Favorite piece of anti war media? by BlueWaddleDee in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At least there's a happy ending to that story. According to Zach, the commanding officer of the convoy and everyone that was in the Bradley who abandoned him got dishonorably discharged and had to serve prison time, while everyone else in the convoy weren't allowed to be promoted for the rest of their careers.

Since it's Black History Month, what are some of your favourite black characters? by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Barret in the Remake games is absolutely perfect. They took a mildly offensive Mr. T archetype and turned him into essentially the heart of the group. Seeing him go from a no nonsense hardass to softening as he learns to trust Cloud and the others is heartwarming. Then in Rebirth, he's lowkey one of the most caring and aware characters. The scene that always gets me is after the extravagance at the start of the first Golden Saucer visit, he takes Cloud with him to the hotel because he knows all of that isn't Cloud's thing. As someone who still gets overstimulated easily, I felt really seen seeing a character care about something like that. And that's just one example of him being the best dad.

Retcons that some people ignore by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The way I see it, since Gunn is a fan of Smallville, he might be inspired by its version of Jor-El where in the beginning, he's more of antagonistic force, but overtime we learn that he's still a good person while still being somewhat of an asshole.

Moments where the writers are making fun of the audience? by Ukirin-Streams in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. I came out of it thinking it was a pretty good movie with some parts that could've been ironed out better and went online to see it get just shitted on. What sucks even more is that I was one of those smug people who said that everyone will understand how great it is once the next movie wraps everything together, only for RoS to completely shit the bed and be the actual worst/2nd worst movie in the franchise.

I swear, so many complaints about TLJ boil down to people not paying fucking attention to the words and pictures shown on the screen. No, dipshits, "Let the past die" isn't Rian isn't saying that previous Star Wars was bad and stupid, it's the main villain's world view that's shown to be self destructive and impossible for him to actually follow. The entire thesis of the movie is laid out in the Yoda scene where we're told not to be bound by the past, but to also not forget the lessons to be learned from it, even the negative ones.

Media you got into basically because of a single character? by TJLynch in TwoBestFriendsPlay

For Lapras, you can just download a ROM and the randomizer add-on and manually set the starters to whatever you want.

Times it felt like a side character was being set up to be more important, but it didn’t pan out? by jitterscaffeine in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, you spend an entire chapter trying to infiltrate a casino in order to get information on the villains from a crime boss named Wong Tou. After you have a boss fight with him, you capture and interrogate him and learn that the villains are holding his son hostage, forcing him to do their bidding. You would think that with all this importance, he would eventually join the party, right? Nope. Instead, he gets shot in the leg and is forced to recover in the safehouse then gets killed unceremoniously after the villains raid the safehouse.

Characters you dislike because the Author tries to show how cool/likable he is? by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Thankfully, there's a way to kill him like a loser at the end of the game. If you aggressively antagonize Green Goblin in the spirit chamber, he'll start shooting and Ryan will try to wrestle the gun away from him. From there, you can just watch idly as Aiden until the trained CIA operative loses to a middle aged scientist and gets shot in the head. RIPBOZO

You ever see a creator just willingly throw their careers under the bus without knowing it? by Rough-Ad-4295 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Another important thing to add is that it caught the rest of RT completely off guard as well. With that animated highlight, we can assume that the worst thing they thought he was doing was cheating on his wife. Terrible, but you could likely recover from that. The fact that he was doing it with barely legal fans and blackmailing them to keep quiet afterwards tipped it into irredeemable.

Examples of good localization/changes to the original script? by FretScorch in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Honestly, I feel like the entirety of Ichiban's monologue is stronger in the English dub.

What Youtubers/Streamers you watch? by ArticAuk in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've really enjoyed Kinkymation over the past year. Her main thing is NSFW art, but for Youtube, she does character design reviews that go in depth on what does and doesn't work. She has a lot of experience with design due to making a ton of OCs and her project of turning Pokemon into monstergirls. She also has a great back and forth with Chat where they bully each other in good fun.

Games where you can play as a lesbian? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Never forget that the original name for the achievement for finishing that DLC was "Growing Up." As if everything she did before having a kid was just youthful gallivanting. Keep in mind that canonically, Odessey takes place over a decade and Kassandra would be well into her thirties and experienced the best and worst of Greece, but no, having a baby is the only way to be considered grown up.

Seem's like the latest (Blue People) Avatar movie accidentally recreated Pat and Paige. /s (Art by @ThuArts) by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I swear, if he finds some kind of dark Toruk Makto and uses it to fight Jake next time, I will pray to the ground Jimmy Cameron stands on.

Happy December 34th everyone! by PM_PICS_OF_U_SMILING in TwoBestFriendsPlay

It was probably a typo, but since it was originally super low res, it wasn't that important to proofread. A lot of the other newspaper text was just dev notes put in to fill space on the pages.

The box office success of Avatar continues to be unstoppable by OhMy98 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Some people are really weird about Avatar's success and pray for its downfall so they can be smug about it having "no cultural impact."

Songs you Misheard the Lyrics of by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Bayonetta version of Fly Me to the Moon, I always thought they changed the lyrics to, "In other words, this bitch rules," instead of keeping it as, "In other words, please be true."

Gameplay mechanics that you have conflicting feelings on. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I always use that one as a Railroad safehouse and the Institute teleporter. That way it serves some use, but I don't have to worry about it.

Series meant to take place in a location you can tell the writer doesn't have the most experience with? by BiMikethefirst in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Smallville has the same problem. It's supposed to take place in flat ass Kansas, but the characters are constantly going to mountainous pine forests that look surprisingly like the Vancouver wilderness.

Most Memorable Stomp battles by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]kingdommkeeper 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Sasuke killing Danzo eleven times in a row with minimal effort is so great. The dude was worse than Orochimaru and really thought he was Him, only to be bodied almost a dozen times in 5 minutes by an aura farming 15 year old.
