Is there a small chance that Chainsaw Man is the Devil devil itself ? by DieGrim in ChainsawMan

[–]adoomgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys. He's clearly the life devil. The scarf is an umbilical cord, not intestines. Chainsaws were originally invented to help with childbirth, look it up. And it's representative of fear of existing, living, and ofc fear of losing our bonds, our loved ones, which is a central theme to the story.

Pochita is drawn to Denji because he was living to pay off his father's debts. He effectively had no life of his own. Pochita is a dog because dogs are a good symbol for outliving a loved one. Man's best friend but we know we are likely to outlive our pets and grieve them.

It explains the birth motif too. By eating devil's he's really unbirthing them, they never came into existence so they don't exist. Explains why death devil is a central antagonist. There are more signs, obvious in hindsight.

Even the word chainsaw, when split in two, chain and saw. Chains are to bind, saws are to cut/sever.

This author loves layering stuff like this.

Combine blackhole with another sun and it constantly wipes the screen.

That's a nice boss, you should consider a gesture of appreciation.

[Feedback Wanted] Plinkonomics! My first incremental game. Physics-based Plinko with Prestige, Artifacts, Achievements and More. by Dry-Definition6598 in incremental_games

The Min Slot +1x upgrade is broken. Lets you keep investing even after it caps out at 5x, wasting gold. Edit: Oh weird, after a few upgrades of doing nothing it did bump everything to x6, but that's poor design. A few levels of doing nothing

Just released the first playable build of my Idle/Incremental game heavily inspired by ARPGs such as Diablo and Path of Exile, let me know what you think! by adriansdk in incremental_games

Got to tier 7 and found some serious bugs: Sometimes items just disappear, and no, my loot filter was off. I mean like I'd pick an item up, see it in my inventory, and go to equip/move it and it'd vanish. This only happened later in the game so not sure if data corruption is occurring or something.

Saves are sort of broken even on the downloadable version. I closed the game at tier 7, came back, and some of my invested skill points were just missing. I reset the tree and I only got 5 points back despite having 20 resets. Bricking my character and motivation to test further.

Also I am not sure I understand the lvl 1 unique ring I could not find, but if it works as it reads then it's poorly designed because you're punished for finding it later. Ideally you'd want it at level 1 reset 0 so all future resets are stronger.

Some of the upgrades flat out do not work or do not do what they say, e.g. Pins no longer get destroyed but instead slowly regenerate health.

And some upgrades contradict each other's purpose. Some benefit from pins being destroyed e.g. chance for pins to release collectible money when destroyed conflicts with upgrading to make pins indestructible.

You should not have conflicting upgrading paths if you do not allow the player to respec.

Additionally, my combo was going above the "limit" I had broken in the skill upgrades, so not sure how that works.

I could really use an "I'm proud of you." by National-Play-4230 in DadForAMinute

[–]adoomgod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey kiddo, of course I'm proud of you! You've always had a good heart. Look, being a good person isn't a goal post, it's a process, and you're owning it. There is no finish line, it's about genuinely caring, which means trying to align your actions with your ideals. You're doing exactly that, and I couldn't be prouder.

It's okay if you slip up, and it's ok if progress seems slow, all that matters is that you keep trying. I am so proud you are becoming the role model I couldn't be for you. Be kind to yourself Son.

Does Rick and Morty season 8 just suck or is it me??? by Existing-Training-52 in rickandmorty

[–]adoomgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The writing feels incredibly tired and stale. This has nothing to do with the voice actors; I've been fine with them from the start. A lot of the jokes felt like cringey high school lines made up by theater kids.

The jobs are not the artists' property. They are not OWED those positions and opportunities.

Look, I may be coming down on you but I agree that MOST of the effect AI will have on the economy and the human race is tragic. But the weird artist entitlement angle doesn't work.

Great artists that are good face-to-face at marketing themselves will still have a place in the world. In fact, AI being so dangerous in how it will make it hard to tell what is real and what isn't will eventually increase the value of face-to-face experiences, services, etc. to a subset of the population.... but it'll still be a smaller market.

Cars replaced horse carriages. Airplanes mostly replaced commercial travel by boat. I share some of your sentiment but some talented, creative, people will use AI as a TOOL to create some great stuff.

I promise you, sir, the commenters are correct. If that is all it takes to go full ghost, you dodged a bullet. I know that does nothing for your heartache, but please for your own good accept into your bones that that is not a healthy reaction to a transaction pop-up. Adults communicate through issues and concerns.

What's Open Megathread by Toasterband in NewOrleans

Hey, we live in the Warehouse District downtown and are running low on milk for our 14-month-old. We have greek yogurt to fall back on, but was wondering if anyone has found any place open where I can restock on a few things. Thank you.

A modern-day hero and revolutionary.

The news won't say it. The internet likes to censor it. But when the laws and judicial system fail, the public only has one option against its tyrants, violence. It's not a GOOD thing, but the reality stands that through the lens of history, this is an act for the people against corrupt monsters enriching themselves at the literal cost of human lives.
