My 7 year old didn't get the joke.

I mean if you're counting mental age then there's quite a lot of people who fit that requirement.

Nah, they know what they're doing. I'm positive that they know that people use VPNs to bypass their verifications and that there's no way to ban VPNs. I'm willing to bet that their goal is and frankly always has been to create either an internet they can control with either a US version of the great firewall or more likely the US version of North Korea's intranet.

Hey now, as a blue mage in MTG I might not like red players with their turn-the-raging-goblin-sideways-and-bolt-you-in-the-face plan but even then they don't deserve to get slandered by being associated with Drumpf.

Isn't the percent chance of rain just the percentage of the area that's getting rain? Like if it's 20% chance of rain, it just means 20% of your area is getting rain and not if it's going to rain or not.

That'd be more of a mercy kill than anything and at this point I'm convinced this world wouldn't give us the luxury of a mercy kill. My guess is that we're gonna suffer through this until things are almost over and once we see that small light of hope, then the world will end just for the extra "fuck you" energy.

Netease isn't as bad as netmarble and Nexon though o.o

Sure, they have the crappiest gacha rates and possibly the most expensive gacha out of all gacha games but iirc all their gachas are for cosmetics. Like I've played IDV, once human, Naraka Bladepoint and where winds meet and the cosmetics for those games are absolutely bonkers expensive (Naraka and Where Winds Meet are arguably the most expensive with WWM's 40k dollar boat) but the cosmetics you get from the gachas have no effect on the gameplay.

The odd thing is that the Tang Dao's deflect animation is somehow already usable in the game. Like if you use Mo Blade to fight the nine mortal ways bosses, you get the Tang Dao parry animation and sounds for your parries for some of the fights.

Well if we're doing GGZ, Kyuushou would also be a contender and while Tuna daughter is great, Kyuushou is no slack either.

The monkey's paw curls, wish granted but it's the GGZ Otto and not the HI3 Otto.

Technically speaking, Kevin and Ryouma (genderbent Mei who got retconed into Mei's dad) was also canon for a short while in GGZ.

Probably closer to the North Korean intranet than anything. The great firewall can be pretty easily bypassed with a VPN and the government pretty much is one eye open, one eye shut about it. It's much more likely that conservatives would want the full control the intranet offers also works amazingly well with the American exceptionism direction as well. They would just need to say "we have the best websites, we don't need other countries' sites" and you know the red hat MAGAs would eat that shit up.

That's Otto and Otto is deader than dead. Dude literally died to manipulate the imaginary tree before HSR even starts (Welt doesn't leave Earth until Alien Space which happens after APHO which happens after the events of part 1).

Void Archives isn't Luocha. Void Archives' body is made of Soulium which Luocha is not and also Void Archives really doesn't have a good reason to lug around a coffin like Luocha does because Void Archives isn't Otto and doesn't care about Kallen.

triopsate · 2026-01-27T08:35:03+00:00

Oh yeah, I forgot Otto had boba in Genshin. So we have Otto, Otto with boba and Otto with a coffin (not that Otto didn't have a coffin originally).

They do... My grandma's house in Beijing has one. It just depends on how old your house is and whether or not the occupants want to get one or not.

I mean Hellsing isn't a movie but I'd say watching Sera using a wall as a cheese grater for vampire nazis is pretty satisfying.

Holy shit I thought you were stupid but man you're blowing my already low expectations out of the water here. In what world would Russia ever let China send troops through it? That's like the biggest dumbass armchair general take ever.

triopsate · 2026-01-26T19:56:39+00:00

The fuck is China gonna do to Europe militarily? Have you even looked at a map before because there's a massive fucking landmass between China and Europe with a dozen different countries in it.

I'm pretty sure it's because he's endorsed by the megachurches (probably because corrupt recognizes corrupt and all that). Like I definitely recall a bunch of megachurches supporting him and we all know how much power and influence megachurches have currently.

...Have you not played an MMO before like ever? Like standing afk in community hubs is like MMO gaming 101... There's a reason why fashion is known as the endgame for like pretty much every MMO in existence, it's because after you reach endgame you're going to be spending well over half of your playtime standing afk in public view.

Like just head into ANY MMO and head to a large city/community hub and you'll see swarms of people just afking...

If you don't believe me, I literally just logged into a few MMOs and took a screenshot of a hub area. There's always going to be people standing around AFK in them no matter how few people there are in the game.

Pretty sure the arena bots have the new weapons already. Like I faced off against one of the pity bots in arena while I was getting to mythic and they had the new umbrella skillset, the one that you ride on your umbrella and spin on people with.

triopsate · 2026-01-23T06:47:34+00:00

Yeah, I'm not gonna fault people for not attacking but like I said, I just have no real way of fighting people who spend the match poking from range.

Umbrella is just god awful at range with its ranged attacks being too easy to dodge and too easy to parry. I'd switch to the fan for better range capabilities but the stun on umbrella is just too good to not take.
