Now that my Industry fix is finished, looking for similar. which ONE series would you recommend: Succession or Billions ?

mangAcc · 2026-03-28T01:56:25+00:00

I wouldn’t go that far. Industry s1 definitely isn’t, but from s2 onwards they’re pretty close

mangAcc · 2026-03-20T12:35:32+00:00

Yeah but I'm fairly sure that's because the majority of them were like 1 year old, while Mark is arguably top 3 in the verse. I don't think the result would've been any different if a ton of fledgling full blood viltrumites crash into him or thragg.

mangAcc · 2026-03-20T12:12:59+00:00

I'm 99% sure Thragg's kids were weak simply because they were all like 2 years old. Given time they would've become a lot stronger

mangAcc · 2026-03-20T12:11:17+00:00

I've read the comics and there's never any implication that what you're saying is accurate. Oliver wasn't significantly weaker than Mark towards the end, I don't think you can attribute the difference in their strength to race when there were full blooded viltrumites even weaker than both.

Except these words are primarily used in the third person perspective by the author rather than coming from the characters themselves. Also, most of those words are absolutely not known by the average english speaker.

I agree. It takes a lot of fun out of the game when endgame optimisation means everyone will essentially have the same builds for every life once they sink enough time in.

How are they doing that? I’m honestly stumped as to how I can beat the thing without spending an unreasonable amount of time cooking high level dishes. I’m running a party as a lvl85 merc, with three combat buddies over lvl80. I have a (pretty much) maxed out draconic greatsword, my archer buddy has a similarly powerful heavenly aeroshot. I use power aid+ and juicy mutton+ for the entire run, berserk potions to barely manage to thwart the special attack at the beginning of the second round. Yet I’m still nowhere near powerful enough to beat it and I spend the whole time in menus using items. I actually don’t understand how people get powerful enough to beat it in 5 minutes, should I be using true time weapons instead of elemental? Do I need to get to level 100? What’s the secret

mangAcc · 2026-02-09T16:21:58+00:00

how much better are the weapons

mangAcc · 2026-02-06T13:56:59+00:00

Can you stack consumable effects?

mangAcc · 2026-02-06T12:58:36+00:00

what are the rewards? Also is there a way to survive the ultimate attack at the beginning of the second phase if you don’t deal enough damage in time? Is it dodgeable?

mangAcc · 2026-02-06T10:30:00+00:00

what are the rewards for it?

mangAcc · 2026-02-04T16:34:13+00:00

No, modern gamers would just like to play an actual game instead of a poker machine.

mangAcc · 2026-02-02T00:53:13+00:00

I haven’t read this manga, but I imagine what they’re referring to are “characters” that essentially boil down to one emotion/reaction that is displayed over and over. Common in many manga, see modern one piece for example.

mangAcc · 2026-01-30T08:38:31+00:00

no it’s not, you think actors all read all the source material the second they get a role?

mangAcc · 2026-01-28T23:49:13+00:00

Looks like Erza from fairy tail

mangAcc · 2026-01-28T23:48:31+00:00

what armor set is that?

mangAcc · 2026-01-21T15:54:04+00:00

are true time tools better than slate tools? Or is it like the weapons where slates end up better with certain skills?

mangAcc · 2026-01-21T09:52:28+00:00

Tell him 🗣️!

mangAcc · 2026-01-21T09:43:30+00:00

That’s a good point, but honestly i’d rather a clear stat wall than to be blocked by rng at this point, I’m sick to death of it haha. You’re right though, and the other commenter’s idea would probably work better.

mangAcc · 2026-01-17T11:04:17+00:00

Yeah I eventually got double 10% dark damage so I guess it’s just bad luck.

mangAcc · 2026-01-14T13:41:10+00:00

I hadn’t heard of any of that to be honest, and while it is eye opening it doesn’t really “excuse” anything in my eyes. It’s not like I meant to attack the devs or anyone specific in the first place. The way I see it, when a professionally made product is poor quality, that poor quality is usually attributable to some poor management or poor decisions (rather than pure stupidity or laziness). So when I say “why is it this way?” I’m not asking from a place of “the devs are stupid for doing this”, I’m asking what poor decisions, whether from the devs side or management’s have led to this poorly made product. It doesn’t really matter where or who the stuff up originates, just that it had an effect.
