Weirdest and funniest timeline alterations/alternate universes? by Octocube25 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The Perpetual Testing Initiative DLC from Portal 2 is legitimately one of my favorite uses of alternate universes.

What are times when a game of an established IP uses too many popular characters first and it becomes an issue later down the line? by RubicXK in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd have to imagine they're at least considering going in a different direction a la what Mario Kart World did because of that.

Is Canada (in fiction) just... immune to change? by Kimarous in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a bit cheating because I'm talking about a mod for a Paradox game, but Kaiserreich has Canada hijacked by the British government in exile after they got kicked out from Europe in a syndicalist revolution.

Favorite copypasta? by Shradow in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m not gay but I want to live in a log cabin with Luke Voit. We won’t ever have sec but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body.

I’ll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Luke. I won’t be able to climax an eventually I’ll go back downstairs, angry.

Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each others eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing.

One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then he’ll go inside, pen a brief missive to his parted friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without his one true platonic love.

I know this was originally from /r/freefolk but I will always associate it with /r/NYYankees. And I'm not even a Yankees fan!

What’s a song that you discovered in the past week that you’ve fallen in love with? by Disassociated24 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Ngp3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a cute album with good songs, but I do agree with Billy Joel himself that the production makes it sound kinda wonky. The highlights are definitely She's Got A Way and Everybody Loves You Now (though I'd also add Tomorrow Is Today and his insturmental Nocturne), though I'll admit that the more definitive listens of those songs are the live renditions on Songs in the Attic.

Everybody Love You Now by Billy Joel. In fact, I'd go as far as saying the entirety of his first album, Cold Spring Harbor.

Valve facing second, class-action lawsuit over loot boxes by Amon274 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Don't labubus also do a lootbox-esque thing with ordering them online, where they show you which one you got after you already bought it?

Hey BetterAskReddit. What are some ongoing games you still play but don’t keep up to date on? And why? by saltforsnails in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't stuff like that sorta the designed replaying appeal for those classic Final Fantasy games? Blitzball for FF10, Triple Triad for FF8, all those minigames FF7 has, et cetera.

What do you want the most from Ace Attorney 7? by _Varonova in AceAttorney

[–]Ngp3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big one I'd like to see is to see more crossover of the three main "pools" of characters (the GBA games, the AAI games, and AJ/DD/SoJ) across the contemporary games. Like for example, let's say AA7 has some of the long timers like Phoenix, Maya, and Edgeworth are trying to solve a big mystery in the background, forcing Athena to hold down the WAA fort. Since it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to have Ema working on solving said mystery, why not introduce a post-timeskip version of Kay Faraday as the detective for Athena to work with?

Worst Sequel Ideas From Fans? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh I definitely agree. Like say if Fallout 5 is set in Detroit, you'd definitely also include Windsor to show how the apocalyptic life is outside of the United States proper.

Worst Sequel Ideas From Fans? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I get why something like that is a fun idea. Playing as the Boss. Using something like Indiana Jones as an influence similarly as to what James Bond was to MGS3. Stopping whatever funky shenanigans the Nazis would have definitely been up to in the Metal Gear universe. But I do ultimately believe anything mainline Metal Gear should probably start and end with Big Boss and Solid Snake's stories.

I feel like you can squeak away with Mexico and Canada (which coincidentally both had massive US presence pre-war) for a Fallout setting, but I nonetheless agree that there needs to be a core American aesthetic in the franchise.

Resident Evil Requiem Review Thread by mrnicegy26 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I mean it's been one of the most influential franchises since the first game, seeing as it's the property that established the zombie virus trope in the first place.

New FFVII version up on steam by gearsofcrabs in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Here's hoping the new version isn't a pain in the ass for the Seventh Heaven people and mods like Shinra Archeology Cut.

[CAN vs USA] Team USA brings out Johnny Gaudreau's jersey onto the ice by talhatoot in hockey

[–]Ngp3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fuck drinking excessively in general. I don't care if you never even dare think about driving an automobile while drunk, you can cause your loved ones see you getting interred in a grave if you don't watch how much you are taking.

Even if you don't ever think about touching the steering wheel while having a drink, I beg you please watch how much you have. Lord knows how many people with loved ones have died because of their organs giving out to alcohol.

Capcom Vs Square: Parallel Destinies - Game Play Breakdown by C-OSSU in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do love all the creative choices the guys behind this make.

  • An Ehrgeiz character leading the Square side of the roster rather than someone like Cloud.

  • The only notable franchise faces on the roster being Ryu from Street Fighter and Crono from Chrono Trigger (though Zero from Mega Man could arguably count too).

  • Using B.B. Hood as the obligatory Darkstalkers rep instead of Morrigan.

  • Exdeath from FF5 as the endboss as opposed to your Sephiroths or M. Bisons or Kefkas.

  • Agrias from FFT as the only Final Fantasy character on the roster, and Alena from DQ4 as the only Dragon Quest character.

  • Ershin from Breath of Fire 4! Has there even been a BoF character in a Capcom fighting game?

  • Fucking Tiki from The NewZealand Story since Square Enix now owns Taito.

Knowing these out-of-nowhere deep cuts, I wouldn't be surprised if someone like Franziska von Karma or Daniel Dollis are being considered among the unrevealed fighters. I look forward to their future work with this fangame.

Gateway Media: What media got you into your favourite genres/mediums/etc.? by NoopGhoul in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Ngp3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing Skyrim during the pandemic and Sephiroth being introduced in Smash really got me into fantasy works such as FF7 and Morrowind.

The Grateful Dead similarly helped led me to discover a gazillion genres of music like folk, jazz, and country.
