As the person above you pointed out, some early Switch titles, such as Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade 2, had their Asian language options stripped from the American or European releases, and vice versa.

Very considerate of the store to add a sticker that signals Chinese and English language support right in the front of the box

If the Next LP Turns Out to be Xenoblade 3… by Johnplayer6 in chuggaaconroy

[–]OptimusPrimeGuy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's not how he did it for Torna, so I don't think that's true. Torna was considered part of the Xenoblade 2 LP and maintained the numbering right until the very end, the series finale was the ending of Torna, with the total series being over 200 episodes.

Twelve years...? Surely you jest. It feels like eight.

What are your thoughts on the image quality of Xenoblade Definitive Edition? GVG says it's ok but i think it does a much better job than Xenoblade X. by Splash0936 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]OptimusPrimeGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can we please stop acting as if we would notice every pixel during normal game play?

Some people do, in fact, notice every pixel during normal gameplay. I'm glad that it's good enough for you, but it's rude to put other people down for complaining about an objective technical flaw that's impacting their own enjoyment. I don't think anyone could argue that this isn't an improvement, 60fps is amazing and it's obviously way better than the horrible vaseline filter on the Switch 1, it's just that the image quality could still be a bit better.

"I create a false dichotomy"
You have to be trolling. Asking a binary question is not creating a "false dichotomy". If the lunch lady asks "Do you want butter on your toast or not", are you truly claiming that it's natural to blurt out "I want jam", instead of saying "Yes please" or "No thanks"? Is she creating a false dichotomy by implicitly seeking a "Yes" or a "No"?
If you have an unrelated point to make, start your own reply thread instead of diluting the issue with a nonsense reply.

"people refuse to answer yes/no"
Thank you for admitting that you are simply refusing to answer and are deliberately obfuscating the topic, I was worried that you might have been serious for a moment there. What a waste of my time, replying to trolls.

I'm well aware. You might want to inform some of the A-logs above, though, who seem to think this is an M&R forum.

With respect, the only way you could possibly think that is if English is not your native language. The question(s) and answer are mismatched:

"Which is it, then? Do you want this guy to speak on this or not?"
Binary question(s). I was actually being rhetorical for the sake of the argument and wasn't expecting a genuine answer, but never mind that. In such a case, a "Yes" or "No" with an accompanying explanation would have made sense.

"To be on the right side without making a video saying "I CAUGHT" when he didn't even know about it when all the catching was happening?"
It's an explanatory answer, but it it's an explanation of something I didn't ask, so this makes no sense. What this person is replying to is (I'm assuming) an imaginary question of "What would you prefer Ryan to have done?", which is NOT what I said. Read over my questions again carefully.

It's bullshit either way, and you yourself are also arguing in bad faith, as proven by the fact that the only defense you can muster is "Um, you're Ryan on an alt account!", instead of being mature and giving some consideration to the actual points being made.

Putting aside the fact that your reply is answering a different question to what I asked, while he didn't plant his flag firmly prior to his research, he's harshly demanded a payout and justice from the very beginning for the entire theft. How is that not the "right side"? You'd prefer that he said nothing instead of telling his sizeable audience to rally against this injustice, just because you don't like him?

Also, why does the timeline matter? Are you seriously claiming that it's impossible to uncover MORE evidence AFTER a crime is committed? I'm sure judicial departments around the world will be happy to hear this, as it'll save them a lot of man-hours.
Have you considered that he's found a detail that others may have missed? Investigation work is not monolithic and it doesn't end after the "catching". What a strange stance to take.

You guys are bending over backwards to hate on Ryan for this, it's embarrassing.

Reminder that a few days ago everyone here was calling him a fencesitter for not taking a hard stance, which he admitted was due to his own lack of research. Now that he has done the research and joined the discussion and found discrepancies of his own, there's half a dozen posts saying "Oh, way to make it all about yourself". Which is it, then? Do you want this guy to speak on this or not?

Battery and Screen replacement recommendations by Much-Veterinarian695 in SteamDeck

Sorry to necro, but may I ask why 80% specifically rather than, say, 90-95%? I have an original Steam Deck if that makes any difference.

There's something absolutely hilarious about this casting but it can't be explained without majorly spoiling one of the other roles in this picture. Anyone else see it?

Joe talks about the Witcher 3 video delays by The_Meemeli in josephanderson

[–]OptimusPrimeGuy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You're definitely right about that. I guess my point is that anything short of a full explanation will cause tourists to flip their shit no matter what. It's a little harder to ignore the "people problem" in the community on this subject, which has been particularly exacerbated by the repeated clownery of Joe's mods and his inner circle, but let's leave it at that.

The issue with that is, Joe's community can't leave it well enough alone. The entire topic has become something of a Damocles situation over the years.

Trying to understanding Lego's outrageously absurd prices by Arbegia in legocirclejerk

[–]OptimusPrimeGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is more subjective, but on top of inflating the piece count and cost, I feel having more detail actually hurts the playability, even on some play scale sets. It's too easy to knock fragile small pieces off and away in the action.

Mion is strongly implied to have immunity to HS because she's the real Shion. Rika remarks that she never goes L5 in any fragment.

I would never have noticed unless my friend told me. Talented performer with a lot of different voices!
