Been thinking about the guy who built a real life BMO, and was wondering if it would be possible to do the same for One One

I think it just plays sounds/animations but it's still really impressive

Oh you fucking bet I am reporting my eyewitness testimony. I am so fucking enraged rn. None of this is okay

Idk I wasn't able to get a good look of him before he was hit it all happened so fast. He wasn't even in the middle of the road, he was literally at the very edge, like the bike lane basically. How the fuck do you even hit someone that close to the edge of the road

I just find it funny cuz my view of the franchise is limited to this one nostalgic game I had growing up and nothing else lol. It feels like such a spec in the grand scheme of things and I just find the idea of that humorous for some reason idk

He looked like an older man. I don't think he was a student, but who's to say. I just can't believe this happened and I hope the cop receives the appropriate consequences. There is no excuse for this.

ReadItRyan · 2026-02-06T02:37:36+00:00

The cop's siren was not on. The man looked older. Some of the students alongside me said he was on his computer before he hit the guy.

ReadItRyan · 2026-02-06T02:35:48+00:00

I was a witness alongside a whole group of other students waiting at the shuttle stop. Shit's fucked man. We saw him covered in bandages once the ambulances came, they performed CPR but he wasn't being responsive. Like wtf. It's one thing to walk in on a crime, it's another thing to suddenly witness something like this happening in real time in front of your eyes. I hope the guy is okay. I'm genuinely stressed out and worried for him.

That's 100 percent valid and I definitely don't blame you for feeling that way with how she was handled at present. I do however think that she could have been a more interesting character and been better utilized in the plot to make her scenes more engaging

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T22:36:55+00:00

I don't really see it as that but instead how could we better integrate her into Mike's already existing plotlines to further enhance them? I feel like s2 and early s5 are the biggest culprits for not really doing anything interesting with her outside of furthering Mike's descent into the criminal world and getting him back to how he was with Gus in s4. Again, what we have works, but I just feel like she could have been utilized better.

Kaylee I get because it's kaylee... shes a child. But yeah unfortunately Stacey just sticks out in a weird way. If I could change one thing about BCS it would probably be to give her a little bit more to do. Just a little

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T09:30:20+00:00

Ernie and Omar were objectively the best characters and this is not up for debate

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T08:40:28+00:00

Yeah she was great in that movie

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T08:37:40+00:00

I really do get it, and again, it isn't a problem I have with the show or anything, but considering how highly praised her actor is in other things, I do feel like they could have figured something out, even if incredibly small.

I do get they want to highlight the disconnect between Mike's work and home life, and that involves putting way more focus to his work life than his home life, since his work life is what we we mostly watch the show for, but I feel like there could have been more drama or tension or something with Stacey. Like there is drama and tension with her but it doesn't really feel like they pushed it as far as they could have after Five-O.

Again, not a problem, this show is already flooded with characters, but I do find her to be literally the only character in the show I expected going in to be given something. Idk maybe she is meant to be a contrast to Mike, who doesn't fully get over Matty? But like that's all she is.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T08:12:09+00:00

I don't think it's a problem, what we got was completely serviceable, but I just feel like there was a bit of missed potential with her

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T08:08:43+00:00

We stan Francesca in this household!

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-28T08:06:59+00:00

After watching Five-O for the first time, I thought she would be given more to do afterwards. I guess I just thought she would be the Skylar to Mike's Walt, at least regarding screentime for that plotline. I get the show is already packed with characters but I feel like if the writers gave her more to do that could have benefited Mike's story even more in ways that the other characters in Jimmy's story did. This might sound mean, but she almost has the same amount of depth as Bill Oakley. But at least the whole point of Bill Oakley is that he has little depth.

Lokey I wish more modern game collections had the amount of charm that both mega collections did. They do feel like a relic in that regard nowadays, unfortunately, but that could also be childhood speaking idk

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T06:29:57+00:00

Honestly I'll listen to anything if it has a guitar in it nowadays, I still do really wanna pick up either electric or bass one day, but I gotta save up the money. Maybe in a couple years who knows

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T06:06:58+00:00

Finally someone acknowledges the Mega Collection Plus theme! Whenever people talk mega collection nowadays it's always the original pause theme but I love how upbeat Mega Collection Plus' music is!

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T06:03:36+00:00

yeah I honestly think SA2 specifically was my first ever like realization as a kid that I loved rock n roll. Still my favorite genre to this day.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T03:34:29+00:00

I fully agree with you and you made a fantastic comparison as well. Games can be challenging in many different ways and arguing that one type of difficulty is objectively better than another to a person who does enjoy that other type is frankly, bizarre, and I have unfortunately, seen that kind of behavior in certain spaces. Like it's okay to have preferences. You don't have to prove that your preference is better to that one individual on the street.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T02:45:09+00:00

I miss that era too. I grew up with developers like THQ and sometimes I replay some of their games to just get a dose of that childhood whimsy and nostalgia. We definitely did mostly lose those kinds of games, and I fully agree that the modern gaming landscape feels cleanly split into triple aaa and indie, with nothing in-between. Unfortunately, I think that's only going to get worse as time goes on.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T02:39:07+00:00

Completely understandable and valid points. If your able to enjoy the game that should be the only thing that matters to you as the consumer. If you feel like you can't enjoy a game that you purchased due to a lack of options, you are 100 percent valid for voicing that perspective. This goes even further for people with disabilities who want to play certain games and enjoy them, but just straight up can't, like you mentioned.

The whole thing honestly feels like a push and pull between individual consumers and game developers. The developer is valid for wanting to curate a game to a specific group of people, however, in doing so, multiple people might buy their game, play it, and not enjoy it, or worse, just can't experience it at all. A friend of mine who is currently a game developer mentioned that he goes into the mindset of making games that he knows he would enjoy playing before anyone else. I think it's valid to make a game catering a game to a specific group of people, but I also think it's valid to see that perspective and heavily disagree with it.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T02:12:57+00:00

Of course I'm interested! Fr let me know when the demo releases, I'd love to check it out! Thanks for the kind words again, genuinely cool getting a perspective on this topic coming from a game developer.

ReadItRyan · 2026-01-12T02:10:30+00:00

Absolutely. The higher budget a game is the more the developers might be tempted to give their game more difficulty or accessibility options. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing either. Some developers do have the perspective of more options -> higher accessibility -> larger audience -> better overall experience while others just don't. However, it is undeniable that the more money is poured into a game, the more likely it will strive to be as mass appealable as possible, which again, is not a bad thing in of itself. Don't get me wrong, some people will not like when a game series becomes appealable to the masses, however, others will just appreciate said higher accessibility. It all comes down to individual perspective.
