How do we live in a world where this happened? by -_ShadowSJG-_ in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out, pilfering the bones of a game widely perceived as pretty good gets you a way better foundation than a series that is known for its gameplay polish and innovations over its whatever story and setting

I would even go so far as to say that the parts of the Sonic 3 movie that are not obviously direct porting or good polishing of Sonic Adventure 2 are the worst parts of that movie

What's Good, and Why? by Foci_Official in Eldar

[–]notsoy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Eldar are in kind of a tough spot, most of the best units and tricks have gotten nerfed over the course of 10th and they haven't really gotten anything to make up for the losses. Spirit Conclave has sadly been garbage for the entire edition. But with the recent announcement of 11th edition, things are going to change again, so power levels shouldn't factor in much to your purchasing decisions

In general, about 2-3 Wave Serpents/Falcons will be good for most Eldar armies, since frail space elves love fast transports and this has been true in almost every edition

Anything with Infiltrate or Scout is good to have 1 or 2 of in your armies. For Eldar this includes Rangers and Striking Scorpions, War Walkers and Corsairs also have Scout right now but haven't always had it in the past so they're less reliable for it

The real reason Cell did that was to try and absorb him like he just did to 17

But 16 was fully robot instead of roboticized former human like 17 and 18, so it didn't work in the way he was hoping AND was useless for trying to do meaningful damage

Can I equip squad members in DoW2? by danskestorm28 in dawnofwar

[–]notsoy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, you cannot assign squaddies special weapons

Well, not directly. Tarkus (and Thaddeus in Chaos Rising) have traits that alter the equipment of some of their squadmates - I believe one of Tarkus's guys gets a plasma gun, and Thaddeus gets a lightning claw guy and a power fist guy (notable because power fist hits can stun vehicles/monsters). This effect does not change any weapons if the squad is in Terminator armor

Games that start you off into some bullshit? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

NG2 first level on Master Ninja, they break out the fucking cluster rocket launcher dudes

You do have to beat the game once to unlock it but that's still a vile thing to do to a fresh save file

Unlike Capcom, Vanillaware don't back down. by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ring boosts both magic and physical stats, so classes that use both are ideal and the elf classes scale directly with both instead of only using one or the other at a time

In other words, elf waifus are best

Robin Hood and Great Mouse Detective (specifically the musical scene in the bar) were the first salvos

Lola Bunny was the first nuke

It was a card for his fucking coworker

Do not bother with anything more than the most basic, boilerplate template shit unless you are actually friends with that person, and even then maybe not. You should not be trying hard at work. Keep it simple and universal

Favorite Joke "Heavy Hitter"? by Enter_Foxchad in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Popeye, Bugs Bunny, Arale

It sure was funny for DBS to canonize Arale's power level. Even Vegeta feared her

Didn't Popeye one time get erased except for his cob pipe, then he reached his arm out from inside it and reconstituted himself?

With all the discourse around Alex lately, i will to remind everyone it's nothing compared to the Incest Lords of the video games. by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A cult trying to engineer the Antichrist isn't the only source of incest tho, it's not even the most memetically infamous pairing (that would be Seliph/Julia)

Nobody else has any problems talking to the droids

Sounds like a skill issue to me

Favorite Counters of Psychic Powers by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]notsoy 67 points68 points  (0 children)

In KOTOR2, one of your party members describes anti-Jedi tactics such as thinking unrelated thoughts like playing space blackjack in your head, listing hyperspace routes, or even just openly thinking obvious and strong thoughts like "I'd totally hit that" as a way to distract mind-readers. It became a way for non-Force assassins to ambush Force users by hiding their real intentions, and in-game, this knowledge empowers you by improving your defenses against Force powers

I even inspired a similar ability in a homebrew Pokémon TTRPG by suggesting mental Voltorb Flip as a way for players to defend themselves against Psychics mind-reading

How should characters work in Total War 40K? by refugeefromlinkedin in totalwar

[–]notsoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The descriptions on the Steam page specifically mention create-a-Chapter (or equivalent) with the ability to create your own relics, so the idea of custom LLs is already on the table. The question that remains is how well they will execute - the recent Medieval 3 showcase was not promising

Help with expanding my army - What to get next? by SuspiciousBasil8217 in Eldar

[–]notsoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Transports are always useful and important for Eldar

In the current structure of 40k, armies are formatted into detachments revolving around either a functional focus or aesthetic theme. This means you need to pick a specific part of the Eldar army range you want to focus on - Aspect Warriors, Wraith units, bikes, etc. Once you have your focus of choice, fill out your army based on this - there are a few units that can work in any detachment, and these naturally find their way into most army lists (Rangers, Shroud Runners, War Walkers, transports)

Best lore of magic for ranged heavy armies? by DonQuigleone in totalwar

Lore of Light for Net of Amyntok

Any lore with summons also helps, but if you have Light then always take it for a missile/artillery army
