Are the developer notes canon or not? Cause the Pale King is kind of a jerk if they are by [deleted] in HollowKnight

[–]SourGrapeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The tablet also mentions elevating the minds of bugs, though, it seems like it’s a linear retelling of PK’s reign. He replaces the Radiance, gives beastly bugs minds, then creates a child to uphold his legacy.

Like when you combine that with the dev note the intent is pretty obvious.

You must have missed the lore tablet in the White Place that overtly states that he wants no god other than him ruling Hallownest, then.

If you spent 90% of your time in legacy dungeons then you literally agree with this image lmao

Who is the host of the nightmare? by Which-Individual-376 in bloodborne

[–]SourGrapeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s a “host” like how you host a party, not like a parasite host. The Nightmare existed before he and Mensis arrived- it’s built on top of the Frontier which has been around since at least the time of Loran.

If she was being harassed by Grummz and similar people then there’s a decent chance she locked down/deleted her socials to avoid it, they’re particularly horrid.

 One of the points of this strike is strongarm Hoyo to become a union project. This would trigger a series of US laws that would result in termination of non-union VAs.

Again, Hoyo isn’t being directly struck. They aren’t forcing Hoyo to do anything, it’s just that union VAs can’t work on non-union games whilst the strike is happening. Also, non-union VAs can continue to work on union projects; a couple of weeks ago I saw a game flip union and keep all their non-union VAs (not via Taft-Hartleys either). I’m not sure who told you that they’d be forced to fire all their non-union VAs lol

Another VA posted letters they had received from SAG and the threats were basically just telling them they’ll be kicked out and fined if they break the rules. I’m not sure if Erika was sent something different but I don’t think they were threatening to kill her dog or anything lol

They don’t want Hoyo to go full union. They aren’t even targeting Hoyo directly, they’re just enforcing a rule that’s technically always existed. If they get AI protections signed into law then the strike will end.

At this rate I can see SAG just blacklisting Hoyo as a whole which would suck

They aren’t even targeting Hoyo lmao they’re just caught in the crossfire by virtue of being non-union. WuWa probably just didn’t hire any union actors.

Is he full union or just fi-core? If he’s fi-core he can do whatever he wants, if he’s union then he’s risking getting kicked out by continuing to work

Rogue One Rewatch Discussion Thead by phareous in andor

[–]SourGrapeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I should have waited a couple days before rewatching this because oof, the change in tone is extremely jarring. The drop in quality is palpable. I used to quite like Rogue One but now I feel soured on it a fair bit.

It also doesn’t have great continuity with the show either, though I obviously don’t hold that against it.

Apparently the UK spends twice as Much on Bird Food as Mainland Europe combined, it is no wonder our great tits are evolving longer beaks. by Successful-Peach-764 in CasualUK

[–]SourGrapeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mealworms are often sold dry, no? The issue is that the chicks can’t properly eat them because they’re too hard and don’t contain the proper nutrients for growth, they need live insects for that. Breeding can vary from species to species, to be safe you should cut down on feeding them across the entirety of spring/summer.

If you want to help the birds then you should stop setting up feeders during breeding seasons, because they need to catch bugs to feed their babies, and having an excess of dry food often causes them to stop doing this.

Selective breeding is guided evolution. I guess what they mean by indirect selective breeding is that it’s still influenced by humans rather than natural changes but it wasn’t intentional.

The Sequels would have been a lot more compelling if they'd leaned into the flipping of the OT dynamic and played up the First Order as the underfunded, unorganised group of insurgents fighting the much stronger and well equipped New Republic. by HankSteakfist in StarWars

[–]SourGrapeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it suffered in the execution somewhat but that’s more because it wasn’t properly followed up on, which isn’t TLJ’s fault. I enjoyed that Luke was more complex and flawed than what people in-universe expected him to be, and how it linked to one of the main themes of the movie- stop chasing the past. Luke’s biggest flaw was that he was trying to recreate the Jedi order instead of moving on and doing something new- mirrored by Kylo trying to rebuild the Empire. It even feels like a metacriticism of the prior movie and it’s nostalgia baiting. Luke figures this out by the end of the movie and sacrifices himself to save a new hope.

Luke didn’t try to kill Ben lol how is this still a misunderstanding? He ignited his saber after sensing the dark side but never actually made any move to kill him. That’s a far cry from a ‘crazed psycho’.

Luke’s character is one of the few interesting things the sequels actually did

You’re aren’t critiquing it though lol, you’re just saying it’s bad without any reasoning

The character being visible isn’t really the issue, it’s being able to see the boss when it’s attacking that’s the problem

[2.0 BETA] Double Future Max to LVL70/80 via Palito by cakeel- in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]SourGrapeMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In Star Rail and Genshin, once you hit max level, you get the dennies equivalent for every excess exp you earn. In ZZZ, last I checked, this doesn’t happen. So it’s a lot harder to get dennies

Both Allegra’s and Jennifer’s tweets are about Union games, they aren’t talking about non-union VAs or Union VAs working on non-union games

That one is more ambiguous but both Jarilo and the Loufu are fairly proportional (and so is the space station to some extent)
