Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
AJ looks completely unstoppable, seems to have twice the life as the others or just hits twice as hard.
Twilight looks like a blast to play though. And she has a Heartstrings recolor!Proof-reading is totally unnecessary in the digital age now that we have spell cheque.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
You know, I hadn't noticed that before... I should pay a bit more attention to that. Although I'm of the mindset that if you have to worry about how much health you have, you're getting hit too much, and if you have to worry about how much damage you do, you're not doing your combos right.
Zone based characters always are. Those teleports alone are fun as heck looking... I think I might try to learn both Twilight and Apple Jack, actually... although if I can get over her being so... freaky, I might sub Pinkie for Jack.You can call me anything. I've been called Inkin, Nono, INo, Names, and NoKnow so far.
As of 7/20, I've gotten help in trying to get past a physical addiction that's been eating at my time, and finished recovering from a spot of trouble that ended up eeking into Self-Harm. I'm doing better now; here's hoping it lasts a bit longer...

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
*coughs pointedly*
I play a wizard, so everyone complaining has the right to discount everything that I say, but I don't think Inferno is that bad. It was requested by a huge portion of the community to be something truly, legitimately hard, and the only way to do that in Diablo is to kill you, really really dead. There are also certain builds that can make the game much easier beyond pushing the numbers. For example, I've been mucking around with a life regen build on my wizard that restores close to 2k hp per second and that makes it much easier to stay alive and kill stuff because I can survive about 2 hits in act 3 with energy armor and ~35k hp, run, regen, and get back to killing.
Ponysanity is perfectly "sane" colloquially, given that we are ponies talking about ponies in a ponythread.
I'm so tired. Not in an angry way, but a weary way. I'm so tired of people responding to pony stuff with "That pony should have kicked that one guy's ass!". I really am. You know what pony brings me? Peace. It is a refreshing reminder that you can be peaceable, non violent, and still stick to your guns. That life is not ALPHA MALE **** YEAH BRO I TEABAGGED THAT MOTHER AND TOLD HIM I WOULD RAPE HIS SISTER versus the soft hearted losers. You can stop fighting and still win. And that is so very important
Also, quite frankly, I'm tired of things being masculine or feminine as if those are evaluative terms. Something can be assertive, and it is a good thing because being assertive is a good quality for everyone. Something can be sensitive and that's a good thing because everyone should understand other people better. Something can be arrogant or abrasive and those are bad for everyone because they make others feel belittled or unimportant. You get my point.
Oh lawdy there's only one explanation
Luka is Awakened >_<
Wow, that's like 15-20 threads old. That game has been in development too long.
...Dibs on Twilight Sparkle.
I love those pictures.
AJ is interesting because I think she's the most newbie friendly, and will probably dominate early. However, her rope appears to be her only ranged option, and her charge has a really obvious tell and can be blocked. I think when people get good, AJ might end up being a bit weaker just because it's so difficult to approach people when they know what they're doing. Rarity can gem zone, Pinkie and Twilight teleport. Twilight looks really strong to me because she can zone so well and her big attacks do a lot of damage, so she heavily rewards setup. Pinkie I think might be too weak at the moment because she's so combo heavy and the game appears to have diminishing returns on damage in high-hit combos.

Gah... I have to get ready for a several-hour-long road trip, and I still need to finish packing my things... I can't stand staring at this!

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Hey guys!
I just got from a general fan convention here in BsAs called Unifans.
The brony fandom took over the convention like locusts, we had a Shining Armor dancing , a couple of humanized mane6 and the total disappearance of all pony swag within distance in less than 2 hours.
But the Argentinian bronies wouldn't stop for something as simple as "We don't have more swag".
We started making some more, right there!.
With the help of some guys from Stargate fandom who had sublimation technology we started printing vectors in tshirts, cups and even pillows!
Swag and ponies:
Spoiler
Defacto Leader of the club, Pinkie Pie
Me BroHoofing Shining Armor
They have already bought ALL buttons/pins before I even arrived,
they even bought some of the ones I had reserved for me!!
Small group of Bronies, the one with RD wig has an
"American Cloppers" shirt...
Human Twilight Sparkle, after being harrased by too many bronies.
Gathering
SteamPunk Shining Armor? You can't discuss that
Starfleet captain brohoofing Shining, to meet new civilizations.
Now to show the ponyswag we did in the convention.
I'M MAKING PONY SWAG!!!
(That's me, and yes I made the brohoof shirt right there.)
CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS CONMEMORATIVE CUP GO!
Brohoof Shirt (Absolute best advertisement for a convention)
Luna Pillow
DerpyLink
DerpyMail
My fiancee (right) with mane6 shirt with human AppleBloom
Customized Pinkie Pie shirt with cutiemark
Others:
Stand before bronies:
After bronies:
I was not part of a stand, When the guys saw that I had made my brohoof shirt with the Stargate fanclub a huge amount of young bronies suddenly overran them with odd request like MyLittlePortal cups and ...yes even "Cupcakes" tshirts, the poor guys weren't ready for that, so I jumped behind the desk and started channeling the desperate hordes requests and streamlining the purchase line. The group was so happy with our help that they gifted us two of the shirts (the pinkie one and the mane6 one)Last edited by Zigg'rrauglurr; 2012-07-07 at 09:17 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
It does with that attitude.
Last time I cast a magic missile it looked more like a kamehameha. Rather dense missile grouping really.
Ah. Well then my friend. Come on in, kick up your hooves...
And welcome to the herd.
Spoiler
Yer darn tootin'! Personally I wanna see what they've got before I vomit to a character.
The only rule o the tournament, was YOU GO IN BLIND. This means no practicing your combos beforehoof. Everypony still in board?
Ladies, please!

Does the game actually require these numbers? Wouldn't I work just the same if you divide every number by one thousand, and you regenerated a whopping 35 every round?
Preach it!

Personally, I like Pinkie's concept, but couldn't execute it. Rarity is probably closest to my actual play style. But I pride myself on adaptability.

Luka: two things. One, being in a bad mood doesn't mean that what I said wasn't true. Second, elegance and aesthetic? No, you misunderstand. I said inellegant. Any fool can scrabble and scrape and barely succeed. Elegance is succeeding with enough left over to utterly control how well it goes over. Elegance is mastery. Lack of mastery, reliance on brute force and desperation is for people who haven't been able master themselves.
And the elves you refer to are caricatures of the real deal.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
dude....I just noticed this part with Anarion.... And for me, non-fighting, all-quiet stuff is just.... So.....Freaking...Boring!
Warning: long "action is awesome" speech ahead, may possibly be seen as rant/deluded/weird way to think/blood-knight behavior/overly idealistic/contradictorial/omnivoral cows, also nothing to do with ponies:
SpoilerHeck, even when playing "non-action" games I PUT action in, even in simcity: I end up making aliens appear sometimes to get something awesome besides just managing stuff, then speed-fixing and calling them in AGAIN; and minecraft and legoes: I build stuff, and I either make them to look awesome, to break them, or to break something else.
I'm a completely and pure player with the Real Man. taking the non-action option is..... just plain BORING AS HECK!....Just ruins it when there could be ACTION AND AWESOMENESS!! Because seriously, tell me, where the heck is the fun in talking or idly chatting?
Real Life? then there's the old latin proverb: you want peace? prepare for war. Nearest thing you can be is a martial pacifist, and heck, fighting is so bad?..... Yeah, and Teddy Roosevelt didn't demote himself to fight, then come out of the fight and call it the "greatest day of his life". I'm tired, but REALLY tired of people claiming that "fighting is hell" and that is comepletely and utterly pointless, I'm aware it's terrible, but there's a bit of glory in there, and many of mankind's quotes have talk about it and to motivate people.
*heavy breath*.....Dude, that's a nice head-strip-mining I did there
Wait.... there's argentinians too? Eye mean, not much surprise since it seems they're the most internet active over here in South America, but that's, like, kinda fast , wow that infection spreads too kickly, I guess that makes me special
Though, that's different and like 1000x easier thn getting to my country
It does.... a bit, more like it derails slightly.
Pff, why do you want elegance anyways? it's replaced by.... well, hard to describe since I just entirely love explosions out of pure whim, like everything I like. and there's mastery of it, which without having to look good... It just looks awesome, want proof? okayLast edited by Luka; 2012-07-07 at 09:26 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
This conversation is the closest I've come to really crossin the forum rules.
To quote is sufficient substitute for wit, they say. Have you ever broken someone's bone, Luka? Have you actually gotten into a fight? Have you stitched someone's arm together after they were stabbed in a fist fight? Have you taken a machete away from someone at knifepoint because they were too doped up to see straight?
I don't know how you can claim complexity only in your favor. A fight is hell. The worst part, the VERY WORST, is how much fun it is. Glory doesn't come from inflicting harm, it comes from standing up for what you believe in. Only the stupidest or most desperate see violence as the first resort.
do me a favor. Have someone try to fun you down in traffic. When we stand on equal footing, then you have the right to tell me you're tired of educated opinions on what it's like on the inside.Last edited by SiuiS; 2012-07-07 at 09:47 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
I don't know if I should be flattered or insulted that you consider me to be in the less sane group of ponies.
Also your games seem really fun.
That is a really good question. We've got to think on this.
On explosions they do have the raw power appeal. Like being out in a thunderstorm with the thunder roaring just overhead. Sort of a raw power that is attractive.
Agreed.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
@Siuis
Don't assume I don't know bout that, there's a broken bone and a mugger. And I still differ, Fighting is not hell, hard, but not hell.
But whatever, a talk just won't achieve anything, even less if it's to negate something driven by pure whim and practically life-basis, and it's somewhat off topic.
So, no Fallout 3 mod that adds FO:E in or something? or for New Vegas? I think I would be getting it soonLast edited by Luka; 2012-07-07 at 10:24 PM.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
The closest thing I can think of is someone's project to make Twilight the Dragonborn in Skyrim. I think it was beyond simply re-skinning things. I saw that on EquestriaDaily at one point, not really sure where it's at at this point as I never bothered since I play it on console.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
STARRY
STARRY NO
STARRY NO
Allow me to try and explain what you're missing. Well, several things that you're missing.
SpoilerI have a lot of rockin', jammin' tunes on my playlists. But the best ones? The best songs are the ones that make me feel. (Well, strictly speaking, the best ones are the ones that get me inspired, but that's neither here nor there right now.) And quiet, sad songs? Are much better at getting me to feel deeply than loud, brash songs about battle. There's certainly an immediate rush when listening to loud battle-tunes, but they aren't the ones that stay with me.
My favorite song, over the past weekend, was a quiet ballad about Celestia and Luna, about their relationship and how much they care about each other. There was nothing in there about the battle they fought, there was nothing loud and flashy in there, but it still made me stop what I was doing and listen the first time I heard it, and I listened to it over and over.
The important thing, the very important thing, about the story of Celestia and Luna isn't the epic battle they had, shattering Castle Harmony and laying waste to the Everfree Forest - that's just clamor and empty waste. What is important is the why of that battle. Luna's jealousy and envy, bottled up for years, finally reaching its breaking point, poisoning her mind against even her beloved older sister; Celestia, torn between trying to save her sister and having to protect innumerable ponies from the endless night, forced to banish the little sister she would give anything to protect. The emotions that their story makes us feel are much richer and thicker than the shallow adrenaline rush bestowed by the battle in that story. If it was just, "MOON PONY HATES SUN PONY, SUN PONY HATES MOON PONY, JUST BECAUSE", it would not be worth remembering.
Am I getting this across? Avengers, for example, has very good action scenes. I certainly enjoyed them. But when I think of the movie, I don't think of the action sequences, even the final act which is practically one giant, fantastic, action sequence.
I'm thinking about Thor and Loki, and their relationship, and how the movie makes it clear how far and how tragically Loki's fallen. I'm thinking about Captain America, and how he manages to be a real true-blue hero in the face of adversity. I'm thinking about the tense argument between Steve and Tony, that is much more effective than any slugfest could be. The characters make the movie, and their emotions, their personalities, the way they change - they're much more important than the action.
Pff, why do you want elegance anyways?
Elegance enriches the soul. To use yet another comparison, explosions and spectacle and action are the soul's fast food. Elegance and emotion, on the other hand, are harder to eat and prepare, and aren't as finger-licking delicious, but they are healthy and strengthen the soul.

I just nod and smile every time he posts. It's more effective than actualy responding to the person who does no like ponies yet does nothing but respond to pony-related threads.
I have the mod that gives you Flutter's attacking towns and one of the sets of pony-themed gear, but otherwise I have not heard of this yet.
You know, I did not need to sleep today anyway. More time for ponies.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
Horses are awesome though some of them can be very temperamental. Something I refuse to do is to cross water on a horse. I've seen them slip or panic too many times to trust a horse on wet slippery stones. Otherwise though horses can be pretty nice. They seem to like to crowd around me so I'm stuck in the middle of the herd.

Re: My Little Pony XLVIII: I say Ol' Chap, how about those Equestrians?
One of my horse adventures they gave me a positively gigantic male who apparently took to walking in a line with the others badly. He would run up to the front and try to walk before the other horses, would bite them if I made him stay in line, and eventually gave up on the group and took me for a gallop around the brush.

Reading through a few pages on the tumblr, it seems to be adding in a full "My Little Pony" race to choose. Though I don't think much progress has been made recently. He has also done a few things like pony related armors and whatever the heck a "face morph" is.My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: The Thread, The Game, The Tumblr.

Heh, did you bail or hang on for dear life?
In a similar situation (though it was a mare) I hung on for dear life and smacked my head on a tree.
We also had a stallion who had the ability to walk through fences as if they weren't even there.

I am simultaneously blushing at getting into your signature, and sighing that it would be that quote that did it.
Hey guys, free pony rides at Thanqol's house!
This paragraph screams out "I'm a writer" though I'm not sure quite why. Maybe it's because you went into the dog's perspective in that whimsical way.
