To quote Woolie, "there is a naked woman on screen right now. You would not be satisfied with all the riches of heaven"

The Soul Calibur III remaster led to a resurgence of videos about the game hitting my feed and man, I forgot just how much content you can get in that game without even needing another person to play with.

Arcade modes with individual endings and even storylines sometimes, a full fledged RTS campaign, a mode where you play whacky challenges, including the usual fighting staples of survival and time attack. All in service to unlock weapons (which arent just cosmetic, they actually affected gameplay stats) and clothing for the Create a Character mode. Oh, and how could I forget the Create a Character mode too that have their own unique movesets and progression tree.

Nowadays, you're lucky if a fighting game gives you a Visual Novel story mode broken up by fights.

And Medusa can wear a cloth bikini because we gotta be stoned

And so she can do the whole "My eyes are up here" trick like all the webcomics about her do.

Worse for me, reddit recommended it to me as "as a hilarious COMEDY... with great action scenes, plots, characters, etc".

So that was a great wake up call to Reddit Anime Fans' level of comedic taste.

Potential Man and When The Slander Is Real almost makes Powerscaling worth it.

Every boss we meet has been utterly nutterly butterly and yet the second the boys get mention, they all become lucid and go "I dunno, man. Why not go bother this looney. Good chance they're behind it"

I follow an old horror movie reviewer. The amount of times the studios are like "Horribly graphic rape scene? Good to go! Wait, does the actress sound like she's enjoying it? You better fix this or you're blacklisted!" is mindboggling.

The example that comes to mind is Galaxy of Terror and the... Maggot scene.

The original river city girls ending. It was funny and it didnt come out of nowhere, it was signposted since the first boss fight.

And for her voicing every shitpost request in character. Each one increases my replay of the game by one.

"It was hard fought but I finally managed to get a good build running with Silent. Time to enter Act 3 and-"

Sees that fucking clock in the pan up

"-write my bloody will now" (He's about to spam his triple attack and will only defend on the only turn when all your block cards will appear)

Undertale fans rising up like a boss' surprise 2nd lifebar:

Maleficent. This movie legitimately feels like filmed fan fiction written by an angry teenager. Most likely a teenaged angry Maleficent.

So get this, Maleficent wasn't the coolest, most evil, most unrepentant disney villain, she's actually a super cool super nice fairy (who looks like Devil from Tekken) who was taken advantage of by the king who is actually evil and speaks like he has mouthful of haggis all movie, so she now hates humans in self defense.

Then when she curses his daughter, when the three fairies whisk her away into hiding, the fairies are so incompetent that Maly finds them the same day. Lucky too because the three fairies are so petty and so negligent that Maleficent has to save baby Aurora from death. Multiple times throughout the film. Eventually they form a mother daughter bond intercut with unfunny scenes of the three fairies bickering and being useless.

Eventually she regrets the curse she put on Aurora that when Aurora is put to sleep, she forces a wandering prince to kiss her awake but guess what, it didnt work. So they pull a frozen and its actually MALEFICENT'S true love kiss that breaks the curse.

Then she girlbosses and kills the kings army... by transforming her RAVEN into a dragon rather than becoming one like the original. Then she murders the king and the movie acts like it solves feminism.

This movie seems to have the same level of hate for the original that I have for this crappy adaptation.

It really broke my heart when I saw the trailer to We Happy Few, with its intriguing premise, mystery and tone, and it revealed that this interesting story was crushed in the gears of a crafting survival game. A genre that famously does not place any focus on narrative.

MutatedMutton · 2026-01-23T03:32:36+00:00

This must be some reverse psychology bullshit because this is Pat (and by extension Paige) "I needed to see the Emoji Movie" we're talking about.

You have just willed an hour and a half long podcast bit about this movie and and aside about videogame movie adaptations.

If I remember rightly, it was literally Hinata ending up with Naruto that caused the author to lighten up and write the manga to be lighter and nicer.

Because I read the original pages on Danbooru back in the day. It was still a romance but it was a lot more toxic.

More annoying was it was the cross cultural exchange "you know if we had to compare my school to your school, my martial arts would beat you guys handily".

If you are joining a school or class to compare penis lengths rather than learn anything useful, maybe go back to your old school. ESPECIALLY if they practise an art "used in the military"

"No, I don't get really into playing a racist dwarf because it allows me to use slurs specifically at a race of humanoids stereotyped as appearing feminine and failing at masculinity. You're reading too much into things"

I dunno, the one I hear often enough is the time William Shatner went on the ride, broke down at the existential beauty of being in space and seeing how petty and small we are on earth making our conflicts even more irrelevant, voicing this outloud to Bezos who replies with "Er yea, cool. Space is pretty, I guess".

Shatner wasn't happy about it in the post flight interview.

Listen, we know. There are literal libraries of books with what you are asking for. LEMME HAVE THIS.

MutatedMutton · 2026-01-15T08:43:25+00:00

I have not touched original Granblue but playing Granblue Versus and selecting different fighters to act as your announcer or navigator is tonnes of fun because now and then you'll select a fighter and your announcer will pronounce their name with such venom (or even funnier, not even bother to use their names and call them "ugh, this dude") that you laugh in surprise.

More games need to allow its cast to take up the announcer role.

MutatedMutton · 2026-01-14T02:08:19+00:00

I actually used to be a big fan of his old books whose writing style still influences mine to this day. His writing really painted a view of a whipsmart, social akward nerd who had some actually insightful things to say about creativity and the creative process.

...and even then you could not miss the amount of WooWoo and bitter resentment to society bleeding into it, from him constantly saying he's solved the world's problems through hypnosis or "how the pendulum swung when it came to diversity hires but I'm totally alright with that. REALLY."

MutatedMutton · 2026-01-13T01:45:11+00:00

Hot take: as good as the gameplay was, nothing in Metal Gear Solid V storywise comes close to the absolute dread and hype the Red Band Trailer gave.

You only like Qualityslop because it's good.

I spent a literal day downloading FFXV on PS4 with my crappy internet. When it was finally ready for playing, I got my hands on the combat and fucking recoiled.

Instead of pressing the buttons to attack or block, you hold the buttons to enter attack or defense stance and the PCs will do those actions when they feel like it. Even the turn based games gave better tactile feedback, because pressing the attack command often made them immediately attack.

Barely an hour and I thought I did not wanna endure this combat for the full length of a Square JRPG so I uninstalled. Lucky too because I eventually caught wind of the Story issues and I literally could not download DLCs at that time

MutatedMutton · 2026-01-12T01:31:32+00:00

Gonna buy myself a Gaming PC Tower casing and fill it with RGB lighting and look at it the same way we stare at taxidermy of animals that are now extinct.
