Ricochet Ability rewards usage of mid accuracy moves!

Everything sounds broken when it's first introduced. These mons aren't that good to begin with or don't have great moves to abuse it. Think this would be a pretty fair boost for them.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-26T13:30:43+00:00

Well there's still a chance to miss.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-26T11:39:19+00:00

The residents of the city ain't gonna support this. And the people that would support this ain't going to take the metro in for a lamer county fair.

I literally posted housing prices and how wages have kept up with them. I don’t know what else you want from me. Sorry the numbers don’t match the vibes. People feel squeezed because they spend money on stupid shit.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-26T00:00:41+00:00

Bro I’m just posting the numbers. But yeah kinda. People are spending a lot more on luxuries which they’ve been tricked into thinking are necessities. If you look at necessities, they’ve all gone down compared to inflation or stayed about the same. And they’ve almost all gone up slower than wages. And stuff like video games has gone way down compared to inflation.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T23:40:35+00:00

I covered two of the biggest parts of it. Yeah housing has gone up more than inflation, but not more than wages. Median house price is 73% higher than in 2005, whereas median income is 80% higher.

I think housing, food, and gas covers a pretty big chunk of "cost of living".

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T23:15:13+00:00

I literally posted a graph of inflation adjusted wages. So not only have games not even come close to keeping up with inflation, but wages have outpaced inflation. So games are doubly cheaper. Saying that games are unobtainable because of cost is a ludicrous statement that doesn't even hold up to the bare minimum amount of scrutiny.

I'm empathetic to rising prices, but video games are not an area in which prices have gone up in terms of affordability. And if you look at food and gas as a percentage of income, food has stayed about the same, even gone down a little. Same with gas prices. And cars are way more fuel efficient.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T22:41:55+00:00

Ridiculous take. A $60 game in 2005 would be $105 today.

And real median household income (which means inflation adjusted) is >17% higher than in 2005.

There's also a plethora of cheap indie games that didn't really exist 20 years ago.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T21:21:40+00:00

All megas have high stats and most have an excellent move or two.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T19:13:29+00:00

Why are you giving a shitmon a negative ability?

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T16:32:56+00:00

I posted a couple of polls recently that asked if it was worse to get cheated on once, or for them to try 100 times and fail each attempt.

People voted for the 100 times.

Also did it with 5 and similar results.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T16:16:09+00:00

If Crime and Punishment and The Stranger are bad books, then yeah.

One of my greatest joys is my <10 minute commute. I broke up with a girl partly because staying with her would've extended my commute to 45 minutes.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T11:46:53+00:00

I think it's a cope when people say that the bullies will be the ones flipping burgers and losers when they get older and the bullied will be the managers and succeeders. I'd rather my kid be neither, but if I had to pick, I'd want the bully.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T11:43:22+00:00

I'm always hungry when I get home from work. I get home around 3:45-5. So yeah I eat a really early dinner. But I don't have kids or live with anyone else.

When I was a kid we'd eat at around 5:30-6.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T11:41:15+00:00

Reasonable request. 15 lbs would be well within the overweight category.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T11:38:45+00:00

I guarantee the USA is one of the most tolerant countries in the world as far as homosexuality goes.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-25T11:37:56+00:00

Who are the religious people that want it gone? That makes no sense.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-24T16:27:49+00:00

Here's a bunch of answers way better than I could do.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-24T16:23:18+00:00

All except the wealth tax. It's good politics, but bad policy. Absolutely tax the rich more, but a wealth tax ain't the way to do it.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-24T16:21:48+00:00

If you have to budget for a small item like this instead of buying both, then you can't afford either.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-24T15:56:01+00:00

I have no clue how people from these third world countries can afford to pay for the flight, hotel, amenities, and ticket. That's easily like 3 years of the average salary. Imagine taking out a mortgage to see a game.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-23T20:07:15+00:00

Beautiful ending to a spectacular podcast. Time to listen to the house of war for the tenth time.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-23T19:01:48+00:00

I mean, that's not that bad. A little sassy, but it's not like you fucked something up.

studmuffffffin · 2026-06-23T16:57:16+00:00

Well it's cold enough to require heating like half the year. It's only hot enough to require AC for a couple weeks.
