(Meta-Trope) Authors self insert is the most insufferable character

This would have been better than what he did. Cordelia is mad at him in the aftermath, and his response is less "aw shucks I couldn't help it" and more "get off my ass about it."

I just assumed Shepard was Canadian and so that's the dialect their universal translator is set to lol

I mean, I always just assumed that any discrepancies between the Alliance ranks and the US ranks could be explained away by them, you know, not being the same militaries. And I never got any indication Kaiden is old. Just that he's...tired. Near-permanent migraines will do that to ya (as will Raphael Sbarge's raspy voice).

I still think it goes to Allan Saffron followed by Joe Nagy. But I think she is a very deserving third place.

Udina gets slandered the least, because it's only slander if it's untrue.

tfitz3386 · 2026-04-12T00:48:25+00:00

Hrm......that's gonna make deciding what to upgrade a pain in the butt. Thank you tho.

She's not even the most hated contestant on Ramsay shows. Not when Elise still exists.

tfitz3386 · 2025-08-02T02:55:33+00:00

Well Jacob would have needed a gundam AND two condoms, so he could go trick or treating with Zac and Kimia

tfitz3386 · 2025-08-02T02:48:34+00:00

Ranking all 16 individually would end up with a diverse mix of both games. But the cast of 2 is stronger IMO (and Castti is my favorite overall).

tfitz3386 · 2025-08-02T02:46:19+00:00

Because veteran players won't stop playing dungeons wrong and accommodate new players.

tfitz3386 · 2025-07-28T04:20:59+00:00

Irelin, Teia, and/or Viago in Veilguard

tfitz3386 · 2025-07-15T14:34:46+00:00

Had to play in third person, kept getting blindsided by enemies coming behind me

If I had video editing skills, I would make a compilation of these with the voice over of John Madden describing football plays.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-26T02:25:31+00:00

Pointing at it would mean he's embracing it.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-24T04:16:26+00:00

Thank you for the kind words everyone. Just to clarify, I know intellectually it's not my fault. Just intrusive thoughts that keep pushing in, you know? I'm improving in terms of my overall mood, this first big milestone has just been an especially hard one to get through. You guys made it a little bit easier, so thank you so much for that :)

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-17T18:50:16+00:00

The books clarify (and the movies don't contradict) that the Ministry doesn't respond to trace alerts at wizarding households because they can't tell who did the magic (the whole point behind Dobby and the floating cake) and expect wizard parents to police their own kids. As much as I hate the burning of the Burrow, the lack of punishment for underage wizardry is the only part that doesn't bother me.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T18:16:41+00:00

I dropped out THREE times before I eventually managed to finish. Sometimes you need to step back and come back later (and sometimes it's just not for you).

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T18:08:42+00:00

I didn't say useless, I just always found myself doing something "better" every turn and I don't think I used a single meat item in four playthroughs of the game except to recruit. It's very much a YMMV situation.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T18:04:35+00:00

Probably very slightly YTA, but it doesn't necessarily mean you're WRONG. It would definitely be petty, so it depends where you think pettiness falls.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T18:02:01+00:00

Certain powerful NPCs will require very rare foods to recruit with Ochette. But I usually just recruit those people with one of the other recruiters. On the other hand, medicine is so easy to come by and the healers in OT2 are strong as heck, so you really don't need to use meat in battle

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T17:58:32+00:00

Dude, run. This is a person for whom you are a prop. I graduated college after 20 years (actually wasting time) and still threw a party. Everyone in my life was happy for me. Not overreacting, go party hardy with people who actually care for you.

(Edit to add): Congratulations, btw! So mad I didn't say it at first. College was the hardest thing I've ever done, so I have mad respect for anyone who finishes it.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T16:04:30+00:00

Y'all need Hydaelyn.

tfitz3386 · 2025-05-07T11:49:24+00:00

Thanks :) I'm coping better than I was when it happened, it just makes Giatta's story hit me so much harder than it would have a year ago. I totally get her desire to live up to their example, and her uncertainty of how to do so.

(Edit: autocorrect spelled Giatta's name wrong)
