    "Ok, so, maintain initiative at all costs, got it."
    Immediately gives away initiative in literally the first move of the game.

    This is truly the darkest timeline, Jon hasn't played Xcom 2 yet and plays state of decay 2 without playing the first, I don't know if Jon has played last of us yet, but if he hasn't I fully expect him to play the second first.

      You got me there, but here's the thing, Jon said that he tries to make it a priority to play the sequel to a game quickly if the game has one, he hasn't played any main series pokemon game on the channel, to my knowledge, but he's played the previous Xcom game and its Dlc, that's my reason for wanting it. It would of been over by now and this conversation wouldn't be happening.

    Why is he focusing on one guy, when he can obviously select the target for each of his ships? During the whale battle, he could have had the first boat attack a shark for 1 damage, and the 2nd ship attack the whale also for 1 damage, instead of for 1 damage total.

    • @TheGeekCupboard
      @TheGeekCupboard 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The whale has two 'shields', so whatever damage is given to the whale is reduced by two. With both his cannons firing at the shark (top boat causes 2, bottom boat causes 1), that causes three damage, minus the two for the whale shields, equals the one damage point remaining.
      The individual ships on their own would not be able to cause any damage to the whale with their basic salvos.
