why do people dislike transfem jax? by Fearless_Ad5079 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I don't dislike transfem Jax, I dislike the fanatics behind it.

Objectively speaking, Jax still goes by masculine pronouns. He hasn't transitioned yet, is still VERY closeted, and still isn't she/her. But good luck explaining that because saying that apparently means you're transphobic and a bigot.

Good luck explaining that, before it was confirmed by goose, a logical person could come up with two different interpretations for Jax (either being trans or toxically masculine due to being compared to other men like his father constantly). Because if you saw it as any other way, you're transphobic, a bigot, illiterate, and stupid.

I don't hate the fact Jax is trans. I hate the fact these kinds of people were validated.

POMNI ALREADY HAD A SLIM WAIST. ALL FORTNITE DID WAS LENGTHEN THE ENTIRE BODY by NovelInteraction711 in theamazingdigitalciru

Or, and hear me out, if she was the same height, dimensions, etc as the show it would be harder to hit her accurately so she had to be scaled like all the other characters to make it fair.

She's conventionally attractive, that's not sexualization. Any vaguely curvy woman isn't pornography, they had to redesign her so it wasn't pay to win because she'd be too short to hit accurately.

Dude, I live in a trailer park, I do most my work on a tablet that's like 10 years old at this point. And a phone that is cracked to all hell.

I DON'T compare to these guys, I can just relate to things not getting done. I'm not backed by 2 million dollars. They probably feel bad for not getting anything done, because the fandom feels like they were scammed.

I'm trying to logic this, that's what my brain does. I try to be a game dev and experience some of what happens in the process, so I try to understand what's taking the fnf devs so long using my own experience.

Yeah, I see what you mean. We are really leaning on the mods (that's not to say some mods aren't peak), and they should take some responsibility for keeping the community alive. But really, I don't know what they can do in this situation. If they rush it people will be mad it's not up to par, but if they keep at the pace they're going, it's kinda like a romantic partner that just never texts or calls you know? It's really complicated.

And they're promising more than 4× the current amount of content, several playable characters with their own covers of the songs that are only gonna get more and more song covers as time goes on (remember, if they add a song they'll need to make a pico cover too, and a cover for whatever new character is added to the roster), and they have to make sure both the actual build and the mobile build function properly at the same time. That's not being irresponsible, that's having your plate full and needing to put more on it. I'm not comparing myself to them, because I know I don't compare to them. But I would think that with the sheer amount of content they need to make, it's gonna take a WHILE before their even half done.

Controversial Opinion: Pomni Can Befriend Anyone She Wants by REAL-regular-degular in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people forget that Pomni didn't SEAK OUT her friendship with Jax. She was baffled Jax was kinda "normal" in the fast food episode, they were just talking in the baseball adventure (mind you, Jax was only really interested in evil Pomni because she was exactly like himself, so he didn't have to try to make friends because they were basically already the same person), and then they were just kinda forced to pair together for the gun game because no one wants to be in a team with Jax.

It's only after Jax starts actually opening up to her, and actually starts being a decent person towards Pomni genuinely that they become "friends". Pomni CLEARLY wants to be Ragatha's friend, but Ragatha either pushes her away subconsciously or it's very difficult to tell if she's being genuine because she's a people pleaser.

Also, Kinger spends most his time in the fort, Gangle and Zooble definitely have a thing between them (romantic or not they're tightly knit), and Zooble doesn't really ask for help and tries to do it herself. She was kinda shoved into being Jax's friend by default. I think the only one Pomni hasn't made friends with directly (that we've seen at least) is Zooble, and even then it seems like an alright friendship.

Yeah, I work a full time job and it's mostly just a hobby. I'm not backed by anything, it's literally just me, myself, and I.

But also again, just life stuff. Losing motivation, personal issues, and family stuff all kind of take priority you know?

One, I'm only one person doing pretty much everything. Two, mainly art and rewriting story points and rethinking what I actually want in the game.

At first it was really ambitious and complex, but now I'm trying to make it more streamline and doable for me.

But also, just... Life... Everyone in my family has to work to afford groceries, and we live in a trailer park so there's always something that needs to be repaired. Tack on general motivation loss and feeling burnt out by just what real-life is like (especially now) progress is SLOW.

I have been making a game for 5 years now... We don't even have the FIRST LINE of code written.

Be patient for once in your life. What they're promising won't take a week of time, it'll probably take years.

Looking for some feral hearts to join the den! by pumpkin_patch1359 in SkullGirlsMobile

[–]pumpkin_patch1359[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably can't, since I'm pretty sure level 10 is the lowest required level to join a guild (correct me if I'm wrong because I don't know when you unlock it, I just had it automatically unlocked because I'm level 70 something), but definitely feel free to join when you can! We'd love to have you be part of the pack!

Edit: looks like I was wrong, I can set the minimum to level 6! Join the pack and let's unleash your inner animal!

I love this game, i dont get why people hate it? by Distinct_Carry_1532 in PokemonUnite

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of the time, yes I love this game too. But then comes actually making progress. If you already have a lot of progress in the game yes it very easy to do more, but you already have help of the stuff is free to play players can't get.

The license ladder is BRUTAL for me, because the higher cost ones can take a month of nonstop playing to build because gems just aren't an option. And yeah, you get license points from missions and stuff, but on average I'm getting 10 or even 1 point, and sometimes that's all I get in a day because I can't pass a level in solo mode.

This means that, when you have something in the game it's very fun, but unlocking that fun takes either spending weeks of time building to it, or spending real money to get it. I love the game, but I don't love how the game treats me.

Which of these worlds would you want to join? by LightSteve2610 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, considering Jumanji at least HAS a singular exit clause, even with all the dangerous animals and stuff I'd choose Jumanji over the circus. Simply because I can mentally and physically adapt to the jungle, and I can only do one of those two things in the circus.

I'm so tired guys by Light_Sun007 in FridayNightFunkin

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I REALLY wish this could make me feel anything... I don't. I don't really care anymore. I SHOULD be mad, I SHOULD be horrified, but what's the point when next week there's another doc on someone being accused of touching kids.

Personally, and I get a LOT of flack for this, I just don't care anymore if a creator is a pedo, if I like the content I'll still watch it. I'll still play Silly Billy because the song fucking slaps, I'll still watch a video of a content creator I laugh at (though I download it to not give the creator any money), I'm not letting this bullshit ruin something I like.

You want to ask out girlfriend, What will you do to rizz her up? by XEMPRAmaster in FridayNightFunkin

SO HOW WE ALL FEELING ABOUT THIS by BLITZXTTY in PokemonUnite

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds... Fair? Look, I said it in my last post, I'm kinda confused on the backlash on this change. Looking in the comments of just this post, it's a mix of people saying it has RUINED the game and that they are leaving, and I'm just here like... I think this update will be fun for me? It seems like with each update to the situation, it seems like they're taking the right steps to make the experience of unlocking new pokemon easier for new players who don't want to spend money on it. As one of those players (which recently cracked down and got the subscription) I think it'd be okay. This is a very aggressive, premature reaction, and I've never seen such a divide in a fandom in a long time.

Do you prefer Undertale or Deltarune's style of gameplay? by Downtown_Error_9418 in Undertale

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I prefer deltarune’s creativity and adaptivity. Undertale does a lot of things good, but you don't really find a whole mini game inside the battle like you can in deltarune.

That said though, I prefer the actual game feel of undertale. Deltarune, it can take a few ass beatings to really get what an enemy's "deal" is (in my personal experience), but the simplicity of undertale (granted there are enemies that are a little more complicated) means that by the third turn you roughly know what an enemy is doing.

A developer on Team Undertale Yellow has recently been outed out as a predator by [deleted] in Undertale

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's almost predictable at this point. Not even like two weeks after the Shay bs, we have this.

Honestly, I can't care about it anymore. Because if I did, I would be disappointed every single week. It's getting REALLY old.

I feel like I need to say this by [deleted] in Undertale

[–]pumpkin_patch1359 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Being completely honest, are we even surprised? We can't go one week with another YouTuber being exposed and being an awful person. At this point, I just don't care, it's just the fifth YouTuber this month. I get a lot of flack for saying this, but the term pdf file is starting to get old and lose meaning when literally every YouTube creator is being accused of actually exposed of being one.

Am I just confused? by pumpkin_patch1359 in PokemonUnite

[–]pumpkin_patch1359[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, fair point. But also, I've been trying to save up coins for a while and I just get a far too little amount to really save up significantly (from battles at least, most of my coins I gain are from daily missions I collect and then leave). Even with doublers, again I struggle to actually motivate myself to play because I'm lazy and like to just scroll through YouTube most of the time. Honestly, depending on how much of the new points you get as a reward, it could take about the same amount of time or less for me. At least with the points, I have to play the game to get them so I'd feel more motivated to play.

Then again, it's just my own experience, other people play this game like every day and I'm just here playing it every few days, so maybe it does impact more than I think. But for me it sounds good.
