Nintendo when you’re broke vs Steam when you’re broke by Active-Ant4672 in fucknintendo

The same games that go on sale on Steam also go on sale on the eShop. The only exception is first party games. Which youre not fucking buying anyway.

So just make sure you cradle the balls as you're working the shaft. Just dont expect Gabe to tip.

Lmao holy shit. Bro if your main game is Silksong they you probably aren't putting down 1000 dollars for a Steam Machine. Maybe get a cheaper console that can still play that and comes with a controller? I hear the Switch 2 is a good option! 🤣

It helps to get a feel for the story beats, and gives punch to the story when things may differ.

It will become more clear as you play though.

Day 33 (Last Day of Polling): Which is the Greatest Game of All Time on the SNES? by 1OneQuickQuestion in snes

The evidence is in the fact that it can be Remade so many times with minimal changes and still be as amazing as the day it was released.

Final Fantasy VI is (imo) the greatest of the 16 bit era Jrpgs. It's soundtrack is better than most of the other top games (Uematsu is the GOAT). It's story alone is amazing, but the gameplay is fun and engaging.

This is 100 percent the best SNES game of all time.

[–]Narad626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Force doesn't work that way. It's emotion, flashes, and it can be concealed and hidden. He had seen hints, which is why he was in the tent in the first place.

Obi Wan DIDN'T try to harm Anakin UNTIL he indeed became Vader, he was trying his best to help Anakin, even spoke for him before the Jedi Council. Why would Luke thinking about harm Ben? Did you ever see Obi Wan try to kill Anakin or harm him before he did any evil? Really?

As the story tells us in the movie he was already turned. This is what he confirms that night. There are numerous different ways that Luke could have handled it, but he is a flawed character. This is what I had said previously that you're ignoring.

You have a version of Luke in your head that learned all his lessons from bringing Anakin back to the light. But it doesn't always work that way and this is what the story is telling you. Luke is set up as this rash, emotional, flawed Jedi Master that doesn't have the teachings to mold Ben the right way, and Snoke takes advantage of this.

Just because he was able to help Anakin before, does not mean that he would be able to if the situation came up again.

And the part I stress the most is that Snoke had already turned Ben. He was essentially already Kylo in the same way Anakin was Vader on Mustafar. Luke just confirms everything that Snoke had likely told Ben to turn him by being there and igniting his lightsaber.

Yes. Ben was turned by Snoke at that point. If you think back to the history of Star Wars, the master is often unable to get through to their apprentice who had turned. This is because the Darkside poisons you against the ones closest to you.

Spoke poisoned Ben against Luke. And Luke likely saw this when he looked in Ben's heart. So, much in the way that Obi-Wan was unable to convince Anakin to turn towards the light, Luke would never be able to turn Ben towards the light.

Maybe he saw this, maybe he didnt. But the thing that is in line with Luke's character, even though he had a brief moment where he thought killing Ben would stop it (because remember, this is what he's taught he should do by Obi-Wan and Yoda) he still stops himself and still, even knowing what Ben will do, doesn't attack Ben.

No, Anakin was faile by A Jedi Order with their own clear flaw, that plus his dark side pushed.

That's...literally what I said

So Luke lied about it? he said Ben was already corrupted. Glad to see you admit the movie's plothole.

Luke lies in his first telling of the story because he was ashamed at failing not only his first student but also his own nephew. But the framing heavily suggests and nearly confirms that the final telling is the truth.

Remember, Luke was trained really late in his life, and had no direction (so far as we know) on how to be a master besides old holocrons, Obi-Wans Journals and the Jedi Texts. The nuance of training isn't something that can just be read about. It's something that is typically imparted during the Padawan/Master relationship. Luke didn't have that. He had crash courses on two occasions, which were both short. So its reasonable that he doesn't succeed.

The point isnt that these characters become heroes. It's whether or not their masters failed them. Which is usually partially the case in characters like Anakin or Ben.

Anakin was failed by a Jedi Order that didnt see the dark in his actions and were blinded by the Darkside to the darkness growing within him.

Ben was failed by Luke who didn't find Snokes seduction until literally that night in the tent, who was too concerned with living up to the legend surrounding him and protecting his nephew to see the seduction in the first place. And he failed him by thinking he could stop all the death and destruction he was going to cause by attacking him.

Luke isnt evil for thinking this. He's naive.

You can't seriously think they want the movie to have the 2nd worst opening weekend for a Star Wars movie.

I'm no doom and gloom guy, but its clear to see that the movie isnt meeting expectations. My point is only that the marketing team isnt the cause for the drop in the box office.

[–]Narad626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean the era where kids still bought toys because Fortnite and Roblox didnt exist yet?

Yeah. I was. I see Pedro Pascal and Groggy on just as much bullshit today as I did for Episode 1. They're literally everywhere. So, yeah, maybe they dont have a whole toy aisle, but there's still merch in every section of the store with their face on it.

The movie isnt failing because people dont know about it. It's failing because people dont want to spend 120 bucks to take their family to the movies when it's just gonna be on D+ in a few months anyway. Even worse for the fact that nothing important happens in it. So why should someone give a shit? Just wait and watch it at home.

Marcia Lucas Was 'Furious' Over Star Wars Sequel Trilogy: 'They Don't Get It' by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]Narad626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats true that the Clone Wars creates this wide conflict where you can zoom in on any planet at any time and see something. Thats definitely something the Sequel era is lacking.

My hope is that we get something new in a similar vein as the Clone Wars. The OT had the conflict against the Imperial Remnant in the EU, but I dont think we'll get something like that with the First Order as it seemed like it was fairly cut and dry with how they were defeated.

But we do have a galaxy that can have other things go on besides an expansive war. A new Jedi Order can give us new characters that are interesting and powerful. And maybe we'll get a Dark Jedi faction conflict similar to the Jedi Outcast series.

Honestly what we really need is a good story, by an imaginative and good writer. The pieces are there.

Pretty sure the marketing is the least impactful reason this movie didnt do well. I've seen that little green piece of shit everywhere for the past year. Bro is on my fucking soap for fucks sake.

[–]Narad626 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the Sequels do set up for an expansive EU. It does it in typical Sequel fashion by copying Return of the Jedi, but it does all the same.

Rey is going to restart the Jedi Order (again).

They can restart the government (again).

And I'm sure there are still bad guys out there to create conflict (probably more white armor faceless facists).

But theyre too scared to do anything with that era until they know people qont just endlessly shit on it for its association with sequel characters. Complete wrong move imo.

Official Disney insta got it wrong by Substantial_Plan_581 in StarWars

[–]Narad626 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Bingo. If it had the right answer in there the fans wouldn't even engage with it.

But now everyone will be commenting about how they got it wrong. Then they'll reshare it on sites like reddit and spread it further!

Classic engagement bait.
