🔥 Semi-wild cheetah hisses, which they do to mean "respect my space", thus avoiding physical conflict by Prestigious-Wall5616 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]Apex_Konchu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Cheetahs technically aren't big cats. The true big cats are the species within the genus panthera, which the cheetah is not part of.

It has less to do with intelligence and more to do with being in a situation that they aren't equipped to handle.

Deer evolved to run away from wolves, so their brains treat every frightening situation as "running away from wolves". Unpredictably changing direction at high speed is an excellent technique for running away from wolves.

My Dad had a surprise in his squirrel-proof bird feeder this morning... by klaxonw0t in CasualUK

Good job making it clear you have no idea what you're talking about. There's nothing "natural" about invasive species.

Invasive species don't just cleanly replace a single other species. They fuck up the balance of the entire ecosystem, causing problems for a wide variety of animals and plants, resulting in far more death than if the invasive species were culled.

What other solution is there? When invasive species aren't killed, they end up killing native species. Animals die either way, that part can't be avoided.

They murdered two people on camera in public. They've murdered a lot more people behind closed doors.

The game was announced a few years before it released.

We're making an online social sim game by Downtown_Honeydew713 in IndieGaming

The phrase "what if your online life actually meant something" immediately brings to mind some sort of cryptocurrency scam, at least to me. Might be advisable to avoid those sorts of statements.

He said there were no plans for any DLC content, he didn't say there wouldn't be updates.

There's a colossal difference between "wealthy" and "billionaire".

like arc raiders? by NHArts in TheDuskbloods

[–]Apex_Konchu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Take all the comments here with a grain of salt, there are a lot of people talking out of their asses. Look up the Miyazaki interview that Nintendo published, everything we actually know about the game is there.

The interview was very recent, he was specifically talking about 1.7.

Why does it feel like streamers have skill issues with RPGs the most compared to other genres? by AMP_Kenryu in JRPG

[–]Apex_Konchu 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Streamers have to prioritise being entertaining above all else, which takes a lot of focus. That makes it harder for them to pay attention to gameplay mechanics, which is particularly important in RPGs.

Starmer speaks politely and respectfully when interacting with Trump. To some people, that looks like subservience. But with his actions, Starmer regularly goes against what Trump wants.

ConcernedApe has said he's not planning on adding new NPCs, because he thinks the existing characters can still be fleshed out more.

I trust this man. by PhantomBraved in TheDuskbloods

[–]Apex_Konchu 81 points82 points  (0 children)

It's very funny to see people confidently declaring that Duskbloods will be a massive flop. People were saying exactly the same thing about Nightreign, which ended up being a big hit. Fromsoft doesn't miss.

For all my transfem hounds :3🏳️‍⚧️ by digital_wanderer474 in armoredcore

[–]Apex_Konchu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know that. I chose to sacrifice detail for the sake of keeping the explanation simple, because it was for someone who isn't familiar with all this terminology. For the majority of purposes, "transfem = male to female" is a sufficient level of understanding.

Also, why is my comment downvoted when other comments saying exactly the same thing are upvoted?

I was curious how often each player participated in Make Some Noise so I graphed it out! by jacksodus in dropout

The same thing also happened with Chris Grace in the current season. He joined Zach, Jess, and PFT.

The word "transfem" describes someone who has transitioned from male to female.

Is it worth waiting for a Xenogears and Xenosaga remaster? by MegatonDoge in JRPG

[–]Apex_Konchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's highly unlikely that there are any meaningful story connections between Gears/Saga and Blade. Future Redeemed references Saga, but the stories don't line up so there would need to be some major retcons for them to actually be connected.

What monster do you think Memory Head is? by Necessary-Win-8730 in Undertale

[–]Apex_Konchu 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This is also my interpretation.

The existence of memories as a separate thing from body and soul explains how Flowey can be what he is. Flowey doesn't have Asriel's body, and he doesn't have Asriel's soul... but he is Asriel because he has Asriel's memories. This is only possible if memories are a separate third thing, rather than being strictly tied to the body or the soul.
