@Vordus @theoutrider For Honor is fab

In the crowd of po-faced 'We do medieval swords proper. Very historical. Swords are serious business.' games

For Honor is the Ninja backflipping a Roman Gladiator off the top of a burning Viking fortress

It 100% does not care, and it revels in it gloriously

Doing tasks that require waiting in-between stages for a few minutes at a time is the worst

Like, I routinely fail at "Take teabag out of tea" or "Just remember you put food in oven"

"Pre-heat oven for 5m, then go back and actually put the food in, then go collect food and turn off oven" is basically wizardry to me

She can see through all of time and change fate at whim, and she activated her own Planeswalker Spark (read: X-Men 'power awakening in crisis' dealio) simply because: She sees it happens in her future, and goes "That looks rad as heck, why wait"

On top of that:
Goth-as-hell little girl
Esper colours (Blue/Black/White)
Blink, deck manipulation & ridiculous boardstate-changing shenanigans
Moths, lots of moths
A Commander
Precon deck is called 'Subjective Reality'

I love her on every level

Presumably she doesn't interfere with the rest of the cast's interdimensional biff-ups cuz
A) she can control time and fate, so who cares
and
B) She's 8yrs old. She has a *million* better things to do than hang out with Jace & Pals

@Moot@snouts.online two along the sides, or just one running along the bottom?

..Four diagonal tank treads

your snake is unflippable and unstoppable

I think I'm getting the hang of the Fencer's boost-cancelling momentum stuff in EDF5

Being able to combine the tanky "static artillery" and the fast-moving kiter/reviver roles is odd but cool

Also flying around massive enemies going "Hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi okbye" with hit n run shenanigans

It feels different to the Wing Diver in the kinda "Spiderman to (someone who flies like Superman but not at ridiculous speeds, idk)" comparison in how they approach flight

Sudden bursts of huge momentum in new directions vs having fine-control over your flight

I was thinking about limited information Go variants in the shower. There are a few around, but I've not yet come across the exact sort of thing I'm thinking of (with enemy stones blocking visibility).

I'm tempted to play around with the idea now.

If I could whack together a quick-n-dirty Go engine to tweak in something like Unity/Godot, I'd do that, but I cannot.

(The idea of doing it in Twine amuses me, and is quite feasible, however. Or a Discord bot, which is an idea I've played around with in the past.)

This Is How You Lose The Time War is a lot of fun.

I'm only a short way through it, but it avoids the usual time travel tropes in favour of a back-and-forth rivalry between two agents of opposing time-travel-capable factions, which starts off as taunting/professional-recognition kinda vibe, and plunges into nemesis-rivalry-flirting with wanton abandon via meticulously planned pranking-come-sabotage of each other's missions.

@colon_three basically how I envision Brexit turning out

Oh wow EDF5's difficulty is completely different in MP lobby vs SP campaign

I'd been told enemy health scaled with # of players, but I'm not sure that's true so much as MP vs SP.

But yeah, I'd been trying to tackle Hard missions solo in an MP lobby, assuming it just stacks difficulty according to difficulty level + player count. Then got disillusioned and went down to Normal, and still got nommed..

Now playing the same levels on SP-Hard and it's wow, kinda a cakewalk by comparison
