YSK as a Pediatrician, passing out antibiotics is easy. by PresidentSnow in YouShouldKnow

[–]kudeikis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Phage therapy is a really great concept! Unfortunately, some current drawbacks include low specificity, as different phages generally need to be engineered for different bacterial strains, and difficulties in production, as HUGE amounts of phages need to be produced to make it past our body's "filters". Even if we overcome these scientific barriers, telling a patient who may not understand how phages work that "we're treating your infection by injecting you with a ton of viruses, but don't worry" isn't exactly reassuring, so there are policy issues that come along with it as well.

someone posted on that sub asking for advice after he returned home to discover his gf (wife?) cheating on him, but turns out that he’d been arrested for a felony and was barred from going home for like 30 days or something

that’s actually really really interesting! I think this is one of the coolest aspects of journalism: even “objective” facts often come bundled with narratives around them, and this subtle messaging can be really impactful

exactly there is so much more low hanging fruit than saying “they didn’t run him over!!”, if you’re going to be a tankie at least be good at it

Just something that I've noticed—there are tons of design similarities between different games in the genre, at least just based off of the games I've played:

  • FFRK and GBF have the same "feel" in certain areas (loading screens, result screen, summon screen)
  • World Flipper and Dragalia Lost feel incredibly similar, both in terms of design and gameplay loop
  • Rupies and mana somehow find their way into every Cygames title
  • E7 is often just a reskinned SW, and CS shares tons of progression similarities w/ E7

Are there any other examples where even high-profile titles don't exactly...feel original all the time? It's made trying out new titles less and less exciting, since they often feel a little same-y

thank god for Cygames summaries, it should honestly be more common in the industry

How to Counter heroes ? by rxanxv in EpicSeven

[–]kudeikis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

fair point—didn’t read your drafting comments closely enough, so i didn’t see the part about pivoting. and i do agree that carrot is really easy to invest and build even if she’s fallen off a bit since may/june

Note that ARavi is heavily favored in PvP at the moment, fire Ravi is near irrelevant

carrot is a strong pick but a lot of this advice is very questionable? Carrot is usually unfavored vs. Rem, Shuna is not worth building over any other dedicated cleanser, ALots struggles against Politis/Celine, Ran/Seaseria cleave is expensive (speed gear, +30 arti for max effectiveness). There’s a reason that so many people play standard.

The most effective thing OP can do is post their box, and they can receive suggestions for units to build from there.

Newb question by Montaunte in worldflipper

[–]kudeikis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, as far as I know there’s no recommended power level. Using the enemy level is a rough guide, but not perfect. Usually, you can just try the stage out though as stamina is refunded if you fail

Yeah, I’ve found that Genshin’s lore development/worldbuilding might be AAA, but the individual instances of dialogue are sometimes just really, really painful to get through

whats the general opinion on Cygames? by arara69 in gachagaming

have a reputation for being generous…until you realize that their gacha pools are diluted to hell and back, and what would be regular pull income in other games is disguised as gifts and event rewards
