    It's been too many years, and I've tried to forget the blotches that Harmony Gold has made of anime and their subsequent issues regarding the copyright on Macross, and HG's litigiousness over terms and images they claimed the rights to.

     

    You sure seemed anime-ted enough about it.  Although back then we called it Japanimation.

    Biting Grip!

    Which Voltron? GoLion or Dairugger XV? How can it be "the most iconic giant robot in media" if it's just two completely unrelated Japanese anime series jammed together? And now I'm mad that you seem to be one of those western fanboys who think it's all original, like the people who don't understand that Harmony Gold's 'Macross Saga' was made up of Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Genesis Climber Mospeada, and Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross -- three completely unrelated anime series jammed together to have enough episodes for American TV networks to buy in syndication. For an 'iconic giant robot', you'd do better by going with Gundam; the style, maintained across fifty series, films, and OVAs, as well as manga, novels, and video games, is more widely recognized than Voltron will ever be.

     

    And if you take this comment seriously, you deserve to.

    Harmony Gold made Robotech.  The Macross Saga was just the first part based off of...Macross.  I imagine next someone will try to (incorrectly) nerdsplain out Tranzor Z.

     

    PS:  Youths!  Tired of all these millenials walking around acting like they rent the place.

    Among many, many things, THIS has always confused me: there are a million posts where people complain that The Real Game isn't giving out enough rewards, but as soon as someone uses that as a justification for farming, suddenly The Real Game is so god damned rewarding, people get hernias just by returning to a contact.

     

    Is that one of them cakes that's just for lookin' at, or is it the eatin' kind?

    Shatterpoint, who I was responding to, didn't say there weren't enough rewards.  What they said was:

     

    " I do not mind pointing out that for new players, playing normally has no reward whatsoever."

     

    and

     

    "There is ZERO reward for playing the game normally. "

     

    As this is demonstrably false, that's what I was responding to.  My response wasn't about "enough."  My response was specifically about "at all."

     

    While it's nice to get quoted and included, don't misinterpret, willfully or not, what I posted to grind your axe.

    Uh...when I got back, I did some doorsitting to get my main back to 50.  That's when I realized I was broke except for any inf I made if I got killed in a farm because evidently that turns off 2xp until you get levelrezzed.

     

    After that I tried MSRs which, while a little lucrative, were better for coverting vanguard merits to reward merits, which I used for recipes or enhancements I needed.

     

    Then i started doing task forces and oro arcs for reward merits, and continued equipping myself that way.

     

    I dont marketeer.  I usually sell off all my recipes at a shop instead of an AH, unless its a purple or high value orange.  I usually even ignore basic and yellow recipes because Im a badger.

     

    I'm currently all kitted out, with everything catalyzed, on two builds, t4s and all with multiple t4 options, and currently chilling at about 650 million inf even after hooking up 2 alts.

     

    Farming is in exactly zero way required to do a goddamn thing.

    Also, people need to stop confusing donations with payment. Payment is obligatory to have product. Donations are given out of the goodness of one's heart. Don't donate and then dangle it over someone's head, devs or RL people.

     

    I owe all of you an apology.  What I should have said instead was:  Donations made to the Ronald McDonald House do not make you the CEO of McDonald's.

     

    I hope you accept my mea culpa.

    I use the SR secondary with Martial Arts punch animations.  Infiltration for movement with the parkour run and the ninja flip animation is great fun.  I indeed use Mu tinted gray and white.  Internally i call it Taser Webs. (Electric Shackles makes it look like their wrists are webbed to the ground, great fun on giant monsters).  Ive played with a little Mace and only recently found it more palatable with the new sheathed weapon options.  Going Mu makes Ionic Judgment feel a little more natural, too.  Ive thought about web grenade from weapons and toxic dart from experimentation, but i hate both of their animations.

     

    I'll throw on a jump pack which "feels" mechanically like swinging from time to time, but it not being available all the time is a turn off for me.

     

    My 2 inf.
