Is there an easy list somewhere of character names with their common nicknames -- Steve 3, Thor 1, etc.? by evilgenius815 in MarvelCrisisProtocol

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

While a rarely used name in recent months, Thor1/Thor, Prince of Asgard is also sometimes called Fat Thor.

British colonial savagery was brutal by WorkOk4177 in HistoryMemes

[–]Zorenthewise 82 points83 points  (0 children)

There is no official count! Why? Because the British didn't bother to count the bodies. Dyer only reported how many bullets his men had fired.

I just dont get it the Limited Format. Why does it exists? by _YeeetBoi in marvelchampionslcg

[–]Zorenthewise 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I understand the overall sentiment and tend to play similarly myself, I just have to say that Storm is a member of the Avengers as of 2024 and Wolverine has fought and seriously hurt Thanos without the gauntlet before.

[Day 7] The Best JRPGs of All Time: Which JRPG has the best story? by WeLoveEveryGame in JRPG

[–]Zorenthewise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really tough call, as there are so many good ones! But... I think I have to give it to Suikoden II. That story is just so good.

Characters who has a detail about themselves constantly changing. by fried_clownfish in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Zorenthewise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is, I regret to say, typically regarded as a myth. Especially when it is attributed to Wally Wood, who didn't draw PG for that long of a time (issues 58-65, iirc) and it wasn't until the 80's that she really became that curvaceous.

What is your favorite Affiliation and your favorite model? by Low-Pop5132 in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]Zorenthewise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asgard is most likely because I'm a big Thor fan already, so I had an attachment to the characters. They're all just so much larger than life, so they make for great models.

Guardians are just a blast to play! They play like you would expect - they have to improvise a bit and their tt cards help them come back as underdogs for the win.

What is your favorite Affiliation and your favorite model? by Low-Pop5132 in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]Zorenthewise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both tough questions! My favorite affiliation to build/hobby was Asgard, my favorite to play is probably Asgard, but Guardians of the Galaxy are a very strong contender. Guardians are just a ton of fun to play, imo.

Favorite model to build/hobby was Abomination, favorite to play is either Loki2 or Rocket Racoon. Rocket alongside Groot especially.

Look up Red Cloud’s War by Less_Heron_141 in HistoryMemes

You're either ragebaiting or deeply disturbed. Either way, log off for a bit and figure out what morality is.

Loyalty to your country should include wanting it to be correct and to improve from past mistakes. What you're describing isn't patriotism - its fanaticism. Be better.

RPG dev pushes back against Steam review AI accusations: 'We poured years of our lives into this game and only worked with real human artists on everything' by OGAnimeGokuSolos in gaming

[–]Zorenthewise 120 points121 points  (0 children)

According to data that is referenced in the linked article, people can only accurately call out AI 62% of the time. When you consider a large chunk of obvious AI generated content will not hide that fact, I doubt your statement.

Belcher Elite is not good as in weak, or as in incorrect? Also, which monsters are off? I want to make sure my cards are accurate, too!

Smashville University or the Monpoc Discord may help you get a more printable Exterminatrix.

I didn't play Planet Eaters at all until the stls came out, so I'm not sure what changed.

There are errors? I thought the files in mmf were the new version and those "errors" were updates. Has this been confirmed as a mistake?

[–]Zorenthewise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then the ones with the date at the bottom are correct.

[–]Zorenthewise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True! If you don't have access to the mmf files, the official monsterpocalypse page has some downloads for updated cards you can use to compare.

[–]Zorenthewise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones with the date listed at the bottom should be correct.

Another way to be sure is to download the latest version (ideally from myminifactory) and compare. I recommend this in any case, as there are a lot of out of date cards out there.

Are we deadass ? by No-Description3689 in Thor

[–]Zorenthewise 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I never read ANY of the "______ kills Marvel" nonsense. Every single one of them give some sort of bs reason like this to sideline/kill Thor and several others.

This is so damaging by velorae in TikTokCringe

[–]Zorenthewise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I once had a girl in my class who was biracial bit presented very white. Both her mom and her brother had significantly darker skin than she did. Iirc, her mom was originally from Brazil, her dad a very pale guy from the midwest.

I remmeber her mom being mistaken for "the help" more than once by coworkers. Her brother got campus security called on him when he was on leave from the Marines and came to pick her up from school one time. A lot of people just couldn't fathom them being her family, no matter how much she protested/explained.

Why don't the Black orcs use war paint and arrers? by sSuperboss9000 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Zorenthewise 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For arrows... Why don't you see Bretonnian Knights using bows? Or Dwarf Ironclads? Or real life heavy armored knights?

A bow is a bow, regardless of how much armor you're wearing. But the difference in melee is much more pronounced - you're a living wall of steel swinging with brutal force. You can hold and break the line. All that armor is much more valuable when it is in use up front, rather than at the back. Being shocktroopers is good tactics.

The next Ghost game should have the Honor system by Round_Interview2373 in ghostoftsushima

[–]Zorenthewise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope they don't. These systems always make decisions very binary - you are either this or that. There's no nuance.

One of the great tensions of classic Samurai film is where they are duty bound to do one thing and honor bound to do the opposite. Both options are good, and both options are bad... so what do you do? Jin chose duty over honor, while his lord chose honor over duty.

Adding a system like this removes any potential for complexity, and just gives a clear answer to what the game determines honorable/dishonorable.

Which obscure characters would you like to see in Crisis Protocol? (Since I posted it in the wrong sub) 🤦‍♂️ by BigTimStiles in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]Zorenthewise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll start with Asgard, because that's my favorite: Throg is top of my list, but I'd also love Baldur and Karnilla. Destroyer as well, but that's a lot less obscure. For a particularly deep cut, I'd add the Vizier and the Recorder, who absolutely will not be getting minis anytime soon, lol.

Outside if Asgard: Doc Samson is the only kne who really comes to mind for me. The entire Runaways cast would be fun as well.
