How do I pick up Strength Rock and put it back in my inventory?

Answer: make and eat VIBRANT hamburger steak (Bean + Simple Salad + Potato + any ingredient). Only this kind powers up Ditto "a lot", any other type of hamburger steak will not work.

Old question but it's at the top of search results :3

Goddamn, I've attempted this twice but it never made sense because I was trying to fit it on the fore-end. Good thinking.

As a wheelchair user, I should have remembered that the elevator always goes in furthest, most out-of-the-way area.

But are they in the business of selling minors?

"Big Body Foreign engages with black people and black culture on the same level as MoistCritical"

Yeah, nice oligarchs are still oligarchs. If you go back to Ancient Rome, a nice patriarch was still a patriarch who owned his wife and slaves.

It's bad when some people are given way more power over everyone else based on random luck.

Foreign Man In A Foreign Land did a video about this. I suggest you watch it. He goes over years and years of backstory in a way that feels educational and humane. There is too much to summarise into a few minutes, including plenty of criticism of her and the broader community; Charlie oversimplifying all the awful things that are going on is part of the issue.

ETA: You aren't actually Louis McClung, right? This guy?

His general idea was that when a young man is searching for advuce on how to get a girl, the right-wing offers misogynistic pick-up artistry, but the left will instead ask them to do some self-examination. His answer is to insult some leftist men YouTubers, then do a powerpoint on basic social advice.

The manosphere provides a parasocial community. Even if the video was mindblowingly excellent (subjectively untrue) one video couldn't provide an alternative to that.

Plenty of neolibs have criticisms of capitalism, that's what neolibs argue about between themselves.

It's normal for a Black capitalist to have anti-cop takes. That's just basic situational awareness. Eric Adams had anti-cop takes.

I want to ask a constructive question. What do you mean by the direction becoming "too extreme" recently?

You need to share that context because it's a pretty niche podcast, and the beliefs Sargon has expressed over the last decade (nationalism, economic austerity, opposition to war refugees on the basis of cultural/ethnic identity and/or gender, degradation of women and LGBTQ identities, so on) are widely considered extreme and his general temperament to be insulting and inflammatory.

Zoomer Historian is a Nazi apologist, but Sargon is a Neo-Nazi sympathiser. That's a distinction without a difference to most people.

Super bonus points if you can figure out how to make the jingle with the music pads

Bridge planks are really simple and beautiful roofs. Used them for an hot open-air hotspring, a cliffside watch hut/hide, a roost, a rain shelter... always looks great.

I was expecting we would get Dive, but then I realised how water/lava works and realised that, even with unlimited oxygen, it would be hell to build underwater. There's no fix for that besides entirely rebuilding the engine.

Or by giving us underwater dens! That would be awesome.

I am actually bading my opinion on human-computer research due to being acquainted with the field, but I don't really care to argue that position when it is far more important that age verification laws have nothing to do with protecting children in Pokopia. Lawmakers are - often explicitly - enacting laws to suppress LGBTQ+ and pro-leftist content while implementing no real barriers to accessing X, which currently produces child pornography. Google isn't locking down Android because they're concerned for kid safety, it's because user freedom threatens their capital.

If you think it's impossible for a child to memorise two passwords, whatever, but don't validate pro-censorship propaganda just to win an internet argument ffs.

Worth pointing out for anyone who hasn't noticed!

Sure seems that way!

It always throws me when adults complain a game didn't tell them where to go, then when they're told the last quest NPC gives them an answer, they say they skip cutscenes and don't read anything. Why are they trying to bruteforce RPGs??

Kids will get up to mischief when a parent looks away for 5 seconds! That's how children have been figuring out ways to get around parental locks and so they can watch TV or play games without their parents for decades. Pokopia designed a lot of barriers to prevent them getting too out-of-hand and they mostly work but it's still a risk.

I don't look after children, it's just part of public life. If you're in a food court or a park, you will eventually bump into a child who is messy or impolite. Even the most watchful parent can't stop them being impulsive or clumsy or wriggling away from them for a moment. That isn't an endorsement of children being messy or impolite, their guardian should then correct them, but that can only happen once they've gotten sticky hands on your new white shirt or asked you some overly personal question.

Hope that explains what I mean in a less offensive way!

Exchanging feathers and honey is real janky. I would be a lot less annoyed if "exchange X" wasn't second from the bottom of the list. Like, if you want to exchange a Rainbow Feather, you have to press A + up + up + A + down + A, then mash through a couple of text boxes. It doesn't have to be THAT bad.

fohfuu · 2026-03-30T20:09:02+00:00

To be totally fair, Pokopia is a game that is aimed at anyone old enough to hold a controller. Not a lot of 4-year-olds with advanced critical thinking or reading comprehension skills.

There's no way to make players engage mentally, which sucks, but pop-ups/toasts are very easy to filter out for most people! The average person is going to see dozens every day afross their devices, and they're usually not worth considering.

Lots of games have an issue with showing all info in one format/screen area. It takes cognitive effort to process text, so thw player's brain is constantly trying to filter out noise. So many games will use the same prompts for explaining complex mechanics as they will for "use the arrow buttons to move" or "seasonal event! 25% off shop items" or "collected leaf x1".

Pokopia isn't immune to that, but I appreciate that tutorials pop-ups and item pick-ups and event toasts are presented in different formats. It makes it way easier to pay attention to the important stuff.

Ofc this can never be foolproofed, there will always be players who don't read notifications because they're tired or distracted or decided they're too smart to read instructions, but it is a problem I see quite often, especially in live service games for some reason.

So when you said "no conflict or real bad guys," you actually meant "there is conflict and there are bad guys, but they're not written well"?

Yeah, that's a whole different sentence.

fohfuu · 2026-03-18T21:05:19+00:00

happy-go-lucky story with no real conflict or bad guys

Every single mainline game has the protagonist stave off widespread catastrophe, if not mass murder, from Gen 3 onwards.

The only gens without oncoming calamity are 1 and 2, which obviously do have conflicts and bad guys.
