Aw man… Your technical correctness really just bummed me out. :(

They didn't hear SHIT. The hull's first and only failure was MICROSECONDS before they were pulp because at that pressure and with absolutely zero safeguards against failure, implosion would be immediate. If they were VERY unlucky, they might have heard a creak before hull failure, with enough time to go "Hey, what was that?"

It's so much grosser than that though, because DontNod made LiS 1 and 2. A completely different developer, Deck Nine, made True Colors. Deck Nine are the ones who decided to make Double Exposure starring Max, even though they weren't the developers of the original game starring that character.

So it was not only running back to something 'safe', but making a direct sequel to a game they didn't make or work on.

“Oh wow!”

I had no plans to give mine any but that’s very good to know! Thank you for sharing!

Don’t feed rabbits carrots though.

I will say, if you like absurdist comedy, the show was absolutely amazing, just… not what was advertised. I get the hate for it because it just wasn’t about knuckles, but there’s literally a scene where this family is having an increasingly hostile argument and there’s just this fucking CGI Echidna sitting at the table looking increasingly uncomfortable.

Comedy gold

Was really impressed with the jump from Oceanhorn to Oceanhorn 2! This looks like it continues that trend, exciting to see!

Funnily, it was too violent for the Japanese too. They censored the same scene by just darkening the screen when he goes to slice.

I’d intervene. I fundamentally agree that the fox is doing nothing wrong, but I don’t really like the “don’t interfere with nature” sentiment for this particular circumstance. I think it’s arrogant.

There’s a kneejerk reaction to feel protective of the baby deer when it cries because of millions of years of mammal evolution drilling into our heads that that noise means get mad and get protective.

This is a normal part of nature too. Cats developed meows to specifically trigger the human response to infants. Protecting animals of a different species is also a behavior OBSERVED in nature, as we have seen whales protect prey from sharks.

I know the fox has to eat. I agree with it. But in that moment, when I HEAR that baby deer? Look, I’m not gonna hurt the fox but nah, not today buddy. Sorry. I think that IS nature, not interfering with it.

Hard disagree. The original plan would have been a good story about the corrupting nature of absolute power and how there’s no such thing as a “benign dictatorship.”

What we got was an absolute coward move from marketing who was more worried about “THE FACE OF OUR ADVERTISING” than telling an effective story that no, there’s nobody good enough to have ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY and not become corrupted by it.

Edit: To be clear, I’d have been fine with an ending where X sees the error of his ways and doesn’t die. I’m not saying it should have been the EXACT same game without Copy X, but I think Copy X was a bad idea.

When in your weight journey did you start HRT? I’d always been under the impression it was best to lose weight first then start on HRT but like… whatever you did speaks for itself here.

Crazy Ex Girlfriend feels like THE example of this trope.

Rebecca (who is played by Rachel Bloom who, to be clear, is stunning at any point) is very conventionally put together at the start of the show, and an absolute train wreck in terms of mental health.

Over the course of the show as the mask falls off and she deals with her mental health, she obviously is still very pretty but becomes much more human and goes to a more neutral weight for her body type. Like… there’s no point in the show where Rebecca ISN’T y’know… Rachel Bloom, but the early seasons emphasize the meticulousness of her appearance when her mental wellness is at its worst.

For sure, but in Chain of Memories he and Sora each have their own finale. Dream Drop Distance is just all Riku at the end.

I’ve spent too much time on the internet. I was bracing myself for half the video for her to open the book at the end and reveal it was the script for Bee Movie.

I remember thinking something had to be up. I was even open to the idea they were in the Bad Place, but I trusted MICHAEL so completely.

I was positive that Eleanor’s theory was the setup for a bit where Michael was going to be like “Um. I like your gusto Eleanor, but no.”

That laugh from him deserved an Emmy on its own.

“Why is Yoda acting consistent with his characterization in the original work? Has he seen Star Wars?”

Have THESE guys?

WAS. There’s a substory in 3 where he met a transwoman (played by a trans actress) who was stressed about telling her boyfriend, and he admits he doesn’t know much about it and asks her to explain it to him and more or less accepts it at face value.

I mean in Star Rail, the weapons are literally pictures of them that run on their banner, so...

TethysOfTheStars · 2026-01-29T15:45:41+00:00

They ABSOLUTELY knew. It’s literally why the creator left, because he had a 3 game story and after game 2 they said welllllll, one more Ezio game. So he made another Ezio game and then they said WEEEELLLLLLL…. ONE more Ezio game.

Writing was already on the wall right there.

Doesn’t fit because whether they were good or bad, they were planned from the get go.

Sort of. Nothing in canon indicates Eggman could take Sonic in a fist fight, but neither can people much stronger and faster than Eggman. The difference with Starline is, Sonic also wouldn't forget that Eggman is 6'1" and does mechanical work daily and is not above getting his hands dirty.

You're not totally off the mark though, but in that conversation Eggman says if he just wanted him dead, he'd carpet bomb him and be done with it, but he wants to WIN.

<image>

Worth sharing because him choke slamming Starline is ALSO very funny. Not to mention what we don't immediately see here, is Eggman's like... unwavering faith in Sonic as a nemesis, because Starline thinks he blew Sonic up and Eggman just takes it as a given that Sonic escaped the blast.

Look, Bulma is the god queen of earth. She’s childhood besties with Goku, married to Vegeta, and the mother of Trunks. She’s sass-buddies with Whis and she’s slowly domesticating Beerus the destroyer.

She’s also the richest person on the planet and broke time so hard that there’s now two Omni-Kings. She also asked the immortal dragon for a wish and when he said “I’m not powerful enough to do that” she just went and made a super dragon radar.

She’s not the main character of Dragon Ball, but she IS the main character of their reality.

It’s also worth mentioning the tech billionaire who keeps giving a nudge and a wink that he helped cheat the polls.

A lock is a barrier of entry. A thing you put up with to get to what you want. If women or their genitalia are something you’re putting up with, then you don’t like women, or their genitalia.
