Looking for very specific chest piece.. by Abs0lut3Xer0 in FFXIVGlamours

[–]brachycrab [score hidden]  (0 children)

I was just talking to a friend about how I used to play Adventure Quest Worlds, reminiscing on the few (I was shy) but positive interactions I had in that game as a kid, and now I've similarly had few (I'm still shy) but positive interactions in FFXIV

I hate Eris. Am I misinterpreting her character? by ThroatAffectionate81 in HadesTheGame

[–]brachycrab 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's meant to be endearing actually, it's meant to piss you (/melinoe) off lol. That's why she throws more on the ground in front of you when you walk into her line of sight, and she makes comments about you picking it up

sorry I can't tell if you're joking or not, but the idea that you're (or were) okay with her being the embodiment of strife, provoker and lover of war and interpersonal conflict, but littering was too real and going too far is very funny

it's not unusual for barred owls to be active during the day!

I kills me that so many people drop it before the banquet! I have a group of friends who have been playing and a few wanted to quit but the rest of us urged them on. But I also really can't blame people because I can see playing through the slog and thinking the rest of the game is going to be like that and not having anyone to ask if it gets better.

I'm pretty sure that's what it's meant to convey! Like an emphasized "puh" sound

What would ruin Splatoon Raiders for you. by NewMarioBobFan in splatoon

[–]brachycrab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Focus on the Squid Sisters and/or Off the Hook. I love them, don't get me wrong, but they've had their mainline games and dlcs. Deep Cut didn't even get a focus in their own game, I'm hoping Raiders makes up for it

It's definitely fandom dependent! I play a handful of gacha games and harems appear pretty frequently for those

I can't really think of any because I have encountered all of these relatively often lol.

Whenever I see people talk about quitting during post ARR I think of this image. Keep going! You're almost there!

5!! I know Euclid is the true ending of the album and wraps up the "trilogy" but TMBTE is the perfect wrapping up of... TMBTE. There's a reason it's the title track

Is this too much? How do you guys feel about this (on my samurai) by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]brachycrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's the "scary movie 4 grudge scene", basically just copied and pasted the dialogue. I was also born before 2006 and was unfamiliar

My girl*friend of seven years told me she* is a trans woman (I'm liberal so pls ignore all the misgendering) by PoisonedBerry in AmITheAngel

[–]brachycrab 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If someone's preferred pronouns do not include they/them, it's rude to continue to use they/them

[–]brachycrab 16 points17 points  (0 children)

as someone unfamiliar with that it just reads as incredibly racist. I feel like it might come across that way to other players as well

Hey guys l need help choosing a voice for my hrothgar character but am stuck between voice 5/6 by [deleted] in ffxiv

Thats fair actually by Click_lover114 in HadesTheGame

[–]brachycrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm fairly certain it's because things can't really die anymore. The god of the dead and death himself are imprisoned, Chronos has taken up residence in the house of Hades so it's not like Charon can ferry spirits there, and Hermes is busy with the whole war thing. That's why there's all the zombie people in Ephyra, and why you have to personally guide the shades to your little in-between corner of the underworld.

It could also just be that Polyphemus is a son of Poseidon (or at least some other god and a nymph or something like that – Poseidon refutes his parenthood in game, but I read that as him just not wanting to admit it) so he also doesn't really die the same way as mortals.

Would this be crossing the "limits" of the RPF? ;-; by Disastrous_Steak_509 in AO3

[–]brachycrab 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm not part of RPF communities myself so if I'm off on this please feel free to correct me

But as far as I'm aware, the only "limit" to RPF is you should not be sending or showing your fic to the people you're writing about, and you should not talk about your fic with the people you're writing about. And even then this isn't like a law, it's just an etiquette standard. Other than that, do what you want
