None of the names are legible and the front two are both showing a one star general ranking.

In this story arc, Calvin stole her class notes and was trying to hold them hostage. Instead of meeting his demands, she waited quietly as a strategy. She was extremely angry.

Hobbes simply pointed out that, due to their hostage situation, they were able to stay up 30 minutes past when Rosalyn makes them go to bed.

I… Have some really unfortunate news for you

This is the exact question i asked my spouse when told it was in Australia. I was under the impression that their gun laws are fairly strict?

Yes, and i saw the movie in theaters, but do not recall anything about these countermeasures. So i tried looking it up and it isn’t anywhere.

I’m not going to watch the entire film just to try and assess your point for myself. I’m simply asking you to verify the thing that you’re claiming.

I’ll add: i also watched the movie, and those things didn’t happen and were not mentioned.

Where did you see that they had countermeasures for even a death star? I’m looking it up and everything about the plot conveniently has everyone grouping up for a conventional attack, only for a gigantic super death star #3 (planetary variant) to just destroy everything.

I’m honestly not even mad at that. What broke my immersion was how everyone was just flat out stunned that they would try it a third time, and with no defensive countermeasures whatsoever. They were caught off guard a third time

And that third time they figured out how to bend space lasers to hit every planet at once and auto win

Come on

I would say it’s really not about reflexes at all, and it’s actually timing based dodge mechanics. Anyone who says reflexes is incorrect imo. Good reflexes can allow you to avoid learning the mechanics, but that’s really it.

I’ll give you an example:

While driving in the USA, at a red light at a four way intersection, the stoplight will typically turn green after a certain amount of time. Each stoplight is different, and assuming there are no other indicators, trying to go exactly when it turns green is a reflex (unless you memorize every stoplight pattern in the country).

In Europe, when stopped at a red light, it will actually give you a yellow light before the green, giving you an indication that a green light is proceeding. It’s no longer reflexes and is now timing based, which is more predictable.

Expedition 33 is the latter timing based situation. Some enemies are more frustrating than others, but they typically telegraph their moveset (that you learn over time) and then you try to time a dodge or parry. For the first hour or two of gameplay it’s more important because your stats are low, but as you progress it becomes less critical.

To summarize, you really don’t need good reflexes, and you don’t need to nail the dodge mechanics to play and love it! It’s just helpful to dodge a few times when possible, and once you learn it it’s actually quite gratifying i think.

You just don’t understand Master Ken’s ultimate style. He’s the ultimate master! His training videos are unbelievable.

It’s such a sad reality, and I’m sorry that you experience that.

I think part of it is the mandatory driving culture - if you can afford a car you will drive, so you only take public transit if you can’t afford to drive yourself. That, plus public transit in the US is typically only available in high population cities, and it feels like there’s little law enforcement around transit locations.

I’m sure there’s other reasons as well but it’s a really unfortunate situation altogether.
