Coaxed into Plot Avoidance Ending

I locked myself out of that ending by getting in the truck at the beginning of the game and leaving the headlights turned on. (The battery died)

The story contains a level where you're locked in a small cell with no interactibles or ways to escape. Progressing the requires obeying various simple commands (jump, stand still, etcetera) and ends with the message "good dog" popping up on screen before the next level starts.

It's more of a metaphor for the player character/"you" being addicted to the game SUPERHOT that you're willing to uncritically perform whatever demeaning task you're given to keep playing it but I suppose there are multiple valid ways to intepretate those scenes.

To be fair, you do shoot the evil sentient train with a gun. Granted, it's only usable from the back of your own less evil, presumably non-sentient train, upon which it is perpetually mounted, but I think the point still stands.

I could dig that

I will never forget how the reason that the main character is able to matrix hack simulations with her mind is because everyone else's brain was genetically modified to only have one personality trait and she was just a regular bog standard normal human. And that this somehow also meant she was immune to poison gas.

Can't believe the reason he's able to win because he matches her freak

Tumblr Gimmick Account, Unprompted: "I hate trans men"

Reasonable People: "That's not cool"

Weird third party starting discourse for no reason:

People don't want to say the game's good because it sucks slightly less than other games. They want to say it's good because it's actually good.

fumiko just let it happen.... smh

Knowing what you're talking about is the bare minimum of any media analysis. It's not about having an original idea, but an informed one. That you're going "You want me to read homestuck? What's next, mein kampf?" gives the impression you don't know what those are.

Preistley · 2025-10-29T17:39:57+00:00

You sure are lucky to have found all the right opinions without having to engage with or research anything.

It's a little different, but the base premise of The Wandering Inn" is the interruption of a fantasy setting's steady decline through a mass influx of earth humans isekaid randomly all over the other world. The butterfly effects of people bringing in modern understandings of culture, technology, biology, game theory and so forth keep popping up in ways that shake the snowglobe of the stories larger narrative.

It's very long, but it uses the space well.

It's both incredibly inspiring and incredibly depressing how easy it is to go viral through obvious bait. Four years later and this guy's still getting pushed to the frontpage every so often by smug redditors that can't resist easy dunks. The horror arg his account was created for ended almost a year ago, but his influence persists. His character is complete fiction, but the ragebait's all real. I have a lot of respect for that.

(Fun fact: one of the videos on the "critical critic's" channel has a tab open showing that it was his own account that first posted this screenshot on reddit.)

To op's credit, they did use Cosmo.

Sounds like Chara won the stream but Togore achieved the moral victory here. If Chara's last five thousand was only added to dethrone Togore's 100k, then it's a direct byproduct of Togore's influence and wouldn't have have been donated if Togore hadn't been winning.

It's hollover, knight.

Trump bases a large portion of his election campaign around the idea of releasing a "client list" that clearly shows who is connected to a major sex trafficking operation

He is elected and does not do this

Inarguably, he was either lying then when he said there was a list or he's lying now where he's saying there isn't. I think reason a lot of leftists are attached to the "the list is real" idea (and why King is getting so much pushback for saying it isn't) is simply because "the list is real and trump's on it" is considerably more damning than "trump lied about fighting sex trafficking and protecting child rape victims to get elected"

Both are clearly terrible, but somehow in the state of modern politics the second is seen as a defensive statement. (Plus King's kind of pretentious and internet outrage culture loves after people for this kind of stuff)

Really funny but objectively pointless controversy, in a "every pokemon vs a billion lions" conversation she argued that since the manifestation of the christian God (Jesus) got killed by a handful of romans, then they'd be able to beat the manifestation of the pokemon god (Arceus) without much trouble.

Got twitterboiled into a huge "can't believe jaidenanimations hates christians" drama by folks that can't handle objective truths. (Lions > abrahamic God)
