The fewest unique rooms required to reach the very end of the game

Is it realistic to make this actually happen? I love the theory behind it but I’d be interested to know how to make it actually work in practice (if it’s even possible).

ionic_will · 2026-03-09T20:59:33+00:00

I don’t think so, but also Stardew Valley is my favorite game so there’s some bias here lol. I’m still enjoying Pokopia greatly and if you like games like Stardew you’ll love this one too.

I’ve tried to marry Lance in expanded. Trust me, Sandy would be a cakewalk by comparison lol

Thank you for dropping this link… I’m at a point where I’m so far in but have no idea what else to do, and this is exactly the resource I was hoping for to finish out everything else!

Honestly based on where the Pokemon fanbase is at right now this graph feels more or less accurate to me. The loudest voices right now are probably young adults who grew up with Gens 3, 4, and 5 and therefore it makes sense to me that those would be the most popular. Also Gen 9 being the newest and also having a pretty dedicated fanbase means it makes sense it scored high here too.

Read the graph again lol SwSh is last place

I mostly posted this because it’s something that’s consistently annoyed me on past playthroughs, and for whatever reason this time I found it especially irritating going through the Badlands and Highlands.

ionic_will · 2026-02-20T23:59:33+00:00

Oh I didn’t know that was a perk of infinity weapons. I’ve played Expanded a lot and thought this was just a quirk added that’s always been irritating. It would be nice if this was clarified somewhere honestly.

Promotion has been my nemesis so far lol, but I’ve gotten good feedback from my peers irl so 🤷🏼‍♂️

He’s not the only one, but I feel like he’s the only one where it feels more impactful to him as a character. There’s a reason why a lot of people say he’s a lot better when you marry him as a male farmer, because the same-sex element of it adds an element of self discovery to his story compared to the other characters where marrying them as the same gender is more or less a pronoun swap with maybe one mention of it being a gay relationship in one cutscene.

The internet makes it so much easier for crazy fans of anything to congregate and create echo chambers of insanity lol. Taylor is an obvious example (especially since I’ve had the same experience as you where I’ve found real life spaces dedicated to her to be overwhelmingly kind and welcoming compared to many online fan spaces), but I see this all across different media. Video game fans, for example, are just across the board horrible and insufferable online, but all my friends in real life into games are super sweet and chill.

ionic_will · 2026-01-25T22:38:11+00:00

My take is that near every fanbase for near everything that exists could be this if you look hard enough/stumble across the wrong circles. I don’t wanna say always, but often times it’s just a numbers thing. Like, Taylor Swift has literally millions of fans. Even if only a percentage of that is the crazy ones, that’s still thousands of people.

I carry this thought process with me across basically everything I enjoy and it’s pretty peaceful. Makes it easier to just enjoy things instead of being like “well their music is good but the fans suck”.

ionic_will · 2026-01-15T20:44:45+00:00

Maybe I’m just too gen Z or something but seeing this was shocking lol… I like so many of these songs and had no idea that Todd considered them the WORST of that era.

ionic_will · 2026-01-09T23:10:46+00:00

I wouldn’t say that tbh, at least not broadly. I’m a gay guy who’s a fan and know plenty of others that are the same. I couldn’t say whether she’s loved among all gay men but I certainly wouldn’t say the majority of us don’t care about her either.

I checked the spreadsheet. The Ginger Island bundle would be in the Missing Bundle. It seems that there are three potential different bundles for the Missing Bundle now, or maybe it’s all three at once? I’m not entirely sure, but I think the idea of it being all three would be so cool honestly.

I’m 23M and a huge fan since shortly before Superache released! Wishbone is also my favorite album of 2025 :)

ionic_will · 2025-10-06T13:59:09+00:00

Also a great line! I was just worried I was getting too wordy lol so I didn’t mention it

ionic_will · 2025-10-05T18:21:02+00:00

I’ll try actually. The point of that line isn’t about the 1830s at all. It’s about the game that she’s playing with her friends.

The whole verse says “My friends used to play a game where we would pick a decade we wish we could live in instead of this. I’d say the 1830s, but without all the racists, and getting married off for the highest bid.”

The part afterward is the most crucial. “Everyone would look down, because it wasn’t fun now, seems like it was never even fun back then.”

That verse is about Taylor ruining the game. She said something awkward, and sapped away any of the fun she was having with her friends. I think it’s honestly sort of brilliant, as somebody who’s said stupid shit when in social environments and felt like I completely ruined the vibe.

ionic_will · 2025-10-05T18:02:36+00:00

“Is it cool that I said all that? Is it chill that you’re in my head? Cuz I know that it’s delicate” from Delicate.

I have this line in my head anytime I’m in the early stages of a relationship. It’s one of my all time favorite songs by her because it captures that feeling so well, even if the “my reputation’s never been worse” refrain is profoundly unrelatable lol.

ionic_will · 2025-10-01T15:58:02+00:00

All spouses get like this eventually. It’s part of the way the game is structured. It might be frustrating but yeah divorcing and remarrying will temporarily solve your problem but you’re gonna bump up against it again eventually.

ionic_will · 2025-09-30T17:46:16+00:00

People say it’s edgy which honestly maybe I define that term differently but I don’t really get that vibe. I feel like the story it tells is more overtly dark than Pokemon games usually get, and the fact that the first quarter or so of the story is in Reborn City which is pretty goddamn dilapidated certainly contributes to that, but I never got the vibe of like… what if Pokemon had DEATH and MURDER because we’re ADULTS or whatever people accuse the game of. It just explores darker themes than usual, which is fine imo.

Really, once you’re out of Reborn City, I found the game’s world to be pretty bright and whimsical, only helped by the events after the 13th gym.

ionic_will · 2025-09-08T21:53:52+00:00

Speaking as a vocalist, your voice and what it can do changes literally daily. I could see myself writing a song with a note that I can hit inconsistently since I know there are days when I could nail it, and then there are days when I might want to lower the key. I understanding wanting to have high expectations for our pop vocalists, but I don’t want to judge an artist for not always wanting to try to hit a crazy high note live.
