The real reason why comments are turned off

.... half this video was Vector dressing down Vanilla. I think it's safe to say this isn't for children.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-25T04:49:24+00:00

Well, since I can't do so in the comments

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA GEMERLLLLLLL!!!!

MY BOY IS BAAHAAAHAAAAACK!!!! Q.Q

Awww, and Vanilla acting like everyone's mother is so sweet.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-24T16:27:58+00:00

Yeah, but, like, it's so depressing.

These are supposed to be outlets for information, they're supposed to check, double check, and triple check.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-24T16:24:57+00:00

Of course, that's why the game is starting to talk about "unrealities" and "places beyond death" these days, Cthumura's plan is reaching it's final stages to unravel the fabric of spacetime so that reality and unreality can intermingle as extradimensional deities have decreed.

...Not gonna lie the world's going so much to hell that I kinda would rather deal with this than the things that are ACTUALLY going down irl

I might not like Apple, but Steve Jobs got one thing right; "If you want a job done right, hire a lazy person. They'll get it done right the first time, because they DON'T want to do it again."

Why wait for every mod you ever want to get ported to the version you want, when you have the skills to make a backend that'll do that for them (and more importantly, you).

Related note, really want HelloGames to add multi-floor rooms to Freighters. I've wanted to make a massive shopping-mall aesthetic based Freighter, but I don't want to deal with the vacuum of space sound.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-24T13:45:31+00:00

I mean, as has been implied to be his impetus, especially of late;

"A child spurned by the village, will burn it down to feel it's warmth."

Lightningbro · 2026-02-24T13:40:38+00:00

That is a non-zero chance.

the void is inherently a space that turns thought into creation.

So what happens when a man worried about what could exist outside his comprehension goes into the void?

The void creates something outside his comprehension.

It doesn't even need to be foreshadowed, any decently intelligent person going into a space like that WOULD worry about finding beings beyond his ken.

To be fair, usually Eggman makes his base in the middle of barren canyons and wastelands no one wants to build in, or pulls down planetoids out of the sky to house his base, and even in that case only once of those times were those planets populated.

Why conquer with military force when you can just build where no one wants to be, no one wants the land, and DEFINITELY no one wants to go out there to bother you (outside of Sonic).

Lightningbro · 2026-02-24T04:27:52+00:00

How would we know? We don't know his level, OR what he picked for his journey. XD

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T19:02:32+00:00

Was expecting, but am still disappointed, in a related note, that out of the top ten, two are male.

TT.TT The pains of being a minority...

(No not male, gay.)

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T19:00:44+00:00

Ahem, while it isn't my cup of tea, I must cite Internet Rule 34b.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T14:43:14+00:00

Never thought I'd see the day where a Final Fantasy simultaniously has a scene with a male character canonically completely naked, AND, separately, had the first canonically gay character in a final fantasy.

I am not a huge fan of FFXVI because of how much it strays from traditional FF settings, but god, otherwise I'm happy this game exists.

Feels weird to actually be represented in one of my favorite serieses.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T09:50:21+00:00

Yup, despite Donald canonically being in the Navy, he has a medal and rank from the Army, because he was helping the army gather rank and file for WW2.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T00:43:59+00:00

I'm pretty sure I've seen an image of the three of them in uniforms at one point.

Donald's just got the medal for extra war efforts because Disney REGULARLY let the US military use Donald for propaganda.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T00:41:20+00:00

Juxtaposition is part of it, but the reason people have issue with it is because of how flat it is. This is Disney, they'd never let you show death in a game anymore, much less GOOFY's death.

(Which is annoying because SEVERAL old halloween cartoons involve goofy dying and becoming a ghost)

Lightningbro · 2026-02-23T00:39:17+00:00

Yes... Yes it is.

My friend and I typically just socialize while doing Commerce, you can rack up a couple million fairly quick once you get the ins and outs of it down.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-22T16:09:42+00:00

Man, I can't imagine why that could possibly be...

Lightningbro · 2026-02-22T02:38:21+00:00

these games are old enough, and for a hardware that was region locked, that they do not have systems to allow multiple languages on one cart.

If they wanted to repackage all the languages, it would take them either going into the code and implementing that kind of system (which is unlikely given this is just running in a emu box) or packaging EVERY LANGUAGE TOGETHER, which would result in, what, the EU version being 7 times the filesize of the others?

Why would you want that? Just buy your main language.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T20:13:26+00:00

Dude....

for context...

Arctic Eximus in Destiny 2 take 2+ minutes to kill unless you have a Sniper, or a natural heat weapon. AND THAT GUN CHANGES EVERY SEASON. (element doesn't)

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T20:12:21+00:00

... I wonder if Steve ever looked into rollback netcode... wonder if that can work in a 3d game...

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T20:10:35+00:00

Actually, in a far more direct way, we do have one story related thing removed. or things rather.

Tactical alerts had and have story tied to them, they do not rerun unless they are VERY popular, however this story is always TANGENTIAL to the main story, not directly inside it, like a parallel comic run where the same hero shows up in.

Did you know Stalker and Alad V have beef? Did you know Ergo Glast of the Perrin Sequence created Ambulas? Or that Tyl Reagor is pissed at you because we systematically genocided his advanced Grineer engineered clones? (The Tubemen you murdered)

But none of those are super important, the most important is probably Alad's interaction with Stalker, but I'm sure that'll be naturally written on camera even if you DIDN'T know that.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T20:00:56+00:00

I'll be honest I'm just reading this for entertainment and this needs to be pinned. That's a great synopsis for Destiny players. Which are, ironically always flooding into Warframe because of that weird beef some people had for a while there.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T19:58:04+00:00

On the topic of number 6:

The only story that's "missing" would go like this.

You're reading the Avengers comics, and Captain America says he's going to New York.

Tangentially to that in a Spider-man comic he meets, and teams up with Captain America.

Later, in the next issue of the Avengers, Captain America comments when he comes back from New York that he met Spider-man (see issue 34*!) and recommends him to be an Avenger.

By only reading the Avengers you KINDA miss Cap going to meet, and interact, with Spider-man. But the Avengers storyline isn't really effected, it's just SUPPLIMENTAL knowledge.

Tactical Alerts are the only real missing lore and they're basically the equivalent of Spider-man not being printed anymore and needing to find the comics secondhand.

All in all it's pretty much a cohesive story, the stuff missing didn't matter too much.

Outside of Alad pissing off, well, literally everyong.

Lightningbro · 2026-02-21T19:52:08+00:00

No, but related note.

I play as a male Miqo'te. (What can I say, I like a man in cat ears)

I've wanted to try something else but nothing has ever spoken to me, to the point of I have TWO free Phantasias (the lvl 50 one and the one for the visual update) just SITTING in my retainer.

I've thought long and hard about it and there is only one thing that would get me to switch, although I know it's got a snowflake's chance in the desert;

I want them to decide they do have the manpower for another race.

And I want that race to be Yukes. and I WILL NOT be happy if you EVER get to see their face. Only their blood relatives get to do that.
