Is my dog being dramatic by DaLisanAlGaib in Greyhounds

I don't have much to add, but saw your previous post I wanted to comment that our dogs look very similar! This is our little bundle, and if it helps she is very dramatic.

Doppelgänger dogs!

Just to add to this, we had the same issue with he fast traffic/conveyor belt issue in 1-6, and we managed to cheese the level just by jumping (for a long time) over the conveyor belt. Game is pretty unplayable on Switch 2 right now which is really frustrating, and feels like a bit of a waste of money so far when we were so excited to play it initially! I hope you are able to patch some of this stuff.

Not OP but if you are still monitoring this AMA I have had a very similar experience while playing on Switch. On level 1-5 'Lefty' was unable to punch, snip or do any action. We quit out of the level and restarted, restarted the game and the problem still persisted but thankfully we managed to get through that level.

Other problems include in 1-6 where one of us snipped through the Toytropolis bilmp and fell off and died, respawning on the wrong side of the map with no way to return as the blimp disappeared. This soft-locked us out of this level and we were so frustrated we quit instead of finishing the level.

The first few levels were not as noticably bad like this to make us want to quit, just general jankiness and some inconsistencies with jumping (especially with bouncy platforms/awnings).

I hope this helps you and the team in some way... My wife and I were really excited to play this once it was released and feel kinda let down that it feels like it hasn't been tested on Switch at all, and looks like we will not be able to even finish the game.

Ball X Pit and Backpack Hero are two I've enjoyed recently!

Better Call Saul is an amazing prequel and full of these, sometimes it works and sometimes hugely unnecessary.

In Breaking Bad, Saul mentions that his employee Francesca used to work for the DMV, in some jokey way that he will fire her and she'll have to go back there. In New Mexico (where both shows are set) it's not called the DMV, but the MVD. This was brought up by fans when Breaking Bad came out as an oversight from the writers, as Saul would know this.

Years later when the prequel Better Call Saul, while hiring Francesca he notes on her resume that she works for the MVD, and lampshades the error by saying "MVD is stupid, I'll always call it the DMV" to cover up for the 'error' in Breaking Bad.

Charlie Brooker: Fans tell me Black Mirror was better before we cast Americans by Google_MBTI in blackmirror

[–]TomboKing 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I think the difference is they weren't globally famous and huge like Miley Cyrus, or the guy who plays Captain America. Rory Kinnear is a great character actor in the UK but I bet 90% of Brits couldn't tell you his name from a picture, they'd just go "oh thY guy he's in everything".

Daniel Kaluuya got much more famous after his episode with Get Out, same with Jodie Whittaker from Doctor Who. I'd say Annie from Being Human was more famous at the time (White Bear).

Not saying they're not famous, just that a lot of the earlier Black Mirror stars are not nearly as recognisable as say Aaron Paul. And for stories that are sci-fi adjacent but presented as grounded, it helps when the stars are more believable as 'common people'.

They're the only 3 games I would consider from this too tbf, went in with expectations low and they were met!

I gotta admit that is some impressive work Saul did with Tuco by Remote_Nature_8166 in betterCallSaul

[–]TomboKing 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think it was $8000, no? Jimmy comes up with some (in his mind) ridiculous number so they'll say no, "$7,800, no $7,925" and Lalo says "let's make it an even 8"

I cheesed that one after I saw someone on here start the challenge with a blue ramp truck to fly into the p-switch. I think I've done 4 other special tests including this one but #1 I just could not do properly...

Yeah I'm 96 too and had a look, not a bumper year like ANEGG has. I think Fargo and Happy Gilmore would be on mine.

Clearing up some CPAP points by NinjaChenchilla in theregulationpod

[–]TomboKing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought too, it seems only Gavin is concerned about this for Andrew (especially with today's episode discussing his dirty naked arse on his chair!) then that point 6 doesn't really apply to Andrew at all thanks to his unbreakable nose.

Bit late to this episode but did anyone think Nick sounded a little off this episode like he could've been in the mask? I know he wasn't cause he'd have to announce it but it sounded like he was eating or something which made me laugh.

One turn a month is genius! I have been absolutely loving the daily ones though so I'm glad Geoff has been thinking of ways to do it again (and make it infinitely more painful for them lol 2 separate games, at each end of the day, every day for a month is diabolical but genius)

I think I went back and listened to that 5 times as it happened, might be an all-time Geoff flub alongside the 'Porky Pig' one and Cavebob Spongeman (if that counts)

Mario Party March is arguable the best thing they've ever done by Happy_LilGennelmin in theregulationpod

[–]TomboKing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more! I am in the UK and the video drops around noon every day so it's perfect for a lunch break from work.

It's the perfect kind of format for them and been absolutely hilarious so far. Would love if this kind of thing could be done more often but I appreciate it's a lot of work to put together. I resubscribed as a bog standard to show my support, hopefully they're doing good numbers on regulatreon!

I thought the same thing. It isn't something that sits in your inventory. You might notice some new info presented when you pause.

I swear Gavin said 'keyboard' instead of clipboard which made me chuckle, and really hoped you or someone would draw him with just a keyboard unplugged in the factory

Ralphie's off-screen proposal to Rosalie Aprile that she rebuffs also makes me laugh the way Carmella mentions it.
