  • roleplay servers in any mmo are a strange, very often wonderful, wild, and sometimes scary place.

    you think you’re going in there to just give your original characters some backstory and personality. Maybe learn the lore a bit, get ”in character” and act like you’re that wizard who summons meteors, that warrior who took on a full army and won…

    you end up realizing there’s drama, lots of drama. That never just stays “in character”, you realize many people use this as a serious escape from a painful traumatic real life, and sometimes have trouble getting back into reality because of it.
    you realize most players are seriously projecting their idealized selves into their characters. Almost everyone has that “main” that has suspiciously far more details about their background than any other.

    …and You realize many people are also using it as an e-dating platform, and they’re into “that” kind of roleplay, in game and out and they’ll do whatever they can to try and drag you into it(thank god I have made it clear that’s a big no and shut down all who try).


    But something else also happens when you join a roleplay server…

    …you often find some things that are severely lacking on normal ones. A sense of community. And serious friendships.

    Don’t just join a roleplay server on a whim. Know what you might be getting into. Make it explicitly clear on your profile what kind of roleplay you’re into, what kind you’re not.

    Research it. Heavily.

    You'll either have the most fun you ever had in your game of choice, or it’ll be a nightmare.

    Back in the day, I RP’d a lot in LEGO Universe, and I don’t really remember any of this… but, I guess ”back in the day” was a really different time for all of us that were involved there, wasn’t it? Or maybe the culture in that particular game was totally different. Like, we pretended to work on a space station or be different people in town, and that was about it? It’s not like there was zero drama in general, but still.

    Anyway, I dunno if I could bring myself to RP nowadays as an adult. It’ll never quite be the way I remember it, which might be the real problem…

    It definitely depends on the game as well. The two big mmorpgs, wow and ff14. Have a very big roleplay scenes. Everything from lighthearted and goofy, to serious, to DnD style stuff, to…”that” kinda roleplay.

    but yeah it seems those games also attracted those with lots of trauma in life and the world became their escape.
    On a more serious note; part of why i went innactive for so long is…my life has been hell for several months. Just to give a small idea, i have had to start medication for something that I hadn’t needed in several years. It’s not the only reason, but it is a big one.

    I won’t go into details, and no it wasn’t antidepressants. But at one point, suicidal thoughts had crossed my mind, maybe not to what many would view as “severe” degrees, but they still happened,

    what helped pull me away, were some very close friends. Never let ANYONE tell you online friendships aren’t real. I may not of met them in person, but I’d give my life to protect each and every one of them.
    I really wish they'd nerf Ike's Nair into the ground. Let them buff something else of his to compensate, but JFC do something about his nair so Ike players won't have such a braindead playstyle. Make his smashes and tilts faster, or buff the range on some moves including other aerials, or both, IDC. Like...they could make him the most OP character in the game with the new buffs and I'd be fine with that so long as it requires ike players actually have to use a few braincells to play him and not just go on autopilot with nair the whole match.

    I mean, they did rebalance him to make him a little less reliant on Nair a while back. And the characters been gradually declining in popularity ever since MKLeo dropped him. And now he has characters like Byleth and Pyra to compete with who arguably do his job better.

    You might not even need to nerf Nair much at this point. Just buff some of his other moves. I feel like his overreliance on Nair at this point isn't just from it being such a good multipurpose spacing tool, but also from the fact that he just doesn't have a lot of other good moves in neutral.

    Hey. I know you can't see this, but I want to apologize for my outburst last night. It was jerkish of me and could've been worded differently.

    I really wish someone would file a lawsuit against Nintendo's online service. Surely there's gotta be some false advertising claim or something that someone could make. Seriously when a damn Nickelodeon game has better netcode than Nintendo, that's a problem.

    Also, I'd hate for the netcode to be fixed if it means half the roster becomes unplayable.

    I'm supposed to care about your opinion why? When you literally ***** and moan about every single character in the game, including the worst ones in the game, to the point where you even got kicked and banned from a twitch channel for you're constant excuses for losing.


    Also IDK where the **** you get that ganondorf isn't hindered by lag, when he gets just as screwed by it as anyone else, more so than some other characters. His moves are already slow enough, a laggy match that's going at a crawl makes his options only more telegraphed and obvious.

    You'd have to be an idiot to think that fixing the netcode would make the rest of the cast unplayable.

    Correction: I was banned from a Discord server. And I don't complain about everyone anymore. I complain about Nintendo not buffing my mains who desperately need buffs.

    Offline makes laggy attacks reactable. That's why offline hurts most superheavies and why they get little to no offline results or playtime.
    and once again nintendo's ****ty setup for quickplay has got me banned because I refuse to play against the ****s who put items on or smash meter.

    I've now gotten banned for almost 1 hour and 30 minutes because I ran into 3 players in a row who had a ****ty ruleset with items on or smash meter. Each one of them I d/c against them at the splash screen when I saw what ruleset they had, each one got me banned longer and longer.

    This is bull**** nintendo, stop forcing me to play against people with **** rulesets. Fix quickplay so it will never match you up with anyone who has smash meter or items on if you have those turned off for your settings. IDC how long it'd take me to find an opponent that way, setting in the lobby area for over 5, maybe even 10 minutes for an opponent is a hell of a lot better than getting matched up against someone with a ****ty ruleset immediately that I'm not gonna finish and then I get banned for over an hour for.

    This is why for glory and for fun in smash4 will always > then quickplay in ultimate. you knew what you were getting in those modes everytime, 100%. None of this bull**** where you "might" be in an item or smashball match, or you "might" not.

    Another one is the setting with one stock. They are there just for the quick match and leave to gain GSP. I don't like it when it is like this:

    the game is close with 1 stock remaining and after sometime you got the final hit. Seconds before GAME, they quit to not let you raise GSP. I don't care for GSP, but quitting just to save your pride isn't sportsmanship. Then again, it is the internet, so no one knows who you truly are behind an anonymous name.

    Dukefire Dukefire still though, if someone else shows greatly superior skill than you and you manage to luckily get a cheap victory on this superior opponent and leave with the brownie points it's messed up.

    That's how some are on Online Smash Bros. Just got to move on if that happens.
    for those who've ever played dbfz, can they explain what the different playstyles of all the versions of goku are? Every video I see of DBFZ, makes it appear that everyone is a rushdown, and I see so many versions of goku in the game, where the only main differences I notice from the videos are their supers (and base goku going kaioken, and kid goku from GT obviously being very different.) but I can't make out the more subtle differences from a video that I'm sure i'd notice if I actually played the game.

    SO....what are the differences? Less/more health? Some moves stronger but slower, or vice versa? some having teleports or command grabs the others don't?

    Main reason I ask is i've been getting curious about DBFZ lately and might want to get it, but I would like to know the differences from the one character who seems to have 6 different versions or so of him playable.

    The burning of bladder enrages my soul
    And the toddler within loses control
    Gotta let it out- gotta let it out-
    Gotta let it out- gotta let it out-
    This piss inside has a hold of me
    Clenching my bladder- trying to break free
    Gotta let it out- gotta let it out-
    Gotta let it out- gotta let it ouuuuuuut!

    Drive fast, baby- don't be slow
    Punch ahead- hold on- I have to gooo
    I don't think I can hold
    All this piss that's inside me
    Bladder burns- Piss dripping- Yeah I can't hold
    Branded by my drink- Born in the bladder
    Golden yellow sprinkle- I just can't resist
    All this urine inside me

    All of these thoughts runnin' through my head
    Bladder on fire, pain in the red
    Frustration is gettin' bigger
    Spray spray spray- Take a golden shower
    Embrace the pain that's within me
    No slowing down my car anymore
    When this tingling consumes me
    Nothing can stop me and I hate red lights
    I'm a wild driver you won't tame
    Not even a ticket can put out my flame
    There's no way to contain
    This storm swelling inside me
    There's a bomb you can't defuse
    Might as just accept It's getting loose
    Can't turn down- I refuse
    I must hold back more

    All of these tingles inside of meee
    Blinding my sight in a curtain of gold
    Frustration is gettin' bigger
    Spray spray spray- Take a golden shower
    When I get home it's not overrrrrrr
    I fight through to get closerrrr
    Like a golden bullet piercing through
    I wet my pants...In front of you-

    All of this burning inside of my head-
    Wetting my pants as my eyes grow red-
    Frustration is getting bigger
    Spray spray spray- But I missed the toilet-

    EDIT: looking back this was extreme…they were drunks rummaging through the old houses garbage nothing more…
    I think I'ma go ahead and get mh:rise even though Iknow i'll fall into the same situation I have with every monster hunter game...
    I remember years ago there was a TV show called "My name is Earl" and While I don't remember much from the show, I do remember two episodes specifically, one where he tries to make up to a guy who's honeymoon he ruined and works in place of him at a fast food resturant so the guy and his wife could actually have their real one, just cuz the episode was hilarious imo, and the other, where he threw a funeral for a guy who nobody seemed to know...because spent his social life online.

    And that's the kind of funeral I want. Yeah it was pretty much done for humor throughout the episode, but I'm pretty sure most gamers would honestly want something like that, where all the people they knew in their online life paid their respects to them. I'd also like it cuz I don't really care much for most of my actual family(hence why i avoid them), and don't really socialize with people in person at all since I just don't care for it, so needless to say my actual in person funeral would be quite small. But I'm extremely active and social online, whether it be WoW, all the game sites I visit, and even the old radio forums I go to. So for me, I'd much rather have only my closest family, and maybe one childhood friend I grew up with, attend my actual funeral, while any friends I've made online paid their respects in some way on the internet.
    According to infinite universe theory, there exists a universe where ganondorf is actually a viable character in all smash games he appeared in.



    ....actually scratch that, even with infinite universes there's not a single one where the Sakurai of that universe actually cares enough about Ganondorf to make him viable.
    You know....I admit I have ragequit/dc'd in quickplay/elite smash sometimes, But i have NEVER DC'd on someone in an arena, I'm far more respectful to my opponents there, no matter how toxic they end up being, or how outclasssed/outplayed I am by them. I'll just finish the match and leave in a worst case scenario, most of the time I'll finish a few more rounds to at least try and win a few.

    So now I have to call out someone from the battle arenas. They just got stomped on by my Ganondorf, 2 stocked easily. They DC'd/ragequit immediately when I baired them into the stage as they were recovering and didn't tech.


    The real kicker? their arena was in Glorious smashers, and was claiming for players "to please be good"

    Don't put up an arena like that and then ragequit when you actually find an opponent who is good. You won't get called out then.

    Oh well. Replay is saved was saved cuz he rage quit right as he hit the blastzone so I could still clip it ;) and it'll go into my Ganon montage, I'll make sure to call them out there too by name ;3. You were a sephiroth buddy, you got no excuses getting two stocked by literally one of the worst characters in the game.
    I really don't know if I should attempt another monster hunter game since each time I've tried to get into the series, I get burnt out after about the halfway point in the story, and then the rest of the game online shortly after, never to pick it up again.

    But I also kinda wanna join up with groups again and use my heavy bowgun to take down enemies from afar. I still remember one of my best moments in a previous monster hunter was as a bowgunner where a dragon enemy boss was just about to fly off(can't remember the boss exactly, it has been a LONG time since I played...), and the group was getting ready to go chase it again into the next areas, when I hit the perfect shot at it in the air and caused it to plummet back down, doing major damage and stunning it so we could finish it. The possibility of me getting something like that again almost makes me want to pick it up again.....

    ...and then I remember the nightmarish grind when going through the single player stuff to just get my weapon and armor to where it was decent enough before heading online, and suddenly don't feel as motivated to jump back in.
    Although I know it wouldn't happen, it'd be hilarious if Nintendo dropped the next trailer for character 5, and it was just waluigi as an assist trophy, right until the very end when AT waluigi get's smacked away by actual fighter Waluigi.

    It'd be the most awesome way to reveal him IMO.
    IDK why, I was so exhausted from work today I passed out for 2 hours the instant I got home. I just woke up now and i'm still so tired and my whole body aches.

    It's not like today was really any different from most other days this week, so I'm not sure why it all hit me today....
    You know I really wish nintendo would give ganondorf an actual buff, and not some tiny **** like they did last patch. That or nerf several of his worst matchups. Sure it's nice to finally not get tech checked as easily anymore...

    ...but that doesn't really matter much when characters like robin can effortlessly camp him, samus, the belmonts, duck hunt, or really any projectile camper, can all just shut him down easily. And then you have bull**** like what the ice climbers can do to him, and have been able to do to him, in all 3 games they've each appeared in.

    Surely Nintendo knows there's certain matchups just flat out unwinnable realistically for ganondorf right? WHy not just rework ganondorf and make him viable just once, instead of making any and all fans of the character want to rip their hair out because he's been garbage 3 games in a row, and the only game he was semi-decent in was when he was a 100% clone of falcon.

    This is why I main ganondorf. He might be Bottom tier, but when he gets in his opponents heads...

    If his properties are reasonably consistent with his Brawl iteration, then I think he does best when the player slowly converges on their opponent's position, resorting to hard reads at medium-short range to 'overpower' his opponent. I at least think that his moveset design was engineered around that concept.
    I really should probably start watching more animes as opposed to reading up on them. I see lots of crazy anime shows listed on netflix or hulu, or popular ones from meme's (jojo's bizarre adventure, bobobo-bo bo-bobo, Kill la Kill)...and then read up on them on wikipedia's, but never actually have watched any. I've even went so far as to read each episode list and spoil the plots of a few(assassination classroom...), and yet still....i haven't watched any actual episodes.
    It's both terrifying and embarrassing what youtube tries to recommend I view when I'm not logged in, all because it's going by my devices location So many rightwing nutjub conspiracy videos, some downright calling for more violence, and none of them providing even anything remotely like evidence to support their "arguments"...

    ...and this **** is being generated strictly based on what others in my state view and rate. Many people here actually believe this bull****..

    And then my wife wonders why I hate my home state so much and desperately want to move....
    I really can't figure the hell out of why people deliberately use troll rulesets online like stamina and large stages just so they can run away the entire match. They know full well their opponent will DC from a ****ty ruleset right at the start so neither get any GSP. So wtf is the point? Why waste both of our time?
    I’m hyped for pyra and mythra. Idc what the haters say. My Ganondorf now has a light to balance the shadow, and my ryu...now has a fire waifu? ...yes I’m shipping Ganondorf with Mythra and Prya with Ryu, deal with it.

    noregrets
    SO it's a safe bet that pyra/mythra will be released almost immediately after the presentation considering we all got a notice that the game will be updated to 11.0.0 soon.


    I know it's pointless to hope so given the games past patches constantly screwing us over, but before, perhaps this will be the patch we finally see some dorf buffs...

    Lucario with a spike would be a dream come true, but I’m not going to hold my hopes out for it.
