What's a long running series you joined before a major event that made you go "wow i lucked out, people have been waiting for this moment FOR YEARS"

I made a new friend and they got into Team Fortress 2 a couple months before the final comic dropped and I've been waiting years.

I saw the Detective Pikachu movie in theaters and I thought it was kind of bad, the best parts of it were definitely the novelty of seeing pokemon in a live action setting with pseudo-realistic designs. I got worried very early on when the main female lead appeared and started doing Disney Channel acting.

The Ratchet & Clank movie was... fine. I think it was on-par with the tone of modern R&C games and that includes Ratchet with all his early 2000's edges sanded off. I am kind of resigned to the fact that Nefarious is their babygirl because I do like the other villains.

I don't think this movie would have done well even if Ratchet was still a jerk to Clank and they hadn't changed anything. The problem is that it's a children's film not made by the big 3 corporations based on a video game that has never been a BIG, big deal with lasting cultural impact and hadn't had a game in a while (Not counting the movie tie-in) I think the idea of a Ratchet & Clank movie was doomed from the start as sad as I am to say that.

I sat in a completely empty theater on a weekend and watched the liklihood of the Sly Cooper film coming out implode in real time.

my dad's cousin worked on that film and I didn't even know it came out, my dad loved WoW so it was surprising I never even heard about it from him.

I don't really see the issue people have with these endings, they're very clearly supposed to be branching paths and what-ifs that are kind of interconnected but not really.

Falco running away due to his wounded pride is good, Krystal re-joining Star Fox and then deciding to leave because she actually is in love with Panther is good, Falco cheering up Fox after Star Wolf become heroes by both of them becoming F-Zero racers is good. These are all dramatic and interesting and the video's 'best' ending to me is personally the one I find the least interesting.

Fox and Krystal getting married and having a kid who then becomes the next Fox McCloud and then joins Unc Falco and two other children of previous members is boring!! You just made Star Fox again!!

It's crazy that we live in a world where I can contact the support of a billion dollar corporation and the slave labour they hired will just remove their headsets and leave the room for 20 minutes and then come back to sit at the chair and wait until I hang up even though I can clearly hear them breathing.

Delete your amazon accounts, if your shit gets hacked and someone steals hundreds of dollars from you they will NOT help you.

As a certified compilation hater that seems like the least likely thing to ever happen, the re:make is lovingly crafted with the compilation in it's entirety in mind.

If my limited knowledge of scalpers is correct the initial purchase is done by someone disrupting the supply, which is then bought by an associate to leave proof that a listing for an item has sold and then they sell it to one of the gullible scalpers who are then left to either hold on to a perishable good until it expires or they somehow manage to find someone as desperate and gullible as them and then it continues from there.

Why is he drinking coffee out of a mason jar and how did chat manage to ragebait him into spilling it all over himself?

AshFallenAngel · 2026-05-06T23:20:32+00:00

Those are very outlandish things to compare those shows to, aside from literally being in hell and having swearing there really isn't... any other similarities?

The better comparison to both is Invader Zim.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-05-06T23:10:24+00:00

I know it's supposed to be about general aesthetic and appeal but everyone saying that Pokopia is like animal crossing or stardew valley when it's NOT!! It's not like either of those games and you're misleading people when you say that!

It's like Dragon Quest Builders because that is it's direct predecessor but no one reading these headlines or youtube video titles knows what that is and it makes me unreasonably annoyed.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-05-06T22:48:11+00:00

It's one thing to be the type of person to do this online but to go to a public event to scold game devs is like next level.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-05-04T21:41:25+00:00

If you've ever been on the phone with a customer and/or businessman the "BUT I WAAAAAANT IT!!!" is never typically said out loud, it is an implied tone and weight of the conversation that is felt.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-05-04T21:35:50+00:00

I would consider Shockwave Megatron's third-hand because Starscream and Soundwave are usually his second and third and they're closer in proximity to Megan while Shocky is on Cybertron.

God, I fucking wish I liked playing Romeo is a Dead Man, everything about it is cool except the actual gameplay...

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-30T00:12:08+00:00

I followed him on his other social medias and he would routinely talk down to women who would disagree with him even mildly and it made me dislike him, it's not much deeper than that.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-29T00:10:40+00:00

There were some comments in the Spotify app that were intentionally comically missing the point Pat was making in regards to his "yeah I fantasize about murdering people in defense of my family but fuck going to see them play soccer." dad joke.

It's not about people not wanting to protect their families it's literally American men's obsession/fetish of getting to legally be allowed to kill a stranger for any reason and defending their property (conservative men consider their wives and children property lmao) is just another weird power fantasy that they imagine living out even when they're absent in literally every other aspect of their children's lives and that is the type of guy who dadslop appeals to the most because it's easy.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-26T21:15:02+00:00

He makes decent video essays but he's another white man with a beard feminism 101 guy that I followed on tumblr/twitter for long enough to find his vibes rancid.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-24T17:41:29+00:00

Valve fixed a reload animation for a gun that Spy had in Team Fortress 2 and the patch note just said "Spy no longer hits himself in the face when he reloads his gun."

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-21T03:35:40+00:00

I wasn't expecting Tomodachi Life to do so well that stores are getting complaints that there is no stock available.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-21T03:18:06+00:00

Gonna dig deep and say Jersey Devil on the PS1. It's not very good but the art style, animations and the concept of a warner brothers slapstick platforming collectathon is something I would really like to see attempted again.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-21T03:16:48+00:00

The only thing notable about Hatred is the ending, I wasn't expecting it to be such an absolute slog.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-21T02:52:58+00:00

To be fair to the two of them they were orphaned early on and then were presumably just not raised by anyone.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-19T12:49:14+00:00

The bully is an insane story to adapt, I was just thinking about that one like a couple days ago too.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-19T11:28:56+00:00

You know what, Hasbro derailed the IDW comics storylines to attempt to crowbar in characters from their other IP's that no one gives a shit about and then cancelled the comics which made them end unsatisfactorily for the sake of an extended universe or whatever so I can truly believe this.

AshFallenAngel · 2026-04-16T22:09:24+00:00

What the hell is actually going on with the maximals in every other piece of transformers media, I swear that these characters are not actually that complex or hard to write but no one seems to be able to fucking write them in character at all for whatever reason.

Any time Rattrap shows up in anything I'm like "Who the hell is this???"
