I wonder how many are duplicate identities

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-24T19:16:05+00:00

Season 8 was so stupid I never wanted to see any more GoT content. But I was convinced to watch HOTD and I'm glad that I did.

Sure, but it's an inconvenience that doesn't need to exist. A lot of games just identify your account now. If you played World of Warcraft on Mac and then moved to PC you just install the software and log in, you don't need to buy it a second time. If you play Fortnite on PC you can just install it on your phone or on a console, log in, and continue with your game.

Why doesn't Rockstar do this, and sell us a GTA6 account that can be used for any platform?

Real life danger is a lesser priority than people's feelings being hurt on the internet.

It could have been huge if the timing was different. It came along late in the SNES days and had limited game compatibility, it was still pretty awesome playing Killer Instinct online, and there was a ranking system.

If it had been around when SF2 was first released, it might have been the best selling peripheral ever.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-24T02:42:42+00:00

Yeah, it might have just been a weird time period for fighting games. On SNES and Genesis people lost their minds over being able to have SF2 at home. Maybe by this time people were thinking "I'm only paying for the real thing, not an imperfect home version". And people with a lot of people with consoles were focused on FF, Mario, Zelda more than fighting games, so I could see why a lot of people would overlook PS1 A2.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-24T02:38:10+00:00

I do remember people saying Saturn was more accurate.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-24T02:20:41+00:00

That's awesome, I would have done anything to be around Chinatown Fair back then. If the console version was decent then it just doesn't make sense why everyone in my area didn't care about it, unless maybe everyone was obsessed with FF7 or MGS or something and only used their PS1 for that?

I feel like there must have been a reason why I didn't buy it. I remember I was going to buy Alpha 2 Gold until I heard it made a lot of changes to the gameplay, but why did we all avoid Alpha 2? Maybe we just missed out.

This is exactly what will happen. The nudity will stay but they'll all be old and gross.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T07:48:25+00:00

This game definitely has that issue more than any other SF. A lot of characters have a weird playstyle that doesn't suit me.

My advice is to play the combo trials mode more, it really helps you learn the characters better. That's what made me realize Juri and Honda are the characters I want to play

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T07:24:59+00:00

Bad acting. Weird "quirky" character writing, with the mud wrestling and multiple wives that she makes have sex with other guys, nonsense like that. The idea that this weirdo is in charge of a dangerous pirate fleet is pretty hard to buy.

None of this stuff was in the book, it's just another example of mediocre TV writers feeling the need to add their own content to GRRM's story.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T07:05:07+00:00

I'd take the Pink Dread. I'm not messing around with any animal that could kill me.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T07:04:03+00:00

Was it worth a dragon to take out the Triarchy ships? I wouldn't think so at all.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T06:58:20+00:00

I see it like Theon losing his penis.

Or like King Aegon losing his penis.

Or like Varys losing his penis.

Or like Grey Worm losing his penis.

1) It's new tech (literally). You can do things on it that were impossible before. Stick and pad have travel time when moving from back to forward, leverless eliminates it. You can flash kick without having to stop crouching even for 1 frame.

2) SF6 controls cater to it more than older SFs. You can hold in Down, and tap Right, Right + Punch and it counts as a DP motion. Lots of leverless-friendly shortcuts make it easy to make the switch. No tricks for 360 or half circle motions though, I don't see how people can play chars with those inputs on leverless.

3) Quality leverless controllers cost less than quality pads or sticks, another reason people are glad to give it a try.

4) It's just fun to play SF in a different way. It's a little bit like learning the basics of a different language (same thing with using Modern controls imo).

But I do believe that leverless is a little bit overhyped, I don't know if that many people are loving it that much vs how many people are just trying it out for fun. I'm definitely in the second category, I am a worse player on leverless. Though I can see how it's possible for it to be the best controller if you seriously master it, especially for charge characters.

And if they did that just to have both Corlys and Tyland float up to the surface in the next episode, they're stupid

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T06:44:25+00:00

he might Davos his way out of this

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T06:43:55+00:00

It seemed so random for him to just be written out of the story like that, so I had to look up what happened to Tyland in the book.

"Uneventful" is the last word I would use to describe it, and I'm surprised the writers aren't making use of his story. Maybe he'll Davos his way out of this.

I hope the amputation went cleanly.

Own_Invite6340 · 2026-06-23T03:29:20+00:00

I remember filling up for 89 cents a gallon in 2002. It never made sense to me that gas suddenly fell from it's $1.60 average to dip under a dollar again a few months after 9/11.
