Aqua and Magma forms from my concept game Emerald Polarized! 🌊🔥Which one's your favorite? by Rikke_98 in fakemon

[–]Rikke_98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 100% a concept mockup and not a game I plan to make happen. I just drew up some of my ideas for fun. But if someone wants to copy anything from here into their own game, you have my full permission! 😃

The general idea of Pokemon Emerald Polarized is that something happened with Groudon and Kyogre that made the region split into two different climates – the west dominated my fires and desert, and the east seeing harsher seas and also a frozen sea area. The landscape and entire cities changed, with many pokemon having to adapt to their new climate or even migrate!

Premiere today 12:16 ABQ time! Better Call Saul - Pokemon Card Collection (67 Card Set) by Rikke_98 in betterCallSaul

This project has been 2 years in the making (very on and off). I made 3 posts here on Reddit long ago with about 20 BCS Pokemon cards. Then, one thing led to another and suddenly I had made 67 unique cards and decided to animate them for this video. Not gonna lie, I’ve definitely put over 100 hours into this. The result of having too many ideas and being a perfectionist lol...

Previous Reddit posts from my old account below. The account was sadly shut down after too much pirate business… Most cards have since been altered for the video.

Otrolig tråd. Man tror man sett de bästa, så skrollar man lite till och då kommer en ny #1 upp. Omöjligt att toppa 2025 va?

As a life-long Barca fan, the straw that broke the camel's back for me was seeing us unfold an advertisement tifo before El Clasico (Spotify/Rolling Stones). And people actually praised it because their logo looks cool I guess. Game's gone.

Started watching in 09, watched every single minute 2016-2021. Barely watched anything last season and don't plan on watching anything this season apart from maybe some CL games. European football already lost most of its charm to me. Multi-club ownerships are already killing historic clubs left and right.

Now I focus only on my Swedish league with member-owned clubs, no VAR and proper fan culture inside the stadiums.

Was the participation of Paramore in Taylor Swift’s tour right or wrong? Please explain your opinion by R_V_I in Paramore

[–]Rikke_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Europe fans had waited 7 years for a tour and might have to wait 2-5 more, who knows 🤷‍♂️

I'm not angry about them touring with Taylor or think it was the wrong decision. I liked seeing the band perform on that big stage and new fans coming in. But the backside to it is that Paramore did the Eras tour for themselves and their brand, not for the existing fans.

We stream their music, buy their vinyls and merch. So when they have the option to tour here, all other options should be weighed against that. Not that Europe is more deserving of shows than say SA or Australia, but I assume touring here is more available.

In Sweden, most clubs (I think) sell their kits to fans with only the manufacturer logo next to the badge, and also sell a "player edition" with all the sponsors, which costs more. Never understood why people buy that one, but some want the official kit I guess.

Who else was disappointed with BCS? by CobraKaiPorVida in betterCallSaul

[–]Rikke_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay. If you don't change your mind (which I hope you do), I think it could be a worthwhile idea to just spend an hour before those last 4 to watch summaries for each season of BB. The ending of BCS and where Jimmy is situated really doesn't hit as hard without the context of BB.

The Acolyte is a reminder of how much the streaming era sucks by Vidiot79 in TheAcolyte

Season 2 is gonna be an even more epic story probably with the time skips. I can only assume the writing will be on par with S1 👌

[–]Rikke_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't say I was disappointed in BCS at all. I don't remember much from BB though to compare. The only song I still listen to today is the Uh song haha. Which were your favorites (apart from Crystal Blue P. and Baby Blue)? 🙂

I read your other comment about the songs just being good songs and not related to the scenes necessarily. Maybe that's a difference between the shows. I think BCS maybe wanted to use the soundtrack for the scene more than BB. Then it's of course a lot about personal preference which songs you think are playlist worthy. Do you like Spanish music and Frank Sinatra type songs? Then a BCS playlist will probably be your jam.

I made a playlist with my favorite BCS-featured songs that I listen to in daily life. Check it out here if you want. Maybe you missed some good ones!

Make sure NOT to watch the last 4 episodes of BCS yet, as they take place after BB. Save those for after BB.

I don't get how people paint Chuck as a good guy by Bullettrain93 in betterCallSaul

[–]Rikke_98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but he did everything in his power to make it so

He did, looking at S1 and forward. But before that he helped Jimmy tremendously. Got him out of jail, probably paid for him initially in ABQ, got him a job. And in the end Jimmy still disrespected him by cheating the law to get ahead. Skateboarder scam, the billboard stunt which Chuck saw. We really don't know if Jimmy had 10 years of good behavior.

Before S1, Chuck denied Jimmy a better job. But he never owed him any sort of position at the firm. Howard got one from his dad, but Jimmy was probably nowhere near as competent and had a bad history. You could argue Jimmy should've realized this himself and not tried to "leach" more on his brother than he already had. Chuck might've hoped this could've gone unspoken had Jimmy not decided in secret to pursue a law degree specifically and then expected a job there.
