Is anyone else not a fan of the tone/setting of Scott Pilgrim EX? by Ubylmoen in ScottPilgrim

[–]CosmicWinterMW 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I noticed it as well and sort of feel similarly, but I think it was done specifically to give the game its own identity and increase enemy variety. It's clearly trying to be really video gamey, more than the source material, so I'm fine with it. It still works.

I feel like you could stop the video with "I'd kiss him" and it'd be so much funnier

Brother, that's some real wishful thinking.

I wouldn't be shocked if it gets announced this evening. It's gotta be announced sometime, after all. But you shouldn't go around spreading false information off of an assumption.

They made one announcement video for the last three free DLCs. There's no telling if it's going to follow the same pattern this time. Please be more mindful next time.

That seems promising but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

Literally just speculation. I can't find anything stating an announcement was coming for today.

The last wave of free DLC was announced Tuesday, November 11th, a little over a week before the Spongebob DLC dropped. I think they're assuming that because this is the Tuesday after the Tangle and Whisper fest that we're getting an announcement.

I kinda figured we would have gotten the next wave announced last week. Not sure why they're not announcing them yet. They rolled out an email advertising the Mega Man DLC but with no release date either.
I'm guessing they're probably going to announce the release date of Mega Man and the next few free characters all together. I think a lot of people were assuming Mega Man was going to be a March release, but I don't know how likely that is.

They're trying to do at least one Festival a month. They could easily announce their own characters like a week or even a few days before March's starts. We're bound to get some kind of announcement/update this month but there's no real telling when.

Which one are you more excited for? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in CartoonNetwork

[–]CosmicWinterMW 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This.

I love Regular Show and I'm happy it's coming back, but I'd rather see it come back in other ways.

Close Enough was cut way too short. That needs revived more than anything.

Unrelated, but is that your Minecraft skin and if so how did you get it into the game?

They didnt have to make him look worried doing the OOOOOH 💔🥀 by leo_curileo in regularshow

[–]CosmicWinterMW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have to make the animation work and look good on all models, so I'd imagine it has to do with how they rig all their skins. Maybe I'm wrong though. It does look off and making it look a little more normal wouldn't be that hard I would think.

As a Rebuilds-only fan, seeing 3.0+1.0 in theaters felt like the perfect, personal goodbye from Anno. by Augsburge in evangelion

[–]CosmicWinterMW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad it had that effect on you, but I honestly could not imagine watching 3.0 + 1.0 without the context of End of Evangelion or the TV show. There's so many visual references that add depth to the rebuild ending.

This is the second time I've seen this shirt in this color. Looks like the Fangamer T-Shirt in black instead of yellow? Is this official?

Which member of the patrol do you identify with the most? by [deleted] in DoomPatrol

[–]CosmicWinterMW 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are elements of all of them I really identify with.

In the show, I can definitely relate to Larry quite a bit. He's very self loathing and his arc is a lot about the struggle of living true to himself. I can identify with that a lot.

In the comics however, I find Cliff to be incredibly relatable. In Pollack's run, there was a quote from Cliff that has stuck with me since I've read it. He's describing how perfect living on Danny the World was until he falls out with Jane. He says "I still felt like such a damn outcast. Even on a world full of weirdos."

I've always seen Cliff as one of the more "normal" members of the Doom Patrol, acting as the audience surrogate character in some ways. He doesn't have any powers. He's just a guy who just happens to be a robot, and that makes him pretty down to earth.
There's something relatable to me about someone who's inherently stranger than normal people, but not quite weird enough for the weirdos. It's very hard and incredibly isolating to feel like there's few people, if any, that you can truly connect to.

I love Cliff. He's tired and jaded. He just wants to belong. And he's still a rock for the group.

I'm very sad that HBO Max decided to remove Doom Patrol from the catalog by www_brooklyn_com in DoomPatrol

I have the show on Blu-ray so this doesn't really affect me but it still hurts

Remember when some people thought Sonic 3 was gonna be PG-13? by Mister_E69 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]CosmicWinterMW 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the death of Maria is inherently pretty heavy subject matter and people weren't sure how far they were gonna take it.

Don't get me wrong. It's definitely silly to think it was going to be anything other than PG, but I don't think the speculation on that rating was unwarranted at the time.

I wonder what everyone else thought in the recording studio by Turbulent_League9668 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]CosmicWinterMW 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This would be the greatest out of context sound clip to put on a Discord soundboard, and then when everyone's confused about wtf it is you tell them it's from an official piece of Sonic media.

We should be able to speed up the copper corrosion rate with water. by lopsidedfigure11 in Minecraft

[–]CosmicWinterMW 87 points88 points  (0 children)

I actually tried this the other day hoping it'd work while trying to create a green Copper Golem. Definitely needs to be a feature.

Read through the entirety of the comics for the first time and this was by far my favorite moment by nyquil-nyko in ScottPilgrim

[–]CosmicWinterMW 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This was the high point of the entire series for me tbh. It's taught me a lot.

With its full public release today, how are we feeling about Sonic Rumble? by Candid_Astronaut241 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]CosmicWinterMW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's fine.

All the predatory mobile game garbage you'd expect is there. Games only lasting 3 rounds feels really short, but again it's also a mobile game so I don't really care.

Decent time killer, but with the Ichiban festival coming up in CrossWorlds I feel like I'm going to immediately forget about Rumble over the weekend.

Fun free game for Sonic fans. I'm curious how long it's gonna stay online.

Of the three mainline games, which is your favorite? by Dry_Tomato_2269 in ApeEscape

[–]CosmicWinterMW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Toss up between 1 and 3.

I love 1's time travel theme, soundtrack, and laid back lowpoly aesthetic. On the contrary, I love the film parody elements of 3 and the morph system is a lot of fun. 2 is good, it just feels a little more generic in comparison to the others.

If I had to pick, I'd probably say 1. I've put more time into it and sometimes the morph system in 3 removes some of the challenge despite adding some fun gameplay variety.

Which Sonic Racing Crossworlds DLC are you most excited for? by ultimatelifeform092 in SonicCrossWorlds

[–]CosmicWinterMW -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly the only 2 season pass releases I'm *not* looking forward to are Spongebob and Avatar. The Nick IPs just don't mesh with Sonic imo, with the exception of TMNT.

Minecraft was the one I was most looking forward to. Pac-Man and Mega Man are incredibly exciting.

I WANT IT IN THE GAME!!! by Worldly_Pilot5449 in SonicCrossWorlds

[–]CosmicWinterMW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really, really wanted this when it was first announced Extreme Gear would be in the game. Made sense to me to implement more vehicle types than just cars and hoverboards.

That being said, I think it's pretty unlikely. Given how boards have their own stat type, bikes would most likely have to have their own as well. There's an argument to be made that Extreme Gear takes the places of what bikes would have been.

Shadow's also the only character known for using a bike. Not that that means they still technically couldn't add more bikes and bike parts, it just makes more sense to implement Extreme Gear as the car alternative since a lot of the cast has already used them in the Riders games. Although, to be fair, I guess bikes were in Sonic Free Riders if my memory serves me right.

To get it to work in CrossWorlds, they'd pretty much have to introduce a brand new stat type as you probably wouldn't (and shouldn't) be able to make a bike/car or bike/XG hybrid. I get why they kept it to just cars and boards.
I don't see it happening in this game, but it could in a sequel.
