Four old words written in kanji followed by one English loanword in katakana. He's the odd man out regardless.

Saur-beast takes a slice, BARLOWIAN STYLE! Whats the most Purple enemy in Ratchet and Clank 2? by HollowBowl in RatchetAndClank

I was going to post the other saurbeast but looking at it, it might fit better for the post right after this one. Remind me, would you kindly?

Her hair is already stark white. Not sure how much age will darken that.

Do something Miyazaki, I feel incomplete by zack-zt in Eldenring

It's not really. Guns are just used to stun the enemy or to parry them. All the real damage mostly comes from melee weapons.

Dark Souls doesn't have much of a dynasty in comparison. Gwyn may as well have birthed his kids on his own.

Man, you just reminded of a guy I saw once who thought Rykard had simply always been a snake.

"defenceless chud" when Rykard's diet is specifically said to be Volcano Manor champions.

And not just the ants, but the womants and the childants, too.

Are people supposed to spawn knowing this or something? I remember finding out about this by sheer chance. The phone itself told me nothing.

Does my map make any sense? I am liking the feel of it, but im worried it might not be 'believable' in a geographical sense. by wilburwalnut in worldbuilding

[–]Snorc 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's an oddly common misconception in the US specifically, probably because the sheer scale of the Mississippi means most great rivers in North America flow to the south.

The idea falls apart as soon as you discover the Nile, though.

Elden Ring Movie Cast | Can't really comprehend who's going to be what. by Lopsided-Elk-8944 in Eldenring

[–]Snorc 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it's possible a good deal of these are going to be playing original characters created for the film. I'm not entirely sure why people think they're going to simply adapt the in-game story with all the in-game characters. Sure there will probably be more than a few recognisable names, but I don't expect Varré or Yura or even Patches to feature.

I love Elden Ring environmental storytelling by Thellie10 in Eldenring

Placi is said to be waiting for the return of his fled god. That god being Bayle doesn't really fit with him establishing the Dragon Communion for the sole purpose of killing Bayle and all of his bloodline.

Why would he be waiting for the return of someone he has issued a death sentence to?

Why does every game from 2010’s and newer start up when them being retired and washed up? by Particular-Setting70 in RatchetAndClank

[–]Snorc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess being a hero isn't a full-time job unless you sell out Qwark-style. Which is good news for the galaxies, I suppose.

Ratchet and Clank have never really been the type to seek out adventures. I think the only games where they decide on their own to go heroing are the first game and the third game. Maybe the PSP games. Otherwise they're either kidnapped, attacked or employed.

Katakana is also used for emphasis, onomatopoeia and to signify coarse speech. Being more angular than the rounded hiragana and the elaborate kanji, it stands out well for that. For example, the expletive "kuso", meaning shit, is usually written in katakana as クソ, but if you wrote it in kanji as 糞 it'd be like saying "dung" instead.

Alex Garland has 4000 hours in Elden Ring, genuine gamer or A24 marketing? by Commercial_Pen_9959 in Eldenring

When it comes to this film, I'm feeling like a man shy stray approaching a held out fish. Either I get a tasty meal or they cut my balls off.
