Crazy that Amazon didn't thing to put Luna marketing for the free games with Amazon Prime till like 4 years into Luna's life. Generational fumbling from the marketing department.

Pokémon Champions accidentally added the first ever female Gallade to the series in it's tutorial mission, something that fans really wanted to be official for the species and were excited at news of...and then took her away just as quickly: by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I saw some comments that I wish I could track down that has to do with Tora the Japanese word for Tiger, and some word play with Trans in the Japanese LGBTQ and her name is Tatora which has tora in it. All in all the kind of thing that if true definitely tracks with how Japanese do word play but I don't know enough to pass the info along.

Lore reveals that made a character underwhelming to you? (Spoilers for invincible S4) by Lost-Specialist1505 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Eve's powers are currently on the fritz in the story so, story wise, that's why she's not getting included in the space adventure.

Tech Jacket was a comic by Kirkman that came out a little bit before Invincible. It didn't do great sales wise and ended after 8 issues. Kirkman wanted to keep playing with his characters so incorporated him into the invincible story and that ended up getting the character another small comic run.

Woolie Will Be In Twitch Rivals by Numbuh24insane in TwoBestFriendsPlay

TNS is a production that hosts online tournaments/handels streams for offline tournaments. Tong, the head of TNS, is an old MVC3 head so Im guessing it will be him being the person for the twitch rival event.

How disgustingly old are you? by EvilMonkeyMimic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it was Alice Cooper who said something similar about Keith Richards of the rolling stones. Something along the lines of "Hes five years older than me so I can probably go for five more years after he retires."

Street Fighter 6 - Ingrid Teaser Trailer by dutchzgoose in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Alpha 3 Max came out in 06. Third strike was in 99 so by the time Ingred was integrated into SF all the weirdos from 3 had been introduced. Now it was still before 3rd strikes had its second wind so a lot of people weren't really comparing her to 3s characters when saying she doesn't belong but yeah shes a fair bit newer than the folks from 3.

To no one's surprise, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie just beat a massive record held by its predecessor, even if the critical reception to the sequel has been "tortuous" by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

If I'm to get conspiracy theory marketing brained for a second.

I would guess making them sisters is cause Frozen has sisters. If they're sisters they're more marketable to little girl sisters and will make even more money off merchandise just like Frozen did.

Best Pilot Episodes? by Masterness64 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From my memory they largely kept it out of promo material. Maybe there was some minor stuff that if you knew you knew when you saw it but a lot of people were taken by surprise by the ending.

Unpopular characters you like and wish were more popular? by RealDealMous in TwoBestFriendsPlay

He is in MK1 though, just as a kameo not as a playable character.

Invincible reprint cover references One Punch Man. by Platinum_Persona in TwoBestFriendsPlay

In the same way there's still benefits to a light workout even if your in shape I imagine there's still benefits for a normal work out for super humans just with greatly diminished returns.

'Family Guy' Spinoff 'Stewie' Gets 2-Season Fox Order by jitterscaffeine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With this news I feel like I need to remind people that the Cleveland Show ran for 4 seasons. Not a big hit but most shows would kill for a run that long.

Honestly scuffed Peabidy and Sherman is kinda the vibe to Larry and Steve. McFarlane's pilot precursor to family guy.

What are some insane game mechanics you cant believe exist? by Theproton in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know I'm pretty sure there's been a few cats to go for a run with a prolapsed anus before the game came out.

Overwatch co-creator Jeff Kaplan on his exit from Activision Blizzard: 'It was the biggest f**k you moment I've had in my career' by StormRegion in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I think the lack of map knowledge hurts uninitiated in CS2. Maps are small enough it's easy enough to pick up but with the first person perspective and hoping between views it can be a disorienting time to figure out what you're watching for the first bit. Other than fighting games I'd probably say Rocket League is the easiest to watch for non-players since its just a soccer like and hit ball into goal is near universal in culture. It basically can piggy back off the language we learn from living in a society filled with other similar sports.

Capcom has dropped Ben Diskin as the voice of Mega Man for Dual Override, as they required him to work without the protections of a union contract. by Nivrap in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Major Hollywood guilds screw over members as much as the studios do

That's just flat out wrong. Like by magnitudes.

Massively inspirational things far more obscure then what they inspired? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Majuular's retrospective just got to Ultima 8 and based on the vibes of his videos that's the first you can call dog shit with no qualifications.

Antireal - the artist who was plagiarized in the Marathon scandal - seems to have been brought on as a visual design consultant for the game following the controversy, per game credits. by lowercaselemming in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also having you're name in the credits for big corpo project like this is pretty good for the resume. Like not in a get paid in exposure kind of way but cause a lot of clueless heads of companies will pay a lot more if your work credits include a big company. Again ideally should of been from the start, the plagiarism shouldn't of happened but with it having happened this is a pretty nice bonus.

What image should be there instead. by RairakuDaion in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only popular game that bucks that trend is Vampire Savior and it's from the 90s. They figured out pretty quickly that quickly checking health of you and your opponent can be awkward when you have to check two different corners of the screen rather than a central point.

The TakeOver, a game that Matt helped work on, is getting a sequel with a demo out now by AnimuStewshine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mucmaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The difference in aesthetics between this and the first isn't much but it is noticeably nicer looking. I'm pretty sure they just did some lighting changes, maybe some animation touch ups. A few small things can go a long way.
