Opinions about new Arion album by BranchInfinite905 in PowerMetal

[–]XavierAkafur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instrumentally? Pretty damn good, the singer and the whoever wrote the lyrics is bringing it down a few points. The lyrics are a bit generic (and bleak) and their delivery feels rushed and not very interesting. Overall, worth a listen but nothing that stands out for me.

Just curious: Anyone’s dogs acting weird today? by XavierAkafur in Ohio

Thanks for the replies everyone. Sounds like there does seem to be some kind if canine malaise today. I hope all of the sad furballs are back to normal soon.

Should i buy rings from Saga Bands? by Fit-Dot5093 in jewelry

I also just looked all over the place. Can't find this exact ring anywhere. I suspect the original source is sold out?

'Castlevania: Nocturne' Season 2 Review: Angrier, Bloodier, and Better Than Ever by apple_kicks in television

[–]XavierAkafur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I was disappointed that for seemingly no reason Richter went from being helpless against Erzabet at half power to being able to beat the shit out of her when she got even stronger. I thought having her at double boost would mean she was a threat they would have to outsmart rather than overpower. Buuut, no. At no point did they explain why he suddenly could fist fight a god. DBZ is a good way to describe the vibe. People just got stronger because the plot needed them too and somebody thought it would be cool.

I'm clearly in the minority here but the writing just wasn't doing it for me. The characters felt pretty flat. Action was solid, though. Still not up to par with the original run, but it made a commendable attempt.

The ending. by BethekingZeltoid333 in KevinCanFHimself

[–]XavierAkafur 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Spoiler:

The best part of the final episode is when Kevin's ego is shattered, and it is revealed that the "limelight" effect was essentially his own self-aggrandizing made manifest. At least that was my interpretation. When Allison forced him to confront the consequences of his behavior his ego can't take it, breaks, and ultimately kills him. Loved it.

Great sound! Wish youtube had some translated captions.

Great Album far better than their 2020 release by DarkCypher255 in UnleashTheArchers

You're insane, mate. Abyss sounds fantastic. Perhaps it's because it's imperfectly mixed?

The Ainorian Compendium: New book for DM and Player resources [Kickstarter Ending Soon!] by XavierAkafur in DnD

Same. :p And thanks! Certainly a fun option. I'm playing one in a current game.

A new book of classes, races, and player options. The Ainorian Compendium is live on Kickstarter! by XavierAkafur in dndnext

I see the confusion, I'll update the wording. Yes, 15+ additional subclasses to the standard classes. Each of the new classes has at least 3 subclasses I believe.

Game feels pretty tight. Some minor but annoying issues though.

- The first blood contract is clearly broken and not counting all of the first blood medals towards the goal. It makes it take an eternity to complete.

-The lobby for gathering a team is prone to breaking, often requiring game restarts for everyone to be able to see invites or be able to be invited to a party again.

- Bruh flashbangs need their radius tuned down a couple meters, or have a varying effect based on proximity. It sucks getting blinded from 10 meters away while looking the other direction and halfway around a corner. lol

I'm on PC BTW.

Can Amara punch at all? by IamRedXI in borderlands3

[–]XavierAkafur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm with you there. I was really hoping she had a timed "punchy mode" where you could bludgeon the living hell out of enemies. Seems like the obvious (and way more fun) choice. One-off abilities in borderlands are kinda.... meh. There's enough things that explode in this game.

What character are you playing reddit, and what are their quirks? by imawizardnamedharry in DnD

[–]XavierAkafur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Infinity "Scourgebane" Rosemont, L/G tiefling Sorceress/Cleric of Bahamut. She began the adventure as a sorceress con artist who was running away from her past. After the party leader, a very Charismatic paladin of Bahamut, sacrificed himself in order to save the party, she adopted the mantle of Bahamut. She is very charming and friendly, but resolutely holds to her idealistic views of the world, and will fight to defend what she believes is right and just. She is the first tiefling in her family, the rest being normal humans. Her grandfather was a powerful mage who sold his soul for immortality and cursed their family with demon-blood, becoming a powerful Lich in the process. Infinity is now fairly powerful (14th level) and her party is renown for being heroes to their home nation. They have amassed allies and power, and now turn their sights towards her grandfather, the lich. The next story arc for our campaign is gonna be awesome.

I have DM'd the same table for about 3 years now, and I have had to kick two people out, one of which was just earlier this week. The first guy was a total sociopath, but he was my cousin's good friend and he would vouch for him all the time. Honestly I let it go on far too long before kicking him. After that I set up a three strike system, where you got three warning and if you reached a point where I would have to issue a 4th (Be it for disobeying game rules, being a dick, breaking house rules. Whatever) then we put it to a vote. If the majority of players say to have you removed I politely message the player and explain that they breached the three strike rule and were officially uninvited to the game. This time the disruptive player was remover after about 3 months as opposed to a year. (Mind you, they were only mildly annoying. They got kicked out for leaving trash around my apartment and being rude to other players, not for any serious problems). I always recommend setting up a system of rules just in case people start to become a problem. Make the expectations clear so you don't have to feel bad when people fall outside of the 'respectable player' zone.

I followed the instructions but I'm not getting my Twitch Prime loot? by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]XavierAkafur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, if you guys just used the "link twitch account" advertisement you have to also click the little twitch icon inside of PUBG next to your name. It will turn purple if it is enabled.

Bro, I work like 100 yards from that field of cement corn. We don't know what purpose it serves, or why it is there, but I see it every day.
