i took this survey art survey. i can't believe Lloyd and Bridal Charlotte were done by the same artist.

actually now that i look closer, i can see some similarities but damn

a bit

wait

the reserve barracks thing if i'm understanding it correctly is INSANE for me because of how i organize them. i just dust everything i'm not actively intending to promote/add skills to so if i can just keep them around without turning them into manuals but also not in my regular barracks then that's amazing

save for a bit

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

i don't even have a +10 for common units. Lucius is at +9 and i haven't pulled the last copy. i can't imagine how far away i'm from a +10 5* ex

it has actually been a year since i started playing

still no +10 yet =/

my mini-review is that it's been a good time for the most part. i love collection shit and FE is really the perfect franchise to do this with. i've dabbled with other mobile gacha games and the actual gameplay part is way more engaging than the others i've tried. will also say that the FEH has actually made me want to play the mainline games again. ended up (re)playing 6-10 because of it. too bad nintendo are BUTTheads and offer no way to officially play them outside of RIDICULOUS means.

i still don't know exactly how Mjolnir's Shield, Frontline Phlanx, Grand Conquest, Allegiance Battles work. i mostly just randomly tap around since there hasn't been an incentive for me to read the rules or whatever lel.

things i don't like:
powercreep - i don't even play AR/Arena seriously since the main appeal for me is collecting characters but even i can feel it since i can't just brute force some of the newer maps on lunatic. like i literally don't want a challenge or whatever just give me my fucking orbss. save skills were a mistake.

long-ass skill descriptions - i ain't reading all that

FEH OCs - for the most part zzzz

orb prices - still ridiculous. i honestly feel like if they were lower i would have bought more because it would have been easier to justify the purchase in my mind. maybe it's a good thing for me.

skill distribution - as a casual who wants to do as little thinking as possible, every time i look up a guide on a recommended set it's like oh yeah get skills xyz (for 80% of them anyway). oh yeah and they're all locked to these 5-star exclusives. gee thanks. of course i get WHY it's like that but annoying as fuck especially when some of the stuff you pull is literally useful to nobody.

chain challenges - yeah i'll do all that. what do i get? oh 300 feathers. cool.

hero catalog - when i look at the summon animation, it doesn't include the dun-dun-dun-dun-dun of the stars.

autobattle AI - why the fuck is my healer always moving first into melee range of the enemy

belated happy birthday yankees

tbh i probably wouldn't be too interested in anything from the four i listed for this topic aside from a handful.

looking at results, some surprises but mostly as expected i guess

i guess it's possible after all

"didn't even realize" sounds pretty close to my Nolan experience

survey because i've been making assumptions. how many films from each director have you already seen? these are the directors i would assume people are more or less familiar with but who knows! there are some directors that i didn't bother including though because they have so many films and didn't want to type that out.

Christopher Nolan (11): Following, Memento, Insomnia, Batman Trilogy, Prestige, Inception, Interstellar, Dunkirk, Tenet

Quentin Tarantino (9): Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill, Death Proof, Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, Hateful Eight, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

David Fincher (11): Alien 3, Se7en, The Game, Fight Club, Panic Room, Zodiac, Benjamin Button, Social Network, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Gone Girl, Mank

Wes Anderson (9): Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Darjeeling Limited, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Moonrise Kingdom, Grand Budapest Hotel, Isle of Dogs

great writeup!

At the end Dragline is talking about getting Koko out to make the 'terrible trio' again and I'm like, who the fuck was Koko?

lmao i remember thinking the same thing at the time but i completely forgot about it after the movie ended. i only even caught on to some of the nicknames for the other prisoners because i was watching with subtitles. and i don't even remember any of them now.

Seginustemple posted...

To borrow a phrase from RedLetterMedia, I suspect they threw in that car-wash scene and two girls on Luke's arm to establish a clear case of the notgays.

i choose to believe this. i mean i would imagine the target demographic to be largely men and we can't have them thinking even gay-adjacent thoughts.

so that's actually our first rotation of recommendations. whoaaa

we covered some directors i would have eventually liked to get to with my recs: Bong Joon-ho, Sofia Coppola, Kon and Yorgos. pretty pretty good.

i wonder if we'll ever get to some of the really big names that people are already familiar with. since people tend to vote for things they haven't seen. not that i mind.

yea legit copies of FE9 are like $200 so if you didn't play it back then fuck you i guess

ah

if Sacred Deer won back then it would have been two in a row. i suppose it was just a matter of time.

Olivia Cooke has two too.

yeah i think Dogtooth is the least accessible out of the ones i've seen. it was also my introduction to him and i'd definitely want to revisit it at some point

Camden posted...

I've seen parts of Sacred Deer. Sister wanted to watch it Christmas last year and I was in the room but not paying a whole lot of attention to the movie. Not my kind of movie so I think I was playing something on the 3DS and just sitting in the room for conversation purposes.

this was for like the entire duration of the movie? i'm wondering how parts of it come off to someone who's not paying much attention since there are some hilarious moments.

yeah i said that i felt like we would get a film from him sooner or later because his stuff is so unique and that's usually a draw for group discussions

we previously had The Killing of a Sacred Deer by him up for noms

question: have you seen The Lobster before?

have you seen this director's other works before?

i felt like we would get a Yorgos film sooner or latee

next movie is The Lobster (2015) directed by Yorgos Lanthimos

@lucifiere heads up, there is a chance recommendations get to you in the event there is no response from the other two

If it were more self-aware

i think it's very self-aware. but yeah it was mostly cuz of the campiness i thought you would like it a little more. i thought it had that musical energy.

yeah

someone

also i can't believe that nobody has uploaded the punch clip so i can watch it over and over again

damn really? i thought you'd like Love Witch

in case there is no response, @Aecioo you are next in line for recommending but you do not currently meet the watchrate requirement. are you still interested?

@ChichiriMuyo it is your turn to recommend this week but you do not currently meet the watchrate requirement. are you still interested? please respond by: Thursday, April 8th, 8:00 P.M. EST/5:00 P.M. PST
