SS should have some small 30-60 second music that plays 1 time at set locations like rain world

Just so that silent areas aren't lame and boring (Deep Docks)

[olive bobcat]

I don't think Silksong should be anything like Rain World

[olive bobcat]

iirc Deep Docks has music

Slow droning music

its ART its JUNK MUSIC you wouldn't GET IT because you aren't an ARTIST like RAIN WORLD FANS

[olive bobcat]

"junk music"

[fiery coral]

Junk music

[olive bobcat]

Curious

[fiery coral]

Don't tell me that's a genre

[shell yacht]

It def is

[fiery burrow]

Its so artistic it doesn't even have its own wikipedia page

[olive bobcat]

Its proper name is "breakcore"

[surreal remnant]

if it doesn't have a wikipedia page, it doesn't exist

[runic atlas]

Eventually it'll come out

[fiery coral]

Don't tell me that's a genre

[fiery burrow]

Its not for the mainstream like rain world as a whole because most people have an unrefined musical palette

[olive bobcat]

It's not don't worry

[unborn dome]

it is 7 am for me
I’m honestly considering hopping on though
I gotta get my free skin of a dead guy

[fiery burrow]

you can just play random keys on the piano copy a 70 year old beat and scream over it and people will ask for more 😔

[olive bobcat]

No that's Ultrakill

[fiery burrow]

bull of hell is pretty cool though

[shell yacht]

Thanks for the outlander tip btw I can't believe how slow my farming was before

[fiery burrow]

Unfortunately its an omen that Hakita is just going to make harsh noise for layer 8 😔

[coral prawn]

My microwave was screaming at me today

[gloomy hill]

ultrakill music is actually good fym

[unborn dome]

also let me optimize your hero loadouts

I want to optimize them

[coral prawn]

No!

[olive bobcat]

Sorry you had to find out like this

[gloomy hill]

[fiery burrow]

Act 2 is "Eh"
Layer 7 " "

[gloomy hill]

[olive bobcat]

Feeling great, I got a whole 6 hours of sleep last night

[gloomy hill]

layer 7 actually sucked

[fiery burrow]

OK mods can we put this guy in a Gutterman

[strange night]

Lucky, I got around 5

[coral prawn]

Lucky I got 4

[strange night]

I was stuck at my uncle's house until midnight babysitting 😭

[olive bobcat]

I was aiming for 5 but I accidentally slept in

[strange night]

I ended up using his Netflix to watch white chicks, funny movie

[shell yacht]

I don't think I have much to optimize I only have like 2 I use and the other big ones I got are just enough to give me a cool down boost on builder and punch reach? On outlander

[olive bobcat]

https://youtu.be/HBbeuIxC71M?list=RD4Wff-3KhZf0

[gloomy hill]

EXACTLY

[fiery burrow]

Gutterman is too kind

Mods put him into a mannequin

[shell yacht]

Holiday boost is the first one

[gloomy hill]

I HAD TO GO BACK AND GET THE SAWBLADE LAUNCHER FOR THAT LEVEL

if you have minimal experience making optimized load outs there’s certainly some things that can be done

[shell yacht]

Probly

[formal marsh]

Eeyikes! It seems that my joke relating ULTRAKILL to the United Kingdom through their shared acronym has provided me with an actual piece of music dedicated to it! I shall increase my volume considerably and listen to this on my new headphones.

[strange night]

Look around

[fiery burrow]

just grab the secret in the penultimate room it'll spawn like 4 extra filth iirc

[unborn dome]

I might tell you to flux a few blue and purple constructors for support
hero rarity only matters in the lead, so it’s fine if you have blues and purples in support if they have perks you need

[shell yacht]

500blue outa purple
Just did cany storm defense my only 3stars are black knight beergut and the gun mechanic outlander

[unborn dome]

also are you free for a quick mission right now
there’s actually a top tier gold constructor in a mission I can pretty easily carry you through

[shell yacht]

Ooh sure

[unborn dome]

fortnite

[unborn dome]

I am going to warn you, you’re probably not going to be able to do much yourself here as it’s a bit above your level

I can drop a 130 xenon bow though just for the mission

[shell yacht]

That's fine lol I'm on outlander I'll farm and teleport

[gloomy hill]

uh ok wait gimme a second lemme launch the game rq

[gloomy hill]

@pine lotus

is that ultrakill difficulty 😭

[unborn dome]

there’s a trick for the van survivors

build a floor under them

[coral prawn]

It must ultradie

[gloomy hill]

😭

[coral prawn]

I am no machine

[gloomy hill]

Machine, I will cut you down and break you apart, I will splay gore of your profane all across the stars!

too fucking bad I am doing it now

make?

lmao

[coral prawn]

Wright a whole book

[fiery burrow]

ULTRAKILL must die will probably go something like this
+V1 Starting Health: -50%
+Maximum time to beat the level and still get an S rank: -50%
+Fall damage added and it can kill you
+Enemy Speed: +40%
+Healing from blood: -50%
+Style Points: -20%
+Enemy attack speed: +50%
+V1 receives permanent hard damage

[shell yacht]

???

[unborn dome]

it’s has to do with husk pathing and how the van works

survivors on vehicles don’t take damage until the vehicle is destroyed

husks also always try to directly attack the survivor

[shell yacht]

and the floor breaks their pathing

Hilarious

[unborn dome]

if they can path to to the survivor while the van is still alive they will

but the survivor is still invincible at that point t

[shell yacht]

It'll suck if they actually put a lot of work into updating stw and fix these things

[bleak jackal]

ok, im sorry

[shell yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/undead-unluck-undead-andy-unluck-fuuko-fuuko-izumo-andy-gif-16850995621743531711

[bleak jackal]

thats the same reaction people had for theshow

[fiery burrow]

I mean thats basically gutterman

[coral prawn]

[unborn dome]

collect black knight and level up either ice king or the constructor you just got
ice king freezes enemies that attack your walls and slows them on your floors
the one you just got gives auto healing for your builds

[bleak jackal]

gutterman across the gutterrverse

[unborn dome]

personally I prefer ice king

[shell yacht]

I have iceking in my load out do I need to main him for him to do that?

[unborn dome]

yes

I’ll make a loadout of what yours should look like

[shell yacht]

These sound op but my beergut knight thanks I'll work on iceking next ig

[pearl lance]

is it out yet?

[shell yacht]

?sspsa

[white sail]

Reminder: The latest news for both Hollow Knight and Silksong can be found in #hk-announcements.
Check the pinned messages for more information, including a FAQ.

[pearl lance]

damn, guess i'll return to my slumber

[unborn dome]

ice king freezes enemies when in lead
flux a blue or purple base kyle from the collection book, he's the second one there and increases building health
next put in the guy you got for a slight auto heal for buildings
base md is good for healing
flux a purple electro pulse penny for autodamaging enemies when they attack your structures

you know how to place base, right?

[shell yacht]

I can't activate slow your roll without two more 3 stars woo grinding

Yeah I love B.A.S.E

[unborn dome]

switch to recycling

saves on building resources

it's pretty convenient if you're playing solo and building a lot yourself

[shell yacht]

Hey that b me

I didn't know penny could do that, does she need to be my main too?

[unborn dome]

It’s only that specific penny

and she does that in support as long as you’re using a constructor with base

[shell yacht]

Damn

Lemme see if I can buy some flux

[unborn dome]

you have purple flux though, right?

[shell yacht]

Some blue and a tiny bit of gold, but I just bought more gold

So good tank penny does this auto dmg thing?

Gold*

[unborn dome]

tank penny doesn’t

only electro pulse penny does

the one I circled

both purple and gold do it

same effectiveness

[shell yacht]

Ah shoulda opened the img she was cut offscreen

Ah dangit I'm still a few short

Brb

[unborn dome]

always next week

base Kyle, the other one I circled, is arguably much more important

raw building health

[shell yacht]

True

[unborn dome]

to fill the remaining slots use weapon damage heroes

you probably have a rescue trooper Ramirez

she just buffs all assault rifles

something like that

also you can recycle any duplicate heroes for resources

there’s no use for dupes as they don’t stack

plus it levels up your collection book and gives you fun goodies

[shell yacht]

Collection book taking my 30 recycled heroes about to hand me a blue shotgun schematic

[unborn dome]

you also get training manuals for recycling

[shell yacht]

They should convert this absurd amount of battle pass xp into other things, like proper rewards. I'm way too over leveled in BR when I could be getting GOLD or smth

[unborn dome]

there are methods to farming gold

sadly it’s not gold farming season
we gotta wait 2 months

[shell yacht]

What lmao

[unborn dome]

gold farm season just ended too

[shell yacht]

Gold crop isn't in season?

[unborn dome]

dungeons

[shell yacht]

Ahh

[unborn dome]

can be speedran and gives insane amounts of gold

there is also ventures

[shell yacht]

Speedrun

[unborn dome]

the mode you should be playing

[shell yacht]

Isn't ventures like ng+

[unborn dome]

not really

it’s actually best for lower level players

you level up a lot faster in ventures letting you access what are basically the equivalent of normal high level missions
gives you a lot of resources to level up your main level

[shell yacht]

So it's better for the NPC expp stuff?

[unborn dome]

and with your new constructor loadout with a couple of trap schematics you actually should be able to do pretty good in ventures

[unborn dome]

yeah

[shell yacht]

Hmmmm

[unborn dome]

it’s best for everything

you can get late game amounts of pure drops of rain

also I think it can unlock 4 star and 5 star evolution before you actually reach twine peaks

[shell yacht]

Like, the materials or the ability too

[unborn dome]

both

now crafting them is a different story

[shell yacht]

Cuz separate lootpools

[unborn dome]

yep

[kindred pewter]

Holy shit mushroom

[unborn dome]

but if you level up your traps you’ll be able to craft them there

also this season is insanely easy to farm in ventures
the outlander right click ability uses no energy this season

you can just spam it infinitely

spend like 30 minutes farming and you’re basically set for crafting traps for your constructor loadout for that whole level range

[idle basalt]

Yo

[shell yacht]

That kinda thing is seasonal? Lmfao

[idle basalt]

Why is the group photo (gay)?

[shell yacht]

Why not

[idle basalt]

No offense

[unborn dome]

yeah, usually the modifiers are more trade offs but for the holidays they just make every hero op

[shell yacht]

Damn

[idle basalt]

Btw what to do after defeating the hollow knight?

?

[shell yacht]

Wait is there a normal ventures map? Or is it all this fjords rn?

[unborn dome]

it’s all fjords right now

it’s seasonal

[shell yacht]

Is there anything fjord that isn't the furnace mission

[unborn dome]

Yes

it’s mostly just normal missions

[shell yacht]

Ok I forgot what I was gone look for when I got back here, uh lemme scroll up

[unborn dome]

you’ve probably been clicking on the frostnite marker

frostnite is separate from ventures

it’s the seasonal ltm

ventures is the orb

[shell yacht]

Oh right I was looking for a quest tab

Oh god I forget how cringe this game can be sometimes, then I read flavor text

[unborn dome]

also even though you can’t get penny right now still get Kyle
he’s way more important to the build

and put a rescue trooper Ramirez in support

[shell yacht]

Even at blue?

[unborn dome]

yeah

rarity doesn’t matter

[shell yacht]

Alr

[unborn dome]

support hero level and rarity just slightly changes your health and shield

[shell yacht]

Rescue Ramirez is a soldier?

[unborn dome]

it’s way less noticeable than a whole support perk

[unborn dome]

yup

[silk zodiac]

just saw new the trailer for sonic 3

[unborn dome]

flat assault rifle damage boost

[silk zodiac]

the jokes hurt to watch

[shell yacht]

Yep got her too

[unborn dome]

most of the constructors don’t have too useful support perks so it’s usually better to just put in heroes that just buff weapons

also don’t worry about leveling the support heroes that much

[shell yacht]

2 more slots any suggestions

[unborn dome]

leveling order should be main hero > main weapon > basic traps > all survivors

[unborn dome]

What do you already have in?

[shell yacht]

Those 2 plus beergut knight just bc

[unborn dome]

base Kyle

[shell yacht]

I added base Kyle and Ramirez, don't have penny yet

[unborn dome]

warden Kyle

[shell yacht]

Ooh skull trooper has a reload DMG buff

[unborn dome]

yeah

I was just about to mention him

good for bows

reload after every shot

[shell yacht]

TRUE

[unborn dome]

skull trooper/ranger used to be a staple of the bow loadout until somebody actually did some math and found that a wacky ass dinosaur was actually better

[shell yacht]

What's the dinosaur do

[unborn dome]

do the math

[shell yacht]

Ooh this ice guy adds an element to sniper crits

[unborn dome]

yeah, he's also a great bow hero, but you kinda need a loadout for it

good to pick up though as he's seasonal

[shell yacht]

Does that reset per shot?

[unborn dome]

build the loadout as the year goes on

[unborn dome]

every 1 second

[shell yacht]

Oh

Still crazy dmg but astronomical woulda been funnier, Warframe type dmg numbers

[unborn dome]

and keep in mind in an actual high level game you have a full part of 130 players
so that health is closer to 700k

[shell yacht]

[unborn dome]

it ends up being way better than the 15%

the freeze guy in the shop is crazy because for some weird fucking reason affliction damage can crit
so with the proper loadout he can just perma freeze things

this game has some really weird loadouts

i think im gonna hop off fortnite

[shell yacht]

Affliction? Like status tics?

[unborn dome]

yeah

it's damage over time

[shell yacht]

Bruh

[unborn dome]

generally the best 6 perk unless there's a weird interaction with a different one

sadly you can only change 6 perks with a core reperk

so you either have to spend core reperks or keep fluxing copies until you get one with the right one

both ways are pretty expensive

[shell yacht]

Wait perks on what

[unborn dome]

you notice how every gold weapon has a non-leveled perk, usually in the 6th slot?

[shell yacht]

Yeah ok, I thought u meant NPCs for a sec

[unborn dome]

usually it's just called a 6 perk

most weapons have either affliction or slowed and snared

[shell yacht]

Zapatron counts as a sniper right

[unborn dome]

yeah

but bows also count as snipers

[shell yacht]

Peak

[unborn dome]

and bows are op in stw

[shell yacht]

Oh I got a bow from a crow in that mission lol I forgot to look at it

[unborn dome]

it's probably high level

[violet path]

Isnt that the really old fortnite gun

[unborn dome]

you might want to recycle it

[violet path]

That has like one clip of it

[shell yacht]

Brightcore scrapshot water

[unborn dome]

keep the 130 baron though (hammer)

[shell yacht]

Yeah it's in the story mode as a sniper archetype but it was in Br once as a mistake

[unborn dome]

zapotron is probably coming back next month

[shell yacht]

YOU GAVE ME SMOUGHS HAMMER

[unborn dome]

zap trap was already confirmed

[unborn dome]

the speedy hammer

[shell yacht]

I alr have a gold zap I just wanted to know if I needed a regular sniper for that perk

[unborn dome]

triple movement speed perks

[cerulean sable]

Hornet will trade a thousand cases of whiskey at the cost of a 500 cases of pimpillos

[unborn dome]

if it says sniper it also applies to bows

[shell yacht]

Peak weaponry

[unborn dome]

but if it says bow then it doesn't apply to snipers

it's like the square and rectangle thing

[shell yacht]

Lame!

[kindred pewter]

What if hornet gets fucking killed

[shell yacht]

The bow that dropped is stronger than yours but no poison effect, do all bows pierce?

[unborn dome]

no

[shell yacht]

Oh it turns into a shrapnel shot

[unborn dome]

xenon bow mainly excels in that it has a massive hitbox and infinitely pierces through ANYTHING

[shell yacht]

Ye I noticed that shits op

[unborn dome]

it's not really too strong

xenon bow doesn't have any damage dropoff when it pierces

it just keeps on going

also you can rocket ride it for some reason

[shell yacht]

You can rocket ride anything that's not hitscan, at one point you could ride basic grenades. But they patched most of it in br

https://tenor.com/view/the-kid-laroi-kid-laroi-laroi-fortnite-rocket-ride-gif-17929629349654546939

[unborn dome]

also if you want similarly leveled people to queue with for missions there's a fairly large discord dedicated to hardcore stwing

[shell yacht]

Only downside is you go where your teammate aimed, and fall dmg

[lament lotus]

devil may cry 3 smh..

[unborn dome]

they also got a help and crafting channel as well if you need specific stuff

[shell yacht]

Idk if I'm hardcore stwing, the grind is a little mind numbing with how hard upgrading everything is

[unborn dome]

it goes faster if you have a full party

power levels add up so missions get easier

[warped rock]

who is todd rangers

[fiery burrow]

First pro gamer

[runic atlas]

Y'know

I hate the MCU as much as the next guy

But

Up until after the third Spiderman/Endgame, you gotta give them credit

[runic atlas]

They managed to turn multiple B and C Tier characters into All-Stars

[shell yacht]

Yeah it fell off hard but was great for a while. But it became the popular mentality to shit on marvel, like how people "hate" nickelback

[sage glade]

garmuh......!

[olive bobcat]

It sucks they kinda just threw Kang away

[harsh yarrow]

I watched strange and the multiverse of madness

[olive bobcat]

I was excited to see him do something cause I love time powers

[harsh yarrow]

I dont watch marvel anymore

that movie was stupid

[shell yacht]

They def could've done better choices than just 3 movies per main avenger but still was quality

[olive bobcat]

I liked Multiverse of Madness

[harsh yarrow]

Magic is fun when it works within limits

[strange night]

I genuinely turned the movie off partway through

[wheat sail]

https://tenor.com/view/hypnosis-gif-20354324

from Gamer Hypnosis the movie

[harsh yarrow]

Scarlets Witches magic was completely unlimited and broken

[shell yacht]

Kang ruined it himself by being a horrible person cast as a multiversal guy that all had the same face

[olive bobcat]

Yeah

They kinda shot themselves in the foot by removing the recast option for a guy with infinite versions

[wheat sail]

they shouldve all been different races of the same person

[strange night]

My biggest complaint with marvel remains that I have to do homework to watch a movie

They went too crazy with the interconnected universe thing

[shell yacht]

You don't really tho

[harsh yarrow]

Eh thats mostly fine

Sometimes things happen that a big fan will recognize

[shell yacht]

Unless you like jump in at a 3

[harsh yarrow]

yeah

I cant wait for the new Starwars slop they're puting out in theaters

[coarse leaf]

I dont think it's that bad unless you're the type of person that just really wants to get all or atleast most of the backstory and references

[wheat sail]

i just watch the action and sleep at dialogue

[olive bobcat]

I can't wait for Andor season 2

[harsh yarrow]

Andor 2 I hope is good

[shell yacht]

Midor

[olive bobcat]

After 1 there's no way it'll suck right

[harsh yarrow]

The first season of Andor was really cool

[olive bobcat]

Disney can't throw that hard

[strange night]

I didn't really watch the avengers movies or Wandavision so going from Dr strange 1 to multiverse of madness I did not at all understand Wanda's character or motivations
Also going from guardians 2 to 3 without watching infinity war / endgame

[harsh yarrow]

They can and the have sadly D:

[coarse leaf]

Then like yeah Jesus christ, you wanna watch this movie? watch like 15 others before this one

[olive bobcat]

[coarse leaf]

[shell yacht]

Wanda's entire arc was a fucking mess but it wasn't hard to follow, I skipped her show too

[olive bobcat]

I skipped book 2 after 1 so I didn't really like 3

[strange night]

I don't think this is a fair comparison tbh, especially for guardians

It's literally going from 2 to 3

[harsh yarrow]

I heard that they kinda fucked up 3 also

[wheat sail]

Numerical fallacy

[coarse leaf]

So true kirb

[harsh yarrow]

compared to 1 and 2 atleast

[strange night]

I enjoyed 3 a lot but it was definitely the worst of the trilogy imo

[runic atlas]

I mean honestly, the hate was warranted when they stopped trying, but now, Marvel is just kinda like, neutral? Like it's there, it's nothing special or big anymore, just there

[olive bobcat]

Yeah but the characters are connected to other things

And people know this going in

[violet path]

Didn’t watch s1

Was too mid

[harsh yarrow]

We should get a Silksong movie before silksong, clearly

that explains nothing and shows nothing

[runic atlas]

And right now I can't exactly say much about the MCU considering I stopped following after Loki, but I heard Adam Warlock is in GotG3 so I think they're kinda trying now

They're actually putting some kinda niche stuff in

[violet path]

Agreed

Well gotg 3 was also a masterpiece

But theres just so much slop its really hard to actually care and get invested in the world

Same with star wars

[wheat sail]

when the elite soldiers are cannon fodder

(the red guys)

😔

[runic atlas]

Didn't watch

[violet path]

Star wars hasnt had stakes for a while

[runic atlas]

Maybe like, in some good ol months, if I think it's worth it to get Disney+ to catch up

[opaque sigil]

Wait for andor s2

[wheat sail]

or pirate

[runic atlas]

Oh I mean Star Wars unironically did fall off after the Prequels and after the good animated series

[wheat sail]

and invest in gold

[runic atlas]

Nahh, too lazy

[violet path]

I get that its been fun to shit on stormtroopers for a while and the gag in the mandolorian s1 was funny, but they cant serious expect the audience to feel tension when confronted by the same soldiers that we just saw as the butt of jokes for being laughably incompetent

[wheat sail]

eventually youll have to work for money

[coarse leaf]

Ive been to scarred by disney to still watch anything Star wars related

[violet path]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-the-mandalorian-stormtroopers-serves-you-right-gif-15917611

[wheat sail]

then spending money is spending your work hours

[violet path]

Referring to that scene btw

[wheat sail]

😔

[opaque sigil]

Andor is actually very good though

[violet path]

Its not even like mcu where some cracked projects still leak out

[violet path]

Except andor (i forgot)

[coarse leaf]

So ive heard, but after suffering through like 4 episodes of book of boba fett I just dont know if I can do it

[opaque sigil]

It's nothing like that

[runic atlas]

Anyways, I think we're kinda reaching a good status quo when it comes to the big franchises such as Star Wars, DC and Marvel (two of these are owned by Disney but shh)

It's like, they're all there, they all do their things, no one thing is really that much above the other

[violet path]

I could live with the book of boba fett being awful, but the fact that mando s3 was just as bad was a severe disappointment

[runic atlas]

I watched all of BoBF and I mean it was alright nothing special

At least S1, dunno about after

[coarse leaf]

Wow just as bad? Thats a high bar to clear

[opaque sigil]

Andor is barely a star wars show in the best way possible

[violet path]

I should watch it

Ive heard so much good which gives me hope

[runic atlas]

Was the Book of Boba Fett really that bad?

[strange night]

I feel like this is exactly what people said about the first season of the mandalorian

[violet path]

Yes.

[runic atlas]

I watched it only once when it came out

[coarse leaf]

Worse

[violet path]

It kinda applied there too i would think

[opaque sigil]

if people said that about mandalorian s1 they were very silly

[runic atlas]

So like I honestly don't remember

[coarse leaf]

BoBF was so bad it wasnt even funny anymore

[violet path]

I mean it felt star wars but also like a new side of the world we hadnt seen before

God I miss how first 2 seasons mando was

[runic atlas]

I don't think I got to S3

Hell I think my Disney+ ran out before S3 dropped

[violet path]

I watched the first 3 episodes and had seen enough

From what i heard i dont think it got any better

[runic atlas]

Mhmh

[coarse leaf]

Like atleast "somehow he returned" was kinda funny if you dont take the movie serious at all, but man , boBF wasnt having none of that

[runic atlas]

Honestly I'll end up watching everything anyways eventually

[runic atlas]

Aw hell nah

[violet path]

I liked wandavision

[runic atlas]

Take that shit back

[violet path]

Too bad dr strange 3 destroyed all of it

Or 2

Mb

[runic atlas]

I can excuse awful comedy that is not funny in the slightest, but bad writing? Out of my sight

[coarse leaf]

Im not saying 9 was good in any measurable way

But It was, at times, so bad it was funny

[runic atlas]

Dr Strange 2 was honestly just so bad

Is what I would say if I had watched it

[violet path]

No i agree

[opaque sigil]

multiverse of midness

[violet path]

Id never watched a multiverse thing that bland

[violet path]

The fucking family guy episode where stewie and brian go across the multiverse was even so much better

[opaque sigil]

just watch everything everywhere all at once instead that was great

[violet path]

Ooo i should ya

Still havent seen it

I gotta watch interstellar too

Those theatrical event type movies are always so good

Feel like i barely watch movies anymore

I saw like dune part 2, despicable me 4, oppenheimer, and wonka in the past year and thats jt

[runic atlas]

There's people saying "The plot could've been easily avoided if Wanda was logical"

And like, the issue in my opinion isn't that the plot could've been avoided, because the same goes for No Way Home, but that shit was fun.

But the fact that people do complain about it, means the rest isn't good enough to cover for it

[runic atlas]

I think I'll read Dune rather than watch it

[runic atlas]

I'm on the opposite end, I think I'm starting to get more and more into Shows and Movies

[harsh yarrow]

Interstellar is a really cool movie

[wheat sail]

thats a classic apparently

[violet path]

Fair ive been reading a lot recently its very enjoyable

[harsh yarrow]

...if you havent played KSP

[wheat sail]

watch party all of #sk-discussion

[violet path]

But also the first 2 dune movies were so good mane

[opaque sigil]

complaining that a character isn't acting with the apathetic rationality the moviegoer wants to think they would have in that situation is a stupid criticism

people do stupid shit it just has to be believably stupid

[harsh yarrow]

If you've played KSP for any amount of time interstellar is a slightly irratating movie

[violet path]

Whatsksp

[harsh yarrow]

Kerbal Space Program

Build rockets to send little green men into space (sometimes)

most times they just explode

but it has a relatively realistic implementation of orbital mechanics

[violet path]

I finally stopped being a “anime bad” kinda guy last june and have been watching a lot more animated shows since then, but mostly like i said ive been reading those fantasy novel series’s

That typa shit so peak to me

[runic atlas]

I was an "anime is peak" kinda gal some years ago but now to me all media is the exact same and it's the best feeling ever

Wrong reply

But

[opaque sigil]

have you watched the penguin show?

[harsh yarrow]

Interstellar kinda butchers orbital mechanics

[runic atlas]

What is it available on

[opaque sigil]

I think just on hbo

[shell yacht]

well....

[opaque sigil]

it's surprisingly good

[runic atlas]

I'm kinda busy rewatching The Rookie rn

[runic atlas]

Mhhh don't even know if we got HBO here

[runic atlas]

?

[runic atlas]

But I'm halfway through so

[shell yacht]

|| Adam gets literally pulled out of the oven early so he's more like.. DCMU Shazam|| gotg3 spoiler

[violet path]

Ya i like the approach of just “wow this story is amazing and the unique way its executed is so cool” rather than thinking about the format

That is, thinking of one format being better objectively than another

[wheat sail]

i spent all of early childhood saying anime bad so i cant tell my friends i watch anime sometimes now 😈

[violet path]

Omg i wanted to watch that so bad a while back

But then i think i watched atla instead and never got around to it

[runic atlas]

FU-I am calm and collected

[manic abyss]

You should watch Mob Psycho

[violet path]

My whole friendgroup was anti anime until the great shift

[manic abyss]

that is my one message of the day

[shell yacht]

Rookie is good but || some kinda dumbass drama down the line, and the plot takes a weird lazy route ||

[runic atlas]

It's good, surprisingly so for a Netflix series

[violet path]

I lingered on the anime hate train longer than most of my friends but.. after starting with aot last june there was no way i could keep saying “anime bad” with sincerity

[opaque sigil]

Netflix makes some good stuff. It gives a lot of creative control to the creators compared to like traditional production pipelines so it tends to have high highs and low lows

[wheat sail]

ill thank the only weeb i knew at the time being a big pervert and ruining animes image

[runic atlas]

Nahhh imo it's the opposite, ||the drama is a lot more there at the beginning and becomes more fluid later, I have however not really seen S5 yet||

[violet path]

Tbh its not an entirely unjustified hate train with how weird some of the shit and fans can be

[runic atlas]

Can confirm

[wheat sail]

i watched it

so good

[runic atlas]

Okay it's very probable I may be able to watch it

[manic abyss]

Common Kirb W lfg

[wheat sail]

currently watching thousnad year blood war for bleach weekly

[violet path]

Isnt mob psycho kinda like saiki k

I lovef saiki j

[runic atlas]

Not really

Saiki K has no plot

Mob Psycho has a lot of plot

[violet path]

It doesnt have no plot

Its not like family guy

[runic atlas]

Okay but like

[wheat sail]

Saiki K's character is akashi from kuroko no basket

[manic abyss]

Yeah but Mob Psycho is completely story focused

[violet path]

There is an overarcing story and subtle character development but ya i see what you mean

[violet path]

Gotcha

[runic atlas]

Saiki K is very much different

[violet path]

Mhm

[runic atlas]

Also just in personality

And also nature of the show

[manic abyss]

every episode pushes the story forward, like even the calm slice of life wholesome episodes are really important for the story

[coarse leaf]

Do it, dune 1 is actually peak

[manic abyss]

and it is the PEAKest anime ever

[violet path]

Dune 2 was better imo

[runic atlas]

I'm on break regarding Bleach cause shit is so long

[violet path]

But both are so incredible

[manic abyss]

I say that only having watched 5 or 6 anime

[runic atlas]

Really?

[coarse leaf]

You mean movie or book

[wheat sail]

I didnt even watch the original bleach up to that point just thousand year blood war

[runic atlas]

Surprising

[runic atlas]

Bruh

[violet path]

Im on indefinite one piece break for the dame reason and also because it was a snoozefest

[runic atlas]

Watch it

Bleach is actually pretty good

[wheat sail]

ik but it so long

i dont have the time like i did for naruto

[manic abyss]

now that I think about it yeah it is

[runic atlas]

It has its dumb old anime moments but

[wheat sail]

(i watched most of the fillers too )

[runic atlas]

What the fuck

[coarse leaf]

I watched all of naruto classic as a kid

[runic atlas]

Don't watch filler dude

[wheat sail]

i dont even remember what happen #worth

i watched without seeing anything

[violet path]

Didnt

[manic abyss]

No wait 8 anime

[violet path]

Young thugs lawyer bring up bleach in the trial

[wheat sail]

bleach ill get to one day

tybw is cool tho

[manic abyss]

I forgot I watched Frieren and the one about biology

uhhh cells at work iirc

[violet path]

As a general rule of a piece of fiction has bits that you “should skip” i tend to stay away from it

[runic atlas]

@opaque sigil found The Penguin, I'll watch it next

[manic abyss]

I understood almost none of it

[violet path]

The batman was so PEAK

i watxhed it in theators

Crazy good

[runic atlas]

Not what I'm talking about lol

[opaque sigil]

alright, it's a good show. More of a crime drama than a typical superhero spinoff

[runic atlas]

Ahh, speaking Batman

The new animated series what's it name

[strange night]

Watch JoJo, all of it is great and the community makes fun of people who skip any of it

[runic atlas]

Batman: Caped Crusader

It's very good!

I suggest everyone watch it

[strange night]

All I know about it is that they made penguin a womang

[violet path]

My friend keeps trying to get me to watch it

I should

But

Ughhh

I dont like the animation

[strange night]

Penguin is one of my favorite characters so I resent the show for changing him when he's perfect and refuse to watch it smh

[violet path]

Or art style it

[runic atlas]

Yeah they did

They put interesting spins on old characters and overall it's just got something neat

[strange night]

The art style is like vastly different between the different parts of the show iirc

[manic abyss]

It's funny how when I have literally no time to watch shows my list of shows I need to watch keeps growing but then when I do get the time I don't watch any of it

[strange night]

Even moreso in the manga

[runic atlas]

Nahh trust me she's still good

[wheat sail]

interesting

[violet path]

Feel like theres a lot of better male batman villains to change to female but sure

[wheat sail]

sometimes theres a list so it isnt that hard to at least

[coarse leaf]

Honestly this is kinda really valid tho

[violet path]

Kinda hard to imagine penguin as not a guy that looked like benjamin franklin

[opaque sigil]

I'll look into it

[strange night]

The Batman tv series had probably my favorite example of putting new spins on old characters when they did clayface

[runic atlas]

Honestly, executed very nicely

Like, she's just a woman for the sake of it, has no impact on her character, like it should be done

[coarse leaf]

Having far lower quality, maybe even not canon Material thrown into any piece of Media is a pretty good indicator of the Production of that Media being very profit driven or extremely time crunched( or both lol ), which accurately is the worst aspect and the major problem I see in the anime industry

[runic atlas]

If anything, be mad about ||Harley Quinn's changes||

[shell yacht]

Speaking of bleach || first movie is canonized ||

[opaque sigil]

I mean all media is profit oriented some of it is just also good

[runic atlas]

Did not watch it, suppose I'll have to

[coarse leaf]

Ok sure?

But theres also profit driven to the point of quality not being a concern anymore

Which is what im specifically referencing

[opaque sigil]

I mean if you're referring to shit like filler sometimes that's just imposed by circumstance

and something can be otherwise good in spite of that problem popping up now and then

[runic atlas]

I mean, for stuff like Naruto and Bleach, they get a pass

If it was done today, it wouldn't have happened

They had filler episodes (that were NOT in the original manga) due to being products of their time

[wheat sail]

The people who had to watch Naruto on tv weekly

[runic atlas]

My parents...

[coarse leaf]

Why does naruto get a pass

[runic atlas]

Side note my parents aren't young they just watched Naruto at 30+

[coarse leaf]

Half of classic is just bad Fan fiction

[runic atlas]

Because old

I just told you

[shell yacht]

Bleach even has a massive filler arc that would totally fit canon and work as loredump for most of the characters

[runic atlas]

Read this again

And you'll see why Naruto has a pass

[coarse leaf]

I did, "old" isnt a reason

[runic atlas]

Because it was done at a time where you had to have filler

[coarse leaf]

Why

See now were getting into actual reasonings

[wheat sail]

Maybe during airing there was not enough manga material and since it was weekly you wanted to stretch it out so you have material for most of the year

[runic atlas]

Because of the way the episodes were released you couldn't just. Take a break to wait for the writer to go forward,

[coarse leaf]

Thats whats generally happening with filler yeah

[coarse leaf]

But like, why not

[shell yacht]

Anime is mostly 12ep manga commercials
Back then if it was shonen jump etc it got a full adaptation
But if they caught up to the manga they made filler
Nowadays we have 12ep manga commercials and rarely a show gets like 20ep and more seasons/completed, but nowadays they take breaks and toss in more 12ep commercials

[coarse leaf]

Yes weekly releases I know

[opaque sigil]

presumably because of the way their contracts worked with networks and shit???

[coarse leaf]

I dont doubt that but like what kind of excuse is that lol, why does that get a pass

[shell yacht]

Anime contracts still suck tbh, but back in the day getting animated usually meant selling off your series rights

[opaque sigil]

It doesn’t make it not a drawback but a piece of media is more than one good or bad aspect

[coarse leaf]

It was in the contract so the 120 Episodes of filler were actually totally fine and acceptable?? Like no

[runic atlas]

Because it was either that or nothing

[opaque sigil]

‘If it has any filler it’s bad’ is such a weird single thing to focus on

[wheat sail]

who stop yelling

[runic atlas]

Exactly

[shell yacht]

The filler is 100% by the animators, bc they owned the name.

It's either keep up so we can animate it or we fill in the timeslots with filler

[runic atlas]

Anime is mostly 12ep manga commercials

I think I have no words for how much I want to thank you, you have given me words I had been looking for for such a long time

[coarse leaf]

The anime industry in general just seems completely disgusting and terrible, but man thats wild lol

[runic atlas]

Oh well yeah kinda

Well

Mhhh

[shell yacht]

DB has a ton of filler too

[runic atlas]

True

[shell yacht]

The industry being ass is another can of worms entirely but yes

[opaque sigil]

That… what?

That’s how media works???

[runic atlas]

The anime industry is extremely interesting and I think Crunchyroll may cause the fall of humanity

[coarse leaf]

Wild statement

I want to hear more

[coarse leaf]

Thats not how Media should work????

[shell yacht]

Not all media is "if you want an adaptation sell the rights" but most of it is yeah

[opaque sigil]

People sell shit to production companies with the resources expertise and personnel to actually make things

Do you think the average manga artist has the expertise or cash to do everything themselves?

[runic atlas]

On one hand, the anime industry gives big opportunities to a lot of smaller creators, on the other hand, it's only for Japanese creators (except some rare cases), which causes some pretty weird droughts in the industry in other countries

[atomic sparrow]

hey guys

[runic atlas]

hey andy

[coarse leaf]

I see no relevance to this statement

No one is arguing that

[shell yacht]

Old bleach: sold to viz
Renewed bleach: only getting animated bc they agreed with tite kubo that he oversees it and adds stuff

[opaque sigil]

Also pre streaming there just wasn’t another way to disseminate that kind of media

[coarse leaf]

that is interesting

How does this cause the fall of humanity tho

[shell yacht]

TV stations were the guys signing paychecks back then

Man this autocorrect is almost as bad as my typos

[opaque sigil]

They were also the ones who had the capacity to distribute

[shell yacht]

Death of TV is wonderfull

[coarse leaf]

Mine is in german I am actively fighting with my phone every time I type in here

[shell yacht]

I'm just an American struggling to type in English

[runic atlas]

Fall of humanity was an over exaggeration, but, if most niche media comes from the same place, then there's not gonna be any cultural diversity

[coarse leaf]

That is definitely very true ofcourse

[runic atlas]

It's kinda like Hollywood on steroids

[opaque sigil]

Nowadays we at least have streaming platforms that will be able to offer an alternative path to production but there are definitely new issues with those

[shell yacht]

Crunchyroll near monopoly while also making ass changes to their service taking tips from discord

[fiery burrow]

I forget that there are actually people who use crunchyroll

[rustic ore]

[shell yacht]

methods available to me suck

[rustic ore]

Wild

[shell yacht]

So I suffer

[rustic ore]

Stop suffering

[shell yacht]

At least it's still the cheapest streaming cost in my house my like 1/3

[fiery burrow]

im not talking piracy i just have genuinely no clue whats on crunchroll

[rustic ore]

everything except netflix

[shell yacht]

Crunchyroll gets most of everything

[fiery burrow]

how much of that is good

[runic atlas]

Crunchyroll gets everything that isn't on Netflix, yeah

[fiery burrow]

wtf

[rustic ore]

I mean how much of anime is good

[shell yacht]

3/4 to Netflix a year
Hidive is new and it's library is terrible but it has new exclusives too 12 a year may be woth

[fiery burrow]

Nausicaa mononoke uh umm

[rustic ore]

Crunchyroll basically has like 75% of anime on it

[shell yacht]

Ghibli are on HBO for some reason

[runic atlas]

Out of everything? Like 5% maybe

But Crunchyroll has SO MUCH SHIT that said 5% is a pretty high number of things

[silver swan]

https://tenor.com/view/endless-trash-absolute-garbage-i-hate-it-redlettermedia-rlm-gif-9256992402898202515

[fiery burrow]

why HBO is the goat

[runic atlas]

Oh and Attack on Titan is on every streaming platform because it's Attack on Titan

[rustic ore]

Ykw my dad said he got HBO max recently so I guess I’ll watch Nausicaa tonight

[fiery burrow]

[opaque sigil]

PEAK

[rustic ore]

alr i gotta go back outside

[shell yacht]

Per season I watch between 4-25 shows on just Crunchyroll. Most of it might end up 12ep commercial status forever, but there's occasionally hidden gems

[rustic ore]

Ill be back in like an hour i think

[shell yacht]

Rn Netflix has the gem, it's Orb

[fiery burrow]

sounds like a wizard show

[runic atlas]

Even if some are just 12ep commercials, you can find some good shit

Small? Yeah

[shell yacht]

It's actually about astronomy in the middle ages

[runic atlas]

The manga is definitely never getting a full English translation? True as well

Honestly, most of the good anime stuff is romance

[shell yacht]

The worst gutpunch is seeing manga get canceled

[runic atlas]

I don't mean good like Frieren but like, good yeah I'd watch it all

[wheat sail]

HE HAS THE ORB 😍

[shell yacht]

Oh this is cool, I'll read it.

Sorry I couldnt resist

[jade canopy]

Omfg Tammo no
I’m always surprised how inventive people can be when it comes to finding ways to poke fun at people

[shell yacht]

My joke
🛫
🧏‍♀️

Great now my phone wants to call Zal zak

[runic atlas]

I'm pretty sure Zal's joke was the non-existence

Pretty confident Tammo just said Zal's joke but explicitly

[jade canopy]

-# 27,423/365 = 75, ok that is not age

[shell yacht]

Why does everyone think that lol

[runic atlas]

??

Wdym

That is exactly Water's age

[fiery burrow]

Thats Zals age i think

[shell yacht]

Oi

[fiery burrow]

powdereds like 60

[shell yacht]

OI

[runic atlas]

You have a phone that isn't a Chinese brand or an iPhone you are obligated to be old

[shell yacht]

[runic atlas]

Yes I know that specifically you have a Motorola

[runic atlas]

Right?

[shell yacht]

Ye

[runic atlas]

Esgoooo

[fiery burrow]

real ones use android

[jade canopy]

You’d assume
But mods just got mod at 16, are now 20
(Not Zal but I learned that joker was like 21, bruh)

[fiery burrow]

🟩

[shell yacht]

Motorola is mostly android os iirc

[fiery burrow]

joker can yell get off my lawn while drinking now

[runic atlas]

Honestly it's kinda true in a way? It feels like if you have any other brand you're usually middle aged

[runic atlas]

Also arguably iPhone is more Chinese than anything but wtv

[runic atlas]

Star is canonically 27 and unemployed in my head

Either that or 16 and in her prime

[fiery burrow]

why unemployed 😭

[runic atlas]

Part of the personality

You can be employed but it has to be like kinda shitty

[jade canopy]

Anyway
I’m slowly realising that silksong will not come out this yeah (very slow to get it)
Kinda wild, im genuinely wondering what tc’s been up to since 2023
Like they were planning on releasing the game in winter 2023
So like
Now what ? What have they done in a year and half ? Are they still making new content, area bosses and shit ? That is kinda unbelievable

[opaque sigil]

balancing, polishing, tweaking, etc

[wheat sail]

wordle omg

[runic atlas]

That shit really does not take 1 and a half years

[opaque sigil]

there are all sorts of things they could be working on without inserting completely new content (which they may also still be doing)

[wheat sail]

They are cooking. Is that enough

[opaque sigil]

sure it can?

[wheat sail]

[runic atlas]

So they definitely also added more content

[fiery burrow]

Polish is a fairly broad term

[runic atlas]

I guess since they're like 2 people, but 1 and a half year is still very excessive for polishing imo

[runic atlas]

That is also true

[wheat sail]

KURWAAAA

[sand sequoia]

All speculation here. We don't know what they did, but it ranged from adding new content to testing, polishing, porting, whatever.

[jade canopy]

But like
A year and a half ?
I mean sure, polishing is important but like…
At some point you can’t polish forever, you’d just remove everything you poured !

[strange night]

Motorola is the best cellphone company iirc

[jade canopy]

Im not worried
It’s more that I wonder how much their work matters
Which is undoubtedly a completely fruitless thought

[fiery burrow]

I imagine they want all the tools and abilities and whatnot to feel really good which will take a while

[runic atlas]

What does that mean in what language again

[strange night]

Silksong got cancelled twenty years ago

[runic atlas]

But really, 1 and a half feels like a lot for just that

[full rune]

English only!!!!!!!!!

[fiery burrow]

its also worth noting that the 2023 window may have not been suuuuuper concrete

[jade canopy]

Bitch in polish ? Or something

[wheat sail]

a polish curse

(witch curse)

[runic atlas]

That's true, but still...

Ah well I gotta eat dinner

[wheat sail]

Oh reallyyy now

[jade canopy]

Sofia said that in rainbow six iirc

[sand sequoia]

Consider that the 2023 window was not actuall correct and Leth was just doing PR "we planned to release 1st half" when they didn't actually plan it.

[wheat sail]

i thought they released in 2023 what was i playing this whole time

[fiery burrow]

Nah xbox asked them

[sand sequoia]

I know that

[vivid belfry]

sonic.exe

[sand sequoia]

and Leth said "yea that's the plan" and also said he didn't know what they would do with it

[fiery burrow]

yeah

[jade canopy]

If we consider that what we know by a direct source is wrong
Then we should stop talking right now
No point to it

[sand sequoia]

I'd imagine they knew way sooner than May 2023 that it wasn't going to meet that deadline

[wheat sail]

[fiery burrow]

i think art may be taking a lot of time

[sand sequoia]

Yea, there is no point, we don't know what they are doing right now. They could've scrapped 25% of the game and are reworking stuff, who knows, haha.

[wheat sail]

not even team cherry knows

[fiery burrow]

Gorgeous, a lot more detail and better shading

[sand sequoia]

this is on the money

[fiery burrow]

And there's seemingly more variety and the spaces are all more open

[sand sequoia]

The only thing we actually know is Leth said he likes to play the game when it is near a finished state, and in August 2023 he said he was starting his second play through. At that point I thought, surely in 2024. But here we are.

[runic atlas]

Misinformation, banned

[wheat sail]

team cherry tried to keep the share of the money to only 3 people

and now their greed is slowing them down

smh

billions in revenue, increase scope of the game, dont get extra help
