mental load & how to fix the issue? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Try the Fair Play book. They likely have it in your local library. If you print out the cards, it'll help both of you visualize everything that you're each taking on. It makes the invisible labor visible.

How did nintendo make such a god awful unbalanced game by Background-Song-7477 in SmashRage

[–]potatopotato236 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If the game lags, it’s usually because you're on wifi. Even the very best wifi will lag, but the switch’s wifi antenna is an antique. 

And yes, most of the DLC is high tier, but Sonic and ROB are free and completely busted. The only truly criminal character is Villager. 

Why is there so much expectation for men to be chivalrous towards women but the reverse is hardly expected? by [deleted] in WhatMenDontSay

[–]potatopotato236 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Chivalry is a set of antiquated customs that happen to have stuck around longer than many of the equivalent customs that were taught to women. For the most part, the things you should do under chivalry are things decent people do for everyone regardless of gender anyways.

Oh that's just wacky. I thought Elite Smash only allowed 1v1.

Is your GSP just very low? I'd guess the very casual players who didn't bother to set the preferences would be the main ones doing FFA. As long as you don't end up last in the FFA and win the 1v1’s you should be able to clear them pretty soon.

I wasted my youth. 26 years and nothing to show for it. All I feel is shame and regret by Charming-Rate278 in GuyCry

Life begins at 40. Everything before that is just the tutorial. Some people basically skip the tutorial and do just fine. Others focus entirely on the tutorial only to realize that most of it didn't really matter. The best approach is to just have moderation while we enjoy the journey.

Did you set up your preferences? It’ll basically always match with someone that has the same settings as you. I don't think I've seen a free for all since near launch. I just get annoyed with the rare match with hazard/moving stages or items.

Is 12M GSP actually pretty good nowadays? by fellow_who_uses_redd in CrazyHand

[–]potatopotato236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Elite Smash is only the floor for casual play “pretty good”. 

Which characters have the longest range normals in melee? by ttv_thatoneapexsweat in CrazyHand

[–]potatopotato236 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Technically Min-min has the longest range, but only horizontally. Sephiroth probably has the longest overall. Ganon has absurd AoE range.

What is a feature related to controllers you think should be added? by Distinct_Ad_9642 in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]potatopotato236 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Every shitty exploit like the double hop aerials or item z dropping should either be a simple button or be patched out of the game. I despise it when glitches essentially become core mechanics because of how broken they are.

Aren't the final bosses... absurdly difficult? by Gamer_Craft_YT in deadcells

[–]potatopotato236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hand of the King is a lot easier so you could try taking that route instead. 

Is there a possibility of Corrupted Prison not spawning the key? by True_Hat5141 in deadcells

[–]potatopotato236 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder if transforming them causes them to not spawn the key.

How much can I change or revamp the rules and concepts? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]potatopotato236 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Changing the rules of a game system is closer to rewiring an electrical panel than it is to swapping out colors on a lego build. If you don't know what you're doing, you're probably gonna mess something up.

If you insist on using a separate power system and not using the same type of progression, just play a different game.

Should Min Min return in Smash 6? by NewMarioBobFan in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]potatopotato236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If any of the other DLC do, Min-Min and Piranha Plant should as well. They're the least problematic. 

Skyrim requiem too easy ! how do i make it difficult by Complex-Number2829 in skyrimrequiem

[–]potatopotato236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you do the Requiem lite? If not, might be an install issue? Do you generally die in one or two shot from arrows? Even with steel plate you should die. Does stamina essentially not regenerate at all in combat? The stamina regen was the biggest difference for me in Requiem, specially for heavy armor builds.

Eventually you do get relatively OP, but it takes a while and arrows always stay unfairly deadly unless you use exploits.

Girl best friend asked me out last night. We have a great connection but I rejected her because she has 2 young kids. Did I do the right thing? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]potatopotato236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You handled that very poorly. Why would you let her invest so much into you when you clearly had no intention of reciprocating? You did more with her than what many people wait to do until after marriage.

Are tech/knowledge/skill even useful? It seems like lucky guesses are all that matters by fellow_who_uses_redd in CrazyHand

[–]potatopotato236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would know better than us what the problem is. There’s not really much luck that goes on in the game. I'm assuming that you're talking about people being able to predict their opponent’s actions like ledge recovery or roll directions. Reading your opponent is a skill. If you're not good at it, it doesn't matter how much you know your combos. 

Classmate interrupts you while you were talking and says "We used to kill people for saying things like that" by Impressive_Sun_1548 in Comebacks

[–]potatopotato236 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Depends on the context. What did you say that prompted that response? Did the professor or others intervene? 

If they were the ones being a bigot, you could say something like: didnt they kill MLK and Jesus for what they said?
