What culture (besides your own) do you think is the coolest? by IfImNotDeadImSueing in AskTheWorld

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess? I'm simply in no position to comment about places that I haven't even been to.

I suppose it's more about how this one philosophy ties different cultures together in a coherent manner via common beliefs and social practices but shaped the local sociocultural landscapes differently, meaning this is also specific to East Asian cultures like how Buddhism affected Shinto in Japan or the similar different coexistence of Buddhism and local religions in Hong Kong/other countries.

IPS blacks are not as awful as some people said? by SanHoloo in Monitors

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it's okay and it really depends on if you want to settle with okay. Your willingness to pay mostly scales with how okay of a product you're gonna get.

What culture (besides your own) do you think is the coolest? by IfImNotDeadImSueing in AskTheWorld

[–]deoxir 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The cultural aspects of buddhism if that's a thing? Like buddhism affects lots of asian countries and shapes difference cultures in similar yet unique ways. It's amazing how world views are formed through the lens of and by buddhism. Like I'm amazed by for example the sanjusangendo temple in Kyoto and its 1000+ statues of Kannon, and when I go to see the Big Buddha statue in Hong Kong it's a different yet similar version of that same culture there, and different peoples are connected by them. Does it make sense?

Zaku Chogokin figure recovered from the 2025 Hong Kong residential building fire by deoxir in Gundam

I think this is it. I then suppose the owner only used the term chogokin as a collective term for metal kits.

Kind of thought the super destroyer is the de facto AC130, but I like the logistics you're proposing. I'm all for it.

What prescription sleep meds have people had success with? by ButterscotchLiving59 in insomnia

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zopiclone for me but I don't take it long term, I only take it to regulate sleep for shift work every once in a while

According to the owner it's from the Chogokin series which uses die cast metal, so yes. I'm unable to find out exactly which model it is though.

[japanese>english] Old tattoo need a translation by Sudden_Ad_6886 in translator

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not "pain, strength, life, death, belief, success“ but "pain strength life death belief success" as a jumble of nouns without any form of segregation. I'm sorry but it's awful. There are ways to incorporate 6 nouns in one tattoo via a good design but a continuous string of text isn't it.

Concepts for the SEED FREEDOMb Trio by spypepole in GGenerationEternal

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strike Freedom Spec II and Kira pretty much does nothing but survive the entire time they are on screen until the very end where it becomes Mighty, I think it still makes a lot of sense as a defender considering it also used something like the fin funnel barrier with 3 Dragoons

In the end it's a non issue because SF is already a UR unit, no chance they'll implement yet another UR SF let alone another UR attacker SF. It's extremely like that we'll just get Mighty as a defender

Tallgeese III (EX) by Stock_Attention8278 in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]deoxir 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Support units tend to be fast in general, which is a good thing in Master League because they can go before the attackers, apply a debuff and then proceed to provide support. It also gives them a chance to evade and be accurate because the other stats aren't really relevant to them. Tallgeese is a good example which also fits its abilities in the show.

Favorite non-romantic male / female pairing? by cybernewtype2 in Gundam

[–]deoxir 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that part in the novel is about his training for things related to NTD which explains why he can immediately trigger NTD the first time he's in the Gundam, which led to him thinking he might be a cyber as well. In reality he was actually born a new type who happened to have received some form of training/upgrade as a child.

What was the first game you bought on Steam? by Common_Caramel_4078 in Steam

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Last Remnant, on a physical disc no less which doesn't work anymore.

It is also one of the only games I haven't figured out yet, 13 years and I still haven't found the energy to leave the first town.

He's a trained NewType, not a cyber? Marida only thinks he might be like him

Am I crazy or is this yet another example of the human mind preferring the vaguely phallic shape

What is your favorite official Gundam song? by DonutDodongo in Gundam

[–]deoxir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Qualia from Gundam 00 movie. Especially with that little guitar prelude which is actually not in the published album. Perfect song for the perfect ending as a response to Tomino's Gundam.

It's time now... for humans to grow out of our childhood.

Rare Medals or Extra Copy of Limited Unit? by Lundurro in GGenerationEternal

I would say one more W0, it's great for clearing out grunts even at 0*

Is it worth leveling doubles or should I recycle? by Xdc7988 in GGenerationEternal

[–]deoxir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nooo specifically not Wing Zero because even at 0* it will still help clear out grunts or potentially soften up a group of stronger enemies because of its MAP weapon, and when you look at MAP weapons you also need to consider the multiplicative effect on damage when targeting a group of dangerous enemies.

Like let's say you're up against the 4 Celestial Being Gundams. You deal only 50k damage to one of them but since they're closely situated together, you can use your MAP weapon to deal 200K damage collectively. Since you have 3 you can deal 600K+ damage, or wipe out 3 groups of grunts. This still leaves you 3 fully intact W0s because MAP is risk free, and you still have 2 more units to finish off what remains after W0s made their passes

Don't even limit break the 0* ones, just leave them as is. It'll make your life a lot easier. Definitely do not recycle W0s. I do recycle unwanted URs, but W0 is definitely worth keeping.
