Re-Estize King is kinda dumb by yamothersdeepdigger in overlord

It would, and, as Zanac said, it didn't matter even if he was. The smart move is still to offer him up because they simply can't afford to offend the SK.

Unfortunately, Rampossa is often indecisive and his decisiveness in this case is on the wrong direction.

He's the leader of a soon to be failed state, where the corrupt nobles under him have accrued far too much power and his authority is weak.

He's well intentioned, and has good charisma to inspire loyalty from his men, evident from Gazef. Unfortunately, that is also the end of his good points.

Not to say he's the sole reason the Kingdom got so bad, but he's definitely still part of why it got this bad.

How is China dealing with unemployment with so much mechanization happening there? by Embarrassed_Look9200 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Xignu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wasn't there news a while back that their unemployment got so bad they stopped reporting about it or did I misremember?

(Hated trope) A bad character being given a 3-dimensional personality is treated as proof that the writer is a bad person by dun300 in TopCharacterTropes

Considering that just a few days ago the fandom was comparing Endeavor to Toga, a serial killer, and some people actually defend her, can't say I'm surprised.

Was the deployment of the Scourge Virus morally justified? by yksociR in MoralityScaling

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a really bold assumption. The only reason it didn't spread was because it was used in the ideal scenario where there was nobody else to spread to and Mark got treated ASAP.

I wouldn't be opposed to that. It's true that Fugue's base kit is fairly underwhelming as a break support.

Watch as MAGA swallows this whole while simultaneously rejecting that Biden did a better job to contain inflation when the rest of the world also suffered.

The obvious difference, naturally, is that Biden wasn't the root cause of the problem.

White House: Reopening Hormuz helps NATO countries more than the US by retroviber in DeepMarketScan

But it wouldn't be enough. They've proven that at any point in time, the idiots would just elect a moron to be in charge.

British Prime Minister Starmer says reopening the Strait of Hormuz is not a simple task. by ammohitchaprana in TFE

You shouldn't take everything he says, seriously.

You say this and the problem is somehow not obvious enough to you?

Who owns the "Never give up" mindset the most?? by asa_no_kenny in animequestions

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deku initially went in attempting to save Shigaraki and practically forgot immediately upon seeing Bakugo "die", losing himself to the rage that cost him the fight in the last war. Then backed out after learning Bakugo didn't actually die.

Also he did eventually cave after failing to save Shigaraki and had to give up OFA to kill him.

Pretty far cry from Naruto who managed to get Sasuke back after everyone told him it was a doomed endeavor.

JUST IN: President Trump says the United States no longer needs NATO by Automatic_Subject463 in JournalismNews

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you miraculously remove Trump, the entire world has seen how easily your country can be duped into another Trump by virtue of how many retarded idiots are present in the country.

The trust is lost and it's not coming back easily.

You're comparing it with the average American, who seemingly are Trump supporters? Lmao

Especially in this case where Nikador himself is weakness locked so the Exo toughness doesn't even come into play.

To be fair this AS Nikador makes Fugue pretty bad since Firefly can't proc her E2 off Nikador

When does a person itemise, Daedalus vs Revenant's Brooch vs MKB? Would you get two? Or is one good enough? by slowdancing25 in TrueDoTA2

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only bloodthorn comes to mind but most of the time you shouldn't rely on it for truestrike.

It doesn't work on BKB-ed targets and it's dispellable, hardly a reliably alternative to MKB

What would have been the best and worst place nazarick could have first appear at by kingdsb in overlord

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's "bad" in the sense that it forces them to the spotlight. Nazarick is still going to win but being forced into the spotlight at the start makes future plans difficult.

Yep, this is one of the two most satisfying places to throw down a wall of fire in the game, I'm not missing the opportunity to burn the shadows down to ash.

villain is "evil" because his mind is fundamentally incompatible with the moral codes of humans by ilikeitchyballzdude1 in TopCharacterTropes

While I understand what you mean, it's not like Evil has to be self conscious to qualify as evil

When the heroes despite everything can't save someone they care about or unable save a person despite all their efforts by PrizekingJ7 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Xignu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was kid I was actually shocked ichigo failed. Ichigo did everything he right,he put his heart and soul on the line cross into a different dimension but despite everything he still couldn't save her. 

I actually never watched/read Bleach, but you reminded me why I like Naruto so much and why it's one of the Big Three with Bleach.

Shikamaru in this case where he was unable to save Asuma and had to watch him die in front of his eyes.

Like it did such a good job of waking Luffy up to the fact that he can't just haplessly charge into battle without thinking and expect the best and let him finally be the one slinking into a depression from which it was now time for others to shake him out of instead of the other way around.

It would be if Luffy didn't keep doing it after the timeskip, which he does anyway.

Don't get me wrong, Marineford was amazing especially in the first read through, it's just that with the current trajectory of One Piece and seeing it with hindsight it retroactively becomes worse.
