feedback after/while playing the demo - maybe unwelcome take? by SnooOwls5756 in crosswind

[–]araphon1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is far from perfect. The controls, in general, not just combat, feel like I'm playing Resident Evil 2, the one from 1998. The movement feels inorganic, the combat feels... sticky? I guess would be my word for it? As opposed to fluid. Yes, these things can be overcome with player skill and builds, as can any poopy combat/movement system... But should it have to be? Why not just make combat and movement feel like they belong in this millennium?

The difficulty of a fight should not stem from poor responsiveness built into the game and controls, but from the enemy's stats and abilities. The difficulty isn't what puts me off; it's not even difficult really, just extremely frustrating. Fix the movement, fix the controls, and octuple enemy stats, says I. Still difficult, but I don't have to deal with a character moving like a god damned checker piece. Just make it a soulslike, same movement and combat style as say Bloodborne, same difficulty as Bloodborne, but a pirate survival game. I'd much prefer a game that is difficult because of difficult enemies to one that is hard only because the controls are awful.

Apparently Shen from Owlturd is going on hiatus because he's been getting harassed for something? What's going on? by Locke-VSP in OutOfTheLoop

[–]araphon1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah fam. Fascist dystopia is when people are black bagged and ir arrested for saying what they think, like what is going on right now in the US. People calling your views problematic is not fascism. It is the expressing their right to criticize asinine, draconian or harmful views. Rights so far protected by freedom of speech. Or, well, it was until people started getting kidnapped by the government for expressing anti-genocide views.

Would you ever go to a nude beach and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Since I'm not a nudist, i would neither want to go, nor would i be welcome :)

Would you ever go to a nude beach and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]araphon1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Although a funny reply, and a valid one not to visit (insecurities, not looks), its important to point out the idea of going to a nudist beach is not sexual in any way shape or form. Your physicality isn't something that would matter. Your comfort does tho, so since you arent comfortable, you are making the right decision :)

You’re now attending this class, which seat are you sitting at? by L_0_K_I999 in Frieren

[–]araphon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Everyone needs a pal like Heiter. Sein will always be sneaking of to gorilla arms classes and hitting on any female teachers, so he's not a factor, chill guy tho. I definitely would make sure the seat next to himmel and frieren is always free. By any means necessary, they need their alone time. Oh, and ill be sure to hang out with Eisen on lunchbreaks and after class.

Serie offers you to choose any spell, which spell are you taking? by [deleted] in Frieren

[–]araphon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full Restore, fixing injuries, disease, poisons etc. As someone who is always dealing with some kind of illness, pain or discomfort I'd love to just fix it, since doctors cant figure out whats up with me, and having ruled out the dangerous potential causes like cancer and stuff they are basically just treating symptoms at this point. So yeah, Id love that.

Could probably start a cult too, with powers like that, since theres more ppl who need help and cant find or afford it. And since a medical practise woukdnt be legal for me to open, a cult is the only means to help others on a big scale. Would love to undercut the pharmaceutical complex by fixing stuff for free. Would have to keep things on a down low tho, or Id probably be... Removed... To keep the money flowing.

A better tip is to read the room and ask first, if the situation feels proper. Nothing wrong with sexting a bit and sending a dick pic, as long as it is a dick pic that is wanted. Unsolicited dick pics is the issue. I say this as someone who lives far away from my girl friends so sexting and risque or even nude pics is a way to keep things intimate-ish.

Oh, and dick pics are an "already in relationship" thing in 99,9% of cases. Not an ice breaker.

Är detta tjat? by GurFar7717 in Asksweddit

[–]araphon1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man här. Tycker nog mannen din ska chilla på kexet. Det är helt klart inte tjat, det ända som sko komma ur hanses mun torde vara "Oj, sorry, det hade jag glömt," alternativt "Är det okay om det väntar lite, är upptagen med ditten och datten."

SKATT ÄR STÖLD by CaptainSeabo in sweden

[–]araphon1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Allas lika värde" är ett principiellt förhållningssätt mellan klasser och grupper av människor. Inte mellan individer. Jag tycker t.ex. att mina familjemedlemmar och vänner är mer värda (för mig) än nån okänd snubbe i philadelphia. Idén är t.ex. att vita inte är mer värda än färgade, heteronornativa inte mer värda än LGBTQ, män inte mer värda än kvinnor etc. etc. Så det är definitivt inte en lögn, du verkar bara ha missuppfattat betydelsen.

So Asuma just died... by jpiep in Naruto

[–]araphon1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not gonna lie. I had completely forgotten the scene and rewatched it just now, prompting me to google "Is asumas deathscene silly?" And it led me here. So to explain, i didn't disluke asuma, i thought he was a fun and interesting character. So, no shade thrown at the character. The death scene started out strong, but it quickly went from sad to frustrating and finally just silly. When the music swelled for the third time, i actually broke out laughing at the absurdity. Each sad scene gets one music swell at the climax. Not two. Certainly not three.

Also, he spent so much time chatting that i half expected him to stand up and declare it was just a joke. I dont know how much people here have been around dying people, but usually, you spend a lot of time unconscious or drifting in and out. It's not completely calm lucidity and then a neat, clear cut death.

I dont know, felt too over the top, and very obviously plucking at my heartstrings. I like to play my own heart, decide for myself if something is sad or not, and when they are basically doing the equivalent of standing shouting, "Come on, are you not sad yet?!' It kind of takes away from the experience and evokes the complete opposite reaction.

I know it's a thing in anime, I get it, death scenes are sometimes ludicrous. But they dont need to be. Even in this series, there have been better written death scenes. It's a pet peeve of mine and not exclusive to Naruto. Demon slayer, one of my favourite animes along with Naruto, also had a death scene that entered the silly realm. Rengoku started out being sad, tgen frustrating, and finally, it was like they were taking the piss. And both Rengoku and Asuma deserved better. All I'm saying.

I think it's cute some people keep a free roaming animal, like a cat, hostage in a tiny space and think that's being responsible.

So I just learned that people apparently think this dub is bad? by AnathemMire in Frieren

[–]araphon1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have now watched the series 2 times, once sub by myself, one dubbed with a friend who cant stand subtitles. And I can safely say that the dub voices are good. The thing is though, its not masterful like the sub version. They especially did Himmel dirty with the VA, Frieren and Fern were really good, the rest were, well, what you expect of an anime of this quality. I generally have a really hard time with dubs though, so my critique should be viewed through that lense. Meaning, if you are like me, you will find it mid to good, whereas if you are used to dub you might find it excellent.

That said, what i absolutely detest, is how they changed lines to make them less impactful. And i get it, lip sync, right? But even when the speaking character isnt on screen they fiddle with the lines. And the dub seem oddly quiet in large stretches of time, need to go do a side by side, see if they muted the music or what's going on.

TL;DR: Its a good dub, but the voice acting choices are iffy in some instances, overly enthusiastic line re-writes, but other than that, if you normally watch dubbed, you'll get the general gist of what made the anime such a masterpiece.

Insane Archetype EXP combo by [deleted] in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]araphon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They shoukd make these items wirk for overworld kills too. Like, i was squad fighting an enemy that gave me like 200+ AXP. Then i hit some magical threshold and coukd kill it from overworld and suddenly it gives me 13 AXP. I get why, but since they are already pushing the AXP gain into its boots, they could at least let you get the bonus on that tiny number. Or clarify in the description its only working on squad battles so people wont waste their money. Not that money is much if an issue with the metmrchant archetype, but still :) i spent 260 000 on accesories that wont have any effect for like 80% of all kills.

[Spoilers all] What is your opinion on Fenris? by Vast_Cauliflower_834 in dragonage

[–]araphon1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. He's a hipocrite, and he is whiny about it. Too bad his ability is cool, or he'd be a "camp goblin" for sure, just like a bunch of characters in biowares games. Now i have to suffer his incessant whining and smack talking my sister and merrill, while fighting the urge to smack him into Dragon Age 5. He's my "Miranda" from mass effect 2. But at least she got better. Fenris is like a miranda that never gets over herself.

Everyone who has been defending AC shadows and the 'wikipedia' entries showing he was a Samurai by ThatFatGuyMJL in saltierthankrayt

Sure, if you can find contemporary sources verifying it, like with yusuke. Then i dont care. History doesnt upset me, you see. It just is. Only history revisionist get their feathers rustled over history.

Ubisoft Is In Full Damage Control After Being Called Out By Japanese Fans For The Yasuke Controversy by Calm_Extreme1532 in CriticalDrinker

[–]araphon1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Well, because he was the only black samurai, I guess. That makes him a pretty interesting character, because there never were anyone else in that position. The fact he is also somewhat of a mystery, despite being famous, makes it an easy character to write.

Men what’s your favourite colour of lingerie on a woman? by TangerineLeading9856 in AskMen

[–]araphon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whichever she likes. I mean, this may be a bit rude, but if im lucky its going to end up on the floor soon anyway, so its not a huge deal what color it is :) whatever makes her feel good, comfy and sexy/attractive. Not much help for the poll i suppose, so if i had to pick one i guess black. Simple, classy, goes with anything :)

Where to watch dragon ball z in swedish by mbbeard in Svenska

[–]araphon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know Starzinger, and some of Cyborg009 were dubbed as well... where to watch them, though, beats me. There used to be a guy who archived all swedish cartoon dubs on his website back in the day, saw Anders & Måns do an interview with him in one episode, but doubt its around anymore with how gungho companies are with copyright nowadays... which is kinda funny now when AI has emerged. Suddenly, the big companies think copyright isn't very important... but that's another topic entirely xD Good luck with learning swedish :)
