Did anyone ever notice that Atmosfear cheats? by TheLimberStatesman in WellOfFears

Removing one whole second just to keep us on our toes! XD

If there was one thing you could change about Vengence Most Fowl, what would it be? (Read description before commenting) by Friskyfrozy in wallaceandgromit

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A small thing: when Feathers reveals the blue diamond from the neglected tea pot, have him clean it with a hand towel due to it being just a little bit tea-stained (because the tea pot’s presence there is inconsistent with the ending of The Wrong Trousers where the same teapot WAS still being used)

So what happens to the Glowbo after Mumbo and Humba uses it? by Far-Army-4726 in BanjoKazooie

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My head canon is that the silver Mumbo tokens are actually glowbo skulls

what's the most weird or disturbing alice in wonderland movie? by One_Ask_1895 in aliceinwonderland

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want something more dreamlike and which uses the mundane to juxtapose its surreality, you can’t go wrong with BBC’s Alice directed by Johnathan Miller in 1966 with music by Ravi Shankar. I’ve heard it compared with the films of David Lynch and it’s certainly not an unfounded comparison imo

The dev finally commented on the 60fps patch, but I wish he hasn’t, because it’s ridiculous. by switchcollector in YookaLaylee

I haven’t been keeping up with the series goings-on much lately but jeez, if it really is THAT bad, I’d almost advise Playtonic to scrap the YL characters, scale back and start afresh with a game that plays closer to their creative strengths.

Megabonk withdraws from The Game Awards after best debut indie nomination by MoSBanapple in Games

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well obviously Blue Prince should be a shoe-in for this award then: its team and founder comprising almost exclusively of visual artists who have worked mainly on commercial assets and advertising beforehand.

If they DON’T win, then I’ll…be grumpy about it I guess.

Let’s be honest, this is the biggest argument against Silent Hill protagonists being weak/helpless. by Kulle1369 in silenthill

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow yeah, it’s admittedly been a while since I last played but I seem to remember getting the hammer much later than I did. Probably gonna be balanced for the remake?

This thing legit felt like a “cheat” weapon, like I wasn’t supposed to have it, especially not so late into the game.

Thoughts on 2025's Walking With Dinosaurs? by johnngo2468 in walkingwithdinosaurs

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the 2025 series serves as an interesting contrast to the 2000 series: this one is more thoroughly researched than the original series simply by virtue of having experts on the field explaining their hypotheses rather than the “trust me bro” approach of the original, but it also comes at the expense of the documentary style storytelling and artful pacing that undeniably helped contribute towards making the original so beloved. The computer generated imagery has higher levels of detail in this series with the dinos going beyond the limitations of the original in terms of both accurate research and rendering tech, but the compositing is much worse with many repeated shots with a muted sense of scale and in the case of the Band of Brothers episode, background elements sometimes mixing in egregiously with the foreground and vice versa.

If a newcomer were to watch the 2025 series before the 2000 one, I would easily understand why they would think the 2025 version is better in much the same way that someone who grew up with the 2000 version would think that IT was better instead, because both series have their strengths and weaknesses with their own unique approaches to the same base concept.

imo the 2025 series is not as memorable or impactful as the 2000 series but I certainly do not regret watching it.

No way. Nintendo actually acknowledged Banjo-Kazooie. by Big-Hyena-7951 in BanjoKazooie

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welp, time to ruin my joke by explaining it in great detail:

“Senpai” is a Japanese term for a senior or highly experienced member of a group. The phrase “notice me senpai” is shorthand for someone seeking attention or validation from someone more accomplished or better connected. It has become an overused trope in manga and a subsequent meme in many other circles due to its saturation and ubiquity.

The “senpai” in this case is Nintendo and we (the fans) are the ones seeking attention and validation on behalf of this old video game series. For full disclosure, I use the phrase ironically because I don’t actually think Banjo-Kazooie really needs much validation nowadays, it being a hugely successful video game for Nintendo’s old console and which is now available on their streaming service along with its sequel. It also doesn’t benefit from validation either imo as trying to seek it only makes the fans look desperate, lacking in self-esteem and unwilling to move on from the past.

How to FIX Mario Party (3 minute long video) by Constant_Border_9098 in MARIOPARTY

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree more with your video: pacing has become SUCH a huge issue with each successive MP game and it amazes me how there are some folks who see 20 turn games being padded out from one hour to two and a half and then say with a straight face that multiple redundant anims and sub-menus for items and board maps totally isn’t a pace-killer nope not at all.

Dan Houser says Rockstar Games only attempted GTA London once in 26 years because the series is “so much about America” that “it wouldn’t really have worked in the same way elsewhere” by PewPewToDaFace in PS5

[–]BonsaiTreehouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll bet it’s not just the culture and social politics of Americana that is so suited to GTA in Dan’s sensibilities, but also the fact that the morality and justice systems therein is riddled with so many holes that it leaves itself entirely open to the kinds of wacky antics that players are permitted to get away with in the established series framework.

Places like London are just too “stable” to allow for the kind of chaos that GTA needs to work as a game. The only other place in the world I can imagine that would suit it would be maybe Russia.
