off-topic

[neon shore]

No other point

[shut bane]

With the only purpose of creating an argument

Ofc

[neon shore]

Again, this is the entire point

To start an argument

[fast hearth]

heck by talking this much here online how many waste you caused?

more than a prompt

[waxen dagger]

I think exchanging of ideas is important for people to connect.

[neon shore]

This isn't connecting

[waxen dagger]

So we just aren't allowed to share ideas or talk about topics?

[neon shore]

It's two brick walls shouting at another lol

Nobody (including myself) came into this with an open mind

[fast hearth]

not really, basically people started to bash and judge the video without watching

[steel hollow]

AI can be good, but it is more often used in bad ways

[short blade]

Yeah sure lil' bro, let me go back to my warcrimes

[steel hollow]

That's what I think

[waxen dagger]

I agree with this

[neon shore]

You're more than allowed to. But you should know your place, and know where the line is.

[steel hollow]

Tbh you can probably say this about a lot of things

[fast hearth]

oh @short blade blocked me, im so sad...

[shut bane]

That vid was created with the sole purpose of making people fight and sending it here has that same objective

[neon shore]

Again, this is what I think too. Unfortunately y'all arguing for the bad right about now

[steel hollow]

That's about all I have to say

[neon shore]

Yeah wasn't talking about you, sorry for the lack of clarification

[steel hollow]

Anyways time to lurk in this specific channel to see what happens

[short blade]

(Yup, that person is a rage baiting channel)

[waxen dagger]

Really? I mean I didn't get that vibe from it though.

[fast hearth]

the description of video says otherwise

[neon shore]

Tempted to do that to see how long it takes for a mute

[shut bane]

I suggest dropping the topic because arguing for the sake of it in topics where no one will change their mind is stupid and yall wont get anything from it

[quartz obsidian]

Ah shit, i missed some juicy drama that i wasn't able to rumble about

i was reading gay shit

[fast hearth]

you're ok saber

[shut bane]

Ik

[fast hearth]

was reading what novel?

[quartz obsidian]

I was rereading a bl novel I love...just jumping randomly through random chapters in different hundreds cause I'm bored

[fast hearth]

why not read a new one?

[quartz obsidian]

I should tbh

I do have some lined up, i just need to make myself start it. If I start it I will be hooked, but I don't have that urge atm

I also would prefer to read something that I can familarise myself with with a manhwa perhaps so I know it's worth reading

[fast hearth]

i think you should read Houshin Engi, its an old one , but do have some hot men

[quartz obsidian]

wtf

is that a moomin?

[stable quest]

Wait wtf happened here

[waxen dagger]

Drama

[stable quest]

Oh come on how do i miss it everytime

[waxen dagger]

You missed it unfortunately

[stable quest]

What was the drama about

[short blade]

I wouldn't call that drama

[waxen dagger]

AI

[short blade]

Just a regular internet debate about AI

[stable quest]

Thank god i missed it

[waxen dagger]

Yea I agree just a casual debate lol

[quartz obsidian]

imagine being happy about missing drama

couldn't be me

[neon shore]

Calling it a debate is generous

[stable quest]

This is called not having drama standards

[short blade]

As far as internet goes, that's what a debate is

[quartz obsidian]

yeah...I said couldn't be me...

[waxen dagger]

Bruh could you stop being toxic and stop framing things like something else SMH.

[stable quest]

This is kind of making me want to scroll up

[waxen dagger]

Do it bro

[short blade]

It's really not worth it, there weren't any arguments made most of the time

[stable quest]

God dammit it starts with a video

[short blade]

Yeah and the rest of the debate is "watch the video" "no"

[stable quest]

No im not lowering my drama standards this much

[waxen dagger]

Hakim judging our drama lol

[stable quest]

Goodbye

[waxen dagger]

That's your perspective not mine.

[fast hearth]

there's 4 great chinese legends,

• Journey to the West the wukong/son goku [dragonball] is the most famous one.
  Houshing Engi based in one of them
• Romance of the Three Kingdoms
• Water Margin / Outlaws of the Marsh [which the suikoden series is based]
• The Investiture of the Gods [which Houshin Engi is based]

[neon shore]

And besides, the intention of posting the video was to ragebait

So it doesn't matter

[quartz obsidian]

lore drop

[neon shore]

It wasn't a genuine debate or discussion to begin with

So call it what you like, but you're wrong

That's all from me, enjoy the slop channel!

[unborn frigate]

But if I drop it it’ll spill everywhere

No wait, that’s tonic

[waxen dagger]

I don't see this was the intention this is your perspective as well.

[fast hearth]

theres like 2 houshin engi animes, a very old one that adapted the first arc of the manga pretty good, but had to alter the ending because the manga was still going. And a recent one that just speedruns everything like shit from a later arc while skipping 3 arcs before it.

[quartz obsidian]

animation studios try to make a good adaptation challenge impossible

[fast hearth]

the opening to both are good thought

[stable quest]

Man these matchups are unfair

Or maybe this is fine

[neon shore]

Vampire deck?

[stable quest]

No

Never call it a vampire deck ever again

I take great offense to that

[neon shore]

Well it's white black

Fair assumption

[stable quest]

Well shit i actually won

Ill take it

[neon shore]

A seven minute game?

Of commander???

[stable quest]

Its brawl so

[neon shore]

I prefer legacy tbh

[stable quest]

I really like commander type formats, i just wish some obviously op cards were banned already 😔

[neon shore]

Though that's in part due to it being both how I learned and how I deckbuild

[fast hearth]

but then you'd have to make a new deck

[neon shore]

But the obviously OP cards make them money

[waxen dagger]

This is exactly why power creep happens in CCGs so often

Helps sell cards

[neon shore]

Yeah...

Which sucks

I know it's a room temperature take, but I prefer MTG from 5-10 years ago

[quartz obsidian]

oooh, kinda ugly tho

[neon shore]

Also in part from not playing commander

[stable quest]

I can very easily replace dark ritual in my deck

[neon shore]

Oh they're not gonna ban Dark Ritual lol

That's a classic one

[stable quest]

Im just saying if my deck has any op cards that would get banned it would be dark ritual

[neon shore]

They didn't ban Sol Ring yet, did they?

[neon shore]

Do you run bubbling muck

[stable quest]

I dont think thats on arena

[neon shore]

Ah

I only play in person, don't know anything about Arena really

[neon shore]

And on Tabletop Sim with some distant friends

[stable quest]

Mojo jojo has drip, never disrespect my boy like that

[neon shore]

Yeah, can't forget the cape and dome

[stable quest]

I also just realized he wears high heels

[neon shore]

He does drag in his free time

[stable quest]

Vilgax stuff is metal so its cool

The top 2 are definitely femboys

[neon shore]

Pfft

4'8" Twink Darkseid

That is Darkseid, right?

Hakim, you wanna take a glance at an elf deck I made recently (as a budget thing for a new player) (ignore the playset of $10 cards those were added after showing them)

[stable quest]

I only play brawl tho

So i have no clue whats good on paper

[neon shore]

https://archidekt.com/decks/13787137/longears

Thats fine

It's a +1/+1 tribal deck

[stable quest]

Seems pretty cool

Isnt ambush commander a little risky tho

Turning all lands in 1/1s then getting hit by a boardwipe would make me weep

[neon shore]

Yeah, or you could get an army of 6/6s

[stable quest]

Oh yeah i guess they dont have summoning sickness

[neon shore]

As I did in my first match playing it

[stable quest]

That is kind of cool

[neon shore]

(I also had a 23/23)

[neon shore]

Also, lands played then count as non-humans, therefore triggering Wildborn Preserver

[waxen dagger]

Oh god guys they just recently started making mods for Umamusume

[quartz obsidian]

oh?

I will pay whoever transforms every single woman in that game into a man money

[waxen dagger]

Probably going to happen soon

[neon shore]

Turns out Elvish Archdruid is a fucking BROKEN card

[quartz obsidian]

Oh game banana has the mods

Same place where I get genshin and honkai mods

One of the mods is a cursed gold ship mod...the other is already an nsfw mod which is to be expected and then a meme hat mod...

[waxen dagger]

I bet the Yazuka is going to come after the dude who made the NSFW mod

[quartz obsidian]

Lmfao

The name of the guy who made it

Is literally hisoka

Go figure

[waxen dagger]

Oh god

[stable quest]

Yeah archdruid is stupid good in elfball

I think its legal in standard

[quartz obsidian]

hmm

i like the fire

but the characters look odd

ultron was better

[fast hearth]

the builds for standard are easier to set combos than commander

as in commander you have only 1 card of each, in a 100 cards pool

[stable quest]

After this new banlist maybe

[fast hearth]

in standard you can have more copies

and is a smaller pool

you can calculate chance of the cards you need appearing, risking chances way more

not a 1 in 100 chance

[neon shore]

I'm aware of how combos work between the two modes lol

[fast hearth]

i mean i never said that, just said that its easier to set them in standard, you have way more chances to set it

[neon shore]

It is

Another part of why I like the classic modes is because I actually get to use my combos lol

Rather than being forced to tutor everything

[fast hearth]

nowadays most people dont really rely on tutors, they still exist but not that used anymore

[alpine marsh]

[alpine marsh]

I only do about 1 career a day

I could go faster if I wasn't reading the stuff. I also have a ton of untouched story things I need to do..

I just hyperfocus on stuff I guess

mostly cuz it helps distract from the pain...

[waxen dagger]

Oh no are you ok?

prolly not but not much I can do in my situation. shrug

[waxen dagger]

Oh man well sorry to hear that.

[warm crest]

Here is something... Can something be off topic in the #off-topic channel ? You have 4 hours to write an essay of this thought

[short blade]

Yes

Well maybe not

I was about to say if you derail a convo

[quartz obsidian]

pokemon

that's all

do i get the max grade or?

[warm crest]

So @quartz obsidian concretely, this is off topic

[quartz obsidian]

yes ofc

they should be punished and we should be upholding the nation of pif

[warm crest]

But discussions against the rule are also off topic. So I can't give you the maximum grade

Bruh Chik Fil A is so good I would consider it

They even have secret menu items

[dense wasp]

i have the new hexiolit armor in palworld now, so now imma do the terraria stuff

You might wanna check on the palworld discord Silverr might be better

I would help but I haven't gotten that armor yet

Been playing Cyberpunk 2077 recently

[dense wasp]

they are asking about pokemon vi/scar

[fast hearth]

corpo ? nah probably nomad

[waxen dagger]

Yes Nomad you called me out

[fast hearth]

i feel like most players always pick nomad

corpo has the better start i think

[waxen dagger]

Yea that is what I heard I wanted more of a challenge

[fast hearth]

oh i dont mean regarding difficulty, but storywise

[waxen dagger]

Yea both story wise and in terms of the items you have.

Heard corpo gets you slightly better early game opportunities

Considering the game is so good I will probably do a Corpo run

[fast hearth]

the items are basically the same just having a different skin

no better gear or gear difference besides aesthetics

dialogue and storywise it gives more depth to the corpo world, but also nothing that makes it easier

[waxen dagger]

Didn't you have slightly different contacts that lead to different items or something?

[fast hearth]

they influence certain aspects, but it doesnt lock you away from anything

instead of doing X youll need to do Y

there are very few specific weapons or rewards linked to the background, but again the difference are usually cosmetic

[waxen dagger]

Ahh ok this makes sense

[fast hearth]

btw a tip, not spoilering
go to Heywood, Vista Del Rey, in an alley in the College Street area.
look for a blue Side Job called "Machine Gun".

[waxen dagger]

Is that the one with Regina Jones?

[fast hearth]

no, is not related to regina, and its a marker that only appears when you are near it

near an alley in Vista Del Rey (Heywood) in the College Street

[waxen dagger]

Ok on it thanks for the tip 🫡 this roach will now scatter away 🪳

[hard gazelle]

Do you guys think that Ridley from Metroid can beat a rancor from Star Wars.

[dense wasp]

ridley can kill mario so yes

[smoky siren]

Easily

[waxen dagger]

Yes I believe Ridley could do it Rancor's are too Fleshy. Meanwhile Ridley is made of metal like armor

[floral creek]

Idk much about metroid but I feel like the alien dragon space pirate that regularly fights Samus would be able to kill a Rancor

The rancor's just a big animal and it gets defeated by a metal door

[fast hearth]

so Jeff is the new Ai? a new version of james that randomly say 1 post perday?

Body: wants sleep due to getting carts in heat wave.
Brain: wants to continue furret run once I get home.
Stomach: wants ice cream due to it being hot.

With how brain would rather play games, I don't think I'm getting much sleep tonight... 😑

[upper trail]

Sleep it away bro

[waxen dagger]

You work in retail organizing the carts in the parking lot?

[ember canyon]

We have under 30 carts in this store I work at due to people stealing them and am the only one who can push the carts inside.
I also deal with cleaning, bottle room, and bagging groceries too.

[astral dagger]

What kind of animal takes shopping carts?

[waxen dagger]

Dman understaffed at overworked

[waxen dagger]

Mostly homeless people

[dense wasp]

our carts need money to be unlocked so people always return it to get their money back

[waxen dagger]

So you work at Aldi's?

[astral dagger]

It can't be that bad.

[dense wasp]

no?

why would aldis be unique for that lul

[waxen dagger]

Homeless people use it to carry their stuff.

[dense wasp]

thats just every store

[waxen dagger]

Ah here in America it is one of the few stories that does that.

[dense wasp]

well its not american so makes sense

[waxen dagger]

Yea Aldi's is german

[dense wasp]

america also hasnt figured out pfand yet i think

[waxen dagger]

Didn't know all German places did that

[ember canyon]

Actually it isn't just them. The apartments near hyvee have people taking carts because they don't want to carry it.
Does not matter to them the cart wheels lock

[waxen dagger]

Yea we hace cart wheel locking here in America.

[waxen dagger]

They still steal them as cover too from what I've seen

They put a tarp over the cart

Made a make shift cover from the rain

[ember canyon]

They even use them as a grill

[dense wasp]

in my store people sometimes took the shopping baskets, so now we just tell people they cant take em outside and if they wanna do it anyway, we either take one of their items or their id and they get it when they return the basket

[waxen dagger]

European Royal claims throne: five year war, tens of thousands perish.

Random Chinese man claims to be Jesus's brother: ten year war, tens of millions removed. Brutally.

[floral creek]

My store has people who try to take them sometimes too. Homeless people probably make up a big chunk of those people but I reckon there's still plenty of people who steal them purely because they want the cart

[waxen dagger]

Found a Digimon server... Again a DIGIMON server, that hates AI.
The hypocrisy IS strong in that one

[stable quest]

Digimon is ai generated??

[gloomy sonnet]

those things are completely unrelated lmao

[steel hollow]

On one hand, Digimon are kinda digital (or in other words, artificial) monsters and thus technically are AI, but like

That has nothing to do with current day AI

Current day AI didn't even exist back then

And AI definitely did not create Digimon

[gloomy sonnet]

yeah and its also a fictional piece of media

[fast hearth]

Not the point exactly more that Digimon are true ai

[gloomy sonnet]

thats like saying i found a sword art online group thats against locking people in a virtual reality world

[steel hollow]

Anyways, the only thing I actually know about Digimon is that they look badass

[gloomy sonnet]

except

you know..

[fast hearth]

Current day, but evolution of aí could create them

[waxen dagger]

I was just seeing a meme about this.

[fast hearth]

Pretty sure Most people would love a game like sword online, not tô bê locked into It, but for its existance

[gloomy sonnet]

you forget digimon exist now as a virtual pet

[waxen dagger]

I should watch Digimon just to see what it is about.

[dense wasp]

Big Daddy chillin

[gloomy sonnet]

idk about the show but the games are pretty good

[fast hearth]

Exactly, the virtual pet already exist, and with evolution of aí It could in some time evolve tô become something akin tô the anime

[waxen dagger]

Lol you haven't upgraded to the better version of the hotsprings it helps with recovery and work efficiency

[steel hollow]

Dragon Ball fans when they tell you they don't actually want biomechanical androids that love feeding on humans to exist: (Oh, the hypocrisy)

[hollow ermine]

The only thing Digimon I've been exposed to is when i watched Digimon fusion like 7 years ago

[dense wasp]

i mean i have, this is just a base for humans not my actual bas

[waxen dagger]

Never played the games etheir

[steel hollow]

I used to watch the digimon show like

Ages ago

I do not remember ANYTHING

[waxen dagger]

Ah ok I am super OCD so I just max out all of my bases with everything lol

[fast hearth]

Pretty sure they wont biomechanicals like Cell but like Android 17 and 18

[hollow ermine]

Yeah, the virtual pet has existed since the 90s, it's called a tamagotchi

[gloomy sonnet]

one piece fans when they dont want a tyrannical an oppressive government irl

[steel hollow]

Idk, they kinda destroyed the world in at least 1 alternate timeline

[waxen dagger]

Ever played neopets?

[steel hollow]

Would they?

[waxen dagger]

Woah are you a One Piece fan?

[hollow ermine]

No i was born in 2009

[waxen dagger]

I feel old now

[gloomy sonnet]

lol who isn't a one piece fan

[dense wasp]

i have a hard time doing that. once something is placed i have a very hardf time changing that, i still mostly use straw beds cause i just dont really wanna replace em

[waxen dagger]

Good point. I have a sneaky suspicion you really liked the Zou arc for a certain reason.

[gloomy sonnet]

im a bad fan tho i refuse to watch past the time skip

[fast hearth]

And thats why a Digimon server to bê against having better aí in the virtual pets is weird

[gloomy sonnet]

they fucked my girl robin up

[waxen dagger]

Ah that is actually kinda understandable. I mean pre timeskip has a different vibe

[dense wasp]

lul from hot to corpse in a towel

[hollow ermine]

There's a difference between a tamagotchi and a LLM

[dense wasp]

but after timeskip is still really good, i personally tho havent started egghead arc yet cause of how horrid the animation is

[waxen dagger]

It is polarizing animation some people really seem to like it some people really seem to hate it.

[gloomy sonnet]

idk my wife made me skip some filler episodes and i fell off of it after that

[fast hearth]

Yeah theres a huge difference, but not wanting a version of the virtual pet that IS closer tô the anime, again its weird

[waxen dagger]

Only filler worth watching is G8

[dense wasp]

the normal stguff is fine just the fights, just dont look good at all, i have no idea what people love about it, its so unfinished, i mean the garb getting mad talking scene looked straight up like you putting an image to a.i and telling it to make the head wobble

[waxen dagger]

G8 is peak fiction

[waxen dagger]

Lol I remmember you complaining about that.

like how does anyone think thats good

https://tenor.com/view/luffy-luffy-gear-5-lucci-one-piece-luffy-vs-lucci-gif-17703401397042170546

or that

[hollow ermine]

I haven't seen one piece but that doesn't look right

[dense wasp]

the second gif is how current OP fights are animated

[waxen dagger]

Yea some people have strong opinions of the animation lately.

[dense wasp]

just so unfinished but people be praising

[hollow ermine]

It looks like it's drawn with Paint3D

[fast hearth]

You picked bad examples tô complain because those animations are great

[dense wasp]

see i have no idea why you think that

[fast hearth]

And i dont even like one piece

[gloomy sonnet]

captain harlock

[waxen dagger]

See this is what I am saying some people really like the free form animation style

[waxen dagger]

Damn that is old

[hollow ermine]

That second one is not good

[gloomy sonnet]

i like old anime

[waxen dagger]

Ever watched Yu Yu Hakusho?

[hollow ermine]

Also why do you keep putting ^ above your o's

[fast hearth]

They emulate hand drawing on paper

[gloomy sonnet]

no but people keep telling me to watch it

[gloomy sonnet]

ill add it to the rotation lol

[hollow ermine]

I think the keyword is emulate, it's not hand drawn

[fast hearth]

I mean i know what i Said...

[waxen dagger]

It's really good. Very different from older anime. The author is actually Togashi same guy who did HxH

[waxen dagger]

Yea like I said man the new animation style is very polarizing

Although part of G5 Luffy is that he breaks out of the norm and bends reality. Makes sense that the art style reflects a more chaotic and free vibe.

[gloomy sonnet]

trigun

[fast hearth]

Its what i Said i dont even like one piece, but the new animation quality and style IS awesome.

[waxen dagger]

Is trigun any good?

[waxen dagger]

Yes I agree but some people really hate the animation.

[gloomy sonnet]

yes but the ending is pretty meh

[short blade]

Polarizing stuff is always either extremely overrated or extremely underrated for some reason

[gloomy sonnet]

at least in the og anime

[waxen dagger]

Right they made the remake.

[short blade]

Which, I guess, it the entire point of it being polarizing

[gloomy sonnet]

the remake is good idc

[short blade]

But you very rarely have people look at something polarizing and be like "I do not feel strongly about this"

[gloomy sonnet]

twink vash my beloved

[fast hearth]

Like wanna talk bad animation we have the new "Fist of the North star"

[gloomy sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/vash-the-stampede-vash-trigun-trigun-stampede-anime-gif-13454447220643711789

[hollow ermine]

Bends reality? Better get The Foundation to deal with that

[gloomy sonnet]

muah

[waxen dagger]

Dragon Ball Super's animation is terrible too remmember the Beerus vs Goku fight?

[waxen dagger]

The SCP?

[hollow ermine]

Yep

[dense wasp]

i mean its all animation its not specific to luffy lul

[hollow ermine]

Scranton Reality Anchors at the ready

[fast hearth]

Yesh It hád some awful animations for 90% of it

[waxen dagger]

Yea but part of the new direction with the art style is it is a new genesis the beginning of a new age hence why I am on board with it.

[waxen dagger]

Oh god but nothing compares to S2 of Blue Lock

https://tenor.com/view/blue-lock-blue-lock-season-2-lock-blue-season-gif-2493605926292987015

[fast hearth]

The Power point

[waxen dagger]

Literally power point presentation transition

I also remmember the soccer ball not rolling too while moving

[fast hearth]

I guess they were inspired by the First season of Record of Ragnarok

Lmao

[waxen dagger]

It looks like they just grabbed a PNG of the ball and dragged it

[waxen dagger]

I remmember the recent seasons of Seven Deadly Sins?

Oh god the Meliodas vs Escanor fight was total garbage

[short blade]

Remember that shitty animation is the default not the exception

[waxen dagger]

Naw there are some that are so exceptionally bad they are an outlier

[short blade]

Like old Anime often had beautiful styles but shitty animation

[fast hearth]

IS It ? But usually from big names you expect quality

[waxen dagger]

Yea remmember Akira

[short blade]

And I'm only saying animation to answer the "grabbed a png and dragged it"

[fast hearth]

How old you consider old ?

[waxen dagger]

Peak animation

[short blade]

Like 1990s stuff

[waxen dagger]

Akira is way older

[short blade]

Where you literally had close ups of character faces that were animated in literal frames

[fast hearth]

Theres a Lot of high quality animation that still holds today

[waxen dagger]

Yea ever watched My Friend Totoro?

[short blade]

True, I'm mostly going by what I know, which may be different from what you know

[short blade]

Animated series not movies

[waxen dagger]

Yu Yu Hakusho had great animation.

[waxen dagger]

Yu Yu Hakusho was 90s and it's animation was peak

[short blade]

Like early dragon ball and Z suffered from that, a lot of the Shoujos that were shown suffered from that, I believe city hunter suffered from that

[waxen dagger]

HxH 90s version was great

[short blade]

Captain Tsubasa definitely suffered from that at times

[waxen dagger]

Oh yea and what about Initial D

[short blade]

Doesn't initial D also have a lot of close ups that run at a very low frame?

[waxen dagger]

Evangelion had amazing animation too

[waxen dagger]

Yeap

[fast hearth]

Utena? Cowboy bebop? Evangelion ( despite me hating It) ? Rurouni Kenshin which the old one hás more quality than the remake

[waxen dagger]

Correct

Seems Nugat is forgetting all those brilliantly animated 90s shows

[short blade]

Because they just mostly weren't shown here

All that I had seen had scenes running at like 6/8 FPS

[waxen dagger]

Oh yea you're French right?

[short blade]

And once again, I'm not talking about art style

I'm talking about the quality of animation alone

How smooth the animations and backgrounds are

[waxen dagger]

Yes all the shows I listed had great animation quality and smoothness

[short blade]

How many animation tricks (close ups, repeated frames, etc.) were used

[waxen dagger]

Also higher FPS IMO doesn't make for better animation it all depends on the style

[short blade]

Like if you take an episode of Captain Tsubasa, DBZ or Yu-Gi-Oh, you can quickly tell when they repeat frames or animations to save on times and costs

[waxen dagger]

Yea those are all terrible compared to Evangelion, Yu Yu Hakusho, Ruroni Kenshin, ECT.

[fast hearth]

Heres the thing, when people compare the remake of rurouni Kenshin to the original, its a extreme downgrade of quality both in frames and in details. On top of the clear major diference in hypersaturation that makes the colors só bright in the remake

[short blade]

Yeah I'm not saying stuff is better now

[waxen dagger]

Yeap basically what happened with OG One Piece animation.

[short blade]

In fact I'm more of the side that a lot of popular Anime nowadays are style over substance

[waxen dagger]

I didn't like the redoing of the animations in the 16:9 aspect ratio

[short blade]

Like Solo Leveling is all style, no substance

[fast hearth]

Tokepi hás style and substance... Too much substance

[short blade]

It's a matter of trying to cut times and costs in animation

I haven't watched Demon Slayer, but it also seemed like the anime that had very little substance

[fast hearth]

I mean theres always popular anime like that, we hád demon Slayer

But not ALL popular anime are like that

[short blade]

Of course not

FMA Brotherhood for example, or Frieren

[astral dagger]

I feel that's always been the case.

[fast hearth]

Exactly

[quartz obsidian]

what a yap fest

[short blade]

Man I kinda feel like my childhood was full of shitty animation now

[gloomy sonnet]

sonic underground

[fast hearth]

Dandadan hás style and substance, tô bê hero X hás extreme style and actually substance

[astral dagger]

There's a distinction between old animes that are popular and old popular animes. I can't say I have ever been deep in the scene at any time but I am sure that contemporaries to FMA Brotherhood were 90% crap and then FMA and other classics we do remember today.

[short blade]

Actualy, there is ONE Anime I watched that I think wasn't trash

Fruits Basket

[quartz obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/kyoru-kyo-sohma-tohru-honda-fruits-basket-tohru-kyo-gif-25326561

[short blade]

"Homeless girl gets adopted by a family of furries"

[fast hearth]

I remembered another one

[gloomy sonnet]

3d anime is the future

[fast hearth]

CHOBITs

[waxen dagger]

I think so bro

[short blade]

I tried watching RWBY and couldn't

[short blade]

I LOVE the universe and the powers and everything, but I couldn't stand the art style

[gloomy sonnet]

im joking

[waxen dagger]

It's genuinely terrible

[short blade]

Crystalpunk is one of my favorite genres

[fast hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/peace-sign-anime-girl-hello-gif-22450366

[waxen dagger]

Ah lol

[gloomy sonnet]

although..

[short blade]

Then again, I never really watched anything besides Shoujos

[gloomy sonnet]

trigun stampede

[waxen dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/gohine-hohino-no-hohineee-gohineee-gif-17792172174678204487

[astral dagger]

I mean, does that count?

[gloomy sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/trigun-stampede-vash-the-stampede-fight-dodge-military-police-gif-27455450

[short blade]

It's the only 3D animated series I could think of

[waxen dagger]

I think the only good somewhat decent 3d animation IMO is probably MAPPA on JJK

[astral dagger]

It's an independent series from weebs rather than something produced with any sort of japanese sensibilities.

[waxen dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/jujutsu-kaisen-nanami-itadori-mahito-gif-19731767

[astral dagger]

Or, y'know, money.

[waxen dagger]

That fight was so peak

[gloomy sonnet]

red vs blue

[astral dagger]

I honestly cannot bring myself to particularly care about JJK.

[waxen dagger]

Damn I remmember watching that when it first came out in YouTube

[astral dagger]

It looks aight.

[gloomy sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/rvb-red-vs-blue-texas-gif-20384339

peak

[waxen dagger]

It's a bit generic

[astral dagger]

Cinema itself.

[waxen dagger]

Remmember the Tex vs Arbiters

[short blade]

Oh yeah JJK seems very generic

[waxen dagger]

That was awesome

[short blade]

So much that JJK suffers from the Nekketsu issue of "side character is more popular than main character, so now the author needs to address it"

[astral dagger]

People speak of it as if it's really good either in characters or style but the style looks, like, ok, it's hype and everything, and the characters are... meh.

[gloomy sonnet]

i like video games more than i like anime so i can forgive 3d animation

[astral dagger]

I don't get it.

Makes me feel like an old man.

[gloomy sonnet]

it feels like alot of anime fans cant tho

[gloomy sonnet]

unc

[astral dagger]

It can absolutely be done right but it doesn't happen often and translating 1:1 anime styles or going half-ass with realistic but anime faces looks ugly, not to mention the bunch of them that have very bad or mediocre quality in animation itself.

[waxen dagger]

I mean I think the author that does this best is probably Togashi.

[astral dagger]

Like, Berserk and the new Hokuto no Ken were and look like absolute buttcheeks, respectively.

It really hurts when an all-time classic or your favorite manga gets adapted like ass.

[waxen dagger]

I never watch Seinen for this reason I only read Seinen

[gloomy sonnet]

yeah ik what you mean. im a big fan of "anime inspired" animation styles

like uh

murder drones maybe?

[waxen dagger]

I am old so I will forever love the 90s style of animation

Only the good ones though

[astral dagger]

I need to watch it still :(

[short blade]

I kinda think we're also eating very well nowadays

[waxen dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/neon-genesis-evangelion-新世紀エヴァンゲリオン-anime-tumbling-gif-17768229

This was peak

[gloomy sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/murder-drones-v-from-murder-drones-dancing-sped-up-gif-17373262608138340351

[astral dagger]

But it's nice when creators use anime as inspiration because they recognize the good works rather than just because anime is the only thing they ever watch.

[waxen dagger]

Did you watch the new Gaslight district?

[gloomy sonnet]

yes

looks good

very good

[waxen dagger]

I liked the stylized animation too

[gloomy sonnet]

the premise and world building are also very good

a legit original idea

[waxen dagger]

I personally like Amazing Digital circus more in that respect.

[gloomy sonnet]

oof

[waxen dagger]

I am a sucker for existential dread

[gloomy sonnet]

i hate digital circus

[astral dagger]

It's the same creator, yeah?

[waxen dagger]

Yes

[astral dagger]

Figures.

[gloomy sonnet]

its been getting worse and worse in my opinion

[waxen dagger]

Yea this is a fair opinion to have

[astral dagger]

I greatly enjoy the clown.

[gloomy sonnet]

im not a fan of watching people standing around and talking

[gloomy sonnet]

i know what you are

[astral dagger]

Yeah my name is on display, I would be concerned if you didn't know who I am.

[astral dagger]

I do admit it has pretty cringe scenes and it's way too overt with what it tries to say and do but, like, I can allow myself a bit of mid every once in a while.

And the style is very nice so.

[waxen dagger]

My favorite character is Cain just because it is interesting seeing how the deluded god complex psyche is connected to his narcistic urges to feel loved by all. It is a classic tale of existential dread and immortality driving consciousness into oblivion.

Like I said I am a sucker for these philosophical arguments

[gloomy sonnet]

every character is just kinda annoying to me idk

also didnt like the maid dress bait thing in the last episode

[waxen dagger]

I think that is part of the idea and core plot they are all imperfect and have secrets.

[fast hearth]

the most recent one of good use is "to be hero x"

[waxen dagger]

Amazing digital circus legit reminds me of Lost for some reason hence why I vibe with it

[fast hearth]

also we had 3d uses in cyberpunk and arcane

[waxen dagger]

Yea that one was good too

[astral dagger]

Perfectly understandable. I don't think the format benefits it at all because they develop so slowly and the interactions between all of them are, as said, cringe a lot of times.

Isn't Arcane mostly 3D with post processing?

[gloomy sonnet]

yes

arcane my beloved

[astral dagger]

I honestly forgot about it for a good while since I didn't get around season 2, but that's a prime example of 3d executed how it should.

But that's because they've got money to spend and then some.

[gloomy sonnet]

arcane is only loosely anime inspired

im trying to think of other good 3d animation stuff

[fast hearth]

BEASTARS, land of lustrous ?

Dorohedoro ?

Knights of Sydonia?

Appleseed?

[gloomy sonnet]

didn't really like beastars

[fast hearth]

a lot of mecha and tech/scify anime used a lot of 3d

[gloomy sonnet]

not because of the animation it was just kinda boring

[fast hearth]

were talking animation, not about liking or not the content

oh right i forgot a very recent one that used 3d in several parts of it

https://tenor.com/view/chainsaw-man-anime-denji-power-makima-gif-26906664

this 3d talk made want to rewatch "Karas"

https://tenor.com/view/karas-anime-gif-21073944

[neon shore]

I enjoyed Beastars

[stable quest]

Ofcourse when the opponent needs card draw they get the best card for it

[dense wasp]

own fault

tho i think its just gonna be added as a casual game not for money

[quartz obsidian]

i wonder what rules they'll be going with

[prime badge]

i hope they let people stack +4's

just to watch the despair

[quartz obsidian]

like is a +2 a skip or just a pull of cards

there's stacking too!

[waxen dagger]

I thought this was a meme. Now I realize it is actually true.

[astral dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/not-yet-mace-windu-star-wars-gif-9797353

But eventually.

[dense wasp]

me when i lose 10k because i forgot to say Uno Uno

[waxen dagger]

I wonder if they will have like contact technology to detect when the card hits the deck to time the Uno

I feel you could cheat that.

https://tenor.com/view/card-game-mattel163-uno-plus-score-winning-gif-18018364

Now its a different pain 😔

My mother and sister and I play a variant (with a slightly different deck) called Uno: No Mercy, and it's hilariously fun.

There's some actual strategy to it~

[waxen dagger]

Wait till a company like EA goes bankrupt and then the origins game download servers go down and then I lose all my games on that server.

Also inevitably alot of always online DRM games will cease to exist and function

[short blade]

dat's me

[short blade]

This is why I have a separate drive full of my GOG installers

[waxen dagger]

Smart

[short blade]

But that only works with GOG sadly

[waxen dagger]

There are also some always online games that some modders have breathed life back into

[short blade]

The day steam goes down, your entire library turns into nothing

[short blade]

MONSTER HUNTER FRONTIER

[waxen dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-avengers-endgame-gone-reduced-to-atoms-gif-26539274

[short blade]

MH Frontier where surprisingly no server has turned P2W and you could even run your own private server if you wanted

[waxen dagger]

That and Starwars Battlefront 2 the OG

Man I feel old AF mentioning the OG battlefront 2

[short blade]

Yeah, 20 year old games

[waxen dagger]

WAIT WTF BATTLEFRONT 2 IS 20??!?!

https://tenor.com/view/aging-getting-old-gif-9803364

TF I knew it was old but not THAT old

That game is still peak though

[short blade]

DW, MH Frontier is 18

[waxen dagger]

Never played that game

[short blade]

Still the second best MH experience out there

[waxen dagger]

Yea old games hit different.

[short blade]

It's not as good as GU in my eyes, but it's very fun if you like throwing yourself at a brick wall

But like in a fun way

[waxen dagger]

I mean I have played the OG Darksouls when it first came out so yea

[short blade]

Like you have Exotic Uragaan who can just belly flop and one shot you from halfway across the arena, or Exotic Nargacuga who'll just do a double tail slam with absolutely not enough foreshadowing

And that's not even talking about supremacy monsters

[waxen dagger]

Damn that sounds crazy

I know Monster Hunter fans have a very tightly knit cult following

[short blade]

Frontier has a lot of bullshit going on

[waxen dagger]

I mean alot of games back then weren't hard because they were designed to be difficult but rather because certain aspects were poorly designed.

[short blade]

Oh yeah definitely

Which is why GU will always be the best MH experience for me, it's still difficult but much less jank

[waxen dagger]

Yea same goes with dark souls games DS1 and DS 2 were hard because their were poorly designed in many ways.

DS3 however is well designed and difficult because it is just straight up made to be hard.

Deaths feel less frustrating in DS3 because you feel it is your own fault IMO

Lol I remmember back in the DS 1 and 2 days I was so angry I smashed my head in between my closet room doors cause I was so angry.

I threw my controller too of course

[short blade]

I kinda want to play frontier again but solo it's way too hard unless you cheese

[waxen dagger]

I'll be real that is what I loved about those older games too. The cheese.

N64 was one of my favorite consoles for this reason

I used to cartridge tilt and I eventually got a game modding machine where I could modify the hexadecimal data in the N64

[short blade]

... I'm so stupid for not realizing that sooner

[waxen dagger]

Had hours of fun breaking Mario 64 and Zelda Ocarina of Time

[short blade]

Supremacy Monsters WERE the P2W of MH Frontier

[waxen dagger]

Oh I see

[short blade]

As in "you need to use that magic item that reduces damage you take by 70%"

[waxen dagger]

Ah so literal tier cliffing I see

Typical RPG stuff

[night summit]

there is many version of battlefront 2, i've played one on PSP for exemple

so 20 seems correct

[stable quest]

There was battlefront for the psp?

[waxen dagger]

Bruh I am talking PS2 era

[short blade]

... I've been playing Frontier on hard mode

[waxen dagger]

Yeap I played it as well

[night summit]

correct

[waxen dagger]

PSP was really ahead for it's time

Criminally underrated

[night summit]

i've loved this console so much

final fantasy dissidia was my main game on it

[waxen dagger]

Me and my dad used to play local multi-player with each other on Kill Zone liberation I believe?

[waxen dagger]

That one was fire. Did you every play metal gear solid peace walker?

Alot of people neglect that game but it was important for the story line in MGSV

[night summit]

no i've not, the only one i've play was MGR revengeance

[short blade]

I FORGOT I CAN GET A SABER SKIN IN FRONTIER

[waxen dagger]

Revengenace was fire from a gameplay perspective but as a fan of the MG and MGS lore it was kinda dissapointing.

[night summit]

i dunno the lore, slashing ennemy in a cyborg suit piloted by a psycho was fire enough for me

and the music

god

[waxen dagger]

The music was so good

[night summit]

so true

[waxen dagger]

Reminds me of devil may cry era music and xenoblade boss battle music

[night summit]

ho yeah devil may cry 3 music was very good too

one of them is still on my playlist

[waxen dagger]

Lol yea the game really makes you feel so overpowered. Although let me tell ya man MG and MGS fans take our lore very seriously.

[waxen dagger]

Were you in the era of playing Bayonetta games?

Those had a fire soundtrack too

[night summit]

never played them, but friends stream me and it was fire

[waxen dagger]

Yea the gameplay feels very reminiscent of devil may cry style and the music gives off that vibe

[night summit]

you know which game i want to play again ? Mass Effect

[waxen dagger]

They say the legendary remasters were really good. Buddy of mine played it and said they were really good.

[alpine marsh]

https://youtube.com/shorts/qi3wSqBRx1E?si=Q29cjJ0smfXxRFfP

[fast hearth]

back to SWTOR and my Sith Warrior Juggernaut who actually is 100% light side and scares the crap of everybody when they, a sith, acts good towards them making they second guess that its all a trap

[waxen dagger]

But which Mass Effect specifically?

1 2 or 3

Because we don't talk about Andromeda

[night summit]

legendary was quite good indeed, and got all the dlc included if i remember so was a good point

[waxen dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/encanto-pepa-madrigal-we-dont-talk-about-bruno-no-no-no-disney-gif-24935713

[waxen dagger]

Yea reminds me of the masterchief collection

That was fire

[night summit]

you're quite hard on this game, i've play it and he was really good in fact

[waxen dagger]

Yea I bought it and returned it immediately.

[night summit]

the only point people was piss of by it was " there is no Shepard on it "

come on it's a complete different group of people

with there own story

it was not as good as 1/2/3, but still a good game

[fast hearth]

i mean idk WHEN you played, because for a long time it was full of gamebreaking bugs, but i agree that andromeda is uninteresting for 70% of the story, but the ending/final arc is awesome

[waxen dagger]

Idk man there were wayyyy more complaints than that. I personally didn't like how the game performed and those creepy uncanny valley facial expresssions

[alpine marsh]

https://youtube.com/shorts/lJqnL9zDafY?si=lF96tp1HzKWUaR_0

[waxen dagger]

I bought it used 2 months after released.

Couldn't stand it.

[night summit]

remembering that all recent games are quite unplayable the first few month

[fast hearth]

yeah it was still very broken

[waxen dagger]

Yea I have started playing Cyberpunk 2077 and turns out it was horrible the first few months

Game is amazing now though

[night summit]

yeah but it's for an other reason

to much people pre-purchassed the game, so the dev was pressuring to releasing it on date by sellers

[waxen dagger]

They should just delay games more often

[night summit]

even thought they've said " our game need few more month "

[waxen dagger]

I mean GTA 5 was delayed twice and it turned out great

[astral dagger]

They should not announce the game to begin with if it's not at least silver.

[night summit]

they've delay it 2 times, and the sellers was like " no third delay, released it now "

[astral dagger]

Mfs be announcing the thing when they've got an Unreal bean with movement in a flat map.

[waxen dagger]

I remmember back in the olden days when updates didn't exist you just had to finish the game before release

[night summit]

and after few month, they released a patch as big as the whole base game

[waxen dagger]

Damn that is crazy

[night summit]

was funny to people connecting and seeing a 70GO correcting patch

[gloomy sonnet]

the kingdom hearts 3 effect

[fast hearth]

it still had several bugs on release

[waxen dagger]

Yea I heard about that. It was halarious the patch was bigger than the base game.

Which is insane

[astral dagger]

The every game since the 2010s effect.

[astral dagger]

It honestly pisses me off.

[waxen dagger]

That momment when the update is larger than the original download of the game

[night summit]

you know there was big problem

[astral dagger]

They should just blow up every server that allows for online updates and see if they make a whole game before releasing it.

[waxen dagger]

Damn you sound like the dude from cyberpunk

I might be an asshole but I can't be that bad.

[stable quest]

Is that keanu reeves

[waxen dagger]

Yes

[astral dagger]

One and only.

[night summit]

indeed

[stable quest]

Keanu reeves cant be an asshole

[astral dagger]

Mr Celebrity appearance himself.

Half the budget of the game I bet.

[stable quest]

Bad game design thats why it flopped

[night summit]

no, but silverhand is a perfect asshole the whole game

[waxen dagger]

They couldn't have picked a better candidate for other duetagonist

Keanu reeves is phenomenal in Cyberpunk 2077

I just almost tried to abbreviate Cyberpunk 0_0 never again.

[short blade]

I wouldn't be surprised if he chose to be paid as much as a regular VA

[waxen dagger]

Well idk Hakim the game is amazing

I was skeptical at first considering all the bad reviews it got but once they fixed it it is great.

[short blade]

flopped?

[stable quest]

I see everyone has missed the joke

[astral dagger]

I doubt so. The guy is nice and all but I don't trust anyone with an acting career anymore.

[waxen dagger]

The initial release did flop

[astral dagger]

Me stuff.

[stable quest]

Im not explaining it

[short blade]

Oh yeah maybe

Like No Man's Sky

[waxen dagger]

Ohhhhhhh yea... I get it lol

[stable quest]

Explain it

[short blade]

Eh, dude plays in whatever he wants apparently

Like he did a cameo in a spongebob movie of all places, but reportedly turned down more lucrative projects

[astral dagger]

So do most stars his caliber and they can still be assholes or partake in the bad parts of the industry and just not say it.

They all eventually come down with something and I am not having it.

[stable quest]

I see zoro has died

[short blade]

It depends on your level of "something", because we all have skeletons in our closets, some bigger than others

[stable quest]

Wait what

[astral dagger]

You know, the thing.

The incident.

That kinda something.

[stable quest]

Are we just gonna gloss over the fact that they have a skeleton in their closet?

[short blade]

Skeletons, plural

[stable quest]

Multiple??

[waxen dagger]

The joke is that the teraflop performance wasn't enough for the game?

Idk if your making a computer science joke

[stable quest]

There was no joke i just hate cyberpunk

[waxen dagger]

Why do you hate Cyberpunk?

[high marsh]

Lets not have that, cool, ty

[astral dagger]

Oh c'mon it's a Solid JJ video.

[waxen dagger]

I thought that video would get nuked lol

[high marsh]

oh c'mon i dont care

[waxen dagger]

Solid JJ is one of my favorite YouTubers

[astral dagger]

And for good reason.

[waxen dagger]

Although alot of his videos aren't allowed due to the strict rules here

[short blade]

I mean I'm more than sure a few of the people lurking here are underage

[waxen dagger]

Yeap

[stable quest]

Lmao you can continue watching a video on discord after its been deleted

[astral dagger]

Bruh

[alpine marsh]

https://youtube.com/shorts/SVPr1jWgvAQ?si=Voh1_JgiVi0cSxDL

[waxen dagger]

Probably because it works on embedding.

[soft scroll]

The joke is about xavior implanting memories, because mindcontrol is a bs power.

[stable quest]

The hell did scott tho i couldnt hear it well

[waxen dagger]

Trust me you don't want to know.

👀

[short blade]

It's my favorite subset of power in a specific setting

[soft scroll]

Might have seen the title as being different

[stable quest]

Great now i have to look it up

[high marsh]

I'd say a video full of holocaust references among other things is not quite desirable in a discord with lots of underage people.
Nothing so bad that I would enforce anything - just a quick reminder.

[short blade]

The power to constraint people to your words. Sounds OP, is a real nightmare to use

[waxen dagger]

I can DM you the explaination

[stable quest]

What do i even search on youtube? Trauma beam?

[stable quest]

No thats ok

[night summit]

plus it's a pokemon server, so it's quite not the public target for that

[high marsh]

Ehh, in off topic the "pokemon" thing kind of out the window IMO

but the point is clear, no big deal

[wicked plover]

why are all sprites so bad these days `??

[soft scroll]

Well, that's kinda a non-starter of a statement.

[short blade]

?tag resetcache I assume that's your issue

[pliant nova]

For missing sprites on the 6.6 update, talk to the help man in any Pokémon center and navigate to Advanced Options -> Other -> Reset -> Clear Sprite Cache. Video

[high marsh]

Wait, it looks like you didnt make any sprites.

crazy

[wicked plover]

i didnt but the normal ones in game look so off dont they

they were better in the past

[high marsh]

nahh, disagree

[stable quest]

They look exactly the same

[wild pelican]

At this point I think Cicero is having a cache issue

[wicked plover]

do i?

[wild pelican]

I don't know, do you?

[short blade]

What do you mean they look off?

[stable quest]

Are all your sprites question marks

[wild pelican]

or autogens

[wicked plover]

i think autogens

[high marsh]

nahh thats custom

[stable quest]

Thats just how slurpuff looks

[high marsh]

and actually pretty good shading

quality sprite

[short blade]

Yeah, it's a good "mix" sprite

(Insert the calvin meme with "mix" and "reference" sprites)

[stable quest]

Also this is off topic

[wicked plover]

so nothing wrong with my game ?

[astral dagger]

The sprites are what they are, a shame you don't like what you've seen, but you should be able to customize that, yah?

[high marsh]

Nope, those look perfectly fine

[stable quest]

No

[short blade]

Wait aren't you supposed not to use black outline? 😮

[astral dagger]

You can go to the pokedex and select which sprite is shown for mons you've seen, or when you get them for the first time.

[stable quest]

Mhm kendrick duckworth

[wild pelican]

You're not supposed to only use black outline

[short blade]

Ah got it

[high marsh]

some sprites will be simple asset swaps, some will be custom models, some will be nottomention level.
Sprites come in different types, and we love all spriters for what they make

[astral dagger]

Who

[stable quest]

Forget about it

[astral dagger]

Aight?

[short blade]

I swear, I'm gonna give a gun to a baby

Because my Rimworld modlist just. won't. work. properly

AND IT'S ONLY 270 MODS

[waxen dagger]

Those are rookie numbers bro

[short blade]

Exactly

That's a moderate Rimworld modlist

Especially considering half of it is the very carefully maintained Vanilla Expanded set of mods

(Tangent : Vanilla Expanded is the exact example of "die a hero or see yourself live long enough to become the villain", they were fed up with OP mods breaking game balance... And now they became the OP mod breaking game balance)

[dense wasp]

my rimworld broke after steam did an update i always had it on offline mode specially so it wont, but then i wanted to check something and forgot about rimworld and it updated withoput me realising and my mods broke and then my world...and sicne then i just ddint feel like playing again

[waxen dagger]

Even in Minecraft I have played mod packs with 300+ mods

[short blade]

When you lose a huge modpack and come back after a while it's so depressing

The main reason why I probably won't play Skyrim again

I just can't be bothered to find my 500+ mods again in the millions of mods that exist

[high marsh]

Wabbajack

[waxen dagger]

Yea it is alot of work

[dense wasp]

my base, every room was a different tech mod, it was just about my oc being a very genius scientist so no challenge run or anything, just for the fun

[waxen dagger]

That is one of the coolest weapons ever.

[short blade]

Man SoS2 looks so much cooler than grav ships

[high marsh]

Also a modding tool which will do all the work for you with insane curated and compatibility patched modlists

[waxen dagger]

I personally think modded Factorio is underrated

[alpine marsh]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5c-gmeEnx7s

[dense wasp]

then i turned it into a spaceship...which took forever cause i had to take down every wall and floor and put in ship parts

[waxen dagger]

FTL vibes

[short blade]

My grav ship looks like a brick

It is pretty much a brick

[waxen dagger]

Based capcom

[short blade]

But it works now

Time to make a new colony that's more fun

[dense wasp]

not even symmterical aaaa

[short blade]

Yeah because you gotta go find the tiles for the floor in structures around the world

So you gotta ration your rooms

don't mind the oversized bathroom, that was supposed to be part of the water treatment facility

[fast hearth]

dont praise it yet, it can still have microtransactions, also capcom still have not given us Dino Crisis remake

[short blade]

Wasn't 1985 already after the first fight against child violence?

I don't want to vent, but my dad had violent parent and he did not turn out okay

[fast hearth]

i mean, if laws truly changed things and made it stop, there would not be murders for centuries now

[fast hearth]

and for any number of cases like that, there's also cases of making some people better

or that say that they needed that to get better

[minor estuary]

I need help

[fast hearth]

what even happened?

[hollow ermine]

#tech-support

[short blade]

As with everything, balance is key

I'm not saying he had parents who discplined him mind you

I'm saying violent parents as in abusive

[fast hearth]

oh yeah, there's a fine line between them

[fast hearth]

also please, clean that screen, and the laptop in general.. so much dust, look at those keys

[civic torrent]

Yall know any good places fromthe fantastic four series that would work as a good starting route (for a fakemon region)

and maybe any other routes that would come after that (gotta make a path)

This feels awfully on topic

[steel hollow]

I think Daytime EoL is objectively harder than Moon Lord, but tbh, I struggle far less for EoL than ML

I usually beat Duke before EoL, and Bubble Gun shreds her so fast that you don't even need to dodge much at all

You can't kill ML anywhere close to as quickly with an on tier weapon
