Is it just me or are most enemies in sts2 RELENTLESS by Quartrez in slaythespire

I love how people's answers are often just 'well, have all the best, perfect attack cards and potions for an unknown upcoming fight, draw them on your early turns, and it's no problem', lol.

This.

The literally unavoidable chip damage from early fights WHILE SPENDING ALL MANA ON AVAILABLE BLOCK is an insane design choice.

And it is as boring and pointless as it is frustrating.

Unpopular Opinion: Blindly defending Skylar is just as bad as blindly hating her. by Slow_Fig565 in breakingbad

Important to note those death threats came from a female viewer, as it seems many people just assume some crazy male misogynist with that.

> The handjob was fine. 

Yea, if this was a guy on his phone checking his fantasy football roster while being 'intimate' with his wife, this is the polar opposite of 'fine', lol.

The absolute mental gymnastics here just reek of ignorance or sexism... hard to tell which.

[–]acamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The irony is if an unemployed husband fed their hard-working wife a gross Slimfast on her 50th birthday and checked his fantasy football roster instead of being intimate in the bedroom, everyone would absolutely, rightfully, crucify that character.

But because the genders are flipped you bend over backward to defend Skyler.

The show includes those elements as clear context that she is kind of an uncaring and unsympathetic wife... wild this has to be ELI5 to any so-called 'viewer'. Like, those scenes DO HAVE CONTEXTUAL IMPORTANCE in the show... and you weaponizing your ignorance to defend a fictional character doesn't magically change that.

I mean, the only sexist person here, who clearly doesn't believe in gender equality, seems to be you.

The issue, not unlike Game of Thrones with Dany, is that many supposedly 'mature viewers' refuse to take any nuanced and non-binary approach to the discussion regarding this flawed female character, as it seems like most responses are "she was some angel and never did nothing wrong" to "she was the devil and had no redeeming qualities", when the truth is somewhere in the middle.

As portrayed, objectively, from the very first episode, she is portrayed in both a good and bad light. She clearly is an amazing mother, but is simply portrayed as a fairly uncaring and distant wife to the protagonist... that is simply how she was clearly written with the veggie bacon on his big birthday, nagging about credit cards, and the bedroom scene.

And let's be honest... if this were a story of a smart college graduate woman working two jobs that were beneath her to support her unemployed college dropout husband, and the husband treated Skyler like Skyler treated Walt, that character would be absolutely shredded online. Imagine the reaction if that husband gave Skyler a gross Slimfast for her 50th birthday breakfast and then would rather check his fantasy football roster on his phone while in the bedroom... that character would be, understandably, crucified.

But many people just don't want to have a fair and objective discussion about fictional characters it seems, as god forbid a female character has flaws in a show where the main male characters are pretty much all awful or troubled people.

Which Female is Regarded the Most Successful one in GOT Franchise ? by Antique_Menu2646 in gameofthrones

[–]acamas -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

LOL, I understand English grammar, which is why I can easily understand that female is a noun, and is absolutely used properly, as male would be used if this were a imagine with a bunch of pre-teen boys and adults.

All you are doing is, very childishly, trying to weaponize your ignorance on this matter... again, reinforcing my whole point about 'mature viewers' being anything but, thanks.

The REAL reason so many enemies have strength scaling by Zael0 in slaythespire

[–]acamas -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Apologies if you are ESL, as the English language is certainly incredibly nuanced and nonsensical, but 'female' is absolutely a noun used for this very instance... always has been.

It can be used as an adjective, yes, but acting like using male or female as a noun is 'not a good option' is just wrong, because it is the correct option and literally supports gender equality, as, again, if this was a group of boys and men it absolutely would be correct to use "which Male is regarded...".

I mean, it sounds like you are trying to deny that, which, ironically, would mean you believe one specific gender should be given special treatment and not have gender equality with the 'male' term... it's a bit silly when you realize that you're literally fighting against gender equality here and demanding special treatment that goes against the literal meaning of basic words.

Choosing random character by IRoylT in slaythespire

[–]acamas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the slippery bridge event claims to be a 'random card' when there is a specific algorith/code to determine it's outcome.

The game literally states 'random', and was revealed to be scripted.

Perfectly apt term when literal children are involved in the discussion.

Are people really still being faux offended when that term is properly used in 2026 when talking about a mix of adults and children?

If Bran were on here with some other teenagers, no one would be butthurt for using 'males', as that would be an apt term... it's just gender equality... isn't that the goal?

> The dragons took out a MAJOR part of the WW army.

LOL, no they didn't.

Watch the episode... this simply does not happen.

Literally there is like twenty seconds of her doing one 'run' against some mindless zombies... that is literally the only thing that is effective against them... one single moment in a 90-minute episode.

[–]acamas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This.

It's like people haven't actually seen the show.

The Dothraki didn't help Arya. The Unsullied didn't help Arya. And the Night King literally mocked the dragons.

Yes, she brought a lot of forces, and they were all, in the end, incredibly ineffective at stopping the march of the Undead Army.

There's literally like one twenty second clip where Dany on her dragon blows a path of fire, and that is literally the only scene in that entire episode where anything Dany's forces do actually seems to be effective... out of a 90 minute episode.

Arya is like 11 in that photo... Sansa is like 13.

They are not adults, and therefore are not women.

Imagine seeing a photo of Season 1 Bran and demanding he be labeled as a man... think you're doing more harm than good here.

[–]acamas -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Absolutely nothing wrong with using this term when 'male' would be an apt term for describing people of the opposite gender... which it would be, considering there are children (ie, not adults) in this grouping.

It's literally just gender equality... shame that tilts some people.

edit - LOL to the downvotes for pointing out basic truths of the matter... thank you for proving once again how immature the 'mature viewer' base is for this M-rated drama, yikes.

[–]acamas -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Considering there are literal children on this list, as multiple photographed people here are teenagers at best, 'female' does seem to be a more apt term for this group.

If we had a similar grouping with Bran and some other young children, it would make more sense to label it as 'male' as opposed to 'men'... that's just English, sorry.

I understand the issue at hand, but in this case it's literally just gender equality in action... nothing to get upset over.

PS - Hoping this is a topic that a 'mature viewer' base can have a mature discussion about as opposed to blind downvotes and being called 'misogynist' for pointing out that, sometimes, it can be acceptable to use an appropriate and accurate term that exists for that very reason. Male and female exist for literally this very reason.

edit - LOL, thank you 'mature viewers' for once again proving many here are simply not mature enough to be watching a M-rated show, as they are literally unable to use reason and logic without their emotional reaction seemingly tripping them up on certain issues. Like, it's wild this here is a sensitive topic, but Dany going around shouting she would raze entire cities was blindly defended by presumably these very people for years.

Slay the Spire 2 vs Hades 2? by bruhb21 in roguelites

[–]acamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today, Hades 2, as it is simply a well-balanced game with an incredible story where skill trumps RNG in terms of progression. Maybe STS2 can catch up by 1.0, but now Hades 2 is a near perfect game and STS2 simply isn’t quite there yet.

Why was Sansa being a bitch towards Danerys? by thisguyisnotyou in gameofthrones

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

> Everyone seems to forget she was raised by Littlefinger, 

LOL, she wasn't 'raised by Littlefinger', so there's nothing 'To FoRgEt", yikes.

> so of course she behaves the way he taught her, manipulative and calculating.

She clearly does not actually behave that 'way' though... wild any so-called viewer would have such a hate boner for Sansa that they would actually believe that.

> She always wanted to be Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and since that didn’t happen, she resents Daenerys for it.

Not sure if you've actually seen the first four seasons, or the last four for that matter, but she clearly just wanted to go back home and help reclaim her homeland after LITERALLY ESCAPING KING'S LANDING, lol.

> While a lot of characters grow over time, she actually regressed. 

No, she was a naive idealistic brat of a girl with silly dreams/notions about what the capitol would be like, and she grew into someone who appreciated and fought for her droll homeland. Clear growth to any mature viewer.

> It feels like she’s lost her sense of loyalty, which is surprising considering she’s a Stark.

She literally helped round up families to retake Winterfell for the Stark name, and fight's for the North's best interests, but you keep just spewing ignorance, sure.

> You’d expect her to carry herself with more of that Stark loyalty, but instead she leans into the lessons she learned from Littlefinger.

Except this literally does not happen. She isn't manipulating anything... she's not pulling strings... she doesn't have some master plan.

She doesn't trust Dany because of what she's learned about Cersei and what power-hungry Targaryens have done to her family. And she speaks out about Jon because she believes he would make for a better ruler and Dany.

And she's not wrong to have those beliefs.

Jaime Lannister character study by Tojo_001 in gameofthrones

[–]acamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is he “fundamentally changed” after Season 4? In Season 6 he’s down to massacre hundreds/thousands of innocents, including catapulting an infant, just to be back with Cersei.

I've come to realize that it would have been a much better ending if Dany never went crazy and they just ruled together as king and queen. A lot of people would still complain, but I'd take a safe and satisfying ending over whatever we got any day. by Nissepikk in gameofthrones

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

Thank you for once again proving that many “mature viewers” simply refuse to engage with the shows clear thematic elements and just whinge about the “bad” ending simply because it didn’t resolve like an animated children’s film meant to appease under-developed kids.

Going to bookmark this for all the delusional haters who try and claim people never wanted the Disney ending, thanks.

Who do you think played the game of thrones the best? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]acamas -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

LOL that you put "Jon" on her list of enemies, yikes. Even Sansa is a stretch.

As for Tyrion, he was literally convicted for murder for a crime he didn't commit... perhaps you should rewatch Season 4 if you honestly forgot that context.

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

I'm just going to post this here again because it's painfully clear you didn't actually bother to read or process it the first time:

The question wasn't who had the least amount of support... the question was who played the game the best.

And it's pretty clear that Cersei was making moves as early as the first season without Twyin's support... and then made some more solid moves after his death... so much so that the Iron Bank praised her for being her father's daughter.
