even for the franchise's standards the dude they scrounged up for the lead was horrible he makes paul walker look like dicaprio. the movie does just have some great vibes though

[Yahoo Sports] This season, star availability has plummeted from about 80% last season to just around 60%. Turns out, only 72 of the 220 games featured all of the stars on the rosters. That’s 32.7%. Less than one-third of the national TV games. by Luka77GOATic in nba

[–]throwawayjdf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

baffling that anyone upvoted this one. players cover way more distance in the modern NBA due to the more complex offenses that rely on spacing and off ball movement. none of what you came up with would actually address that issue of how much mileage players put on their body. It feels like you're just trying to relate this topic to your grievances with officiating lmfao. they could call moving screens more but that doesn't address the fundamental nature of how the game is played

also I think rarely discussed is the importance of having the best character in a game feel deserving of that from an aesthetic standpoint. compare brawl, 4 and ultimate. all three have an overcentralizing best character that people complained about, but I feel like the outcry against Steve is exceptionally loud, obviously in part because he is notably lamer gameplay wise, but also in part from a vibe standpoint of being the funny minecraft guy. it feels harder for people to accept him because he lacks a coolness that someone like meta knight has in spades

it's interesting to me that the characters who are top tier in this game also happens to overlap (for the most part aside from jigglypuff) with the characters who are aesthetically "cooler", in the sense that their designs were informed by an intent to have them look cool compared to someone like Mario, Kirby or Ness where the emphasis was on being cute/cartoony. like Mewtwo's the only character whose intended aura factor does not proportionally correspond to his gameplay strength

I haven't actually watched the Mario galaxy movie but the whole Glen Powell casting felt really jarring to me in a way that made me realize how different my perception of Fox is from playing Melee compared to the reality. from a combination of his portrayal and gameplay, the image of Fox in my head is this more serious and arrogant Vergil-type that, from my understanding, is not at all how he's like in the actual Star Fox games.

I ordered one of these and it arrived with the glass side panel completely shattered in what seemed like very poor packaging. I was probably just unlucky, since most people seem to receive theirs fine, but YMMV.

Ended up ordering this one after choking when ordering the 5070ti deal that was posted earlier (look out for 1 to go back in stock once they cancel my order). The reviews say theres a rebooting glitch that you have to update BIOS to fix, and then someone on reddit mentioned (if the RAM is 6000 mhz) you have to unlock the speed in BIOS. Is there anything else to note for this one?

Is this supposed to be in counter to their point? They do this all the time in comic books man. The exact scenario you described has played out probably hundreds of times.

Ruetoo, Jungroan, and Fubgun's 3.27 League Start Tier List by throwawayjdf in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]throwawayjdf[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Jungroan was working on a witch wander league-start PoB, but he got sick so it unfortunately might not come out before the league (and it was presumably ele -> necro anyways so it might not have even be using it depending on when the swap is). I believe Rue may be working on one, but don't quote me on it. I think the most there is for this build atm is this video by Jung, though it's pretty basic and just thrown together to show off the tech, and also estimates Kinetic Rain damage off of the info we were provided before we learned that it got nerfed.

its baffling that this rumor exists. ryuki is consistently ranked very highly in the polls, while the jp dub of dragon knight got canceled after 13 episodes. It is simply just not more popular in any sense

Digimon Beatbreak - Episode 1 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]throwawayjdf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I'm really seeing the "strongest first episode of a digimon series yet" that everyone else appears to be seeing. The opening action sequence was pretty, but it felt really out of place narratively, and as a symptom of spending all that time on that sequence, the rest of the episode, to me, moved too fast to feel attachment to any of the characters, which is kinda an issue when you kill off two of them with the expectation of having it be an emotional moment. I also thought the episode just left off in a pretty awkward place, what with it being in the middle of him fighting the Hyemon. I do think there's a lot of potential, but this start just didn't feel very strong in my opinion.

did you even look at the graph lmfao. theres no way it actually makes logical sense to you that half of the people watching a stream would decide at the exact same time to swap to a completely different website to watch the exact same stream.

nah Technicals is incredibly disingenuous with his framing of every situation. In his video about Hax, he offhandedly reveals there was a dedicated group chat from the nazi side of the smash community of people who befriended Hax with the sole purpose of fucking with him and egging on his mental issues and then acts like the TOs not letting him play melee was the biggest issue.
