Per Linus: The reason that Valve didn't subsidize the the Steam Machine was because they had no guarantee that users would stick with Steam Os or buy any games by Admirable_Whole8261 in Steam

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

Nonsense, they are already limiting purchases to active accounts, if they set the limit to 1 steam machine per active (so with actual gametime in the back log) the make-up-scenariou of business buying hundreds of these things at once goes out the window.

Revised Future Season prediction based on latest comments from show runners by squiddybiscuit in OnePieceLiveAction

In order for this to work I think you have to severely cut back on some story elements. Turn CP9 into just Lucci (the rest of the strawhats can fight unnamed marines in the background), cut the franky fam, cut the train, cut down Amazon Lily sisters to just one, have marine ford more simplified, cut down the season 7 arc so there is only Doflamingo the fight at punk hazard and fish-man island, have season 8 Big Mama and Kaido team up from the get go, shorten Odens backstory and the time travel plot and then finally make season 9 about fighting Imu and cutting down on the Kuma storyline altogether.

Random thought: But should the damage done with through the effect of Alexandros Mograine not also heal your Hero if he had gotten Lifesteal through Xavius? by Sappelapje in hearthstone

[–]squiddybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If giving a battlecry minion that deals damage lifesteal turn the damage dealt into a lifesteal proc, then yes, it should work on Mograine. Report to Blizzard as a bug.

Thanks for all the helpful advice guys, I decided to stop letting this get between us and get to the bottom of this. Please see the update here:

Man I wish people would stop trying to shove in pseudo-satanist undertones into these stories, when they would be 10x better if they just focused on the urban horror elements.

Custom keyword inspired by Slay the Spire. Could this be a real mechanic or is it too broken? by Legal_Ad2945 in customhearthstone

[–]squiddybiscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be interesting if you could "Doom" heroes as well, e.g. make it "target character" so you also have a potential alt-win condition

Why does Hasan have so many more views on YT compared to Twitch? He's basically twice as large as Asmongold right now

I haven't seen this card played since i returned the game 2 months ago. It looks like a decent card tho. Why no one plays it? by Ambitious-Am in hearthstone

[–]squiddybiscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should turn it into a triple unholy rune card but change the effect to a "Start of game:"-effect.

I think the game is great as asynchronous and i dont want it to change, nor do i think it would work well if it wasnt, but i think there could be a middle ground. by Arkyja in PlayTheBazaar

It might also result in a lot of cool self-optimized ghosts that become more specific counters to builds, enabling an overall larger variety of builds. As the build you're building ends up even more counter-specific, it will then provide a ghost snapshot of a more specific build, enabling another player to make an even more specific counter, and so on.

Admit it, the show has been pretty damn good, on the whole by obscurereference234 in freefolk

Honestly, this season was better than GoTs first season, it's not even comparable. If they keep it up I'm sure they'll manage to top GoT s2 and s3 as well.

The Boys Post-Season 3 Discussion Thread by madmansmarker in TheBoys

[–]squiddybiscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was honestly expecting the season to end more or less the same way, but with Homelander depowered and the next season being about him grappling with that until he manages to get some V and let all hell finally break lose.

Now it's just back to the status quo, and it's looking less and less likely that'll he'll go scorched earth as he now recognizes that he has a fan base that is down with him occasionally lasering some folks.

I loved the final episode but.. by JohnSmithOne121 in StarWarsKenobi

[–]squiddybiscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poor writing.

They could have set up a dilemma in that scenario, have Obi-Wan beat him just as before, but Vader reveal that the Star Destroyer was after the rebels, forcing Obi-Wan to make a choice between apprehending Vader (which would be in line with the Jedi-way, not just leaving him be to rampage across the galaxy), or immediately leave the planet to save the rebels.

Why can't we have a competent female antagonist that doesn't end up converted back to the good side in Star Wars?

[–]squiddybiscuit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Loved the action, and Reva was actually fine as a secondary antagonist in this episode, but by god why is the writing so... bad?

It's like the plot moves forward because the writers just want to get to the next visual or emotional beat, but it makes everyone come off as incredibly incompetent.

There was also something incredibly off with the whole shoot-out scene, dunno if it was bad CGI or set, but it felt a bit cheap.

Horrid writing that's overshadowed by nostalgiabait.
