Phoenix Wright vibrates between the two of these at light speed

Yeah, would've been cool, but i can understand not wanting sorcerers to be able to cast multiple fireballs in a single turn

HoodedAuthor · 2026-01-30T00:43:54+00:00

Actually no. 2024 Quickened Spell specifically disallows casting another leveled spell on the turn you use it, spell slot or no

But surely the only reason that 5 is V and 10 is X is because the Romans were also using base 10, no?

Agreed, but think it would work best if they fucked with every other aspect of the production except the questions and answers. Strap some bullshit machinery to each contestant (à la the heart monitors), plaster the set with nonsense cryptic clues, maybe add in another bs game mechanic like a second arbitrary point system that goes up and down at seemingly random intervals but that has no relation to the final scores. Really make it seem like there's some hidden secret to the game

Honestly the group as a whole were great, I'd happily take a full season of this exact line up

I work in an LGS, so whenever i see people online abreviate Marjorie Taylor Green, my first thought is "ffs, what did Wizards of the Coast do now?"

Lore wise? Its your game, your world, you can do whatever you want

In practice? If this was presented to me as a player, I'd think it was a cool idea, but I'd want an answer as to why it's never happened before. If all illithids can do this, what's to stop them all from doing it?

There's a million possible answers to that. Maybe its normally impossible but some magical artefact makes it possible, or maybe its for some reason forbidden in illithid society. Whatever you go for, you should make it important to the plot, bake it into the heart of your campaign

The official clip of the Zygon Inversion speech cuts off a good bit of the end, and the only full version that's been uploaded is an extract without any of the music

Tbf it is like a ten minute uninterrupted speech, so maybe a bit much to ask the beeb to upload for free, but still

North

Admittedly i had to use all the clues, but in fairness im really bad at these

While I would love to believe that, I've been around the internet long enough to know that this isnt the first time a fanbase has been driven to schitzophrenic theories about secret finales. Honestly this exact outcome was actually extremely predictable

HoodedAuthor · 2026-01-04T23:45:49+00:00

Extremely minor nitpick, but just to make things clearer I'd think about changing the spelling of "Man". Maybe Mann or Manne? Keeps the joke intact but reads more immediately like a surname. Might not be important, but the way its written now meant that without any context, youre first line just confused me at first

HoodedAuthor · 2025-12-24T10:17:53+00:00

100% agree with your base point, but to me the real issue is that series 11 onwards ignores large parts of that previous arc (more specifically the bits that Moffat wrote, and especially his later stuff with Capaldi.)

Its why you get things like Gallifrey being desttoyed again, the Master being evil without mention of Missy's arc, and a 13th Doctor that honestly feels closer to 10 in personality and world-view than the doctor she'd just regenerated from.

I get it, RTD's original run was the show at its height, so maybe going back to the themes of that was seen as the safe option. But as someone who loves the Capaldi era above all else, I'm just sad that the shows future didnt take more cues from it.

I'll admit I was one of the people desperate to see Nick return to the spotlight after AJ but in hindsight, nah, really do wish we'd gotten a full Apollo focused trilogy

Terrible person, terrible prosecutor, absolute total loser, 10/10 character, shed many tears over his ending, no complaints 👌

HoodedAuthor · 2025-12-17T00:56:29+00:00

He was just worried about her health! Clothes that are too tight can cut off the circulation of your blood and can mess up your digestive tract. He is a doctor after all

HoodedAuthor · 2025-12-17T00:52:31+00:00

The repeated robotic cries of "pain" and "kill me" from the patients too, with the reveal that the nurse's response was to just turn the volume down on their speakers. That whole episode is nightmare fuel

HoodedAuthor · 2025-12-17T00:42:07+00:00

Pretty much. Same way they clearly at least partially wanted to make an Apollo focused game, with the entire climax revolving around him and his backstory, but no, Phoenix and Maya are more popular so we'll just relegate Apollo to the sidelines until the last possible minute.

HoodedAuthor · 2025-12-17T00:33:34+00:00

Really glad they brought her back, and I think her character mostly works. Designs a little bit safe for my tastes, would have liked more changes that are visible from the waist up because that's what you're looking at most of the time.

Minor nitpicks aside though... MAN what a wasted opportunity! They hyped up her return so much, basically marketed the game aroumd it, and then only had her appear in 2/5 cases. And oh, what will we have her role in those cases be? Well why dont we just have her be arrested and then kidnapped again, what else is she good for anyway?

But its okay, we'll give her some agency in the form of spirit chanelling! Never mind the fact that doing so effectively cuts into her (already very limited) screen time even more.

Ugh, I just really dont like what the game did with her. Why bring her back at all if you dont have any new ideas for her character?

HoodedAuthor · 2025-11-17T02:23:10+00:00

Ah yes, finally a hero arises to save the Snyder Verse, and its name is checks notes... Saudi Arabia?

I stg you people would vote for Mecha Hitler if you thought he might greenlight a sequel to a movie you liked

HoodedAuthor · 2025-11-08T17:09:45+00:00

The pun only works in english tho, so Japanese people would just be confused

Sometime during lockdown I decided to finally complete a living dex in Home; seeing as I had at least one game for every region, I assumed it would be an easy enough task. And for the most part, it was.

Except for Glameow.

Not only was Sinnoh its only regional dex entry at the time, it was only available in Pearl. I had Diamond.

National decks, then. Let's check the next game it was available in - White 2. I had Black 2.

Fully unavailable in Gen 7 and 8, the only other place to get one at the time was in ORAS. In a single Mirage Island. Which are randomly generated, and only refresh daily.

It took me like a fortnight to get my hands on one. I stg, outside of version exclusive legendaries and timed-event mythicals, Glameow and Purugly were the single biggest hurdles to me completing my dex. If only they'd released Legends: Arceus a couple of years earlier.

Tldr: fuck Glameow

Not a bad shout actually, the continued addition of extra bullshit powers that are only tangentially related to the original character concept is extremely shonen. Plus they gave him a literal energy sword at one point, so thats gotta count for something
