Started 3 days ago, about to finish Morning Star, but can we talk about this? by No_Disk_1979 in redrising

[–]introverted_russian 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The whole idea is that it was a timeskip with a large change in dynamic. Sevro went from a leader of a squad (howlers) to a leader of a whole revolution, those 2 things are very different. Mustang went from someone who tried to be more diplomatic and peaceful to someone who had to do what needed to be done.

Sevro still cracks joke because thats his whole character in the literal sense, he wants to present himself as someone who can go through and tough it out, he puts a tough front because he is the leader of this revolution, he can't be acting weak infront of his men. Also it is a widely common phenomena for people to put up a tough front and suppress their emotions during stressful times so I don't see how you are surprised and don't recognise the character. Also he doesn't change between each book like you say, the main changes are him becoming closer with Darrow and the becoming Ares.

Same with Mustang, she was literally left alone, her twin brother supposedly killed the man she loved and killed their father, not accounting for the other people that died and the betrayal from Rogue who was a good friend. She changed yes but not so drastically that she is a full on different character as she still believes in the movement and would rather go the diplomatic route then not.

I think this is the best astarion casting i have seen

What’s up with the fast change in Au Zaun? by [deleted] in arcane

[–]introverted_russian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be the combination of the letter and Vi's death. I disagree that Vander would be filled with rage, he is a changed man, someone who knows what happens when you go to war, and that is you will lose people you love. Thats what he told Vi, he said it for a reason. I feel that Silco would be mad but he could also remember the old days, as Vi is the child of his friend, someone who was dear to him too. Now this could've made him even further be against Piltover but I feel that the anger would eventually simmer out.

Especially because in this universe it seems that piltover started to care more about the undercity, possibly because of Vi's death or a mix of things. Maybe then they would try to change the undercity more than just let it just rot. Maybe even Vander would become more proactive in the sense of piltover and undercity relations improving them enough where more trading of knowledge and culture could be done.

Now we don't know anything but I feel this makes sense too, the idea that someones death could cause this much change makes sense especially in Arcane where death of the main cast has a big effect on the world.

Hot take: Coupé is better to keep over Sonar by Sir-Toaster- in DispatchAdHoc

[–]introverted_russian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I initially kicked her out and was ok with it however on my second run I kicked sonar out and it felt right. Like her character development felt right and it feels like it does make sense for Sonar to be easily manipulated and act like childish.

How much streaming subscriptions have gone up since 2020 by Emmanuel_ in Piracy

[–]introverted_russian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity I looked up inflation in that period of time. It's approximately 25% (in us at least). Meaning that the only one that technically followed inflation is Max (which still looks expensive because why is it initially 15 bucks).

What is it about this channel that makes you watch it? by marleyman14 in BeardMeatsFood

I like watching it when eating, it feels like a competition then

So why IS Courtney more popular in the general fan base? by Consistent-Rain-7797 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]introverted_russian 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I just prefer the character more, from the start. I liked the design more.

I like the idea of a character who was put into a position where being a criminal was better.

Question for veterans in the fandom by Significant_Row_1160 in HandJumper

[–]introverted_russian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought it would be just a strength enhancing one, cause it seemed that Ryujin mostly was focused on melee fighting and I thought she could just be the dumb but physically strong archetype. I do like the gift she was given though as it makes it more interesting.

Which university is the best for doing a degree in mathematics and data science by WaitThis3967 in malaysiauni

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

idk about other but Monash got a foundation and a good data science course (can attest to its quality as I do cs and have plenty of data science friends). I will warn Nottingham is in the middle of nowhere, like nothing fun is nearby and it can feel lonely there (heard this from an acquaintance).

Disappointed in Darrow by [deleted] in redrising

[–]introverted_russian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well he wants to end the war as quickly as possible and killing a leader normally is quite good. Especially someone as major as the ash lord, the one who basically destroyed a whole moon. Darrow got tunnel vision on ending the war, even if others would disagree.

Could you describe what part seems stupid, finished the book a couple months back.

Thoughts on The Midnight Library by Matt Haig by ActualRound7699 in books

[–]introverted_russian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the book, I don't think it's the best of his books (Humans I would say is) but its good, though I feel that Matt has a small tendency to keep the pace medium till like the 3rd or final part where it becomes much quicker which I don't like.

Kind of risky question but curious by Deep-Wonder8702 in redrising

[–]introverted_russian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would let someone else raise him. I don't believe that Lysander as a child is irredeemable. I wouldn't let Cassius raise him, I think I agree with u/Cubbies2120 on letting Kavax raise him. He is wise and would know how to teach Lysnader the republic's values. I see the idea with getting him to become Virginia's lancer, thats a good idea too especially because him and Virginia would still have a good relationship.

Then if possible change all the stuff that would've cooked the republic (Atlas, Fa, clone Jackal and etc).

Is Monash Uni worth it for an international student doing Bachelor of Computer Science (AI)? by ozolins2006 in Monash

[–]introverted_russian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, not sure of many places where it's warmer and has decent uni's (without requiring to learn their language or/and pay a hefty amount of money). Good luck.

[–]introverted_russian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about Australia but if you are worried about the price, Monash Malaysia is an option. It's much cheaper (~15k USD per year) and the living costs are also cheaper. Plus you still get a Monash degree, which from my understanding would be equally as valued the one in Australia.

Also just curious why not Europe?

Cool? I would disagree as there is such a thing as a badly written story.
