I like the pseudo-blogfaqs ones

Do you have enough money?
Do you hate your job?
Would more money solve your problems in life?
What are some good paying jobs that don't require a college degree?
etc.

This topic is kind of interesting to me though, hard to imagine not having a smartphone in a society that has quite literally revolved around them for more than a decade.

Yeah, I got a smartphone 5-ish years ago (had a flip phone before then) and I thought I was the last one.

I have a Pixel 3 and really like it.

I use around 500 MB a month, but I'm pretty careful about not downloading or browsing image-heavy stuff unless I'm on wifi.

Like...Medic alone is a bad release even though he does nice things, but Medic + Heavy is a lot more interesting than the sum of its parts if that makes any sense? A full team is prolly too much tho.

You think so? I feel like Medic is a pretty versatile standalone guy. (Invulnerable Sonic and Vivi! Ike and MMX with auto-crits!) His downside is low durability and inability to heal himself, but that just means he needs a tank, not necessarily a TF2 tank.

edit: Unless you mean "a dedicated healer is not worth a whole roster spot" which may be right. He'd make a great assist merc though!!

You know how Zidane and friends beat Necron who is an abstract concept of death in an allegorical battle in FF9?

That was allegorical? I guess I need to brush up on my Necron lore.

In general, I don't put much stock in cameo bosses. Like Gilgamesh is an 8-man raid in FFXIV, but I would not take that as evidence that the FFXIV universe has a lower power level than the FFV universe.

Also I <3 ALEK solid 7/week.

Based on this discussion I am leaning Demi-Fiend should be banned, not because he's too powerful, but because he's too vague.

A: My merc is so powerful, look at his durability and strength *posts cutscene*
B: My merc is so powerful, look at his sweet sword moves and speed *posts gameplay footage*
C: Yeah well, my merc defeated the Abrahamic God

It doesn't really give you a meaningful point of comparison? Like, you could argue B > A because B is too fast for A to land a solid blow, or something. But C is just kinda out there. You will have some people coming in to vote ABRAHAMIC GOD RESPEK and others saying "cutscene showings tho?" and getting no response and leaving without voting.

join us in shiny hunting Nanis

I was super bored before the Gen 3 release, but I haven't been bored with the glacial Gen 4 pace because so many shinies to get

ALSO you already have the best shiny (Shinx) so you should live it up

Some general thoughts on Sonic: IMO Sonic is tough to place (in terms of respect) because he's inherently swingy, much more so than most characters. He's got what I'll call "weapon triangle" issues and also terrain issues.

Weapon issues:
- Sonic is amazing against gunners. I would take Sonic over a literal army of GTA dudes with guns; they'll never hit him.
- Sonic is okay against blunt melee (e.g. SF Ryu). Because of his raw speed he hits a lot harder than most opponents. But he's also less durable than most opponents without rings (which he basically never gets in Mercs).
- Sonic is terrible against edged weapon melee such as swords. You just hold out your sword and Sonic is either going to impale himself on it, or dodge (at which point you just turn to face him with your sword again). That's how it is when your signature attack is hurling your whole body into the enemy. Like, I would probably take Lloyd > Sonic 1v1, even though the army of GTA gunners >> Lloyd.

So he's really situational. Against the right enemies he performs like a legit 6. Against his counters (which are many) he struggles to break 3.

Then there's terrain: Sonic wants space to make his speed matter. A big field, a big bridge. He really doesn't want small spaces where he has to make a lot of turns and he's susceptible to being nailed by AoE. He also really doesn't want arenas susceptible to ring-out (Bubbly Clouds).

So it's just weird to price a guy who can solo certain teams of 3-4/days but is close to dead weight in the wrong situation. I don't know if you can fix it without fundamentally changing his combat. I get that's the point of loading him with niche powers/items from different games, but then he feels less like Sonic and more like an awkward Mercs construct.

Been drawing a lot lately. I got a new small sketchbook with the idea that it would make me more mindful of framing/composition. Not sure how well that part is working out, but I like the size in general.
