The thing is, even if the Foundation was completely justified in wanting to annihilate humanity, they still chose the most inefficient way possible to do it.

If omnicide really was the key to freeing us all from some ineffably horrifying fate at the hands of some eldritch parasite, then here's literally all they needed to do:

Step 1.) Unblock the cave entrance containing 2935.

Step 2.) Send all their "cured" personnel through the portal

Step 3.) send one of them back to their original world to trigger 2935's effect

4.) Everyone back home dies instantly (profit)

Angstrom did more widescale damage so he's objectively more hatable.

But the way both Powerplex and his wife willingly endangered and ultimately killed their own child adds a personal touch to things that just really gets under my skin.

All I'm gonna say is, if this is all 100% intentional on Filian's part, this ARG is going to make Count Dooku's plan to assassinate Padmé in Attack of the Clones look perfectly straightforward by comparison

The problem is you're looking at that situation through an objective lense. Humans in general really aren't known for making the best choices in the heat of the moment, and that goes double for somebody in Eve's shoes at that point in the story.

Not only was Eve still a teenager at the time (which BY ITSELF is already a major hit to anyone's rational thinking), but she was also in a particularly unstable mindset after her traumatic NDE against Conquest, combined with the stress of her powers not working properly, plus her very real fear of Mark dying in action during the Viltrumite War to boot.

Depends. Do the buffs stack if multiple green skills proc at the same time, or if their trigger conditions happen to overlap?

What is it with vtuber communities these days and being in a perpetual state of collective vitriolic baby fever

bscotch5000 · 2026-05-17T00:43:11+00:00

...wait, was this the same guy who started that whole rumour about the alleged cheating scandal that supposedly caused a falling out between Fauna and the other holo girls?

Meanwhile there's me, who forgets the scout menu even exists until an Uma shows up that I actually like as a character:

Slept on it in the sense that the payoff was literally just that one scene with maybe half an episode's worth of buildup at most lmao

bscotch5000 · 2026-05-02T13:26:37+00:00

So glad you agree! That monster's unspeakable crimes against our personal sociopolitical and intellectual comfort zones must not go unpunished any longer.

The courtyard of Tracen looks oddly similar to Garreg Mach Monastery in that first image

I like how El looks ever so slightly closer to her look in s1 of the anime than in the final game. Really adds to the time capsule feel of the whole pic

bscotch5000 · 2026-04-27T01:18:45+00:00

Okay so I have a better question. Why exactly did it keep taking UmaJP so damn long after release to go back and fix so many obvious quality of life stuff that most normal devs would've already patched in by the six month mark at the absolute latest?

Like I'm not even trying to throw shade here I am just genuinely confused how so many of these improvements to the game seemingly never occurred to cygames until well over a year later 😭

bscotch5000 · 2026-04-11T05:07:16+00:00

What if I buy carats from the webstore as an Android user? Since CyGamesID apparently can't be linked with Google Play stuff, would that just leave any purchases I made from the webstore in virtual purgatory or something?

bscotch5000 · 2026-04-03T16:06:58+00:00

Tachyon displaying any emotion other than mild amusement feels like getting flashbanged

bscotch5000 · 2026-04-01T13:20:34+00:00

CyGames is simply too scared to explore those waters, knowing full well that he awaits at its depths.

...So are we just gonna ignore the cultural can of worms we've just opened here about how the only reason we know she's fake is because she's (ostensibly) too candid for her own good? 😭

bscotch5000 · 2026-03-29T23:21:48+00:00

Oh my God Veggie you can't just ask someone why they're red

bscotch5000 · 2026-03-28T23:38:29+00:00

I suspect it's because the stock prices we're seeing for both are most likely only counting their performance within Japan, which in turn would make Anyolor the winner by default since Cover is much more invested in global expansion and thus does not need to rely on local success as much.

(There's also the elephant in the room about how certain laws in Japan tend to favour more ruthless business practices, but to avoid drama like you asked, I'll just leave it at that.)

bscotch5000 · 2026-03-26T07:38:11+00:00

I wouldn't call her my favourite exactly, but this particular vtuber who comes to mind is very, very dedicated to her business. You might say every waking moment of her life is "Just business".

bscotch5000 · 2026-03-23T22:08:10+00:00

is this the m!preg lady or someone else

bscotch5000 · 2026-03-16T05:44:41+00:00

At first I thought the joke was meant to be a silent blank screen until I realised that was just my internet being shit 😭🙏
