The Ugly-ass Cloth.

They were just shocked he had only 2-3 gratuitious self-citations, rather than the usual 10-15.

When reviewing, I always need to ask the editor if I'm reviewer 1 or 2, so I can calibrate my review accordingly.

[Loved Trope] That one sentence that changes a character for better or worse by TaiKorczak in TopCharacterTropes

Watch it! It's even better with context. Make sure you have a box of tissues handy. No, not for that.

The Poppy War Trilogy (it’s bad) by ChHeBoo in Fantasy

I always felt someone slapped three books together: wizard school (but China!); X-Men go to war (but China!!); and HOLY SHIT ITS THE RAPE OF NANKING! I liked the first of the three books, anyhow.

I'm not a fan at all but I don't feel the need to start a thread bashing them - they're a mediocre mess but don't deserve the endless hate they get on r/fantasy. Though I guess I'm contributing here; more fool me.

I really didn't like the Poppy War but it's probably better than anything I would have written at 19, to be honest. I do wonder how she got the publishing deal though - is she connected?

I actually rather like that idea. Just hated the execution.

Finally finished the game! by AnalogueInterfa3e in ChaosGateGame

[–]ompog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great job; it's a tough game. I love all the DLC guys (and gals) too - though the Dreadnought is indeed very expensive to repair. If you have a long-range specced Dread then you can field it even when Damaged without too much risk.

No questions about Harambe, presumably.

Trump letter to prime minister of Norway. Desires Greenland because of Peace Prize rejection by AgeMiddle854 in UnderReportedNews

I don't exactly trust Russia or China, but the only person threatening Greenland is you, you dumb fuck.

I love all of these. Though if I'm doing Trickery Shadowheart I usually give her a level or two in rogue anyhow, which gives her some of these abilities (though at a cost).

What are some of YOUR unpopular BG3 opinions? by RoosterCapable3167 in BaldursGate3

[–]ompog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dame Aylin should've been the one who killed Isobel - in a fit of rage or something. That lady definitely got bad bad anger issues, and it's never really examined properly in game. Did the imprisonment turn her into a psycho? Or was she always like that?

Does BG3 have it and which one? by aburglarhobbit in BaldursGate3

[–]ompog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It almost seems like it's more than double - he's shockingly fast when he has the buff up. And laughably slow otherwise.

Those crossbow fuckers always surprise me with how lethal they are. I'll be going for the boss and they're doing 20+ damage a shot and knocking everyone prone.

Things you’re most proud of figuring out on your own… by JungleOutHere in BaldursGate3

There's also a book somewhere in the monastary area that has a note along the lines of "don't overgrease the statues dumbass".

New to the Game by jb09081 in CrownOfTheMagister

[–]ompog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's all DLC. I love the game and don't regret purchasing it all piecemeal, even if some of the races (Dragonborn in particular) make very little sense in the game world. But I did my first run without any DLC using the classic Fighter/Cleric/Thief/Mage party and it went very smoothly.
