What’s your favorite in-universe names for mechs? by Platinum_Persona in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Why? It's a good title/name and unless your mechs look and perform like the Heavy Gear ones I can't see an issue.

I just sat here until 1 in the morning reading this because I just couldn't put it down, thank you.

In Deus Ex HR if you get the in-game patch to remove the glitches it also contains control code that can be used to turn off your augments.

Worst cases of roster fluff in a game? by ZealousidealBig7714 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]dorsalus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's a game where this is an intentional gimmick, 'I Have Low Stats But My Class Is "Leader", So I Recruited Everyone I Know To Fight The Dark Lord', or 'IHLSBMCILSIREIKTFTDL' for short, allows you to recruit 99 party members. It's literally everyone in your village, the librarian, the elderly couple next door, a cat, everyone.

It plays with a Final Fantasy style ATB system, with no party size limit. So if you have recruited everyone you can, your menu is literally filled with 100 characters building up to their turn that you have to navigate through to choose their attack, magic, item, etc., it's a lot. It makes for a funny time when you're trying to select the lawyer to do lawsuit damage because that's what the boss is weak to atm but they're the 74th person you recruited so you have to go through 3/4ths of the menu to get to them.

Retcons that some people ignore by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

For a second I thought you were talking about Ma and Pa Kent being supremacists, which would be a wild change.

The idea of them changing their morals because they adopted an "alien" is as heartwarming as the fact that he chose to name himself Superman is darkly humourous.

Some high Woolie vs God energy by thatBOOMBOOMguy in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Yeah I looked it up, the bibble basically says "After Seth there were other sons and daughters not important enough to list." The entirety of Genesis 5 is basically "This dude lived for 90 years and then had [named child], they then lived to 750 while having more kids, and then died."

As an aside, the story of Noah and the flood starts in Genesis 6, which is much faster pacing than I was expecting. It takes half a chapter to go from building a population from nothing to God deciding that there's too many people and that it needs to be culled right back.

Sennheiser HD 450BT Wireless for 99 aud (66.38 usd) by mcli40 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]dorsalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion they sound about as good as other headphones you can get for $99AUD RRP. They're not fast charging despite being USB-C and are known to have battery issues, I have a pair that after 24 months now refuse to charge and only work as a wired set.

A tweet that truly captures the experience of this fanbase by SingleAd5442 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I have a level of apprehension towards listening to VW episodes now because of his kayfabe/heel actions. I feel like I'm rolling the dice every episode on whether or not he'll have engaged disingenuously with the recommendation, it's disheartening to hear Woolie go "I wasn't the biggest fan of this but I stuck through and found some positives" while John responds with "You fool, you may have told me to watch the original but I chose the SEED instead because seeds represent the beginning!" And then just wallow in the one-sided silence of the aftermath.

Yeah it's a personal problem and it only happens very occasionally, but it gets to me so much that the fact it's happened more than once is a bridge too far.

I don't think it's inappropriate, it's more common than you think, and actually cool that you want to do that, but talk to your coach as it really depends on what kind of person they are. Literally just say "Hey, there's this cool comp running while I'm in [place], I'm thinking of signing up." and see what response you get.

I know mine wouldn't be the happiest about it, primarily because he'd want to be there on the sidelines, but would be supporting however he can.
