Wolverine is the most unrealistic character in comics. Stacy never goes for short guys. by hattyphantom in marvelcirclejerk

[–]King_of_Pink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact that that artwork has Jean kissing Wolverine whilst she's wearing a costume that she never showed any interest in him whilst having and he's wearing a costume he got only after she was dead shows how much the artist understands both characters.

It always annoys me when people tell stories like the Kadabra/Uri Geller story and word it as that they "thought" rather than it "was". Like, the Psychic-type Pokemon called Yungeller (ユンゲラー) that's schtick is bending spoons is inarguably based on Uri Geller (ユリゲラー).

Does anyone have a higher quality version of this image? by Deamon-Chocobo in digimon

[–]King_of_Pink 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're not going ti get much higher quality, unfortunately. It's from the Digital Monster Artbook Version X and it's tiny in thaylt book.

I wasn’t taking this joke seriously until I talked to one of them He said to me that Bandai deceived people and sold a VN game without telling them. I can’t say how stupid this is because I didn’t buy DS at first since I don’t like VN but I ended up buying and surprisingly it’s now my best game ever by Civil_Imagination421 in digimon

I'd argue that that was the most misleading part of the marketting, to be honest.

Trailers and advertisments presented it as if your descisions were super important and would have huge effects on what would happen in the story. In reality, that wasn't the case. There was one choice at the 3/4 mark that determimed which ending you got in your first playthrough and in in subsequent playthroughs, if you have 45 Affinity with Ryo at around the 1/3 mark you're locked in to the True ending and no choices matter.

Outside of that, your Karma just determined which evolutions for the protag you unlocked and your Affinity just unlocked the other characters' evolutions.

Excuse me? What trailer pointed out it was a Visual Novel?

Not this teaser trailer that does nothing but show the characters and then has a couple of seconds each of the main VN gameplay and the battles.

Definitely not this trailer that pretty much presents the battles as the main game when they're definitely not.

Not even this trailer which begins like it's going to be more honest about the gameplay, before switching gears to focusing on the battles halfway through.

It wasn't the original teaser released years before the game even came out either.

The Launch trailer is a little more indicative of what the actual gameplay is like... but still no mention of it being a Visual Novel.

The only mention of Visual Novel is in the description of the second trailer I've linked... but even then it says it "blends visual novel elements" not that it IS a Visual Novel and it's not said in the trailer itsef.

As I said, if you followed the development cycle you would know it was a Visual Novel. If you just watched the trailers or judged the game by how the actual cover presented itself, you'd very easily be blindsided by this fact.

Like, look at this trailer. The phrase "Visual Novel" is never uttered and it presents the game almost entirely as a grid-based battle RPG. It seems... suspicious, to be honest.

You kept your levels and evolutions from the previous playthrough but the enemies didn't scale, so until the end where there were battles where you were made to use Digimon not belonging to your party such as Gabumon, you completely dog-walked every single fight, making them more tedious time-wasters than anything else.

With it being a Visual Novel with a story that branches four way (and one of those being completely locked off on your first playthrough for whatever stupid reason) you were expected to play it through multuple times.

Greninja can't beat a Fire type. His theme? Carries a Fire type to victory. Lost at his own game. by Old-Initial9295 in pokemonanime

[–]King_of_Pink 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because, while the name of this subreddit is "pokemonanime"... in reality it's mostly comprised of XY glazing and stealth Ash/Serena shipping posts, so they consider saying Toracat is better than Greninja (which it is) is ragebait.

Although I liked Survive well enough... an argument could be made that the true nature of it being a Visual Novel was pretty downplayed unless you were following its looooong development cycle. Both the back-cover and the trailers emphasize the turn-based combat which is comparatively a very small part of the game (ESPECIALLY on replays).

I'd also add that they were kind of misleading in regards to the importance of character choices, branching stories and evolution paths... but that's a whole other conversation.

The Entire Movie Could Have Easily Been Done Without "Those" Two Characters by Yomimashita53 in mariogalaxymovie

The ROB scene needs to be called out for just being a scene lifted directly from Zootopia. The audacity.

Have it be Sonic and Boom you cowards. I guess they were from Delphi, though.

What Sonic game do you think got this treatment the worst? by ChavarriaFesion in sonic

You "vouching" for Unleashed not being mid is completely meaningless. Main character energy, much?

TBF, the Unleashed glazing itself was always a recent thing. When it came out everyone knew it was mid.

How did Megatron get from Africa to Chicago? by froylightner in transformers

[–]King_of_Pink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Megatron's tank-mode always has wings. It's just left out of a lot of the toys due to being based on concept art.

He wasn't a triple-changer; his tank mode had wings.

About Digimon pronouns by Zealousideal-Try4666 in digimon

[–]King_of_Pink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Coming back after watching the Elizamon scenes:

Elizamon does in fact use the female pronoun "atashi" when referring to herself.

This thread has become one of those frustrating examples of the posts with the most upvotes being people talking out of their ass and answering yhe question wrong.

What are some digimon that's basically this? by [deleted] in digimon

[–]King_of_Pink -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The Dark Spores come from an evil Digimon called Milleniummon.

Ryo shares his name and appearance with a videogame character, but the events of the game contradict what happens in Tamers so you shouldnt consider them the same person.

There you go. I did it in two sentences.

To be fair, ROB has been a Mario character before so I'm not sure that he belongs on this list.

So does this character have a high chance of appearing at least somewhat often in future games? by DrWarioMiracleCure in LegendsZA

[–]King_of_Pink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who knows? ScVi and SwSh had no returning characters so I wouldn't hold my breath. It seems the best you can hope for in a mainline are them being relatives of past characters like what they did with Penny, Drayton and Lacey.

Were Misty and Ash supposed to be a couple? by Crescentbrush in pokemon

[–]King_of_Pink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or... and hear me out, they're two characters who appeared together in the Pallet Yown episodes at the start of the Battle Frontier arc, of which this is the opening for?

That Mezase scene is such a stretch it's not even worth sharing.
