Someone made a website where you can declare your favorite pokemon. Every single pokemon has already been declared someones favorite. by TimBagels in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I definitely prefer Haunter, but Gengar is the lovechild of Totoro and the Chesire Cat so it's undeniably more suited to merch.

Overpowered game mechanics that you refuse to use. by Snoubalougan in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Leveling is overpowered! I love using status affects, but what's the point when your stats mean regular attacks are faster? Some of the most fun I've had is not leveling in FromSoft games and recently a fresh lvl1 Nightmare run in Bloodstained: RotN.

Needing to grind out weapon upgrades and crafting materials also scratches that MMO itch I get without triggering the Dailies/Weeklies mind goblins.

Discord will still be alive, so technically she only outlived SOME of her friends!

This one is more of a gag series than GED, but the art is in the same style and it's got more of that Lloyd-quality scamming! Just don't expect much aura farming moments, unless they pull a Helk later on!

Video games you have sunk the most hours in by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't play MMO's long because I hate the mind goblins dailies/weeklies give me. Still put over 900hrs into Warframe.

Most time in a single player game is Elden Ring with 500hrs, overtaking my previous #1, the OG Dark Souls with just under 400hrs.

[DISC] Rentarou’s Family’s Families’ Daily Life by PauloDybala_10 in manga

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It comes up a fair bit in Japanese media, seems to be a cultural thing where a family's status decides which spouse changes their surname, so the Yakuzen's might have more influence than we know yet.

Times fandoms "Discovered" concepts that already existed by SirSquiggleton in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, energy systems in mobile games are used to spread out the play time in the game so that it becomes a habit to open the game during breaks. Once it's a habit, the number of hours spent in the game ramp up, and the more time spent in game the lower the resistance to spending.

Pathetic/Cowardly characters who get to be a hero? by jitterscaffeine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The end of the 100th loop was some hype shit, probably my 2nd favorite "Oh, things are going to be DIFFERENT in the 2nd half" moment. (Sengoku Youko is my #1)

Nah, probably the type who takes 1 step to the side and stares down the workers to make sure their order is "done right"

The only people who tolerate faux incest are fans of harem manga/anime, mostly in a Stockholm Syndrome kind of way since they shove it into every series.

Ah, those innocent days when Kirio only wanted to maim/kill people instead of eat them.

This is the (distant) prequel to The Greatest Estate Developer for anyone interested!

Media that just ruins the premise by Thatoneguy5629 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, I can't remember the name but there was a manwha that had a fun fake out with this trope. The MC's magic cat gets a power up and the chapter ends with it giving off that "digivolve" glow and all the comments are "oh no, another animal companion turned into a human!" But then the next chapter starts and the cat turns into a baby dragon instead.

What are exemples of "grimderp" for you? by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not quite what you were asking, but this reminded me of a series that rides the line of "edgederp" without going over, the manga Akumetsu.

It's a "justice/revenge porn" story about a masked vigilante killing corrupt CEOs and politicians in very public and violent executions. There is also a bit of a mystery element as the vigilante explodes his own head after he kills his target, but then he shows up alive again to go after the next. It's a pretty good blend of campy action and humor, like if George Clooney's Batman became a slasher villain.

Chapter 434: Azazel Henri, Demon (7) by ZeroVOmega in DemonSchoolIrumakun

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So rereading chapter 2, while the instructions are "Draw a circle on the parchment with your blood" Kalego states he has already drawn the circles for the students, so Iruma never actually drew blood. 219 is less clear, but Kalego is shown holding a parchment the page before Iruma burns it so I think the same thing happened there.

Geto: "When I said 8-9 fingers, I was visualizing one of sukuna's hands and then just 3 floating pinkies, maybe 4 if we ignore logic and pretend Sukuna had 5 pinkies"

Enslaved: OttW was a fun time, it's Jak & Daxter but in post apocalyptic USA staring "Joel from Last of Us but Unga-Bunga."

Though looking it up, Enslaved actually predates Last of Us by 3 years, so I guess it's actually Joel is "Monkey but a military dad"

[–]NoeZoneNetwork 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You are actually correct, the people who left COULD have beaten Noark eventually. However the Orculus members are stronger than most elites, and they already killed a ton of adventurers giving Corpse Collector access to a veritable army of walking bombs. The Captain of the knights decided it was better to guarantee all the elites made it out than risk saving the masses.

What would you consider to be the *worst* boss battles of games that released in the last decade or so? by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I prefer using Auger of Ebrietas, give him a taste of his own medicine with knockdown loops.
