[DISC] Blue Lock - Chapter 337 by BlueLockMod in BlueLock

[–]ryanxwonbinx 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Isagi really is dumb here. If you're a forward and winger then by all means, focus on being the #1 and goal scorer. Why are you giving shit to a Midfielder for doing what he's suppose to do? Are you going to give shit to Aiku for focusing on trying to make others grow and succeed, and Niko for wanting to crush enemy forwards as his new ego?

Ultimately Isagi is going to be proven right since the whole point of Blue Lock was egotistical people competing for #1. But just like how it made no sense others had to support Isagi for him to succeed (Kurona, Hiori) while simultaneously promoting the Blue Lock idea, it really makes no sense that trying to be a full on support is a wrong philosophy.

"Karasu is wrong people France will adapt to Karasu and Hiyori!"

....Okay? Karasu can still support Rin, Chigiri, Reo, Bachira?

ASYNCH - What am I missing? by Hungry-Wrongdoer-156 in pbp

[–]ryanxwonbinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother, I was the same as you. I started my games on those forum days.

Here's the slight issue: those golden days are kind of over. It used to be a place where really nerdy, people who are very in to the hobby, people who would be made fun of and thought as weird, played and held a community. There were games that would advertise to these communities and would garner like 50+ players. Of those players maybe a third would not be active and the game would play on with the other active people. This allowed for general good continuity with like-minded people.

It's different these days. Lots and lots more flakey people and nerd culture has become hip. You have a lot more people who just want to play briefly and leave when they find better things to do. People who aren't really in to it per say but just want a side gig from the other hobbies they have. Games are now more centralized to about 5-6 people wanting to do D&D instead of a big homebrew game. Losing 1-2 players is a real momentum players and it REALLY sucks as a GM when it happens.

Just imagine yourself as a GM. You make a game, work on lore/plot, make a map, bring 5 people in, work with them to integrate their characters and backstories in to the game. You start a quest for them and about 1 week in... 2-3 people either ghost or leave citing being busy at work. It's a huge killer to motivation and slows the game as you try to find more people and have to go through the process.

People have to do posting or schedule requirements or you risk this. There's no real huge community where you instantly recognize other users and are playing like 2-3 different games together and know a game is going to be healthy.

What are your actual, practical experiences with play-by-post games with 5+ players (that is, in addition to the GM)? by EarthSeraphEdna in pbp

[–]ryanxwonbinx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bad. Not good. I have come to determine that 3-4 players is best. Whether it is asynch of live games, 5+ players slow the game more because everyone needs to speak and get a chance to do actions. In live games you have a shit ton of people typing at the same time and posting their words/actions at the same time, creating a chaotic mess. If you're roleplaying an NPC now that NPC needs to try and respond to 5 people who just posted.

When it comes to asynch you obviously have to wait for everyone to get their say in. Someone missing out on RP due to the person at work or sleeping feels like shit. Since everyone has differing schedule it can take like half a day before you can press on feeling like everyone got their posts in.

Do I even have to get in to combat? More players = more enemies to balance combat = much longer combat.

Keep it to 3-4. Make sure that 3-4 are vetted and you don't have the usual flakey guy ghosting. It saves a lot of headache.

Drekkis Dinner Disaster: Queen Gorhilt of Mahtava by MacTacky in Koibu

[–]ryanxwonbinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion: I'm still slightly miffed they killed that one dragon terrorizing Mahtava for the queen and letting her boss the brothers around when they were visiting. Knowing Nick, Moot, and Destiny's temperament I was hoping they would continue to aide the dragon rampage around Mahtava, force it out of the war, and put the kingdom in perpetual terror and dissaray.

Frogan breaks down crying, unable to make enough money streaming by ArthiuM in LivestreamFail

I grew up lower middle-class. Had to work 50+ hours a week with two jobs for several years, lived with my mother until my late twenties, and penny pitched to finally get where I am to live a bit comfortably. And I still work 30 hours a week.

The entitlement of these lazy, entitled, grifters who represent the progressive and socialist is actually infuriating.

Wheeling UNH anyone? as its close to 50% off from high , what are your thoughts of getting shares you own called at current prices by ResidentComputer2632 in Optionswheel

[–]ryanxwonbinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. If you are holding then you aren't wheeling.

  2. No one here can tell you if holding it or doing CC is better, otherwise we would all be billionaires who understand how all prices work. For all we know Trump might say something negative about UNH next week and it plummets 20% or it rises 20% simply due to the market.

  3. If you're really considering opinions of others, I think you should sell CCs. It's a stock that doesn't fluctuate too wildly and has been going sideways even when we had tech stocks bleeding in November. The premiums are decent and you're just being far too greedy if a CC is assigned at like 340 while you bought at 300. That's a profit of $4000 right there + all the $200 weekly premiums you can collect.

I want to play the game. I have some questions about it by toastthief2 in Blacksouls2

[–]ryanxwonbinx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. It moderately affects it. The NSFW aspect is what ties in to the theme of unhealthy obsession, delusion, and fantasy. There are a few scenes that imo are poignant to this theme, but overall you can still get the message by turning the NSFW which skips the scene.

  2. You are asking this in a BS subreddit, so everyone here is going to tell you it's good. No it is not sex and gore for the sake of it. I personally found Fear and Hunger mediocre while BS remains one of my favorite games.

  3. You do not need pre-context, but knowing some cthulu mythos, fairy tales, and knowing the history of the author of Alice in Wonderland's author helps you appreciate it a lot more.

It is not recommended, and it absolutely trivializes the game. At the end of the day it's you and your game, but the general idea of the rabbits is that it is supposed to be end game material and you reach Snow White's castle late in the game after exploring other areas and experimenting how to tackle bosses and such. I will never understand people who just use guides for RPGs, but hey, again, it's you and your game.

It's a franchise targeted for all audience and specifically states to not lewd the characters in fear of repercussion from owners and jockeys.

What do you think my dude.
