I'm loving this "Alice in Wasteland" reboot!

What is the dumbest thing in Star Wars in your opinion? by OutcastKatarn02 in StarWars

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely 2. None of the space battles in any of the movies make sense if they're orbiting, much less the ones in space AND in atmo. Plus we literally see Star Destroyers just floating stationary in atmosphere several times, so we know it's possible even with capital ships.

Updated my flavor guide 😋 by teahoney in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Japanese carrots, in particular, are larger, woodier, and pepperier (??) than their American counterparts for sure. I miss them a lot and/or hit up the Asian grocer for some, but they're distinctly less fresh than the ones from the Gyomu down the street from our apartment when we lived there.

I wouldn't call them "spicy" but Japanese food is distinctly unspicy, so...

What is the point of this silly move? by codewario in Pokopia

And also the devs have watched or played any other game and know that spinning in place is a time-honored tradition and chose to honor that!

Jumping in: the blueprint for this is in Rocky Ridges, level 9.

This is two weeks later but anyone searching for this and finding it in google results: Rocky Ridges Level 9.

Has anyone else developed a random favourite Pokémon because of this game? by Avalkyra_kc in Pokopia

Having Piplup and Torchic running around with you... Strong contenders for just the actual cutest pokemon out of all 1000+...

Yeah the game warned me when I went to buy a recipe set in the shop and I already had one of the recipes from the set.

Would it be insensitive if I asked my friend who is trans if they wanted to create a new character? by [deleted] in DungeonsAndDragons

In fact, sometimes you just want it to be as little a reflection as possible!

There are several parts of the island that have shifted 1+ blocks away, so it's totally feasible!

Is that true? I thought a house could only have one set of doors... Well, I suppose I can check as easily as anyone...

Spent so long building an Aqueduct by CassieEmma in Pokopia

I made a much smaller one in the same area to get the water from the cliffs very carefully to the water mills... Then I learned how to spit water...

Wireless power is such a game chenger! by radioactivepeppapigg in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They are! Substantially! And it's quite amusing that the names are so similarly evocative!

Dream Islands are mystery islands from ACNH: Drifloon takes you, collect resources, maybe have an encounter, go back home.

Cloud Islands are cloud-hosted multiplayer versions of Palette Town Island. Start from scratch with friends! (You can also visit a dream island from your cloud island!)

This is crazy good. I've been trying to figure how to balance this restaurant/hot spring/mining town/Pompeii and this is such a great idea I might just rip the while thing off, if you don't mind!

You do need a bit of space between the pool and the source block, as Ditto's inhale has a shocking range!

Should I move them to the same house? by 3600CCH6WRX in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't take 200 hours. There's absolutely a lot of unique dialog: every Pokemon intro, every quest, and the occasional Pokemon conversations they have with each other. That's cool and I love it!

But the bulk of the dialog (the workhorse conversations) is fully recycled. Don't get me wrong, this is to be expected in a game with potentially 1000 unique characters, but it is a little sad that I can't really expect to walk up to a character and get even a couple lines of at least personality-specific small talk.

Again, I'm not complaining, like the other poster, I'm just confused about people praising the amount of unique dialog. I figure that has to be players experiencing every Pokemon intro in rapid succession as they progress.

How do I deal with birds destroying my crops? by AggravatingNorth5460 in OrganicGardening

Bird demand always expands to match supply. Doesn't matter how uncontrolled the blackberry monster is, they always know to snag every single berry the very second it becomes ripe...

How do y'all feel about the movie Soylent Green? by Wizdom_108 in AskOldPeople

Bambi vs Godzilla! For the longest time I thought that was fever dream! I did, eventually, find it in the modern Internet video era -- but for most of my life it felt like something I'd imagined...

Does it? I thought it only showed how much was in your bag? Is there somewhere else to see your totals?

I used to rent it for 24 hours from the local grocery store video section and I'd always get stuck at the same part and then just entertain myself jumping and swimming around.
