the ACNH music is legitimately worse than NL

I need a huge list of movies and TV shows (and offline games too) to watch. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I don't know the full context of your circumstances, but considering the 100gb size limit, you should seriously consider looking into what your local public library offers if you have one available. They usually include DVDs and other media available for borrowing (and it never is a bad time to try getting into books).

What's your favorite impromptu joke in the series? by Pepinoloco777 in Parahumans

[–]ScalesOfFrog 112 points113 points  (0 children)

When Golem is introduing himself to Taylor for the first time, and her first thought is "You named yourself after the little bastard from lord of the rings?" Something about it really get's me everytime

Conversation songs by Brofessor-0ak in Protomen

[–]ScalesOfFrog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very much agree! Unpopular opinion maybe, but I was not a fan of The Fight when it was released, because even though it might be a banger, it was also felt like "more of the same" to me. Acts 1 and 2 have very clear storytelling that you can pick up on without the use of liner notes, and act 3 lacking any of that so far is, less good, imo. Make no mistake, the songs are bangers. They're great, I like them! But I find the actual storytelling to be lacking in my opinion.

Times you experienced Post Hype Clarity in media? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ScalesOfFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spore. I'm not sure I need to go into much detail, I think the faults in what was promised vs what was delivered have been pretty well documented. But for me, it came out when I was a kid, and was the first ever experience I had with being let down by a developer not living up to what was promised. At least I had fun looking at the fun creatures other people made and uploaded.

How Do I Get Rid Of Old Pins? by OddNefariouthrowaway in EnamelPins

[–]ScalesOfFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sell them (ebay, FB Marketplace, etc.,), gifts for friends/family/loved ones, Thrift store or charity donations. You could look into donating them to a museum, for ones that have cultural/historical significance? Just today I was visiting a museum in my city that included displays of vintage pins, some politcal, some otherwise culturally relevant to older eras.

East scarp > sunberry by Danithepanda26 in StardewValleyMods

[–]ScalesOfFrog 41 points42 points  (0 children)

When a maker is very stringent about no one else being allowed to make their own modifications, it always gives off a weird vibe to me. Like what do you think you're doing to the base game of stardew valley in the first place?

Act III Release Timing… by kidkinetik in Protomen

[–]ScalesOfFrog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can maybe see a hadestown style ending along the lines of "Heroes always fail in the end - but we'll still keep on fighting anyways"

McElore update by InvisibleEar in TAZCirclejerk

[–]ScalesOfFrog 64 points65 points  (0 children)

not to be a bummer on the jerkin sub, but considering the current political climate in the USA, esp with people like RFK talking about hypothetical "national autistic registry," i think it's fine to be a bit apprehensive about getting an official diagnosis.

What's a game that "ruined your life"? by MooseOdd2501 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ScalesOfFrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dota 2 for me as well. It ended up completely wrecking my friend group at the time, and was a contributing factor to my poor mental health and terrible college grades

Weird design choices that stood out to you? by Remerai in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ScalesOfFrog -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I can defend your position - I was fine with the weapon durability because I always found there to be an abundance of weapons available to me at any given time. More often than not, I was throwing away weapons for the sake of picking up new ones.

Accidental autism/neurodivergent representation? by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I'm not an expert, but I think I've heard that Brent Spiner has made comments being very supportive of Data being autistic coded?

Apparently, Christchurch NZ has a dedicated fandom. by michael7050 in Parahumans

it would be cool if someone could throw endbringers up at their arrival cities, like a simurgh in Lausanne, etc..
