gollark: Also, the explosion is just silly.
gollark: The reactor is kind of cool but also does the DE thing of "haha big number good".
gollark: Particularly the whole "chaos guardian" thing, which is just ridiculous - it's a boss with an attack which *instantly kills you*, except DE armour can magically save you from death for a lot of power, so you're forced to use that.
gollark: It's just "what if we take things, and make them have bigger numbers?!??!!¡ ̇¡ ̇¡ ̇⅛ ̇" ̇!¡ ̇¡ ̇?!!".
gollark: I actually dislike Draconic Evolution. It's where the "it's balanced because it takes effort" thing comes from.
