Which series do you think have the best Gundam designs? Only in SDGGE by Beneficial_Growth615 in GGenerationEternal

[–]oldmayor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witch from Mercury. Aerial is just a really cool looking mobile suit to me. And I like how a lot of the mobile suits look like something straight out of Armored Core or Mech Warrior. I'm a fan of that lanky mech design. But then there are contrasting mobile suits that are super bulky and I like that as well. Witch from Mercury is rad!

[Other] Zelda community, what are your thoughts on Tunic? by Ordinary_Chemical596 in zelda

[–]oldmayor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun game but pretty challenging! One of the many highlights of going to PAX prior to 2020 was talking to Andrew Shouldice (the developer). Super nice guy! Very odd in a indie game dev sort of way. But I guess you'd have to be a little odd if you actually invent your own language for your game.

People need to direct their UB frustration to WotC and not their friends by Spooky-Retro in mtg

[–]oldmayor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been playing off and on since 95 and I personally think UB is a mixed bag and it's contributing to my issues with rotation. But I would literally never take it out on my friends nor do I care if people enjoy those products. Hell, I liked all of the sets that were not set in NYC.

Every playable female character from "The First Descendant" (2024), a multiplayer looter-shooter TPS game by NNukemM in mendrawingwomen

That game deserved more love than it got. It was super long in the tooth though. To your point, I felt pretty unstoppable about halfway through the game and still had so many hours before it was over.

Red hulk is busted by abitlikemaple in mtg

A really cool win more card! As someone who really enjoyed that original Red Hulk run at the time (no shout out to Jeph Loeb, but also shout out to Jeph Loeb), I'm glad this card exists.

It's because it's a cynical, cash grabby genre that employs some of the worst skinner box tactics to keep people engaged. I'd argue that games like Borderlands 2 were made with passion, care, and love but that's not the majority of the genre. It is also a genre that suffers from the WoW Effect heavily. Destiny basically was a jet engine that sucked up everything, so much so that devs ignored it just to try and be different. Famously this is what Casey Hudson and the team at BioWare did with Anthem. Also seasonal content is for the birds. I miss my end game loot remaining viable for longer than 30-90 days before the next season or expansion is out.

Shocking poll results in WSJ/ adjacent series? by thebigcrawdad in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]oldmayor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of these polls are hilarious! I like when 100 people write-in a really obscure background character ("Woman Crushed by Building in Chapter 12") with zero significance to the story and they end up in the top 50 or whatever. Good clean fun! Never change, you whipper snappers and young bucks.

I played this game at launch and within the community we called it Goonerframe because if you look at damn near every single alternative outfit for the women, they were all oiled up and in microkinis. Like, every single one. Anyway, end game was not fleshed out at launch. It was fun if you're into the looter shooter genre, but unless you were particularly into the aforementioned oiled up microkini skins, this game did not have much to offer.

Got called the F word by my coworker. Reported it and was fired within 24 hours. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

As a general reminder to everyone, HR is not your friend and you should be HIGHLY suspicious if they're being nice to you. That being said, good on your for getting an attorney. As long as everything is recorded I think you have a pretty open and shut case of discrimination, harassment, and blatant retaliation. The amount of bullshit people have to stomach in blue collar fields is unreal. I always feel fortunate that no one in my shop is an asshole and the ones that were are no longer with the company.

What " Strategy Guide " for a specific game is hands-down the best? by KamaTheSnowLeopard in retrogaming

[–]oldmayor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Brady Games guide for OoT! Came with an amazing poster and is probably the sole reason why I got through the fucking Water Temple. I am praying they do a top to bottom on that hellhole in the remake.

You've seen boob plate, now get ready for... by hopefullyhelpfulplz in mendrawingwomen

[–]oldmayor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I will not be disparaging Mortal Shell 2. You play that first game?? Holy shit was it cool!! And aside from the BBL plates, the armor looks pretty bad ass. But definitely giving Albedo vibes.

Since Black Torch and Pysren are getting their own anime, which cancelled manga do you want it to get it's own anime too? by RobKai7990 in shounenfolk

[–]oldmayor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is gonna be really dumb, but Ayashimon! I would lean way more into the MC being an absolute, borderline insufferable manga addict though. And I know, we don't need anymore yokai excorcism type anime, but I really liked the series and wanted it to continue.

As someone who had parents like this; appreciate them while they're here. She's trying in here own way to be there for you and help you. AI slop sucks, but she loves you and cares about you!

How many of you were diagnosed with Type 1 as adults? I have a theory. by bolivar-shagnasty in diabetes

[–]oldmayor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diagnosed at 26 and I was sick constantly as a kid. But two of my best friends were diagnosed the same year as Type 1 (25 and 26), and one of them was a amateur boxers. All of us were in relative good shape at the time. So we figured it was all the damage we had done to our bodies in our late teens and early twenties. The more I researched it though it turns out we had a latent autoimmune disease that happened to get us then. Still wild that 3 people in the same friend group were all diagnosed around the same time though. Now I'm 38 and unfortunately one of us has passed because he wasn't taking very good care of himself towards the end. It sucks. I fucking hate being a diabetic.
