    Or units. As it should be. If I don't have to murder children and burn Christians alive to get the hot sorceress, is she even worth it?

    Hades II - roguelike dungeon crawler sequel

    After having spent a fair amount of time with the game now, I think it's safe to say that this game has more content in EA, than Hades 1 had on 1.0 release. Did not expect the EA to be this comprehensive, but glad to be proven wrong. Game is very much a sequel that doesn't attempt to reinvent...

    Dota 2 Discussion (~Boston Majors & Road to TI7~)

    Well yeah, no one did that either, other than the LoL retard I suppose. I personally wish DotA was a little less strategic at times, and a litlte more about mechanical skill, especially when it comes to skillshots. Never was a big fan of targeted spells, particularly disables, as it makes a lot...

    Dota 2 Discussion (~Boston Majors & Road to TI7~)

    You do realize you just made the same observation, right? Technically true, but still incorrect. Except for Monkey King, which had a turn-rate of 0.03, every hero had turn-speed. They just dialed it down a bit, with the slowest hero being at 0.5, and the vast majority being at 0.3-0.4. DotA2 is...

    Dota 2 Discussion (~Boston Majors & Road to TI7~)

    So is not having proper reading comprehension. I didn't say micro, did I? I said LoL is more demanding mechanically, because it is. Almost all the abilities are skillshots, disables last a lot shorter, and the game is way burstier than DotA, making it much more difficult to both land hits and...

    Dota 2 Discussion (~Boston Majors & Road to TI7~)

    They "improved" the formula as much as a cook improves a recipe by taking out all the spice and flavor. League has a higher mechanical skill requirement, while DotA is a lot more complex on a strategic level. So basically, if you have bad reflexes or simply aren't the most mechanically skilled...

    FF9 is the best Final Fantasy.

    Anime Honkai: Star Rail - It sucks almost as much as mods changing titles

    Well, it's nothing insane, but shes at 3.1k ATK, 65 critrate, 135 critdamage. 4-set grand duke, 2-set salsotto, and she's E1 with S5 breakfast LC. She can hit decently hard, but due to her low base-speed and damage being spread across Skill, Ult and Fua, she's difficult to support. Obivously...

    Anime Honkai: Star Rail - It sucks almost as much as mods changing titles

    Unfortunately I just never managed to really make her work, despite investing pretty heavily into her. At the end of the day, while she is good in those particular circumstances, I end up finding at least 3 other characters that are still better. This might partially be due to none of the PF...

    Anime Honkai: Star Rail - It sucks almost as much as mods changing titles

    Too bad she's one of the worst characters in the entire game for any content. She was my first 5-star and I've still not found a single reason to use her. Hoping my bad RNG on 50:50s on pulls will not continue, since I kinda want to pull for Robin, Firefly and Jade, but that's gonna be a tall...

    Anime Honkai: Star Rail - It sucks almost as much as mods changing titles

    Me (and others) have pointed out to you before that this change made sense in the context of being used as an insult. You're just too dumb to accept that, and instead blame libtards. You do you. Common sense would dictate that if corruption, nepotism and politics affect businesses globally...

    Unicorn Overlord - Tactical RPG by Vanillaware

    Fair enough. It's still the only place I come to for information and opinions as well, I've just grown more cynical and jaded over the years as the place has become a bigger refuge for shitposters like Andhaira or Wyrmlord than it's ever been. At least both of these still had actual opinions on...

    Unicorn Overlord - Tactical RPG by Vanillaware

    I'd argue that relying on the codex for reviews is almost as insane as relying on games journalists. Definitely seconding the demo suggestion though. You get to play the prologue and then get 5 or 6 hours to just play the game, and there's no restrictions to that at all. Once that time is over...

    Unicorn Overlord - Tactical RPG by Vanillaware

    Yeah that's just wrong. There definitely is RNG, it's actually a major part of the game I would say, and there are some specific fights (without spoiling too much) where you can cheese fights by simply rolling the dice until you dodge all of the attacks against you. It's deterministic in the...
