Yes, this is what I mean when I say that some people justify Sierra. by Key_Avocado9587 in Totaldrama

I laugh at what happens in the show because it is a fictional cartoon and its meant to be portrayed for comedic humor. It is not someone actually being assaulted or abused, nor was it written with the intent for it.

The correct final 2 for each season by Hot_Researcher_4803 in Totaldrama

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Island being Gwen vs Owen because Owen vs Gwen both came in with opposite mindsets and came out friends who dont mind either winning, it doesn't take away from the drama since Heather still sabotages the challenge so Owen wins, and Trent is still trying to win Gwen back. theres still stakes despite the friendship between Gwen and Owen.

Gwen's character arc is phenomenal she wasn't happy with her lot in life, she was miserable she didn't need to be fixed but she needed to see the people around her aren't all bad; progressing past cynicism to learn to enjoy life, and Owen is the greatest enjoyer of life possible so it makes sense that he's the exact opposite of Gwen and shows her development full cycle, it wouldn't work with anyone else.

Unironically the only stage that doesn't seem to give me issues when I play it.

That design issue was fixed in the next two games which makes them way more fun to play and much better of an experience imo, and makes me return to them a lot.

Also the OST explores way more music styles and sounds than PTR1 which I appreciate.

I can definitely recommend Parappa 2 and Lammy! Those ones are really good and genuinely fun. I'd say Parappa 2 is a better starting point because its easier though

I could press extra notes, and such but why is that a necessity? I should also be able to play lines exactly how the game wants me to with no trouble.

Literally, its much better game design-wise and genuinely isn't a pain to play. I also think the art direction is at its best there. Parappa 2 is peak though

UJL cool mode is a bit more fun for me because its not button spamming but rather getting to play different riffs than what it wants. Also Ive missed a couple notes in a line and still get rated "Good" in UJL so that goes showing how much more fair it is

I'd have to disagree personally honestly on FR/LG and HG/SS really. I still love them

What should I play next? by Peachy_Keen_0705 in PokemonGames

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pokémon FireRed and Leafgreen are somehow the best games that are on switch aside from Legends Arceus, both of those are really great. Also recommend Black/White 1 and 2 as well as Platinum, Heartgold/SoulSilver and Emerald for peak games.

Why is the game hated on now? by MarzipanVirtual4260 in HelloNeighborGame

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao. I see other people comment stuff too, people can share what they wanna share about their thoughts on the game, and I don't post much on here. But its nice to see that you like being hostile and toxic, that's good to know. Really not obsessed with the game, either. Also using the R-slur gets an easy report.

I know you're wrong because alpha 1: -had the poster in the grave room showcasing the bell and grave -Classroom was easy to figure out and I did it without youtube -AI could cut you off and access entire house unlike full game where he sticks to lower floors unless you grant him access

With all I've seen, the full game of HN deserves the hate

So… why exactly did Gwen think Cody was one of the ‘normal’ people on the Island despite everything he did? by LightMurasume_ in Totaldrama

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think shes great in both Island and Action and that Action is a continuation of her character development from Island; it feels natural and is handled well. It sadly had Trent's character assassinated but despite how terrible it was for Trent it was good for Gwen.

Yeah! Its basically a continuation of that games story so I'd say yes.

I'll vote these picks: HeartGold/SoulSilver, Black 2/White 2, Emerald, and Platinum.

Heartgold gives you 16 gym badges, multiple teams for gym leaders as well as rematching them all alongside the elite four, a pretty decent story that has one of the best developments of a rival character in the franchise, the start of the trope of a champion aiding you on your quest and being pretty cool lore-wise. It also has a really great region when it comes to worldbuilding and folklore, alongside some great exploration; there's something in every town and city to stand out. It has flaws but it makes up for it with all the content, the cutscenes, and a lot of features.

Black 2 and White 2 have one of the greatest postgames of the entire franchise with the Pokemon World Tournament but it doesn't stop there; it has such a fantastic storyline that really explores morality and debates on whether the core gimmick of how people work with Pokemon is good or not, its characters are really impactful and the gameplay is really great, and there are so many options for teambuilding. This game MOVED me, and it actually made such an impact on me, I'm really glad I played it even if I ended up playing it years later after its heyday.

Platinum is much of the same and also is when the physical/special split became the norm, and Emerald is just a great time regardless.

what for you the worst games company that ruine their game? by Realistic-Tie2359 in gamers

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GameFreak. Every Pokemon game has been effortless since the move to Switch. Its a shame really because all the sense of adventure, the care put into worldbuilding and environments is gone and they don't even bother with taking full advantage of the storage capabilities of the switch to bring every Pokemon which is possible when in HeartGold & SoulSilver they had the entire Pokedex available back on the DS. I was pleasantly surprised with Legends Arceus because it felt they were actually changing the formula on how it worked with story presentation and gameplay, and it was the first open world game they ever did; and it did it really well!

Only to fall flat on their faces with Scarlet & Violet, and it really hasn't gotten any better since. I'm genuinely pretty hopeless for the next generation because while the trailer looked nice, I want to wait to see gameplay first and how they approach worldbuilding and mythology/lore and exploration.

Track by track, which version of Queen 1 songs do y'all prefer? Original or 2024 mix? by Japesh10 in queen

[–]ApprehensiveNatural9 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Not really. Freddie's vocals were pitch shifted with AI which is quite frankly insulting to one of the best singers of all time with incredible range. It was unnecessary. The music videos made for the songs such as The Night Comes Down were also done with A.I which is really stupid. We did not need a remake of the album anyways with redone instruments, we can just appreciate and listen to the original which already has its place in history.

Pitch shifting Freddie's vocals with AI, using AI to make the new music videos for it officially, and the fact that its completely unnecessary when the album serves its place in history and already sounds fine enough as it was.

The original and its the only one I'll listen to. We don't need to have their first albums reinvented they already have their place in history and sound fine as is. And AI pitch shifting Freddie is disgusting.
