How Do You Do, Fellow Kids?

If my 16yo son is to be believed, this MoistCr1TiKaL fellow is supposed to be the bees knees.  It's possible this may actually be the straight dope, as he has the #7 Trending video on all of the YouTube today.  I mention this because at the 5:53 mark, he says it thisaway:

As an old vampire I find little to like in this man

 

Good taste in games is not going to overcome everything else I find loathsome about him.  One suggestion would be to grow the hair out even more until he looked like a brown Cousin It.  I might tolerate him then

[Botzoman]

I watch him from time to time, and he's mentioned liking City of Heroes at least a couple other times in the past too,. I was just suprised to see him mention it in this video complete with talking about private servers.

Fads fade, what is cool in one decade eventually falls out of favor for the next big thing - only to return for nostalgia or other reasons as the cool thing. I think it's just part of human culture to listen to story tellers. The only difference I see is the medium it is presented through.

A propos fads - does this mean we are going to see FOTM builds which maximize the moistness of critical hits? I, for one, have never paid attention to how moist my crits are, but I guess that I have to wait for @Ston or @Croax to publish a listing of stalkers ranked by moist crits. I can already guess that Fire/ has the driest crits, but the rest in anyone's guess.

Hrm.  Maybe I've been preparing for this for a while, as I have a Water/Electrical Corruptor named Embarrassing Wetness and a Water/Storm named Moisture Riser.

I wouldn't be surprised if at some point a streamer with a decent following stumbles into our fine city and brings with him 1000 other players for a few months.  As you all know, we've got a genuinely good game here.  It seems inevidable that we'll eventually catch a wave.

And that will probably be when the trouble really starts.

 

Jinx.

The moistest crits come from TP attack powers like Shield Charge.  Trust me on this.

And here I thought Water Blast was the obvious king of this category.:-)

I have a character in BG3 that applies water on a hit, and has a reduced threshold needed for a critical. So I've inadvertently made a Moist Critical build without knowing who this guy is, because I'm old enough that I'd rather play a video game than watch others play them or talk about them.

I'd place Water/Ninja Blasters with the moistest crits. 😉

It seems to me that the reason for eager expectation of carp melee is the obviously moist criticals.

Not to mention Gill Strike and Tail Slap

Not watching video. Looks meh. But I gave every post a saxophone in remembrance of the lost era of saxophonery in sexy RnB and pop music because his name has moist in it.
