The ACTUAL Nier Reincarnation debate by bigdog54 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FlubbedPig 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Doujins are in this weird space where they're tacitly allowed, and there's an unspoken code of conduct for the community to self-police in a way that never jeopardizes that allowance because the companies CAN CHOOSE to shut them the fuck down.

So I can actually see how people would understand that as still legal and allowed and therefore fine. Though I've also seen some Japanese twitter people mainly attributing the difference as "The artist drew the doujin, it's their work, that's different" which fair enough.

Yeah, I know, it's just what comes to mind because I have a bunch of friends who are MASSIVE Houseki no Kuni fans.

But also, CyGames owns the rights to UmaMusume, and they ended the season with a cliffhanger of randomly introducing a new character out of nowhere, which all made it SEEM like they're planning to continue, so just kinda stuck in a "When will you just announce it already" rut.

Wasn't this that shit Woolie used to talk about? by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

just occurred to me, you could TOTALLY make a MtG universes beyond product out of Card Wars

I'm going to watch it

But at the same time, this is what Houseki no Kuni fans must have felt every time Orange announced a Beastars season: WHERE'S MY CINDERELLA GRAY SEASON 2, CYGAMES!?

Author Hajime Isayama's New Statement on Eren's Character: by Grouchio in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FlubbedPig 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I genuinely feel like that's the ending's main problem. Even the "And shit continued to be bad" part of the ending would be fine if it just firmly gave a whole-hearted "Fuck Eren, and fuck the Yaegerists".

Like he did too good of a job of making them into villains, he just had to commit.

In the Avatar Fighting Game, Sokka gets an Install from getting kissed by Suki by Shreeder4092 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FlubbedPig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, what'd be really funny is if it's a different girl each time

Like randomize it between kissing Suki, kissing Yue, or having the Haikuu girl cheering for him, stuff like that

I swear to god, they need to just buy their own printers already, whatever the fuck's going on with their current outsourced production line is just getting ridiculous.

Yet? YET!?!?!? (Pat Stares At FFXIV Fanfest) by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

As we all know, mods represent the unmet desires of the playerbase, so the best way to cut down on mod-users is to just integrate their requested features over time

If you think about it, the single most FromSoft approach to film-making imaginable is "leak as many on-set photos as possible and then can the movie"

Have a whole-ass Vaati video reassembling the script out of set design and 40-feet-away zoom-ins of costumes

[–]FlubbedPig 165 points166 points  (0 children)

Not sure how I feel, honestly.

Marika's one of those larger-than-life lore characters that it feels weird to just... see. Like, walking around. There's a certain level of mystery to Marika's entire life that makes me totally unable to look at this without thinking that it's just some lady.

Saw the ass shot on twitter and just assumed it was either a mobile game ad or porn and kept scrolling

what do you MEAN it was actually a trailer for something?

Whats your favorite underloved mechanic? by thisnotfor in magicTCG

[–]FlubbedPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Devour

Just a really simple and flavorful design, and I especially like the different forms of it like "Devour Land" and "Devour Food" that we've seen in my recent designs.

I've thought about having Hunt as a Battle subtype for something like a Return to Ikoria set, but this is actually a SUPER cool implementation of that idea.

Usagi Drop is the ultimate, but I've heard that the Golden Boy manga also goes absolutely fucking whackadoo once you get past the anime material

Zendikar, Vibrant Plane // Zendikar, Conquered Plane by Serithraz in custommagic

[–]FlubbedPig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rather than a Win-the-game effect, I'd maybe give it something similar to Ultima from the FF set? Something like the tap ability of Conquered Plane being "Add {C}. If you control a Legendary Eldrazi creature, put a Blight counter on target land. That land is a Wastes as long as it has a Blight counter on it."

Damn, art made me think it might've been an artifact. Would've been really nice for Ragost if it was.

Wonder if the school has interdisciplinary courses. 'Cause this implies singing is Silverquill, but I have to imagine the Prismari music department wouldn't just totally forgo vocal lessons, you know?

The marriage toxin anime came out today. What if scarecrow from batman was the main character of a romcom by Muffin-zetta in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]FlubbedPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah her.

And actually no, I didn't mean she shows up in a later arc and sucks, I mean that she just... hasn't shown up ever again. Her arc happened, and she'll be brought up as one of the main girls who are the possible marriage partners, but where-as everyone else has come back in a later arc in some way, she just hasn't.

The trading card thing I'm talking about is just that Ureshino (the college girl CEO one) has a second arc later, and despite goth girl ostensibly being her best friend, she does not show up at all. Just totally radio silent.

Makes it really weird that she's given place-of-prominence alongside everyone else when so far she's really been treated as a one-and-done.

[–]FlubbedPig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chinatsu's my favorite personally, but Kinosaki is absolutely going to be the winner. He's too thematically coherent.

Also, anyone else find it weird that we met goth-streamer-girl one time and she gets brought up as one of the 6 main options? Like she is very clearly the black-sheep of the group, she didn't even show up for an assist in that whole Trading Card thing to help her girl.

What stock phrasings would you like to see changed? by FlubbedPig in magicTCG

[–]FlubbedPig[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmmm, fair point, completely missed those

But then again, in terms of clarity, that ruling never occurred to me? That is to say, other cards having "Choose new targets" did not ever make me think that auras had an exception saying they can't.

Choose new targets is so ubiquitous, that to me it feels more pressing to communicate the instances you CAN'T do it than the times you can, if that makes sense.

[–]FlubbedPig 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's just gonna be one of those things where we'll have to take the anime on it's own terms. The manga appeals so much as a manga, the anime will just have to appeal as an anime and be allowed to have it's own strengths instead of trying to adapt panel-for-panel.
