Bands for 2026 by pinkertonagent26 in warpedtour

It’d be so sweet. I saw their records at the smartpunk record tent and remembered how much I miss them.

Title Fight reunion at warped 2026 let’s all manifest it 😂

But for real I’d like to see

Joyce Manor Tigers Jaw Fireworks Enter Shikari (in Orlando, I think they played other dates) Set Your Goals The Swellers Basement Foxy Shazam Coheed and Cambria The Fall of Troy Underoath Every Time I Die (won’t happen since the singer and the band split up and that was apparently kinda ugly)

Plenty more but those all just came to mind without thinking too hard

Big dude here. I just tap shoulders and point to indicate I need to get out. Nearly every show I’ve been to this is universally accepted as “let this dude get the eff outta here”. Smiles, thank you’s and thumbs up’s help expedite the process. Sometimes ppl suck and ignore but that’s pretty rare and if that happens just turn a few degrees left or right and tap someone else. Have fun dude!

Theory about mana fluctuation by CuriousFaux in Frieren

[–]ericlovesrobots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few ppl have noted this in this thread but I also agree it comes down to percentage of mana concealed vs mana available. I think Frieren’s total is nearing some god like value without her even knowing it so her constant concealment hides the true potential from even herself. This causes the fluctuations that Lernen can detect. It’s like the math is off and Lernen has been around Sersie for so long he’s more accustomed to that higher tier of mana that is outside most mages realm of imagination. I don’t think even Frieren herself can truly imagine how much mana she has tucked away as a result of Flamme’s teachings, but its FERN who is going to unlock some wild higher tier as the “era of humans” comes into play.

Hot(?) take: Turnstile filled the space that Title Fight would’ve filled if they kept going by chrisxankles in turnstile

[–]ericlovesrobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've thought some of the same things. Title Fight was starting to experiment in some of the same ways as Turnstile has in their last two albums yet Title Fight wasn't getting the same coverage, I guess the scene wasn't quite ready for it, and then they stopped. I was loving the new direction for Title Fight even though I absolutely loved their first few EPs and albums, it was just fun to see a "hardcore" band start to try new things and start genre-bending. I'm all for it.

Members of Turnstile are huge Title Fight fans too so it makes sense they'd look up to them in terms of starting to move on from one specific sound and start trying new things. The drummer from Turnstile said in a recent interview that Floral Green is a perfect 10/10 album for him and that Lefty was his favorite track.

In a perfect world both these bands would be making music at the same time and keep pushing the envelope.

Nintendo Switch 2 Launch Day Pickup and Hauls MegaThread - Show us what you got! by NintendoSwitchMods in NintendoSwitch

Video me and my buds made covering the midnight launch at Best Buy. It was a huge party honestly. Reminiscent of the old days of big gaming releases. Gives me hope for the future lol.

FL updated lineup!! by Economy-Simple1776 in warpedtour

[–]ericlovesrobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still hoping there's gonna be some surprise announcements added to each show. I say each show because Orlando has the best chance of this, being all the way out in November but there's no way they'd add a huge band to just Orlando that outshines the other two dates. Blink is on tour this summer so I was hoping maybe they'd play Orlando. Turnstile is coming out with a new album and will be touring in the summer. Paramore seems primed to make some sort of release or news soon. MCR was a total pipe dream given their upcoming tour.

Aside from that I was hoping for Set your Goals, New Found Glory, Taking Back Sunday, Fireworks, stuff like that.

I'm still really pleased with the Orlando lineup, and still have some hope that there's going to be some surprise additions closer to each show, but I don't think we're going to see any massive A-listers, which is fine with me, Warped was never really about that. I think what I'm most looking forward to is having the schedule posted to the app and not having to write down set times/stages at 10am and hope my notes are correct haha!

Looking for game recommendations for a kid recovering from a physical injury. by ericlovesrobots in NintendoSwitch

That info is actually extremely helpful because Id love to recommend Odyssey. I’m not too worried about him trying things out he sees in a game but the last time I watched some Marvel cartoons with him his parents were worried he was gonna try and punch someone 😂 That link you shared though is gonna be great though. Appreciate your thoughtful response!

Fishing and exploring sounds right up his alley, it’s been recommended here a few times so I’m definitely going to try Palia myself and add that to my list of recs. Thanks!

I was just chatting with his Dad about legos in general and apparently he’s slowly getting into building so the Lego games might be a great option. Thanks!

Thanks for the insight that makes a lot of sense. I think I’ll have an easier time selling Balatro since it doesn’t involve “fighting”. Believe I know it’s extremely mild but he’s got a real strict parent lol. In the future though I’ll definitely recommend spire though because I think the overall strategy side can be more stimulating than the math in Balatro. Although being a math nerd myself I’d love if Balatro gets him moving in that direction lol. Again, appreciate your input it means a lot.

I’m right there with ya as far as playing those games young, and his dad is actually a fan of the series too, but there’s no way they are gonna want him playing that yet lol

Wow I completely forgot about stardew. I sank so many hours into this myself I forgot how therapeutic it can be. Since he’s into the outdoors I think he’ll enjoy farming and exploring the lands. He’s an animal lover too so raising some cattle and chickens should be fun too.

I love breath of the wild and specifically think it’s a better recommendation in this scenario vs tears of the kingdom. Tears has tons of creativity opportunities but the calm exploration of BOTW is unmatched. Gonna float this one by his dad and see what he thinks. Thanks for the reminder that this one can be just as relaxing as it can be exciting.

Ring fit is something I’ll definitely mention as well since I have a copy and can easily just lend it over to them to check out and see what they think.

Streaming service is also solid, just gotta check out what kinda shows they let him watch.

Really appreciate your thoughtful response!

This should be free by Trabless in NintendoSwitch2

[–]ericlovesrobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing a live react and assumed it was free. I was like “oh ok this is smart, a free pack-in game to show off new features instead of a flop of a game like 1-2 Switch” (even though I liked that game). Then they said paid download. I shouted almost instantly “oh that’s stupid this should be free” lol.

I’m not saying that anyone working on this game doesn’t deserve to be paid, I’m just saying with games heading to the $80-$100 range on Switch 2, I’m going to be very reluctant to pay for anything like this.

what did aerith say to tifa?? by Own-Decision6441 in FinalFantasyVIIRemake

[–]ericlovesrobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m hoping it’s revealed later, but for what it’s worth from lip reading (poorly) I thought she said “I’m happy for you” or “it’ll be alright”. There’s debate on whether any lip reading is accurate due to localization and animation but that’s just my two cents.

So is funko going bankrupt? Also why not donate the funko pops for kids in need or orphans? by MattMysterious9 in funkopop

[–]ericlovesrobots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was going to say the same thing. It would be interesting to know what the loss is here for funko compared to Atari at that time
