DATABASE DATABASE EP 3
+ Show Spoiler +Party 2 are basically "guys .. cc please or draw the aggro or something.. we fucked up need help " lol that's pretty cool
how did a someone demikas get lvl 90 without learning how to cooperate in a party properly ? probably some kid who brought a level 90 character or the game allows solo leveling even in higher levels
Idk any mmo game where raids reach as long as a month. I don't think you can play non-stop for like even just 3 days without actually dying or being in a fatal condition afterwards. Maybe they meant now they are inside the game i guess.
And antagonist arrives !! Yey !
normal LH episode

Goody you make me want to slap you with that "probably some kid who brought a level 90 character or the game allows solo leveling even in higher levels"

about the last part, yes raids usually don't take that long in one session because people playing wow these days sign up for raid finder without a group. That's done months and months after raid-in-question has been first-cleared. Idk if you ever played WoW or any mmo's for that matter but remember when Naxx' was released in WoW before the first expansion? The time between someone first stepping a foot in there and someone actually killing Lich was multiple months as well (iirc) despite people trying REALLY hard because we had a timewindow to operate in thanks to first addon release. It's not just "a raid" where you can read up the strategy online and everyone who shows up is supposed to know the thing before even getting in.
It's literally them going in there and trying to clear it for the first time. And yes that usually takes a looooot of time. Or at least did take a lot of time, no idea how it's been the last couple of years, stopped playing a while ago  People obviously don't play that long in one session. You grind it over weeks and months until you figured out how to beat it. It never has been mentioned in the anime (iirc) but I'd assume they do sleep inside LH world as well 
|
At that why is there still this stupid talk about LH being inside a game?
|
totally off topic but iirc there were certain parts of naxx that had to be needed because nobody had gear at that time to clear the content and it's not that people didn't know how to beat it, it's just that you had to take time to farm the other wings for gear before lich could be done.
|
Because the characters saying "When this was a game" "This is our reality now" about once per episode still isn't enough to remind people it isn't a game anymore

Vanadis#3 please these imba weapons in that world are so strong lol

The girl (god damn it I can't remember names) thought the sword transfered power to the bow, dunno. Anyway, I wonder if there'll be any background story at some point, like why there are such OP weapons etc. :D
It's pretty entertaining so far. Hope it stays like that.

But as others said, LH is more about character interactions and less about epic battles, and I kinda agree with it. I think I wouldn't complain if I wouldn't have loved the early SAO S1 so much. I definitely will keep watching LH anyway because it's good enough imo. + Show Spoiler [SAO II] +Well, it'll be interesting to see what goes down in SAOII. Basically, what's up with the queen? lol. Wonder if Kirito knows that Asuna is moving back to Tokyo since I don't believe she mentioned it before. I'm also hoping for some awesome fights.
+ Show Spoiler [LH] +I liked the fighting, felt like we needed more of that and less of what we were getting towards the end of season 1. I'm pretty content with the explanations so long as its not every second of the episode seeing as I've never raided before when I tried WoW so extra info. I thought we were going to see Shiro die in that first battle lol but they retreated.

Few things. Demikas is your classic arrogant DPS that goes full dps before tank has aggro under ccontrol then rages at the tank for losing aggro. He also doesn't dodge anything so a novice healing will waste all their mana healing him instead of just letting them die.
10 days worth of supplies is actually pretty freaking amazing. I remember in vanilla you used to spend all your time that you weren't raiding farming mats to use for that weeks raiding and that was only for 2/3 nights a week. Having 10 days without access to AH is just crazy. Generally took about 2-3 months to start being able to clear the raid in a week iirc.
The LH raid explanations were a bit weak. I'm not sure about other games but in WoW you generally don't have a "clean up" party. If your add pulling gets out of control and you aren't overgeared that was a straight raid wipe. So you'd have planned every pull down properly before engaging hence no need for a "clean up" party. No mention of hard CCs like Sap being used on pulls either which was pretty important in some zones. Full raid AoE healing also is a bit iffy. Must be super mana inefficient.

Patchwerk is classic example of a gearcheck boss as well. It's obviously a lot harder since they are in the game so no wiki or raid addons to tell you everything.

Especially considering that the guild boss guy mentioned something Shiroe'd only understand if and when he dies. The LH author isn't trolling nishio, so that would habe probably been mentioned as well?

The LH author's style has a thing for integrating application of some real concepts into random situations, which showed as overtechnology in fantasy in the case of Maoyuu. In LH it was like the use of field monitoring in a raid in S1, also the early exploration of execution in battle vs playing a MMO with limited vision and such. Though it has been leaning more and more toward pure mmo terms as of late.
Guy really just loses steam the longer a series gets on zz

In Brotherhood within the space of 10 minutes he's introduced, super-fast mother backstory, turns daughter into chimera, both then murdered. It really didn't have the same "effect". What makes Brotherhood so much better? I could switch since im only a little into it :-) At the part you are at, the original does it better. However, pretty soon you will come up on a place called Lab 5. After Lab 5 stuff finishes, the original and Brotherhood diverge completely, and the original diverges into absolute shit, while Brotherhood diverges into really cool and good stuff. However, on the shared materials, the part of the original you are currently at, it does do a better job than Brotherhood. Its partly because that stuff had already been done in the original FMA that Brotherhood sped through it. Also, Elem, FYI, coming into discussions like this and calling everyone who doesn't share your opinion a liar, or saying they are simply spouting bullshit, is the exact reason I got pissed at you in regards to Muv-Luv last week. And then on top of it, you call the other guys the rude ones. Pot, meet kettle.

Still gonna hold out for a few more episodes though. When its almost exactly how it was expected to be, IDK how it could be disappointing. The directoral style is just like Turn A or King Gainer. Eh, I just can't really stand most of the characters. If the mech fights get a bit better and Noredo Nug+ G girl somehow get lost for the rest of the season I probably won't mind.

Man, I feel like I'm the only one who likes Noredo
