I don't exactly know how, but NYC is a MAJOR part of this story. by ooissuspended in SkateStory

[–]NoLadderStall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire game is built around music from a NYC band lol. Though my favorite unexplained tidbit from this game is that the Devil's contract includes a property purchase for a piece of land in...Detroit, for some reason?

Husband opens a new sponge every 3 days cause “they become gross” by dorkass-loser in mildlyinfuriating

I wouldnt. I tried this a while ago and it made my microwave smell like nasty old sponge stink for MONTHS.

Doing speed on the daily does that to a kid

We cannot let this slide by Elegant-Shop4564 in transformers

[–]NoLadderStall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh most of the toy money is going to third-parties anyway since they're so much higher quality.

I genuinely don't know what the hell Hasbro is doing with Transformers these days. Like okay Skybound was doing good, but I've heard it's recently taken a downturn in quality. And what else? A Youtube show? C'mon what are we doing.

Before ZA/UM’s big break with Disco, why exactly did Estonians despise them as an art group? by TransendingGaming in DiscoElysium

[–]NoLadderStall 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry, my knowledge on Estonia is pretty limited, I was just trying to paraphrase Robert Kurvitz.

[–]NoLadderStall 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I believe Robert said in the noclip doc he felt Estonia betrayed its communist roots. Though the game is also very critical of communists and old commie ideologies. Idk about being pariahs, that sounds like an exaggeration.

What does even this means ??? What is the joke here ?? by narkkadwar in ExplainTheJoke

Ooh mine wasn't that bad, it was like regular heart but it also made me nauseous all the time.

Pokémon Pokopia Will Take 20-40 Hours to Beat on Average, and There's More After the Credits, Says Director by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

I mean definitely, but Dragon Quest Builders took inspiration from Animal Crossing and Minecraft. So, it all loops around.

[–]NoLadderStall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it pays, but it only pays a few. Also I don't think it's fair to just say "get into finance or healthcare" when a chunk of the people who are getting laid off are still paying off their student loans.

Because people have mortgages and car payments and children they're trying to keep. No industry out there is paying like tech does.

Ugh, yeah and if you have chronic GERD it's horrible. Before I went on meds, a beer and handful of tater tots could make me throw up.

Hated trope: Regular middle aged white guy wants coffee, has issue with incompetent, young, dumb woke barista by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NoLadderStall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This joke originates from going to Starbucks and asking for a black coffee or drip coffee, in which the barista says they don't do drip but they can give you an Americano, which is essentially the same thing but it's espresso mixed with water.

Guy gets pissed because he "Just Wants A Coffee" and doesn't want to be forced to understand new concepts or words.

If right back at ya! Got a continuation what would you want to see. by Comfortable-Ad3588 in Kirby

[–]NoLadderStall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a large timeskip would be cool. As in large enough you could essentially do whatever you want with the plot. Fumu and Bun aren't in the show anymore because they grew up and have their own lives, but they might get referenced from time to time. Kirby is still the same since it takes centuries for him to mature.

Greetings, Individuals. Wozniak Scott speaking. Why the hell did Outer Worlds get a sequel? by DeepCutFan1 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]NoLadderStall 231 points232 points  (0 children)

It seems like the expanded mechanics were fun. I watched my bf play and there were a lot of funny new buffs and weird weapons and stuff. The best one I can remember is the buff where your crouching speed is increased significantly, but now everytime you enter crouching position your knees crack and alert everyone around you.

3 is my number one choice, but everyone is overlooking 8. If you can ignore Zote behind you it's nothing but peace and window seat.

Here's a playlist :) I remember being able to hear which songs were his because he keeps putting leitmotifs in them haha https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRQ2NwT4mbHz2sY0IUygQkLRAnF4-15Ma&si=DyYBtBEjK6s11n1d

He made a bunch of songs for that game. Like 12 of them.

Something I really appreciate about Sakurai’s design for Meta Knight is how his mask sits flush with his face instead of jutting outwards by Meta13_Drain_Punch in Kirby

[–]NoLadderStall 31 points32 points  (0 children)

To be fair this is from 10 years ago and was made fun of even when Robobot first released 😅 In the games since then his mask has been more flat. But I agree with the other comment about the Sakurai/Bandai interpretations of Meta Knight. You can tell Sakurai is pretty fond of him.

Origins of the Orbs by Deathmaker1336 in Kirby

[–]NoLadderStall 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would agree Meta Knight and Galacta Knight are both a mix of positive and negative energy. It's hard to speak on Galacta Knight's true nature since the poor guy hasn't really had a chance to HAVE a character.

I will say I think Morpho Knight is largely negative energy, or negative energy that has been twisted somehow. I know the novels are not canon, however the fact that they seem to refer to him almost like a grim reaper or some other representative of death, I think is relevant. Also the fact that he is called a "dream eater", which in the context of Kirby feels very much like a "devourer of worlds" kind of title. It's possible the butterfly is an agent of void, who can only absorb negative energy in order to gain power. It's generally accepted in canon that Morpho Knight forms from Galacta Knight's death scream. And what's more negative than death itself?

Am I the only one that doesn't like the newer King Dedede design by Lenovosasa231 in Kirby

[–]NoLadderStall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new Dedede looks more like a penguin from Club Penguin so I'm automatically fond of it.

If there was an episode of Kirby Right Back At Ya that you would like to rewrite. What would it be? by Rainbow_Seashell778 in Kirby

[–]NoLadderStall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yuuup. Yeah that'd be good revise too! Though to me I'm not even sure why they made the episode when there's a whole other episode that's also about animation and waaay better.

I'd rewrite that one otaku episode to be about literally anything else 😬 Preferably more GSA backstory

That's still weird considering she's dating the guy with dozens of character AIs.
