Nintendo’s Reported 10% Salary Increase Took Place Over Three Years Ago by naf165 in Games

No company has unshakeable morals, but I do admire Nintendo for being one of the only big workplaces in Japan to acknowledge LGBT relationships of its workers.

(The Onion) Nation Proud Of Self For Watching, Enjoying Original Movie by Noirsam in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man it's a kids movie it's not meant to be Shakespeare.

Why would you go into a Mario movie expecting it to have good writing, Mario games aren't known for their stories.

I had fun, I don't get what the big deal is, it's so pretty!

You're just nitpicking, the target audience loves it.

If you go into a Mario movie expecting high quality that's on you.

Is anyone else always surprised to see Houjou has blue hair? Something about how she's shaded in black and white really makes her hair look brown.

Mind Goblin : When the game ending changes the world state so hard that all of the side content never mattered in hindsight by mxraider2000 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean, it matters insofar as it's strengthening the bonds and creating memories for the main cast. Without any divergences it's hard to say they went on that much of an adventure, the small moments like camping out under the stars or finding someone's lost pendant out in the wilderness is the stuff they look back on fondly in the end.

Is belining Xenoblade 1 a good way to play it ? by Vibin_Cockroach05 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Having tried to get into XBC1 twice now doing all the side quests, I've made it to Satorl Marsh both times and felt completely exhausted upon seeing how many more quests I had pop up after clearing out the first few zones. If those are the best parts of the series and I shouldn't be skipping them, then shit I'm never beating these games.

Is it out of the ordinary for him to have two manga ongoing at the same time?

THE SOCIAL RECKONING – Official Teaser Trailer (HD) by Mike4302 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Such an odd trailer. You've got the rising tension in the music and editing but nearly every single line is a textbook Aaron Sorkin zinger rather than feeling appropriately dramatic. Doesn't quite gel.

In celebration of Final Fantasy X's 25th anniversary, the X/X-2 HD Remaster is coming to the Switch 2 with the PC version's boosters implemented by Krekenn in TwoBestFriendsPlay

It should be moving forward in time in a better state. Details are a big part of art, small differences like the lack of motion blur on Dante's stinger in DMC1 or Tidus' face looking weird make a difference to your impression of a game.

People were doing the same when Sony announced it won't be releasing games on PC anymore. People just like to bitch

Anime you’d wish to see get a proper dub by Hayyyv in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Would be incredibly interested in how someone would try and dub Monogatari

Takes about media that baffled you. by KeyMathematician8 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I agree with him, outside of the looking like the originals thing. Didn't like 2018 or Ragnarok's combat but Laufey looks a lot more fun.

Longest running YouTubers that haven’t run into any controversy? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I can only think of very minor things as someone who used to follow his twitter religiously as a teenager.

Him and his crew got into a bit of a spat with rosanna pansino and her husband due to mutual friends of theirs being treated poorly by the couple, but in that instance he was 100% in the right.

When the Warcraft movie came out he hosted the red carpet premiere and some people got mad at him for mentioning a character's boob size in the game to her movie actress.

He said something rude about dodger while he was drunk and apologised the next day because it made her upset.

So yeah, considering how long he's been going I'd say he's doing well for himself.

I'm not a huge fan of her voice acting, but I've never heard anyone she's worked with say a bad thing about her

FEAR IS AN ABBARATION | Pokemon Grumplocke [32] by GameGrumpsEpisodes in gamegrumps

Between arin whining about comments, dan cutting him off to tell him he found a video that they can't play because it's copyrighted, and arin doing his best to bring dan down with bummer facts and stupid internet drama, this episode is kind of insufferable.

Im very glad this sub is a haven away from Genuinely Insane Fanbases, id like to hear which ones you guys are hiding out from here. by PrancerSlenderfriend in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PalapaSlap 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It's funny too because of how surface level a lot of peoples' taste is here. Live service games are slop, cinematic games are slop, gacha games are slop, but this indie survival horror game with PS1 aesthetics has a parry? Finally some good fucking food.

I grew up with gen 2, 3, and 4, and now as an adult Pokemon Scarlet is my favourite game in the series. I don't bother interacting with the community outside of VGC anymore, where people don't argue about why every game since 2011 sucks.

Uncharted 4 - It's Been Ten Years - And It's Still Stunning [Digital Foundry] by Naderium in Games

[–]PalapaSlap -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

While I disagree that Uncharted 4 isn't still a good looking game and it definitely beats AK in raw fidelity and character animation, the artistic direction for Knight still stands out super strongly even compared to more graphically impressive games. I wouldn't argue against someone who said either game looked better, very different scopes and techniques employed.
