Yes, but I am unsure how the price they pay factors in to the quality of the food being cooked.

Even if the quality is equal, the company who has lower costs is likely to offer lower prices.

"Quality" isn't the right measurement to think of here. "Value" is. A 9/10 burger for $5 is a better value than a 10/10 burger for $10.

Yea, ok, I still don't understand what that has to do with my point. I agree with you, but my point was directed at people that bash chains and praise local spots just because they are chains and local spots.

in this whole debate how has no one mentioned that big chains, at least in heavily populated areas, are often staffed by people that are both severely overworked and underpaid, resulting in food that is usually hot fucking garbage?

If you think this ISN'T true of small places, you're insane.

Best I can tell, the Vietnamese place across the street from me gets most of its labor from the 8 year olds who live in the apartment above. Who I only assume are NOT getting minimum wage and health care benefits.

Big businesses almost always pay more to front-line employees than small businesses do. As a general rule, across all industries.

Also corporate businesses are pretty strict on the overtime so it's much more rare for them to be working more than 8 hours where a local spot may have 1 or 2 people that are working 14hr days 7 days a week because they are the owners and can't afford to high much help.

The funny thing is, generally chains and local places actually get the exact same ingredients. Most of the time fast food chains will have specific things that are sent to them from their corporate places such as their fries, meat and sauces and ordering the same things as everyone else that they aren't required to get from the corporate distribution centers. But sit down restaurant chains and local places generally buy all the same things.

Absolutely. They're buying the same things, but they aren't paying the same prices. Ever heard of a volume discount?

Yes, but I am unsure how the price they pay factors in to the quality of the food being cooked. My point was that chain restaurant vs. local establishment is likely skewed by bias because they get the exact same ingredients from the same supplier and the only real difference between the two is that the chain restaurant has a corporate chief that got their by being really fucking good at their job where as a local spot has a guy that may be really fucking good at his job and is just going to take time to build a reputation.

I'm not sure what this is in reference to. I haven't played Nioh but my understanding is it is a very similar game to the soulsborne games and every one of them came out before Nioh.

lmao no.

Soulsborne game combat consists of hit, roll, run up to enemy, and repeat.

Nioh actually has a real combat system.

Wow, so informative. What is a "real combat system?"

Also, chains on average are a lot cheaper than local places. And you can't just say "it's because they are lower quality" because chains are often usually cheaper than even the BAD local places, too.

Functionally every version of a character is considered unique and thus can't be intermerged. You could even S support Lucina and Bunny Lucina if you wanted

When combining characters, do they have to be the exact same copy of a character?

Yes. You will also want to merge them when they are at the same star level

Xuxon posted...

green is harder to decide. i've been leaning toward Titania but Camilla, Fae, Nino, Raven, Cherche, Cecilia are all possibilities. Camilla, Nino, Cecilia i already have 10 copies of but Titania, Raven or Fae would probably be more effective.

Fae has been really strong in the arena for me. She gets my endorsement even without steady breath

No I meant can you merge different versions of the same character, like I'm pretty sure I have a tuxedo marth and a different version of him and a friend has currently sent me a Ninian on a pegasus while the one I have walks

Sure! I didnt say he was out of character, I said he was out of line.

I think if hed sat down and talked to Tony and the team about Bucky, setting aside the accords for a minute, they couldve come up with a plan that didnt involve Cap potentially getting a ton of civilians killed during that chase scene. Tony didnt need that much convincing it was a frame job; hell, the stupid evil plot hinged entirely on him realizing Bucky was framed anyway, but thats besides the point.

Fair enough, and good point.

Youre both missing the point. Cap wasnt supposed to my omniscient, but he shouldve not gone full loose cannon with a walking weapon of mass destruction when he truly had no idea how Bucky worked. It was extremely reckless.

Hell, the PTSD alone. Bucky and Cap were half-fighting in his apartment too. What if Bucky just snapped, no Hydra manipulation involved? Cap had faith in his friend, I get that, but he let that supersede caution with a really dangerous subject.

But doesn't that just straight up fit naivety of caps character?

Nino was a pain in the ass to raise since she joined so late. I remember she had great growths but it wasn't worth the hassle.

A level 40 3 star will have two less in each state than a level 40 4 star with the same boon and bane.

The only real difference is that the 3 star has to be promoted with 2000 feathers but their full potential is equivalent at 5 star

What about level 1 4 star and 3 star comparisons?

You can check the wiki for the difference there. It is different for each character. But only level 40 matters

Ok, I was just curious because I was comparing level 1's and I think I can see the +/- for them but I was how accurate it would he when comparing different star levels.

But seriously here's a check list for you and your wife

-do you know how to build a fire
-do you know how to cook
-does rain bother you when your stuck with no electronics
-can you manage with no electronics
-do you know minor first aid
-do you know what to look for when setting up your tent/tarps

If you can answer yes to all of these camping will be a breeze, and even easier if you go in an RV/camper

As someone that grew up with self defence training, sticking up for my "mentally challenged" and other "vulnerable" students,moving on to activities that are less than legal, being jumped, picking fights because of my own stupidity, being a doorman/bartender, and in general being around/involved in enough fights to actually look back and see how embarrassing it is. I can say that there are absolutely times when the nuts are not off limits, other times attacking a mans testicles is simply an extremely pussy move.

Any fight that involves you defending yourself in overwhelming odds, kick them in the nuts.

Any fight that is the result of you being jumped, kick them in the nuts. Fuck that bitch!

Any fight that involves you defending someone else in a life or death situation, kick them in the nuts.

Any fight that you agree to 1 on 1, only start kicking in the nuts if their friends interject.(Shouldn't realistically be a problem if you have friends with you. If you don't, why are you fighting a group any way? Besides that would fall back to overwhelming odds.)

Obviously any sanctioned or agreed upon fight/match, DO NOT kick them in the nuts.

If you start a fight and kick the dude in the nuts, you're a punk bitch and I hope you get your comeuppance.

I forgot to mention before that if you promote a unit to a higher star level, you lose all the "+1" levels. That means you should only go for 4*+10 units if you are sure you never want to use them as a 5* unit. Never try and add "+1" leves to 3* or lower units. There's never any point to doing that.

Well double shit. I merged someone that I intend to upgrade and merged 2 Jagens >.<
