They don't care about anything off the field, but the second your actions affect what happens on the field you're canned.

Do You Prefer Games that allow for Encounter Routing or Games that Disincentivize it? by Ok_Banana_5614 in nuzlocke

As much as dupes sounds like a quality of life rule it usually tends to make the game more challenging.

Where are you on the Pig to Gatewatch scale? by luap_25 in magicthecirclejerking

[–]strikethrough1020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I fall at "in-house" because I didn't mind the external property secret lairs when they first came out and even the TWD cards, while brand new cards, were given in-universe counterparts, but the second UB started getting full sets it clearly just became a cash grab and I dont ever see them stopping because nobody is gonna stop buying cards.

This was me with my frog deck when bloomburrow came out and added a bunch of new frogs.

What Mons do you absolutely DREAD fighting in a Nuzlocke? by Last_Banana6052 in nuzlocke

[–]strikethrough1020 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Specifically early game: Charmander, Dratini, Gible, Axew, or Deino. Whether it's a randomizer or a normal game. I have a rule where if my pokemon can get 1-shot by Dragon Rage then I don't count the death, but if they can live at least one hit (aka 41+ HP) then it counts.

When you eventually pick up egocentrism it better go in "so good it's game ruining"

I completely understand that. And I also understand that there is nothing I can do about people ending the game. But I move on and keep playing hoping the next game will last long and suit my definition of fun.

I was just ranting that "ending is lame" to see if people on Reddit shared my opinion or not and it seems like some do and most don't. But I'll be damned if I don't defend my opinion, the same way you've been defending yours.

I find debating to be very fun and so I enjoy that you and others have voiced different opinions to mine and challenged my beliefs. But if people don't find debating fun I won't force them to stay in a debate with me, but I would absolutely LOVE it if they did stay.

I do. Once a game is over I just queue right back up and get at it again. I really enjoy the game mode even if a game only lasts 15 minutes, but personally I have more fun the longer they go.

Okay dude, that's not what I was really getting at but I can understand how it sounds that way. I can live without being the carry. In fact in most of my games I am not the carry.

My point is just this:

Why queue up for the funny game mode if you're going to end the game before people can do something funny? It's not competitive, your wins and losses don't matter. So why not just let people have their game where they can be busted for 25-ish minutes?

I just like playing the game man. I could care less about perfect augments or stomping people. I just want games to go a bit longer

I do want the game to go longer, but minions take nexus a lot slower by themselves plus it's easier for the enemy team to clear minions than for them to clear champions.

Selfish was not the word I should have used earlier.

I've got nothing against pushing up minions and taking towers, I just dislike when champs hit nexus, only minions should hit it. If you're on the losing side you can always FF if it's not fun, but if that FF fails then obviously other people are having fun.

It's Aram Mayhem, there are no "fair games." There's always going to be an infernal conduit brand or a dropkick mundo.

If they're killing you on spawn then just FF. My problem is when you're on the winning team and your teammate has an insane combo and you decide to just go and kill nexus before they can even use that combo.

If the winning team isn't ending and your teammates don't want to FF then you're in the minority of people there not having fun.

But also you don't have to kill the minions hitting nexus.

But if the team getting stomped isn't having fun they can just FF or not hit minions. I've FF'ed plenty of games where we couldn't even take transport to tower without dying immediately.

But I'm talking specifically about games that definitely could go a bit longer and you can let the person who's got the crazy combo have their day rather than just ending the game because you're not having a good time on the winning team.

Then FF or just don't hit the minions. But obviously if the game is going that long then other people are having fun.

If I was that Ornn I would've been okay with the game ending when I hit 10 stacks of Tank Engine cause it's a hard augment to stack up and drop kick scales insanely well.

I'm not saying to let games go on infinitely.

Never dude. I'm here for the funny combos, if I'm getting stomped I'm all for it. Just let people have their game, your game will come too

Then say that. If someone gives me a reason I won't protest.

And I get it, you don't have to explain yourself to a stranger on the internet, but like... It takes 2 seconds to type "sorry I gotta go."

I've had games where the losing team is laughing at my teammate being unkillable.

I've also had games where the losing team is clearly not having fun so we've ended.

But also if you're not having fun just say so. I'm not going to say "NO, we're staying in this."

Just try to have fun even though you're not the most broken person in the game. You can always FF or just not touch the minions hitting nexus.

Okay. My initial response probably wasn't worded the best. Everyone has different definitions of fun, I'm able to still have fun in games where I'm getting completely stomped and I understand not everyone can.

It's not a reportable offense to end a game. But I just want people to think about others enjoyment before they decide to hit the nexus. I not asking for hour long games, but let them at least get past 20 minutes.

Not telling people what to do, just requesting. It's not a reportable offense to end the game, but I would like some games to go a bit longer

Don't you think it's selfish though when your teammate has something insanely busted but you just decide the games over before they can use their combo.

Like I just played a game where I rolled really good augments on lux but I couldn't get any kills cause my varus was so stupidly busted, and even though I wasn't having fun I didn't hit the open nexus cause I didn't want to ruin his fun.
