That's supposed to be for bad posts that are breaking the rules though. But true, a mod should see at some point.
Considering the rules say "report your own posts if you accidentally double post, don't worry you're not gonna be punished", I don't think it's just for bad posts and necessarily for stuff that should be punishable. Besides, your duplicate topic is technically just as bad as an accidental bad post (which is not really bad at all), so yeah. Posting about it multiple times in a topic going "oh man this should be merged" instead of reporting and delivering the message via the report system won't really do anything except clutter the topic with off-topic posts.
Speaking of getting back on topic, legendary Batta the Beast when? Anyways, might go for her. Not every day you get a dual-wielding weapon user in Heroes.

Can my thread please get merged with this? I dunno what mod to message though... >_<
Just use the report button on your own thread and that's it. You don't need to speak up about it in either thread. A mod will get to it eventually.

Something about Lif looks different. I just can't put my finger on it. Did he get a new haircut? is that it?
That's not him, look for the prince with brown hair and white armor. 😛
Surprised Lif's not the Mythic Hero this go around or that I've forgotten who Altina was.

I would have thought paraphrasing a meme would have given it away. To be honest, I find it more likely that something simply went wrong during development, and they tried to simply get done what they could. It's no less aggravating for me.
Dunno that meme, but eh, fair. Honestly, I'd like to get an understanding of the development process behind the game. Did working on Let's Go hinder the project? How does the process of bringing models into the game work? Bunch of questions someone who is tech-savvy can reliably evaluate. Maybe.
@NegativeExponents-Same for me. I keep switching up colors and blowing lots of money on new clothes in-game because I'm indecisive on fashion.. 😛

This is GameFrEAk’s revenge for daring to speak out against them, instead of consuming product and getting excited for next product.
I'm honestly hoping you're joking about this silly conspiracy theory of sabotaging Switches because of toxic harassment hitting the company over a small PR lie, even though they know well there are people more forgiving of them/have no idea of the controversy and having them caught in the crossfire would be cruel. That's ridiculous, and it's not like Pokemon hasn't had similar issues before (saving in Lumiose City in X and Y comes to mind). Worst part is someone found out some Pokemon models like Noibat had minor improvements too in their models, so even if it's small, it's still technically no lie. People jumped the gun and got picky about quality.
Personally, speaking as someone who looked forward to the game (and someone with low standards for entertainment), 3 gyms in and I think the game is pretty good. Music is great, opponents are not so soft so you need to level up when you can (from my perspective), character customization is pretty great and the aesthetic of the cities is pretty lovely. Some small annoyances here and there, but I think it's good for what it is.

So, sad news is it's not the runner up banner.
Good news is ECHIDNA IS HERE! Also we got our red bow!

I have to agree with Ana for the most part on this one. I wouldn't have an issue with Rudolph getting a 1 game suspension for his actions like Pouncey but that was well after Garrett hit him late after the play.
I'd say 2 with the next Browns game in mind. At the very least, I wouldn't mind Devlin Hodges getting a couple tries.
I did hear though that there might be more suspensions coming as the incident is evaluated?
-
I'm honestly a bit shocked Rudolph got no punishment. Garrett was obviously the worst person in the bunch, of course, but Rudolph still was trying to get at him and grabbing Garrett's helmet, only without the pulling off.
That said, looks like Garrett's had some past issues with his hits, too. Definitely atrocious on his part, and comparable to assault like Damien Woody put it on ESPN.
Here's hoping Juju and the others recover soon and well, by the way. In Juju's case not only out of worry but also because he's the Steelers' best WR and losing him is a hell of a blow. Even if he might not be too good this year, not having another guy to help lure away coverage is a big factor in that. Also, I don't remember seeing him dropping passes much (seems he's only dropped 1 the whole year actually?), so yeah.

So, I wonder: Will Terry's Cutie version be available as a female alt akin to Wii Fit Trainer? Most likely she'd be bowdlerized to hades and back, like by shrinking her chest down and covering her cleavage, but it is worth noting that a genderbend option does exist thanks to SNK Heroines.
Technically female Terry existed thanks to Capcom's vampire character from a dead fighting game franchise turning Terry into a woman as a special attack
That said, if there are any alt outfits, they might more likely go with the older Terry from the last Fatal Fury game (not to be confused with the King of Fighters series/timeline), "Garou: Mark of the Wolves".

Please don't mess with my posts like this without asking my permission. I don't like when people do this and I think it's rude. So no, I don't need to listen to you. You don't seem to understand that it's not your place to police what I say.
Besides, you didn't just make a minor edit the post, you changed what I wanted to say completely. I didn't want to say "it's pretty good" I wanted to say which version I preferred and there's nothing wrong with that.
You did the same to me not too long ago but you distorted my views, not just what I wished to say. And even then, I literally said I was giving an example of what you could say instead, so it's pretty clear what was going on.
I'm just warning you that if you continue to do that, people aren't gonna be happy with you and it's on you for your choice of words. Let's say me and another person posted art in the same place. If you said that comparison to me by choosing the other person even if the person you were comparing to and I posted art of a similar subject in the same place, I'd find it disrespectful that you're pulling attention away from my art, "imo" or not. I'd feel similarly if you said out loud that you preferred mine.
Regardless, did I misrepresent your opinion? Let me ask you this: Do you like the official localization? Do you find Ranulf's wording funny? Do you find Seliph and Leif's dialogue nice?
If the answer to the last three questions is "yes", then I clearly didn't despite my alterations.
Yes, I changed what you wanted to say as was the point because what you wanted to say was too much than necessary, but I didn't change what you said you felt, only removed it. Sometimes, you need to realize how your words can affect others, because they can be very powerful mentally.
I'll drop it here, but I hope you do keep what I said in mind instead of dismissing it just because I was "policing" your choice of words and maybe apologize to Coolmanio if they wish for it.

Sure, when you put it that way, it seems random and unnecessary, because nobody was talking about that other artist beforehand. But in this case, the official English translation of this comic was brought up, so there was nothing wrong with me then saying I preferred said translation.
No, there is still something wrong when you tell someone you prefer the original over their translation. It doesn't matter if the other work is brought up or not; artists and people in similar fields including localization are trying their best to do their work and get a good reaction from others, and many artists I know of find it disrespectful to be compared to another artist. You don't seem to understand that your intentions are never an excuse for your choice of words, and while I can't speak for Coolmanio themselves, you can never assume people will be okay with that.
Let me quote your post, but make a minor edit.
22 hours ago, Anacybele said:Hey, the new official version's pretty good!
Here it is for anyone else that wants to see. I just think Ranulf is funny in this version. XD And Seliph's and Leif's wording is nice too imo. Also, alliteration in the title ftw!
Here, I edited your top line to be rid of the "sorry but I prefer this" line and also got rid of the parts where you practically go "hey look these parts are better than what this person on the forum did!". Here, your message comes in clear; you like the official variation and you're showing it for others to see while avoiding pushing away the original work. Nothing else wrong with it. No one needs to know you prefer the official over Coolmanio's version.
Remember, saying "A is better than B" is like saying "B is worse than A".
Here's hoping you don't "agree to disagree" and keep what I've said in mind for the future. Trust me, it's less harmful to avoid making comparisons.

Devalue? I didn't insult his work, I just said what I preferred. It isn't like I said Coolmanio's sucks or anything. 😕
Comparing one to another and saying the other is better is devaluing one's work. It's like if you drew a picture of Ike and someone showed up to say, "Sorry, but this picture of Ike by this person is better". That person didn't need to say that to you. You wouldn't like that, right? What's the point?
It may be your opinion, but you don't need to tell people you prefer one person's work over the other if it's not necessary. Sometimes, things are better off not being said (especially when saying it doesn't really help the conversation), and it's important to know when to keep things to yourself.
-
@AnacybeleFor future reference, don't say out loud "sorry but I prefer this" when talking to someone in regards to their work, especially if they're not a company employee or whatever doing said work for free. No matter your intentions, that comes off rude; if someone goes through all the trouble to translate, and you tell them that someone else did it better, no question it would understandably demoralize or anger them, and no amount of "sorry"s in advance can nullify that.
Best to keep it to yourself and say "hey, the official's not too bad!" You get to say your opinion, you don't devalue another's work, everyone's happy.

Since it's relevant to VAs being bad, I think it's also worth noting that there miiiiiight be another controversial VA in the form of Todd Haberkorn in the game. He only voices a one-off enemy NPC who dies in the same map you meet him, but for those who don't remember, he's also Joshua, Luthier, and Morgan in past games.
I bring this up because in the middle of the whole Vic Mignogna insanity that was happening, Todd apparently had an incident of at least sexual assault on one of the many women accusing Vic (not one of the defendants in Vic's case, to be clear). Seems she called out a VA without naming them, and Todd accidentally exposed himself with a response on Facebook defending himself that he deleted afterwards and someone else he named in that response came to the woman's defense. Apparently he was also supposed to get the same lawyer Vic got for his lawsuit (BTW, Vic lost all the charges and is presumably on appeals, so no points for whoever can guess how bad said lawyer screwed things up), but nothing really came of that since it was announced in March...by an infamously malevolent grifter.
This probably won't affect the game since the role is so small and is for a bad guy, but still worth noting. Todd's voice is still in Heroes and he is still credited, so presumably the localization team doesn't know.

Can we assume there is a pattern that at least one character will always be skipped over Farfetched every year since Micaiah was skipped year 1, Selkie was skipped during year 2 and Lif (assuming he isn't coming out until next month's Mythic Banner) won't be on this year's Farfetched banner.
Probably not. Micaiah was probably skipped because she's a lord and should be introduced on a banner specifically for her game and Selkie was because beasts were not a thing. It'd really just be coincidence if Lif is skipped over for being a Mythic Hero (which should be expected, otherwise Thrasir just looks awkward).

Well, we got another controversial night game involving the Packers and refs in NFL history as the Lions lose by some bad penalty calls.
Not a good look for the league officials.

Steelers win and hurt a bit of the value of that 1st round pick they gave the Dolphins. They seemed to lower their guard a bit at the end, but considering almost all their losses were close against good teams and the 2-3 Chargers had one of their wins vs the Dolphins, people probably lowered their expectations too much for Pittsburgh tonight.
Hodges still looked good despite the interception, so not too much concern there. Next week is a bye before the Steelers face the Dolphins.
Panthers' Kyle Allen is still doing good, too. Cam Newton might not have a future in Carolina at this rate.

He jumped a little, but he was hit AFTER he threw the ball and it was a hard helmet-to-helmet blow. Helmet-to-helmet is illegal period.
Roughing the passer penalties after the pass don't apply if the defender was being carried by momentum too much to stop in time, and watching it in real time, Thomas did not look like he had time to react and stop as the momentum was carrying him. I'd say it took 0.2 seconds after Rudolph threw the ball that Thomas tackled him. The helmet-to-helmet contact looked fairly accidental as it bumped the edge of the facemask. This wasn't someone rushing to hurt as hard as they can like Burfict. Helmet-to-helmet or not, it looked like an unfortunate accident Thomas couldn't help much.

He's not allowed to criticize teammates for mistakes? Why? He's not the only one that can make them, you know. And he is a team leader, so it's part of his job to help his teammates stay in line.
She could've easily asked her friends to lie to defend her since they're her friends. Testimony alone, especially from someone with reason to lie, is not proof at all which is likely why Ben was never charged. Real evidence would've been found in a rape kit or at the scene and nothing was there.
I'm not going to defend Ben if he really did commit this crime, but I also do not accuse someone without proof and I have no proof he did anything. What happened to innocent until proven guilty?
1) Publicly is the key word, and Kevin Colbert enabled that. He embarassed his teammates publicly with criticisms, stuff that should have been kept internal.
2) Roethlisberger is not in a criminal trial, so the classic "innocent until proven guilty" excuse people also made for AB being sued in civil court to harass his accusers doesn't apply.
And what is her motive for her and her friends to lie yet not pursue a lawsuit out of fear of being harassed by Ben's fans? Why did this happen twice in a few years? Why was the woman physically hurt? Was the DNA really unidentifiable because there was "not enough"?
I won't jump to the conclusion that it's definitive, but "innocent until proven guilty" is a weak excuse to shoot down anger against him.

Ben's willing to lie about raping a woman; you don't think he's capable of lying about who dressed him?
Your worship of that man is creepy.
I think the more notable thing is that Ben's more so possibly lying about not knowing he had an Apple Watch put on him. You should know what the hell is being put on you if someone else is dressing you, especially if it's a mobile watch.
Given he's done cruddy stuff in the recent past like blame his teammates publicly for failures among other things, I wouldn't put it past him.
9 hours ago, Anacybele said:Got any proof he lied?
Well, two women accused him, and while the first accusation didn't go anywhere, the second one had supporting statements from her friends who witnessed the incident, and testimony IS evidence. The woman also was worried about being put in the public spotlight for a long amount of time and (if I'm correct) her name possibly getting exposed by proceeding with a lawsuit due to Ben being a popular figure, and considering the heavy amounts of harassment women are shown to get for speaking out WITH evidence (Antonio Brown's two accusers being harassed and demanded to be put in jail (for a civil suit that wouldn't put AB in jail) on Twitter being proof of this, then there's the whole anime VA situation with Vic Mignogna which is even more of a mess of harassment and threats at multiple accusers and their big-name supporters despite overwhelming evidence), there's at least plenty reason to be suspicious of the man. And if he did do it, keeping it hidden is not doing him any favors for when the beans spill.

I don't think you're being rude, so you don't need to apologize, no. Bluntness isn't the same as being rude.
Maybe it was going too far to say to cut Juju then. Dunno what else to say there. But I'm still going to be scared whenever he's targeted now...
Like I said, AB and Hines Ward had more fumbles in their first 3 seasons, and other names like Lynn Swann (9), Santonio Holmes (11) and Randle El (14) fumbled more in their own 3 years.
Anyone is susceptible to fumbling the ball, no matter the moment and no matter how much they try to hold on.
Also, Patrick Mahomes seems to be limping, possibly continuing the tradition of the Madden Curse.

Maybe I stand corrected on his overall stats. But to be fair, much of that came when AB was there and drawing more attention from DBs. Now that AB's not there, Juju's production has dwindled quite a bit.
AB was targeted more than Juju each season, so it's clearly not an issue of attention.
2017, AB was targeted 162 times compared to Juju's 80. They both played 14 games.
2018, AB was targeted 168 times against Juju's 166. Juju played one extra game.
This year, Juju's still on pace to break 1,000 recieving yards with at least 6 TDs or more despite the issue at the QB position.
"Quite a bit" is definitely exaggerating. Maybe he's not getting his 2018 numbers, but considering the QB situation and the fact that he's starting off better than AB and Hines did in terms of yardage, catches, TDs and keeping the ball secure in a smaller amount of years, that just only goes to show he's still more helpful than he is a hindrance just because of two unlucky freak fumbles, the 2nd one being more of an impressive play by the defensive player.
If the Steelers GM operated on your logic, AB and Hines would have been cut, and that's why I can say with confidence that the mere thought of the Steelers cutting their top WR outperforming the other WRs is unfathomable and only fueled by paranoia and anger instead of rational thought. I'm not apologizing for how blunt I say that, either.
Juju stands as an important key in the Steelers' future right now, and paranoia over two unlucky fumbles and unproven accounts of "more fumbles" come nowhere near close as a good reason to even consider cutting him.

That link says page not found though? Whatever the case, my point about him still not putting up numbers akin to those guys stands. I'm not saying he has to be exactly like them, as it's hard to find talent like that (and AB's level is probably once in a life time honestly), but he could still be putting up better numbers than he is.
Okay, well you can easily look the stats up if that link fails.
But let's check out Juju's stats his first TWO seasons compared to AB's and Hines's first THREE seasons.
Juju had 2,343 yards, 14 TDs and 169 receptions in 30 games.
AB had 2,062 yards, 7 TDs and 151 receptions in 38 games. More games, less results.
Hines Ward had 1,556 yards, 11 TDs and 124 receptions in 48 games. More games, even less results.
Juju has contributed more his first two years than either AB or Hines did in their own first three individually.

Um, I'm not lying when I say he's fumbled more than twice. He's only cost us two games so far with those fumbles, but there WERE others. I wouldn't have been afraid of him having the ball otherwise.
But looks like we won't agree here in any case.
And the stats also will not agree with you. They say Juju has only 2 fumbles (well, 1, but they haven't updated yet) in 3 years.
Meanwhile, AB fumbled 5 times his first 3 years and Hines fumbled 3 times his first 3, the same two you lament his performance "not being like [them] at all". Yet we should cut our best WR on the team right now? Makes sense!
