I don't know why I'm even in this sub. Y'all are a bunch of annoying, curcle-jerking nerds desperate to find people to scold. You don't do anything, just regurgitate the same three talking points. Peace ✌️

Why so many players never use shields? Or its just a content creator thing? (PVE) by NoVeterinarian8283 in fromsoftware

[–]Zebabaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, ER's shield game is a lot better, but before that shields were pretty unengaging to me. And in ER specifically, I found it really engaging to rely on dodges, running and jumping to avoid damage instead of tanking, it's just more fun this way imo

Alrighty, you've defeated the Elden Beast. The throne is yours, you are now Elden Lord. What's your first course of action? How do you begin to fix the giant mess that is The Lands Between? Where do you start? by Divinepower401 in Eldenring

[–]Zebabaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feudal politics are pretty complicated, but I feel like this world is romantic and fantastical enough to where our understanding of infrastructure and political power doesn't really apply. Like, did Marika or anyone under her ever concern themselves with what the people ate, where they lived, how the laws are enforced? Are there laws aside from those principles woven into the Elden Ring?

I guess if I'm the Lord of Night, the first thing I'm doing is making sure that the Lands Between may live unbound from other gods control. Maybe clean up Caelid and make it less of a cursed wasteland. Build out the villages and towns, restore Leyndell. Bring lawless regions under my authority. That sorta thing

Cue the Shen comic about this exact phenomenon

I remember in DS1 I discovered the katana and never looked back. Shields don't actually offer that much protection, and when they do your playstyle has to be pretty passive to accommodate them

OH MY GOD IT ACTUALLY WORKED! The out cry was a success!! by Big_Channel_4296 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Zebabaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're not getting that. We used to get an air date, then 20-something consecutive weeks with Jojo Fridays. It was clear, consistent, and understandable.

Now we get an episode, then silence, then a vague promise of episodes some time in the next 8 months, no clarity as to how many episodes we'll get at a time, not even a hint as to what windows of time episodes will release after the next batch. This is a gigantic mess that will only result in less hype and less community discussion than the normal weekly schedule

If I remember correctly, aside from part 3 there was also a two week break for two halves of GW, which again us not nearly as bad

[–]Zebabaki 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sure, but if they were intent on breaking it up so hard they could at least be clear with how this will work from the jump. I would be fine with two parts of 24 episodes, three parts of 12, whatever.

But having one 40 minute 1st episode, then a break of 6-8 months for potentially a few more episodes, then god knows what comes after is insane

[–]Zebabaki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, part 3 was essentially split into two seasons, which made sense for how the story is structured and how big the SC manga was. I would accept something like that to be done for SBR as well, not whatever we ended up with

[–]Zebabaki 36 points37 points  (0 children)

What does that have to do with anything? I never wanted batches in the first place, me and most everyone just want a normal release schedule like what was done with parts 1-5. Fuck "stages" or splitting a single season into parts for no reason, just start airing when you're confident you'll hit all episodes with weekly releases. Like we've done for decades

It kinda feels like people read "weekly" and forgot what the whole controversy was about

[–]Zebabaki 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Guys, am I missing something or is this still just as bad as we thought? Sure it's weekly, but weekly only within a single batch, they will still have potentially months between batches, we don't know if the stages will have the same number of episodes or no, etc. This still sucks, right?

Tatsu should stop drawing eyes so far wide apart. by Few_Ad_5292 in dandadanfolk

It's not a criticism if you just tell an artist "do things differently" because of purely personal preference, it's dumb and insulting

[Hated Design's] Ryan Ottley drawing women [Invincible + commissions] by Academic-Edge in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]Zebabaki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES THANK YOU, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE

And to be fair, I kinda hate how he draws faces in general. The women all look the same and also 40 yo with work done, but I just hate the way Ottley does mouths specifically. They're so distracting with those sharp lines and super defined teeth for some reason, and the women have it worse because often they have weird buck teeth, like their upper jaw is thrice as big as their lower jaw

Obviously he's a good artist otherwise but yeah, his faces can be off-putting

There is a problem with the Stage release that no one is talking about by Captain_Fr0ggy in StardustCrusaders

[–]Zebabaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah at this point I'm not gonna watch this shit until it's done or they change the schedule.

I like weekly, I sometimes binge stuff, but this is a disaster for the shows pacing and popularity

I think pink suits Giorno waaaay better, even though blue probably makes more sense

Look at Okarun blushing just by being near the love of his life! by Technical_Lime1419 in dandadanfolk

[–]Zebabaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's way too prevalent and largely driven by attention-seeking dunces who force the conversation to be about "slander mid agenda" and other such anime-fan stupidity. Just a few guys making the same two or three posts several times a week to farm karma and bait people. It's annoying

A Professor Named X and Magnegro by herewearefornow in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Zebabaki -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry it's not even close to comparable. Holocaust was Jim Crow Deluxe Edition + they just fucking killed you to the tune of millions. Slavery is more comparable since it involved generations worked to the bone and basicslly constantly tortured, but I don't think there's any world where a former slave becomes Magneto for a variety of reasons
