RE: The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Thread
Sister has the vaccine now (she works with the elderly), but she's still freaked out at the possibility of her being able to infect me even if she's immune. I know that hasn't been proven true or false, but the caution is still there.
Sucks, cause she had to go on a flight today with an asshat who would take off his mask when flight attendants weren't looking and told her that the pandemic is a hoax. You know… Saying it to a woman wearing two masks, a face shield, false glasses, and vaccination. I wish people weren't so damn irresponsible.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
I don't know what you folks actually think about this. But from here, "cancel culture" is seen as a serious thing. Wether it's by the left, the right or the centrists.
It's really freaking hard to take outcries of cancel culture seriously when 90% of it has been assholes crying "CANCEL CULTURE IS RUINING EVERYTHING" when they're facing consequences for something genuinely shitty that they did.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
I feel like whatever American legends get placed in the Oval Office décor, it will be a problem. Granted, those people praising him for his choice have their head shoved up their ass, but there is no good answer. Safest political answer is Lincoln, but even that can be met with scrutiny of 'Oh, but Lincoln didn't have moral intentions for ending slavery' or 'But Lincoln is a Republican, ha Biden admits Republicans are better'. You put décor of non-politician or non-Americans, and you get told your 'Un-American' or 'inconsiderate of history'.
As much as people want to argue it, EVERYTHING YOU DO has a political shift. Biden simply chose some of the safer options in spite of how awful those two men were. Can we change that? Perhaps, someday. I look forward to the President who decorates their Oval Office with portraits of Dolly Parton and Eartha Kitt.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
Tweets being posted showing screenshots from the depths of Hell of Trumpers going fucking crazy. Some harsh statements ahead, mind you.
I'm seeing conspiracy theories along the lines of "Trump's concession and terrorist statement was a deepfake" "They've offed Trump and we're going to find out soon enough" "We have dirt on all of Congress that will put us on the winning side". All absurd shit that they honestly believe in an attempt to deny that things are going HORRIBLY for them.
Meanwhile, riots are getting worse as Trump morons are overstepping their boundaries and getting rightfully counter acted. Hell, this story is a trip:
BLOOD WARNING (woman gets punched in the face, causing a bloody nose)
-Officer gets her masked yanked by rude rioter.
-Officer proceeds to punch her in the face in response.
-Crowd shoves officer back to the wall of officers, until a friend of punched woman attempt to punch said officer herself.
-Officers immediately reaction, SHOWERING rioters with mace
-Camera pans back to punched woman who is hugging her husband in fear while drenched facially in her own blood
-AND TO ADD THE CHERRY ON TOP: The daughter of this couple has outed BOTH of them AND the friend (the girl's aunt) in retaliation toward her parent's cruel treatment of her for being a lesbian and for trying to defend BLM, which they claimed, "…is too violent to be worth any sympathy."You love to see it.

We really need to get those Dragonballs already.
I believe that's Nancy Pelosi. And the guy is John Lewis. I don't really get this meme either though.
Apparently, someone made a Tweet saying "We worship politians so damn much, watch somebody do something stupid like draw RBG, Lewis, Kobe, and MF Doom looking down on Stacey Abrams with pride", and as a joke, someone drew it and added Nancy and Piccolo to add to the joke. It's nothing genuine.

RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
Y'all ready for the funniest fucking thing?
We now apparently know what was up with the Kanye Presidential run (aside from the obvious attempt to give the reluctant Biden voters an attractive protest candidate)
He apparently understood he was on the ballot in too few states to win but expected to get a few million votes at least which he then intended to parlay into a position on Trump's 2nd Term Cabinet because he also assumed Trump would win of course. Then he was going to use that as his "in" in politics to do a serious presidential run in 2024 where he actually did everything on-time instead of last minute and (I assume) run as the Republican.
Now, because America didn't give him his million or more votes he wanted and because we dared to vote in Biden, he's considering leaving the country because "We don't deserve him".
Oh my god I can't stop laughing.

@The:
What is tiktok? I feel like I've heard of that before.
If you're legitimately asking this (I can't read sarcasm anymore), it's basically the successor to Vine, where it is a website where users can post short and brief videos for entertainment. They're extremely popular and range from mundane stupidity to extremely petty self absorption to legitimately funny or good content. Mileage may vary.

I will say: A lot of guys being forced to grow out their hair is funny, because they'll just post selfies and be like "Look how ridiculously long my hair is getting". And they don't realize how hot some of them actually look BECAUSE of it.
-
RE: American Politics: A Brand New Day
I'm someone who has always liked growing out their hair. It's currently not as long as I've had it before in the past, so I'm pretty comfortable with it so far. I have been trimming my beard fairly often, and that grows way faster and wilder than my hair.

RE: The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Thread
Did you mean gloves? Sorry, but it just made me think there might be people who are wearing glasses for the sole reason of stopping their fingers from touching their eyes or something instead of for vision improvement.
She has been wearing gloves, but glasses too. Glasses have been good for protecting against particles. She has no vision problems, so they're just basic fashion glasses that you can get real cheap. Granted: They're no where near as important as a mask, but they do help.

RE: The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Thread
I want to scream. As of right now, I'm rather fortunate so far. I've been working as a substitute teacher before this took place, and I refuse to go back into a school at this point. I've been trying to see if I can sign up as a remote learning teacher, but so far, I don't think any schools are doing remote learning in my district. Majority of my family is staying home. My sisters with kids are planning to either home school and find a school with remote learning. Most of us who are working are able to work at home, and we're taking care of each other as best as we can. My biggest issue is the sister I'm living with. Her job wants to act like nothing is wrong and that life has to go on, so she has to travel to multiple places by car or plane. My sister has been smart and has been wearing glasses, a mask, and a face shield at airports, and her job IS in support of wearing protective masking and closing down areas that have cases. But I just want her to stay home. I want to tell her to quit but she got this job about a month and half ago out of sheer fame of her talent. She quit her last job in March, so to tell her to quit again… It's not like I'm providing much money at the moment to preach about this.
It's killing me because it is amazing how much majority of this country doesn't seem to care. They don't give a shit. Every single one of us can die as long as their simple lives don't change even in the slightest. I realize this isn't a novel realization, but living in such a vibrant example of this realization makes me want to hurl. I don't know what to do. I have zero faith anything will get better in this country, and even if I wanted to leave... No one can. So many people are going to die... And for what? Power and money that ultimately mean nothing in the end.

RE: General Square Enix Thread II
I know I'm a bit late in asking this, but what is your guys opinions on the new Final Fantasy 7 Remake? Is it worth buying? I was thinking of getting it, but not exactly sure if I should or not
What do you think of the battle systems, the plot (old and new), the characters etc. I'd really love to know
So, here's what I can say: Gameplay is execellent. It's not often you get to play an action RPG and find that each and every character you can play as is actually really fun and there is a benefit to alternating between them. I PREFER TURN BASED CLASSIC COMBAT, but that's just a preference. For what this game is, the combat is excellent. No worries there. Same with music and sound and visuals. Everything is artistically beautiful.
The story is where things get fuzzy, but that doesn't mean the story is bad. The story is very good! The main characters are more fleshed out and interesting. There's more dialogue to make the characters more likable and entertaining. Everyone is how they should be, but better than ever! Many original scenes and moments from the past games are bigger and more fantastic than they could be, and in that vain, it's a fantastic remake/revivison/whatever. And of course, the game isn't the fully game of FF7, which is fine but needs to be noted.
The problem is, the story has a few issues:
- The writers don't exactly believe in subtly, which in some cases is fine (namely anything dealing with political or corporate greed) but in others are kind of frustrating. The mystery of a certain character who never shows his face in the entirety of the Midgar segment is undone because they want to flaunt this character in your face every forty minutes. They add a plot point to discuss some of the plot changes they want to make. They kind of over-allude to things that will happen in the future plot, and it sometimes feels they want to look into the camera and point things out.
- They allude and reference major plot points that, unless you have already played the original game, you have no idea what it means, and it just muddies what is possibly one of Final Fantasy's most simple plotlines. They start to introduce entire ideas that are meaningless to new players who never played the original game, and I'm not sure how they would cope with that.
Honestly, it's a great game. If you're interested, get it. If you've played the original FF7, DEFINITELY get it. If you haven't played the original, consider waiting until it goes on sale, which it does every few months. I don't feel like, even after it gets fully released, the remake overrides the original game. There is still a benefit to playing the original game and the remake. I find that kind of frustrating because I feel like a remake should trivialize the need to play the original, but as some have pointed out, it's a revision and not a remake.

RE: The DEATH BATTLE thread
! I'm also pretty sure I read Machamp can destroy mountains in one of it's Pokedex entries….. there's no way Goro can face that
[hide]Yeah, I assumed as much. I know more about MK than I do Pokemon, and I vaguely knew Machamp is a force of nature and Goro is entirely stoppable despite the hype.[/hide]
-
RE: The DEATH BATTLE thread
So next Death Battle…
[hide]Goro is 1000% screwed, no? I mean, I know plenty about Goro, but I don't know what his answer is for Machamp's 1000 punch per second speed and strength that can punch even some of the biggest Pokemon into the horizon. Goro is strong, but his win/loss ratio leans too much in the loss department. And even if we wanted to say that that's because MK folk are overpowered, Goro hasn't really shown many feats of strength beyond Fatalities.
Considering Goro's fights in the series:
-Defeated by Liu Kang many, many times
-Assassinated by Shang Tsung and Quan Chi
-Defeated in MK9 by Liu and Cyber Sub-Zero
-Got his arms sliced off by Kotal Kahn, who already has a hard time with enemies like Shao Kahn and even JadeAnd then his stronger 'equal' is Kintaro who has:
-Been defeated by Kung Lao, Stryker, and Cyber Sub-Zero (who Goro and Kintaro double teamed)
-Got his head ripped off his shoulders by three humans under possession by bloodlustSo… I can't help but imagine Goro being anything but a pushover in this fight.[/hide]

RE: Castlevania Mini-Series
[hide]I severely doubt Devil May Cry will be involved since both series come from different companies that have never associated with each other. A lot of people have said Metal Gear Solid, but again, those two haven't crossed paths much even though they are both Konami.
I don't believe what Saint Germain was seeing was different worlds, but instead, the past and future. See, Saint Germain comes from Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. He is a time traveler who is well aware of the future and comes to the past to prevent… something big that may happen in the show since its the basis of the entire series (the Curse of Darkness). He fights Hector, who he feels doesn't have the strength to handle the upcoming threat, but Hector proves him wrong. Saint Germain allows Hector to handle the situation and returns to the void of time after Hector saves the day.
So all of those visions, I think, were him getting different glimpses in time throughout history.[/hide]

RE: General Fire Emblem Thread - At Least Mario Got a Funeral
…I am not changing that edit. I love it now. It is permanent.

RE: General Fire Emblem Thread - At Least Mario Got a Funeral
To kind of sum up how the DLC works:
-You can play it at any time from the main menu and has seperate save files.
-It is 7 chapters long. Chapters are just cutscenes, a free roam area where you can shop, and then a battle. No classes.
-You control Byleth, Edelgard, Dimitri, Claude, Lindhardt, Ashe, and Hilda. By the second chapter, the four new characters are added. You can change the classes of the initial seven characters to set collection of classes each character has. Take note, there is no class mastery or weapon mastery, so what skills and abilities said character remain constant.
-There are no major choices, so you can play through the DLC without stress. Complete it and enjoy the story.
-After certain chapters, each character will be recruitable in the main game. By chapter 2/3(?), you will get access to the abyss of the church, where you can meet/recruit the other four characters at any time and use the various shops and bonus stuff that is within the abyss.
-A special item will allow characters in the main game to obtain the new classes within the game. The special item can be obtained from both the new characters or the new abyss shops.-The new classes are:
–-War Monk/Cleric - Axe/Fish focus class that allows magic usage with Faith focus.
---Trickster - Sword focus class that default thief abilities and allow magic usage with Faith focus.
---Dark Flier - Female exclusive. Reason focus class that allows full magic usage, Black Tomefaire, and pegasus usage.
---Valkyrie - Female exclusive. Reason focus class that improves Black and Dark Magic Range +1 and horse usage. -
RE: General Fire Emblem Thread - At Least Mario Got a Funeral
@Johnny:
Out of curiosity, what is everyone's favorite way to handle Magic in the series? Personally, I do like the GBA system of Anima/Light/Dark. Or maybe combining the Staff with Light and Dark (Healing with Light, status effects with Dark), with Anima as a purely offensive magic. What do you guys think?
It's funny. I'm conflicted because I do miss the A>L>D>A weapon triangle. It was neat because it encouraged a lot of different magic options.
But I really, really like Three Houses set up. I wish a lot of characters had better magic options, but I suppose that's the balancing aspect of the game.
-
RE: The DEATH BATTLE thread
[hide]Yep. If there is anything that can beat Mortal Kombat stuff, it's superheroes. The best of MK can be pretty overpowered as far as fighting games are concerned, but bring in comic book folk, and the MK guys fizzle.
While I very much agree with Dinah winning that fight, I feel like the undersold Sindel as a 'dominatrix stompy stomp' fighter. But it's fine. Especially now, NRS doesn't even want to expand Sindel beyond angry dominatrix bitch, so it's gonna be whatever at this point.[/hide]
-
RE: The DEATH BATTLE thread
@SomebodyUDon'tKnow:
Dinah is good enough at hand-to-hand to have bested Batman, and has mastered several martial arts. Her cry can reach around 300 decibels; human death threshold is often around 180-200. Due to how decibels are calculated, her cry is 100x what it takes to kill a human with sound; it's been strong enough to injure Superman. She's been shown with enough power to shatter the Earth. She's plain melted metal with her cry, so I'm not sure the naginata's going to do much in the fight. She's also a genius tactician and strategist, hence being able to best Batman and his gadget nonsense (though admittedly she's seen his gadgets before).
What is Sindel's magic? Like, ripping Dinah apart telekinetically? Because she probably couldn't survive that.The only magic that has really been displayed is large bolts of magic and force fields. I'm fairly certain the bolts are formed from the same power that creates her screams. So if Dinah's scream is that loud, I think Sindel will struggle with this. Sindel can also fight people with her hair, but I severely doubt that's going to make much of a difference in the fight.
-
RE: The DEATH BATTLE thread
! How does this makes sense again?
!Resident MK nerd, so…
[hide]The explanation remains that Sindel's power level during the Sindel Massacre involve a Sindel that was powered up by Motaro's soul, Shang Tsung's soul, and all the souls Shang Tsung possessed. So it's not something Sindel naturally has in her arsenal.
This fight will depend on some key factors:
1. Whether or not they are aware Sindel had the souls she had during that fight. If they are aware, she may not have the same strength in the fight than she did during that massacre.
2. How much stronger Black Canary's cry is, because I don't entirely know because I don't know enough about comic Black Canary.
3. Whether we're dealing with original timeline Sindel or new timeline Sindel. If both, it doesn't really matter.It comes down to this…
Sindel (who I know more about):
-Considered the strongest woman in MK, but this is based more on her magic than her hand-to-hand. Most powerful spell ever was a barrier that protected Earthrealm (the Earth) from Shao Kahn's invasion.
-Her hand-to-hand combat is still excellent considering her ability to be a threat to the likes of Raiden and Shao Kahn. Wields a naginata.
-In first timeline, she managed to outsmart Shao Kahn out of his initial conquering of Earthrealm. She was also the leader of the Edenian army and was a vital ally in the defeat of Onaga.
-Banshee scream is strong enough to tear off or explode limbs.I don't know enough about Black Canary, but I know enough to question whether Dinah has a chance against Sindel in hand-to-hand. She might be more capable, but Sindel's ability to use magic could be a factor. I think the fight is going to come down to how strong Black Canary's cry is. I haven't seen enough of her feats, but if her scream can prove powerful enough to overwhelm Sindel, Black Canary could win this. Otherwise, I think Sindel has a better chance.[/hide]

RE: Anaconda Reboot
Tragic ending? What the fuck are you talking about? The two best characters are the ones who lived. If the bird died at the end rather than earlier, I'd say it was a tragic ending, but it didn't.
But the sequel was god-awful.
Yeah, but I did like Susan.
And yes, the sequel is horrendous.

RE: Anaconda Reboot
I want to say "well at least they couldn't make it worse than the original" but ohhh I'm sure they can. Though as a kid I'll admit it was a guilty pleasure for me too.
That movie is already perfect. Nobody should dare touch it.
I remember as a kid slowly getting into horror, I was excited for Anaconda. And then it was a huge let down. The remake would have to be PRETTY BAD.
And yes, Deep Blue Sea is perfect, even with the tragic ending.

RE: Mortal Kombat 11
What makes even less sense is, MK3's plot explains that:
-Shao Kahn wanted to conquer Earthrealm after Edenia was taken.
-Sindel, wanting to protect Earthrealm, created a barrier that Shao Kahn couldn't invade through, and then killed herself so the barrier couldn't be broken
-Shao Kahn has to win (whatever amount of) Mortal Kombat tournaments to merge the realmsBut now they want to act like:
-Sindel was totally cool with everything Shao Kahn wanted to do
-Quan Chi killed her, made the barrier around Earthrealm, and framed Sindel because… He wanted Shao Kahn to lose the tournament to force an invasion with Sindel corpse so that a bunch of people would die and then Shinnok creates a revenant army...That is some Zodd is Magneto is Zodd level stupidity. Especially when the original plot was simple and understandable.
