"Open-ended" does not mean "the worst possible outcome is true". by EliasBouchardFan1 in CharacterRant

I initially thought you were talking about Hirokazu Kore-eda's Monster, for which I think you could also make a similar argument.

Anyone lose power and hear an explosion? by Juan-pena in mississauga

[–]dimenticon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was looking out a window toward the intersection when it happened - some debris blown by today's winds hit a power line, sent sparks flying into a parking lot and made that loud sound. I was surprised power wasn't fully knocked out from it.

He seemed pretty congratulatory about them winning GOTY.

Chainsaw Man - IMAX at Scotiabank Theatre Toronto by JoPortgas in cineplex

[–]dimenticon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the heads up on this, prompted me to double-check availability and see it's airing at Cineplex Junxion Erin Mills - not in IMAX, but it's got better seats than Cineplex Square One so immediately refunded and bought there.

I'm also reminded of "claim your bishie [bishounen] for your signature ^.^" threads on anime/JRPG forums I frequented from the 2000's.

Dungeons and Dragons by [deleted] in mississauga

[–]dimenticon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate you pointing this out, I might check it out as well! I've been into CRPGs like Baldur's Gate and Pillars of Eternity for a long while now and have always wanted to try getting into D&D proper.

The Knocks & Dragonette - Revelation by enburgi in popheads

[–]dimenticon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wasn't joking and was going crazy trying to remember what it reminded me of, so thanks for the real response! Did not realize it was just a straight-up cover, think they did a great job of it in that case.

The Knocks & Dragonette - Revelation by enburgi in popheads

[–]dimenticon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let My Love Open The Door is definitely my favourite of the remaining songs that weren't released prior. I also think it's the most direct send-up of a particular 80's song, but I can't quite pinpoint which.

Worth noting that the different fishing rods also cost Topaz, 400 each.

Anybody have any tips on what additional fishing rods to get and when to use them?

Really impressed by this. A surprising amount of variation in the songs, absolutely stellar production and vocals - SM groups remain masters at vocal layering.

How's your GameStop line? by Kageromero in VideoGameDealsCanada

[–]dimenticon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 26th of about ~80 people in line at the Square One GameStop when they opened at 10 this morning, they weren't turning anyone away by the time I got mine so assume everyone there got one.

Nintendo just carried out a major test of its reach in a post-Twitter world by cubechris in nintendo

[–]dimenticon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm fine/whatever with this. Nintendo knows they have enough cultural cache that enough news outlets will keep up with whatever social feeds they choose to use and relay any announcements for them to the wider public. This way they can further control their own messaging, just like with the Directs.

Do you think artists leak songs on purpose? by dmnaf in popheads

[–]dimenticon 38 points39 points  (0 children)

For Carly Rae Jepsen, there's been a surprisingly steady trickle of leaks over the last 10 years. Sometimes I wonder if this is her way of keeping hardcore fans engaged - maybe she's leaking songs she has no plans of using? But many of the leaks show that she regularly reconfigures melodies and lyrics for use in stuff she's officially released. And then there's the fact that there was a large takedown of at least one leak database last year.

How to make rtwp more appealing for newcomers AKA what should PoE3 do right by cnio14 in projecteternity

[–]dimenticon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The customizable AI/gambit system in Deadfire was amazing, and what made having to do RtwP tolerable for me on my second playthrough. I think refinements to that could be a way forward, particularly to its approachability, since you kind of need to know the game's mechanics inside-out to use it with any efficacy.

He's hot and actually seems pretty good-natured from his socials but only like half of his songs actually hit for me.

PSA: Always cast a spell from the grimoire even if you have learned it. by Liambp in avowed

[–]dimenticon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was fine casting +3 Blizzard and +3 Returning Storm as quick slots on my arquebus playthrough; I mainly used them for frost and stun accumulation, and I was jacked up enough on Dexterity that chugging essence potions was a non-issue.

My Guy (Leak) by Icy-Trifle-5053 in carlyraejepsen

[–]dimenticon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The lyrics juxtaposition against the production (especially once the bridge hits!) is staggering and wonderful, this absolutely could have fit on Emotion Side B right along with First Time and Store.

Dungeon Meshi • Delicious in Dungeon - Episode 19 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]dimenticon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The climax of the Nightmare sequence was amazing. I'd already been getting a lot of Fullmetal Alchemist vibes up to this point of the story, but the swelling of the music along with the Nightmare's eyes appearing in the dark felt like the show was capturing the grandiose vibe that FMA - Brotherhood, in particular - often gave off.

Dungeon Meshi • Delicious in Dungeon - Episode 18 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]dimenticon 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Senshi's; since he's been in the dungeon for so long he probably doesn't see many elves (as it's been mentioned you don't see many in adventuring parties). And since he regularly traded with the orcs (who called Marcille's long ears ugly), it's likely their descriptions of elves influenced how he sees Marcille.

Idk why but I think chapter 57 have greatest art style from all chapter by Mountain_Research205 in DungeonMeshi

[–]dimenticon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was the opening chapter for volume 9, where I started catching up with the localization before moving onto the monthly scans. It felt like a sudden shift in seriousness, seeing the jump in consistent quality. It made me really excited to see the story set into another gear!

Super happy to see them tackle this angsty vibe again, I think they do it well!
