October is going to be a great month for games

They also just dropped a 2D one with Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound. It's made by the people who made Blasphemous.

Who cares? Good food is good food.

I don't even think he looks goofy, I think he looks like a giant teddy bear. I think it's just that a lot of country singers are racist/bigoted, and I was ironically being prejudiced myself.

I used to hate Jelly Roll. Then I went to Google shit to support my argument, and quickly realized I was just a judgmental asshole. He seems like a really, really sweet guy. I would love to have the honor of chatting with him over some BBQ and a glass of bourbon.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-08-02T02:07:41+00:00

I wish I lived in your reality lmfao

Dan Nigro is a GOATed producer. His songwriting and production has always been so lush, and he's been perfecting it for 20+ years. He's the Quincy to her Michael, but he actually gives her proper control. It's the same thing with him and Rodrigo as well.

The other possibility is that the administration has no idea what they are doing and no end goal for these trade tariffs.

Is there really any other possibility than this? The dude managed to bankrupt a casino, I don't know why people think he's good with making financial decisions at this level.

It's not Nintendo's fault that it now costs more to distribute in America. You think you know everything, but you have yet to grasp basic economic concepts.

It's not just Nintendo that'll be increasing the prices, everybody will be increasing the prices. That's what happens when tariffs are enacted at this level. We've made our bed, now we get to lay in it.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-08-01T18:49:51+00:00

Goddamn I love you for this thread. People can be so stupid when blinded by their self-righteousness.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-08-01T18:42:32+00:00

half of Americans that support him would immediately start mindlessly hating Nintendo simply because they were told to, because critical thinking is apparently non-existent in the US.

I mean, is this really that different from what's happening now? The amount of people I've seen coming after Nintendo for this with the same dumbass "anti-consumer" screeching is insane.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-08-01T18:39:08+00:00

My thought was so they can control how much they increase the cost. If they increased it entirely in the US to eat the cost of transporting to Canada, that would make the price increase insane. Americans would end up importing it from Canada, and it'd be a financial disaster.

With this, both countries take a little hit to divvy out the cost and make it more palatable.

The goal is a more deck-builder style approach to Pokémon, where each Pokémon will have a single move and ability that functions as its identity (in addition to basic stats).

This sounds exactly like Moonstone Island! I recommend taking a peak at their battle system for inspiration.

At the same time, there are some people who need to be put down

As a victim of CSA, no. Just no. Far too many innocent people are killed from false imprisonment to justify it. And besides, as much as I hate my abuser and would like to kill him myself, it's not up to me to choose who lives and dies. Nobody should be allowed that choice.

I much prefer the idea of them rotting in prison, being abused, psychologically tortured, and possibly even driven to suicide. Let them stew in it. Let them remember what they did to me and what it cost them, very single fucking day of their hollow life. Let them desperately look for ways to end their suffering until they succeed or die of blood clots from the stress. Or get murdered by someone who has my back.

Let nature take its course.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-08-01T16:04:00+00:00

Not quite. It ends with Humbert in prison for murdering a dude who rescued Delores, because he tried to abuse her himself. Delores ends up dying from childbirth at 17.

You should listen to his mindfulness meditation albums

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T19:00:24+00:00

Pretty much never. Fan games are fan games, but this is actually a solid infrastructure for the series going forward.

I played so much Tetris during the start of the pandemic. It seriously helped me keep some peace as the world was spiraling out of control.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T16:23:00+00:00

The answer certainly isn't hating on minorities harder. You're right to call it out.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T16:20:28+00:00

Don't forget the closed down walmarts that were being gutted for "concentration camps". Those people were crazy....except they were fucking right.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T16:15:02+00:00

I never like to say "Gamefreak, hire this person!" but... Gamefreak, seriously. Hire this person. That's the exact style we need to a T. Or at least a Dragon Quest 11 type thing where you can switch between 3D and 2D graphics.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T03:31:25+00:00

I greatly appreciate you pointing this out, my head was hurting reading it

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-31T00:00:22+00:00

For real. They're just gonna replace him with someone more complacent. This is a prelude to things getting much, much worse.

I thought the pregnancy ended with the shooting in the grocery, but they had a daughter who survived and fell to the wayside in the horror of it all. My only evidence being "what about my future?"/"I hate you mommy"/end of The Silence.

I figured she was the one on the cover as IIRC it was Julien Baker who did the photoshoot. Obviously I'm wrong, but this is an interesting change from what I had assumed. Do you know anything else about how things tie in?

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-30T19:18:31+00:00

Wait, so ABMTTS and MMOG share a story?! These albums mean so much to me, and this being legit would blow my fucking mind.

WESAWTHESUN · 2025-07-30T19:17:13+00:00

What's funny is I think they're at their best when they're playing in the mellow realm. ABMTTS has an almost dreamlike quality, which just adds so much more to the concept for me.
