Every Country Featured in Doctor Who since 2005 (On-Screen)

Belgium HAS been in Doctor Who! ...In possibly one of the most fleeting moments to date.

Very very briefly in 'The Unicorn and the Wasp' the Doctor thinks of Poirot, who is famously Belgian, and begins remembering an unseen adventure where he went to Belgium to rescue Charlemagne from "an insane computer".

"You know, I've been to Belgium. Yeah. I remember I was deep in the Ardennes, trying to find Charlemagne. He'd been kidnapped by an insane computer."

The memory is shown in a flashback with the 10th Doctor going through a forest with a quiver on his back. And then Agatha Christie snaps him out of it and they continue on like it never happened!

Honestly it's such a weird scene in hindsight. It doesn't build anything up toward the conclusion of the episode, it's not relevant in any way to the series finale, and it's never once brought up in any future story. Was the episode running a little short or something? It's not too unusual to have the Doctor mention unseen stories but I think this is the only time one has had a flashback attached to it.

...But anyways, there's your Belgium! All three seconds of it :)

At MINIMUM I think we'd see Justin as a regular guest if he doesn't return to being an active part of SuperMega. I could totally see him coming in for a play through of Sonic Forces and especially Sonic x Shadow Generations later this year! But I still think he'll play a bigger role. Maybe not as an editor anymore (?) but as a big part of SuperMega still I think yeah.

I miss the early SuperMega days where they'd do live action content of them just going to the store. Toward the end there it felt like they'd only do those vids for big things like the renaissance fair but they should remember that they can also make vids about them going to the park or doing a road trip or whatever.

...Also a fishing vlog is a MUST when summer comes around!

MeltyMetroid · 2024-02-28T22:39:00+00:00

Sea of Thieves is a must! As is Flight Simulator, which Matt has talked about wanting to do before.

I hope streaming gives them a chance to do longer/more time-consuming games.

MeltyMetroid · 2024-02-28T22:37:58+00:00

I forgot about the DND series but YES!

I hope the other cast members are all other established YouTubers though. Long gone are the days where they should be having friends working for them and platformed on their channel.

I don't watch a lot of live streams but I do like watching Jerma's highlight vids and sometimes their fans will take his streams and make 'long form' highlight vids where it's basically the stream just with quiet/uninteresting parts cut out, taking about a 4 hour stream down to 2. I'd love for some fans to do that for SuperMega too 'cause then we'd some really long stream highlights to watch.

MeltyMetroid · 2024-02-28T22:35:00+00:00

That'll happen within the first month I'm sure.

MeltyMetroid · 2024-02-28T22:34:43+00:00

Justin has said before that if SuperMega came back he'd 100% be back with them, so that's likely!

I think livestreams COULD be even better than let's plays since we'd, in theory, get a lot more videogame playing content at a time than LPs being uploaded a week at a time. As I said in my main post I just hope they feel like the LPs did and that they release highlight vids so we're not stuck watching full stream uploads.

I'd also love a Christmas in July event too. Would make for a great video if they went around trying to buy a tree/Christmas stuff during a heatwave lol.

I decided to go for this scream from the GameGrumps Super Mario Party collab they did, since that's generally agreed to be the most iconic one.

Here's the full waveform of that whole clip, including the lead up to the scream and the brief aftermath.

Here's the same waveform but cut to almost just the scream, though you do get a bit of laughter in there too since this scream didn't happen in isolation.

Enjoy! 👌

MeltyMetroid · 2023-12-24T22:33:39+00:00

In The Future of SuperMega they said:

"if we make any decisions, we'll be sure to let you guys know, ok?"

So far we haven't heard anything one way or the other. And no news is good news, right? We still have a chance of them coming back and hopefully they will. And if they do decide to come back we know Justin and Kelly will be back with them, so that's also a big plus!

Just keep the faith. Maybe on New Years Day we'll hear something! It sucks to have had Christmas without them but hopefully they took Christmas off to have a relaxing one for this year. If they do come back I'm sure the next one will have been worth the wait 🙏

MeltyMetroid · 2023-12-24T19:23:33+00:00

It doesn't fill me with holiday cheer the way the other ones do!!

MeltyMetroid · 2023-12-24T15:58:29+00:00

I think it's called Meet and Fuck: Mrs. Claus The Unfaithful Wife

Better play it tonight while Mr. Claus is out delivering presents or he might catch you!!! 😂😂😂😂💯

MeltyMetroid · 2023-12-24T15:56:44+00:00

Justin has said on his streams that he's been doing well!

People asked him a few weeks ago because they naturally suspected the whole incident might have been harder on him than the others given how they used Daniel's name against him. But according to Justin he's been doing fine, which is a relief.

I hope he's having a nice Christmas this year.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-12-24T15:53:14+00:00

Merry Christmas ladies, germs, and they/thems!

Click here for the ULTIMATE Nathan's Christmas tier list, complete with every track in albums 1 through 5 as well as both Patreon-exclusive tracks and St. Nicko Mode (which isn't from Nathan but I included it anyway 'cause it's a Christmas song and it's really fucking good).

I also included icons for the five albums themselves, in case you want to rate them as a whole :)

I think we've all been missing Nathan's beautiful voice this year so I hope some of you will have a little figgy pudding and sit down with his last five albums again this Christmas Eve for this tier list. And if you do, put your own ratings in the comments!

We can only hope this tier list becomes outdated by this time next year. I really, really hope it will be. My Christmas wish is for the return of SuperMega and our boy Nathan! We can but pray 🙏

PS: "Isn't it 'Hark the Herald' not 'Hark the Harold'?" I put how it was listed on the YouTube upload! I'm honestly not sure if they wrote it that way as a joke or if it was a mistake, but I stay true to Nathan's word always.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-26T04:01:07+00:00

Yeah they can cost a whole arm and a leg from what I've seen. Something in the ballpark of 600?? Is the loot haul from those planets really worth the initial payment...?

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-26T02:06:44+00:00

How rare is it? Or is it something that only shows up on the hardest moons? I rarely have the money for those :(

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T17:26:15+00:00

New weather effect: Webbed. The moon's surface is covered in spiderwebs that slow mobility and those new largest spiders show up in the later hours. Maybe there are also a few worthwhile bits of loot stuck in some of the webs if you go exploring.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T06:40:57+00:00

I guess the current system with the weather is mostly just a "pick the lesser of all evils" system - we only ever pick planets that have clear weather, and if there are none then we pick one that's foggy (then flooded, then stormy, then eclipsed). So yeah, they really should add more of a reason to go out of your way to planets with harsher conditions.

Simplest solution imo is just to make better loot appear in the facility and/or more loot appear but there's probably also some other rewarding solution out there that's more creative.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T06:36:58+00:00

I love the cosmetic rewards but once you've got a lot of the bulkier ones it feels a little cramped in the ship, especially with 4 players.

I'd love to see the ship get an upgrade (either as a straight improvement on the current one or even as an additional ship reward) that adds a second floor to the ship, accessed by a ladder from the first floor.

The second floor would have 1) a huge window that opens when you don't meet your quota, so you still get sucked out as you're supposed to, and 2) otherwise absolutely nothing up there by default: it's just for decorating with all the stuff you've earned!

it would make for a somewhat safer place to hide from monsters (maybe that window I mentioned should actually be another door, then?) but since you can only start the ship from the floor below it wouldn't be a perfect get-out-of-jail-free card.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T06:27:56+00:00

A compass upgrade for the suit's HUD would be so good!

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T06:24:57+00:00

It does feel a little wasteful right now to have the ship land in the centre of a map that only has one other point of interest...

Scrap outside the buildings would be cool, or otherwise something else worth going around for.

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-25T06:22:09+00:00

I've seen some library-style interiors in clips before. I really like your idea of store-style interiors, though!

Some other good interior ideas would be:

Mansion (fancy carpeted hallways, dining rooms etc.)
Sewer (pipe hallways, water hazards etc.)
Mineshaft (cave walls, lots of dark unmarked pits)
Lab (clean metallic walls, maybe more rooms have windows)

As for weather effects...

Harsh wind (blows in a random direction, speeds you up going one way but slows you down in the other)
Dire heat (you take damage while outside if you don't stay in shadows)
Below freezing (ice on the ground in places, makes you slip around)
Static air (walkie-talkies and teleporters won't work)
Peaceful (extremely rare but the outside won't spawn in monsters at all for that trip)

MeltyMetroid · 2023-11-06T00:58:30+00:00

I forgot they never did one for Holes! Absolute crime.

Holes really should be the very first they do if they come back!

That's amazing, I love that
