crazy how out of all the things to 1:1 reproduce from D&D/Pathfinder, it's that levels 1-4 are player character meatgrinders, levels 5-15 are podracing, and anything past that is either pure murder or the most free shit imaginable

back when the fritters were made by hand and didn't just randomly appear in our inventory every so often

doesn't change that, objectively, it's fucking annoying, ofc. but at least i can respect the man who thought making annoyingly fake happy music could fix him somehow

the album art is a great capture of how Brian Wilson probably felt while making Surf's Up, despite how it came out. i dont like glorifying depression by saying "that's why it's good" but knowing the backstory really unravels that annoying twee that haunts the general sound of their work

Comic. I’m at my desk, leaning over to the doorway, saying “Hey! Foghorn! Foghorn Leghorn! Get in here!” Foghorn Leghorn is walking past the doorway, “Boy, I tell ya, I tell ya, not so loud, boy. What, I say, I say, what d’ya want?” Next panel, I’m gesturing to my computer. “How do I find that really good manga you recommended? It’s an anime now? I keep getting Halloween costumes.” Foghorn leans over my chair, “well, boy, I say, I say, you ain’t typin the entire title.” Last panel, I turn around- “you said ‘witch hat.’ Foghorn gets in my face- “open your ears, boy!! ‘Witch Hat Atelier, I tell ya! I tell ya ‘Atelier,’ I tell ya’”

How I’ve Been Pronouncing It (Feat. Foghorn Leghorn, my… roommate?)

now it's the price of a game cart while the game carts are each the price of the original console release

blessed hat trick day

did i "like it"? yeah, it was entertaining like a TV show was entertaining. extremely safe writing, obvious drama-building moments that all made sense.

never again though, you feel me?

can confirm, i got it release week and it took me 5 years to push through it at a snail's crawl the entire time because every single little action is catastrophically sluggish and unresponsive as 'part of the vibe' and i never got used to the feeling of piloting a robot in vaseline with 10% battery

blorbo? THE blorbo from your shows?

W list for forcing me to remember omega labyrinth and ZHP ngl

goes hard. my understanding of satan's delight is "a game that is fun but shameful and full of awful shit that would drive anyone sick" while still being a thing to derive entertainment out of. tbh the 'game in a game' part is the toughest. not many games accidentally iterate better like that

clears the original template ngl

ngl i thought he had the joy division album cover on the screen for a whole second

i only played the release version of FF15 but i distinctly remember thinking "man this moves as much as the most excited KH gameplay but with zero consequence or risk or actual action it's just a big LARP that thinks movement = cinematic = good and nothing is backing this up" and here we are now

dude forgot that shitty minecraft cash-in did unreal damage to industry expectations to lead to this situation tbh but honestly if i had to sit there for a movie i didn't really wanna see and was forced to watch keys jingle for a full 90 minutes i'd walk out pissed too

no amount of story adjustments makes me forgive the sheer mechanical flaw that every special move sleight is bad in KH1 and good in CoM GBA

that hyper-scripted 'low point' in the belly of a whale where seth rogen as donkey kong lambasts the plot structure demanding they find common ground and become friends was such a mask off "no actually we HATE art FUCK you viewer" moment it retroactively made whole thing go from naive to malicious

the light-up luma popcorn buckets are way nicer, cost less, provide a better theater experience, and aren't conceptually weird (eating yoshi's popcorn unborn?)

but like the movie itself, middling and uninspired decisions reign supreme over creativity or value

not even 2 weeks in, AI feed curator that reads DMs flagrantly to understand user trends. it's sincerely over

i'm 99% convinced that's a fake quiz that just wants to gather autism scores for uma musume fans for some kind of case study because it REALLY relies heavily on the AQ-10 scoring metric and variables for the results

seeing John Romero and wife Brenda both say "yeah we were employees when the game market crashed in the 80s and the current situation feels much, much crashier" has been a hilarious omen

been seeing a lot of Underverse hype for exactly this but honestly with how the Chinese art toy market has been veering into meat man cyborgs lately you might have a shot somewhere there

and tbh, regarding strawhats, most of them were massacred in the timeskip and never recovered

i only read one piece once a year and recently that means i only get about 30 chapters to read rather than the typical 50 but i definitely haven't been disappointed.

it does feel like it's scoped way out of the adventure fantasy of skypeia and alabasta days, though, that's for sure. wano sucked lol

putting a beard on ryu to say "stop acting like he's the main character he's unc now" was crazy work for 6 but it really was what it took to break capcom's weak-knee streak of proposing then doing take-backsies on new character relevance, both heroes and villains. rip necalli lmfao

with how close the new anime is, i fear another rush job, but it does kindly remind me that The Scramble Vice is still blank on a delivery date when it was also heavily inspired by Patlabor and contemporaries from the era

"old thing good, new thing bad"

can you say what made old thing particularly good?

then my eyes roll to the back of my skull as they try to assert the answer is "soul" in some vapid and meaningless way

"why are kof 2HKs so popular they're super minus" and the pushback is so stupid every time that it doesn't mean a damn thing that they're minus
