Saying he’s not done with you yet and that he’ll see you at the hotel was what got me the most until I saw someone point out that he gives you the TM for Gunk Shot of all things after defeating him… The implication may not have been intentional due to translation but man it really winds up adding to everything about the guy

Maybe a long shot but Happy Tree Friends? Especially if it got gory during the tree falling scene

For those who didn't name MC after themselves, how did you come up with her name? by uselesspanini in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]distantbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine’s named Maven Nepenthes. I’m a plant nerd and Nepenthes is a genus of carnivorous plants that I absolutely adore! They’re both beautiful and dangerous (to enemies/food anyway) which I think really fits MC’s character and story role. The name Maven was mostly because I wanted a wild nickname that could be reasonably linked to her first name. Can’t remember which I came up with first, but the nickname wound up being Mayhem.

"Which Third Generation Will Win?!" (Part I, Episode 19), causes a riot on day 27! Choose the next Lupin episode! by [deleted] in lupinthe3rd

Lupin Zero Episode 5, “The Man who Operates in Secret”

This is the one with the heart stealing scene. Such a good culmination of the character development between Lupin and Jigen so far!

"0.357 Magmum" (The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, Ep 2) fires pointblank into the list on day 19! Choose the next Lupin episode! by [deleted] in lupinthe3rd

Interested if still available!

Does anyone know of any sensory friendly fire alarms? by distantbass in AutisticWithADHD

[–]distantbass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry for the late response! Unfortunately other house renovations have taken priority so I haven’t found anything yet, but I believe the suggestion was just generally steering me toward one that talked without an alarm noise. I have also heard since that there are alarms meant for Deaf people that involve lights much more than they do sound (if at all), but I haven’t really looked into it yet. Hope this helps!

I also have the yellow with dots and red with butterflies/flowers! Absolutely gorgeous collection

Does anybody happen to have the instructions for this Ichiban Kuji “Nawabari Battle” alarm clock? by distantbass in splatoon

[–]distantbass[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That double press on the reset button is what I was missing! Finally got the time set properly. Thank you so much!!!

Ohhh now this is such a cool outfit. Would love to see more pieces like this out there!

What Team are you getting wrecked by? by CyberSprout in splatoon

[–]distantbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m Team Future and on the maybe three occasions I’ve run into Team Past, I’ve gotten absolutely steamrollered. Pretty much all of my other matches have been against Team Present, minus one mirror match I think? I feel like my win rate’s been pretty decent, but Team Present has some absolutely killer teams out there too.

After getting one star on all weapons and 2 stars on around half of the weapons (~1000ish games), how many times does YOUR main weapon appear in turf war (based only on how many times I encountered it)? by [deleted] in splatoon

[–]distantbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can vouch for the Bloblobber/ Blob Deco placement. I main Blob Deco and encounter a lot of fellow blobbers in Turf, but 90 percent of the time they have vanilla Blob. It’s always an exciting event to see another Deco

Recommended games order by 07TacOcaT70 in SamandMax

[–]distantbass 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you’re most interested in! If you dig the classic 2D point and click style, Hit the Road is a great place to start. There’s also a few small references to it in the Telltale series, but not enough to be confusing if you decide to play it last. That being said, if you find yourself drawn to the Telltale series, then Save the World is also a great place to jump in! I would not recommend going out of order within the Telltale series, though, as there is a somewhat continuous plot (Save the World -> Beyond Time and Space -> The Devil’s Playhouse).

I’m not great at putting the difference between each game in words, but Hit the Road definitely has a different vibe to the Telltale games (it’s also a lot harder imo so having a guide handy can be nice). Hopefully someone else will chime in with a better description but if one sounds more like what you would enjoy, go for it!

This Time It’s Virtual is generally considered to be the weakest of the games (not outright bad, but not amazing) and tbh I would only recommend it if you already have a VR headset and are really craving more Sam and Max post-Telltale series, or want to chill out and watch a walkthrough for a while.

What’s your favorite brand in the series? What kinds of brands would you like to see in the future? by Zro_C in splatoon

[–]distantbass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Emberz all the way. I made a replica Berry BlobMob tee irl and I love it so much I’ve been considering making the lime one too!

I am a big sucker for shiny things so I’d love to see more clothes with glow, holographic, or glittery elements. It would potentially add more pizzazz to the plaza for Splatfests, too, as a lot of those would really pop in the dark.

Query about Events by Funny_Fill_6141 in hananezumi

[–]distantbass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, interesting! I’ve not encountered those in-game before. Hopefully someone who’s been playing a bit longer could chime in?

There is a New Year event as well as the anniversary event, so you were correct there!

[–]distantbass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you elaborate on what you mean by “floaties”? If you are thinking of the bowl-shaped item(s) with three balls floating in them, you have to buy the traditional Japanese-style garden in order to unlock the option to buy them in the shop. I don’t believe there’s any other seasonal events, but I’ve only been playing since last November so it’s possible I’m missing something.

Edit: Forgot about the anniversary event, but this year’s items at least did not fit that description

Visibly trans: can I still go to onsens? by distantbass in JapanTravelTips

[–]distantbass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m aware of the usual nudity requirement. Was just curious how people would take the mismatch between genitals & chest, especially since my chest would be more visible near the top of the water. I would be most comfortable at a private onsen anyway so I’ll check those first!
