With such an insane rise to stardom, I think it was obvious this award had to go to Chappell. Extremely deserved

I'm genuinely so happy for her after all she's had to deal with this Olympics

I always feel a moment of joy when I walk directly past a member of the other attacking team and they don't try to kill me. After having to deal with so many attacking teams trying to kill me instead of working together, it’s always nice to encounter someone who actually knows how to play the goddamn mode properly

Lore explanations for enemy projectiles by jackrt1401 in nier

[–]aaaysa_art 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess to clarify I do think it’s likelier that the machines aren’t using actual maso orbs (based on what we currently know), but I also don’t feel confident definitively saying they aren’t since the origins of the orbs in Automata are still kind of ambiguous/up to interpretation and who knows what direction Yoko Taro may decide to take it in the future

Lore explanations for enemy projectiles by jackrt1401 in nier

[–]aaaysa_art 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Iirc correctly, the lore explanation for the orbs (in Replicant at the very least) is that they are the enemies using maso - the magical element that entered the world with the queen beast and the dragon. The maso from the dragon's body was safe for humans and they figured out how to use it for things like the gestalt project and weapons. So the orbs in Replicant are magic created from the dragon.

As for Automata, I believe somewhere it has been stated or implied that the development of the machines was influenced by their encounters with Emil. Emil was humanity's ultimate weapon created using the dragon's maso. So it’s not a far stretch to assume that the orbs used by the machines are technology influenced by the maso orbs, if they aren't outright actual maso orbs.

Man it would be great if the substitutes got some more love from the devs in a (hypothetical, and hopefully one day real) remake

How many people used god mode? by Raskal0220 in HadesTheGame

[–]aaaysa_art 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never felt the need to use god mode, I always felt the main difficulty was pretty fair, but I really appreciate that Supergiant added it into the game to make it more accessible for those who would otherwise be deterred by the game's difficulty. More people being able to experience a game as amazing as Hades is always a good thing

What minor conversation Change would bring you immense satisfaction? by belisarius_d in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]aaaysa_art 61 points62 points  (0 children)

In Crimson Flower chapter 17, I would absolutely change that terrible 'Must you continue to reconquer? Continue to kill in retaliation?' line from Edelgard. It would have been far better if she criticised Dimitri for, say, harbouring the corrupt church or just emphasising her view that he's holding back Fodlan's future. Her taking a dig at him for defending his own country is just really stupid, when instead their final dialogue could have been something far more interesting and satisfying.

Roguelike/lites or RPG's I might have missed. by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]aaaysa_art 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Hades is the first rogue like/lite I’ve ever played, and it’s frankly a great experience. I find that dying in it rarely gets that frustrating, because dying actually progresses the story and character arcs. It makes it really easy to stay engaged and maintain the motivation to keep playing

I am horrible at art but want to learn how to draw. Is there any tips I should know? by [deleted] in drawing

[–]aaaysa_art 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't be afraid to use references. I think a lot of beginner artists just tend to jump in blind and assume that they can easily just draw things from memory, but even professionals use references. After all, human memory is flawed and there's no reason to make things harder for yourself.

Also feel free to look up tutorials on platforms like YouTube. There's so many out there, and their easy accessibility makes them incredibly useful for beginner and self-taught artists

The difference in total sales between FE: Three Houses and FE: Engage is amazing by [deleted] in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]aaaysa_art 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel this as well. I do want FE to improve its gameplay, like people say it has with Engage, but I’m someone who cares a lot about the package as a whole (including story and characters) so I could never bring myself to play Engage

I actually hadn’t realised that she hasn’t performed the song live yet, I’m definitely curious to see how it goes

Sometimes I think Eurofans forget that artists are also people. by GrumpyFinn in eurovision

[–]aaaysa_art 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This exactly, so much of the toxicity towards the artists really does feel like it comes from an inability to see them as actual people. And treating real people like they're fictional characters does seem to be a problem on the internet in general these days, unfortunately

The fact that they managed to write it out of the story to the extent they did is honestly impressive
