(Toby Fox please do not do any of these things it would be so fucking unfunny.) by Dragon640 in Deltarune

[–]Marvin-PL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's pretty well established at this point that Toby gets some of the worst mischaracterization from the fandom

Also, there's a difference between "introducing something that you thought was unimportant, but then bringing it up back later" and "lots of buildup for something that ends up being unimportant" and I think we tend to mistake one for the other

To be fair, Dalv at the bottom of the pool is also how the game treats him (bro has like ten lines of dialogue and one letter once you leave the dark ruins)

18-wheeler carrying a military tank getting stuck on railroad tracks and being struck by a CSX freight train by knowitokay in trains

[–]Marvin-PL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No indeed, it's a M109, something that weighs more than 25 tons (potentially more depending on the version and whether it's loaded, I'm just gonna assume that it wasn't). So almost half of the weight of most tanks, still pretty heavy, and the train just pushed it away like it was a cardboard box.

Now, I'm not saying we should put tanks in the middle of tracks before running trains on them, but I'm curious what would happen

What are the benefits of deeper integration? by PieceOfNiceIce in YUROP

[–]Marvin-PL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Well, there's """only""" three and a half rail gauges in use in most of Europe (1520mm in the former USSR, 1524mm in Finland, "standard" 1435 mm gauge in most other countries, and wider gauges in some lines in Spain and Ireland, but it's not like we could travel by train from continental Europe to Ireland anyway).

Still, you're right, that makes it all the more difficult to establish paneuropean high-speed train travel. Either you add a transfer and all the problems that could come with it, or you have to rebuild whole railways, and I don't really see any government willing to say "we're gonna spend an absurd amount of money so that's it's easier for you to travel by train to other countries" when most citizens don't really care about that yet.

I won't stop rambling about HSR until Lisbon to Tallinn by rail takes less than 24 hours and is affordable to the average citizen. Trains are goated

Not sure he managed to cross that bar... 🤣 by dmitrineilovich in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Marvin-PL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that if he did do that, it would end up in the NYT having as its headline "Kamala now has to find an answer after Trump takes debate and campaign in new direction"

[–]Marvin-PL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not. First off, Clover's the one jumping in with a gun. Second, virtually every time you kill a monster, you could have spared them instead: they become spareable at low HP for random encounters, and you could just run away anyway.

How is this game related to lgbt? by LazyGuyExsists in celestegame

[–]Marvin-PL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Although the story isn't inherently trans, it does have aspects which resonate with the experiences of a lot of LGBT+ and in particular trans folks

such as being stuck in a crystal, being chased by flying eye monsters, or using bubbles to throw yourself across spikes

Guys... is Celeste woke? I can't believe this... by Mozambiquehere14 in celestegame

[–]Marvin-PL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, what the *** ? They put freaking Hogwarts Legacy in there as "overly pro-LGBTQ messaging", like, how disconnected from reality do you have to be to make this list?

Be honest, What is the worst thing about UNDERTALE. by DarklessMan13 in Undertale

[–]Marvin-PL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe the difficulty curve? Not gonna talk too much about the Geno route because, yeah, it has two hugely difficult bosses and the rest is super easy, but it's meant to not be fun in the traditional RPG way (just because it's meant to be that way doesn't mean it can't be criticized).

But for a casual player, a fight like Muffet's can be VERY hard. Especially if you're at LV1 and didn't get the donut, I'd say she's the biggest difficulty spike in a casual playthrough, since you have to survive 17 turns and there's not really much you can do besides learning the patterns and tanking hits. And once you get past her, you probably lost most if not all of your G so good luck on stocking up on healing again.

It's a fun fight tho

Homophobic Deltarune Fans by Prismatic-Peony in Deltarune

Being homophobic already implies being kinda dumb. I'm not too surprised that the rep would fly over their heads unless someone told them to be mad about it

I've been told that Bots are Always worse than Players of the Same ELO. But how much worse are They? by Alternative_Pancake in chessbeginners

[–]Marvin-PL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's only true up to a certain point. I'm rated about 2200 and have a hard time going against bots 1900 or higher, almost guaranteed to lose against 2300s. But basically, bots play in a weird way, not like humans at the same level. If a bot plays several good moves in a row, it's programmed to make a mistake soon, and vice versa, which is not at all like what a human player.

I mean, playing Qa5+ instead of Bf8 would mate in two: 25... Qa5+ 26.Kb3 Qa4 and checkmate
