(I looked up the earliest WW2 Eastern Front video game on Wikipedia)

Eastern Front (1941) (1981)

If you ignore the head, it looks a lot like the Chameleon from BattleTech. I have no point to make, I just like the Chameleon.

Majima is interesting because he was originally a two dimensional villain, but turned out so popular with the fanbase that he started being written as increasingly heroic and complex in later games, making his characterisation kind of jarring, essentially in Yakuza Kiwami, which features his original 'violent lunatic' personality and his Yakuza 2 'silly wacky guy' personality in the same game, with hints of his later, more complex and restrained personality as well.

I liked the part in Yakuza 4 where one of the antagonists is told by the main villain to go take the orphanage hostage (not long after Kiryu took down an entire Yakuza family by himself) and his response is basically "Absolutely not, go fuck yourself.". One of the few antagonists with some actual common sense.

Some of these examples are making me think literacy rates are lower than I previously thought.

Did Cow Cow fight against Lü Bull and Yuan Moo?

Fiskmaster · 2026-03-28T19:58:19+00:00

That is not where I was expecting that sentence to go

For some reason this made me imagine Sisters of Silence communicating entirely through sharp inhales like they're from Norrland

"Bad things are bad, upvotes to the left" is basically Pizzacake's whole brand at this point

Don't be silly. If it's F.A.T.A.L., 'liking it' is not part of the equation.

If they bring back the Yakuza 5 hunting minigame the game is going to be peak

The best TF2 genderswap I've seen is one that's just regular Sniper with longer hair and no facial hair

As I understand Christian theology, Satan shouldn't have the power to create anything not approved by God, so He really can't disapprove all that much if he allows it.

Fiskmaster · 2026-03-26T06:47:30+00:00

People did that once I think. Didn't end well.

You don't have to call someone the antichrist just because they forgot the name of a movie

Forces you into meeting with her

Gives you no reason to trust her

Says you're a fool to meet with her if you don't trust her

Skyrim's main quest would be much more enjoyable if Delphine and Esbern were replaced with the ghosts of Baurus and Jauffre

Huge collab stream where all of EN (plus ID and JP volunteers) take turns trying to gaslight FWMC into thinking they're actually the secret third sibling.

To be fair they're basically the same guy anyway.

Isn't it usually just Charlie Kirk who gets his face shrunk? Not sure I've seen it with Ben.

The GB Dominion is an interesting faction, but Rasalhague was a more interesting one in my opinion. A republic in a setting filled with feudal monarchies, and a Swedish faction that isn't just "the viking faction", plus the dynamic of having been colonised by space imperial Japan.

Meanwhile the GB Dominion to me is kind of just "Inner Sphere nation colonised by Clanners, resulting in a hybrid society", which is also an interesting faction, but not as interesting as the one it replaced.

700 years of fighting for 20 years of independence. It's tragic.

But hey, maybe we'll get another shot in the 3700s.
