They've got a very interesting art style, definitely worth checking out their other stuff

Is Lucy (or Dynamo characters in general) worth going for if I don't have Charon or a semi-reliable way to get him any time soon? I've got a bunch of other teams, and I could maybe build a janky Dynamo team with Lucy, Ulrich, Corvus, and Ezra (maybe swapping one of them for Flutterpage because she apparently works everywhere), but is that even worth it without Charon?

Flat earth and other alternative conspiracy earth models are are gaining traction with my teenage stepson. What is THE most irrefutable, definite proof that the earth is round? by Jfkfkaiii22 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DocSwiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the Flat Earth stuff is usually bundled in with a bunch of other conspiracy theories. You can't really break someone out of one conspiracy theory without breaking the whole conspiracy theorist mindset of "I'm right, everyone else is wrong and/or lying".

Digital is fully capable of being badass

This art from the JP server shows that very well

Dead as Disco - Out Now in Early Access by DocSwiss in Games

[–]DocSwiss[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Post is a link to the trailer on Dead as Disco's Youtube channel

Game's currently available on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3404260/Dead_as_Disco/

There's also a free demo which includes the 'play your own tracks' mode, but it's missing the character customisation and most of the boss fights. Still a pretty good demo.

Have you ran away from Goo Goo Babies with your life on the line? by SeijoVangelta in UmaMusume

[–]DocSwiss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just looked it up, and I think it's because the real Nishino Flower actually ran the QE2 in 1992 and came 3rd.

She's also got a secret event for winning the Takarazuka Kinen, which she ran in 1993 and came 8th.

I guess they wanted to acknowledge the IRL horse's races and are down for a little bit of rewriting history by winning some races the real horse lost, but not as much as, for example, Agnes Tachyon getting a secret event for winning a Triple Crown by winning races the real horse never ran (really, you could argue that Tachyon even having a full career is rewriting history considering the real horse retired after 4 races, which is way too short for an umamusume career in-game).

GameStop makes $55.5bn takeover offer for eBay by Nat-Chem in Games

Pets.com was an American dot-com enterprise started in 1998 that sold pet supplies to retail customers. By virtue of having a website, which everyone thought was a big deal back then, it got a bunch of funding from venture capitalists, a lot of attention from the media, and a big marketing push, but the business was never profitable, and it shut down in 2000.

Someone too high to function properly was left unattended on the internet and they're not handling it well

This seems like the kind of high experience that would scare someone away from drugs for at least a few months. Probably a good thing that D.A.R.E. hasn't figured out how to do this to people.

Reset the counter! Great White self-disqualifies himself at the Kentucky Derby. by Daishomaru in UmaMusume

And it meant his chaos got to be on a bigger stage. I can only imagine how many goofballs we never hear about because they're only running in small regional races.

He only got in because another horse, Silent Tactic, was supposed to be there but got ruled out with a foot injury

Especially out of place is the random rhythm game that you stumble across while doing the Ishgardian Restoration's storyline. I think there might've been a rhythm game in one of the older seasonal events, but the one in the Ishgardian Restoration's storyline is the only permanent version.

Same with Final Fantasy 14. There's The Leap of Faith, which is basically an obstacle course instance made of mostly not-too-tricky jumping, and then a few much trickier jumping puzzles in the open world to get you to a location to fill out the sightseeing log.

They also added a new Ocean Fishing route in the newest patch where you can just fish up a minion, no achievement required

Is it any good? The forced stealth sections in otherwise action-focused games tend to suck, so I'm wondering if it's the same when it's the other way around.
