Mrowr
Not even the fact that they only punch, i broadly have no issue with that. It's the fact that they only throw big wide punches. Two fighters that should be the pinnacle of technique, and neither throws a single efficient punch. The later John Wick movies were getting a bit sloppy with the striking too, but i can look past that as part of the character getting more and more fucked up every movie
They used a real goddamn knife for that?!
#5 also applies to Gwent
I guess the range and weirdness of the weapon might help it be a bit better of a deterrent. Also, while stick fighting is known in the Philippines as a martial art today, that doesn't mean it was only popular there. Pretty much everyone fought with sticks in some manner (eg British cane fighting, bo/jojutsu, many forms of staff in Chinese martial arts, pencak silat)
Yeah, but using the flutes to fight without stringing them together is almost always the better option, and probably less suspicious. It's a bit weird to carry 2 flutes, but it'd be even weirder having them attached at the ends.
Is she a research topic?
Wasn't it the whole point that they were just tools that people just had around their house/farms? I can't see people actually carrying nunchaku around for defense, they'd have figured out pretty quickly that just using a stick (or even the 2 sticks separately) are way more practical. They're not very good weapons
Ugh, i feel that. It's so hard just to get myself into the gym after work too, never mind progress being slow and painful
I thought nunchaku were originally rice threshers and shared their origin with the Chinese sanjiegun
That's all i was thinking too
That's very much not what Fujimoto writes, all of his work veers off into weird fucked up territory
Hm. Well, 2 directions i can think of here, the worse one is something sandbox-y where you don't really have a loose condition, but it sounds like setting your own goal isn't what you're looking for. My other thought: Speedrunning might be a good change of pace, having an easy base game and then a second goal of optimizing could be a better focus for you. Something with a bigger community would mean variety in what kind of run you want, but mechanics you like should be the first priority.
Not familiar with either game, but have you considered challenge runs? Eg weird limits like not using certain units, skills, or whole ass mechanics if applicable (like no parrying/riposte in dark souls)
I personally prefer Shawn Bawn
I thought it was more ash-lin
I'm Chinese Canadian, I've met multiple people named Joy, a couple of Sunny's and one person named Fortune. Jubilation Lee made me chuckle a little bit when I first saw it, but it made sense to me once I learned that jubilation is a word and it means happiness.
Jubilation sounds like something a Chinese parent might actually name their kid in English, Chinese culture loves auspicious names so something that's a synonym for happiness actually fits
Jubilation actually almost works as an Asian American name. Chinese culture loves auspicious names and giving your kid a name that's a synonym for our associated with happiness is a thing ie joy, sunny
I guess it's just called a post mortem finding at that point?
I don't think the leidenfrost effect is that big a factor here, ice is very insulating and state changing would keep it from undergoing temperature shifts super quickly. I'm assuming they were expecting the ice block to pop like glass would in response to that temperature differential
Texture is very different from regular pancakes, the inside stays gooey for some reason. I absolutely hate them, the batter just seems raw to me even if i know it isn't
Yeah, totally. That movie, which we all know and/or love. It's certainly a movie that likely has a title
Well fuck
*along the lines Stupid autocorrect
I always thought asking the lines of fallout 4 power armor
Did i miss something or do you just not like Disturbed?
Ah yes, thecrimsonfuckr

It's hilarious but also endearing with how significant it was in the movie. I love that it's the only setpiece they decided was significant enough to include
