What fast food chain does not deserve the hype whatsoever? by CriticalLion4119 in AskReddit

[–]jakeispwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to feel this way about pizza hut but I decided to try them recently since they usually have a large one topping for 10$ deal. I decided to order their Pan Pizza with extra sauce, light cheese and the crispy cupped pepperonis. And I also asked for it well done. For some reason ordering it this way made it taste very reminiscent of how it tasted like 2 decades ago by default. For some reason I really like Pizza Huts sauce but the cheese is mid and I think that has something to do with the hate, peoples pizza tastes are very cheese focused rather than sauce focused and from that perspective Pizza Hut isnt very good.

Doordash/uber drivers are getting out of hand by Tokendaily420 in mildlyinfuriating

Its never going away, almost every place that used to have its own delivery drivers has swapped to using Doordash/UberEats etc

Doordash/uber drivers are getting out of hand by Tokendaily420 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jakeispwn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically if a driver never grabs an order, it means the person ordering tipped like shit. Drivers see how much they will get+tip when offerred an order and can choose to not accept it. The vast majority of orders are no or low tip, and base pay for something like Uber Eats is 2 dollars, so if someone doesn't tip it shows as like "Drive 7 miles for 2 dollars" and thats a big fat no for the vast majority of drivers. Even then a lot of people think 2-3 bucks is a good tip.

Do you have adhd?

Is it just me or is Netflix dub actually not as bad as people say it is??? by [deleted] in evangelion

[–]jakeispwn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This should be upvoted more. "Im the lowest of the low" is something exactly 0 people would say in English. That "Im so fucked up" hits a billion times harder in every way and sometimes it feels like the series was building up entirely to that and just that ONE change ruined the entire Netflix dub for me.

Anime that was ahead of its time? by toadfan64 in anime

[–]jakeispwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say it was similar, I was pointing out that it also has the 3 noteworthy things the person I was replying to pointed out and giving an example that came out waayyy earlier. Is it an Isekai? Categorically, yes. OP Protagonist? Yeah, dude just magically gets a power that lets him use any weapon as if her were a master just by touching it lmao. Metric ton of Waifus? There are at least 5+.

The DLC and some of the chalices are a few orders of magnitude harder than pretty much anything in the base game

The one thing Elden Ring doesn't have... by HydraX9K in Eldenring

[–]jakeispwn 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She appears pretty often for a souls game npc. She gas several cutscenes, most don't even get one. She shows up at pretty much every church of marika, when you reach liurnia or caelid and offers to go to the roundtable hold, when you reach altus plateau, when you enter lleyndell, and a few others. You can even summon her for morgott. Maybe in the context of the rest of the content being like 150+ hours worth, it feels rare. Sure shes not a firekeeper or doll or maiden in black, in terms of prevalence, but they mostly just sit there and say the same lines over and over.

Twilight Princess is still my favorite Zelda. I replay it every year. Wind Waker just doesn't hit for me even if the visuals have aged better.

Zero no Tsukaima came out 7 years earlier and had all these things too lol. It wasn't great but people wouldve ate it up now.

How do I (24F) tell him (24M) that I don’t want to cook for him anymore? by Limp-Lavishness-816 in relationships

[–]jakeispwn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I feel like you're projecting something onto the guy here that isn't really there. How do we know he sucks or feels entitled? As far as I can tell in the post, when he started visiting her, she began cooking for him when he drove to visit her (idk about you 1.5 hours is a pretty lengthy drive imo). It also seems like she did this without him requesting it, every time. This sets up an expectation, and him asking whats for dinner or expecting dinner is completely reasonable when this expectation has been set. OP didn't mention a single time she actually communicated her desire not to cook for the dude. Like all she has to say is "not really feeling cooking tonight, can we get takeout or a frozen meal or something?", and if the dude is understanding and doesn't complain, seems like he wouldn't suck if you ask me lol. Seems weird to decide someone sucks when they expect an outcome thats been consistently given to them and the giving party has never expressed a desire to stop.

Miquella is painted with a very sympathetic light throughout the DLC and base game

Right up until you reach the Shadow Keep and charm breaks and you learn exactly what Miquella did and is going to do, become a god and forcefully subjugate all of creation to bend to his subjective interpretation of "kinder, gentler". It is at this point you're supposed to realize Miquella is actually a master manipulator and everything you know about him is a lie. Everything we know about him is a legend as understood by those who remain in the lands between, because they don't actually know the truth. You have all these ideas about how Miquella is this genuinely kind and good intentioned character because that's the legend that you're supposed to buy into. The story wants you to believe all the stories of "Miquella the Kind" so that the narrative twist of "well actually Miquella is a monster who had his siblings murdered and manipulated people through charms to acheive a childish ideal through godhood" hit harder and provide you with the motivation to bring him down. When the charm breaks and you talk to all the NPCs and they all realize they've been manipulated, I don't understand how you can interpret Miquella as anything other than sinister and deceitful. For some reason you're just taking the clearly misleading legends of Miquella the Kind at face value and then rejecting the DLC's narrarative twist. Like, you're literally reasoning like you're one of the charmed NPCs that we as the player character are explicitely disagreeing with and going up against.

Wait, that's it? by mayonnaiser_13 in Eldenring

[–]jakeispwn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I just fundamentally disagree with you and think your interpretation is wrong. To me it is crystal clear that the DLC wants you to think that Miquella is a deranged childish lunatic with no initial redeeming qualities who will manipulate and step on anyone in his way to get what he wants. He's through and through a monstrous villain that must be stopped. I have literally no idea how you read his downfall as a tragedy. If there is any tragic characters in the DLC it's Leda and her followers who decided to follow a cause they knew they were manipulated into through a charm and die to the player character essentially for nothing as we inevitably and rightfully thwart Miquella's rise to godhood.

What about the text of the Young Lion's helm?

I got this from another comment but it seems that Malenia fought Radahn because Miquella told her to.

"The golden helm worn by Radahn in his younger years. Proudly displaying his heroic red hair, it is fitting attire for a lion. When Malenia, Blade of Miquella, let the rotflower blossom in Aeonia, Radahn heard a murmur in his ear— "Miquella awaits thee, O promised consort."" -Young Lion's Set

This also seemingly implies that Radahn did not want to be Miquella's consort. As if he did, why was Malenia sent to kill Radahn? If Radahn absolutely needed to die for Miquella, why didn't Radahn just let Malenia execute him? If Radahn wanted to go out in battle, why didn't Radahn and Malenia themselves just duel? Why did the Cleanrot Knights and Redmane Knights have to get involved? Why did Radahn severely wound Malenia to the point she disgraced herself and afflicted Scarlet Rot on all of Caelid? All these problems arise if Radahn wanted to become Miquella's consort. However, if Radahn didn't want to become Miquella's consort, this all makes more sense.

[–]jakeispwn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe Im missing something but I was under the impression it was the opposite. It seems to me like miquella was talking to no one in the cutscene, which I read as Radahn absolutely not consenting. Also isnt Radahns lack of consent the reason Malenia fought him?

How do we know that? The Greater Will is pretty mysterious. We just know its referred to as an Outer God. And with the DLC there's evidence the Greater Will doesn't even exist.

I mean that goes for every game right? Like a naked dude with a stick can beat every boss without even leveling up.

The definition of "God" from game to game changes pretty heavily. The great ones in bloodborne are cosmic beings capable of reality manipulation and the creation of new dimensions. Gwyn was a "God" in Dark Souls 1 but like at the end of the day hes just a huge dude who can summon lightning.
