2023.05.31 23:56 aust1nSTFU Stuck in Lucrehulk core
| I went back to Lucrehulk after the final Dagan Gera fight to collect missed items and now I can't leave. Some people were able to fix it by killing themselves to get back to a past save but I can't because my last save is also in the Lucrehulk. Navigation assist keeps taking me back to an area that is only one way and I can't get back through that area. I also can't use the escape pods like I did in the mission and I can't use fast travel for some reason either. Luckily I've already beat the game and am replaying a higher difficulty on NG+ but this seems to have forced me to give up on this playthrough entirely. I don't want to start another so I was hoping someone would have a solution. (ss isn't mine but is in the exact same spot as me.) submitted by aust1nSTFU to StarWarsJediSurvivor [link] [comments] |
2023.05.31 23:56 Throwawayforsonspain Dad, i have somethings i need to say
This will be me ranting to my father who has passed away early this year. Please feel free to ignore it or comment anything you want, i just cant live with these questions in my head anymore and i need to get them out somewhere.
Hey dad before i get to what i need to say heres this just why. You were an absolute bastard and i hated you for so long. Id finally started getting therapy for all the shit i was left with from you and before we can reconnect you die? Why did you abandon my mom and me, why did everyone, your parents included, have to force you to even see me. Why did you come into my life now? Why did you ever come into my life at all?
What was so much better than your child that you could just leave us? Hell i can look past the abusive alcoholism and the drug usage no ones a fuckin saint and your childhood was rough no argument there. But fuck why did you take your shit out on me when you would see me? I was your first child and you hated me, all i ever wanted was your approval.
Fuck i went to the military to try to make you proud, i even started going back to school after i got out and not a single fuckin atta boy or congratulations. You never went to of my childhood sporting events and to none of my military promotions and you weren't around when i got engaged to a wonderful woman like i asked you to be there.
Hell now im trying to have my first kid with in a year and i was hoping you would be around to maybe see them be born but fuck you just had to go. Why couldn't you just have stayed away like you always preferred to do, the little glimmer of hope you gave me when you started talking to me again was great, there was a chance, at least i thought that but you knew there wasn't didn't you? Is this some fucking cruel final joke? One last fuck you?
Why was it so hard to ever just give me a fuckin atta doy or to say you were proud of me? Why did you have to fuck me up then leave to comeback and go away permanently? You are a bastard and i wanted to tell you how fucked yup you make me, and how much i loved you still. But God do i still hate you and i wish you were still around to i could forgive you.

2023.05.31 23:55 throwaway8283726 How come the Assassins almost switch roles between Black Flag and Rogue?
These are the only games in the series I’ve played over and over, so I might be missing information that the other games provide.
In Black Flag, the Templars are hell bent on controlling the precursor sites because it will let them pretty much spy on humanity and create an orderly society under their control. Whereas the Assassins want to stop this to keep the world free, hence why they’re also anti-slavery.
But in Rogue, the Assassins are hell bent on controlling the precursor sites (I can’t remember the exact reason why) and they don’t care who dies getting in the way, like even cities being destroyed. There’s even side missions to kill Assassin slave traders, which makes to very confusing to see Adewale still being an Assassin. That’s not very pro-freedom of them.
This then forces Shay to leave, but instead of devoting his life to stopping anyone from having that kind of power, he just jumps in with the Templars, because they happened to save him from drowning one time?
If anyone could clear this up I’d appreciate it.

2023.05.31 23:55 Sharp-Effective-2519 Does this make sense to anyone? My rebuttal of the trinity and divinity of Jesus.
Firstly I wanted to thank this sub. You guys have been very kind and understanding- some of you have even DMed me. You are all very kind. Even answering my posts have been nothing short of positive. So thank you. And also thank you for taking the time to read this. Proverbs 19:20-21 say to seek Godly counsel so that’s what I believe I am doing.
For example when the great commission is given (Matthew Chapter 28:18) All authority has been given unto me. Why does God need authority given to him? John 14:28 “The father is greater then I”. Once again if he was God he wouldn’t of declared this. No one can be greater then God. Jesus even previously in John says this isn’t his doctrine but the one who sends him (John 7:16). Notice how he very much says it isnt his? Then who is it’s? Can’t be his if he’s God.
Jesus also in John 5:30 clearly says everything he does (miraculous healings, miracles etc etc) is due to the Will of the father who hath sent him. Jesus is very clearly tempt as a man would be. Are we declaring God himself can be tempted by finite mortal things? John 17:3 clearly teaches only God the father is God. Are we calling me Jesus a liar? Paul also concludes that Jesus isn’t God when he says there is one God and that’s the father.
What’s really another driving factor But of that day and/or hour “no one knows, not even the angels of/in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone” this is recorded in both Matthew and Marks Gospels. If orthodox theology is to be understood correctly then God has to know everything but clearly Jesus is saying here he doesn’t know everything. Therefore how could he of been God?
Jesus openly declares he is a Son Of God but also declares many of us will also have chances to become sons of God. John 1:14 when it says “begotten” commonly used to defend the trinity just means to create. John 1:18 “No man hath seen God”. Guess Christ is a liar again! John 10:30 “I and the father are one” but read unto verse 38- “that you may know and continue knowing that the Father is in union with me and I am in union with the Father” union meaning common mission and goal.
1st John 5:7 is a known and very clear fabrication. If the doctrine of the trinity is so wild defended in scripture why did early Christian’s feel the need to forge it into the text? Sorry if this comes off defensive or rude. Not my intention. Thank you all for reading this.

2023.05.31 23:54 tigertwilight I'm (24F) concerned about my boyfriend (31m) and this one ex coworker(26F)
Sorry if this doesn't make sense,for any Grammer mistakes etc.
My bf and started dating last year towards the end of it, we had about a year crushing on each other but neither of us ever made a mover.I noticed he would stare but never really talked to me.I knew he was shy but i saw him talk to other girls with no problem.So we start dating and i notice he is very close to one of his female coworkers(as far as for him goes) and i had already previously suspected he liked her.So i decide to ask him if he does he says no and next day decided to make us official.I saw he would still hang out with this girl during lunch always a party of three or more never alone.I would ask him so who did you have lunch with ? and he never outright would mentioned her.We would go on dates and somehow she would come up idk if because he did like her or because she was one of the few people he would hang out with outside or work since he has said he isn't very social person.It bugged me he would go with her and another coworker and i have asked him if he wasn't ineterest in her why go,why third wheel with her and a guy who is very obviously trying to get with her and if you also don't really talk, he always says the same thing "to not be alone".It got the point i told him if you follow her to that new job I will break up with you.(our job was getting shut down and everyone pretty much wanted to continue working in the same field and one of the places was the one she was applying for) he did say he was hoping i would also apply there so we could keep working together and that he only showed interest in that place for me.After that he did stopped bringing her up and said that no worries he wont even apply there, he told me he wouldn't hang out with them again if she was around but I knew when they did large gatherings she was there and also one time when it was a smaller group she was there too.He admitted this to me after i confronted him about his social media(another issue), he didn't know i had been able to see his sm and when i simply asked him is this your profile he quickly went to delete her from his sm when i hadn't brought her up.I fought with him again once i saw who he went to delete,as if he got caught doing something wrong when that wasn't going to be my original point, so i fought with him that he had told me he wouldn't be going if she was around and who knows how many times he lied to me about her not being there and he again promised he wouldnt talk to her and once again told me he never liked her.As far as I know he did keep his promise after that.He would tell me by the time he showed up to hang out with the guys it was too late to turn around and ditch them.Now that time has passed i saw a text message of one of his ex-coworkers in which a picture of her was sent, she wasn't the only person in the frame but was the only one we know in it.(this wasn't a direct message only to him but group chat)He doesn't bring her up unless I ask him something about her and its no longer in the neutral light he would talk about her now its in a negative way idk if he thinks this will make me feel better or what ? Also doesn't help that I know she would mess with married guys or taken people on purpose.

2023.05.31 23:54 Narrow_Coyote8899 Do you think it’s appropriate to wear a headdress as a costume if you’re Indigenous?
| I am a big fan of drag race and on the most recent season one of the queens came out in a Mexican indigenous costume. This is an all stars season so this queen has been on a previous season and I have been following them for years, I’m all these years I have never seen them mention anything about being indigenous. Cut to the new season and they come out in this outfit. Personally, I thought it was a bit inappropriate as I have been told my multiple elders that only those who are recognized for their bravery and honour should wear a headdress. If anyone (even indigenous people) can throw on a headdress as a costume then the meaning and significance are lost. I am not Mexican Indigenous so I’m not 100% sure on their protocols surrounding mheaddresses but I would assume it’s similar? I just personally found this a bit weird especially because she has never brought up being Indigenous before. I feel like it’s a bit disrespectful to the culture and its traditions but again, maybe the protocols are different. I posted a comment saying I was unsure if it was appropriate and got downvoted to hell by a bunch of white people so, I’m wondering what Indigenous people think about this? I’m not looking to argue, this was my initial thoughts on it and I am wondering if I’m correct in thinking it’s a bit disrespectful. I am open to other opinions and not looking to defend my points, I just want some indigenous opinions. I also don’t want to promote hate towards this queen, I don’t think they had bad intentions but ultimately, I did feel that this was possibly a little disrespectful. submitted by Narrow_Coyote8899 to IndianCountry [link] [comments] |
2023.05.31 23:54 lonelylittlestars Is it normal to wish you were born a man?
This is probably one of the dumbest questions on here, and I want to put a disclaimer that this is likely a product of normal teenage insecurity and questioning!!
Now to get to the root of the issue; is it normal to wish you were born a man if you are afab??
Whenever I think about myself in like another universe or like a fantasy setting (which is quite often, I’m kind of a day dreamer) I usually have a scenario where I’m just like suddenly a man or I can like shape-shift into one and I’m just so much happier??
For some unexplainable reason I feel like being a man would make me more attractive, confident— I’d finally be able to sing songs in the way I want them to sound (I’m a song-writer and I’ve always wished to have a males voice), or build muscle and be able to protect myself (and be hot) In that way. Honestly, the thought of even being completely androgynous gives a similar feeling, like I just genuinely think I’d be happier.
It’s embarrassing to admit but I’ve always wanted shorter more masculine hair, and I’ve definitely tried to make myself look more masculine with makeup before.
However, I don’t experience extreme gender dysphoria (and in some instances I am glad to be a woman and I appreciate all the parts) but there are definitely other times where I wish I was just biologically a man, with a man’s body and name and all that. Furthermore I do like being publicly perceived as an attractive woman, and I like dresses, skirts, fishnets, etc. I also love wearing more masculine clothing like suits and sports jackets too though?!
Even if I did come to the realization that I am transgender (AFAB Male or non-binary or a Demi-girl or what not) I’m not sure if I could ever transition because I am 5’1 with a feminine figure, and while my facial features are kind of like my dads, I genuinely don’t think it’s possible for me to look masculine or androgynous in the slightest. Furthermore, I have a boyfriend who I actually really like (we just started dating) who is straight and my family is pretty transphobic, so I’m wondering if even digging into this can of worms is a good idea because it could have catastrophic events on my life.
TL;DR: afab is wondering if it's normal to wish they were born a man. They often imagine scenarios where they are a man and feel happier, more confident, and able to express themselves better. They also have some desire for a more masculine appearance/voice. While they don't experience extreme gender dysphoria, they sometimes wish they were biologically male. They enjoy being perceived as an attractive woman but also like wearing masculine clothing. They are unsure about transitioning due to their physical appearance, their straight boyfriend, and their transphobic family, which could have significant consequences on their life.

2023.05.31 23:53 Kaiser-281 How can my parrot get along with my dog?
Greetings people of Reddit!
So, this is the story. About a month ago, I rescued a little puppy that was abandoned in a box outside my home. He was very injured and after taking him to the vet and taking care of him, I eventually become attached to him. He is such a playful puppy and is always running all over my backyard.
On the other hand, there's the queen of the house, the flightless "pretty one" (her name is Lima, but she is always called The Pretty One "La Guapa"). She is a Pionus parrot, very lovely and attached to me, wherever I go, she goes. All the trees on the backyard are her absolute property and always spend time there. But there's a problem. She has a very severe case of neophobia, she even mistrusts new food and whenever she feels scared she starts to hyperventilate. BTW, She is also rescued, she landed injured on my backyard 2 years ago and ever since she's been with me.
I accepted this puppy also because I want him to become her guardian since feral cats in my neighborhood are always looking at my parrot, but whenever the little puppy gets near my parrot, she becomes stressed and starts to hyperventilate. I don't want to cause her a stroke out of fear or anxiety, so here's my question:
To those of you who own parrots and dogs, how do you make them get along without putting the parrot to too much stress? What did you do to avoid the dog ever attempting to bite your parrot?
Thank you so much for your advice. Have a nice day!

2023.05.31 23:53 prinkloverboo I exposed my abuser in his circle, am I in the wrong?
Hi, so basically three years ago, I was sexually assaulted by a rich capitalist. He never directly apologized to me, he just wrote some half ss apology to this girl who stood up for me. I took the sceeenshots of the “apology” the screenshots of us communicating as well and made a whole twitter thread of how he abused me. I felt violated, humiliated helpless and extremely angry. My abuser helps the rich and richer and make the poor get poorer. This rich girl hated my guts for some reason and basically wanted to “sue” me (she wanted my money) so she dates rich guys whom she refers to as “assets” and sets girls up with her “assets” so her boyfriend can steal financial resources from their families and give it to the rich girl. What my abuser does is he preys on working class immigrant girls stalks where their dad works, buys out companies, lays off employees and basically gets their dad to lose their job steals their salary to give it to the rich and coerces poor girls to have sx with him. He sexually harasses them and sometimes even assaults them (like he did to me) this made me feel anger and rage because of how unjust it is, how unfair it is and how no one knows about the oppressive disgusting techniques this man uses to oppress working class immigrant families. I had a raging episode and followed people he was associated with on instagram and started exposed him for what he is… I said he’s a pdo, rpist, abuser, classist and racist. I said many more things about him and made “alarming allegations against him” apparently, I just continued to talk about him. Until i started getting responses, one girl that said she was just an acquaintance with him told me she doesn’t know him that well and that she read the tweets and was like “wtf” and blocked him on everything after she found out. The next day, one of my abusers friends reached out to on Linkedin and Twitter me saying that he’s concerned for his friend (my abuser) telling me that I’ve been actively reaching out to people in his circles etc. I’ll share the convo.
Friend: Hello P- recently spoke to a friend of mine who told me about some alarming allegations that were made against him. I'm messaging here independent of T*** and solely as a concerned friend of his. I'm sorry to hear that you felt the way you did. After T*** was shaken up and told me about the situation and after reading the tweets that i believe you published i confronted T***. I'm reaching out because he mentioned that you were still messaging people around him about what happened and I just wanted to know what you're seeking to accomplish here. I'm honestly so sorry that you felt the way you did and I just am concerned about my friend and looking to seek a resolution to this. J Also sent this on Linkedin earlier
Me: Hey, how did you find me?
Friend: When i confronted him about it - he told me your name
Me: and why did you message me? Are you a friend of his? What did they say about me?
Friend: lam a friend of his and he reached out to me for advice. I'm coming here only with good intentions - not trying to stir the pot or anything
Friend: He mentioned a burner Twitter account that makes some accusations about him and has some screenshots of convos between you. Also just want to be very clear
Friend: - l'm not here to dispute facts or anything Just concerned for my friend and wanted to reach out to have a conversation - that's all
Me: Okay well yeah l've been trying to get those tweets down but been having a hard time getting them down
Friend: And thats much appreciated - I know that was a big concern of his. He mentioned that you were like actively reaching out to people in his circle and that shook him up a bit
Friend: And i just wanted to see what your intention here was
Friend: [just don't want things to escalate any further - for everyone's well being and stepping in to see if there's just anything that I can either help with or do to make this all end
Friend: I'm happy to convey any message you want to send him or anything like that
Though this guy does seem friendly, I don’t trust him because i don’t know him or what he’s capable of. His bio also mentions that he’s in law… so i didn’t get that best vibes from him, so am i the asshole?

2023.05.31 23:52 ms_hollywood_ AITA - Put exposed dog poop on neighbors porch.
I do these things and immediately feel bad (also scared for retaliation), I'm considering going over and apologizing but also making it clear he needs to pick up his dogs poop. I'm just not sure it's safe for me to do that. Theres no telling how the conversation would go. I used to joke that I thought he was a drug dealer b/c of what he wears and the short trips he takes. He usually minds his own business otherwise.
Anyhow, this guy has a bunch of small dogs he just lets them run out of the house, they will dart across the street to our house. Probably have the zoomies. But they are unleashed. Ppl out here in TX seem to be very loose with their animals, coming from a state with strict leash laws.
I've never seen them poop in our yard but our neighborhood is full of dogs and the are constantly in our yards using the bathroom, especially ours. We own our home but on a corner unit and i think ppl assume its community property. Its not. Even if it was our home is RIGHT there. We walk through the grass often.
Anyway, i see him come out today, one of his dogs darts across to our yard close to our front door and I dont see him run back. So im like ahit, hes taking a dump isnt he. I watched the owner come across the street, watch him poop and then leaves in his car w the dog.
I was livid. So I went outside, with some trash bags, picked it up, it was soft stool (Fun!) And put it on his doormat, exposed. I meant to just leave the poop but it was stuck to the bag.
He came back fairly quickly, within 15min and he just tossed the bag to the side and walked into his house.
I think I'd feel less worried if I had just bagged it. But i wanted him to do at least half the work and deal with it, I picked it up and provided a bag.
I know what he did was wrong & disrespectbut I'm also putting myself in a position. It's pretty obvious who did it.
I could've gone out and told him to pick it up while it was happening but I'm a small female in a state where ppl brandish their gun over silly things.

2023.05.31 23:52 sleeping0dragon Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society Review
| https://preview.redd.it/n3r5stu82a3b1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=a9ff4d34bea9fe0aca10e55f0ab1317e4e80b78c KEY NOTES - First Person Dungeon Crawler
- Enemies Appear on the Map, No Random Battles
- ENG/JP Voiced Audio
- Battle Party consists of generics only
- Lengthy game 90+ hours to beat
- New Game+ available
INTRODUCTION In 2016, Nippon Ichi Software (NIS) released the DRPG, Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk. Despite what I believe is NIS' first attempt at a DRPG, the game was quite solid and enjoyable with an unusual heavy story focus for a DRPG. The game didn't sell many copies at first, but has since sold a decent amount. 4 years later, a sequel titled Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society was released (an additional 3 more years for a western release). STORY Galleria's story begins with a young girl named Eureka who had just arrived at Galleria Manor. Despite being part of nobility, her family's financial situation was dire so she sought employment at Galleria Manor. The employer was an old woman named Madame Marta who was looking for someone great at "searching" for things. Marta is a witch tasked by Galleria Manor's owner to search for special treasures in a labyrinth below the manor. The problem is that not just anybody can explore the labyrinth. Any live human will die trying to return from it. To remedy that issue, Marta summoned a Wandering Spirit using Eureka as a medium. The Wandering Spirit is able to control puppets to explore and combat the monsters in the labyrinth. Despite what Eureka had initially assumed, she now found herself helping out with the treasure search in the mysterious vast labyrinth. https://preview.redd.it/tw901u5d2a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=6c5419f6727e619a7fc0372f4996dafee8a52fbb Galleria's story is unusually presented since despite spending the vast majority of game time within the labyrinth and dungeons, most of the story actually occurs in the outside world. Reaching specific checkpoints in the dungeons will trigger a new cutscene in the outside world and advance the story. You have to leave the dungeon to view the cutscenes. The cutscenes are not always directly related to the triggering checkpoints however. This creates a certain disconnect with the story and what goes on within the dungeons. This is actually something that's seen in Refrain as well although that game had notable story content in the dungeons too. Early on, the story appears to be directionless, but all of the random story bits will converge together into intense moments as more of the mystery gets revealed. It does however start off slow since the first major story event doesn't happened until about 30 hours into the game when it goes from 0 to 100 in a span of minutes. Galleria has a number of exciting moments, but there's also a lot of mundane moments in between. It may be difficult to keep the same level of interest throughout, but it's worth pushing through for the interesting plot twists and revelations. One aspect of Refrain's story that left a strong impression on people were the many surprising dark and disturbing moments it had. Galleria has many dark moments as well, but there aren't many that I would call disturbing. Uneasy at times, but overall, a lot more tolerable and easier to sit through in compared to Refrain. Of course, there are still humorous and comedic moments throughout to lighten the mood. https://preview.redd.it/t3zrqn2i2a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=c1083d5455d5d6af5c23e2de5946d34cba82e078 In comparison to the two Labyrinth games, I think Refrain had the more memorable and stronger story of the two. Especially when it came to the dungeon stories which made the overall story package more interesting. With that said, Galleria's story was still an enjoyable experience for me and some of its narrative is quite ambitious. It's worth noting that Galleria takes place in the same universe as not only Refrain, but also the two "The Witch and the Hundred Knight" games. Fortunately, you don't need any prior knowledge of those games to understand Galleria. CHARACTERS Galleria has a large assortment of characters. The main core group of characters are well developed and interesting. They are also likable too for the most part which contrasts with Refrain where there's less likable characters. One issue with Galleria is that there are many side characters that don't contribute much to the plot and are just there. Then there's some more story relevant characters who don't get enough screentime to properly develop those characters. As for Eureka, she is a lovable and kind person who despite being raised in nobility, enjoys doing household chores. She can be a bit of an airhead at times though. https://preview.redd.it/0zmlg8sl2a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=7d33e5b78786f48b8dbcf8a2fe12ea90ecd89a83 The other member of the treasure seeking duo is Marta. Unlike Dronya in Refrain, Marta is quite kind to her assistant and comes off as much more likable in comparison. Overall, nearly of the characters have layers to their characters and you won't be able to really know and understand them early on. MUSIC NIS Veteran Tenpei Sato returns to compose Galleria's soundtrack. The soundtrack is similar to Refrain where instead of Sato's usual bombastic style found in the Disgaea games, the songs here are more subdued. With Galleria, the only time where the soundtrack gets particularly intense are during some boss fights. While the music overall fit well with the game's tone and style and sounds nice in general, the songs don't really stick out much for me. Outside of the game, it's difficult to recall specific tracks at times. GRAPHICS AND ART DIRECTION The graphics and artstyle in Galleria haven't changed much from Refrain. The character portraits during the Visual Novel style cutscenes are nice to look at and come with various different expressions. The backgrounds are surprisingly beautiful and detailed at times. The dungeons don't really stand out much and the textures are not very detailed, but the issues weren't very noticeable for me most of the time. The monsters in the dungeons have good variety and not only do their models look good, they have decent animation during battle as well. Being a DRPG, the animations aren't anything sophisticated, but the idle movements look great compared to other DRPGs where the enemy sprites are static or in the case of 3D models, just don't look all that great. Overall, Galleria is one of the most beautiful looking DRPG I've seen. GAMEPLAY Other than the notable story emphasis, Galleria shines with its gameplay. The gameplay loop with the dungeon exploration is fun. The battles are solid and and there's a deep layer of customization. DUNGEON EXPLORATION Galleria has seen a few changes and additions to dungeon exploration compared to Refrain. Before, there weren't many dungeon exploration option or mechanics to deal with. Falling off a ledge is as bad as it gets there, but that is easily avoidable. Poison floors make up the other major obstacle and trap. Galleria now has invisible floor panels, pitfalls, underwater traversal, long distance jumping, fake walls, swamp water and something like an enclosed miasma space. The game gives you options to deal with all of them making the dungeon traversal more interesting and keeping it from being annoying and frustrating compared to some other DRPGs out there. One new good dungeon skill is the Fog cloak that not only negates swamp water damage, but also makes you invisible to enemies for a set amount of turns. Many of the dungeon skills are unlocked at various points of the story and requires mana to actually purchase the abilities in the Witch Petitions. https://preview.redd.it/1mjcby4s2a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=d84debfe4616594afa8626e59d147812109a6e60 In regards to enemies, they appear as floating giant eyeballs on the screen called Enemy Symbols. Touching them will trigger a battle so there's no random battles in the game. The Purple eyeballs are the powerful monsters that roam the area. They are generally best avoided until later in the game. The Enemy Symbols move as you move like a turn based scenario. With such a system, you can plan and avoid certain Enemy Symbols by doing some simple calculations. Avoiding the normal red symbols can be difficult at times due to their random movements, but purple symbols move in an orderly way so they can be easily avoided The wall break ability returns in Galleria which allows you to break down most walls and open up new paths or create shortcuts. It's a unique mechanic that I don't recall ever seeing in another DRPG before or at least as commonly used here. The wall break ability and other dungeon abilities make use of Reinforce Points. The starting value is 100 when you dive into a dungeon, but gets deducted base on your current Pact points (more on this later). Reinforce is an important resource not just for exploration, but also provides various benefits during combat. You can acquire more Reinforce Points by finding mana bubbles and mana stuck on walls. With the exception of walls with the \"red\" symbol, broken walls will be fixed to normal once you leave the dungeon The dungeon structures are well crafted like a puzzle. There are floors with many staircases that connect to various parts of the dungeons. Oftentimes, exploring the dungeons is not straightforward and requires careful thinking on how to proceed. Jumping down pitfalls (and taking damage) might sometimes be needed to reach new areas. Although, there are also more straightforward parts to them. One of the more simpler dungeon floors in the game Overall, the dungeon exploration and the structure of the dungeons are very good and are decently large in size. That said, I do find myself missing the thematic dungeons that Refrain had. Each dungeon felt like a completely new world populated with actual characters at times so they felt more interesting compared to Galleria's dungeons which felt more in-line as a single dungeon. The designs are less visually appealing in comparison. The dungeons in Galleria also lack notable story events too. New to Galleria are the randomly generated dungeons. There's a few of these in the game and they are all pretty similar to each other. Each floor is small in scale compared to the static dungeons, but they do make progressing much easier. The goal is to reach the staircase to the next floor and finding them isn't nearly as complicated as progressing in the other dungeons. This makes the experience not as interesting, but these dungeons are great if you just want to farm for new equipment and going through areas that are a bit more dynamic than static dungeons. CUSTOMIZATION Galleria has a surprisingly large amount of customization for the puppet party members. The customization options during creation includes, voice options, character portraits, the dominant hand, lucky number, favorite item, personality trait, stat growth to emphasize primary stats or a more balance growth, and a general stance to emphasize more power in place of defense and health. You can also pick a learnable starting skill right off the bat too. The options that don't affect stats directly tend to play a role in resonating with your other characters during battle. https://preview.redd.it/qsck1ktr3a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=a235e05152bb7e4df77f1353610e3be28cbe9443 There are a decent amount of classes (Facets) in the game totaling twelve. All of them have Alternate Facets that are similar at its core, but have different skills, stat growths and weapon proficiencies which makes the total amount of classes much more than just twelve. With the exception of the 4 special Facets, each Facet has a female counterpart in the bottom row One of Galleria and even Refrain's standout mechanic are the very large party size. The battle party (Brigade) consists of up to five Covens which are sort of like small squads. Each Coven can fit up to three attackers during battle and up to five more in the support slots. Those in the support slots don't normally actively participate in battle (other than followup attacks), but they do provide various passive effects to the Coven's attackers. Some support slots have passive effects just for filling the slot while other times, a character might have a "support skill" that is in effect only as a supporter role. Therefore, you can manage up to 40 characters to provide some use during battles. For those that like to manage a large amount of characters, this is a rare treat. https://preview.redd.it/zhw8l3r34a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=7ca8ffda5382e4128407c528540fe72b0b865e2c Unfortunately, you can't just start adding 40 characters to the brigade right away. The number of open slots for both attackers and supports depends on the Pact. Before you can add any characters to a Coven, it needs a specific Pact item which provides the number of open slots, the Donum (spells) available for it and the various stat and effect bonuses each slot has. Having a full 40 character brigade won't be available until much later in the game. A Coven's maxed DP (Donum Points) is based on the combined attackers' maxed DP in the Coven. A full powered Brigade As developers of Disgaea, it wasn't any surprise that NIS added extensive leveling and grinding mechanics. While the max level is technically 99, you can transfer a puppet's soul and reincarnate them into another puppet body. Their level resets back to 1 when that happens, but they will gain more stats on level up than before. The amount of stats gained are determined by their "Soul Clarity". Soul transfers will increase the Soul Clarity amount and the amount increase is depended on the puppet's level when it did the transfer. It doesn't mean that the game is as grindy either. I rarely "grinded" when completing "everything" in the game. https://preview.redd.it/1z1pw8ig4a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=0c2c03a771f409e7dec4c7c573813e4fb2f3d28f Skill inheriting is a bit different than in Refrain. For Galleria, puppets keep all of the skills they learn, but only a certain number of them can be turned on depending on the skill cost. This allows for easier creation of builds by carrying over all of the skills you have learned. Turning each skill off and on is simply done in the camp menu. It's important to note that skills are mostly passive ones. Only a few characters learn Donum spells which are otherwise only available based on the Pact you have equipped. COMBAT Like many DRPGs, the combat system is a turn based one. Despite the possible 15 attackers available during battles, you don't issue individual commands to each member normally. You only issue commands to each Coven so that one command will apply to all of the attackers in the Coven. You can however give orders to individuals for one turn by spending one Reinforce point which opens up additional options such as item usage and equipment change. https://preview.redd.it/hn4nt0fl4a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=b3c3d1717d57773086e0aaac3d15046de9930442 The battle sequence doesn't start until all commands are given. When that happens, your characters and the enemies' turns are queued together with the fastest characters/enemies acting first. https://preview.redd.it/vcv9c7bo4a3b1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=e383241ebc72b52ec2a27bd39558e14e5ca75462 Both characters and enemies have a stun gauge which if depleted, they will be unable to act for one turn. The Special Gore Hits return which are like super critical damages. Gore Hits on the party members mean a body part is destroyed thus rendering the equipment on that part null. If you were very unfortunate that the head is destroyed, the puppet is permanently KO'd until you repair them back in the outside world. New to Galleria are the Liberation gauge and skills. Each Coven has a Liberation gauge that fills up during battle from attacking and receiving damage. Once it is completely filled, the Coven has accessed to the Liberation skill that is based on the Pact. The skills are varied and includes an attack that damages a whole group of enemies, stat buffs or healing. On the Normal difficulty, many battles aren't difficult so auto battle can clear the majority of fights. That's assuming that party members' equipment and stats are at least up to speed. Bosses and also the Purple Powerful Enemies will be more challenging so that it requires more player attention and the use of buffs/debuffs. FINAL REMARKS Labyrinth of Galleria is a solid followup to Labyrinth of Refrain and improved on the gameplay in many ways. There are more dungeon mechanics, more Facets to use, and an easier to use skill inheritance system. While the story and the lack of story in dungeons aren't as strong as Refrain, it is still had an enjoyable one with many twists and turns. Galleria does benefit on having more likable characters as well. While there is an emphasis on the story, the vast majority of the game time is spent going through dungeons. Combat is on the easy side for most of the game, but some bosses can be quite challenging. Galleria overall is a very lengthy game that can take more than 90 hours just to complete all of the story and is rich in content. The random generated dungeons can add more game time for those that just want to farm for good equipment. For those new to the Labyrinth games, Galleria is a good starting place considering that the connections with Refrain are very minor for the most part. submitted by sleeping0dragon to JRPG [link] [comments] |

2023.05.31 23:51 Gatsu- Story time
This story took place around 1 year ago the day when the Scimitar was first added to the game. This was originally a reply to a comment but since people enjoyed it so much, I thought I'll give it its own post.
Yes, it is I! The Riposte Accel God in the flesh! I was going buck wild the other day and slaughtered every breathing thing without mercy! Now picture this:
I'm in enemy spawn mowing everything down like there is no tomorrow, mods included. The grass got so low people started to attempt to flee from their fate. I chased them down and let none of them escape. Mind you I'm constantly surrounded dancing like a ballerina that had too much to drink but eventually through a miracle bestowed by God himself, the enemy seemed to have mustered enough resolve to try to end my 47-kill streak.
The 3 smelliest sweats charged me from all angles one was spamming feint like he had lost all reason, another was entering the nastiest animation morph I had ever seen in my sweaty years on the fields, he was using a pole hammer of all weapons. And the last guy was getting ready to stab me with his arming sword using his momentum, I think. Not really sure, as I sent his head flying the moment his teammate archer sent an arrow in his back. Oh well, I guess we'll never know...
But then... like cockroaches on a warm summer night... Enemies were crawling out of every Crack in the walls, screeching like the filthy insects they are. Axes, daggers, javelins every weapon you can name was flying at me. At that point I understood I had to deal with the 2 remaining sweats quickly or else this could get dangerous even for someone like me. Some weapons were able to reach me but every second or half I was squashing a bug under my feet, so I wasn't really worried yet.
I was no longer in offense as there were to many of them and I had to keep enough distance to pick em off three by three. At this point I thought I was playing horde mode.
Now my back is almost against the wall I'm getting a little fatigued the waves just keep coming I can't deal with the 2 sweats now because the 3rd returned with spear and dodge not letting me get close enough to consume a naked firebomber like a health potion. But then I see the firebomber thinking they got me cornered fully and gets ready to throw a firebomb at me not knowing I'm rocking the fireproof perk. The moment I see him lift his hand I immediately jump forward in the air spinning like a bloody Frisby directly in the range of all 3 sweat lords. Home run! I used the firebomb to launch my 360 no hope riposte accel into them with unspeakable violence sending the spear guy's head flying again and tagging the other 2 for certain death.
Laughing like an eastern Nubian I proceeded to dismember the kind firebomber when Suddenly I heard someone's footsteps land behind me. The moment he landed I already turned to make eye contact. Who... after all this... still dares stand in my way? Have I gone too far? Lord God? Have you come to punish me for my sins? Have you come to cleanse me in your blood?!
Before me stood a vile creature of rank 12 holding a scimitar and it immediately started swinging. I ducked and kicked it while I was dancing around it. I knew right away this filthy thing had no skill only primal animal spamming instincts, so I decided I'd put it down swiftly then return to smash bugs.
Ding! Was the sound as it blocked my blade at the back of its head. Must have been desync... whatever I'll just look the creature in its eyes as I divorce its head from its body. Ding! Oh, it must have gotten lucky on my feint morph accel. My legendary riposte accel will end it for sure... Ding! Ding! I cranked up my dpi up 2 notches to max and still couldn't break through. The game wouldn't allow it. I fought the creature until it ran out of Stamina, during our exchange I killed around 10 of its own including some sweats, but I couldn't kill it by itself without draining it of stamina first.
What are some of your memorable stories? Please share.

2023.05.31 23:51 BadDecisions2468 Disgust and Regret After Gay Hookups
Tl;dr: the past year of my life has been my queer awakening. I’ve discovered that I’m bisexual, but after every single gay encounter I’ve had (a total of about 7,) even though I enjoy it in the moment, I’m immediately afterwards overcome by a profound sense of regret, disgust, and self loathing.
A little backstory: I’m 23 and had always identified as straight, even though I’d certainly been bicurious since my teenage years. Well, last summer I found out I’m certainly not straight, and experimented with about 5 male partners. I did it all (got oral, gave oral, topped, bottomed). Experiences ranged from decent to “meh” to one that outright disgusts me to this day, which when I think about, I could quite literally gag if I think too long about it.
All of this experimentation last year was over the course of a few weeks, during which I was having a manic episode (I have bipolar type 1). I broke up with my girlfriend at the time to rampantly hookup with 5 men over about a 10-day period. I immensely, immensely regret what I did during this time.
Cut to me becoming stable again, which leads us to January of this year. After the new year, those gay thoughts came back with a vengeance. Every day I’d download Grindr while horny, frantically search for someone to hookup with, then I’d rub one out before I could make impulsive decisions, get post nut clarity, and immediately delete the app. This went on every day for about a week until my dick just wouldn’t relent—and I got and gave oral to a man. During the experience, I quite enjoyed it. The day after, I was disgusted with myself (especially the fact that I gave him head. That made me feel very, very dirty.) I was so revolted after the fact, that this rampant horniness of the week prior, that would make me jerk off 2-3 times a day for 2 weeks straight, after the hookup became so nonexistent that I didn’t jerk off for probably 2 weeks.
I was constantly getting intrusive thoughts of revulsion and regret.
I swore off gay hookups, counted my blessings for not getting an STD (was tested right after, 4 weeks after, and 3 months after) and did my best to push those repulsive memories away whenever they came up.
This brings us to the past week. 5 months later, the gayness came back with a vengeance. In similar fashion as last time, it was a daily, sometimes twice daily cycle of “download grindr cause horny -> obsessively try and find a hookup -> masturbate -> post-nut clarity and delete it -> get horny and redownload it -> repeat ad nauseam”
Well last night I got drunk alone, and this time I made the poor decision to NOT just fucking jerk off and get rid of my disgusting thoughts. I hooked up with this random guy. He edged me for two hours. It was hot. I stayed hard the whole time, and came harder than I probably ever have. immediately after cumming, I was disgusted with myself. As I walked home I cursed at myself under my breath.
This morning I’m repulsed by what I did. I’m repulsed by the fact that I let a stranger do that to me. I’m repulsed that I could get an std.
I’m repulsed that I yet again didn’t learn from how disgusted I was the last time this happened.
Today I’ve been self loathing constantly; audibly saying “fuck you” to myself, having suicidal ideation, etc.
I just broke down crying that I did this again—that I once again will have profound anxiety about “what if I got an std?” Which will last yet another 90 days before all tests can be conclusive—that I will once again will be plagued daily with intrusive memories of the experience (memories which immediately make me want to kill myself).
I don’t know why I’m making this post. I don’t have a question for all you gay bros. I just needed to get this off my chest. I just wish my sexuality wasn’t so fucking confusing and contradictory to itself. I wish my sexuality would just remain constant, and I could hookup with whoever I want and not want to kill myself the day after.

submitted by bloodforurmom to skulduggerypleasant [link] [comments]
2023.05.31 23:51 imsowhoreable I (F25) am beyond annoyed with my boyfriends (M24) ex.
I’m just going to prepare you now, this is going to be a long one.
My boyfriend and I started dating in the middle of 2019. Since the moment we got together, I’ve had issues with his ex. She can’t seem to let him go. I understand being heartbroken and still in love with an ex, but I don’t think that gives you a right to completely disregard and disrespect their new relationship. For instance, the first time I “met” her she refused to speak to me, and acted like I was invisible the whole night. When she left she texts my boyfriend “wow that was weird” immediately. OK. Any chance she could to get him alone, she would bulldoze him about how much she misses him and how she still loves him and would do anything for them to get back together. Fast forward a couple months, it’s Thanksgiving. I’m spending it with my family, he was in college at the time so he was spending thanksgiving with his friends up at school. They had a Friendsgiving party, and of course, she shows up. She gets DRUNK and, according to everyone else who was there, she was climbing on top of him, trying to kiss him, not leaving him alone, professing her love to him, BEGGING for him back. Other people had to remove her from him. When I would come to visit him at school and she thought I had left to go home, she would send him messages or call him to tell him about how she loves him and misses him etc. I’ve expressed how I find her behavior extremely disrespectful to me, but anytime I bring it up people kind of shrug and go “yeah” almost saying “it sucks but that’s how it is.” I’ve talked to my boyfriend about how this makes me feel and I feel like half of him understands my feelings, but another half of him looks at her like the victim. He broke up with her and broke her heart and now he needs to fix it (is what I assume he’s feeling). Which is nice and all, but what about my feelings? He expressed to me SO many times how she would make him MISERABLE. He told me he was depressed and thinking about killing himself when they were together. And his friends even agreed that they never really liked her and how he’s been much happier being with me. There’s so many more details on how she’s swindled her way into his friend group and other instances of her disrespect. Oh and did I mention when this whole Friendsgiving drama went down, she was in a relationship with another guy? Who she is still in a relationship with now. Yet I’m treated like the villain for having ill feelings towards her. I’m getting exhausted of always taking the high road and keeping my mouth shut to preserve others feelings, when they obviously don’t care about mine. When will my feelings be validated?

2023.05.31 23:51 HoppingMexican Nord Backstory/Journal
My name is Thoric Soul-Breaker. I was raised by a group of hunters. Our camp is isolated near a town named Riverwood. My origin is a bit hazy to me. The hunters said I was founded alone at a young age in the woods of Skyrim on the brink of death. With tattered rags barely covering my back and clutching a blood-soaked, thin journal that belonged to my mother.
Most of the pages in the thin journal are ineligible due to what I assume is my mother’s blood. But I know a few things from my past thanks to the thin journal. I know that my father served in the Great War for the Imperial Legion. He was a fearless warrior, favoring the thrill of battle and putting his skills to the test with his ruthless battleaxe. One day he got mortally wounded. or it was supposed to be a fatal wound. But he came across an excellent healer who miraculously mended him. My mother, Rinari the Kind, as she was known, That’s how my mother and father began their relationship. My mother and father ran away together. where they set up a small camp near the border of Skyrim. My mother describes the camp as small, rickety, and run-down. But to her, she felt like she had the entirety of nirn. They lived off the land of Skyrim. Hunting and foraging whatever they could.
Eventually, my mother talks about how I was born into existence. She talks about my bright blue eyes, which reminded her of the Abecean Sea. My thick, dark brown hair and my snow-like skin She mentions that I was brave and fearless, just like my father. Eager To Learn And Prove Myself In whatever tasks I was given... [Unfortunately, blood makes the rest of the journal ineligible.]
As a man, now. I am to disband from this group and leave behind Skyrim to find my calling in life. I set out with some fresh venison, a clear conscience, and my trusty battleaxe.
As I’m crossing the border of Skyrim, I get caught along with some others by the Imperial Legion! wrongfully marked as a traitor to the Legion. I am scheduled for execution the very same day in Helgen. as I kneel down to the chopping block. My short-lived life flashes before me. A Dragon Suddenly appears and attacks Helgen! By some miracle, I escape the dragon, and I am hit with a sense of belonging. For the first time in my life, it’s as if I belong in Skyrim. I’m deciding to stay in Skyrim and make something of my life. I don’t know what it was. Maybe the mystery of dragons and the craving to unravel all of the mysteries of dragons? A sense to prove my worth and fight for the Imperial Legion as my father once did to restore Skyrim’s glory? Whatever it was, I will succeed. That I know of.

2023.05.31 23:50 prinkloverboo I exposed a rich capitalist in his circle, now his friend is concerned. Am I in the wrong?
Hi, so basically three years ago, I was sexually assaulted by a rich capitalist. He never directly apologized to me, he just wrote some half ss apology to this girl who stood up for me. I took the sceeenshots of the “apology” the screenshots of us communicating as well and made a whole twitter thread of how he abused me. I felt violated, humiliated helpless and extremely angry. My abuser helps the rich and richer and make the poor get poorer. This rich girl hated my guts for some reason and basically wanted to “sue” me (she wanted my money) so she dates rich guys whom she refers to as “assets” and sets girls up with her “assets” so her boyfriend can steal financial resources from their families and give it to the rich girl. What my abuser does is he preys on working class immigrant girls stalks where their dad works, buys out companies, lays off employees and basically gets their dad to lose their job steals their salary to give it to the rich and coerces poor girls to have sx with him. He sexually harasses them and sometimes even assaults them (like he did to me) this made me feel anger and rage because of how unjust it is, how unfair it is and how no one knows about the oppressive disgusting techniques this man uses to oppress working class immigrant families. I had a raging episode and followed people he was associated with on instagram and started exposed him for what he is… I said he’s a pdo, rpist, abuser, classist and racist. I said many more things about him and made “alarming allegations against him” apparently, I just continued to talk about him. Until i started getting responses, one girl that said she was just an acquaintance with him told me she doesn’t know him that well and that she read the tweets and was like “wtf” and blocked him on everything after she found out. The next day, one of my abusers friends reached out to on Linkedin and Twitter me saying that he’s concerned for his friend (my abuser) telling me that I’ve been actively reaching out to people in his circles etc. I’ll share the convo.
Friend: Hello P- recently spoke to a friend of mine who told me about some alarming allegations that were made against him. I'm messaging here independent of T*** and solely as a concerned friend of his. I'm sorry to hear that you felt the way you did. After T*** was shaken up and told me about the situation and after reading the tweets that i believe you published i confronted T***. I'm reaching out because he mentioned that you were still messaging people around him about what happened and I just wanted to know what you're seeking to accomplish here. I'm honestly so sorry that you felt the way you did and I just am concerned about my friend and looking to seek a resolution to this. J Also sent this on Linkedin earlier
Me: Hey, how did you find me?
Friend: When i confronted him about it - he told me your name
Me: and why did you message me? Are you a friend of his? What did they say about me?
Friend: lam a friend of his and he reached out to me for advice. I'm coming here only with good intentions - not trying to stir the pot or anything
Friend: He mentioned a burner Twitter account that makes some accusations about him and has some screenshots of convos between you. Also just want to be very clear
Friend: - l'm not here to dispute facts or anything Just concerned for my friend and wanted to reach out to have a conversation - that's all
Me: Okay well yeah l've been trying to get those tweets down but been having a hard time getting them down
Friend: And thats much appreciated - I know that was a big concern of his. He mentioned that you were like actively reaching out to people in his circle and that shook him up a bit
Friend: And i just wanted to see what your intention here was
Friend: [just don't want things to escalate any further - for everyone's well being and stepping in to see if there's just anything that I can either help with or do to make this all end
Friend: I'm happy to convey any message you want to send him or anything like that
Though this guy does seem friendly, I don’t trust him because i don’t know him or what he’s capable of. His bio also mentions that he’s in law… so i didn’t get that best vibes from him, so am i the asshole?

2023.05.31 23:50 bootssncatss Do you think Arthur was a little savage?
Sure Alex was ultimately the one who needed to be put away and receive intense psychiatric help for her mental illness. But I’m curious how everyone views Arthur’s actions in taking matters into his own hands and acting as a vigilante before Dan could go to the FBI (and ending up with Beth in the end never telling a soul what he did).

2023.05.31 23:50 all000000everything Illinois: 3 DUIs, 2 prior to 1985, one in 2012
I’m writing here because I’ve grown really frustrated trying to find advice anywhere else. Respectfully so, lawyers need retainers.
Anyways.
My Dad has been sober for 11 years since his most recent DUI. Recently my Mom has become very ill with Congenital Heart Failure and she’s on disability. My Dad is her main caretaker but also can no longer afford to pay the fees mandated for his breathalyzer in his car. - May 1st he had one of many hearings to have his license reinstated - We have not heard a decision from the state yet - None of his DUIs included violence or property damage
On Sunday, May 28th my Dad was stopped on his way home from an AA meeting at a roadblock and was arrested for driving on a “suspended license” - really it was because he was driving a vehicle without the state approved breathalyzer.
I’ve spoken with my lawyer and have been told this: “He did not meet the obligation of the state unfortunately and he will likely have an issue with reinstatement”.
I’ve researched a lot and found that precedent for 3+ DUIs in Illinois requires a breathalyzer for 4 years.
My question is, why does he keep being thrown through the loop every year despite dedicated sobriety, amazing character statements, and an 11 year track record proving he’s become a genuine kind-hearted family man who works hard to help his community? By Precedent he has gone beyond fulfilling requirements.
Is the state obligation just what the judge determines?
What kind of recourse do we have to fight back at how harsh this has all been?

Not a lot of people discuss this: but I don’t really get the whole idea of, “If God is good - then why doesn’t he do this and that.”
Imagine if I just showed up on Ted Ed one day on your computer and started talking about how you’re evil because you’re not doing stuff for me. Like, do you have to do this for me? I mean, God doesn’t really owe anything. If I were to ask you for a piece of gum - you wouldn’t have to give it to me. It would be nice, but it’s not like you owe me something.
Then they’re like, “But these people are suffering and he lets/makes it happen.”
Yeah, because he’s God. That’s what a god does. Did you fly to Africa and feed them anytime in your life? Did you build homes for the homeless? No, you didn’t. We just sat there and we let it happen. And why didn’t we? Probably the same reason God doesn’t. And if you did; so what? You have to do it now? Are you now the slave of every other person on earth?
Everyone just tells each other how something is good simply because they like it and it makes them happy. Sure, because happiness = good. Good to know.
I don’t want to sound mean: I just think it’s really stupid lol.
