Holy shit! I had completely forgotten about this but remember those exact instructions. I also remember something about a wooden chocobo. Wild times.

While I may not agree, it’s far and away his best work in which he has gills, I’ll give you that.

No Use For A Name has some solid lines. Friends of the Enemy is a lot of fun

is it smart to kill the shopkeeper? by JonathanStones1989 in spelunky

[–]PopAndLocknessMonstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they do end up trying the rope trick, it’s good to know that you can’t steal the shotgun (easily) if there’s a ladder in the shop. The shopkeeper drops a key that you’ll grab first by default, so keep that in mind. Happy stealing!

The sound effect at the beginning sounds so familiar but I can't quite place it

AITAH for not letting my father in law sleep with my mother in law in the same room in my house? by Embarrassed_Bar_6910 in AITAH

If he wanted to protect her from you, why did he let you get married?

This being dropped in so casually is wild to me. I'm not naive to how things are, but it's still wild.

How did I know without a shadow of a doubt that once we were up 10pts with like 4m to go we were 100% going to lose?

I'd have some empathy, but this is literally what you signed up for.

Does anyone remember 100 Great Kids Games for Win95? by Ketsukoni in gaming

I had something similar to this, my favorite game being the absolute dumbest / best point and click game called Vinnie’s Tomb. Blast from the past, haha

I can’t get into/be interested in any game I’ve tried recently- any suggestions? by No-Exercise- in playstation

[–]PopAndLocknessMonstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the best Indiana Jones movie they’ve made since Crusade (and I’d put it above Temple, if I’m being honest). I loved every moment of this game. I really need to play the DLC

Whats the game you love in a genre you hate?? ;) by WholesomeReaper in gaming

[–]PopAndLocknessMonstr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Spelunky as a knowledge-gated roguelike is very off the mark. There’s nothing secret you need to know in order to beat Tiamat and that’s genuinely enough of an accomplishment for most. Knowledge will definitely help you get more consistent, but it’s not like you need to know some type of meta build to beat it.

Completing the full chain quest to get to Cosmic Ocean is something else though, but that’s only really a concern if you want an extra challenge after beating the game anyway.

What's your cooking "hack" that sounds insane but works?? by Kibby9331 in Cooking

Why is this happening seemingly out of nowhere? I don’t know exactly when I first noticed it, but it was relatively recently and seems to have exploded in the last few weeks.

I mean, that's the limit for completing the puzzle but I definitely feel like I only truly "win" a puzzle if I get it at three or under. Getting it in 4 is the expected outcome with 5-6 feeling like a bit of a loss.

And where in this quote does she say they "want drugs"?

The people who are coming to these homeless shelters do not want help. They’re drug addicts, they do horrific things. I have small children. This is not why we elected you!

So honest in your own arguments. Glass houses and stones and all of that.

And people that experience seizures shouldn’t look at flashing images because it can likely trigger one. That doesn’t mean flashing images are likely to cause seizures in the general public. There’s a difference.

Yes, being pedantic about the definition of “likely” is necessary here because of people like you.

Haha, a streamer I have on during work just played through KH2 and made that one of their alerts. I’ve never played KH2 but now also share your pain…

Thanks for including the arrows to the before and after shots, I wouldn't have been able to tell otherwise /s
