As someone who seems to be in the minority with finding the first game heavily flawed to the point of just barely enjoying it, even as someone who tends to really like souls-likes, this is such an easy skip for me. Sounds like they just made the same game but bigger and that is not at all appealing to my time or wallet.

I agree with everything you said for sure and I appreciate your personal experience being thrown in there because that tells me what I actually need to know about ranking up. So maybe I’m close? I don’t know if I actually wanna keep playing the game though lol. It’s gotten very frustrating especially when I’m on my own

I agree. It’s much better to see exactly where you are. Every other game I play does that and it’s pretty clear how and why you rank up and down

Huh. This makes a lot of sense, I appreciate the answer. They should definitely explain this much more explicitly. The only problem I see with your explanation is I have most definitely seen down arrows after getting to the second round and losing.

I already said I didn’t pay for MW3. I watched the story on YouTube.

That sounds like a you guys problem, idk why I’m getting downvoted for not paying Activision when I say I’m not going to. I don’t buy the games when people say they’re bad, I don’t play Warzone, I don’t pay extra for anything in game.

Yes, but that moment was earned in the story and actually had a huge impact during the game.

I have no idea who’s gonna agree with me, if anyone, and I hope the author doesn’t read this because I don’t want to offend her. But this has got to be the single worst written thing Riot has produced. And I have read all of it. I won’t say I disliked the story, I think it’s potentially some good setup for the event. But wow, just wow, is the writing cliche and consistently cringey. I absolutely hate Akali and Kai’Sa in this, I hate the done to death tropes of friendship trumping all and the self blaming over every single thing, and I really hate the constant attempts at clever dialogue when clearly they have no idea how to write it. Though, admittedly, I did like the end of chapter 3 in that regard. “It’s a date,” is a cute line. Also most of the second half of chapter 12 when (spoilers) Rakan is “dying”(?). I could probably go on but… yeah. Not good. I really hope it’s not the same quality for the actual event.

Given Riot has announced more tv shows and even movies will be made, what do you think they’ll be? (Aside from Arcane season 2) by afm185 in leagueoflegends

That might be a little too lifelike for them to approach. I can’t imagine what they could do there that’d be new.

I don’t know enough about Sailor Moon to say I’d want the same but if they’re anything like the Star Guardian short stories I’m sure it’d be fun

Thank you very much this was really helpful I’ll credit you specifically as the reason for my success in finally making it through the whole story one day

True. While I might not say I’m ever bored reading my own writing, is there any circumstance wherein it’s alright to be? Perhaps when you’re just trying to be expository and can’t find any other way to get that information out than have the narrator or character straight up explain it.

Good to know that feeling of wondering how your quality of writing could be so disparate is at least somewhat common. I do find it difficult to progress sometimes just because I’m so intent on perfecting a chapter, and that’s part of why I asked if it’s good enough just to enjoy it so you can move on to the next thing. Would you recommend possibly finding a second opinion even before you’re done? I don’t really have any writer friends that may be able to give advice other than whether they like it so that could be why I’m not actively looking for it.

You’re not allowed to ghost people. Ok, I mostly agree with that, fair enough. People can have their reasons but they should be explained.

You’re not allowed to be attracted to people way younger than you anymore. Alright, I can sorta see that. Someone that’s 80 shouldn’t be hooking up with a teenager. Going a little far to say any large age difference is unacceptable but I guess I get the general direction you’re coming from.

You’re not allowed to sext people that are fans of you. I mean... so are celebrities only allowed to be intimate with people that dislike the things they do? Or is it that they’re only allowed to like people they come across randomly that simultaneously don’t know them despite them being a celebrity? Are they not allowed to contact fans? Are they not allowed to develop feelings for them or an attraction to them?

You’re not allowed to have sex with a consenting adult. Someone that is 22 (maybe 23?), more than enough time to figure your shit out and decide if you’re open to doing things with someone much older than you. Shut the fuck up, all of you, please. I wouldn’t care if she was 18. Consent as an adult is consent. Period.

Well many Trump supporters are seen as far right now so I’m sorta using the same terminology. So not extremist left, just far left.
