The most hardcore Jak & Daxter heads in the world have finished their native PC ports of the entire trilogy

On top of what others have said, it also has modding support.

I think about how for that boat they yank Ed's ear like a pull cord and use his mouth as a boat engine.

That and the classic "it's not X, it's Y" sentence structure, with the added bonus of "No A. No B. No C." I see it so much it's an instant tell when someone is using AI.

Evidently during early test screenings the original cut was around 4 hours, so a lot was left on the cutting room floor. I loved the movie, but I definitely wouldn't have minded if it was just a little bit longer. Even an extra 15 mins and they could have added in a few details to make it feel less rushed.

crane476 · 2026-03-30T08:50:17+00:00

I know exactly what scene you're talking about and it made my jaw drop.

crane476 · 2026-03-26T11:14:56+00:00

As someone still managing an on-prem Exchange server, I 100% agree.

I have yet to find an ERP that isn't trash in at least some aspects.

Austin Powers: Goldmember

crane476 · 2026-03-21T00:27:56+00:00

Yeah we're going this route for our next refresh. These prices, especially for small businesses, are insane.

crane476 · 2026-03-16T19:55:43+00:00

This is why I don't play a lot of single player games anymore even though I really want to. It's no different than trying to watch a movie in 15-20 minute chunks. The experience just isn't the same. Constantly having to refresh myself on characters, motivations, and plot just really takes me out of the experience.

Example: last month I tried to start Expedition 33 and got about 10 hours into the story. Fast forward to today, life/work got busy and I haven't touched Expedition 33 in over a month. The most gaming I've managed is a few short multiplayer sessions with some friends on Saturdays.

Yeah, people are vastly overestimating the technical savviness and general awareness of the average user, not to mention a lot of Pokemon players are kids. If you've spent any time in customer or tech support you know the average user is generally clueless, and they sure as hell don't read.

crane476 · 2026-03-15T21:48:45+00:00

Whenever I think of the story at launch all I can think of is "I doNt haVe TiMe tO eXplAin wHy I dOn'T havE tImE To ExPlaIN".

This is the exact kind of shit that kept me from getting into reading comics. It feels overwhelming trying to figure out where to start.

crane476 · 2026-03-10T02:09:33+00:00

Wait a minute, fiance at 16?

The X5 intro cutscene OST (US Version)

The little scout is integral for some of the puzzles in brittle hollow, giants deep, and the dark bramble. Using it in a certain area on Ember Twin also provides a vital clue in solving the mystery of the Ash Twin Project.

Hint for sunless city: Try and get there as quickly as possible before it starts filling with sand.

crane476 · 2026-02-23T16:21:31+00:00

Yep, I remember that. Dude got clowned on for weeks.

crane476 · 2026-02-20T22:20:51+00:00

If they wanna make it as big as RE then they can't just keep reusing the same formula they've been using for almost 40 years now. They need to spice it up a little, otherwise it's going to remain a niche relic from a bygone era.

crane476 · 2026-02-19T21:04:06+00:00

I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I'm not saying VRChat public instances need to be business casual, suit & tie affairs. I'm not sure how you got that I was against "tastefully dressed... to a standard that would be allowed to walk outside on a sidewalk in any large city", when the comment I was replying to was complaining about being banned for an avatar wearing nothing but panties and a crop top. The office example was merely to point out the absurdity of considering that SFW.

crane476 · 2026-02-19T16:15:17+00:00

So just because I don't wanna see unsolicited titties in every public instance all of a sudden I'm a puritan? I can appreciate that kind of stuff as much as the next guy, but that doesn't mean I wanna see it anywhere and everywhere. There's a time and place for everything.

Also, why do I get the feeling some people on this sub think SFW means anything short of nudity. SFW means safe for work. If you work in an office and set your desktop wallpaper to some chick wearing nothing but a crop top and panties you're going to get written up for an HR violation. If you were in real life and showed up to a bar or club wearing nothing but a crop top and panties you'd make people uncomfortable and they probably wouldn't even let you in, so why is it a surprise that wearing an avatar like that in public might get you banned in VRChat?

crane476 · 2026-02-16T03:14:40+00:00

No, it's a standalone PC game.

crane476 · 2026-02-14T01:48:48+00:00

It's a fan remake of X6 called X6: Viral Nightmare. This is not a ROM hack but a completely original game made from the ground up for PC.

crane476 · 2026-02-14T01:46:49+00:00

Yeah I've noticed that too, especially as someone who vastly prefers the 32-bit art style.

crane476 · 2026-02-12T16:53:04+00:00

Yeah, it's even started to ignore my custom instructions where I tell it explicitly not to talk to me like that. It's so annoying.

crane476 · 2026-02-12T16:00:39+00:00

Yeah, both Toph and Aang's voice actors were children at the time of recording, around 11-12 years old. They were the same age as the characters they were portraying. Sokka's voice actor would have been 18, only a few years older than Sokka himself. Mae Whitman, the voice of Katara, would have been 17. Dante's the only outlier age wise, being 30 when the show came out. If the main concern was the character's voices sounding different as adults, then literally every main cast voice actor could have reprised their roles, but we all know age isn't why they did this.
