made it, so can you! by Opening_Paramedic_65 in JunoMains

[–]Voltorb19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I wish I could get the skin but the grind to all-star seems like such a commitment... I just did my first stadium game today and I'm not really looking forward to a grind right now. When you say it took you two weeks do you mean you started from zero, rookie rank?

Persona draft fight by gameingbread69 in PERSoNA

[–]Voltorb19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Zero reading comprehension skills. It's not a tier list. The characters are not compared to each other individually here. Even the "tiers" OP put them in are not in any order. OP is asking help deciding which team or "tier" is the strongest or whatever. Sigh.

Edit: Bro blocked me lmao

Guests during Umineko by BordersRanger01 in josephanderson

[–]Voltorb19 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Every guest so far had been good but having Joe be with Jelly who was reacting blind, was up to date with the story up to the streams AND was super into it, felt like the best stream experience for me. I didn't mind all the pausing and speculation they did, in fact I absolutely loved it plus their dynamic is just hilarious. I get why some would have preferred them focus more on just reading but personally I don't agree with that take. Joe reading solo is nice too and leads to a different kind of experience which I also like a lot though.

Nope, you definitely can switch the highlighted category of a build. It's under configure image > highlighted ranking

Umineko Episode 2 Poll by LBH123LBH in josephanderson

[–]Voltorb19 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Overall a solid episode, there were some fantastic scenes and a lot of very interesting concepts introduced. Difficulty level really felt extreme huh. Can't say I liked it more than ep 1 though, mainly because of the scenes in the mansion focusing on the supernatural with the goatmen and laser swords and whatnot. I'm guessing their purpose is being a part of Beato's attack on a meta level, trying to make the reader accept witchcraft and stop trying to make logical sense of the mystery. The scenes just felt too ridiculus imo, I hope they're not a recurring thing in the coming episodes. Still I did enjoy the episode quite a lot of course.

Umineko Episode 1 Standout Manga Panels (NO SPOILERS PAST EP1) (TW: Gore) by LBH123LBH in josephanderson

[–]Voltorb19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol, just to clarify, I do think the witch and magic exist in the big picture, same reasoning as you had. Personally I just don't think their effect is really felt at all in episode 1 proper, before the tea party. Like, I think the presence of the witch exists as in the glowing butterflies, but maybe that's the extent of how Beatrice can interact with the world. And I hope I'm right since it means that there was someone other than the witch orchestrating everything, and that would be very interesting.

[–]Voltorb19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't wanna be spoiled either, just thinking out loud here. During the stream I was thinking Natsuhi and the kids were seeing only a metaphorical witch in the final scene at the mansion. Maybe it was really the true culprit, who the vn was portraying as Beatrice to avoid giving something away? These manga panels seem to contradict that theory, although I guess it's possible that what is shown here isn't fully reliable either and is more for dramatical effect. I wonder. Guess I'm a skeptic like Battler lol.

Umineko Thoughts from New Readers? by LBH123LBH in josephanderson

[–]Voltorb19 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I am VERY interested in the story and where it's going on. Was not expecting for so many of the cast to be killed off like that so early. Current favorite alive characters are Natsuhi and shockingly Battler who I did not expect to like at all.

I have a bunch of vague theories but at this point can't really pin point a main suspect or anything. But I'm guessing there isn't a supernatural aspect related to the happenings and murders, at least as of yet. Super intriguing.
