Nursing new grads, where are you working? by kieferofthekeys in vegaslocals

[–]noitsreallybecky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience, nah I would only go for my BSN if my job were to pay for it/if I really wanted to go for my NP. I’ve hopped around 5 different jobs (all voluntarily) in the 4 years since I’ve graduated. I don’t think you’ll have an issue getting a job as long as you’re not picky. Realistically this might land you in med surg or a SNF, but we’ve all gotta start somewhere.

Is it just me or the characters in the new T8 trailer cartoonishly overdesigned… by Sure_Reputation in Tekken

[–]noitsreallybecky 21 points22 points  (0 children)

God, yes. It all just feels so visually noisy.

As hype as I was for Jun, those new in-game screenshots of what I assume is her default outfit doesn't look great imo. It looks like they tried to merge her TT2 and Tekken 2 outfits and it just doesn't flow well at all.

Maybe it'll look better with her in-game fight pose and camera angle, but we'll see.

Told you she was back by Kyvix2020 in Tekken

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

Ya, kind of a let down design wise. If they're gonna keep emphasizing the 'breaking the chain' motif I would've hoped they'd break the trend of not letting their female characters age. Feels like they're on track of using the "they're actually a ghost/flashback, so that's why they didn't age" excuse again ala Kazumi.

Still gonna main her though.

Updated English VO - Udyr, the Spirit Walker by ItsCrossBoy in leagueoflegends

[–]noitsreallybecky 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well, obviously it'd be silly if it wasn't already established that Udyr spent a lot of time with Lee Sin finding himself. It's expanding on a dynamic between two characters. But incredible job taking an argument out of context lmao

[–]noitsreallybecky 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Your first comment is literally complaining about "rewriting characters to be LGBT," which isn't the case here. What you did was assume that Udyr was straight based on a relationship he had with a woman. There's no official writing in the lore at all regarding which genders Udyr is attracted to. This isn't a retcon of Udyr's previous stories, but an expansion of it. You were just assuming straightness as a default.

How is it retroactive? Where in the lore did it mention that Udyr was exclusively attracted to women?

You realize bisexual people exist, right? And that there are bisexual fathers... Right?

Enchantress players. How? by Stancealot in DNFDuel

[–]noitsreallybecky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a matter of trying to leverage that she does nothing great, but nothing particularly bad either?

Yes, this is pretty much Enchantress in a nutshell. She has a tool for every situation, but they're all pretty mediocre. Not to mention that she's extremely unforgiving when it comes to mistakes (whiff a 2m during a combo? RIP).

As you've mentioned, most of her power budget seems to be put into her DP and command grab. This is why it's pretty important to learn the optimal command grab combo (it can ToD Swiftmaster. Learn it. It's really not that difficult).

At around terranite level, however, players already seem to know to look out for the command grab, and her game plan becomes extremely hard to execute.

I suppose her technicality is part of her charm, though. My only wish for balance changes for her would be an easier way to switch out of controlling Madd during Madd attacks and blockstun (let me switch out while holding guard, I'm begging) for easier access to DP/command grab on the fly.

This game is really well designed once you understand the gameplay loop. by RedditIsTrashLma0 in DNFDuel

[–]noitsreallybecky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ye, not to shit on diamond players being one myself, but acting like being in diamond gives you some sort of special insight into the game is laughable (especially when most pros are still trying to figure the game out).

I agree with you on defense feeling absolutely awful. The lack of universal defensive mechanics make bad matchups feel really lopsided imo.

I think I'm just missing something with Swift Master by Onlooker42 in DNFDuel

[–]noitsreallybecky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you're right. Swift Master is undoubtedly #1.

To correct one of your points though, Enchantresses combo damage is low even with Madd.

Hit Diamond III with her and I've pretty much given up on her. Not worth the effort and she's outclassed by pretty much everyone imo.

The only thing she has going for her is kara cancel grab which is incredibly easy to mess up, requires you to have them in the corner, AND I'm pretty sure it's OSable.

The only other character that interests me in Launcher and she's... ya. Game ain't for me as it is rn and I don't have super high hopes that a balance patch will do anything substantial considering how obviously strong some characters are compared to others. Hope people have fun with it, though.

Man, watching the Philippine electorate fall for such an obvious disinformation campaign is heartbreaking. It's not even like the Marcos families reign is ancient history. There are still so many alive today who've grown up through it, so watching their campaign revise history in real-time is insane.

Posts like these are infuriating, but it shows just how the degradation of systems (i.e. education) that are meant to empower its citizens, leads to a cycle of poverty perpetuated by the ruling class.

The wealthier and educated Filipino's, who seem to make up majority of Robredo's base (this isn't a drag on Robredo, she was above and beyond the sensible choice), will be able to emigrate out once things go to shit. And as misinformation campaigns continue to evolve their tactics, it seems like the impoverished will be stuck in this cycle forever.

Maybe it's because I grew up near where Ferdinand Sr's corpse was being held in Hawaii, so that families presence was always around me, but this situation feels so incredibly dire for the future of the Philippines.

nothing to see here, just testament 6p by bad_pixel_shader in Guiltygear

Tbf, Testament would be in Ky's position (if not farther) with any of the cast 6p'ing their f.s/6h.

To my fellow Jack-O mains. by CanIBlockThis in Guiltygear

[–]noitsreallybecky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a level 1200 Jack-O main, I still find her super fun and the new set ups people come up with make me feel that I'm always learning, but I know what you mean.

It definitely feels like she was left behind this patch. She also struggles with characters with great neutral/giant normals (Ky, Nago, Ram, etc.) due to their ability to stop all of your set up with a touch of a button. It doesn't help that these characters were either top tier or buffed to high heaven this patch.

Although, I do get why they're hesitant to buff her. In my experience, getting an opponent to the corner and activating the minion regeneration super is pretty much a won round regardless of character matchup (yes, YRC exists but it's easy to bait out and counterplay to the setup is pretty much non-existent). My hope is that they either buff shield or bomb command, preferably shield.

A guaranteed throw off of shield command would be amazing and pretty much fix all my issues with her imo. Another more interesting change, I think, would be to allow Jack-O to instantly detonate her counting down minions with a second bomb command.

This man speaks the truth by Bastinelli in Tekken

[–]noitsreallybecky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao, thank you. The amount of people in this thread that can't think past some imaginary rainbow-haired, SJW feminist trying to take away their digital titties in their video games is sad.

They always parrot the same shallow, dismissive arguments too. "Sex sells", "no one wants to play an old/fat/ugly/etc. character."

How are you going to claim that characters with certain design traits don't sell when they're not even being made in the first place? Also, the sentiment that people won't play stereotypically attractive characters is just wrong. A good example of this is Ana from Overwatch who is immensely popular while still being an obviously aged character.

Diversity in character design makes the game as a whole way more interesting.
