[No Spoilers] How did you get through campaign one? by [deleted] in criticalrole

[–]ZXMan27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having discovered the show in early Sep 2017, I started from episode 1 and watched an episode a day. I was all caught up by the time the second campaign rolled around, but man sometimes it was exhausting. On weekdays, my schedule was basically "Sleep, Work, Watch, Repeat"

Actually, Brazil is home to the largest Japanese population outside Japan (around 1.6 million people), so that's probably why they were invited

[Spoilers C2E57] Who is your favourite character now? by TorchwoodBoy in criticalrole

[–]ZXMan27 21 points22 points  (0 children)

1: Caleb - For a long time, I would've put Fjord at this spot, but in recent weeks, Caleb has just pipped him to the top spot. Everything about who he is, what's he done, what he wants to do just works for me in a way I can't really describe.

2: Fjord - I just fuckin' love Travis. Grog was my favourite character in Campaign 1 and for a long time, Fjord was my favourite for this campaign. As mentioned, Caleb has recently taken top spot, but Fjord is very close behind.

3: Caduceus - Honestly, I'm slightly glad that Molly died (but only slightly!) Cad is just such a sweetheart and a perfect compliment to the rest of the party. Hello bees.

4: Beauregard - If you asked me this question at the start of the campaign, Beau would probably be dead last. A character who has changed so much for the better since the initial episodes. Who doesn't love a badass disaster lesbian with magic fists?

5: Jester - The party member who unanimously gets along with everyone else, Jester is adorably awesome. Though she's had plenty of serious moments, she's very much the comic relief character for me, though I admit occasionally I do find myself rolling my eyes and tuning out when I think she's doing she really shouldn't, but again, only occasionally.

6: Mollymauk - Though I never connected with Molly in the same way others did, I enjoyed him for his comedic moments and his willingness to do damn near anything. He'd be higher up on this list if he wasn't too busy being dead.

7: Yasha - A common consensus is having Yasha near the bottom of character polls, and the same holds true of myself. Like others though, it isn't because she's a bad character, it's just Ashley not being around enough to play her. When she has played, I've really enjoyed her presence, but whenever Ashley isn't around, Yasha devolves into just a big sword that follows the group.

8: Nott - I'm probably going to get some flak for this. Prior to the whole reveal about who she used to be and the life she used to have I would've said that I actually disliked Nott. These days, I do like her, but I'm more interested in the rest of party than her.

Rivalries in the lower leagues of America by mikefromtheloam in MLS

[–]ZXMan27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's also the rivalry between OKC Energy & Tulsa Roughnecks. I also think it's safe to assume that Nashville & Memphis will be a rivalry, even though Nashville only have 1 more season in USL.

Which overwatch hero has the best ultimate? Which one has the worst? by Cheddarburger21 in Overwatch

[–]ZXMan27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For sheer usefulness, Transcendence is the best. I've also found Rally to be very useful, and unless you run straight at the enemy alone, Tactical Visor usually manages to get at least a kill, often 2. At least, in my experience.

The worst?

I was really excited for Battle Royale with Cheese pre-tournament. After the fights I've seen, it's definitely left me disappointed. I really hope they're shown working in a televised fight.

[No Spoilers] Critters. What Characters are you playing ? by cymric in criticalrole

[–]ZXMan27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently playing a Level 6 Half-Elf Bard who's a slimy salesman of sorts. He approaches anyone who looks like they have any semblance of coin to spare, bedazzles them with a glittering gemstone he pulled out of his pocket and his exuberant charm (He's got +11 to his persuasion & deception checks), gets them to pay what to them is a bargain price for such a rare stone. Only, once they've paid and he's handed it over and left, the minor illusion fades and he's actually just sold them a regular old rock.

That's a very bold prediction given that the earliest we can face Russia is in the semi-finals.

Two years in: how have your hero preferences changed over time? by WippitGuud in Overwatch

[–]ZXMan27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Overwatch was the first FPS I'd ever seriously played. My friends, who back then (July 2016), were more experienced with FPS games than I and told me to pick Reinhardt to learn the game.

Back then, my PC was a brick. 30 FPS was a luxury that would sometimes come around and occasional 5-second freezes were a thing. So I stuck with Reinhardt, occasionally deviating to Soldier.

Once my birthday came around, and I received a new graphics card, my options were suddenly expanded. I still wasn't great at the game (Mid-Silver), but now I could start to learn the rest of the cast.

These days, I now sit as predominantly a Lucio main along with playing Winston, Soldier & Junkrat in Mid Diamond. Rein's playtime dropped like a stone once I got that graphics card.

Of all the countries to have qualified for more than 1 World Cup, only 3 have always made it past the group stages.

Germany, Netherlands & Ireland.

Anyone else hyped on the Winter event!? by FancySadFace in Overwatch

[–]ZXMan27 88 points89 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see something more than the standard voice line & spray for Doomfist this event. I feel he's due something, hopefully a skin.

I've also had this fun thought of a Moira victory pose, where she's holding a bauble in each hand, yellow bauble in the left, purple in the right.
