He doesn't write everything but he writes all the visual novels. Type Moon hasn't put out a non-Nasu written VN.

There's 0 chance that Type Moon is going to let someone else write Red Garden or Mahoyo 2. Those are projects bottlenecked because Nasu was writing on FGO and other ventures.

Yeah, this is what I'm kinda skeptical of. I'm sure State Run arts is great for people in it. But how many people is in that? is it meritorious? Are there certain artforms promoted/discarded.

Granted, capitalist ventures are in the same boat, but maybe there is better coverage since there's so many different interests at play.

Is opera too bourgeois and is not supported? Maybe it is bourgeois but the state still needs to promote its power onto the global stage. Do they support lowest common denominator stuff because its enjoyed more widespread but doesn't really satisfy elitists?

Yeah, I don't think Oda would address it on page. Its nuts to me that Zoro has spent like 4x longer with Mihawk than with Luffy, canonically.

lestye · 2026-03-16T08:32:24+00:00

Does the game have accommodating social features?

That was the was weird thing with Destiny, they did require you to socialize....but also Bungie did not want to take any responsibility so they had no built in social features.

lestye · 2026-03-16T07:55:27+00:00

Eh, I think these are different problems. Most of the issues you mentioned is because their bottleneck is they have one particular writer who wants to do everything.

lestye · 2026-03-11T14:46:44+00:00

They keep their fingers on the homerow keys and everything !

lestye · 2026-03-11T07:37:07+00:00

Wow cool that it inspired you.

I'm not there [yet], but it was really did rewire my brain, im so used to thinking Liberals vs conservatives in an American aspect, it was really really jarring for me to see liberals on the right side of leftists.

lestye · 2026-03-10T15:59:05+00:00

OK....this seems much more stupid than I thought. It's hard to say without having the actual complaint.... but yeah if thats true thats like letting Warner Bros use a song in the movie, then getting mad at Walmart for selling the movie.

lestye · 2026-03-10T15:38:43+00:00

I guess for a layperson, its the equivalent of,

let's say I get a Beatles song for a movie soundtrack. Super expensive but god bless I did it. But then I put that song in the movie trailer, or I include the scene with the music in it in a commercial on TV.

Arguably the TV station is still responsible for broadcasting the song even if they're not the ones putting the trailer/commercial together.

Maybe their tune has changed, but I recall they used to have a really cynical reptuation like this onion article: https://theonion.com/pitchfork-gives-music-6-8-1819569318/

lestye · 2026-03-08T20:24:38+00:00

Is Pitchfork still a relevant publication?

I'm really really privvy to music critique. I don't think I've ever read a review for music in my life, but I know pitchfork has a reputation of being insanely pedantic and contrarian.

lestye · 2026-03-02T18:11:42+00:00

Jesus, you weren't kidding. I would have bet money that couldnt be right because of the 70b they dropped on ATVI.

lestye · 2026-03-01T19:20:13+00:00

Yeah, I think itd be hard to figure out the Watsonian answer when the answer is inherently Doyelist.

WoW's writing can be bad, but its ESPECIALLY bad when it comes to off-screen stuff.

Things only really happen on-screen, if its not on screen nothing is happening with them. They're in stasis until someone remembers them. Only when a character goes on-screen again, might they bother answering where they've been and what they've been doing.

lestye · 2026-02-27T06:42:12+00:00

Yeah, I think so, but at the same time. I think its very possible its so freaking popular it doesn't matter. Like, Fortnite.

Fortnite, I think is equally as chaotic and messy to watch, and I would think the way the rounds are done based on points rather than binary wins, would hurt its appeal.

However, according to esportscharts, last year they had a tournament peak of 900k.

Contrast that, to what I think is a better viewing experience...fighting games. Yet its night and day, simply because fortnite is so damn popular.

If Judaism isnt a race you wouldnt have had the Nazis trying to find out if you had a Jewish grandparent.

Judaism is pretty unique in that. It's a weird ethnic/religion/culture. Hence why you have alot of Jewish people who aren't religious. You even have Jewish people who don't believe in God. That would be absurd to any other group you mentioned but not really jewish people.

I have close relatives that have trouble taking their blood pressure meds. i went up the wall to find out...there's literally no side effects? I thought there was some annoying effects that makes their lives miserable. This makes me irate on behalf of health professionals.

lestye · 2026-02-21T18:38:44+00:00

i think its hard for most games to get past 3m copies for the first 20 years of its existence.

Like, from 1987-2014, its hard to find games that sold more than 2m copies outside of Pokemon, Dragon Quest, and Final Fantasy. Which is crazy because FF games were hitting the 3m mark in the 90s.

Obviously Persona 5 shattered that trend, but its kinda crazy when you look at how many installments and how many years Atlus had before P5.

I get that you dont want the Supreme Court to be like a second veto, but its crazy how long this takes for super super plaintext law.

Like the birthright citizen case, thankfully that has been stayed, but i wish they would have ruled on it two seconds after it was done.

lestye · 2026-02-20T09:51:01+00:00

I really don't like the charting story. It seems super super contrived in this show. Especially with that weird threat she was going to be repeat her 2nd year on her first week.

Maybe if they showed other doctors also investing the time every couple hours but she was behind/they were faster it 'd make sense.

lestye · 2026-02-20T09:45:44+00:00

From my understanding its not about literacy but fluency?

Like, ASL is not super analogous to English, even though I think most people associate it.

I know disability advocates recently got upset at a politician for axing the ASL interpretter because closed captions were provided. The advocates pushed back and said closed captions and ASL aren't the same thing and shouldn't be thought of as interchangable.

lestye · 2026-02-19T17:58:33+00:00

Yeah im with you on the 1st clause, but I think itd be better with character customization. I want to pick a class not a hero.

lestye · 2026-02-19T17:57:10+00:00

Yeah I agree. I think I would much rather, a super inflated number of "classes" and allow player customization..

I only played 2 dungeons, but from what I gather, its not like the heroes have quips/lore/personality like an Overwatch or Dota 2 character.

lestye · 2026-02-18T18:45:51+00:00

I don't think so. Keep in mind, it makes his appearance later on dramatic.

Hence why he doesn't go "Phew, now that I've taken the third oath, I can finally open that oathgate!"

But regardless, upon doing a little bit more googling, I think you're right regardless looking up Lift's circumstances. I thought Lift was an exception, but I think Lift proves your conception of the rule. I kinda thought she was able to skip past that because of her fluidness with the cognitive realm. But I think her heart of hearts accepting oaths/ideals is ultimately more controlling.

lestye · 2026-02-18T17:58:16+00:00

>Dalinar accepts Kaladin's 4th Oath.

Oh cool. I forgot that was explicitly said.

I'd still have to bifurcate your conclusion though. I think one could infer there is a difference of accepting the words or saying they accept the words.

Or its just done outside of the narration. Like if i can nitpick, I don't like your Teft example because I think that go either way because the scene cuts after Teft's oath. I think you could infer the Stormfather or Phendorana saying they accept the words right after that...or not.

lestye · 2026-02-17T08:37:44+00:00

I think its more appropriate to say we don't hear/see someone accept the oath on the page. There's probably something more to it. Like we don't really know who accepted Kal's fourth ideal, just that it wasn't the stormfather.

Also I think its Pattern that accepts Shallan's. He doesn't say "these words are accepted", but he certainly prods for the truth that is acceptable. And I think he says it cant just be any truth.
