P6 - super pedantic but my ocd is triggered -

Dominate is a verb

Dominant is an adjective

You used dominate twice as an adjective in USPOL, which I read sometimes for amusement.

P6 is dyslexic?
Or something similar with grammar and proofreading stuff

Fact. Grammar and I are not friends. Or spelling words in general. I have a specific hatred of the words representative and annihilation.

I meant for posting on TL specially though.
The dedication required to deal with written proceedings professionally in the, from my experience, unrelentingly so and thoroughly insufferable pretentious legal field, is remarkable.

The blessing of the legal field is pleadings don’t follow any form sentence structure usable by non-legal humans. Stuff like:

In the aforementioned title action, CA: 1234-6666-BM, Plaintiff, Landman, failed to extinguish the subject Easement.


That is it, that is the end of the sentence entire paragraph. No further information can be conveyed and it can never be referenced to grammatically again. No pronouns can be used, ever. They are forbidden. On to the new paragraph that will convey exactly one useful piece of information in this fact set.

Also, "aforementioned" is the bomb. So many run on legal sentences were saved by its magical power to say:

"Yo, the last this I was talk about. Yeah, that, I'm still talking about it. Look up if you need a reminder. Exactly one paragraph. Its there."

Is it actually good? It looked a bit boring to me on some streams, but maybe I'm just biased as someone who put a ton of hours into MS1. None of my old TLMS friends seem to be playing it so I haven't heard much yet.

I mean the grind can be boring, but there are things about MS1 that made it a great game to me. It's hard to see if those things exist in MS2 by watching a stream for 10 minutes so I'm just curious if anyone who has experience with both games can shed some light.

Been playing .hack today... never played it before, but it sounded interesting and was on a pretty good sale on steam (all 4 games for 20$, in HD). An hour in and the story is all sorts of very nonsensical JRPG tropes, so I'm enjoying it.

You can tell the original graphics were right at the edge of a transition - if they were trying to be realistic and had done HD on them it'd probably have wound up in the uncanny valley. Instead it just looks decent, but occasionally really weird.

Is the music at least as good as MS1, because the art style isn't appealing to me.

boss fights are really fun but thats about it, the rest of it reminds me of wow (run around aggro shit and aoe them down)

skills are all first job type shit so nothing that looks too fancy unless you're playing a runeblade

lots of qol stuff and they have a clever way of monetizing the game now
it's not so egregiously ptw like it was in ms1 where the only way to get gear was to use nx for cubes to roll lines on your gear

also you can import your own music into the game and play them on an instrument in the middle of town
i played the xx intro on repeat in ellinia

I'm a bit on the fence about the premier club benefits. For $5 USD a month you get to have unlimited teleports around the game for free (and a couple other benefits) instead of paying for a taxi (and going to a taxi hub) but like... is that worth it?

Map doesn't seem to be enormous so far and taxi rides are probably objectively really cheap when you get to max level.

heli taxis are basically free if you use maple coins for mapleopoly and get shittons of rotors walkie-talkies, the premium club is good for new alts cos you can travel to new maps foc, but non-premium only lets you use the basic RWT for maps you've "discovered" before
