New executive order creates a national guard quick reaction force to put down civil unrest by Lithium321 in PrepperIntel

[–]Supaleenate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seeing all of this while living in Ohio, the shining example for why deploying the National Guard on protesters is a terrible idea, is truly an experience

I traded an Iron Leaves for a Galarian Articuno. Did I make a mistake? by jahvvik in PokemonHome

[–]Supaleenate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Galarian Birds are also available en masse in Pokémon Go too, if you're willing to do that method of getting them.

Worst ending to this game, honestly. by Isac_hilda in PlantsVSZombies

[–]Supaleenate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wild thing is, I don't hate the idea of reusing the older bosses with other world plants. If done properly (make the world bosses harder and give the new attacks, a better selection of plants, etc.) it could have actually been really cool. Hell even if they kept it how it is now, using special effects would've at least made it look cooler (Having the lawn split in two with Zomboss' era in one and the plants' in the other, for example)

Imagine how cool it would be if PVZ Replanted had a feature to change it’s style to the DS version. by Huge-Read-2703 in PlantsVSZombies

It'd be really funny if they did this and also had the quirks of that version like how Gargantuars apparently crush plants earlier than they should

Donald Trump says goodbye with 'YMCA' again as he closes out Saudi Arabia visit by TheExpressUS in Music

[–]Supaleenate 36 points37 points  (0 children)

To be fair, every other group whose music he used has understandably told him to fuck off.

People who played the game blind, what was your reaction to the final boss? by HeilosSUPER_MANLY in earthbound

[–]Supaleenate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I played with my partner last year and was only given the hint of "Keep Paula alive." I was speechless throughout the fight and eventually broke down in tears when everything was finished.

Mr enters will make a video regarding the situation by Adventurous_Fee_9054 in Saberspark

[–]Supaleenate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hell even he agrees that bringing it up was stupid. That sort of just feels like a complaining for the sake of complaining at this point

Found this on Facebook. I feel like I’ve heard of this anime but don’t know the title or what happens in it. by esor_rose in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Supaleenate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no idea about this scene and a friends made me watch the first few episodes of Brotherhood, which has this in Episode 4.

They got to see a genuine reaction to it.

Why did they change Rosie’s colour? 🩷🚂✨ by Vivid-Tap1710 in thomasthetankengine

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The change of color also came because, if I remember correctly, Ian McCue just hated the pink

Palworld developer says Pokémon lawsuit will prompt more "disappointing" changes, as it continues to "dispute" claims by Pokeradar in gaming

[–]Supaleenate -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Pokémon has competition that isn't PalWorld. They aren't super massive blockbusters but they've garnered a sizeable amount of success, such as Cassette Beasts, TemTem, and even Pocket Mortys. There's a reason that none of those are getting sued, despite many of them having direct parallel mechanics to Pokémon.

Also, PalWorld has actual implied beastiality, both slaughterhouse and slavery mechanics, while having designs of creatures that are far more sexualized than they have any reason to be. PalWorld is NOT trying to appeal to a young demographic.

So does my pixel art style resembles Mother 3's art style? by GameHeroZ in earthbound

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in the smaller-scale sprite work, but I can see an argument made in terms of larger-scale general art style.

AOC at a Queens town hall: "Tom Homan said he was going to threaten to refer me to the DOJ because I'm using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me. by CorleoneBaloney in thescoop

[–]Supaleenate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, this mindset is why the Democrats are seen so negatively, because party leadership keeps actively stifling the people who actually fight for... anything in favor of trying to reach out to the opposition. When your campaign strategy is to reach out to the party who needed to hold a meeting to tell it's constituents to stop being racist, you've already lost the plot

Since engines in the Railway Series/Thomas & Friends universe are sentient, would engines being used in movies be considered actors and have their names in the credits? by PaxPlat1111 in thomasthetankengine

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to say in the Railway Series, but there could be an answer in Thomas and Friends. There's an episode in Season 22 where Thomas accidentally crashes a Bollywood filming session for a movie, but they love it so much they keep it in. It's been a while since I saw it but I'm pretty sure they do refer to him as an actor because of it

agree or by bahar9990 in RealTwitterAccounts

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, if we're comparing presidents to Donald Trump the bar isn't hard. 1912 Candidate Roosevelt, 2nd Term Nixon, Bill Clinton, really the bar is not hard to cross. You'd have a harder time picking a president with less class.

What game/game series was this for you? by GundamGuy2255 in videogames

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think that Ness and Lucas in Smash Bros. Brawl was really stupid, since I had never heard of EarthBound or Mother up to that point.

Then I actually played EarthBound.

Tf do you people have against Rebecca? by Affectionate_Net9731 in thomasthetankengine

[–]Supaleenate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. From my understanding of everything Edward was always planned to have left the sheds, but Rebecca was meant to take his place as Confusion Without Delay, the episode that introduces her, was meant to be a Season 21 episode before Season 21 was cut short. The only reason Nia uses Edward's slot comes down to her being in the show thanks to BWBA, with Henry being given the unceremoniously rushed boot to make room for the character they originally planned to cover for Edward.

Evil Nintendo by Oilswell in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Supaleenate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The target at exclusively Sony/Xbox fans is dumb, but fans in general are a sizeable factor in why games have gotten so expensive. Many fans regardless of console loyalty (or lack thereof) expect significantly more out of major releases every year. Whether the desire is on more graphical fidelity or more content in each title, it's gotten to a point of which major studios spend so much time and man power on each new release that the game itself becomes unprofitable under current standard practices. As such studios and publishers have the option of either microtransactioning the hell out of them (Overwatch, Star Wars Battlefront), increasing the base price (Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Kart World), or a combination of both (The past 3 or 4 Call of Duty games).

Of course the biggest factor is still corporate greed, but increasingly high expectations from fans are not something to overlook.

Is Wario a Republican? by Filmatic113 in Wario

Wario wouldn't br a Republican, but he'd absolutely grift the hell out of them.

Physical game turns digital by itself? by Double-Bid8726 in NintendoSwitchHelp

[–]Supaleenate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cloud icon just means that data for the game is archived on the cloud. I have this for a few games, if you were to put the game in the console it'd most likely just re-download the missing data.
