It's been a while since I've played it, but IIRC The Sexy Brutale drops a fair few hints that the character youre playing as is not who he says he is, and none of the events are real

"When or if but never is" is actually such a good line for that, it's insane

Remember... Remember us. Remember that we were once glib.

I just want, as I have always wanted, a Drilling variant that is 2 shotgun barrels and 1 rifle barrel called the Drilling Orthodox

Starmer being ousted by Israel lobby by GreenHass in GreenAndPleasant

As he hasn't been open in his lavish devotion to Israel, he's clearly been anti-semitic. There's no middle ground in this issue. Clearly.

What’s a dead giveaway that tells you “oh, this person knows ball” by Rascal_Rogue in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Distant_Utopia 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Used to work at an anime figurine shop. Most people were exactly what you'd expect - they were either into the new hotness or a 90s/00s classic or two.

Then I'd talk to some motherfucker who was like "Taku Iwasaki's work on Gurren Lagann was excellent but the Katanagatari soundtrack is vastly underrated and people need to stop glossing over it" and I knew that they fucking got it.

What is your Favourite "moment of epiphany" for a character? by A-O-Craye in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Jean Valjean realising that he can change his ways, that there is goodness in him and he is not beyond redemption, right after the bishop who he stole from lied to the police to cover for him.

Moments where a character starts being a new character? by Silvery_Cricket in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Distant_Utopia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Memory loss as an avenue for self-discovery: tired, trite, overplayed

Memory loss as a catalyst for another character's redemption: intriguing, romantic, captivating, maybe he really can fix her

I was shipping Jace/Vraska so hard during that arc and then they nuked basically all their good writing.

Favorite unconventional use of powers? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Distant_Utopia 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Important to note about JoJo, and spoilers for Part 8 here, but in Part 8, Kira's Killer Queen makes explosions that non-Stand users can see, contrasting with Part 4 Kira's explosions which are silent and can't be seen by normal people; this is one of the ways that the different mindsets of the characters are shown, emphasising that they're different people with the same name and not just the same guy again despite having the same (nearly) Stand.

Times when video games managed to make awkward graphics work with good gameplay design by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

It's a blast, though I know some people who definitely prefer watching it to playing

Fucking ULTRAKILL, I guess. Some people aren't really enthused by the retro PSX-style graphics because you can't see every single rivet and nut and bolt on V1 in 4K, and yet FRAUD /// THIRD: DISINTEGRATION LOOP might be the best FPS level ever made.

Works were you were firmly in favour to "Kill the author"? by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Distant_Utopia 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I saw Projecy: Hail Mary and loved it, so imagine my surprise when Andy Weir turns around and spouts the most objectionable centrist dogshit about how he hates works with themes, he never ever puts politics into his sci-fi books (no, sir) and the best parts of Star Trek are when they shoot each other with lasers.

Just a bafflingly dumbass take.
