Return of the Naruto Community Derail Thread: Part Two!

I like Beerus and Whis, and the God of Destruction. But I don't like how it's done with the Saiyans, it's just another power up that puts Goku and Vegeta even further ahead and then is mostly forgotten.

I think it could have been cool if we got to see other Gods, or if it was used to fix the massive power imbalance in the cast. Because the God power up was so huge, and so arbitrary, you could make anyone relevant with it.

Having more than one super saiyan form at all is what seems odd to me.

I feel that Super Saiyan wasn't really interesting until it got the additional forms, that made it feel like it was more than just a Deus ex Machina.

The same could happen with the God forms, but I don't really want to see it a second time and with God just swept under the rug I don't think it's likely.

I'd like to see a Super Human God.

Or a Super Namekian God.

Yamcha could finally become useful.

But hopefully not with those names, right? "Super" for other races wouldn't make sense, because Super Saiyan God is only called that because of Super Saiyan.

I'd also like, if they create other Gods, that they put more effort into it than the Super Saiyan God ritual. A Namekian God could be something achieved through a combined meditation of the Namekian race, and requires someone who belongs to both the Dragon Clan and Warrior castes (limiting it to Piccolo).

Since Toriyama retconned Boo's origin, it could be revealed that he was originally a God on par with the likes of SSG and Beerus, but being tainted by evil lowered his power. Then when Boo gets reincarnated without the evil into Oob, boom! God power back. Mr Boo could also become a God by having a mix of the original Boo's God power and the Dai Kaioshin's purity.

For humans, have Dende step down and appoint Kuririn as God. Only when Earth's God is a human, can they have the entire population on Earth donate energy with them to unlock a God form, like a much larger scale version of the Namek and Saiyan rituals. Take advantage of humans having a much larger population than anything else.

Android 18? Artificial God. Bulma works with Kuririn to synthesize his power and transform 18. I had another idea along the lines of Artificial = false that involved a sort of Clap Your Hands If You Believe deal, but that would work best with Mr. Satan. And it'd be awesome.

I meaaaan those ideas are cheesy but I'd prefer them to new hair colours for Goku and Vegeta.

Going to watch Fury Road.

Gun' be gud.

False God Satan would be killer.

That's the Mad Max one?

Day... whatever... of living independently - I keep failing to account for how impulsive I can be.

Bought fresh food to be eaten over the course of the week, planned my meals not to waste any and eat cheap... soon as I get home from work OH MY GOD I WANT NACHOS FOR DINNER

Come on man, iron will. I've eaten pretty much the exact same things for breakfast lunch and dinner for about three months.

Oh, I always have the same breakfast and lunch (rice bubbles and salami sandwiches, plus the free muffins at work) but I have to switch it up for dinner.

Saiga, remember this well - If you feel like eating something, just eat it! Burgers, nachos, fried chicken! You are an adult now and nobody can tell you what not to eat! Break the shackles and gorge yourself out!

I just have bolognese, it's at most $10 for six meals. Or $15 if you want to get fancy.

shoo shoo, intuitive eating goblin!

But money. Even when you're an adult, money can always tell you what you can and can't do.

Your body knows best what it needs.

But only little money will tell you "no", the more money you have the more permissive it becomes.

My body is an idiot, and so is my brain. My heart will guide my diet as it guides me in all things.

Ah yeah bolognese is great. Although if you're terrible at estimating it's instead $10 for one incredibly painful meal.

I usually get a lot of mileage out of what I make. Sausages are where it's at, though. 24 for 7 bucks, I can feed myself for a week.

my heart is probably my stupidest organ, I am not sure you should follow yours.

Your heart will guide your diet all the way down Triple Bypass Avenue. I don't think it's that reliable.

Also: I have a terrible habit of not double checking what ingredients I have before cooking. Sometimes this means realizing I forgot something important halfway through the cooking, tonight it meant getting ready to finish my carbonara, pulling out my cheese and finding it has turned grey.

Me too, Saiga-tama. ;___;

I finished the Dragon Reborn! Egwene was about to redeem herself in my eyes by beating the crap out of the sleeping Black Ajah, but then Mat's ridiculous luck and Nynaeve punching the bitch in the face stole her glory. Wonder when Elayne gets to be cool.

Aiel are super important, Rand's finally here with Excal Callandor slashing fires and wreaking havoc. Moiraine burned a guy's sternum to a crisp. Perrin spent the entire climactic battle saving this crappy fail chick who's been stuck in his boot this whole book. Perrin fails!

Wait. You've only just finished the third book? I thought you were on the fourth! Oh, well. That had a cool ending.

Elayne never gets to be cool! Actually wait, maybe she does. I just remembered some stuff about her.

Aw, Perrin is one of my favorite characters. You're so hard on him.

Started reading Black Company books. Wow, I never encountered protagonists so flat out unlikable as here.

Is that in the best way possible, or in the worst way?

A hundred hours in on Dynasty Warriors 8. Before really getting in, I wondered why anyone would min-max their character if you will only improve your abilities to play the same levels over and over again.

Naturally I am now minmaxing my mains to improve my ability at playing the same levels over and over again.

Because hoy hoy hoy.

I think I min/max too much myself. I get the absolute best stuff with the best builds and then find the game too easy. No shit, it wasn't balanced with obsessives in mind.

Amen to that.

Dynasty Warriors is a weird case, though. The game is at its most fun at its piss easiest.
