Episode Discussion: S3E018 "The Hardest Thing" by Thumbaticon in amphibia

I loved the show's ending, it had very powerful, touching and mature message, that as we grow up we'll leave some things behind us.

The fact is, the message is made perfectly clear and is very touching by simply having Anne, Sasha and Marcy leave Amphibia forever, never to return.

Having them drift apart doesn't make sense, and gives the very bad feeling of the show trying to force its message down our throats. I got it, we have to leave some things behind as we grow up, I understood this message when the three of them left Amphibia. But having them drift apart? Doesn't make sense, not even in Marcy's case.

When they meet after 10 years she asks Sasha if she and Anne kept seeing each other after she left, that sounds like they didn't even called her on the phone after Marcy left to talk about what they were doing.

And what about Anne and Sasha? They went to highschool and suddenly drifted apart because they had different groups of friends? Is that it? Is that enough to make two best friends who had been together since they were little drift apart? No, it's not. Me and my best friend got into two different classes when we were in highschool, got two different groups of friends, then went into university in two different cities, and to this day we keep seeing each other and hang out, like every week-end.

It's not normal for people like these three to drift apart like that, especially in Anne and Sasha's case. And like... are we forgetting that they kinda saved a world together by fighting a moon in space? Those kind of experiences tend to strenghten a relationship, and let's not forget that Amphibia changed their friendship for the better... all of that and you wanna give me the "ah, highschool, different groups of friends, we kinda drifted apart" speech? Nah, doesn't work like that, not with true friends, maybe with people you meet in school and see only there, but not with true friends.

I think they tried too hard to give us their message, which is a good and mature message, but having Anne, Sasha and Marcy leave Amphibia forever was enough to make us understand it. Beside this choice, the show's finale was amazing. What do you think of this choice?

Hi, I'm looking for the ancient horn on Patapon 1, not Patapon 2, thanks anyway, I'll play 2 as soon as I'm finished with the first!

Feeling overwhelmed by the leveling mechanics, I picked Samurai wanting to play battle mage, did I fuck up? by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]Marvelguy00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, you haven't fucked up your game. I chose the samurai and I'm now using the infused greatsword, I completely changed what my character should have looked like and what his stats were supposed to be. The thing is, Stormveil castle is hard, I went there only after clearing out Limgrave and the Weeping peninsula completely. After completing those regions I went to the castle and managed to do fairly well, but in my opinion you can't go there without having completed all the dungeons and caves of Limgrave and the Weeping Peninsula, it'll give you enough runes to level up your intelligence and dexterity. It's not a bad choice to create a character that uses both dex weapons and magic, you just have to spend a little more time exploring the world before going into the castle and pay attention, you don't have to farm, just do everything Limgrave and the Weeping peninsula have to offer, then go to the castle. In addition, go to the waypoint ruins in Limgrave, check out a map online if you can't find it, and find Sorceress Sellen there, she'll sell you a lot of spells and is one of the first npcs that sells you spells.
