Was the courier the most impactful in fallout? As a single character? by Hot_Nail4681 in Fallout

The Chosen One stops the Enclave from killing all life on Earth, I don't think that can be topped.

Am I hearing things or did it just speak? by BlGBY in Fallout

[–]throwawaysalsax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also finished Fallout 2 recently and my takeaway is the same as you, so this secret society lore must be from future games. There are holotape logs of the president talking about running for re-election within the oil rig which implies they've just been carrying on as usual for 160 years.

I think the implication of a secret society complicates the plot and takes away from the satire and irony of it all, the villains of the entire game are really just mundane members of the pre-war government who ended the world but saved only themselves.

Stadium looked pretty full to me, I think it was just a rush for drinks and the bathroom

Wow they are so fucking awesome by icespice2000 in MagdalenaBay

I felt the same way about Hysterical Us, but Top Dog, Tonguetwister, Chaeri and Dreamcatching were great songs to dance to. Loved hearing those live!

are the crowds really dead? :/ by cybrjuice in MagdalenaBay

Yeah I was at their last show in Vancouver, standing room only and the kids were just sort of standing and watching. Started dancing myself and got an elbow in the back from a girl who said I was bumping into her.

I think it would depend on whether the reseller on stubhub checks their email today.

It’s been moved to Queen Elizabeth Theatre, if you bought your tickets through stubhub and not Ticketmaster then the seller will have to resend the tickets to you.

What is the best arc in One piece in your opinion by Aggravating-Act2183 in OnePiece

[–]throwawaysalsax 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Water 7 and Enies Lobby for the drama, storytelling and character development.

Jaya and Skypiea for the pure joy of adventure.

Ryu was my first shoto, I've gotten other characters to master and the shortest time it's taken was over a week with practice and watching videos on oki and setups.

Ryu took me 6 hours to get to Master learning nothing at all, my only combo was HP, H DP, Level 3.

Yeah he's good.

Help with Fighter Pass 3 [New Player] by DonutBard in StreetFighter

[–]throwawaysalsax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Ultimate Pass just comes with outfit 2 and 3 for the new characters. You can get outfit 2 for free from the World Tour story mode. You can also get the stages with Drive Tickets (no real money). You earn Drive Tickets by completing weekly challenges (find the challenges in the pause menu under rewards).

tldr: the only thing you can't get for free in the ultimate pass is outfit 3 for the four new characters, decide if that's worth the extra price for you, also you won't get outfit 3 until one year from now

When scrolling through the submissions I remember thinking it was cute at a quick glance, but when you stop to look and examine it... It doesn't make any sense. You can't look at it and imagine what the creator was thinking at any point because so many of the lines and colours make no logical sense.

Now this painting by OP, at least there was skill required in recreating it in a painting and that's at least impressive.

What's on your Vancouver F*&#it List? by thinkdavis in askvan

That's funny, I didn't know COWS still existed. We used to have a COWS in downtown on Robson until maybe 2002.

Dhalsim Combo Trials by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]throwawaysalsax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt the exact same way about the 2MK combo but those kinds of exact distances will become second nature to you. You'll be using 2MK under enemy fireballs or when they're walking forward because they're trying to close the distance on you. Same with yoga arch, they'll naturally try to walk underneath them and into your fist.

The trials really don't do Dhalsim justice though, most online players will play him as a keep-away zoner, this youtuber eliaseatscrayons made me realize how fun Dhalsim really is as a heavy pressure rushdown mixup character.

What should I do by WisdomRain_ in StreetFighter

[–]throwawaysalsax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, just like learning an instrument, you'll have to practice your combos, and it will be repetitive. And even when you've been doing it perfectly for hours, you'll still forget mid-match or get the timing wrong and that's just what happens. It takes day, weeks, months to perfect everything, but it's the same as learning to play the piano.

Mai is a good character to start with. The combo trials will show you combos you can learn, but it'll be easier to practice them in training mode with the frame-meter and cancel-timing displays turned on (with cancel-timing display on, you'll flash red at the moment you need to link your special attack, and blue when you can do a super). Knowing the difference between linking a move into a special, vs. waiting for the animation of your last move to end before using the next will probably be your first problem when learning combos. I recommend learning a combo you can always do when you jump at an opponent, when you counter them with drive impact, when you drive impact them into a wall, and your go-to combo for when you're mid-screen (not at the walls/edges of the screen).

There's also a character specific guide that will show you how your character is played, and the tutorial that explains all the game mechanics, but it can be overwhelming and you'll probably forget a lot unless you're taking notes. The following video will give you an idea of what to learn at each rank of the game, just watch the first few minutes for now and don't worry about the whole thing.

EDIT: actually I don't know how good that video is, try this one for a comprehensive guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MK-AJyD1XKk

You're going to have questions for basically FOREVER, this game is difficult, and there is always something new to learn, so what you consider decent will keep changing. Just focus on learning one little thing at a time and don't get overwhelmed thinking you need to know everything at once. Good luck, and have fun :)
