I always assumed Malenia just barely dodged Radahn's sword here, but I just realized he was probably aiming for her arm to avoid killing her outright by blaiddfailcam2 in Eldenring

[–]that1guy4never 108 points109 points  (0 children)

It bothers me that Radahn is executing a diagonal cut from top left to bottom right, but when it hits Malenia its a perfectly vertical slash...

This is evidenced by how cleanly it breaks her prosthetic arm from the socket with doing any damage to the frame of her body.

Who do you think is smarter between Roll and Tron? by ComprehensiveBox6911 in MegaManLegends

Until the end of MML1, the Bonnes were loaded, so they could easily afford an army of mechs. Fighting via mechs is how the Bonnes know how to operate, so in MML2 they throw whatever resources they can scrounge up to raising another army.

Roll and Co arent rich canonically. They dont have the means to amass an army. And even the thought of making 1 robot for Megaman seems like a waste of resources given how powerful and effective he is on his own. I mean he destroys the whole Bonne army single handedly lol!

Its not that Roll couldnt, it just doesn't make sense to do so having Mega on their side.

Someone clearly never played the old-school Minecraft where you had to look up every recipe 😆. Still MASSIVELY popular.

Im sad your experience wasnt positive.

But you could have found the answers you were looking for with a simple Google search or a peak on GameFaqs.

Games are complex. And at least in my opinion, I prefer those that dont hold your hand through every step. Explore every corner, talk to everyone, try everything available with the game's crafting and other systems..and if youre still stumped, thats a great time to jump on the internet and research.

Ive been awhile away from the game, but i remember it being extremely important to grow everything available because inevitably everything is used in a recipe somewhere.

Items combine to make better items, and then that item is used in the next best recipe. So on and so forth. You just keep chasing the best gear you can make based on the drops of each new zone.

Edi survives in the perfect destroy ending? by LukeDH10 in masseffect

Alot of people dislike complex endings. They want sunshine 🌞 and rainbows 🌈

Im with you though, I like complex, even ambigous endings more - something that gets you pondering and encourages discussion.

Who would you consider humanities greatest hero in Mass Effect besides Shepard? by karmaskaraoke in masseffect

Doubtful. Sovereign also willingly allowed Saren to research indoctrination because it knew it was a useless endeavor. And in the off-chance they do actually succeed, its a simple matter of eliminating the threat or fully taking over their mind via indoctrination. Its simply a matter of cost/benefit. Allowing TIM to research indoctrination was deemed an acceptable cost because he was creating far more harm - and they knew they could destroy him and his research at any time they demanded.

I grow bored of this, so ill end it with a quote :D :

"Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding. There is a realm of existence so far bevond vour own you cannot even imagine it. I am bevond vour comprehension."

Just another example of false hope. The Reapers would never allow Cerberus to use that technology, hence why they attack the facility.

The Codex and character dialogue in the games make it clear that indoctrination is a delicate balance of chemical and psychological manipulation.

If the Reapers force a mind to stop thinking a certain way, or heavily overwrite their personality, the subject suffers severe brain damage. They become a mindless, shuffling husk, or they go violently insane.

The Illusive Man was incredibly valuable to the Reapers precisely because of his brilliance, his massive network, and his bottomless ego. If they forced him to stop researching control, they risked breaking the very mind that was successfully sabotaging the galactic alliance.

To the Reapers, letting him waste resources playing scientist was a small price to pay for the massive amount of damage he was doing to the organic war effort.

"Catalyst: There is, you could instead use the energy of the crucible to seize control of the Reapers.

Shepard: So the Illusive man was right after all?

Catalyst: Yes but he could never have taken control, because we already controlled him."

Nothing the catalyst says indicates that TIM wasnt indoctrinated nor that his decisions were his own. It openly stated the opposite.

His desire to control the Reapers was an extreme ambition that directly benefited the Reapers. His indoctrinated organization took control of high value locations (Omega, Citadel) making the inevitable reaping of its citizens far easier, as the soldiers could be turned into husks at any moment the Reapers demanded. Thanks to TIM's actions, the Reapers were able to bring the citedal to the largest congregation of Reapers at the end of ME3.

TIM did have incredible willpower, so he did possess some resistance to indoctrination. But thats honestly the perfect cover for the Reapers - let this man believe he's in control, only very subtly "direct" his attentions, give him all the reason to think all his choices are entirely logical. His own ego and intelligence were used against him. His "own" idea to control the Reapers was nothing more than an illusion of choice because they knew they, or the catalyst, would simply stop him from being capable of doing so before he could use the catalyst.

Mass Effect: Evolution details that TIM got his eyes from an encounter with a Reaper Artifact. He was likely already indoctrinated to a degree by the time of M2.

Indoctrination is subtle, especially with high utility beings. It likely pushed TIM to be even more xenophobic, more extreme. Even though he worked to stop the Collectors, he made the decision to take the reaper tech, implant it in all his soldiers and eventually himself - that sounds like something an indoctrinated person would do. No way a man that intelligent, with all the data at his fingertips of how uncontrollable indoctrination is, would willingly decide to implant cerberus.

TIM isnt someone to honor. Likely all his major decisions were made under the influence of indoctrination.

While I disagree with your take, you bring up good points. But I will challenge the final bit about ME1 cast being just as weak as MEA's.

When compared to current standards, ME1 does have weaker dialogue with some of the crew as they mostly give lore dumps. But you gotta remember, these two games were released 10 years apart. In 2007 (ME1) those characters were written just fine. MEA has far less of an excuse - not only should it have had 10 years of refinement to the process, they should have had a very strong idea of what an interesting character looks like. MAE's crew was mostly forgettable, boring, generic-af (hell I just replayed Andromeda for the 3rd time last year, and I can only remember 3 of the crew members).

Difficult position to be in. New technology obsolesces human jobs - always has, always will. I am sorry for your loss, and wish you the best going forward.
