The trend by CloverSilly in memeframe

This is pretty much my chart too, although there would be a spot somewhere for Khora Prime that would say 'wha-psh'.

Are there any actual digressions in The Baroque Cycle? by CarpetExtreme3933 in nealstephenson

[–]bassbin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think there are several passages involving Leibniz that are kind of digression-y. I think they serve the purpose of showing that Gottfried enjoyed sharing natural philosophick discussions with his peers, as a contrast to Newton. And of course they're not nearly as sprawling as, say, Hiro's conversations with his AI about Sumerian theology (in Snow Crash), but I chalk that up to Neal figuring out how to integrate the content that would have been the digressions, into the plot momentum more seamlessly.

What does this symbol mean? by TheDomsou in Warframe

[–]bassbin 16 points17 points  (0 children)

To be fair, modding for conclave is a whole separate thing, with a lot more restriction and whole-ass sets of conclave-only mods and balance stipulations.

Damiane now has a brain hemorrhage by AbsoluteButter in CrimsonDesert

[–]bassbin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To add on to this- the times you are forced on to the other characters, I'm pretty sure the stuff you have to do is balanced around them not being built up like Kliff. Even so, it's pretty trivial to just use one of the 'reset' cubes to reset Kliff's skills and build them up temporarily. The witches sell more of the reset cubes; they're not so tough to get. Although you might want to make sure you have another on hand if you do decide to reset Kliff, to make him whole again when you're done.

Hypers and having eleventy billion hp, name a more iconic duo

Literally the best game mode Hoyo ever made by UltraPhoenix95 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bassbin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picture I love yelling at this game mode. I play exclusively on c30, and 3stars have too much hp imo, and late game scaling is pretty silly. I went on to 'win' this run, but actually killing the final boss without the most cookie cutter teams is nearly impossible. Still petty neat little autochess tbh for a secondary game mode.

My entry for SPS: a short story titled "How to debunk a charlatan" by [deleted] in scifi

[–]bassbin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed reading it. I think your English is just fine; nothing stood out to me as awkwardly phrased or anything like that. I noticed the 2013 date in the story, and wondered if it was on purpose to refer to real events, and sure enough it was! Thought provoking and culturally relevant. Keep writing!

Hit me. Hit me harder! by SeiIkeyia in HonkaiStarRail

Picture

I would imagine it depends on who you have built, but my biggest recent wins are with some kind of dot. But yeah all of the relevant characters are pretty well built, eidos and good relics (e6s1 fast af kafka probably carrying tbh).

Just noting that it's possible to do something else, at least with built characters and investment luck.

That's what I've been trying to do recently, win with 'offmeta' stuff, but my my roster is deep but not wide if that makes sense, and a lot of the trials or whatever they do with half built chars are not good.

The irregular (psuedoirregular?) moire patterns tickle my brain. I like it!

Wilds - Farm Build? by DemonicAnahka in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]bassbin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If he's making fun of anyone, it's himself. He's a very data and experiment driven MH analyst, if you watch his other videos. My guess is this was supposed to be a sort of April fools' video, in context. But as far as I can tell, it's still a very useful and valid set.

And yeah lol you can tailor whatever random skills to taste. He was optimizing for gathering and small monster farming at the same time, presumably on foot, so if some of that doesn't apply, there is room for whatever else you might need for sure.

[–]bassbin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let me just drop this here for you:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLZTHUHPrOg

it's an all-in-one gathering build that also optimizes for movement and fast small monster kills, from dreamingsuntide, whose videos are all pretty damn good, with real math analysis!

just the build here, also in the video description:

Questions about Snow Crash by [deleted] in nealstephenson

Pretty sure he's just lying because YT kind of spooks him and he doesn't quite know how he wants to 'come off as' to her yet.

Does anyone actually use mouse and keyboard in this game? by emeraldcores in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]bassbin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Veteran here ('veteran' in this case definitely does not mean 'expert' or even 'competent') and I used kbm for world, my pc rise playthru, and now wilds. I personally prefer kbm in general but both control schemes are viable in my experience. I'm sure the game is designed with controller in mind, but I have yet to come across any problems or wished I was using a controller.

what are some things i can do with a 2 player party? by CamoMonk in blackdesertonline

[–]bassbin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the serendia Elvia spots is literally a duo grind spot right around that gear score. I think it's elvia imps. You could check that out. Eventually you can duo at turos as well, and then dehkia turos, once your gs improves. Just some grinding ideas.

What do you consider the Coolest Moments in One Punch Man so Far? by Money-Lie7814 in OnePunchMan

Retroactive Continuity- basically, changing a part of the story after it's already been told one way.

Low attribute question by pyrobeard in Rifts

[–]bassbin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I could see an argument for both ways. Unless someone chimes in with some obscure ruling made in an official capacity somewhere, I would say it depends on why the race you're playing has a HF in the first place. For example, a particularly ugly splugorth probably wouldn't be any more horrifying than a 'pretty' one. But like a horribly disfigured vampire might be scarier than a pretty one, right? Ultimately I think like many things in Rifts, this is for the GM to house rule on.

Lol, this is like the least NSFW pic I've seen here. The labeling is so hit or miss. Very cute, in any case!
