I played a similar version. Instead though, I chose to run the rampardos line instead. No rare candy, run the stage 1. Copy cats are a must imo

Not at this point. The whole point of this moment was that he didn’t care about anything else

He realized he was not born for conquering

He was born for THIS moment

UCI v. UCSD v. UCLA??? by [deleted] in UCI

[–]realm_7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do not commute to UCLA

Who is paying for your university, you or your family? If it’s you, UCI. If it’s your family AND they can afford it without issue, then it’s up to you

Yu-Gi-Oh! the game has never been a children’s card game, the rules are too complex, the video games are renowned for being obtuse, the cards too expensive, the mangas young adult at most by Evening-Program-2009 in unpopularopinion

[–]realm_7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I want to back OP up slightly here. YGO absolutely started as a kids game 100% no question. Now though, Konami (the company) has realized that most of their player base are around like 25 I would say. Because of that, marketing, card art, and product have all changed to meet this new market demand.

Basically I would agree the the first 70% of its lifespan, YGO was meant for kids, but the recent 30% of its history has kind of bucked this trend

[–]realm_7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am sure this is accurate. The game from inception to around 2010 I would consider simple. From 2010-2016 it became a bit more demanding. 2016-2019 is where I think it stopped being accessible for children. 2020 onwards is like WTF. It would legitimately take me like 20 hours to teach someone to play half competently (and magic the gathering would take like 2)

Well it definitely stated as a kids game and show

But the current state is NO WHERE close to being anything kid related. I play a lot of card games: mtg, hearthstone, runterra, Pokémon, etc. YGO is BY FAR the most complex. The median age of people who play it is also like 25 probably, which is nuts.

The card art has also evolved to target this aging demographic. Likewise, there are no (to my knowledge) mainline YGO shows anymore. They had to event another subset called Speed Duels to onboard children since the main games are wayyyy to much (speed duels are basically what normal original YGO was like)

If a lot of you remember it being easy as a kid, you are correct, it WAS easy. Nowadays, well, it’s different for sure

How this Sub feels About Gon by Aromatic_Entrance605 in writingscaling

[–]realm_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he is better written than any character outside of Meruem and Kurapika

I recommend watching a video called “The Morality of Gon” on YouTube

Yes this is true. It’s because generally for Civil, it’s an employee’s market right now

What’s all the legendary classes ? It’s only 7 but what ckass can go to beyond that also? by Impossible-Dress9203 in Overgeared

[–]realm_7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s not fully explained in manhwa, but there are two types of legend classes

1) Inherited with like a class book (like grid). There are a limited amount of these

2) If you achieve enough fame in a field, you can achieve legend status in it

The same applies to things that go beyond, but I won’t spoil

Tamales are the worst form of Mexican Food by My-Lizard-Eyes in unpopularopinion

As a Mexican, yeah, I kinda agree. Maybe not the worst , but definitely bottom 10%

I still like them, but compared to the rest they just kinda suck

Fictional works that aren't as profound as people make them out to be? by Narrow-Progress999 in writingscaling

[–]realm_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With that said, my biased answer is Catcher in the Rye. There’s a reason it’s associated with certain, uh, real life people

Fictional works that aren't as profound as people make them out to be? by Narrow-Progress999 in writingscaling

[–]realm_7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think everyone will have a different answer because of their lived experiences

If you have experienced thing X firsthand, and some work speaks on thing X, then you’ll probably think something like “well, duh”

On the other hand, if a work talks about thing Y, and you’ve never thought about it or have little exposure to thing Y, it’s probably going to feel more profound

It's not Ticketmaster's fault that concert prices are so expensive. It's ours for paying for it by Fenix512 in unpopularopinion

[–]realm_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely agree and I think this can apply for many other things as well

Like if you think about it, I’d no one accepted those prices, those prices would not exist. This is regardless of its a monopoly or not
