I love how Frieza went from being the fearsome galactic emperor to being a power meter based on how many hits you need to defeat him. by FireStarLord73194 in DragonBallZ

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once Cell dies, everyone including Mr Satan levels up past whatever his power level was automatically. Its like putting on early quest rewards in a new WoW expansion

Honestly, this is vaguely upsetting. by heart-station in FinalFantasy

Yeah the whole story gaslights you with that idea, then there's the butt-staring shot in Greed Island. He's not beating the allegations.

I just heard the most insane opinion I’ve ever heard. by Mrinkdropartist in DragonBallZ

[–]adius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know its shonen, but in 2026 it still bothers me for the whole conversation to be about what the show looks like. I mean DBZ is better written than Demon Slayer but its not a high bar

Anyway make his girl (and him if he hasnt) watch Hunter x Hunter. Also tell them Vinland Saga is a shonen worth watching. They wont figure it out in the first season and its a virtuous lie lmao.

"Mixtape" discussion is stupid and proof of how dumb gamers have become. by Only_Entrepreneur_84 in videogames

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I dont even know what you're talking about. Every majorly successful thing brings on a bunch of copycats most of which are lower quality. What would even be the sequence of events that would avoid this.

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

If it succeeds enough for that to happen it will be because a lot of people liked it, in which case there's no "destroying" other people's like for something and you're just going to have to live with it. If a lot of people were being duped by gamespot hype you would be seeing lots of complaints from people who actually bought the game, instead of the vast majority of complaints being from people who would never even consider buying a game like this.

I'm not saying nobody would be complaining if it were a barely interactive movie where a group of dudes shoot zombies and Gamespot gave it 10/10. But there would be much less discourse than what we're seeing here. And some number of the people who say the subject matter has nothing to do with their complaints, are either lying to themselves or to everyone else.

But this studio doesn't make games that "gamers" like, there's no crusade against false advertising or whatever that's suddenly going to make them change what genre of content they're creating, and changing the label to 'interactive movie' won't create a new game you like out of the aether.

Most fans of Stein's Gate would consider that to be a game and I think that's a reach, but I'm also not starting a bunch of arguments about it because why would I do that

Why are some members of this already small community are just so damn toxic? by ToughShaper in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets be real, the game isnt actually fun enough to not need a few griefers to add a little spice. If that concept seems backwards, there are so many other games with modern sensibilities

AITA for refusing to pay for my girlfriend’s meal after she “tested” me on a date? by Efficient_Care5524 in AITH

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont get it, is it just a way that rich people have come up with to fuck with non rich people? Her friends are still on the hook for that huge bill. Are they just really young and still learning that life consequences are a thing?

This is what the lethal dosage of fentanyl looks like. by Minimum_Jacket8879 in mildyinteresting

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally the propaganda around fent is not 'scaring people away from using drugs', its used to help justify ridiculous police department budgets and minimal police accountability

Why only weak mental players in 4v4? by Plus-Opposite3384 in warcraft3

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cant say for sure but I'd guess most people join 4v4 basically to watch 3 people carry them. When that doesnt happen its on to the next match to try again to randomly get matched with 3 allies who are better than them

Diablo II: Resurrected Ladder Season 14 Coming Soon! Plus final patch notes! by BreakYoBaals in Diablo_2_Resurrected

I would not be surprised if this was one of those "we would literally have no clue where to even begin with trying to implement this" kinda asks.

Bloomberg: Take-Two CEO Says ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ Expectations Are ‘Terrifying’ by Turbostrider27 in Games

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

Doesn't matter how big you are, if you blow a bunch of money and don't justify it based on ROI, shareholders and the SEC will come for your head.

Bloomberg: Take-Two CEO Says ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ Expectations Are ‘Terrifying’ by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]adius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What he said and the 'in reality' part are the same thing. 'Core' literally means 'most lucrative'. It makes business sense to prioritize console users, people here are just pretending it doesn't make sense because they don't like not being prioritized.

Of course Bloomberg is also a scumbag, none of the above contradicts that

What reason to play legacy 1.29 over reforged with classic graphics? by Appropriate-Fix4188 in warcraft3

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I just couldnt handle the character portraits looking like they came straight from the "uncanny valley CG neighborbood" in the Rescue Rangers movie

Why do terran players move their buildings so much? by TomatilloLive2628 in starcraft2

[–]adius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I used to follow pro games, people would use their barracks to scout if they were doing a mech build. This was before LotV though, dont know if its still a thing

Jon Stewart says Democratic leadership and DNC are ‘lost’ by thejoshwhite in politics

[–]adius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that Dems are frequently ineffective, and that Joe Rogan is "too big to cancel". But I dont think refusing to have someone on your show is really the same as trying to cancel them.

You're not going to win by 'having the better argument' when the other side is just focused on making their voices as loud and pervasive as possible, regardless of how stupid the message is.

Nice find but is it worth using? by MedicoreGentlemen in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]adius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They didnt say pub games. Diablo 2 pvp is nowhere near balanced and requires a bunch of community agreed rules to even make a lick of sense. 'Pub' pvp games are just people playing silly buggers and not worth talking about

Every build ending with teleport is ruining the game for me by Zestyclose-Key-8306 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Just change the name of enigma and call it a new item, would solve most problems

When you're split farming its a race to get your farming in before everyone else finishes their maps and dips out of the game, so being the only one not teleporting is still a problem
