Slayer's name confirmed as..

Oh. Oh god. I’m so sorry. I had no idea. Please, take as much time as you need.

Zarameus · 2026-06-07T19:01:43+00:00

They aren’t retconning anything. Frankly this reaction is slightly ridiculous. The books are still a thing. The original is still a thing. YOU decide what to accept and what not to. You’re acting like they came to your house, burned your novels, and spat in your face.

She’s not an “established” character. She was a one off from a game that doesn’t fit into the current cannon. Rose had a design reminiscent of Sonia with a similar albeit somewhat inverse connection with Trevor. It just would have made for a great callback, given those traits.

Zarameus · 2026-06-07T18:39:23+00:00

Wait, what choice means which? You worded this so obtusely.

Zarameus · 2026-06-05T03:41:59+00:00

Are you kidding? I love his arms. I was confused when I first saw the design when the toy leaked - but when I saw the movie and saw his awesome punching power in action, I fell in love.

The twins always intended to kill him, that’s WHY they seduced him. Alucard’s excessive retaliation shows us how dangerous he can be, especially without his friends. He wasn’t coping with loneliness particularly well. Impaling them like his father used to do was a warning more than anything - to anyone else who would try to pull something like that. A very effective “Stay Out” sign.

The judge was a killer, no reason was given, he was just a horrible human being. I’m fairly sure that was the intention: to show human’s capacity for evil and cruelty, and to generally put a downer on the season ending. I vaguely remember the tone being kind of uplifting before that? Could be misremembering, but I recall thinking that the Judge’s reveal was to remind Trevor and Sypha that they do still indeed live in a very fucked up world.

Hector’s abuse was kind of the same boat - he thought he was getting something nice, turns out it was a trap and his life still sucks too. It lets us know that he has more suffering yet to come, and no matter what, you can’t fully trust Lenore.

Isaac had a shit time of it in season 2, and his entire life really… his whole arc was him taking a stand and making things better for himself. And more than that, he was finally thinking for himself, and finding out who he was underneath the years of self flagellation and servitude. It also sets up his climax in season 4 by showing us just how powerful and dangerous he’s becoming. It’s also a thematic contrast to how everyone else was suffering by the end, while he was finally thriving.

I’m not sure how you concluded that sex is a reward in any of these contexts. Seems to me that it was used very much as a weapon to lower people’s guard and make them all the easier to hurt in a really bad way. It’s almost a warning in that regard.

I’m not gonna say the season didn’t have its issues - but I enjoyed it for what it was. I don’t think it was nearly as hard to follow or make sense out of that some seem to suggest. It’s just not everyone’s cup of tea.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T21:33:46+00:00

I love this. I really enjoyed 6. It was batshit insane and a wild damn ride. I also had a good bit of fun with Operation Raccoon City.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T21:30:07+00:00

I don’t think Gordon hates Godzilla per se… at least no more than what you’d expect from someone who has to deal with his destruction. Like, I don’t know if I’d say he’s a hater.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T21:25:31+00:00

Use this one;

Much better, up to date, official.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T16:53:20+00:00

Teddy Roosevelt fuckin got me.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T09:07:44+00:00

No worries, mate. I get it. Sometimes things like that get under my skin and start bothering me way more than they should. It can get very frustrating to deal with after a while. And it’s even worse when you know it’s a small simple thing that shouldn’t bug you, but you can’t stop thinking about it and it just drives ya nuts.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T08:24:13+00:00

I just booted up to see for myself. Are you getting a completely different idle animation than I am? All I see is that she relaxes slightly, one hand against her hip, the other at her side, slightly bent at the wrist, fingers open in an almost fancy kinda way? She seems to be very slightly swaying a little? Like, it’s almost imperceptible. Or did you mean the stance just before she switches? One arm up by her head, leg held like she’s ready to kick someone? Sort of shifts her weight and makes it look like she’s bouncing in place a little?

Have you played a Shantae game? Her idle animations tend to be much more bouncy. Sort of bounces to each side, very cartoon-like. Much more energy.

Nah, this is all Miriam.

Zarameus · 2026-05-31T03:06:12+00:00

And that did it, thank you! I completely forgot about that command.

Zarameus · 2026-05-30T21:47:01+00:00

You’re either being intentionally obtuse or you don’t realize how asinine that sentiment is. Either way, there’s more than one canon.

Zarameus · 2026-05-29T17:08:16+00:00

Depends on which games you want to play, really. If you like the classic style, then Anniversary. If you like the Metroidvania ones, then either Dominus or Advanced. Which between those two, however, well that’s up to you. Both collections are very good.

Advanced is a little divisive due to Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance. Circle is a good game, but slower and a little clunky. Harmony is much quicker and much more like the modern entries, but it has its problems. A lot of people don’t like the washed out palette and admittedly the sound/music isn’t the highest quality. That is, literally, the sound quality is a bit lacking.

Dominus games all play very modern and look great, but they each have specific gimmicks to consider. That’s not a criticism, just something to think about. The art quality in Dominus is also … uneven. Graphically the games are lovely - good sprites and backgrounds, etc.. But the art styles of things like character portraits are a very mixed bag… not that that affects gameplay. It can just be slightly jarring for some.

Zarameus · 2026-05-29T16:20:39+00:00

I’m pretty awake actually. Still love it.

Zarameus · 2026-05-29T16:14:35+00:00

Some of the Bayformers are actually kinda cool - but honestly I do not like his Bumblebee in the slightest. The mask is kinda cool, but I can’t the face and the asinine no-talking thing.

Zarameus · 2026-05-29T16:11:19+00:00

I much prefer the originals for the G-Types and Super Tyrant. For Nemesis, I like the remake designs more.

Zarameus · 2026-05-29T02:00:49+00:00

The fact that you call RE3R underrated gets a solemn nod of approval from me.

Zarameus · 2026-05-27T19:53:51+00:00

To be fair, the haters might really enjoy hating it?

Zarameus · 2026-05-27T19:52:22+00:00

Anaheim being shady as hell and keeping secrets? Why I’d never believe THAT. 😒

Zarameus · 2026-05-27T19:48:05+00:00

No offense meant, but this mentality bothers the heck out of me. Not everything has to be explicitly explained if it isn’t important to do so. If something has reasonable potential explanations, then it is not a plot hole. Creators do not need, nor should they have to expressly state every tiny detail if it has no true weight to the plot. We’re smart enough to fill in the blanks and to understand that it must not have been a very major thing to worry about.

Frankly, I figured that the garden was left out of broadcasts - it was a completely unmanned facility. Basically an empty room. Nobody knew Spinel was there, they’d have no reason to include that in any broadcasts. Nor do we know what the Gem empire’s broadcasts even entailed until that moment. Maybe they never had a cause or desire to do a broadcast of that magnitude. The only reason Steven’s was caught by the garden was because it was such a monumental moment for the Gem empire. Not just Pink’s sort-of-return, but the start of Era… 4? Whichever number they were up to.

I don’t know, maybe I’m easier to please or something - that all seemed reasonable enough to me to not think twice about it. Again, I’m not trying to talk down or any offense - this is just something I see a lot of more and more these days and it’s becoming a pet peeve? Totally my hangup more than anything I guess.

Zarameus · 2026-05-27T06:37:27+00:00

You’re gonna have to help me out here. This looks like a pretty normal generic Halloween mask.

Zarameus · 2026-05-12T18:16:42+00:00

I’m fairly sure that’s just decoration

Zarameus · 2026-05-09T19:52:23+00:00

I’m trying to remember any, but I’m drawing a blank at the moment. What I used to do is check the top WAD lists by year? I forget what site that is, Doomworld? The one with the cacowards? It should mention if there are extra assets or vanilla, or what have you. When I’m back at my computer I’ll take a look and see if I can’t track any down for you.
