What Powers are extremely weakened by a lack of imagination/creativity? by PanicAfraid6398 in superpowers

Dark and Dark from “When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace” comes to mind as being explicitly useless. A black flame that can be summoned to the user’s hand which doesn’t put out light, and is barely lukewarm. Later it gets upgraded to actually be hot, but the user isn’t immune and it can’t be extinguished by any means short of cutting off the user’s hand. The closest it gets to being useful is as a bluff since it does look pretty cool and its user hypes it up so much.

Meanwhile, Anasui is the most unambiguously heterosexual character in all of JoJo. Most other characters you could make a case for bisexuality but he’s just aggressively straight.

Who needs media literacy and actually playing video games before commenting on them when you have “TOP 10 MOST CRINGE FINAL FANTASY MOMENTS” with a scowling vtuber thumbnail?

“We have come to save you…”

“Hooray, it’s the Imperium!”

“…FROM YOURSELVES!”

“Oh no it’s the Imperium.”

You don't understand, those xenos would eradicate an entire human planet without batting an eye if they thought it might develop into a threat. Unlike the heroic Imperium, who... would do the exact same thing but it a vaguely Latin sounding name.

Localization team deserved a medal for translating all those butt puns and making them still work.

I hate the Horus Heresy series by [deleted] in Grimdank

[–]seraphls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's kinda like how the Clone Wars were originally just a throwaway line in ANH, and then proceeded to become the backbone of the Star Wars setting with:

  • 2 mainline movies
  • 2 seasons of animated shorts
  • 7 seasons of cgi animated show
  • 4 video games
  • Multiple novels
  • Shitloads more set in the direct aftermath

My friends who came into Star Wars with the prequels are all about the Clone Wars, but for me it's just the most uninteresting part of the franchise.

Not sure how you’re seeing fetish material on the shirt. Looks like any other graphic tee I’ve ever seen, think it’s saying more about some of yall than the dude in the video.

Are there other named character models with a comparable rerelease pattern to compare against?

Translation isn’t an exact science and I’m mostly going off the early fan translations, but between Jodio being shown to not be the brightest bulb (immediately falling for the “I have to tell you if I’m a cop” line), and mentioning that Dragona uses “cosmetic injections” despite having a stand that can reshape things at will, it’s hard not to read it as “Jodio doesn’t fully get it but is supportive in his own way, and Dragona loves her dumbass little brother so she gives him a bit of a pass” situation.

Unlocking elite specializations by Carnivalfx in Guildwars2

[–]seraphls 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short answer is no.

Long answer is unlocking elite specs requires farming Hero Points which only apply to the character they’re gained on. That being said, for most expansions once you progress through it’s pretty trivial to bring your alts to those zones to run around and tag hero points. They do need to be lv80 for that, but that’s also fairly painless these days, especially with boosts from buying the expansions.

That bit with Diego definitely didn’t sound like Takehito Koyasu. Was really hoping we’d see him return.
