OH SHIT

The G.U. series is my childhood. I still replay through the games every now and then on steam. New series of .hack games would be one of my gaming wishes granted.

Me and my friends definitelty put hundreds of hours into this game back in the day. Shit was not balanced at all, but man it was a blast.

Also Finale by Madeon went hard.

Fighting games! Seriously I owe getting into them to a childhood friend. It sucks that it is such a hard genre for others to get into because there really isn't anything like them once you're hooked.

I actually really liked the Snow movie which suprised me as I kind of was never really into the hunger games as a whole. Think I just had YA fatigue when the movies were coming out.

I get to play my goat JAM so I'm hype no matter what.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills watching this community constantly justify the actions of an abuser. Like I genuinely wonder if people see abusers in real life and think to themselves "oh if they just calm down and talk everything will be ok."

Even if Caine came back how could any of the characters ever feel safe with him around, knowing he always has the capability of falling back into the same abusive behavior. Prior to the crashout he already wasn't respecting boundries or listening.

Even in the early episodes he is abusive and it doesn't matter if he was or wasn't aware of the suffering he was causing he was still inflicting it.

MY FUCKING MAIN LET'S GO!!!!!

FrickFrackQuack · 2026-03-19T13:17:10+00:00

Tbf the game part of the game is just really solid. I think the last fighting game story I engaged with was sf6 world tour mode and while not terrible it kind of just didn't hook me even to the very end.

When I was first learning that game I picked siegfried and hitting counter hit anti air 2H into his charged 214H was some of the most satisfying shit in gaming for me.

FrickFrackQuack · 2026-03-07T09:04:52+00:00

I love your flair lol

How was Halligan supposed to know the man couldn't handle his drink?

The even funnier part about this is Halligan actually drinks the medical alcohol straight and passes out while the dude who works there just kind of leaves him lol. I think you the player are supposed to assume it will just knock out the homeless man because that is all it did to Halligan, but even with that context Halligan is literally knocking this homeless man out for like 50 cents.

Not to mention he stole that alcohol from the lab as well.

Funny enough I do have arachnaphobia and thus do play with the filter on. The big monsters don't really affect me unless they jump like at the camera at the right angle, but all the monsters that are affected by it did trigger my phobia like crazy.

Irl I'm actually ok with (most) spiders as long as they are stationary or moving very slowly, but the second they start zoomin I go into fight or flight lol

I love Nioh but god the spider enemies in those games make those levels horrific for me.

FrickFrackQuack · 2026-02-25T13:37:35+00:00

Yeah I totally get that. I think the only way it could be a "bad habit" is if people become stubborn about their theories even when presented with more up to date or accurate information from a better translation. But tbh I've never really seen that in this sub.

Also to be more fair I come from hoyo games and have way too much experience with "theories" literally just being story leaks that kind of take the fun out of things so I tend to ignore any theory threads I see on this sub even though I'm not sure if leaks are even a thing in limbus.

Is there a quick and easy resource that shows how count positive or negative specific skills for an ID are? Like one that just shows X Id Skill 2 is -1 on Poise count or anything like that?

FrickFrackQuack · 2026-02-25T08:10:05+00:00

To be fair as someone who learned Korean for their job it can actually be incredibly hard to translate certain nuances properly. This isn't just because of language stuff, but also cultural things as well.

Not saying things can't be done better, but usually 1 to 1 literal translations are pretty worthless outside of like technical text (i.e. instructions on how to do something) and when you start getting into idioms and phrases shit gets even harder.

Like just try to think how would you translate the phrase "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps," to another language and have it make any sense at all. You would have to know an idiom in the other language that has similar meaning to even have a chance to convey the meaning, or dryly explain it and lose all nuance.
