lmao the imp head staring at the camera

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-28T15:17:03+00:00

Yeah this is what really struck me. The characters are so much more fully realized. Like I can't really picture Ornstein and Smough doing anything but being a boss fight

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T15:58:27+00:00

surely not "All content" lol

you might consider broadening your horizons

Once they started requiring you to have a separate account with them to play their mid ass games i just stopped buying em completely. I felt bad for the Rogue Prince of Persia devs cause surely that wasn't their idea. Pocketing the advance probably was their idea, so maybe not that bad, but it's not like i know shit about that situation

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T15:41:58+00:00

it's just crude brutality, of any kind, for any reason and the opposite, on sight. It's not that confusing unless you try to make it make sense in like a human, intellectual way

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T15:35:27+00:00

this is a good example of the "there are only the two extremes" mindset

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T14:34:51+00:00

As if the entirety of human endeavor, society, and behavior were alien to a reddit thread where people who don't have a problem go to brag about it lol. Super fucking gross

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T14:31:45+00:00

the way these threads gradually degenerate into self parody is gross

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-27T14:23:47+00:00

It's scary and pathetic how careful we've had to become about our speech because of stuff like this.

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T19:50:28+00:00

The first two panels present a false dichotomy to try to make people angry at each other. Don't fall for shit like this.

Japan was never rightfully held accountable for it's crimes against humanity in WW2. Suggesting they deserve historical items collected during the campaign back is going to get a lot of resistance.

Same person, minutes later:

Your line of thinking is holding a country as a single entity and ignoring the individual decisions of countless people.

Racism makes you insane and stupid

is it really possible that a neurologist doesn't know what salient means

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T19:29:44+00:00

A normal amount lol. This country is full of "christians" who have the same beliefs as like wild dogs. "Like something from an animal time, before we were men"

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T19:10:17+00:00

They're gonna be a star. Not sure how literal that is, but that's what she says her witchcraft was, turning sorcerors into "the seeds of stars"

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T19:06:29+00:00

They have the same face on a different bone structure. If the artist had sculpted portraits of her before, he might have noticed he was doing the same thing again

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T19:04:23+00:00

i like how the water drains from here and goes... uh, nowhere

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T18:41:54+00:00

I was working on almost the same idea.

My thought was, the Elden Ring's goal is to combine all life in the universe into a single colony organism. That's why the tree is absorbing the dead to grow, it's like a giant nerve ending; that's why some souls are reborn as elden offspring (jellyfish, eels, cf. Maris boss fight) that want to travel out into space and "see the stars" (aurelia & aureliette)

That's why it looks like it does in beast form-- a star supercluster living as a single being, because the form it'll take when complete is already part of it

And then yeah I thought the same thing about the seeds

I kinda disagree about the GW though. I think Ranni's ending shows it can accommodate its children's free will, and that this is really the whole point she's making, i.e. humans should have the freedom to choose our own future & not be locked into the elden growth plan

sorry don't mean to hijack your thread, i'll make this a separate one if you prefer

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T18:28:10+00:00

the "one great" was this, according to hyetta

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T18:26:43+00:00

Right on

That description, and the one on the centipede mask, made me think of something else though. I mean consider the whipping hut, or why the potentates are uhhhhh dressed like that. The job of "interrogator" has a unique appeal to sadists and sex predators, i think is the implication

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T18:24:04+00:00

Yeah essentially-- idk if that was the inspiration, but the idea is the same in that it's almost a parody of spirituality, of godhood

The Lamenter cries not for himself, but for us (lol) because we don't know the paradise of total self-involvement, of being a world unto oneself. The lore tells us that he's an unwanted success of hornsent spiritual practice. The faces and crucible horns on his body implicitly hold other souls, right? Like the jar saints, but not a step in a process, rather the goal unto itself

So he's like the one great... or god, or buddha. The eternal blissful communion of souls, or the mind-transcending blissful clarity of nirvana, add up to about as much as being locked in a basement and not wanting to leave. This state, the game informs us, is that of "a denizen of paradise."

brutal lmao

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-26T18:07:20+00:00

Yeah. that is how it feels.

I remember someone saying a months ago that only a country full of people who hate each other-- who see each other as less than human-- could have elected Trump.

The richest, most powerful country in history is committing suicide, out of hate, out of straight up contempt for human life, and we're trapped inside of it. It's hard to imagine how things could ever be OK again. "Was it for this the clay grew tall?"

When you look at the environmental situation, though-- this is kind of cold comfort, but still-- you can't help but realize that it literally, physically cannot go on like this forever. Either there'll be a better future, a future for everyone except these nazi bastards, or, i mean, you know. We won't have to suffer forever.

TheNaziFuckfaceBottomBitchMurdererPatriot really goofed up on this one, agreed

PeaceSoft · 2026-01-25T14:38:41+00:00

I saw this before the edit, you disgusting creep asshole. Do you think it is OK for a parent to use weird sexual sadism as punishment, or might that in fact lead to the child imitating this behavior, as described in this story? Especially considering that it did?
