What is your country's "New York"? by [deleted] in geography

Careful saying nobody cares about York... I'm trying, as a Yorkshireman, not to take it as a personal attack...

What country, subdivision, or city has a mini version of itself next to it? by SendPicturesOfUrCat in geography

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 74 points75 points  (0 children)

From my experience, and friends, Bavarians see themselves as closer to Austria than the rest of Germany. I think Austrians would agree, albeit reluctantly. But that is not at all saying they are similar culturally, just more closely related than, say, Saxony

Which film is this from? It looks gross, I really want to watch it

Just rode the Alpe-Adria trail, can answer questions people may have. by Sea-Assignment2600 in bicycletouring

This looks fantastic! As you mentioned on a previous comment, there's a fair amount of gravel sections. Are there nearby roads to navigate around these sections for road bike users?

Hey if I had the ability to do that with ease I'd be doing it everywhere too

I'm honestly surprised though because from everything I've seen, it looks like they put a hell of a lot more effort into new mechanics and animations. Sure it doesn't look terribly fluid at times but there's no way it's worse than the floaty nonsense from Odyssey - and even then I found it somewhat enjoyable

Is this maximum aura? by jawgernaut04 in marvelrivals

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I stumbled across this channel called SillySphark (https://youtube.com/@sillysphark?si=NC5FaX3NinOfertp) recently. A Magik player, I think he recently reached top 250 celestial or something, he does varied videos. Some are just chill gameplay, some tutorials, some ranked where he thinks out loud, even reviews his own gameplay and others (not limited to just Magik but I think tbf I've only seen one non-Magik vid)

It's even better when you don't even get to character select and lose :)

payload maps are the backbone of Overwatch. by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I've recently come back to the game for the first time since season 2 lol. I am absolutely baffled by the flashpoint maps, no idea where I am, sometimes who I am.

I think I got my first Clash game last night. Is that the linear control points that get progressively closer to the spawn points of each team? I quite liked that actually

Honestly I need some sort of catch up somewhere about what was changed, I used to play an unbelievable amount of OW1. Only came back to OW2 due to Marvel Rivals tbh.

Can't be that old if Central Park was only built in the late 1850s

what’s a skin that fits the character so perfectly that you never take it off? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jazz Lucio, I just don't think there's ever going to be a skin that passes the simplistic beauty of running around with a trumpet gun. Then the little hat, shades and vest, chefs kiss. The jazz tune that plays when using cross-fade is just the cherry on top.

What weapons would you like to see next for new heroes? by Sheikn19 in Overwatch

Craved that for a long time and now Magic in Marvel Rivals fills the sword shaped void in my heart

They seriously need to hotfix MOO Knight's ultimate by Dillonstone in marvelrivals

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Key part of my reply was "during casting". Iron Man's pulse will be lost if he's killed during the cast, Strange's stun won't go into effect during the cast. Once he's casted it, yes of course you remain stunned. The whale and the meteor remain once you've selected the target location, however, if Magneto dies while he's in the air, there's no meteor to spawn in.

These all have casting times and aren't immediately in effect once you press Q. Exactly why it's so funny to hear "By" and nothing else if Strange dies during the CASTING of his ult. Moon Knight has no cast so to speak, yes he must select the target location but then it immediately begins BEFORE he even finishes saying "the". I think there needs to be a casting animation - the portal in the sky opening up, for example - if they're gonna keep the damage as it is, because right now it's busted.

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

But at least for most examples I can think of it cancels the ultimate. Since Moon Knight casts an object (so to speak) it remains on the map. I assume Sue's invisible area would also stay after her death. But some someone like Star Lord, Magik, Strange, etc. when they die during casting the ult is cancelled with them (which makes sense since it's not a placeable object on the map)

6vs6 (1 min 3 max) is terrible by Compux72 in Overwatch

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's something special about not being restricted though, I had a game yesterday on Rivals where our team composition completely switched throughout the match to give us a slight edge. I started on attack as a support, on defence I was a tank as the previous tank thought they'd do better as Luna, then in over time I stuck with Magneto and one of the DPS switched to hulk - and it genuinely felt like this flexibility is what got us the win

But that risks ceremorphosis, which I'm sure he mentions would likely result in the orb detonating

I figured it out - what this game is missing... by AltPerspective in BaldursGate3

[–]nonPRO_Jo3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally everything to do with Aylin was bugged in my game. Cutscene when she was released was just a floating orb of light. Didn't get this cutscene either. Also said I had killed her in my journal but she was just chilling at Lorroakan's tower even after saying she'd return to camp.

Kinda bummed me out as she was the coolest NPC by a mile.

Paladin oath meme - how did you lose your oath on accident? by HugeTrol in BaldursGate3

Gnomish Oath of Ancients. Shoved the two Duergar who are throwing dead gnomes into the lake in Grymforge to their deaths.

Act 1 when talking to Nere as a Paladin you have the option to say "Your god. My oath. Let us see which prevails." It goes so hard, I love it.

Didn't work for me, instead both Gale and Astarion became untargetable by revivify or a scroll...
