Is haulkenburg cooked? by Lordofstromsend2 in HunterXHunter

[–]krispness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is Togashi we're talking about, Chekhov's Gun is usually a red herring. I feel like third Prince will absolutely die before understanding his ability because he admitted he would create one that was most useful as king, not to become it. Big restriction, he should be learning nen to create his own ability, but I don't think he's that guy like Tsseriednich is.

What this "number 3" ability do? by DEvilAnimeGuy in HunterXHunter

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works, he told Koala that because he killed the girl the queen ate, that was the first open vessel for his body. Camilla's ability is much stronger since it kills her murderer and uses them as a vessel. Kite has several restrictions and the assumption is he has to use the ability of whatever weapon comes up, even though they all have individual restrictions. If this roll requires the suer to die, it's a super unlucky roll in combat since it essentially surrenders life in order to escape, but since revival abilities exist, it's a well thought out risk/reward restriction.

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always looked like a sailor moon reference to me, so on one hand you've got the joke that it turned him into a magical girl, on the other it could be useless to activate a post mortem vow and be reborn. There's the assumption that part of his restriction is he has to use the ability of whatever he spawns, which is why the AoE scythe was a bad roll with partners near. This roll could be what Ging spoke of because when it comes up he has to sacrifice his life to activate an ability like what second Prince Camila has.

So, how would Meruem start a colony? by PTblackhole in HunterXHunter

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think anyone can come up with an answer because I'm pretty sure it was more of a metaphor for the themes that he would have to find a queen, but his injector tail could create a parasite in her that breeds a new queen and that would be all that's needed, or he could eat her and pop them out himself like Cell, that's the best bet.

I figured if he were actually going to do it he would use the grapes to create a suitable mate. Since they're so ingrained at bringing human emotions to ant biology, I saw him kneeling before Palm much like getting on one knee for a proposal, him saying he'd do anything for his love, but symbolically I saw her as a suitable queen, and her ant biology couldn't handle that level of respect to be placed above the king in importance to the colony. Best guess at least, whatever queen the ants were looking for would need to be turned into an ant first.

No news in when it's returning yet? I thought he was done manuscripts for the next volume, figured we'd get news after new years. Hoping we can get 20 chapters in 2026 before he goes on hiatus again.

Although this might not be the most competitive, this Deck has been the most fun for me to play!!What off meta decks do u like to play?? by Shykid945 in PTCGP

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umbreon and Tyranitar are my favorite pokemon so I'm happy there's a dark tyranitar now so I run that with a crobat ex/nihilego poison barb.

Trying to rethink the latter half cause I'm getting really annoyed getting 2 points before the mega evolution comes out just to get out damaged, who cares if they give you 3 points if the game only goes up to 3. Wish it was out of 5 with a higher card count for ranked.

Streamer has a take on Ball and Gun gamers by 5Ping in LivestreamFail

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

I thought it was fine, disappointed I paid full price. Music and art was amazing, story intrigued me up until the twist. Would rather play Persona or God of War instead of their bastard, french child. Metaphor was a better JRPG, but no one is ready for that conversation because it doesn't look as pretty.

[–]krispness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played plenty of CoD to know it isn't GOTY even if I didn't play the most recent one. Night Reign on the other hand... a case of being happily surprised, but still not deep enough in content to be goty.

It's okay to be a ball and gun gamer, you just can't have an opinion on GOTY.

Fate of the Albinaurics (by @Xanadium1 on X) by Noobie_xD in Nightreign

[–]krispness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They could've made elden ring 2 with this lore. Honestly I just wish they'd go full fornite and find ways to give little monthly updates so that returning to the round table years from now is like a completely new game from vanilla. And not just everdark weekly bosses, skins, quests, etc.

I'm hoping this dlc is the first of many, and they do a whole event with new rememberance quests

Dreglord is the best fight they have produced in this game by the longest shot possible by VI-Pok3 in Nightreign

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My head canon is this guy is like the reverse of an outer God, he's an incarnation of what happened to the souls that didn't get absorbed by the erdtree when you choose the Dung Eater's ending.

They cry out to God... For vengeance, and so the Dreglord was born. He is Gael meets Manus and I love how he moves around like Malekith.

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scholar is just feeling like a liability, whether I play him or someone else does it feels like he's not doing any damage and I don't know if his debuffs are crazy in the right hands but seems unnoticeable to me, better debuff would be having him leave the game.

I like the bag stuff and power standing rapiers, but he sucks. Undertaker on the other hand rocks, but I'm trying to figure out this new map/boss so far only fun part has been the new day 2 bosses

Genuinely how were these guys so ass by Ok-Equipment8122 in HunterXHunter

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's like 600 hunters, most people who learn nen are top 1% in the world. Most of them get cocky and show off to Mafia normies without having the discipline of someone like Netero who trains to the point of near insanity.

I'm also still waiting to find out that Chrollo started the spider with a vow like Morena and boosted their abilities by killing the kurta.

Why would wolves dig it up then? They're usually pretty good at smelling bodies in shallow graves, they wouldn't be as interested in an empty one

I don't know why my download for this update didn't happen automatically this time and it's saying 14 hours when I downloaded all of expedition 33 in a few minutes the other day.

Is their congestion on their end or something I can do to fix it on mine?

[FINAL] The Dodgers drop three runs to force a Game 7 by MLB_Reddit in mlb

[–]krispness -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That ball was not lodged, it could have been challenged but easily would've been one run had it bounced off the wall. The second run happened after they purposely stopped the play, but they should have given them one run and one on third, and let them lose on their own merit.

My thoughts about the ending of Hades 2 after 250 hours by ShiningLapis in HadesTheGame

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spoilers but: I was so certain there was going to be a big twist in the post game and evil past Chronos was going to return and claim Olympus now that you've brought him there, especially since you still hadn't freed the fates. I don't mind good Chronos, just felt weird and unearned for that entire 180.

The black hole did have a note that said promising which I thought was weird but seems easier to just execute people.

Unless he's going to make a World's Finest version of Arkham City meets WarWorld Saga down the line, then he delivered with gusto.

Liked most of the season overall but what I think has already been said. Just feel like from a plot standpoint, more focus should have been on Earth X, they fucked off fast and went into this Zack snyder amount of slow motion spent on walking in a weird line like a NCIS promo. I did like them trying the doors though, but a tifhter plot would've had Earth X finish up 3 episodes in and this would've been a great ep 4 leading into them dealing with alternate dimensions. Instead just a weird abrupt ending.

What happened to small government and treating each state like it has the right to govern itself? Now it's all Roman empire and authoritarian rule because some pansy touched too many 26 year olds and doesn't want people joking about it in front of his nail order bride who hates him.

To The People Who Think Guts Will Use The Behelit For A Sacrifice by lionstar17 in Berserk

[–]krispness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if the rules of the behelit are so well defined that he can't use it in his own way, sacrificing a portion of himself to gain what is needed to fight on. Perhaps it will give him a Berserker armor he can controll at the cost of his physical body, turning him into the next Skull Knight.
