>>209515 How do you prevent slimes from staining your upholstery?

Huh, apparently the navi in avatar never invented anything because eywa literally set down three laws 1. Do not build with stone 2. Do not use the wheel 3. Do not mine metal She really is just keeping them smart enought to worship her but dumb enough to not be a threat

>>209516 With enough surface tension, the slime should be able to hold onto all its liquid. I hope.

>>209516 Well my dear anon, it depends on the slime type and their consistency. I made sure to train my slimes to not leave trails

>>209520 Did you threaten them with bears?

>>209521 No my dear anon, When I used that image, I was thinking of a big slime in place of the bear as I began to teach them with treats

>>209518 Maybe humanity should mine this planet till it’s dry

>>209515 Dragon-Half is a great jump for Slime Time.

What would happen if you just threw a chunk of Originium from The funeral of all things perk in the Arcknights jump into the Root in Nasuland?

>Previously, on the actual Arknights writeup that proceeds the following incident addressing apocalyptic implications of the fucking Witness showing up in Destiny Rising's trailer rambling about timelines: https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/95721025/#95739039 Everything was settled. Everything should have been settled, at least. The nations of this world squirmed in suddenly uncomfortable thrones, trying to ignore the walls of Originium surrounding the hub I'd more or less strongarmed everyone into attending to figure out how to redistribute resources properly. The last traces of Oripathy were being wiped from the planet. Theresis was on his third cup of Tylenol for the day. The so-called Priestess had taken a leave of absence to go sent up the gravity musicals again. "So" I began, "we should talk about the corruption inherent in Victoria" "I thought this was the part where you started lording over us again as our god and master" said Kal'tsit wearily. "No. That clearly didn't work out well last time, so to be frank: I'm here to clean up this avatar of mine's mess, and then fuck off to a more productive planet" I said firmly. "Now, what do the aristocratic caste of Victoria actually DO?" "...do?" echoed some aristocratic representatives nervously. "Are you insinuating we DO things? Like PLEBIANS?!" "Hmm, that's a prob..." I trailed off. Something appeared in the sky. Something vaguely pyramidal. Something dark as the void between interstellar space. Something...familiar. No. Not familiar. Horrifyingly, HORRIFYINGLY more powerful than I'd ever seen it before. Wreathed in Darkness not unkind, but so utterly violent and possessive that malice would have been preferable. "No. NO! I DESTROYED YOU! I DESTROYED YOU" I shrieked, pointing out the window. I fired a blast of Prismatic energy that SHOULD have cleft through the Fleet, but the Darkness suddenly fluctuated on impact, dispersing it back into Light that merely knocked the ships about. "I CARVED YOU TO DUST!" I yelled, testing a barrage of other powers to see what work-tuning my adaptability to the Power of Order and Primus' energy proving reliable, but horrified to realise the Fleet was protected by enough esoteric reinforcement that the flow of calamity was no longer effective. "You all have to leave, NOW!" I shouted at the confused representatives of various nations. "Wait, you can't just-" With a wave of my hand I banished them all as a familiar presence loomed up into the sky, taking on it's million-handed form. "No, NO, WHY IS IT HERE?!" A small, slender reached out for me faster than light itself. I didn't scream. I didn't stab at the shadows opening up at me. Nor at the rotting wood and the lifeless garden filling the hall. I didn't even lash out at the dead girl in the chair. For I saw how the darkness-no, THE Darkness bent around it like a great shadow play cast from a lantern, saw how yearning had been poisoned into a want for me that would crack osmium to dust-and was above all else suffocated by a metaphysical pressure that, I belatedly realised, must have been the same force to make all the so-called Collapsals from former beings of cohesion. I just enacted a capital-W Wish to manifest a far greater history for avatar I'd reached this world through. >>206023 [Arknights] Drawbacks: Rainbow Six Siege Is Canon Shut The Fuck Up, Faction Alt, That Wasn't on the Enemy Counter, Sanity Compromised, Please Be Patient, I'm Fallen, Stage by Stage, WE WERE ONCE THE PROUD TEEKAZ, Raid Mode, Event Bait, Catastrophic Luck, Siren Song, There Are Emperor's Blades Outside My House, Bullshit of Damocles, Operator File, The Dust Has Settled, Nightmarepolitik, Catullus 16: A L I C E (5800) December 23, 1096 UNDISCLOSED + Race Add-Ons: Seaborn (5400), The Final Project, Drop-In Ori-What Now?

Why's the planet under invasion? Are the Observers back?" demanded the not-Priestess as she returned to find the Black Fleet cutting off the planet from outside contact with bursts of Resonance. "They might as well be. The threat above us has a far shorter range, but won't fall to a mere SINGLE attack from beyond the world-and defines conflict. Look, how should I say this-they're held together by something with the durability of Originium and the destructive potential of the Observers!" I exclaimed. She looked up at the steely halls and the glowing doorways she was pretty sure weren't in the Originium universe the last time she checked, and then shrugged, deciding not to comment too hard on it. Black hands lashed out from the corridor, and the Light within me drove it back but there was only laughter, laughter, laughter. The Priestess stared at me in concern. "Oracle. Was that-" "The core entity behind the manifesting phenomena, yes. How did I miss this?! The things registered by the natives as Collapsals-the commonalities between them are darkness, void...and gardening. WINNOWING, rather. The force behind them is dead by my hand-I know this! But the one who commands the threat was it's chosen weapon. If anything could overturn a final destruction, it would be the force embodying that final destruction itself..." Two entities awaited the final chamber, one veiled, one shielded. Both knelt, one with a knowing smile, the other with solemn anticipation. Yes. In the history I'd rewritten for this avatar, there had to be...prototypes, for the order of being I'd recreated with local materials. "How do we fight it?" asked the one named Priestess, urgently. "Like fire, with more fire" I said savagely, throwing open the doors and releasing the deadliest race in all the Destiny universe: Humanity. "Come and see" I told my newest batch of daughters. "We see. A threat. To our prosperity and your joy" they echoed. "Good. CRUSH the Black Fleet" I commanded. Unlike the Lilim subspecies of Destiny, this time there were no Vex-assisted Jjaro implants, no Anthem Anatheme to feed through nor dark matter to assimilate. Instead they had power my Oracle-self had simulated from the deific beings of this planet with Originium, the evolutionary potential of an older project, and a functional grasp of this world's sciences. In seconds, they'd breached into reality-cutting through the Black Fleet's ships like swarms of locusts. And the master of the Black Fleet, the First Knife, the Witness cleaved and dismantled their undying forms with billions of years' more experience. So there was war in the nearest thing in the heavens on a scale nothing born on this world had ever seen before, between Originium-blasting hiveminds and legions of Disciples torn from their timelines to fight younger versions of their master. The imminent civil wars of Terra halted for only one reason: The sight of far, FAR worse calamities taking place above them. Stars warped into black holes, the sky was rent to reveal incomprehensible layers of reality, and legions of Collapsals were conscripted by both sides to tear into each other. Though the Witness' seniority bent the bulk of them to it's will as with eerie focus and chilling hatred, it spoke one directive over and over again. Ironically, Theresis of all people proved to be one of the voices of reason along with Rhode Island. As he pointed out, everyone's racism can and should be concentrated on ACTUAL aliens. 1/2

>>209454 Can you take Holy Fool without innately being a vessel of collapsal bullshit, by not taking the other collapsal perks? Just being a fucked up psychic entity.

>>209505 Just do it. I myself I need to re read it as well.

"Cut away falsehood. Rip out the Light. And carve it anew" it whispered over and over again. "With no Gardener to interfere, a Final Shape yet looms" "The Gardener's tools will shatter you upon your Final Shape, as they did once before" I vowed, smashing several Pyramids on the way to it's capital ship, the Macrocosm. Our powers clashed, and I knew at once it had waited for this moment. "So many felled by your hand. Stand before their judgement" it intoned. With a wave of it's hand, a Taken Observer loomed out of the Ascendant Plane. Indifferent even in death, it's killing gaze swept over millennia of adaptations; as I flung before it's gaze to give my children time to adapt, the Witness atomised me billions and billions of times. My reformation delayed, it seized the Light spilling from me and began to shape- -and the shape unravelled. It's brow furrowed. My children had obtained the adaptations I'd manifested and were killing the Observer quickly, eating the Dark, eating the path for it back into the living world. The Witness seized Light and Darkness again- -the shape unravelled. "Impossible" "The Final Shape itself rejects you. You had your chance, and were cut apart instead" sang a golden, harmonious voice that suddenly manifested as yet another inexplicably feminine form between us. The Witness looked like it was about to spout a monologue about the first season in Destiny Rising. It looked like it was going to preach about the inevitability of finality and explain just who'd opened the gate for the Collapsals. But upon seeing the incarnation of it's own work preventing it's own completion, it let loose a scream of rage that shattered the new false sky, gripped my inchoate form in it's fists, drew forth a black sun in it's fist- -and said "You choose the Gardener over OUR knife again?! SO BE IT. What was unmade, can be MADE ANEW! As you gouged the Winnower...SO WE CAN PLANT IT IN A NEW VESSEL" Hands reached out from me again. Even perceived from higher dimensional viewpoints, they converged. At the Witness' gesture, the garden the was not the Black Garden opened up between us, the faceless and long-dead girl stood between us. And the Winnower, born anew, looked at me through her with an joy to test and iterate that was axiomatic with jilted rage. "Go on, little god. Reclaim your weapon as you once clutched me" entreated the Witness. I was held. FAST. Strand. Stasis. More aspects, the Witness gleefully severing the very concepts of fate. It's monomania, I thought, would be it's undoing. My calculations extended to expositing and shifting various forces below upon the Black Fleet, sabotaging it from within-in the long term, taking it's technology for Terra's own benefit. As Darkness threatened to strangle me, the counterplay I'd also calculated my avatar to own in his backstory entered. "Ah, gomen gomen, Oracle-san!" yelled a small girl-shaped patch of darkness, smashing through reality and tripping over with a sandwich in her mouth. "I'm late again, kyaaaa~" "What" said the Witness, as I started thrashing my way out. Originium, I realised, was something the Witness wasn't as familiar with as paracausality. "I'm Doctor's most reliable friend in every timeline where he doesn't have his memories lost and meets Amiya thatluckyslut, Alice!" declared the vaguely girl-shaped gaping wound in reality. "In the name of peace and cooperation between the races of Terra, I'll punish you!" "This is ridiculous. You are but the husk of a long-dead child, a wound charged with war!" ranted the Witness, grabbing me and trying to freeze me in a transcendental equation. I started forcing Light-infused Originium down it's orifices instead. "You stand before the truth carved in the image of your death! The very principle of competition and simplicity itself! The one who even in death, rules this...Winnower, what are you doing? Winnower?" it gurfled. "Fusion-haaaaa!" yelled Alice, headbutting the Winnower. Collapsals being what they were, their heads kinda...fused together. Elsewhere, the Witness was manifesting Sword Logic but even my punitive adaptations to the Observers' gaze were proving difficult for it to perforate. "Alright, Alright, that's enough stress testing" it said, staring at me as I parried the Witness' wild swing and detonated a Prismatic-infused Originium dyson sphere in it's chest cavity. Gaps in reality appeared, through which my children were smashing the Black Fleet in their coils even as blasts of Resonance cut them apart, or devouring Disciples who gouged at them every inch swallowed down their throats. "Had to make sure you didn't go soft in this world! You had me worried with that Rhode Island nonsense. But you pass again"" "No! NO! STOP THAT! Get back here and fight me this INSTANT!" I shouted at it. "I REFUSE to induct you into Rhode Island!" "Yes, LISTEN to my baffling ideological opponent!" yelled the Witness, tearing itself apart to escape my pummelling. "He wishes to overturn everything you stand for!" "Oh NO" it breathed, forcing itself the rest of the way down Alice's float, "I'm being convinced by your idealistic worldview and the threat of superior force of arms, as well as being literally subsumed by this other character! I'm being pacified and mending my relationshiiiiiiiiip with yoooooou" it yelled. "Also, didn't you tell Calus to blow up my home?" it added. "Who?" muttered the Witness. "I DO NOT CONSENT TO ROLLING YOU! GET OUT! GET OUT OF MY TEAM ROSTER RIGHT NOW! I'LL BURN YOU FOR GACHA MATERIALS" I started screaming in cosmically applicable linguistics. I backhanded the battered Witness out of the way as I tried to force open Alice's jaws to spit out the Winnower. But it was too late. It was stuck in there. Realising suddenly I had more ways of enacting final death than just through Prismatic, the Witness beat a hasty retreat, escaping to another timeline as I struggled and struggled until I grumpily returned to lead yet another damn peace council after ensuring the Winnower was STUCK inside the eldritch kouhai my naive avatar had apparently made trying to save a dead girl from being a Collapsal. This time with an ancient enemy once again caged inside two dead girls.

[Expand Post]

"Hi, you must be Amiya! You sure look alive and not destroying the world my man died trying to save in a wave of Originium!" said Alice cheerfully while I started the meeting by asking Theresis if he had any spare Tylenol. "Oh, are you another friend of the Doctor? Or um, the Oracle now? I hope we can all reach an understanding, no matter how..." Amiya stared at the wound in reality nervously "...different, we all are?" Still smiling, Alice leaned in and whispered "Don't fuck this up or I'll gut you like a fish". Then her eyes rolled up in her skull and, carefully turning her back on the crowd, she peeled off her face to reveal the Winnower grinning behind it. "It's cool, the dead girl's the jealous one. I like to watch" it whispered at Amiya as she backed away nervously. 2/2

>>209526 >catallus 16: HER why would you do this

>>209518 I'll do all three and she can fuck herself.

>>209530 Because I've lost control of my life|I needed worthy opponents|the implications of what the Witness said in that one Destiny Rising trailer AND Arknights crossing over with Destiny are horrifying

>Such is the Joy of Our Reunion Surely you wouldn't fuck 1/12th of yourself, right?

>>209518 >Stack a couple of rocks on top of each other >God declares that you must be put to death

>>209533 Depends is 1/12 of myself a cute girl?

>>209534 Because building with stone leaves permanent structures and permanent structures harm the environment. Apparently. Thats why navi have to live in trees which are totally not permanent structures.

Okay what perks can I take in the Arknights jump and elsewhere to not irrevocably ruin the world after taking a full colapssal build?

>>209531 That battle creature is exquisite

>>209533 I would build sui, get such is the joy of our reuinion anyway use The power of that Proxy to fanwank that I manipulated my divine energy, weakening myself to make the sui siblings real just so I can fuck them while theyre part of me.

>>209538 Fun fact! The Cat race of Epic Battle Fantasy is completely limbless due to their God, Godcat, punishing them. They built that shit limbless.

>>209537 Here a people sow Our Familiar Way, With Familiar Friends(Collapsals) The Earth Wakes Harbor Resentment Put Me Back In, I’m Not Doc Even all of this inst enough. You'll need to find perks somewhere else to enhance your Ancient racism skills against the Collapsals.

>>209540 Why did he punish them? Also thats impressive

>>209536 everything i learn about avatar just makes me want to punch james cameron in the mouth a little more.

>>209542 >In the beginning, there was a single, divine being. Her name was Godcat. But Godcat was lonely, so she created the heavens and the earth, and all the creatures who inhabit it. She then created cats in her own image, and gave them dominion over the land, and over all other creatures. >... For thousands of years, cats ruled the earth. They built great civilizations and had developed advanced technology. But they eventually became too friendly with humans... >Godcat was jealous of this new alliance, of cats and humans. She destroyed all that the cats had built. Godcat's greatest creation was no longer worthy of her image, so she took away their arms and legs, and that's how they have remained to this day. >Godcat then departed this world, and they say she left behind only these three jewels. For generations, humans have protected the jewels and kept them apart from each other, as they feared that Godcat would return if the jewels were ever brought together again

>>209534 its not literal, you can build a campfire, but you cant build walls and houses and the like.

>>209518 In most religions that is how humanity started. The one rule given to the god in charge of making humans was no free will. So out of spite he gave us free will.

>>209544 >>209542 Godcat is also not a single being, but two. Both are Godcat.

>>209534 Damn, that's crazy.

>>209547 >>209544 Ah so she was just a normal psychopathic cat god then.

>>209526 >>209529 YOU WILL REDEEM THE ALICE. THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL.

>>209548 god stopped paying attention. let's try again.

>>209549 She did at least recognize her failure at the end of the game, so she has that going for her.

>>209547 >cats have the same potential to become JRPG hero-tier but are too lazy to try

>>209526 I don't see Till next Update.

>>209548 The Tower of Babel itself wasn't evil, it was beause they built it out of spite against God.

I feel that people judge Avatar too harshly for not having a cultural impact.

>>209498 Generic Medical Drama has perks for cleaning/sterilizing tings and getting good diagnostics by looking at people. >>209508 Ric needs money if you need jumps

>>209566 Can you name any Navi characters without looking them up right now? Can you name ANY characters besides Jake, Nefertiti and Colonel Quidditch?

>>209568 Well, i can name them but thats because of the research i had to do to make the avatar jump. But i don't see that as a problem. James Cameron made a world, sure it didn't had powerful characters but anyone who watched the movies left the theaters satisfied from having a good experience.

After doing some research, I have come to the concusion that the Sarkaz/Teekzaz in Arknights are correct in their racism - everyone else really does deserve to die. Also Kal'tsit is both retarded and evil, a dangerous combination.

>>209568 Sexy Hispanic military lady that dies in every movie she is in?

>>209569 >but anyone who watched the movies left the theaters satisfied from having a good experience. So you're saying 50 Shades of Grey nd Twilight were good movies, huh? Do you think McDonalds is high cuisine?

>>209568 Corpo man, Scientist doctor lady, Neytiri's mom, Quaritch but Avatar, the tube top/belt bra fire navi, Tatl, and Tael

>>209567 I would give ric $20 if he could make jumps. Im not above funding my hobby.

>>209566 Why must movies have a cultural impact? If its good its good, too many have negative impacts these days

>>209572 These are completely different. Avatar pioneered technologies and have solid worldbuilding. Your examples are just ordinary movies that satisfied a niche. All i am saying is that the quality of a movie do not depends exclusively on how quotable it is or how memorable its characters are. Movies can explore worldbuilding and immersion too.

>>209571 That's not a name. >>209573 Most of those aren't name. But you do seem to know two, so you get a passing grade. >>209576 >Avatar... solid world building. No it fucking doesn't.

>>209570 >t.

>>209570 >D*vil sympathizer.

>>209566 It's just a space version of The Last Of The Mohicans. And an inferior one at that when Disney's Atlantis (And The Road To El Dorado) did largely the same thing, and people still remember and adored that movie. Then there's also the fact that James Cameron outright admitted that he ripped much of the concept and ideas for Avatar from the Barsoom novels, which was the original planetary space opera and influenced everything over the past century from Flash Gordon to Star Wars, and even has it's own race of cool-skinned giant alien women. AND even had it's own movie come out a few years later (Which is perhaps one of the best movies you never saw). At the end of the day, there's nothing "special" about Avatar. But they keep trying to force it on people as being this "popular thing" but no one gave a shit about the movie even a year after it came out. In fact, the only "lasting" influence the film even had was that brief trend of attempting to make all media 3D. Remember the Nintendo 3DS?

I'm kinda surprised that not a single avatar jump offers the scorpion. Not even the one focused on the RDA. Its a gunship armed to the teeth (ten rocket pods holding 19 rockets each, 12 missiles, six .50cal machine guns, four 20mm autocannons) controlled by a single pilot. I typically have a lot of utility aircraft by the time I reach Avatar, but not many dedicated gunships.

>>209578 Tracy's asymmetric horns makes me want to snap them in half.

>>209566 Avatar had major cultural impact in the sense of how movies are made and marketed(a number of bad ones too like every movie for 5 years after the first one being made in 3d in post editing). It just didn't have impact in terms of the audience referencing the story/characters. But that isn't really the strength of the movie anyone cares about anyway. Personally I'd compare it to Fantasia in that regard.

>>209577 It has good worldbuilding. It's just that you need to read it in other places than just watching the movie. >>209580 i see your point.

>>209584 >It's just that you need to read it in other places than just watching the movie. Then it's not good worldbuilding.

So would introducing eywa to the hollow earth from godzilla would be a bad thing?

>>209553 >>209560 Also fun fact, in the fifth game when you get the option to fight the mandatory evil counterparts to the players, NoLegs counterpart is just straight up god. This is because cats are already evil.

>>209587 He also gives a constant upgrading buff to EVERYONE in the fight for some reason.

>>209587 Also a Super saiyan who can throw Spirit Bombs out like a kid eats candy.

>>209588 It's because his fight is a statcheck. The other evil players all have a gimmick of some kind. I don't remember most of them off the top of my head, but I know that you have to defeat evil matt in exactly 15 turns or he autokills you. For God, the gimmick is literally just "I want you to hit me as hard as you can." >>209589 Well, no. He's a cat, not a monkey. You do earn an achievement named Super S*yan by beating him though.

>>209580 >Disney's Atlantis >spent 12,000 years trapped in a small community >falls for the first guy she meets from the outside There is no way I can be convinced that she didn't fuck everyone else over that time period. Just the boredom would have lead to it.

>>209590 If you kill him his gold fur and aura stops, leaving him with purple fur. He's 100% a Super saiyan.

>>209591 Well yeah but since the crystals have healing properties she is probably just as tight as before.

>>209518 Wow, Congrats Eywa, you are somehow literally worse than Danu. Its impressive we have an Earth Mother who is somehow worse than the Woman Moment Goddess. At least Danu doesn't prevent all building and civilization, just tries to cull things when it gets too crazy via flood or a champion, but even then ultimately lets humanity keep doing it anyway.

>>209593 She would have hundreds of years of pure sexual technique. No mortal man would be able to handle her

>>209594 >bottom right Ah so this is where umbrella corp started

>>209577 >That's not a name. Michelle Rodriguez

>>209596 I would not be surprised if Umbrella Corp was a Cyth Conspiracy at some point

>>209593 With that much sex, she would be incapable of long term pair bonding. Though, since they live that long the nerd guy is more of a quick fuck in her eyes or a pet >>209595 She must be very disappointed in being that far above him. Or she enjoys teaching what she considers virgins.

Would ten million people be a good number for the population of Gotham?

>>209600 Dark Knight movies claim 30 million

>>209600 I think a better number would be zero.

>>209600 Current population of NYC is 8,478,072, so I'd say so.

>>209594 Now while I do agree the fact that she provides a verifyable afterlife that the living can interact with is very enticing and the navi dont seem to have a problem living in primitivism, though its not that they have any chance to see what not living in the dirt is like. Eywa gives them a lot of what we would call quality of life buffs. They even have a relatively plentiful plant that can heal injuries by slathering its fruit pods juice on the injury. All she asks is that you stay primitive. Though it seems nomadic tribes do exist and they have made floating cities somehow. I would have liked to see some REALLY nomadic seagoing tribes that live on massive boats or something since that doesnt preclude any of her rules.

>>209600 I dont see why anyone would live in gotham

>>209576 >solid worldbuilding It's garbage and falls apart with the slightest amount of thought. All of the HFY memes around the movie exist solely because of the poor worldbuilding. >pioneered technologies A pretty screensaver does not make a good movie. Unfortunately JC has consistently gotten worse over time as a director, likely because he makes money and so studios let him do as he pleases.

>>209601 >30 million That's a higher population than the total populace of any single US state except for Texas or California.

>>209600 that's explicitly the population of Gotham in the DCAU.

>>209604 Despite the humans technology humanity itself doesn't have much of the quality of life the na'vi have, especially with eywa. The Na'vi don't suffer from diseases, war, famine and literally have a living goddess they can communicate and upload their memories to. >>209605 I think it would be the same reasons people live in Sunnydale. Cheap houses, good weather and a magical curse incentivizing people to not care about the city's problems. Of course, different from Sunnydale, i don't think you can see Gotham as comfy.

>>209605 Rent is about $10 annually and the city has very cheap but very good universities. Why do you think so many villains are doctors?

>>209607 >So much crime that people are illegally breaking physics to be there

>>209606 That's the fault of James Cameron who cut a lot of scenes. For example Quaritch was supposed to threaten Selfridge in order to firebomb the na'vi because the RDA never wanted to do anything that could create a bad PR on earth.

>>209607 That is the Dark Knight movies for you. And Batman claims no one died when he was rampaging through an empty city and flipping cop cars left and right. >>209605 A lot of city people fear and freak out about not living in stone hives

>>209609 >literally have a living goddess they can communicate and upload their memories to. Until you ask a question she can't answer, then she gives you epilepsy. A question she can't answer because she doesn't actually have their memories, the trees just stimulates the memory centers of navi brains.

>>209601 when is that mentioned? Googling shows me nothing and the Dark Knight wiki claims its 12 million in their universe.

>>209612 It's more than that. It's the fact that humans should dominate the setting under any rational evaluation of the rules that JC chose to establish, and don't because muh noble savage + plot armor. It's a cringe misanthropic series of movies with no heart, and that's why people barely think about them.

>>209615 Morgan Freeman uses that number when Bats gives him the giant sonar machine to fight Joker.

>>209611 >>209613 And by the 2024 census, Texas only has 31 million. So Gotham would have the entire population of Texas condensed into one city. Or the equivalent of the top 25 cities in the United States combined. It's a city 8 times larger than Los Angeles.

Since both Feranmuts (probably) and Sarkaz are natives of the planet, it is only right for them to band together, isn't it? I will lead the cute horn girls to prosperity again as a kaiju witch king, even if I have to fight the world for it. Which I am definitely going to have to do with these drawbacks. The unvierse really is racist against the Sarkaz.

>>209609 Humans DO have some crazy good shit but earth is a radioactive shithole and the cities are cyberpunk dystopias. Rda was actually reclaiming some of the wastelands using pandoran plantlife since it could eat the radiation, they were also making cheap lights with the biolumenescent plants. Its a shame the cool human stuff doesnt get much screentime and you only really see the stuff that is used to push human bad narrative or their literal edge of civilization outposts.

>>209617 me Found the video - look at 0:48 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRELLH86Edo >>209618 Hollywood thinks big numbers make them sound smart. They do not understand people will do the math and see it wont add up

>>209614 Eh the games at least show that the trees and plants do store the person when they die since they have you learning from dead members of the navi kids former tribe. Though its game so dubious canonicity.

>>209605 Gotham has a very high percentage of millionaire and billionaire per capita. It also has a lot of big companies headquarters or at least their R&D departments, almost as much as Metropolis. Those companies probably have to pay good salaries to attract workers. This leads me to believe Gotham has low taxes and lax enviromentalism and anti research rules. Gotham is a very republican city and if not for being super cursed it would be one of the best cities in the country. Also, notice how almost none of the psychos are diverse, and you rarely see a token diveristy among criminals? Gotham is high majority white. If it wasn't supercursed it would be one of the safest cities in the world.

>>209619 Imagine being a S*rkaz.

>>209617 >>209621 yeah i just saw that, thats crazy, hell depending on how you interpret the wording of him only having access to half the cities phones this could imply up to 60 million people.

>>209624 All of the cannibalism accusations are fake news created by their enemies to discredit them, it's all in the past. And if one or two people were eaten then they probably deserved it.

>>209625 >depending on how you interpret the wording of him only having access to half the cities phones this could imply up to 60 million people. At that point, Gotham has roughly 1/5 of the population of the entire country.

>>209625 Oh dang, I missed that line and focused on the 30 mill. A population of 60 mill makes me wonder how anyone would travel around. The streets and alleys have very little traffic. Or how 60 million were fed during Bane's 5 month control of the city as very few food trucks were seen.

>>209625 I thought he shipped phones out across the world, not just in gotham.

>>209629 nah, just gotham from the script >Like the phone I gave you in Hong Kong. You took my sonar concept and applied it to everybody's phone in the City, With half the city feeding you sonar you can image all of Gotham. .... >Spying on thirty million people wasn’t in my job description.

Help me here guys. I want to add the entire network that the Riddler builds in the movie to drain the intellect of the population of Gotham, but i feel that trivializes the 600 perk from the riddler origin that lets you build the machines in the first place. Should i add it or not?

>>209630 Well thats just fucking stupid

>>209630 Even assuming just 30 million from the "image all of Gotham" part is ludicrous.

>>209631 Make it a 400 cp option for your own network, 600 for the abiloty to build a network, that makes it better for the origin to build their own but more cost effective timewise to buy it if you want.

Okay, but how the fuck did Batman get everyone to download a program that would allow them to be used like that. I suspect it would kill the batteries fast.

Ever since I figured out how to add a gradient effect to text on Google docs, I can't help but abuse it at every opportunity. Well, nobody's complained yet so I guess it's fine. On a tangentially related note, IGSBE is coming along. I didn't get as much done yesterday as I was hoping, but I still think I can get everything other than perks fluffed by the end of today.

>>209635 Hey guys, Bruce Wayne here, Im holding a massive social experiement andnyou can be part of it! Just download my app and I will pay YOU $20!

>>209631 I tendentially prefer the ability to build large-scale machine I can customize rather than already having them with an ability I'm not interested in.

>>209636 I forget what IGSBE is, but good luck with the jump friend.

>>209619 This is the reason the great hunt started in the first place

>>209635 Make it a part of an autoupgrade for the firmware.

>>209639 Nta, I Get Stronger By Eating.

I find it amusing that Norm, of all people, also had a navi family. Blue puss must grip different.

I wish Val did that Tomb Kings rework.

>>209609 >The Na'vi don't suffer from diseases, war, famine and literally have a living goddess they can communicate and upload their memories to. You do realize that you just described the AI Hellscape that our current overlords are trying to create, right? Except instead of it being based around an "internet of things" with "unattractive" wires, cameras, and AI, it is instead "all" nature. That doesn't sound like a pleasent life for any reason. >>209622 >the games at least show that the trees and plants do store the person when they die That's even more retarded because all that has to happen is that you cut down a tree and lose an entire generation of knowledge and history. In fact, what's to stop the planet's climate from doing exactly that? Hell, here on Earth, plants live and die all the the time as a part of the natural cycle. In California, the gigantic sequoia trees cannot grow without seasonal fires occuring. So how the fuck does any of this shit make sense? >>209635 >Okay, but how the fuck did Batman get everyone to download a program that would allow them to be used like that. Anon, first, it's a movie. Second, hackers have found a way to make computer download material through turning your speakers into a microphone. Third, your phone is ALREADY collecting all the data, which means all that he has to do is hack the cell towers and begin dispersing all that content through the local cellphone networks.

>>209635 Do you not have a phone?

>>209645 >That's even more retarded because all that has to happen is that you cut down a tree and lose an entire generation of knowledge and history. Thats kinda the problem with what happened in the movie remember? But at least in the game its less ONE TREE holds all this and more that each tree os an access node in the distributed array of natural data storage servers that makes up the planets flora.

>>209645 >Anon, first, it's a movie. Well, that does explain how the govt never looked at all the military tech produced by Wayne Tech being used by an vigilante. After all, even if most did not know about the details, they would move in to take that tech. I am surprised no one thought Batman was just testing military tech in the field and the no killing aspect was part of keeping it from becoming too illegal.

>Be ancient >Arrive on the planet >Steamroll the native population so hard they get generational traume >Shatter 90% of the local gods and turns them into government workers >Erase all the reality warping demons on the south pole of the planet Yeah, I'm thinking based.

>>209619 I built a sui tier feranmut living in Laterano. Seems like were fated to clash.

>>209648 >After all, even if most did not know about the details, they would move in to take that tech. >Meanwhile, Afton in a pizzaria with a box of scraps:

>>209624 Counter argument: He is not a sarkaz. He is a Feranmut larping as a sarkaz. Technically he is doing the equivalent of wearing black face but that's beside the point. Hes still a D*vil sympathizer

>>209648 In a world without superpowers Bruce Wayne IS the government.

>>209651 But that's a Henry design

>>209654 *Murray

>>209653 So Bruce is part of the Gotham Industrial Complex?

>>209653 I want to go tot he Dark Kinght jump with powers and magic. Instead of being a superhero I will just live stream archeology and parties on the moon or bottom of the ocean. I will "abduct" historians and conspiracy people to go with me and test out their historical events. Like going inside of the China's first emperor tomb

>>209656 Always has been

>>209654 >>209655 Truly, William Henry Murray was a visionary.

>>209580 No nose alien just reminds me of the Queen of Mars from Looney Tunes. Damn she was great for a chick without a face

>>209656 Yes, and the court of owls is probably there someplace controlling the mobs. But more normal non magical rich cult. So just a bunch of pedos, orgies and human sacrifices that never get answered.

>>209647 >Thats kinda the problem with what happened in the movie remember? But it didn't have to BE a problem in the first place. Contrast it against how our world currently looks at technology. I can right now begin downloading content left and right off of Jewtube through programs like yt-dlp. In fact, download the content in almost 1-to-1 quality and preserve all that data. And if Goolag's servers ever get firebombed, none of that data is lost as they can just copy all of it from the backups made by people like me. Same thing here. The Na'vi wouldn't lose all that knowledge and memories if anyone ever bother to write that shit down. Yeah, it may be "preferred" to upload your consciousness to The Matrix when you're on your deathbed, but what happens when a meteor comes hurtling towards the planet and hits the very tree you're stored in. What then? Hell, they could probably also go down the route of making some sort of network where they have trees as backups to the trees in case so that you could have three backups of your father in the case the original tree that housed your father suffers some sort of accident. In fact, that would also make for some very interesting lore if they ever became a space traveling race as you see them create this massive terrarium inside of their space ships for the expressed purposes of retaining their people's knowledge when away from home. Also for some interesting stories because if you can "download" your mind to "Nature.net", couldnt' it also go in the reverse and have your mind uploaded into another Na'vi. In fact, have it where Na'vi can link and switch bodies. And the first movie even opens the fact that even humans can connect to the Na'vi's Nature.net, which means they can also see our memories and experiences (And imagine if they even make something like human genetic memory canon). The possibilities are endless. Including the possible implication that Nature.net is purposely keeping people primitive by sublte changing their minds and attitudes, like what happened in a few episodes of Stargate). But, no, you cannot have fun because James Cameron wants to make a statement about how evil man is regarding nature.

>>209640 The reason the great hunt started is that Sui was a retarded traitor. But don't worry, destroying Yan is also on the list.

>>209656 Everybody ignored my answer, but YES! Gotham does have a Gotham Industrial Complex. Not only Waynetech but multiple other big companies. Gotham has more big millionaire parties per year than Washington and Hollywood. Combined. And that's just the ones we see Bruce having to leave early to do Batman stuff or we see getting robbed by a supervillain, there are probably even more we see off page, just to make sense that they don't stop having them altogether.

>>209664 I do recall in Batman TAS, one of the rich assholes talks about how they throw parties just to have them attacked. It is half boredom and half a social movie that ups your standing. It was in the episode where the rich girl tries to seduce Penguin and then falls for him when he was willing to save her from thugs. He is understandable pissed when he finds out the truth.

Good night friends.

>>209662 Some of that is also covered in frontiers of pandora, like iirc theres a knot language from the tribe the rda killed off that they used to record history in rope bracelets. However even if the trees dont have everything stored in 1 tree the religious background would still make it horrifying to see one burned. Also literally jake sully gets the upload treatment. I would love a look at a spacefaring version of navi though, one where the humans and navi met up and worked together. Maybe I could import them as a race in the culture. Massive terrarrium gardens inside the ship would also be good for the humans mental health.

>>209666 Have a good sleep.

>>209666 good night wol

>>209587 Hey BLADE. In Epic Battle Fantasy the drawbacks section states we can keep our drawbacks at half value from Epic Battle Flash. If I took Reset by the Reset in Fantasy, could I also keep my build from Flash at a reduced level?

>>209619 What does your Kaiju form look like?

>>209671 Since Fantasy In The Mirage mentions a storm I thought a gigantic storm front manifested as a bird of clouds, wind, and lightning spanning the horizon woulld be neat. May or may not be the second phase after using Honeybiscuits since I don't know what the upgrade after that would be.

>>209667 >the religious background would still make it horrifying to see one burned But that is something the Na'vi would have no control over. What's to stop the weather from destroying a part of nature, or something out in space? Also, there's the possible implication that since Nature.net is in control of everything, and that it's "data capacity" is limited to however many trees exist on the planet, what's to stop it from killing off trees in some relatively unhinhabited part of the world in order to make way for "new" data?

Anyone happen to have a list of jumps with the "perk/item/etc." lockout drawbacks?

>>209670 Sure.

>>209673 >what's to stop it from killing off trees in some relatively unhinhabited part of the world in order to make way for "new" data? I guess the question at that point is how much data is actually stored on the trees. The obvious answer is that it likely doesn't kill off trees that are in unused parts, because that would be the same as burning unread books in a library; sure, those books are not read. but it is always possible the information stored on them could be useful. >>209674 If you asking for the list of jumps with powerloss drawbacks, the answer is way too many to list. If you are instead asking for a list of jumps where you can individually lockout perks/items/etc instead of in general, I am judging you, powergamer.

does anyone else avoid taking canon companions entirely? i've been blocking out my first chain in a while and i find myself gravitating toward just. coming up with my own characters. >>209555 https://youtu.be/IZzSxLdLVp4

>>209677 Taking canon companions, at least if you like to write the story of your jumps, makes you always have to be aware of the possibility of depicting the character in question incorrectly. Along with the fact I don't think most canon characters are actually interested on going on a multiversal adventure, I generally don't get canon characters either.

>>209675 Nice! Thanks.

>>209677 Effectively at this point this is what I do.

>>209677 Depends. I usually don't mind making OCs, but some jumps I only take canon characters, because finding good art for them is a pain in the dick. I like having folders of art for what I have on a chain, makes good reference points.

>>209679 Np. I'm usually fairly accepting of that kind of continuity bonus, like how Majora's Mask in gauntlet mode lets you keep your build from Ocarina of Time. Also gib builds.

>>209681 last time i bothered with a chain i just sprited my jumper/followers, but... this time around, i wanna finish writing every jump i want for my chain that doesn't exist yet. before starting on art.

>>209672 >Since Fantasy In The Mirage mentions a storm I thought a gigantic storm front manifested as a bird of clouds, wind, and lightning spanning the horizon woulld be neat. May or may not be the second phase after using Honeybiscuits since I don't know what the upgrade after that would be A bigger bird made of clouds, winds and lightning. Does this mean your base jumanoid form looks like a Liberi?

>>209682 Gib me a while. There's a lot of stuff I want, and I'm not gonna get.

Since batman can survive falling from orbit, does that means that getting a superpower in a DC jump is the worst possible decision you can make instead of getting peak human 600cp or something like that?

>>209684 Forgot pic, but I'm 90% sure that bird and this girl are the same person.

>>209684 >A bigger bird made of clouds, winds and lightning. Nah that's boring. I think my normal Feranmut form can be a classic physical Thunderbird, and then the second phase is me spreading myself throughout the atmosphere. But then again, my Arknights build is basically just a gigacaster so this form isn't all that fitting anyway, maybe I'll come up with something better. >base jumanoid form Just standard horns and a tail.

>>209685 I shall take that as a compliment.

>>209673 Seeing a church burned by lightning is less offensive that it being burned by heretic nonbelievers.

>>209686 No, because Batman only survived falling from orbit because he essentially designed his suit to help him survive the re-entry heat. Even then, he still had to make sure he slowed down enough to land. That's ignoring the utter impossibility of the suit being actually able to provide enough on both fronts, but I'll chalk it up to comic superscience as opposed to "Batman peak human" bullshit.

>>209688 I thought your human form had to somewhat ressemble your giant feranmut form. >You resemble a mixture of the animal or creature your race is based on, and a geographic fixture. Mhmm, maybe something like primal form of the anasa?

>>209691 The obvious question is, how fast was Batman going when he began reentry? Spacecraft need the heat shield because slowing down by slamming into the atmosphere at something like 20,000 miles per hour is more weight efficient then carrying the fuel needed to slow down.

>>209691 >>209691 Even you must admit the sheer impossibility of surviving that with just a suit resistant to high temperatures. Just the g-forces and the pressure would kill a normal man. This makes me remember how valuable the martial arts perk from the psychoanon teen titans jump is because of Robin doing kneedrops on concrete villains and dismantling robots with his punches like his diet was composed of supersoldier serum.

>>209674 Haydee and Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog come to mind.

>>209677 I tend to take more background characters and not many main ones. Everyone wants to party with Superman on a chain, but why does no one care to help Jimmy?

>>209694 Dunno. Comics aren't known to make accurate scientific calculations. >>209696 Just looking at the pages of the event in question, Batman realized he had to balance slowing down so he can survive the impact and slowing down to quickly and being crushed by the momentum change. While it still is in the realm of unrealistic survivals, the entire situation falls into Comic Logic more than it attributes Batman's survival to anything but the suit (and his BatTrunks) extreme resistance to heat. I don't want to pull up the context, but nothing about Batman's physiology let him survive this, beyond his quick thinking to protect his face.

>>209674 6 of mine have it.

>>209698 >but why does no one care to help Jimmy https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/James_Olsen_(Earth_2)

>>209518 You know, I wonder how she'd react to reading enough human memories to realize that Earth never communicated with or set rules for her children like that. Would it be more "what do you mean she just sat there while they killed her?!" or more "well, now I feel very validated in my design choices."?

>>209703 nta, but The MC shared his memories of earth with her at the end of the first movie, thats why she rejected the humans during the final battle and had all the Pandoran wildlife attack humans. Its the only reason why they could win.

>>209636 In the Hitman jump, would it be possible to have the Timeless look be something other than 47's outfit, such as something closer to Rumia's outfit, and if so, could we have the same modifications applied to suits such as the Crimson Red Suit from the Trinity pack if we took the Canon Collection? Also, relatedly, would there be anything to help us find the outfit we were looking for if we took Canon Collection or On-Site Acquisition?

>>209704(me) the scenes for reference.

>>209431 I'm also pretty misanthropic and would like humanity to be replaced with anything better, but I try not to succumb to blind Shardtism and start advocating for outright genocide when possible. >>209440 The Seaborn as a whole can already do this and have done this in a couple bad ending timelines. They're just so disorganized that unless one or more of their Leviathans have awoken, they won't. >>209493 Not everyone is infected - you need to have a high level of Originium in your blood for Oripathy to be declared. And whilst we know Originium can successfully embed people, what can be pulled form it are only questionably the same people, with Endfield settling on them basically being clones of the originals who are distinct from them. Priestess can pull what are seemingly the originals, but that applies specifically to her and she's too much of a cunt to change Originium's specs to something less painful or awful and make it so others can perfectly unzip people from the Assimilated Universe so that area is a wash.

Ridiculous amount of both mindfuck perks and immortality/revival options in Arknights.

>>209703 The entire reason she fights off the humans in the first movie (she was neutral and willing to just watch and observe originally) is because Jake shares his memories of Earth with her and shows what humanity did to their own home planet.

>>209704 >>209710 Yes, but she's probably assuming that Earth did what she did at some point and the humans deliberately rebelled. She only had Jake's memories to go on. If she got more memories, enough to realize how silent Earth had been, would that have changed her response?

>>209711 i think if a literal mother nature tried to force humanity into living in permanent stone age ignorance, humanity would be 100% morally justified in killing it.

How did a high-level RDA scientist who was a very important part of a multi-billion dollar program intended for negotiating with aliens get fucking killed in a mugging?

>>209713 Bad luck.

>>209713 Happenstance.

>>209713 When even mundane CEOs can be killed by a guy ambushing them, a scientist isn't going to be much better situated.

>>209713 It is a cyberpunk dystopia after all.

>>209713 Shit happens. In real life and fiction.

>>209712 Yes, but that's because we are cosmic orphans compared to the na'vi. If you didn't had to suffer from diseases, war and could connect yourself with a fucking tree you would have a very different opinion on that.

>>209713 I've met actual CEO's, high ranking military officials and Oligarchs. Actual security is not nearly as big as you'd think it is outside special circumstances. Especially in this case where the scientists was likely neither famous, nor had enemies who'd benefit from his death specifically, he'd most certainly would only have access to security at work events.

>>209719 nta but the Na'vi aren't free from war, the fire tribe or whatever are literally tribal raiders living in a constant state of deprevation.

>>209544 >>209547 I'll add that Godcat herself was unknowingly created by another entity called the Devourer, who appears in EBF5. The Devourer being some entity from a higher dimension beyond the setting of the game, one obsessed with creating a world of pure perfect order where everything moves in accordance with their programming. The world of EBF is a program within a simulation designed to simulate such a universe, with Godcat and Akron being administrative functions within it (a line from the Devourer implies that it has also started, stopped, and reset the simulation several times over as it states that it gave Godcat and Akron "a lesser role in this iteration" in reference -to how they have little involvement in the plot of EBF5 beyond background lore). The presence of the Player (the actual real life one) acting through the party causes such frequent disorder in its perfect clockwork universe that the Devourer has spent pretty much all the games trying to excise their influence, with Akron and Godcat being two of its attempts to do so.

>>209721 Yes, because they lived in a place where a vulcan burned their tree of souls. All of the other tribes in the entire planet (which is big as fuck) live in complete peace and harmony.

>>209713 Security is expensive, unless you can bill the taxpayers for it or you have good reason to believe your life is at risk it's generally not worthwhile to engage in more than the bare minimum. Even just a single bodyguard who only works the equivalent of a 9-to-5 is going to cost a huge amount of money.

>>209723 >a vulcan burned their tree of souls I can't believe Spock would do this.

>>209723 nta, but Pandora is a moon, slightly smaller than Earth.

>>209713 Maybe it was one of those "muggings" where they shoot you in the back of the head multiple times, cover your body in carpet fibers, and then forget to take your wallet?

>>209720 There's videos of Jacob Rothschild just walking around at night. Would be me.

>>209728 >Would Wouldn't* Fuck

>>209721 The fire tribe/Mangkwan only live like that because their hometree got burnt down in a pyroclastic flow and Eywa could no longer communicate with of aid them. They also actively CHOSE to be that way and decided killing and despoiling the rest of Pandora despite other tribes being entirely willing to help each other out when asked, so they could have gone for help if they hadn't gone full retard on all of their neighbors.

>>209725 That's their default state.

>>209663 >But don't worry, destroying Yan is also on the list. Junior, you are courting death.

>>209714 >>209715 >>209716 This guy was employed by a megacorp that literally owns the world, was training for years as a diplomat for a hostile alien race and a survivalist in a hostile alien environment, one avatar body alone costs five billion dollars. This is "You live in a town that does not exist on any map" like Oak Ridge during the Manhattan Project

>>209713 Most actual CEOs have minimal security detail, either because they don't want to spend the money or think they can't be touched period.

>>209733 >one avatar body alone costs five billion dollars nta, but that is only in a non-canon video game. The second movie strongly implies the cost is only in the tens of millions.

>>209733 ...And? Just because the guy is important doesn't mean that RDA gave the guy an army of bodyguards or something. Even normal bodyguards sometimes fail to protect their client, and if the scientist went somewhere where it wasn't 100% curated, the chance of something going wrong is never zero. Also, while the RDA does have effective control of the world, they are hardly controlling every aspect constantly. We know a lot of the normal governments still exist, even if they have no relevance in the grand scheme of things.

>>209736 Exactly. RDA only got the monopoly on Pandora by abiding to a treaty that prohibits nuclear weapons.

>>209570 I think the Sarkaz are somewhat sympathetic, but anyone willing to unironically endorse their bullshit in the modern day is a suicidal retard.

>>209737 RDA has a monopoly on *all of space.* Literally everything. They do not need to abide by shit

>>209722 Oh hey, it's Shard-but-tentacly. He can't keep getting away with it.

>>209586 Not at all. At most, she might take some inspiration for it for some kind of underground network below her crust and maybe experiment with her own Titans but I don't see why it would end up being bad for anyone but the RDA.

>>209739 They still need to abide because they don't own earth. That's the entire reason they aren't bombing Pandora from orbit with tungsten rods.

>>209742 >That's the entire reason they aren't bombing Pandora from orbit with tungsten rods. No its because james cameron can't have his author's pets losing

>>209727 His name was Seth Rich. >>209728 The real security for the puppet masters isn't bodyguards but rather bought and paid for media that make very sure to squash and prevent any stories about them from going public. Like that time Newt Gingrich was on Fox news and brought up how George Soros was financing the campaigns of radical DA's that just let criminals go without prosecution and the immediate response from the hosts was to say that he shouldn't be talking about that or mentioning George Soros. Like they immediately knew exactly who he was talking about and then did their best to squash that entire line of conversation the moment he brought it up. That's what real "security" looks like for the ultra wealthy, when no one is even allowed to speak about you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk2_4tibW8c

I want to gather a harem of big blue catgirls, crush the RDA for sucking at their jobs, harvest samples of the key Pandora resources, and restore earth. Also conquer pandora, they can keep their trees (or at least most of them) but I need a source of big blue catgirls.

Hey Arknights anon, would creating someone using a subliminated template from Funeral of All Things make them valid for Inviolable Mandate?

>>209740 There are a lot of Order-obsessed tyrants like Shard around. You basically can't go a couple feet without stubbing your toe on one. Or several.

>>209745 The big blue catgirls wouldn't like you mining and conquering their planet.

>>209741 I just figured it would be a viable place to put the weird ecosystem that would also double up how much space it has available and could maybe allow for the creation of some weird hybrid megafauna

Could Steve from Minecraft mine the Unobtanium?

>>209748 They will be corrected.

>>209747 HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

>>209525 Nothing.

>>209738 Even after most of the Royal court gets sent to the shadow realm, fucking W of all people happens. Like seriously. W? I dont know who the fuck thought that was a good idea

>>209750 Unobtanium needs to be refined. So only if it is Steve with mods.

>>209747 And they always end up losing to a party of misfits lead by a teenager.

not trying to start an argument or look down on anyone, but what's the appeal of harems, anyways? maintaining relationships is a lot of effort, and it's not as though anyone really wants to have sex more than, what, once a day or so? is it just a status thing? wanting to be surrounded by beauty?

>>209742 >>209743 I thought that was more because they wanted to colonize the moon than because they couldn't. Even if it wasn't going to totally destroy Pandora's environment, they want some environment to exploit. >>209745 Be responsible and create your own big blue catgirls. We have many jumps to make it possible without having to get an active source, and the ethical considerations are far better in general.

>>209758 Colonization is only a motivation in the second movie.

>>209757 There's no appeal, it's a fetish. It's like asking why fat people like eating all the time.

>>209757 Honestly I never understood the appeal either. Like I have rolled for what my familiars and companions are and keep getting female but only 1 of those is an actual waifu. Multiple waifus will ruin your laifu.

>>209636 Reading it now, the mc really is a psycho huh?

>>209757 I sometimes believe that people who want harems really just want friends.

>>209750 Steve from Minecraft is literally Goku now.

>>209757 >>209761 I personally think the scheduling of it and the politics would get out of hand after like 3 waifus, any more than that and you're planning shit in advance and having to deal with hurt feelings and shit. Sure cloning perks could help but it feels like it loses its lustre when you're dependant on powers to hold a relationship

>>209763 Just like incest.

Say I went to Kids Next Door and opened my own arcade and food place in the vein of Chuck E. Cheese or something like that. And say I offer my own home made ice cream and "legally not soda" refreshments there. How long before Father and his goons try to mess with me?

>>209763 Perhaps, also titties.

>>209750 The real question is whether Mojang will let him and Alex make Unobtanium tools and armor, put Beacons on pyramids of Unobtanium Blocks, or somehow generate infinite Unobtanium Ingots by farming Unobtanium Golems.

>>209767 He wouldn't get the chance, the KND would assume this to be some sort of plot and blow up your business.

>>209755 I mean we can refine the bullshit that is netherite into armour and shit, no reason that the crafting table wouldn't turn like 3 bits of unobtanium into an unobtanium ingot

>>209757 I can understand why people would desire multiple partners, but the bit where people jerk themselves off about ruining the lives of others to get their waifus is what really baffles me. >>209763 That's likely to be the core motivation. But good luck getting them to admit that.

>>209767 Before you open the health inspectors and insurance board will have been bought off.

>>209755 To refine a material, it first needs to be collected. The question is can steve collect the material, not if he can refine it. >>209750 https://james-camerons-avatar.fandom.com/wiki/Unobtanium#Mining_Operations >Because of the intense magnetic fields associated with unobtanium deposits, mining operations are severely restricted as to the composition of mining tools and machinery. Tools cannot contain any ferromagnetic elements (cobalt, iron, nickel and some rare earths like gadolinium) because they would become so strongly magnetized that their moving parts would become immobile. The tools themselves would be drawn to the unobtanium deposits, where they would be permanently embedded. Non-ferromagnetic elements such as chromium and manganese become magnetic when combined with other elements, further limiting the use of steel alloys and other common materials. As a result, exotic and costly compounds (beryllium copper, tungsten carbide, etc.) must be employed. >The troubles do not end there. Whenever a conducting substance is moved in a magnetic field, an electric current is generated. This current can raise the temperature to damaging levels, interfere with the operation of electrical circuits, and interact with the magnetic field to produce mechanical forces. For example, a miner swinging a pick with a beryllium copper (a non-magnetic but electrically conducting metal alloy) head would feel as though he was moving the pick through molasses. The faster the pick moved, the more resistance it would encounter. Even if the pick could be swung quickly, induced eddy currents would heat it until it was too hot to hold. He's gotta use a netherite pickaxe. >Humans can not go anywhere near an unobtanium deposit. The magnetic fields nearby are so intense that even the slightest movement of a human body induces electrical currents that completely disrupt the functioning of the brain, nerves and muscles. Even 1000 feet away from the edge of an deposit, people feel strange tactile sensations and distortions in their vision and hearing if they run or try to throw things. They may also have disturbing thoughts or compulsions, irregular heartbeats, limb paralysis, muscle tremors, or vertigo and nausea. The biggest hurdle imo, no idea how to bypass this. >When unobtanium ore is pulled from the excavation, the process is hampered by the attraction between its entrained magnetic field and that of the remaining ore body. The excavated ore must be heated to its melting point (1516 degrees C) which then releases the trapped magnetic field. No idea how to get past that hurdle. Maybe game physics / perks just say "Yeah its in your inventory now" I suppose

>>209700 Are race perks like Embrace Eternity (from the Asari) exclusive to their race?

>>209771 All you need is to get 9 ingots to make a block then 4 blocks and a jack o lantern to make a golem, kill the golems and hope you get a spawn egg then put it in a spawner cage. Or trap some navi in a spawn trap so a unobtanium golem appears then falls into the lava pit below

>>209722 >>209740 It’s actually rather amusing - the player is a known and active cosmic force in the setting and is constantly aiding Matt and friends in their adventures and helps them get away with things they really shouldn’t have survived. There’s even one point in the game where they directly talk to you in order to tell you that they don’t want to fight this fucking thing, please reload the game and go somewhere else.

>>209773 Hank you for reminding me how much I hate bureaucracy

>>209700 Still cringe there's no reaper tech perk.

>>209774 Need to fashion a set of protective armour, either it has mining protection enchant to make it so you are immune to the effect or you have to make some armor out of like rubber trees or something.

>>209779 It is there a jump that even offers it?

What the fuck is Unobtanium even used for?

>>209774 >Netherite pickaxe You seem to have forgotten about diamond >Magnetic field The minecraft lightning rod might help, perhaps the Respiration enchantment on armour but yea that's kinda hard to deal with. >ore temp Lava bucket source block, it's pretty close to that temp I think. Although yea the inventory bullshit probably just grabs it

>>209767 Depends in part on where you are. Assuming you're on Sector V's turf, >>209770 could happen (Numbuh One is incredibly paranoid and easy to indoctrinate and notably relies on Numbuh Five to rein his worst impulses in, though she does not always succeed), or Father could notice an adult actually trying to make something fun for kids and step in to ruin your business because you are culturally expected to hate children the moment you stop being one in that universe and he will enforce that as hard as he can. Or you might end up being one of the adults Sector V actually respects, like Vin Moosk or their own parents. Or you could fall into the weird "worthy opponent" zone with one of them like how Numbuh Five and Stickybeard are.

>>209779 Mate, go out and reverse engineer it yourself. >>209782 Its a really good room temperature superconductor.

>>209782 Making incredibly stable and efficient room-temperature superconductors.

>>209782 Room-temperature superconductor of impossible efficiency, which is used for any type of interstellar tech. How do you think the ISV Venture Star works?

>>209782 Room temperature super conductor, one of the big obstacles to further tech advancement in the modern age.

>>209770 Honestly, you're missing a golden opportunity if your pizza place doesn't include evil animatronics who kidnap children to work in the pizza mines.

>>209783 >diamond Honestly I just skipped to the end because netherite doesn't melt in lava

>>209782 Room temperature auperconductor apparently. Which is perfect and ideal for prodicing a LOT of stuff, which is why its called unobtanium, its an engineering term for a fictional ideal material that matches your needs perfectly.

>>209776 Given the spawn eggs is from a perk I don't see why you wouldn't just go for the Minecraft Equivalent Exchange perk in this instance. A Na'vi villager farm would be pretty funny though

>>209789 Why not just make the animatronics do the work?

You know, considering the Avatar universe is hard-scifi and it has superconductors i'm impressed the humans aren't using railguns and lasers in their ships.

>>209793 Because they're kidnapping the kids to work the mines, keep up anon

>>209757 Historically harems were both advisors and confidants as well as being a way for a whoever had one to show off their wealth and status. The women in said harems meanwhile got to enjoy a life of luxury and often themselves came from influential families, serving to tie those families to whatever ruler / leader had the harem, and it was also a good way for securing the status and future of a harem member if she could produce a child for the guy in charge. Just as a real life example the birth of the Japanese emperor Hirohito was the first time the actual primary wife of the emperor produced the actual heir for the imperial throne for like a hundred and fifty years prior to his birth. The modern "isekai harem" idea of how harems worked is very new and very different from how they classically operated.

>>209793 Then who's left to kidnap children for the pizza mines?

>>209779 There is a Reaper tech perk, the 600CP Batarian perk. >>209775 Basically, yes. The actual perk is that you can sort of pull on others like an Ardat-Yakshi or the Reave ability does. It's not common to just biotically rape something / pull on biology in that way.

>>209793 Because that wouldn't make kids miserable (unless they start to sympathize with the animatronics and stage a breakout). No, really.

>>209798 Thank you for answering. I was just talking about the ability to have children as a lesbian or gay jumper.

>>209779 Also, the 600CP science perk or with the Capstone Booster gives you a foot in the door as well, but it won't be the outright studying Reaper tech that the Batarians get.

>>209794 Why? There is only one space power, so there is no need to militarize space at the moment. If you want to target something on the ground, just spend time getting some satellites to do it for you. >>209797 I only eat freshly baked pizza, not mined pizza. We all should have standards of quality here.

>>209782 Leaving aside what is already mentioned it also somehow allows for working matter/anti-matter engines (that's what the venture star class ships use) and faster than light communication.

>>209794 They use lasers to move the ships to .7c for the first leg of the journey. It's why they have the giant mirror solar sales. >Railgun One of the games had a Nail Gun which could have been that, it looks kinda like one but might be pneumatic. They do have sound cannons though

>>209792 Honestly I mod minecraft so much I didnt even remember spawn eggs was a mod

>>209800 I misread what you said. A Human female who takes it could have children. Consider yourself genetically enhanced.

>>209802 >Eats synthetic pizza >"standards" Ew.

Besides being a vampire or an elf, what other races lend themselves to being a 1000+ year old shota/loli jumper?

>>209802 >want to target something on the ground, just spend time getting some satellites to do it for you Drop a rod from orbit would also work and be pretty cheap. Or do the engine exhaust flame thrower and delete a dozen grid squares >>209805 The eggs are in the base game but are creative only, or console commands iirc. I've not played in a solid 10 years so it might've changed

>>209808 Dragon, Demon, Angel, Fae, Eldritch Abomination and finally Yokai

>>209800 not ddanon but Fafnir over on reddit recently made a jump for Pellucidar (a really old story about a hollow-earth hyperboria style world written by the same guy that wrote Tarzan, and canonically Tarzan appears in said story). There's a perk in there that lets you come up with methods to let any species produce asexually without causing any genetic problems or other potential issues. It's based on how the evil telepathic flying dinosaur people in the Hollow Earth figured out the same process for their own people (the "great secret" as it's called in setting) and as result basically they killed off all the men of their species so there's only women left. Unfortunately they're ugly flying dinosaurs and not hot monster-girls and thus must be exterminated.

>>209802 I didn't mean spaceships, i meant the ships they use in Pandora.

>>209808 Lich

>>209757 >I like women. >Why not have a bunch of women? But yeah, the realities of a harem aren't pleasant. Though there's plenty of ways to manage things as a jumper.

>>209812 The RDA is a corporation so I'm going to go out on a limb and assume they didn't use that stuff because they considered it to be too expensive and that what they had already was good enough. Which in fairness it really *should* have been good enough if it wasn't for nature-mommy Ewya metaphorically deus-ex-machina'ing shit for the Na'vi all the time.

>>209812 The boats? Why bother when they're not really needed, those big as fuck chain guns they have are probably much cheaper, need less maintenance and are easy to produce. Also there's nothing that can really stand against their basic guns, the boats got fucked mostly from below and the harpoons were doing fine

>>209807 Where the hell are you getting synthetic pizza? I freshly grow and raise all the necessary ingredients for my pizza empire. Every ingredient is of the highest quality, tended to by hordes of robots who are dedicated to the task. Only then is the food good enough for my customers. In the mines, you get what you get. >>209812 Normal ships, I see. In case of railguns, its most likely because its expensive to replace barrels constantly, and a normal gun is good enough for what you need. In the case of lasers, even if the superconductor would help, heat would still be a massive issue. Regardless, why change when you have perfectly serviceable guns? This isn't some game where you suddenly get a tech-up when you reach a certain point; you need to have an actual reason to upgrade your equipment. For the most part, ordinary bullets were doing fine.

>>209809 >Or do the engine exhaust flame thrower and delete a dozen grid squares Reminder we have three confirmed landings and up to seven more possible landings. There's a bunch more Bridgeheads out there printing out C21 Dragons like they're playing supcom

>>209772 >but the bit where people jerk themselves off about ruining the lives of others to get their waifus is what really baffles me. It's a power fantasy, pure and simple. >>209796 >The modern "isekai harem" idea of how harems worked is very new and very different from how they classically operated. No, they're just following the same rules setup in The Tale of Genji. Where the girls don't care if they're satisfying their lover's sexual "needs", just along as they're receiving attention. In fact, that's how all the womanizers of the 19th and 20th century made they're living, because they gave desperate, lonely, or rejected housewives a smidge of attention and watched as the girl gave him the world. >>209815 >The RDA is a corporation That's another problem I have with majority of these "dystopian future" stories. If you already "own and rule" everything, then who exactly is your customer that you're making money off of? And who and what are you then going to be spending the money on when you already own everything?

Post comfy builds

>>209812 What would they use a railgun against that their existing guns, autocannons and missiles couldn't already handle? Ship mounted railguns presumably are only good for either direct fire missions, where there's nothing really on pandora to justify it, or indirect fire missiles which probably also isn't worth it considering there's not really anything important enough to justify it. Plus you've got to consider that the ships had heli-pads for their aerial units, and the factory ship was big enough for a dragon gunship, all of which could easily handle any sort of precision long-range attack on their own.

>>209794 its actually explained in the side novel that they are used on earth, but that the RDA Mercenaries they have prefer traditional weaponry which they have much more experience with. >RDA's private security force prefers sturdy, simple weapons that have endured decades of use on Earth. Indeed, most of the current equipment on Pandora is third generation, Earth-issue weaponry. Instead of the latest iterations of ferromagnetic weaponry now found on Earth, the RDA relies upon traditional bullet casings with explosive charges.

>>209811 Stellaris has perks / traits like that. Budding is one of them. Some generic lewd Jumps also let you reproduce via yuri.

>>209819 >That's another problem I have with majority of these "dystopian future" stories. If you already "own and rule" everything, then who exactly is your customer that you're making money off of? And who and what are you then going to be spending the money on when you already own everything? I think to some extent, people are in denial about how powerful megacorps could ever get. Once a corporation has to start worrying about actually doing unprofitable expendatures, they generally try to offload those costs to governments to avoid it. At the point of becoming a megacorp, you basically lose that option, as you essentially have to rule a bunch of territory outright. >>209824 Huh. Neat.

>>209824 And people say the Avatar universe has shitty worldbuilding.

>>209824 I wonder how long Pandora would last if humans started using nukes.

>>209824 Remember that the RDA has self-repairing hull material that just isn't used on pandora due to the extreme EM fields

>>209828 See below video, then take into account how much easier a couple hundred nukes would be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-HbsUktdKU

>>209825 Yeah but the thing I was mentioning let you figure out how to apply the process to any race and wasn't just a personal thing or something limited exclusively to a custom-made race.

>>209828 Nukes are the exact type of weapon that would destroy Unobtanium. The RDA wouldn't use them even if they could.

>>209828 >I wonder how long this coughing baby would last if we finally used our hydrogen bombs

>>209827 NTA, but while the worldbuilding can list every single part of a spaceship the actual story has plotholes big enough to fly that spaceship through them

>>209757 I rarely have harems, but the chains I HAVE had harems in, the appeal was a mix of 'options' and 'hey, wouldn't it be hot to have women catfight/sexfight over Jumper?' Having multiple women with different appeals, like 'Tits vs Ass' or 'Holy-ish vs Demonic-ish' or even similar appeals like 'MILF vs MILF' all competing for the spot of top waifu, ranks changing all the time as rivals win one day then lose the next, all for Jumper's enjoyment, does sound hot. Does this count as too NSFW? I'm just trying to explain the appeal of it to me.

>>209832 >Nukes are the exact type of weapon that would destroy Unobtanium Would they though?

>>209826 >they generally try to offload those costs to governments to avoid it But here's the irony, at least in the real world, mega corps only exist BECAUSE of the government regulating industries to the point that the mega corp can exist. And it even gets to the point that the government is handing out endless money and contracts to said mega corp just so that they can survive. So how do you "offload" those tasks to the government that only gave you that power in the first place so that they wouldn't have to do it? It's M.A.D..

>>209837 Here in Brazil we have an entire megacorp that only exists so it can give money to the corrupt ruling party that rules the country.

>>209830 Man. I genuinely have to wonder what sort of comical plot armor the Na'vi have to get any sort of victory out.

>>209836 >I wonder how long this coughing baby would last if we finally used our hydrogen bombs²

>>209840 >no argument

>>209839 I do find it funny that the Humans escalate each new movie but the Na'vi uses the exact same arsenal for 20 years, including the Eywa ex machina that saves them at the end of the movie. I've read that the actual plot of the third movie was supposed to be about a terraforming technology called BRIDGEHEAD that would create the flux vortices from the third movie, but James Cameron cut these scenes to hold them for a fourth movie instead. That's why the plot of the third movie is just way of the water 2

>>209839 You don't have to wonder, you can just watch the movies and see the comical plot armor

>>209840 Hey, that was my line. How dare you? In all seriousness, I suspect that the main issue with nuking the planet isn't destroying unobtanium (its underground enough to be relatively unaffected), but it makes mining for it a hell of a lot more complicated.

>>209839 To be fair the humans in that video also have some fucking plot armour, they should be dying horribly from the sheer temperature of the ground under those engines, cooked while descending the cable or be melting under the sheer amount of radiation produced by a anti-matter based fusion torch. The Na'vi are just a metaphor for why imperialistic colonialism is bad in movies so have to be the 'good' guys. It's why if you read the wiki page you get them out to being these super enlightened people >Despite being a mostly peaceful race, conflict in and between clans is not unheard of in Na'vi society. War is rare but does occur, typically when a clan is pushed into the territory of another due to external causes, rather than a purposeful invasion. War between Na'vi is characterized by brief periods of intense battle followed immediately by discussion, negotiations, and strives toward a peaceful solution. Excessive or unnecessary death and bloodshed are never reported, as that is not the goal.[4] Additionally, the Mangkwan clan are known to be raiders who attack and raid other clans during their travels.[30]Conflict within clans is also atypical and usually resolved quickly through peaceful means, or by ceremonial combat (fpeio). However, if a solution cannot be reached for an especially divisive issue, First Blood may be invoked: a non-lethal combat ceremony. Despite the goal of the ritual not being to kill one's opponent, First Blood is considered especially dangerous, as the outcome of the agreement is permanently binding and cannot be negotiated after the ritual's completion.

>>209843 That would involve watching the movies, which I don't want to do. Besides the fact that watching movies gives me a migraine, I don't want to subject myself to that level of stupidity.

>>209820 Yay build!

>>209836 Did you know a lot of metal used in medical equipment is actually salvage steel from ship wrecks due to contamination from radiation? Even just the few nukes we have set off have saturated the air to a noticable degree, and when forging new steel it gets contaminated even to this day. I know this because I work in the maritime industry. It sounds crazy, but it may well be the case that detonating nukes would contaminate the super material.

>>209848 That's actually rather insightful and quite interesting to learn. Here's an alternative to nukes. How about glassing the surface of the planet with lasers-which don't have radioactive fallout, and the ships were ALREADY doing just to land? It wouldn't dig very deep into the planet, just scorch the surface, leaving the unobtanium completely fine and getting rid of all the annoying natives.

>>209848 Low-background steel hasn't been necessary excepting the most sensitive use cases (e.g. sensor equipment on spacecraft) since 2008

>>209849 I feel like every time this comes up the conclusion eventually leads to annihilating both the humans and the xenos and replacing them with something less retarded.

>>209850 My point is that it's a real consideration that comes up.

>>209851 Nah I'm team human because fuck that other tribe

>>209851 I mean, I'm just looking at this and wondering why the humans are even allowing the natives to push them around at all. Humanity has the technology to force an instant, effortless, costless victory for their side. Why are they not using it?

>>209849 >Here's an alternative to nukes They use anti-matter based fusion torches for thrust in their ships, meaning they have industrial anti-matter production. No reason not to use that for maximum effect. Or just drop a dozen asteroids onto the planet or a couple unobtanium rods and skip any real effort

>>209854 >Why are they not using it? James Cameron said so

>>209849 Throw a rock at it. Makes mining easier, too.

>>209855 >Or just drop [...] a couple unobtanium rods This is the exact opposite of their mission

So, if you remove all the mega-corps and politicians and "thems" that make the world shitty, are humans fundamentally good?

>>209858 Can just collect it again after, beside I figure the magnetic attraction it has to the planet would just make it more dangerous. I mean just remember the sheer size of their drilling machine in the first movie. There's no reason they wouldn't have a massive fucking stockpile of it, it's only rare to Earth afterall, it's found in random rocks on Pandora.

>>209859 No we'd just find other reasons to kill each other. Might kill each other over reasons not to kill each other. Or what to do once we've killed each other. Or over a random nice looking rock. Or a stick. Or a what a cloud looks like.

>>209859 >"thems" I think you mean (((them)))

>>209851 Some people really just have a murderboner for the Navi. Like, don't get me wrong, Avatar is one of the more meh sci-fi stories I can think of, but the outright hatred of the cats is kind of overkill. >>209854 They are trying to play nice for PR reasons. They also were never quite away on how strong the Navi really were, and tried pushing their luck when they were the weaker party on the planet. >>209859 As a matter of philosophy, I believe humans are fundamentally good. However, the rest of the world makes us hard and cynical, and that leads to problems down the line. Killing and destroying a bunch of things may temporarily reduce the amount of evil, but it will never end the issue unless you sit down and actually let people remain hopeful. Also, something about arbitary tribalism, but I don't want to get to off-topic here.

>>209859 Define Human.

>>209863 >believe humans are fundamentally good >Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost

>>209863 >but the outright hatred of the cats is kind of overkill. Its because every movie and piece of lore says "Love them! They're perfect! They can do no wrong! Look at how good they are!" Don't tell me you've never hated an author's pet.

>>209859 I believe humans are fundamentally neutral, and until they develop enough to satisfy their desires they will always be at the mercy of their biological impulses.

I believe Humans are simply unsuited to the environment we have created.

>>209859 Everything is fundamentally good. The only reason anything is bad is because we fall to sin

>>209868 8 hour work days at a desk five days a week for your entire life is about as unnatural as it gets

>>209865 Good quote, and couldn't agree with it more. >>209867 I am generally annoyed by them, but being annoyed at something does not mean you should get a genocidal hatred of them.

>>209859 If you had ever visited a 3rd world country (or even 2nd world outside the tourist areas) you would not need to ask this question. A huge portion of humanity is literally too stupid to understand morality and that actions taken in the present can have consequences in the future.

I have nothing against Na'vi. I'm simply confused how humanity could logically lose in this situation. Also Na'vi sexo.

>>209873 Off model Navi are definitely sexo. The snout fixes it. Sauce?

>>209853 Calling the RDA team human is an insult to humanity. It's basically saying that we as a species are an evolutionary dead end because after this much time, the species progressively grew less intelligent. >>209854 Going by what I have learned over the past rounds of Avatar discussion, they're in this war because they want the war. It's like asking why America didn't just drop seven nukes across the entirety of Vietnam to end the war. From an American perspective it would have been an effortless and costless victory, but they needed to send the boys. RDA doesn't need Pandora or the Unobtanium anymore. But they have nothing better to do so they might as well sustain operations and put it on the accounting books as a R&D expense for tax write offs and drive share prices up.

>>209868 Wait until we hook everyone to masturbation machines and iv drips of cocaine for maximum pleasure.

>>209876 >It's like asking why America didn't just drop seven nukes across the entirety of Vietnam to end the war. From an American perspective it would have been an effortless and costless victory You mixing up the korean and vietnam war?

>>209874 How about a bit of "colonialism"? >>209875 >spoiler Random pic I found on rule34. Here. [spoiler]>https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=15815590&%5B%2Fspoiler%5D=

>>209879 Dammit. Link didn't spoiler properly. Ah well. No harm done really.

>>209878 Both of them would have been the same from the perspective of a modern American. The point isn't that the statement is actually true, it's that the home front simply would not have cared either way because they're too far removed from the actual conflict to care. That's the same thing when it comes to the RDA and Pandora, except even more pronounced since Pandora is light years away.

>>209859 No.

>>209881 Oh you're just making shit up, got it

>>209871 ...I just realized that I meant to link >>209866 for the second. Goddammit.

>>209876 >It's basically saying that we as a species are an evolutionary dead end because after this much time, the species progressively grew less intelligent. NTA but. I'm just gonna vaguely gesture at the world right now. Humans are stupid as fuck.

>>209879 Yeah, that's good shit.

>>209876 Be careful for what you wish for. The moment we develop genetic engineering is the moment the entire human race becomes a commodity for our elites.

>>209887 >implying we're not already there

>>209887 >The moment we develop genetic engineering is the moment the entire human race becomes a commodity for our elites. Don't need genetic engineering for that. China has already turned people into commodities for organ farming. Doesn't even have to be a Chinese national for them to be put on the market. Then there are the breeding markets that are used for the elites to have the children they desire without the labour. Then there's the drug and viral testing that goes on with human test subjects. The list goes on.

>>209845 It’s kind of funny how the fire tribe in 3 exists purely to shit on the idea of all the Na’vi being enlightened pure people

>>209887 China has already gene edited some babies to be resist to disease. Initially, they arrested the guy, but they let him go uncharged. They're going to win the Human Bowl.

>>209859 You need to fundamentally alter the world and basic human nature to prevent us from immediately backsliding into self-centered and self-destructive philosophies and actions. And at that point you may as well replace humanity entirely.

James Cameron is hack and everyone is retarded for liking him

>Get stuck on a chain >Sift through a bunch of jumps to see if I gain inspiration to continue >The only things my muse comes up with are ways to restart my chain Why am I like this? At least if i do restart my chain there's a bunch of new jump to put at the start

>>209901 >said a christopher nolan fan.

>>209901 BRAVE and BOLD statement

>>209901 Alita was good.

>>209887 We've long since crossed that bridge. The only way is down.

>>209902 Maybe you just need to stick to short chains. Not everyone is cut out for making a chain that is hundreds of jumps long.

>>209897 I thought you were the one who made the jump. My apologies.

>>209901 Him driving the helicopter under that bridge in Terminator was kino, but Avatar has had no cultural impact despite their success.

>>209859 Like any other animal, we can be altruistic and welcoming, snappish and territorial, outright invasive, or anything else. To ask if humans are fundamentally good or evil is no different from asking that question of crows or ants or pangolins. Rousseau and Hobbes can have their opinions, but the question of human nature they seek to answer is fundamentally a moot one. Humans, like everything else, are just kind of here, and will continue to be here until they cease to successfully make babies. Our pattern-seeking brains will never fully accept this, we'll always want a moral narrative that ascribes more meaning to all of this than there actually is, but that's life.

>>209908 I think Argent made it

>>209903 >>209909 You call me Alog and Detractor

>Undertale Yellow in the drive Ayo?

>>209914 Yep, he came back.

>>209907 The chain wasn't that long, I just kinda lost fuel, and have this craving for restarting it again for some reason. Maybe if I plan my first 10 jumps the results could be better

>>209914 That's shit woke

>>209859 People aren't fundamentally good, both because what's considered 'good' is subjective and that there's always going to be a portion of the population that won't align with the values of the society they're raised in.

>>209918 Uh oh, Postmodernist alert

>>209893 >>209908 >>209912 I did in fact make the jump. And the build is perfectly survivable. It's actually really difficult to chianfail in STP unless you're intentionally going for it or buy into the Narrator's hoopla enough to just sit there and no longer do or think anything forever. The bigger question is what happens once the Shifting Mound is free, since depending on the Vessels you encounter, her personality can be altered in little ways to make her more or less sympathetic to the plight of mortal life.

>>209899 They're pretty neat, and now I can embark in my next autistic project for jumpchain.

>>209920 Oh hey, just remembered. Did you ever do that "Pristine Cut" update?

>>209835 don't feel guilty, this general veers into fetish talk pretty regularly and thanks for the explanation. i've never really been a sex-driven person so it's interesting to hear people's takes. >>209907 this tbdesu. i'd rather engage with a couple dozen settings i really care about than hundreds with which i have a cursory familiarity. >>209917 sorry :(

>>209922 It is in my drive, unfinished. I intended to get back to it, but Pristine Cut came out in the middle of the worst uni semester I've ever had and I had other projects I wanted to work on so it got pushed to the side. I'll probably tinker with it a little after KoH and inbetween Ocean Game, but no promises.

>>209920 Is the Narrator ending even a chainfail since you would just sit there and live until the 10 years are up?

>>209923 James Cameron is from a rare breed of directors who like empowered women because they link it makes them more sexy, like joss whedon. They aren't woke in the classical sense.

>>209912 Much obliged. >>209920 Sweet. Honestly the real problems will come from Gungrave's whole "every time you die you get stronger" bit from an earlier build, since I'd be trying to help the Princess each time. Can I ask how a Hero's Journey works outside of STP?

>>209926 It's mentioned IIRC that the Hero's body starts to fade gradually during that ending the longer they sit there - so I genuinely think that even if it's not necessarily "death", that ending basically has TLQ's consciousness start fading out both form a lack of stimulation and unironicslly believing he has fulfilled his 'purpose'.

>>209924 Did you ever add the note for Kanako?

>>209925 Fair's fair.

I'm laying here working on Monster Musume, and I don't believe this translation is correct. If this is true, roughly 1 in 5 people in Japan are AT LEAST centaurs. This has to be a translation error.

>>209932 Yep for sure it s error. Maybe they meant fans of centaurs/horses?

>>209929 I guess that helps the theory that the Hero still has some parts of 'change' from the Princess, and his new world wouldn't be fully void of it.

>>209932 Japan REALLY loves their horses.

>>209930 it's in the current version of the doc, but i wanna wait for more feedback/critique before pushing out a new release. if i don't hear anything for like a week then i'll just release it with the kanako addition lol.

>>209918 Your argument is just dodging the question.

>>209936 >Pic Hope she enjoys her new game!

>>209937 Is it "dodging" if the question itself is flawed? It's like asking "is the sky red, or is it green?"

Good morning my nikkas

Did you guys know that nukes do not actually cause nuclear fallout? It's true. The way that a nuke is designed, fallout is not actually a part of the process. In order for a nuclear explosion to take place there are series of processes that the bomb has to follow in order for it to get to the actual point of splitting the atom and detonating. And if it misses even one of those processes, or even detonates "early", the bomb just becomes your average "dirty bomb", with "fallout" that only encompasses a couple of square miles at worst. If it actually completes all the processes and detonates, what it does is that it sets off an explosion about 1900 feet in the air and shockwave that can wipe out a city. But that's it. There is no fallout when this occurs, just destruction, and we know this because that's exactly what happened when we bombed Japan, and victims hundreds of feet from the center of it that survived into this century. That being said, there is ONE type of nuclear bomb that does cause fallout, and these are know as "groundbursts". But here's the trade-off, those are used specifically for the purposes of attacking undeground facilities, and so have to strike the ground, sucking in all the Earth around it, and shooting the irradiated dirt up into the air. But as you can probably tell, (1) this is pointless as it makes everything in the surrounding area unlivable (At least for the next week, not for centuries like Pedowood would lead you to believe), (2) has a reduced surrounding impact (Outside of the radiation) because of the ground absorbing most of he blast and (3) has been made obsolete in the wake of military toys like bunker busters (Like that Cheetoh Man used on Iran a couple months back) and Project Thor. >>209848 >Did you know a lot of metal used in medical equipment is actually salvage steel from ship wrecks That's bullshit and you know it. All they need is some Grade A silver, which has been and still is widely used in medical treatements because silver is a self-santizing metal.

>>209928 >Can I ask how a Hero's Journey works outside of STP? Basically as it says on the tin; you die and can revive an arbitrary number of times either sometime before the choice that gets you violently killed happens or near the start of your journey that culminates in that choice depending on how you fanwank it. There's no real limit to how many times the Hero can die in the Construct due to its nature, but I ASSUME that outside of it and without taking TLQ/TSM options, there will probably be a cut-off point. If you assume it works in the manner it does in-game (cycling you to a new universe each time you die), then in non-infinite or explicitly finite settings with a limited number of realities, you'll probably run out of places to shift to even if it takes a ridiculously long time. But again, fanwank responsibly.

>>209940 ITS EVENING RIC

>>209940 Who you calling a nikka? You ain't my nikka. You a nikker.

>>209940 Hi, buddy

>>209941 >That's bullshit and you know it. Everyone knows it, he just dodged it when pointed out otherwise

>>209940 Welcome back to the realm of the living.

>>209937 The implied answer is 'No, people aren't fundamentally good.' >>209940 Congrats on another morning.

>>209705 >In the Hitman jump, would it be possible to have the Timeless look be something other than 47's outfit, such as something closer to Rumia's outfit, and if so, could we have the same modifications applied to suits such as the Crimson Red Suit from the Trinity pack if we took the Canon Collection? I can't be bothered to update the text in the Jump to reflect this, but sure, go for it. >Also, relatedly, would there be anything to help us find the outfit we were looking for if we took Canon Collection or On-Site Acquisition? Not really, considering that this isn't limited to disguises that appear in-game. >>209762 Completely. I really do respect it for how much the series commits to it. Kim really doesn't display a single positive trait throughout the whole story.

>>209940 Howdy, Sensei!

>>209940 You're Brazilian, right? Do either of these say 30 million people in the "country"?

Help me here guys, i need some drawback ideas for my Batman Forever jump.

>>209951 It says 30 million centaurs watching all over the country.

>>209916 >pic Why is Nitocris doing that to her blanket people?

>>209940 Good Morning Land-Fish

>>209951 I don't live in brazil. Truthfully speaking, I've never been there. >>209950 >>209948 >>209948 >>209947 Hi anons >>209945 Hi psycho >>209943 I had to go back to sleep after waking up to spit blood.

>>209952 Bat Nipples - +100 Everything you wear shows your nipples protruding, very disrespectful.

>>209951 That begs the question, how many monster girls are there in total?

>>209954 She's making teruterubouzus to try and make the rain go away. This also makes it look like she's hanging the Medjeds. Presumably the artist was making this exact joke.

>>209957 Already did that before you said.

>>209951 i speak enough spanish to tell you that yes "treinta millones de espectadores... alrededor del pais" is indeed 30,000,000 in the country. wild.

>>209958 I'm looking for other translations still, but the actual answer's gonna be a fucking lot. To be fair, centaurs are one of the only species we see with males, but they're also in Europe. That easily means there's more than 30 million in the world of just centaurs. >>209961 Christ.

>>209859 >are humans fundamentally good? No because we're imperfect beings by the very nature of being human. That's the one universal truth every single philosphy and religion can agree on. Where things diverge is how to progress. >>209876 >It's like asking why America didn't just drop seven nukes across the entirety of Vietnam to end the war. Because it wasn't suppose to be a war, it was a police action. In fact, if you want to see an example where the generals DID want to use the nukes, look at MacArthur during the Korean War. He wanted to nuke the Norks and the PLA to kingdom come, but Truman and the U.N. got pissy about it. Also we were winning the Vietnam War, and about to declare victory before the Commie-cocksucker that was Walter Cronkite began blasting across the airwaes about how Americans were being "slaughtered" and how "evil" we were during a war where the enemy was using children as meatshields and soldiers.

>>209960 Bat Puns - +100 or +200 You will be unable to escape a constant deluge of 'humor" that makes even the worst dad jokes seem funny as the people around you seem to be almost obligated to make terrible puns, usually themed to whoever they are or whatever they're doing. For an extra +100cp yo find you are also constantly making terrible "jokes" as well. At least you'll fit in?

>>209953 Thanks.

>>209956 >I had to go back to sleep after waking up to spit blood. Did you take the slight white rum, honey and lime like I said? It sounds like that cold is still hard on your lungs

>>209963 Don't bother with that second anon, he's an idiot who has no idea what he's talking about

>>209962 So there might genuinely be as many monster girls as there are males in Japan.

>>209956 >I don't live in brazil. Truthfully speaking, I've never been there. You have been lying all that time? And to think I wanted to give you money. You monster. Hope your cold gets worse.

>>209969 I don't think he ever said he lives in Brazil, he just never said he didn't when it came up. In fact I'm pretty sure he has said he doesn't live in Brazil. before a least a few times.

>>209962 Do you have the japanese wording? Some translations, especially not official ones, are just translated from english so the mistake might follow. Feels like worldwide would make more sense.

>>209968 I'm going through other websites, and I found a different one. I don't know what to believe. Even 30 million in the world, or rather 30 million just watching a livestream, seems like a lot.

>>209971 Both the portuguese and spanish translation says the exact same things, i must add.

>>209972 It's still more reasonable than 30 million in japan. Frankly it's actually totally reasonable for there to be 30 million centaurs. Compared to 7-8 billion humans, 30 million spread out across the world/in special locations is a drop in the bucket.

>>209972 Brazil has a population of 215 million. And 30 million centaurs around the world feels honestly like a lowball. >>209969 I haven't lied even once in 32 years >>209966 Fuck this gay earth

>>209932 The long the series goes on and the more we learn about how many of them there are, the more outlandish it becomes that the world's governments were able to keep the existence of monsters a secret from the general public.

As an aside, outside the Moon Cell, BB (under the self-induced nerfs she has at Chaldea) can utilize Imaginary Number Space to travel backwards or forwards in time by up to five years. The part of the Counter Force devoted to permanently erasing conventional time travelers from existence apparently can’t touch her. She can probably go farther utilizing her full power or the Moon Cell, but then runs into Quantum Time Locks locking perceived (note, events that happen which humans are broadly unaware of might be alters or even behind QTLs). With that PSA, out of the way, I think I’m gonna take advantage of this once I get to FGO to fuck over Marsbars.

>>209978 >locking perceived (…). -locking perceived (…) history in place.

>>209978 >The part of the Counter Force devoted to permanently erasing conventional time travelers from existence apparently can’t touch her The counter force doesn't erase you for just time travelling, it's when you try to change humanity's direction it's corrective strength opposes you, and without great resources erase the changes via timelocks. As CHALDEAS is a reflection of the earth ut would do the same if you used time travel against it, without something on the scale of a beast to fixate the change (maybe less power is needed, I mentioned a beast because it's what Manaka canonically planned to use to beat the counter force).

>>209981 (me) Not saying it's impossible, you can work around limitations, just suggesting to take in considerations the limits.

>>209932 >>209972 Maybe he's just exagerating.

>>209978 >The part of the Counter Force devoted to permanently erasing conventional time travelers from existence apparently can’t touch her. This is true for powerful divine beings in general, Divine Spirits do it all the time. History literally has a powerlevel in Fate. Liz being able to travel between parallel worlds specifically because Velber corruption reinforced her to withstand the disintegrating effects is an actual plot point in Extella.

>>209978 >Imaginary Number Space I’d ask what that is in Fate, but I suspect I’d come away more confused then before.

>The Invisible Man jump What are the odds two 1897 novels would be made into jumps by two separate people at the same time?

>>209985 https://typemoon.fandom.com/wiki/Imaginary_Number_Space It's a multidimensional space within the interior of the Earth that contains various possibilities (including what many would consider fantasies and myths) due to Schrodinger's Box shit. Look, you know the Dirac Sea that Leliel sent Shinji into? This is Nasu's even more chuuni version of that. Mages can implement it in magecraft as basically an edgy pocket dimension, or potentially to create shadowy familiars that disintegrate stuff as Sakura did in Heaven's Feel while supercharged with mana.

In the recent Dracula jump is the Llamarcia companion option based on an existing character or is she purely OC?

>>209981 Eh. It’s explicit that even when you rayshift, if your existence isn’t being confirmed by an external observer you get erased from existence. Physically time traveling is worse, which is why Marisbury abandoned the plans for the Shadowborder. Goetia fixed the singularities in place with Holy Grails, which the corrective force couldn’t erase.

>>209986 It is a very fun coincidence, I'll admit. Out of curiosity, any other pieces of classic literature you are interested in?

>>209988 Pretty sure she's oc like the overpowered companion in 06. "stronger than the big bad, likes you."

>>209988 She's based on Carmilla, the titular character of the novel which inspired Dracula. Carmilla always rearranges her name because in the Carmilla universe vampires have severe autism (though I accidentally gave her name an extra a). Her being the inspiration for Dracula is why she owns him

>>209989 Fair, from my understanding that was more because if the nature of rayshuft itself, rather than time travel as a whole, considering you can also just be altered if the data confirmed isn't correct, from what I remember. Also yes, I know that Goetia fixed the singularities through grail, but that's part of the corrective force stopping you from changing history rather than just stopping timetravels.

>>209990 Not particularly. I was mostly interested in Dracula because I always liked vampires

>>209992 >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaHWaqJwYQ0

>>209981 >The counter force doesn't erase you for just time travelling This is a complicated subject because history DOES have a corrective force, to the extent that being recognised by the World as a Phantasmal Beast and fundamentally having what you are altered was recognised as a danger by Chaldea early in FGO; this is why rayshifting with it's autistic mechanics and compatibility is the way it is. It's also why the finale of part 2 explains being an everyday averageman is literally the reason why Guda has extreme rayshift compatibility-all of history registers him as "some dude" who can be in the background of everywhere, greatly lessening the corrective force for him. It's just not always clear when it's Alaya, when it's Gaia, and when it's simply the fundamental laws of time and space being fucking weird. But even, say, PHH Morgan fucking disintegrated herself sending info back to Tonelico in a history where humans were never in control.

>>209987 So basically a location outside of reality that contains all things and none. It reminds me of the description of The Artful Temple That Is Not in Exalted Infernals. >Unlike the many other Yozis, Oramus has no temples in the Demon City beyond the great prison-temple built atop his slumbering form. Thus, this temple cannot exist despite, its meticulously artful design and wondrously magnificence the likes of which seem impossible to ever match in other architecture. >And in truth, this is correct. For this temple exists Beyond, the place of things which are cast out and never existed at all. All around it are floating worldscapes; upside-down places, angled places, in-and-out places. Existence seems to have the quality of a cube winding in toward a central locus, and all through the air floated things unguessed and never before seen. >Here, in these alien vistas beyond perception, which are an infinite forge of the impossible that stirred the very Wyld into forms and patterns by the movement of your thoughts, you may create and think on those things deemed impossible by all. Still, caution is for the wise, for while you are protected by reality within the walls of this temple, the outside is not so kind and should you get lost behind babbling brooks of names… you might find that you never really existed at all.

>>209994 >rather than time travel as a whole A similar phenomena happened in Extella too; Nameless was fucked up from travelling between worlds to stay with his Hakuno, and as mentioned earlier Velber specifically have some kind of time travel damage-proof effect on the particles they corrupt other beings with.

>>209987 It’s also kinda weird because the way it’s described in places, Imaginary Number Space is part of the Reverse Side of the World…but the Moon Cell also has/is connected to Imaginary Number Space, which would seem to contradict Extella’s assertion that the Moon Cell can’t observe either the Reverse or whatever specific higher dimensional space divine spirits reside in.

>>209997 Yes, but as I already mentioned that's more the rayshift itself being flawed than the corrective force of history stopping you, for example Morgan specifically said that she had to kill herself because rayshifting without the coffin can send only informations, not herself, so she rayshifted her knowledge to her lostbelt version.

>>209998 That is basically it except entirely localised to Earth and less...myth logic, more specifically limited to the planet's sphere of influence yes. It is a specific locus of fantasy phenomena rather than a universal one, with there explicitly being other realms of existence with DIFFERENTLY impossible-by-regular-physics rules such as the Outer Universe the Outer Gods originate from, and apparently for the most part have to use Imaginary Numbers Space as a medium to even pass through to the planet proper.
