Unless they already spoke, no. I can't think of anything. Even if Crowley was thinking about it, a simple call to remind him "hey, you endorsed me, remember?" should probably have been move one. The primary was pretty low turnout so I seriously doubt it. She's probably just freaking out over the idea that his voters didn't pay enough attention during the primary and when they all show up will just vote for him blindly since he's on the ballot. Which is easily fixable by a few joint-campaign stops.

This is kind of hilarious. Dude doesn't want to do anything unethical, like register to vote in a state he doesn't live in or run for a seat he doesn't want, and is getting shit for it. NY election law can be dumb sometimes. He didn't lose because he lives outside of NY, he lost because he wasn't able to connect with the voter base that well anymore/get out his voters. Presumably he's still gonna be living in the district going forward (a lot of Congressmen and women get a second room in VA so they don't have to sleep in their office when Congress is in session). There's what's legal and what's ethical. Running for a seat you don't want or registering to vote someplace you don't live ain't exactly ethical.

For the record Jessica Price has been a target of hate movements for at least a year before her recent comments and firing. Several sites and subreddits popular among hate movements like r/Kotakuinaction and Kiwifarms had threads or comments labeling her as a "notorious SJW" when she left the company she previously worked at before Arenanet. The thread on the GW2 subreddit about her joining ArenaNet was locked by moderators after it was derailed by negative comments about her and her "politics" – It's simply not accurate to suggest that Jessica only became a target of harassment after she was already fired.

Remember that we did only see a demo and one very early on in the game. Given this is supposed to be a GO player's first introduction to mainline Pokemon, hold items might just wind up unlocking and getting explained after the point we've seen. Or they could well have just not bothered putting them into the demo. A Dragonite without access multiscale or extreme speed likely wouldn't dominate as much, so it'd make for an interesting meta.

The issue goes all the way back to the 90's. The NYTimes had an article about it a month ago or so. Governors have been raiding the MTA for upstate projects, the city hasn't been paying what it's supposed to, and that's along with a mess of other issues. Had things been run properly for the last 30 years we wouldn't be having this issue or even talking about ending 24/7 service and inconveniencing tons of people who work the night shift or a second job.

The larger point I remember from the Times article is the current situation is a result of an accumulation of different shit over time, that being one of them, and that's why it's this bad right now. Basically if all that stuff never happened we don't find ourselves here talking about that. Edit: my point is dudes from upstate shouldn't be talking like they got no blame here.

I agree 100%, but good luck getting the rest of the country to agree to it. As someone who has used the Boston subway, no. It's shit. The NYC system covers way more ground and is a billion times easier to navigate. Plus it doesn't shut down at night and you never have to walk across the tracks.

There should be a fair number of steel types I presume. Also, don't forget Alolan Rattata and Meowth are both dark types. Also, there's enough part poison types to scare off what few fairies there are. Remember that every grass type, and almost every bug type, in gen 1 was part poison. I imagine Alakazam and Gengar will be huge threats in the meta unless bug and dark moves get passed around quite a bit. The sheer speed, SpA, and movepool will make them both pretty dangerous.

Luckily neither Alakazam nor Gengar get Earth Power, so that should work. That said, I'd be interested to see how hard a neutral hit from those two is on Alolan Muk simply because they both have such a varied movepool. Either way, I think most singles teams will wind up carrying Alakazam/Gengar and Alolan Muk. Oh wait, do you think Multiscale Extreme Speed Dragonite will make it into the game? If we can bring that forward from past gens then that's threat #1 easily. One of those can eat a fairy or ice move and with weakness policy equipped that's basically game over. It's a big threat even in the current meta if you use it right and Kanto won't have it's hard counters.

Given that the battles themselves don't seem to be changing (Pokemon still have four moves and HP bars), I doubt they're changing how stats work. If the point of this game is to bring GO players into the mainline fold then it would make no sense at all to alter how stats work. From what we've seen the only real changes have been to cater to GO players with the capture and wild Pokemon mechanics.

This isn't the first time GameFreak has done taken Pokemon with fewer stats and moved them to a gen past the split. Hell, when you move RBY VC Pokemon into the box for use in future games it does it. It'd just be the same sort of implementation, it's not even something they'd have to dream up, it's something they've already got the code written and implemented for. If it wasn't for that fact I'd be a bit concerned too. If I'm wrong dig this up and I'll eat my crow, but I'm not worried about this in particular.

Right, but at the same time we don't know everything about how GO integration works yet. Because remember that Pokemon in GO only have two moves, but we know for a fact that this game's Pokemon can learn 4 moves. So there's a few wrinkles to iron out either way. And if they're willing to figure out a fix for the 4 move issue why not the stat one? Especially since they're already half-way there.

One percent of current GO players is like 600k people. I'd think game to get that number into the series proper is worth it. It'd be worth it at half a percent. Imagine if they get more than one percent. How is it not easily a risk worth taking?

So they wind up doing what they did when people bring Pokemon over from prior gens after the physical/special split happened and the special stat was changed to SpA and SpD: they just add an extra stat and randomize the IVs. It's not like there's no precedent for them handling this sort of thing. There's probably a CP to lvl equivalence baked into the game. So if a Pokemon is a xCP then it has xlvl. We can already kinda see it in that screen showing off catching Clefairy.

They're trying to ease GO players into the mainline games. They don't want to change things up too much simply because the whole point is to give them a familiar base to start from. So they implement the GO capture system wholesale so that they know exactly what to do in that situation, just throw the ball, and ease them into traditional battling by making it against trainers. There'd be no point to this if they threw in wild battles only for GO players to not really get how they work. Remember, these are for people who either haven't played a mainline game in or have never even played one at all. It's being made with them in mind, not us. We get that 2019 game.

I think something like UBI accomplishes the same goal while allowing us to get rid of those pointless jobs and frees up people's time to do things that they want to do instead of having them sit in an office doing nothing for 8 hours a day. A job guarantee is the sort of policy that made sense back in the 50's and 60's when factory jobs galore were to be had, but now it's just going to feed into automation and have people working jobs that will have a negative effect on their mental health.

Achievements aren't shit. Hinata did things that actually changed the direction of the story. When Pain beat Naruto, she stepped in, lost, and he went 8-tails. Without that moment the entire series takes a different path. Sakura doesn't have anything close to that. Even the stuff in the OP doesn't reach the level of actually affecting and changing the direction of the story, and the one moment that does (the Kaguya one) is definitely an exaggeration. Like 90% of that list is purely background tier shit. You could replace her with a sentient first aid kit or a radio for most of that and nothing would change. Neither of them are great, but only one of them has actual agency in the larger story and it ain't Sakura.

You misunderstand, agency in a character works like this:In that moment Hinata takes action to achieve her goal (she likes Naruto but also wants to be more like him) and her action directly causes the story to take a change in direction that it would not have taken otherwise. All of the achievements the OP gives to Sakura have nothing to do with her wants/goals in the series, they're more general actions that could be taken by anyone else and have nothing to do with her specifically (as a character). Sakura, on the other hand, never really takes direct action to achieve her goal (bringing Sauske home). Like, neither of them are good characters, but one clearly has agency while the other does not.

It'd be weird is Logias were the only ones that couldn't awaken. It could just be that most who have them don't bother trying to figure out how given how strong their powers already are. Even in the face of Haki the logias we've seen so far have been strong (when both users can use Haki anyway).

I mean, even with just her Mythra powers she could potentially destroy the world. Her perfect form had the ability to rewrite reality itself, if I'm remembering right. Letting someone wield the former would take a lot of trust, let alone the latter. She'd pretty much be putting the entire universe in his hands every time they fought. She does it for Rex because, well we all know why, but it seems she didn't have the same sort of relationship with Adamm.

Yea. No matter how strong you are, a full force Nen punch to the vitals (when you're completely off-guard) is going to deal a amount of damage. Even if they don't get the kill, it would probably weaken the king enough for someone else to finish the job.

The anime community has a bad enough rep as is, no reason to needlessly reinforce that. EDIT: Anyway, we all know where the line is in here so let's just be careful about it while having this discussion. Just remember that defending the sexualization of underage girls is an instant ban.

Thread: Nintendo's Konno feels console games will need to provide constant engagement features a la mobile
Nintendo has already been doing this. Xenoblade 2 has had almost constant free updates and paid DLC patches (with substantial amounts of content) since it's release. Same with Splatoon 2 and a lot of their other releases. They haven't gone the GaaS route and frankly this is how constant engagement should be: substantial paid and free updates to games to keep you coming back. So long as they keep adding new content to their games instead of stuff like lootboxes I am perfectly fine with paying for it. Xenoblade has probably been the ideal implementation that they've been going for. It's had an almost constant stream of new content, from DLC quests and blades to NG+ to the upcoming hard mode and huge DLC expansion.

We have a 110+ year old subway system that turns into a sauna in the summer with how hot it gets in there. We experience all four seasons, tourists love to come here in droves all year long but particularly more so in the summer, and we recently happen be the worst city in the US to retire in because of continually rising costs of living/rent.

Long Island is the suburban section of NYC where you get to see lots and lots of trees. We’re also BFFs with neighboring states New Jersey and Connecticut which together form the Tri-State area. Further upstate is Albany where all the state legislative magic happens as well places such as Buffalo, Oswego, New Paltz, and Lake Eerie among others.

Between actor/writer/producer/production raises and the network wanting to squeeze as much money as they can from each show, it's not shocking. If they were going to do a definitive final season CW would probably give them all the cash they needed (within reason), but so long as there's no end in sight they'll just take the money the show makes and use it to try and make new shows.

You're making a lot of assumptions about how he was treated. The fact is he doesn't get brought up because of two reasons:The boys don't save people they said they would . Even leaving all that aside, he was nothing more than a plot device. They get him out, then what? His story goes nowhere, he was created specifically to get Michael a host for the season five finale. Even if they decided to just rehash what happened with Sam, why should we as viewers care? He was around for two episodes.

I presume a lack of prep-time.

It makes sense when you consider where Sam was after just a short amount of time in the cage. Adam's been in there for years, there likely hasn't been anything of him left for a while now. So why risk the end of days starting up again to go after someone who is likely dead, and if he's not they'd still need to exorcise an arch angel and throw it back in the cage. That's like three impossible tasks with no margin for error. I could see them trying it for Bobby, but they barely know Adam.

Death isn't just a horseman though, he's like Chuck: a force of nature. His abilities were far beyond the other horseman and even says Lucifer had bound him with a spell. He wasn't born a horseman, he was born Death and going of the logic of the show there always needs to be a Death. Having a dead reaper become Death, should the OG Death die, is a pretty poetic way of going about it.

I think it'll wind up being someone domestic. The federation might be a bit gun shy on someone that hasn't had any MLS experience after Klinsmann. I could see a former player turned coach, Henry might be good but he doesn't have enough coaching experience yet. So probably gonna be Berthalter or Marsch. If it's Marsch he needs to stop overthinking everything in the big games, he might have a bit of a complex about it at this point. I think all the knockout game flame-outs have him second guessing how good his best 11 is, it'll probably get better once we win something though.

Yea, the whole thing was a mess. Reading this, I'm shocked we made the last World Cup. A lot of this we knew, but tons we didn't. Dempsey shouldn't have ever been captain and Gulatti should have had some balls. The thing is, this barely even touches how Klinsmann all but ignored bringing in younger players after Brazil. He'd barely even look at MLS when it came to this. That's not even getting into how fucked up the locker room got. The US used to be a team that would routinely punch well above it's weight simply because they had a "never say die" attitude and always had each other's backs. Whoever comes next has to be the sort of coach that can get that feeling back because there's a lot of talent coming up right now and with that attitude of old (combined with the talent they seem to have) they could shock some people.

It's definitely part of it, but it's also how local RBNY's team is. There's a bunch of guys that grew up watching the squad, dreaming of playing in a big rivalry game, getting to live that dream. So they give everything they have and then some. Everyone on every team gears up big time for a rivalry match, but the local guy who grew up watching is going to gear up way more than normal. I also hope Vieira adjusts, because as much fun as it is winning like this I do kinda want these games to be a bit more competitive.

I kinda disagree with Warshaw that the press would be easier to implement. You need specific types of players at a specific fitness level to pull it off and the pressing schemes can get pretty complicated and require everyone to buy in and be totally insync to pull off, if even one guy is a step late it all falls apart. Most of the guys coming up right now could pull it off, I think we mostly have the right kinds of players right now, but that's only best 11. Pretty much everyone in the front four needs to be able to play make and score, so I'm not sure if the depth is there to do it. Plus it wouldn't work on anyone in region except Mexico, since there's a lot of bunkering among CONCACAF teams.

Like the article says, a lot of kids don't see themselves when they look at the game internationally and even locally at times. I mean, look at the stars that MLS pushes: not a lot of black dudes. It's basically BWP and Jozy Altidore at this point and until recently the league was more than happy to ignore BWP in it's marketing despite his consistently high level of play. Luckily things look to be changing in regards to the US national team, the kids coming up are a pretty diverse lot. All that said, it's going to be a process. I can't wait for part 3 of that article series though.

In fairness to him, you shouldn't talk shit to Metro twitter before a game if you can't take the heat after you lose. And the mighty will only become mightier. If RBNY do get him I imagine they'll work him in like they did Kaku, in which case he'll be ready for a play-off run. Hell, they might even use the open cup run to get him ready faster. Why the hell is RBNY so high? Why are we higher than NYCFC? We're not the ones who go around breaking chairs and starting fights all over the damn place! It really is us against the world. EDIT: Probably some combination of DC, NYCFC, Philly, and New England fans. Everyone wants RBNY to be their rival, but there's only one DC.

The thing is, all of Metro twitter has been on pretty good terms with the ATL SB Nation guy until just after this game. So it was more funny for me than anything else, we had good banter with that dude in the build up. Also if you want a team that's been fucked over by the refs almost constantly for 20 years or so, look no further. There's Metro dudes salty about Henry's last game and the no call at the very end of it. I think the ATL United fan base just needs a bit more experience with losing, you're all too used to beating everyone who comes down there bloody. But that's generally an expansion team thing. Yea, if he's leaving at the end of the year then we'll be fine. Casseres Jr will be ready for the first team by next year so losing Adams will probably save us a bit of a headache. In the short term I'm more worried about losing Murillo after the World Cup. I still don't think we've nailed down a replacement yet. Apparently reporting on it might have been early, but it's probably still legit. I'm not sure NYCFC have anyone in the pipeline who can just pick up and carry the baton like RBNY do with Woly and Armas. That said, after the World Cup there's going to be a huge shuffle of coaches so there's good odds you can get a decent one.

There's a second source saying the Tyler Adams to Leipzig deal is done. No idea on the transfer fee or any of that, but it'll be announced within a week. It's funny because the right calls were generally made in this game, even if that penalty was soft you got it gifted back by not getting a second sent off so it evens out. I think anyway. Marking BWP would have only helped so much I think. This year's team is like a hydra, it's not easy to shut everyone down at once. Someone's gonna slip something through at some point, generally BWP since he's got the experience. You guys definitely have a long history of getting hosed in baseball though, goddamn.

I think whoever gets the US squad next is kinda lucky. They'll have a glut of young talent to play with. There's like 3 or four CBs that could start, midfield looks to have a lot of competition between old stalwarts and the new hotness as well. Jozy's probably still our best option up top until Weah and Seargent develop a bit more though, but they should both be ready by qualifying. All that said, I'm a bit worried about the seeming lack of options out wide. Centrally I think we're golden, but not out wide. Yea, I've been going down there for the away matches this year when I can. I don't have a season ticket this year because I need to try and save money for school, so I go to what home games I can and go down there for the aways. Yea, I saw that earlier.

He's beaten a much slower press last year with an inexperienced Tyler Adams. He also went more over the top than he did in this game. This team is leagues better than last year, both physically and technically, and better fits for the system as well. They're much harder to play through than they were. Edit: I'm not saying they can't be beat, but trying to play a passing game through the middle is like asking the press to shred you. There's far easier ways to win.

The issue is that NYCFC still have no answer for the press. Vieira is a good coach, but he's wholly unwilling to admit he can't just play through the press. He refuses to bunker, play nasty, and hit RBNY on the counter. The thing is that RBNY is just going to get better and better as well. This is a very young team outside of BWP and Robles. As they get more and more experience they'll just keep improving.

Ultimate Scoring Machine If anything BWP's game has been getting better and better each year since that 27 goal season. Hell the other year when he had 24 every single one was from the run of play, had he been taking the PK's as well he'd have likely broken the record easily. RBNY's issue this year has been getting Royer, Kaku, and Valot hot. Kaku is still adjusting so he'll keep improving, as is Valot. Royer though, we're all really hoping that last game was the switch getting flipped. If Roter's got that monkey off his back you should expect to see that BWP number tick up again as he's gotten good at providing assists. EDIT: More dudes dying their hair confirmed

You going too? City tends to play differently against RBNY due to the high-press being the natural enemy to playing out of the back. They go a bit more with the long balls, otherwise it'd just turn into another 7-0 drumming like it did the first time Vieira coached City against RBNY. Against RBNY you either bunker and counter or play over the top, can't really pass through the press. Can't say I'm a huge fan of City's supporter culture though. It's too geographically focused and they start too many fights when they come out. The road guys stole seats from Orlando's stadium last year, among other things. Atlanta is cool though. EDIT: Also, pigeons is better than whatever City dudes think passes for banter. Oh no, we have a beautiful SSC stadium in Jersey. We're the only NY team with a stadium in Jersey. Boo hoo hoo. Poor us. It's not like we've ever had to travel a literal 109 miles longer than usual just to go to a home game.

It's certainly the direction Red Bull and Dallas have taken, with the former bearing lots of fruit. From what's gone around about the money involved, RBNY makes way more off the academy than the team itself. That said, a real academy requires a big amount of money upfront and then you've got to run a USL side to get the graduates some pro experience and that's even more cash. Once it's all set up it'll probably become self-sustaining for most teams, but that would take a few years.

Jesse was afraid of the Chivas attack after what they did to Seattle--I'm not sure he gets exactly how good this team is yet--and so he played 5 in the back. Chivas had nothing going forward, we didn't need 3 CBs. We needed another midfielder instead. Swap out Colin for Rza and we have a much easier time going forward. Everyone at Legend's was yelling at the TV for the swap every 10 minutes after the half until he got sent off. We weren't playing our best 11 in their best formation and it showed. Luckily Jesse won't have the manpower for a 5-1-3-1 (the 3-3-3-1) and will be forced into a 4-2-3-1 with our best 11. Kaku would be icing on the cake, but Chivas is definitely beatable without him. There's no reason for us to miss the final if this was all Chivas has to throw at us. Their one goal wasn't because they had anything special, but because Adams had a brainfart and they punished us for it. All that is even discounting the fact we got CONCACAFed by the refs. We're going to be at home, at sea level, with our best 11 in their best spots on Tuesday. If we don't win and advance that's entirely on us. Jesse needs to realize this team doesn't have to be afraid of anyone, they could win it all. EDIT: I love Ben Mines, FYI

What else is new? That said, Wood isn't going to be starting next cycle. He doesn't have the passing or hold-up play needed to bring the midfield into the attack. I just don't get why we didn't start Rubin or Weah. There's a big Pulisic sized hole in the possession map for this game. They couldn't get anything going down the middle, just endless crosses. I just don't get not playing the younger guys at this point. We should be getting guys like Weah minutes, real minutes and not just cameos. There's no reason not to just throw everyone in the deep-end for a half and see what happens. It's not like Paraguay is particularly good, it was a perfect match to give the younger guys real minutes. I think Sarachan is too busy trying to win a job he has no chance at winning. Dude needs to realize he's just keeping the seat warm and take some risks. I'd rather a loss where we see some flashes of what the kids got than this.

I think if anyone's going to move in the coming years it's Colorado. They don't have a good rivalry going with . I think it's fair to say every team with a big rival is safe. But if they move Columbus and bring in Cincinnati then they are truly incompetent. Both towns already hate each other, give them a real soccer rivalry and it'd help both teams build stronger fanbases. We talk about how the Hudson Derby is a plastic, corporate driven rivalry, but NYCFC probably sees more attendance loss year over year without it being there. A rivalry can help solidify a fanbase behind a team and get people in seats. RBNY fans might not always show up for Western Conference games, but they come out of the woodwork for NYCFC and DC United matches.

Despite everything that happened to him he still had a good career. He's going to be one of those guys we look back on and wonder about though. Definitely. I was worried when it was all but confirmed that Felipe was getting traded, but after last night I think this is going to be a team to watch. They move fast and the press is more relentless than ever. The rest of the league had better not sleep on them. EDIT: Hurrican just told Simonian to fuck off and are going to be trying to get all their players out of their contracts with him (if they have one). #PussettoWatch officially begins.

I mean, a good academy system can be a difference maker. Dallas and RBNY are the poster children for playing your kids. Sure we haven't won the Cup yet, but we're always contenders and we always give the best teams a run for their money. A good academy system can get you some good talent for cheap if you do it right. It's in most teams best interest to have a good academy, not everyone can be Real Madrid and just buy what they need.

Yea. I'd give him the technical director job in a heartbeat, so long as he recognizes how US Soccer has been ignoring the Hispanic community in this country, but his comments on that game have given me a bit of pause on the top job. I think whoever gets that job needs to be willing to be straight up the whole time. An unwillingness to look at the issues with and surrounding the team clearly are why we're missing the World Cup. Arena got too full of himself after the Panama beatdown (and got out-coached to an embarrassing degree as a result) and Klinsmann never should have been given the renewal he was (and should have been fired six months earlier than he was). That's all not even getting into the youth stuff. Holy crap, there's just so much wrong there it isn't even funny. Going forward, whoever gets the job needs to be able to say the unpopular thing and do what needs to be done. Anyone who isn't willing to do that is just going to be more of the same.

That's the issue. No matter who we get it's either going to be more of the same or the soccer version of MAGA. Wynalda is basically soccer Trump: an utter moron who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the job. Martino doesn't seem to be willing to look at the team clearly and say we played poorly when we did. The SUM lady, whose name I forget, is probably going to be a continuation of Gulati. So at this point I say pick your poison. I might complain about him but I'd still go with Martino 10 times out of 10 given the choices.

It's about giving the guys behind him minutes and letting them develop. Both Keita and Davis have the stuff to be big for the club, plus RBNY has a good track record of developing centerbacks so Redding should pan out after a bit with RB2. Combined with that DP deal the team is trying to do and we need the space in midfield. The trade is more about other stuff going on around it and not so much the trade itself.

The rumor among RBNY twitter is we'll get Brilliant and a buttload of TAM for him. It's gotten to the point where RBNY has a hard time not playing Davis. He's got the stuff to be the face of the club going forward and as much as I love Sacha he's not getting any younger. Between Davis and Ketia, I'm not sure we can't afford to lose Sacha. I think it opens the squad up to play that 4-2-2-2 that Jesse wanted to last season and gives up a bit more versatility in terms of formation. We won't be stuck needing to play a traditional 10 all the time.

Pretty much what it comes down to. Arena gave Bradley a job that could only be done by the best #6 in the world. Now Bradley might be one of the better #6's in CONCACAF, but he wasn't good enough to do the job Arena needed him to do. Arena outcoached Panama to an astonishing degree, it went to his head, and he didn't make the adjustments he needed to in the next game so he got outcoached in return. If he had run a 4-2-3-1 we'd probably still be going to the World Cup. EDIT: This isn't even considering the madness it took to start Jozy for both those games when he was just coming off a small injury. All-in-all Arena flubbed that last game and probably deserves to hold that L more than anyone on the team.

I'm not even sure conjuring lightning would even be possible, we've seen dudes conjure physical objects before but lightning is more a phenomenon than an object. So thinking about it, that might not be possible. Maybe he could learn to conjure a battery pack for a recharge, but it feels like a bit of a waste of a Nen ability. I feel like he's just better off upping what he can hold off a single charge. As far as that gates thing, that sounds way too much like a Naruto jitsu and those were a bit of a joke for them even before they learned Nen.

I think the Hatsu where you actually create a physical object are the ones that don't persist through death. I have no way of proving this, but I just feel like it makes a certain amount of sense. Kurapika's nen chain around the heart would probably stick around, or just plain trigger, if he died but that's a conjured item with a very specific purpose and goal. I feel like something more general wouldn't stick around because the conjurer didn't create them with a specific goal in mind. Nen that persists through death just seems like the idea of a dying curse to me, so without that specific and powerful impulse I don't think it would persist.

There's a distinct difference between "this will take some time off my life" and "this took an exact number of years off my life." You never get exact with this stuff unless it's going to come into play at some point. Also, I guess it's agree to disagree here. Kurapika might have an amazing ability to use against the Spiders, but they're still able to beat him now that they know what he can do. Plus he's essentially the weakest player in the current arc given all he can use is the dolphin that kills him in real time and his normal chain.

Yea, it works great if she's directly attacked but it might not work at all if she's indirectly attacked. Then, as you point out, there's the question of range. Just seeing it happen once is enough to create a ton of questions as to what it can deal with. For example, could you beat her to within an inch of her life and leave her to die? Would that trigger the ability? There's also the question of what kind of damage it can bring her back from and exactly what level of enemy it's able to handle.

I'm just thinking, would leaving her the ability to recover be enough to get out of it. The beating her to within an inch of her life example, you technically haven't killed her and have given her the ability to seek help and recover.

Leorio's power is pretty versatile, I don't think he needs a condition to be strong.

Basically you don't want to get too close to him, but staying at range isn't going to be a great option either. And god help you if he gets the jump on you. I'd really like to see how a Leorio fight plays out, there's a lot of potential with his moveset.

It is a bit more complicated than the sort of plots we've gotten until now. HxH plots have been very simple, but with complex execution. You're also ignoring the fact that the V6 would be making enemies of the Zoldicks in this scenario, which is probably the very last thing any of them want to do. The V6 knows where they live, everyone knows where they live, and yet they're always left alone. There's also the question as to how would they even find all of that out. Who is going to tell? They'd need a snitch and I'm not sure the series has anyone dumb enough to get on the bad side of a Zoldick. They're pretty much the one group of people no one fucks with if they can help it. I think you're just going way too complicated and overthinking it. When Gon and Killua come back in it'll probably be another relatively simple plot line, like Gon wanting to get his Nen back or the expedition going missing.

I think you're going way too complicated with that theory. Given what we know about the Dark Continent and the fact people rarely ever come back, Gon, Killua, and Alluka could simply just go off to find Kurapika and the others after they don't come back. Both Gon and Killua would be driven to action if their friends are assumed dead and it would mirror Netero's own trip to the Dark Continent (he went with two friends, one of which was a Zoldick).

The fight requires the use of chain attacks. Stack orbs by getting elemental combos and then once you have 3 or 4 up activate Pyra's super mode and start a chain attack. From there just break orbs and win. Basically the final fight requires you to put together everything you've already learned about the combat system otherwise the boss will just nuke you to death.

Gotta know how to work the chain attack system for that fight. The one-hit kill triggers at a specific health percentage, so you need to have enough elemental orbs on the boss for a chain attack to kill him before that point or you lose.

Generally you should be stacking orbs on everyone you fight and going into chain attacks just before they enter an enraged state. I haven't started with the super bosses yet, but from my experience with my revenge tour so long as you get 4 orbs up and break them all you can melt anyone from half health to overkill with a single chain attack.

I mean, just keep in mind that after you get a certain blade you don't need to run a dedicated healer at all and can just throw that blade (along with one or two other healer blades) on your other two party members. I use a tank (with a healing blade) and two DPS (one running a single healing blade) and it works fine.

You need to do a rare blade quest in Gormott first, then you can do this one in Uraya. You shouldn't be pulling anything on Rex, he doesn't need random blades. You get some really good attack blades he can use through the game. Use random blades on your other characters, they'll need the help filling out their load outs. I'm in the middle of trying to optimize my blades for my team and pulling stuff on Rex early on has made it harder than it should be.

Level isn't a huge deal, knowing how the combat system works is more important. You could out level a unique mob by 20 levels and still get destroyed if you can't use the system correctly. So long as the mobs you're fighting aren't ~10 levels above you they won't pose much of a challenge (if you can abuse the system properly).

Obviously we aren't talking about the last two chapters, but beyond that I can't tell what is and is not a spoiler anymore. If the thread wants to come together and say "everything past chapter x needs to be in tags" I'll add it to the OP for clarity. On topic: The only two healer blades I use are her and Boreas. They're both on different characters, and it seems to work very well for me. It's far from an ideal set up since he's on my tank, I'd like an override protocol to fix this, but it's more than enough for most of the post-game bosses. So long as I'm not massively outleveled.

I actually didn't know either would join the team until I got to those points in the game. Guess I didn't follow the pre-release stuff as closely as I thought I did. OK, so party members are no longer a spoiler but that blade still is.

I know, it's just something I'd like. I mean, I want the party (and blades) to carry over so they can really ramp up the difficulty. The back half of the game, once you finally have everyone and can party build as you like, is far more fun than the early portion where you're restricted to the tank/dps/healer set up the game forces on you.

They could just pump up the levels and leave it at that. Even that much would add a bit of a challenge. I just don't see much point to a NG+ without some kind of added challenge.

I'd love for the whole party to carry over, so you can play with your endgame team from the start. And also for all of the enemies to level up so as to provide a challenge.

Don't need tags for stuff that's been translated. And yea, there's definitely other ways of doing what he's doing. There was no logical reason for Ippo to lose that fight and yet here we are. If this didn't seem to be playing out in such an obvious manner I'd probably be more annoyed than I am though. Only Seo could troll a single fanbase twice with the same damn plot point.

He's fine. He's literally just fine. He has literally no issues. He's drawing backgrounds for his friend's manga at the level of a pro assistant while wearing the wrist weights he was training with before the last fight and has absolutely no fatigue or issues staying in the lines. This all just reminded me of when Sendo used those weights. He said there was a period where he had to adjust to his newfound speed and ability. That's literally all this was isn't it? Well, that and Ippo having no solid goal. All that shit and he's literally just fine. Every single person he knows is a massive idiot. Every single one of them.

Honestly, it's kind of the opposite. Ippo himself has been rather aimless for a few years now, he's had no solid goal for a minute. It's finally getting addressed, which should put him on a shot to the world title fight. I think it's more mental, him having no real goal, and they're just using the weights to explain away the physical symptoms we saw in the last fight. It seems like he's coming back pretty quick and they're finally confronting the fact he's had no solid goal since the Miyata fight got called off. This is all pretty long overdue.

To start with, I'm not talking about the translation from the usual place. There's another one that's moving a bit faster and is totally up to date. It's pretty clearly set up so he can come back and fight if that's what the author wants. The doc says he's fine and Yagi even points out that the symptoms he's shown could be from something completely different. The chapter even ends with him at the line in the dirt Takamura drew. Considering an ending hasn't been announced, it's not crazy to think he could come back. All the author would have to do is say he had another issue, fix it, and give him a reason to want to jump back in. A timeskip would be a way for him to close out Takamura's arc during the manga proper, since Ippo was moving so much faster than he was.

Look, I'm not even supposed to allow you all to mention to place by name let alone link to it. I'm only bending the rules because it's such big news for the community. It's just like everybody not being able to post pages that have watermarks on them, we can't be linking to sites that aid in copyright infringement. It's just like you not being able to link to sites that let you download illegal versions of games or movies, let alone mention them by name, under any circumstances. I'm already going out on a limb by letting you guys use the site name. If you want to quote the actual text then I'll let you but that's as far as I can let you go. No links. You can run it up the ladder to an admin but I guarantee they won't take the warning away and might even think I'm going too easy on you all with how I'm currently dealing with it. I'm already bending the rules here, so please keep that in mind. If you want to discuss this further please do so in a PM. If you want me to ban mention of the site's name altogether I will because, frankly, that's what I'm expected to do in the first place.

I will point out that just because someone creates something it doesn't mean that's who they are or what they support. Nabokonov wrote Lolita but he wasn't a sicko in real life as far as anyone knows. So we shouldn't really be taking someone's work as proof of their proclivities because they generally aren't indicative of anything except what they think will sell and/or what themes they want to explore as a creator. Dog Gutts is going hard right now, goddamn!

I feel like the turning point was when Haruhi got brought over. That seems like it was the point where the big boy publishers like Little-Brown got involved and started treating light novels less like a niche product and more like YA lit. And with how big YA lit is no one should be shocked that these light novels are doing well, given they're finally being marketed to an American audience correctly.

It's the Sousuke in Southern Asia arc right? Yea, that was kind of a plodding one that was just meant to get the other characters where Sousuke is plot development wise. It picks up near the end but it's the single arc equivalent of the GoT seasons where Dany is just chilling in Mereen. The story picks up a lot after that arc is done.

The issue is that the rest of the good guys need a bit of a timeskip to set some stuff up for the rest of the story, so Sousuke needed something to do in the meantime so it doesn't look weird that he's not off trying to save Chidori. On that note, Chidori is basically in stasis (figuratively) at the moment as well. There's just a timing issue that has to work itself out and it's not the sort of thing a small change in story flow could fix.

That pacing sounds pretty good I guess, the old series did about 6 and felt a bit slow. DVMC gets no love though. Even the manga went "oh yea, we forgot to adapt this, here's a flashback." At the rate they're going they'd just need one more season to finish it off, unless they want Fumoffu pt2.

Thread: Toonami |JulAug18| I am not upset.
Like I was explaining then, there's a difference between plot points and basic world building. The two can cross paths, sure, but you gotta give a hint that basic stuff exists. Like, it's the whole point of the prologue in Harry Potter, "Hey there's wizards in this book, but there's also evil wizards in this book. That stuff is normal, just so you're not shocked later on." So if your story is going to involve fighting a lot of super villains, it's probably a good idea to introduce the basic concept as early as you can. I'm not saying the specific guys, but just the idea. The hell is this even...

Shido works, but it only works post-Trump/Russian collusion and only on that level. That said, the back-half of P5 was a million times weaker than the front-half. Actually, the first palace was also badly paced what with the constant jumps in time and space. Persona 5 wasn't a game that needed the in medias res opening sequence, it was completely superfluous and gave away far too much far too soon. The stuff with the first palace acted as a good enough set-up and subversion of the status quo on it's own that it didn't need the extra help provided by the game's actual opening. And it's ending essentially comes out of nowhere and receives little to no actual set up throughout the game proper. Shido as the final boss makes sense as the game builds to that confrontation from the very start, but everything after comes out of left field story wise. It tied into nothing we were doing and didn't really do any work in terms of story telling. That you could lop off the very beginning and very end and wind up with a more cohesive narrative is kinda shitty. It's like they didn't trust us to recognize the opening as being fine or to be satisfied by a non-elder god final boss.

It kinda messes everything up though. How does that world not turn into chaos? Even a minor power could be used to fuck someone's shit up if you decided to get creative. It's like a mirror-world version of Detective Conan. In Conan murderers are a dime a dozen and they all use incredible tricks to commit their crimes, in MHA everyone has incredible powers that would easily let them commit murder and not get caught but no one does anything wrong ever. There's a lack of balance in the world for both of these series. Reverse that 80/20 split and I've got no problem. The schools that teach kids to use their powers would be spitting out both heroes and villains (the villains being drop-outs or delinquents or just dudes gone bad). It would just make more sense with the world we've seen so far because it's way too peaceful if everyone has a quirk.

I'm fine with waiting, but I'm not sure how it'll fix the balance of the world. Either shit is just like normal days over here or it's kinda fucked up and we haven't been told about it, or given an indication this is the case, for reasons. Like, if shit is constantly fucked up gimme a news report in the background or Deku's mom reading bad news in the paper or something to prime me for it. It's just a little annoying given how we spent two episodes rehashing a similar plot point for no good reason earlier in the season. It just seems like something we should have gotten to already, as in it's something that should be part of this world's status quo but we weren't clued into when that status quo was being set up. As a result it kinda leaves me feeling like I'm missing a chunk of how this world functions on a day to day level. Now I'm not saying I don't like the show, while I do have some complaints about it (this and the constant melodrama), it has been fun so far. I love this. You wanna talk about style, this is .

I don't think Deku is as justifiably ignorant of the world as he needs to be for that to work though. In Harry Potter it works because mind wipes and magical boundaries and in One Piece it works because the physical construction of the world seriously hampers the free flow of information. MHA is more like Naruto, only Deku isn't a dumbass like Naruto is. Like, Deku's not stupid enough to just handwave basic stuff about how the world works as "he's just dumb and doesn't pay attention." Deku comes off as the guy who know how stuff works, given his long obsession with, and endless observation of, the world of heroes. Like, the questions I still have are things he would have potentially been interested in given his proclivities.

Vivi could potentially know about one of the three weapons without realizing it. Or it might be like with Shirahoshi and she one of the weapons. Either way, they made it clear in this chapter that her lineage is incredibly important. Shit is about to go down, this arc is looking huge right now.

Thread: One Piece |OT3| Big Trouble in Little Wano
The two are basically intertwined to the point where there is very little difference when it comes to main characters. Character is plot and plot is character. All plots, One Piece especially, are driven by character wants and desires. Changes in those shape the plot. Luffy wants to sail the seas and find the One Piece, that's the thing driving the series forward. It ties into everything from the inciting incident to every action Luffy takes. As how he goes about accomplishing his goal changes, so will the shape of the overall plot of the series. It could, I'm just wondering where that final major event that sends us off towards the ending is going to show up simply because we've been getting a clearer and clearer view of the world and how it works. Hell, it could also be Luffy and co meeting Vegapunk.

Thread: One Piece |OT3| Big Trouble in Little Wano
So, I've been thinking a bit about where the overarching plot of One Piece currently is in regards to it's development and I think we're pretty close to the third major plot point in the series. Which puts us almost on the doorstep of the final act. It's like this, as best I can tell: Act 1Major Plot Point 1Act 2 (Part 1)Major Plot Point 2 (Midway Point)Act 2 (Part 2) I think the big question is as follows: is Reverie going to be the third major plot point in the series, and what exactly does this mean for Luffy's character? Going through the series Luffy generally isn't bothered by the Marines or the World Government stuff outside of a few moments. He's opposed them when they stood against his friends, but that's about it. In Act 1 Luffy straight up doesn't care about the WG stuff, sure he helps Vivi fight Crocodile but that's simply because she's his friend and they got caught up right in the middle of the whole thing the second they got to the Grand Line. It's not until the first major plot point that we see a change in Luffy and how he views the World Government. Until this point, his whole mantra is "The King of the Pirates is the freest person on the seas." As such he hasn't cared about them or the Marines at all, outside of Smoker trying to capture them, and it's not until this point that he's forced to confront them head on and face the truth of the world: that the WG is an oppressive force that needs to be fought. He declares war on them simply to get Robin back, but it's also the first time that he recognizes that it's not enough to simply go sailing around and having adventures, that he needs to take everything more seriously. Visually this culminates in the Gears, but I'd argue the declaration of war, the recognition of who his enemy is, is the important moment in the arc. The first half of Act 2 has Luffy and co recognizing that the WG needs to be fought against, but again they only do so in instances where their friends are endangered. The Celestial Dragon punch is the big example, as is the confrontations with Moria, Kuma, and the admiral. It also shows Luffy taking his journey far more seriously than he previous had. This is best shown by yelling at everyone to run away and his time on Amazon Lily and in Impel Down. The second major plot point is Ace's death (and the War of the Best as a whole). Here Luffy sees how small he is in comparison to the rest of the world and the full extent of what he's fighting against (remember that while he's declared war on the WG previously, he's generally had no idea as to the extent of their capabilities). It shows that if he's not careful he could lose more than just his brother. In the second part of Act 2 we see Luffy finally acknowledging that him and his crew aren't strong enough, that they have to improve if they want to survive what's coming next. So they all take time off to train. It's also at this point that Luffy and co start actively fighting the forces that control the world. We can see it clearly in Fishman Island, where they find out what's been going on and decide to do something. While Luffy (and Zorro) refuse to take on the mantle of "hero" they do take heroic action and not only save the island but take control of it away from Big Mom. While they're actions are still reactionary, they're not dragged into the situation. It's the same in Punk Hazard, where they've already decided to fight the Four Emperors and Law shows up with an offer of alliance to help. We also see Nami actively deciding to save the kids that were experimented on. While they continue reacting to the events around them, Luffy and co are on a clear path of their own making at this point. A path far clearer than the one they had in the first half of the Grand Line, with the tangible goal of defeating the Four Emperors. The road ponyglyphs just give them further incentive to carry out the goal they had in mind in the first place. All of this essentially leaves us with a final major story beat which will then send us on a crash course through Act 3 and to the conclusion. Normally what happens at this point is the character (Luffy in this case) is forced to decide if what he wants is really what he wants. Depending on how the third major plot point plays out we could well see a bit of (or a huge) a deviation from what we expect to happen and wind up on a whole new track. Because looking back over the series, it's been a pretty straight forward build up to Straw Hats vs the World Government. Do you think this is going to be the arc that finally sets that into motion?

Major Plot Points in a series are generally moments of change in characters, their dynamics, and how they view the world. Something like "A Christmas Carol" is a good example to use here, the arrival of each of the ghosts is basically a major plot point as each one either alters how Scrooge sees the world and himself or sets him on a definite course of action. Kaido's defeat would just be another step on the path Luffy and co are already on. Though it could qualify depending on how it plays out.

Again, kinda missing the explanation of major plot points. They're generally events that change how characters view and interact with the world around them. All of those are important plot points, but they're more like steps on a road than turns. Major plot points are like turns, they affect the series and it's characters. Beating Kaido would be big, yes, as would the other points listed, but they're not changing the way Luffy and the Straw Hats take action or view the world of One Piece.

There's plenty of college educated people with those kinds of jobs too. People filling out forms for no reason other than to fill out forms, filing those forms for no reason, we've got a lot of those kind of jobs. Those pointless jobs that nobody likes doing, that drain people's souls away bit by bit, jobs that are nothing more than death by a thousand paper cuts. Busy work meant to give people just enough money to sustain and put back into the economy to keep the capitalist machinery that powers our world going. As we get more and more efficient thanks to technology, we'll be seeing more and more of these jobs. I think we'd be better off finding a way to take people out of the workforce and give them the money they need to live and contribute to the economy through spending. Eventually it's something we're probably going to need to talk about, even if we aren't ready for it. Something like UBI would be a way to cull these mind grinding jobs. He'll it'd probably help with building back up those small rural towns too. They wouldn't need a big company there bringing in money from the outside to pass out in the form of wages if we had UBI. I think her issue is more people not being entirely sure if she can actually do the job. No one in NY wants to deal with a liberal version of Trump. If she can get to the primary and get in on a debate and impress her numbers will improve.

Because the lines change every ten years. Just because a neighborhood is in one district this time doesn't mean it won't be in another next time as the population shifts around. As a result you couldn't name them after a neighborhood and you can't name them after a town or city since most population centers are made up of more than a few districts. So, how would you come up with a name?

So they can make the hard, unpopular decisions that protect an oppressed minority. If they gotta worry about getting reupped then they're just going to rule what the majority wants them to rule. You can't have elected judges acting as a balance to an elected executive and legislature. They need to be insulated from the whims of the majority to a certain degree. We definitely gotta make that shit McConnell did illegal though, 100%.

That's why I kinda like what I saw from this one on that front. The people in the first purge were just like, "Yo, everything legal? We gonna have the biggest fucking party you ever seen!" The guys running it had to send in special ops dudes to fuck everything up and get it running right. It looks garbage, but it does seem to deal with one of the major issues I've had with the concept: the average person probably isn't a killer or a rapist.

We don't focus enough on history, real history, as a society when we are educating ourselves. We clean it, sanitize it, whitewash it to hell and back and so when it tries to repeat no one notices or believes it since they never learned the truth.

His head tends to sit higher and he's much larger than you'd think just by looking at him. It might take a bit for you to work out his ranges, but once you do it's just a matter of doing the damage. And look on the bright side, at least it's not Savage Jho.

That's generally how to do it. Sometimes you might need a pit trap if you've used a few shock ones already, but that's about it. Get the monster down to cap range, get them in a trap, use 2 tranq bombs on them. You always need to use a trap.

You can counteract that with a dragon resist charm or gem slots. That said it'd only be an issue against monsters that use the dragon element.

I don't think there's many dragon element monsters in the game right now. That'll change when Jho gets eat everyone and everything (including his own tail) in the spring. I'd definitely check before each fight what element the monster you're fighting is and what it's weak to. Using the right armor for a fight can give you a huge advantage.

You want fast weapons when using status if memory serves. The more hits you get in the faster it builds up. Something like dual blades can get an active status on there a few times a fight.

EDIT: Also, Paraguay seems to rate Kaku higher than Almiron. And the passing stat has more to do with how the teams play, RBNY plays almost exclusively in the opponent's attacking third and thrives exclusively on high pressure while ATL likes building up more.

Thread: Cristiano is a goat
The age for near-retirement Euro stars has passed in MLS. Everyone's looking to Central and South America for young talent to develop, as well as developing young American players. The Galaxy are trash with or without Zlatan (but often look better without him, though this is down to shit team comp) and Chicago (with Schweinsteiger) is a dumpster fire on their best days. Messi and Ronaldo would get paid if they came over, but the league isn't at a point where they'd steamroll anymore. It's stopped being an easy paycheck years ago, just ask Villa, Pirlo, or Lampard. Not saying it's a top league, but between the travel and the style some teams employ it's stopped being a "come here for an easy paycheck" situation a while ago.
