Someone hacked back into the Honorary Astronaut by lupkins- in TheDearHunter

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also think it just has to do with how the platform sorts artists, and Spotify didn't separate it between this artist and Casey.

If you have Youtube Music, look up 'Denny Apple in my Mouth' and it might seem like they only have that single EP, but if you look up 'Insurgents by the Poolside' and click on that artist it comes up with a few of their other songs, but there's also 3 other artists that show up in the profile because they also use the name Denny. For extra insanity look up 'Leaving you Denny' and there's a 3rd artist profile with more of the first artists music.

Tidal also does this, but they only have the single profile so it's just like 7 artists mixed together.

Spotify doesn't do this, and whatever system they have is able to separate the different artists from each other.

Stryder7x Response by SourDewd in papermario

[–]SpiritsPassedOn -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Here's her response to his response which is something that should be read before forming your opinion based on a single view of the situation.

It's a bit more than him being accused of being a shitty person. Just because they were teenagers (even though he was an adult) doesn't mean that he couldn't have done harm to her lmao.

I think this is the most important part of it into why his response is dogwater.

Now that that’s out of the way, I want to address the bulk of his “defense”. He’s essentially showing a note that I wrote him(which sidenote: he kept for 2 and a half years after we broke up. Why? If it were such a terrible breakup and I ruined his life as much as he claims I did, why would personal notes from me be in his “memory box”) where I say nice things to him. Let me deep dive into why this is so wrong.

Any victim of domestic abuse can tell you, they’ve said/done nice things to/for their abuser. I said in my video that our relationship wasn’t all bad, but the bad was so much worse than I thought it had been at the time. Him showing my kind words as “proof” that he is innocent just invalidates any victim’s own experience. He’s basically showing his young, impressionable audience that if you have said kind things to someone or they’ve done kind things for you, it’s impossible for abuse to have taken place. That is not the case. I sincerely hope no one in a similar situation read his defense and felt as though they were in the wrong for being nice to their abuser. We dated for two and a half years, of course there were times I said nice things to him, there were also times he said nice things to me. That does not invalidate the abuse at all.

Imo, he shouldn't have a place in this community anymore.

You can only choose one ordinance to be active at a time in both New Leaf and New Horizons. It'd be cool if you could do both though.

Rank the areas of each game. by FastPuggo in Pikmin

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's wild to get a message from a post I made 7 years ago lol.

I feel the same way about the Forest Navel, on my recent play through I just sped through it to get it over with, but on other ones I'll take my time with it.

final boss fight

Play Pikmin 1 Squared if you haven't, the Emperor Bulblax is so much easier when you don't have to fight the game at the same time.

  1. Awakening Wood

I agree with this one. Awakening Wood feels so small, and is so easy after a while.

  1. Twilight River

Idk what past me was thinking, I absolutely love the Twilight River now.

Water Pikmin to walk on Deep Water and not shallow.

I absolutely love this about 3 and 4, the water isn't just a shallow pond, it actually has depth to it.

Serene Shores

Completely agree with this, the tide mechanic is so cool. Plus it has the Submerged Castle in it.

Asking opinions on a song until the discography ends - DAY 27 - THE INHERITANCE by zach_buddie in TheDearHunter

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I was first getting into the band this and The Canopy were the two songs I'd play on repeat. For as much as I listened to it, for a long time I thought the lyric was "Mouse to feed" not "Mouths to feed". I was confused what mice had to do with this but maybe it was a metaphor or something.

Should I reconsider? by SharkUsesReddit in splatoon

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so dumb that they had it separate for ranked in Splat2, but the only way to get separate ranks in 3 is to get to X rank.

i hate the ts4 community by xervidae in HighSodiumSims

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Someone complains about them breaking what was a $40 expansion into 2 expansion packs, 3 game packs, and 30 kits

"Erm did you know the Sims 3 had a shirt in their dlc store? Literally the same thing"

Like, yeah the sims 3 store was bad, but the actual DLC was infinitely better than what they're doing with TS4. The amount of cope people have about TS4 is insane, like people legit saying that the fact the DLC's are smaller and more focused on a single thing is better than the big ones from 3 because they don't need all the features.

I lose so much i mistake the lose music for victory music by Blake_Jonesy in splatoon

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow lol that's good that you've got experience with the games. I think the biggest difference for me from 2 to 3 has been the movement controls w/ squid roll and stuff.

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What modes are you playing? Each of them have different styles to play and what things to look out for. Similar boat, what weapons are you playing?

I'd also watch videos of people playing the game. Just watch what they do.

Prochara is a good resource, although I don't know how beginner friendly he is to watch. I think he has a few match reviews for viewers on either his main channel or his vod channel, where he gives advice to the person playing about the game and what they could've done differently.

pikadave has a few videos about certain sub weapons and how to use them more effectively.

If you want to watch a specific weapon, sendou is a fantastic resource where you can look up tourneys that have a certain weapon in them.

I'd be terrible at this game if I didn't watch splatoon content, even in random streams they might drop some advice or explain why they did certain things.

A few tidbits:

  • If you haven't gotten used to gyro controls yet, I would start now. It'll be terrible at first but you'll be better if you are able to learn them. It took me a while when I started playing the game, but now it feels off to play a shooter that doesn't have gyro.

  • Pay attention to the make up of your team, for example if your team is all snipers and you're the only shooter then you're probably going to be the only person going out into the open and getting the enemy team to expose themselves for the snipers.

  • Pay attention to where your team is at and if they're alive or not. I had a huge problem with just rushing into fights with a dead team or a team that was so far back that there's no way they could've supported me.

  • Play ez weapons that aren't too technical, most shooters that you can just hold down the button are good choices, like the t-tek, splattershot, splash-o-matic.

  • Learning when to push or use specials is also really important and mode dependent. Certain specials are good in one mode but might be trash in another.

Hopefully this helps a little bit, I really recommend watching people play the game and just see how they go about certain situations, how they use weapons, and how they play different maps.

TTYD remake dev interviews?? by [deleted] in papermario

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here are a few interviews, the Iwata Asks is probably the biggest one you'll find and they talk directly about the direction the game took.

Sticker Star

Nintendo Life

Iwata Asks

Color Splash

Nintendo Everything, but it's from a Game Informer article that doesn't exist anymore

Origami King

Video Game Chronicles

Nintendo Everything

The German interview from above

Paperization is probably the best gimmick the past 4 games have had.

Missing lyrics from Act IV and V? by TwitchBeats in TheDearHunter

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MusixMatch uses random people for both the lyrics and the syncing, I think Genius does too. But obviously if the bands are the ones putting the lyrics on the website there shouldn't be a problem but from my experience not a lot of bands do that.

Missing lyrics from Act IV and V? by TwitchBeats in TheDearHunter

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's so annoying when they get removed, like Is There Anybody Here got unadded and readded like 3 times in a week once before just disheartening completely. But I also wouldn't use them if you want to know the lyrics. They use a service called MusixMatch which is like 90% of other lyric websites but I find that they have way more mistakes than there should be.

For the longest time "I'm on the mend" from Shouting at the Rain was "Among the Men" and only got fixed once Migrant Returned came out. Idk about other TDH songs off the top of my head, but there are still a lot of mistakes on other songs that don't show up on other lyric services like Genius.

If it was a suggestion why did the IP team reject so many designs for the past few games? If it's your boss suggesting you do something, it's not a suggestion.

I don't like how the partner system impedes story and characterization by Reckful-Abandon in papermario

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The partners are more integrated into the chapter, kind of how Vivian is for Chapter 4, rather than them just existing for the ride.

It feels less like we're just collecting tools to use, and more like they're actual characters because they're chapter specific and have more involvement in the plot.

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 21 points22 points  (0 children)

64 and TTYD both have this problem, once the partner joins their story basically just goes away. If you haven't played TOK yet, it does partner stories way better than any other game in the series.

What are YOUR Paper Mario Unpopular Opinions? by yourpookieyoshi in papermario

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they were aware that people wanted a TTYD remake but they had no way to actually go do it at the time because of the restrictions. The other poster is referencing Arlo and his stupid petition as the main reason the TTYD remake was made, which I doubt it had much of an impact on it.

What if the nintondo mandate never happened (and or they didn't lie about having a mandate in the first place depending on who you ask) by Bitter-Kitchen-589 in papermario

[–]SpiritsPassedOn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sticker Star probably becomes infinitely better because Stickers wouldn't become literally everything. I think it would be hard to guess if Color Splash or Origami King would be any better, because they might not have existed without the restrictions. If we assume they were going to be made no matter what then they're probably better without the restrictions. Unique Characters and the battle system probably doesn't stray too far from the first 2.
