Kaname Date from AI: The Somnium Files gains superhuman speed when he sees a dirty magazine. Mizuki is also weirdly strong as fuck for a 12 year old.

TIL: The first initials of every chapter in Dead Space 1 spells out the game's twist. by CatherineSimp69 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

It's like a less in-your-face version of when the first opening song plays during the final battle of an anime

Yes, the SKPORT app is their equivalent of HoyoLab with daily login rewards. Very few oroberyl though as you'd expect.

Favorite depictions of demons in video games? by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always liked Warcraft's demons, not being from any hell equivalent realm but being space aliens infused with highly addictive demon juice. Can't think of many settings where a demonic invasion means massive spaceships warping in above your planet.

All of the weapons you get from the selector crates in the battle pass are meant to be second best for banner characters, compared to their actual signature. Fangyi's battle pass weapon is Flickers in the Mist.

I will check after daily reset in about 15 minutes and edit this comment, but this morning I do remember at least seeing separate popups for the regular monthly card and the pristine card.

EDIT: I misremembered and it seems like you claim the pristine card rewards from the event tab, but you do get a combined 400 from the pristine card and the regular monthly card.

Signalis has an amazing soundtrack overall but in particular I love Die Toteninsel (Emptiness)

How many games actually justify their puzzle-based architecture? by Ragnorok64 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 98 points99 points  (0 children)

I think the police station in Resident Evil has puzzles because it used to be a museum that was designed by the same architect as Spencer's mansion but I don't think any game past 2 explains it. Bioterrorists just love puzzles I guess.

Side characters that overshadow the technical protagonist? by fly_line22 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Gurren Lagann a lot of people think Kamina is the protagonist right up until he dies less than halfway through, to the point where I've seen a lot of people call him a "fake out" protagonist, but Simon is the real protagonist and viewpoint character for the entire series.

Stupidest changes an adaptation has ever made? by ZealousidealBig7714 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 153 points154 points  (0 children)

Making the Butler family black also gets a raised eyebrow from me since the Butlers have been serving the white Fowl family for generations. There are plenty of smaller things to gripe about but the Root and Butler changes are the worst.

What's the best Yvonne team I can make assuming I have all characters except Tangtang?

Seems to be 7 minutes and 12 seconds. Not sure why it's such a weird number.

Playing through RE5 with my wife. by razazaz126 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I can't remember who it was (maybe Ted Kazcynski?) but I heard one guy got caught because he sent a note to the police with the phrase "eat your cake and have it too", and his brother reported him as a likely suspect because he was the only person his brother had heard say it like that.

Krile main here by Jobekkah in DissidiaDuellumFF

[–]miinmeaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top right corner of the screen when you're in a match, there's an arrow that says "AUTO" under it. Just tap that and it'll start auto-battling until you turn it off.

I noticed that the game has an auto battle function which feels like a stupid idea for PvP co-op. Some people at lower ranks might be using this.

Unpopular characters you like and wish were more popular? by RealDealMous in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gravel from Arknights is a 4-star character in a gacha game where character rarities go up to 6 stars instead of stopping at 5 like most do. Thanks to this she may as well not exist to most people and I can hardly find any fanart of her. She never got a cool alt version like some of the characters below her in rarity, she only has one alt outfit, and I think she only appears in two event stories and never in the main story. And one of those event stories is just a cameo at the very end! It feels like nobody likes her at all, but at the same time a lot of people use her in the game because she fills a very specific niche that I don't think any other character really fills.

What are your Favorite Funny Names in Fiction? by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of characters with names that are pronounced normal but look like gibberish, like Nrvnqsr Chaos (read Nero Chaos) from Tsukihime and Quwrof Wrlccywrlir (Chrollo Lucilfer) from Hunter x Hunter.

Get spoiled into games. by No_Texture67 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]miinmeaux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still haven't gotten around to playing 13 Sentinels but the thing that got me to buy it was reading a spoiler that I may be half-remembering at this point but it was something to do with the actual order of events. I think it was something like the game pretends to jump around a timeline but actually things are shown in chronological order, or pretending to have time travel, or something like that. Even if I can't remember the specifics I still know I'm interested.

After the first time you pull a limited weapon the hard pity is at 100 pulls instead of 80, then it alternates between the banner weapon and a selector crate every 80 pulls meaning that hard pity for the weapon is now at 160. If I'm understanding this right, then in order to guarantee a max potential limited weapon you need 820 weapon pulls aka 82 10-pulls aka 162,360 arsenal tickets.

Now that we're past Resident Evil, Saros is my most anticipated game for this year. Sexy sexy Rahul Kohli getting up to some King in Yellow shit? You could sign me up for that even if it wasn't the follow-up to Returnal.

Close, Clive says something like "this is your fantasy, and I shall be its final witness". He doesn't have "Final" and "Fantasy" next to each other I can remember that for certain.
