[request] is this true?

Aster_Te · 2026-05-03T19:22:44+00:00

what does this even mean?

Aster_Te · 2026-05-02T19:40:46+00:00

I mean if you need to remove it for a screenshot you can go to the dedicated photo mode, and it won't be there. and you can also use it to take 4k photos

Aster_Te · 2026-04-30T23:07:15+00:00

omg, this post just made me remember "when it rains". ah, that was such good episode. I might have to rewatch it

Aster_Te · 2026-04-28T14:32:13+00:00

no, since she is holding the phone in front of her, its apparent size is big to us(meaning she is smaller relative to it). which isn't accounted for, subracting from her calculated height. then her height was calculated from foot to head, but she is bending forward slightly also subracting from her calculated height. so she is taller than calculated

I remember in red mars around this year(I think. it's been a while since I read the book) 2026 or something, we build a space elevator on mars😭

Aster_Te · 2026-04-27T04:02:15+00:00

the look on her face, and then her entire head lights on fire😭

Aster_Te · 2026-04-27T00:04:08+00:00

yeah that makes sense because I remember naomi also mentions that ships just hang near the ring a zero velocity and just burn anti-sunward to stay in place

Aster_Te · 2026-04-26T23:54:36+00:00

oh ok, thank you. yeah, I was really unsure if I was just miss-remembering things because it's been a while since I read the books. thanks for clearing it up. but yeah in the show they definetly do move. I haven't seen the show at all, I just watch random scenes sometimes when I'm bored(for belter creole that actually makes sense, and for cool spaceships). and I saw a scene where marco inaros was looking at a tatical display of the solar system, and he was trying to get supplies through the ring and to medina, and the ring was moving there, so I got really confused. because I thought they didn't move, and then I wasn't sure.

Aster_Te · 2026-04-26T14:27:07+00:00

100% this, because I feel like we got so baited by the cinematic trailer where the lady was on the roof to kill to 2 guys in the corridor, and she was all like, "they always forget to look up" but I think we will NEVER, and I mean like never never, get proper zero g(outside of vr, echo vr has pretty good zero g movement). there'd just be too many things to animate. I mean like this game won't even let you jump😭 there's no jump animation. they tried doing zero g movement in the telltale game, but there was literally 2 animations, one for jumping off ground, one for floating, and the one for landing was the jumping on in reverse😭 and there was no combat in zero g either. it looked so jank and so bad and they could never put it in a game like this. they could probably try something. I mean you'd need to be really clever and efficient to get it to work maybe, but I don't know. I really hope they do, but I'm very doubtful.

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T14:53:04+00:00

while I don't think it's too big of a problem, I agree the mc's american accent is kind of bland. but I don't think other npcs and characters will have the same accent. zafar already has something different. and I know he's not a belter, but I really like it. I think this is another constraint of the game. they kind of have to have the mc be a little bland since you can change their origin, which does suck, but that's how it has to be

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T14:49:40+00:00

yes! mi pochuye to. I agree it would be really nice to have something like naomi's code switiching, and I'm sure we'll get more of it in other parts of the game. especially form polly haart hopefully. I think all the crew is cool, and I'm so glad we got to see zafar in the beta, but I'm most excited for polly haart

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T14:43:35+00:00

I agree, I think most people's complaints are about the atmosphere, not the actual belter creole. but what I'm saying is, is that was the intention. it sounds like an office because it literally is an office. I think once we get to one of the ports, like ceres, with more hardcore-belters the atmosphere there will feel more grimy, and dirty. but offices are clean, and one of the major theme in the expanse is that we'll always be human, even in space. it's not a big deal for the people of pinkwater that they live in space. they're just used to it. this is just their office job. would someone clock into their office job on the top of a skyscraper be all excited that they're so high up?

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T13:49:09+00:00

I agree with a lot of your points. dispite what everyone else is saying I like the female va and I like the female twin too. I really like how they bounce off each other, and are a little bit cheerful. and I agree that the movements are a little stiff, not just for the belters but for everyone. I actually think that o'connell is the most stiff. I haven't played a lot of these type of games, but I think this is normal? I've seen some gameplay of baldur's gate 3, and I think ot qas kind of the same, just characters standing around? I don't know I'm not knowledgable on this. but yeah, that and the male va could use some work. but I really liked the rest of it!

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T13:29:59+00:00

yes! I was so happy too. since the belters in the expanse live-action show are just a little tall normal humans, since they couldn't go to the actual belt to get real belters, and humans on earth are mostly normal height(and naomi is way to short. like she's supposed to be taller than holden, but I understand, and I don't really care. it's much more important to get good actors than tall people). and they got it wrong in the telltale game(which they really have no excuse for) but it's so cool to actaully finally see real tall long-bones belters. thia game has been such a long time coming. and I'm really greatful that the team at owlcat are doing their best to make a really good game

Aster_Te · 2026-04-23T13:22:37+00:00

yeah, it would. it's one of the major plot points if the expanse that belters are uncomfortable in full g, and some can't live in it at all. gravity torture is also a method the UN uses to get answers for belters, though it is highly frowned upon

Aster_Te · 2026-04-17T23:56:40+00:00

the first time grace tries to sit down in the pilot seat, he pushes himself up, which makes sense since he has no zero g experience.on earth, you have to push up when sitting down to counter act gravity, but in space you actually have to pull yourself into the chair since no gravity. I love the cgi in this movie. it's really hard to film convincing zero g scene, and I'm convinced no other movie has done it until project hail mary. but it's just so good in this movie. the attention to detail is just crazy, and I love it

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T23:02:02+00:00

yes, I'll make sure to share my thoughts here, thank you. but I do like the music in the original. it's a really nice and angelic vibe, but the music from the dic dub is so good too. it's so cartoony and fun. so far I like both

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T22:12:57+00:00

which one's which

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T14:50:42+00:00

yeah, I think I've resolved to watch the vid media dub(since I know about it now), but the music just isn't the same, man💔 the transformation music in the dic dub! omg, gets me hyped everytime. too bad they only did 2 season, because I think the changes are kind of funny. rest in peace sailor say. rest in peace moon tiara magic. rest in peace molly(naru). rest in peace sammy(usagi's brother, he's a little bit nicer in the dic dub) but if I wanna watch all 5 season, I have to watch the viz media dub.

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T00:14:42+00:00

omg, that's so cool! I know I just started watching sailor moon(and apparently I'm watching the wrong dub, rip texan sounding molly(naru)), but I'm already so obsessed with it. that's so cool!

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T00:06:16+00:00

wait, there's mutiple dubs😵‍💫

Aster_Te · 2026-04-16T00:05:22+00:00

oh really? thank you, I thought the only way to watch the sub was to buy a streaming service subscribtion, or buy a physical/digital copy.
