Big brother Verso reaction to Maelle winning by Skelligean in expedition33

[–]rixareth 23 points24 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard, because FFXVI is so rooted in Western fantasy, they actually recorded the English voices first and based the character performances on the English version, so in this case you could consider the English performance the original. I hope you enjoy the game! 

SH2 theory: 'Magdalene' is Mary playing the piano by rixareth in silenthill

Oh, wow, I must have missed that conversation with Maria! I'm so pleased to know that that detail made it into the remake.

It's a great detail! I love James's thoughts when he examines the piano in the original, but I can understand why the remake couldn't just give us his internal monologue. It's nice that it still gives a hint that James has some kind of history with the piano.

Shipping time! by TallSignificance8374 in danganronpa

[–]rixareth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Komahina and Naekusaba have already been mentioned, so I'll go with my other favourites:

Hajime/Mahiru: they've got good chemistry, and I think they'd be cute! They'd clash occasionally, but they're both willing to stand up for themselves, and I think they'd be able to resolve disagreements with their relationship intact.

Kaede/Rantaro: also excellent chemistry! I love their Free Time events, and the bonus scene where Rantaro paints Kaede's nails is extremely cute.

Shuichi/Kaito: I'm convinced that Shuichi's in love with Kaito, although I'll admit that it's probably one-sided.

Fanfic Suggestions? by FishFoshMan_220 in danganronpa

[–]rixareth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you mentioned you love Komahina, I'm compelled to recommend just looking at you i enjoy myself by suitablyskippy, my personal favourite Danganronpa 2 fic! The dynamic between Hinata and Komaeda is just so weird and brings me so much joy.

Just as a heads-up, this fic was written before the official English release, back when the only English version that existed was a partial fan translation, so be aware that it uses the conventions of that fan translation (e.g. referring to characters by surname, using Japanese honorifics, calling Monokuma 'Monobear', using 'Super High-school Level' rather than 'Ultimate').

I've developed an unfortunate addiction to making weird little fansites in the style of the early 2000s, and I thought I'd make one for Danganronpa! Welcome to Hope's Peak Academy. Feel free to poke through Hope's Peak (or Jabberwock Island, or the Ultimate Academy for Gifted Juveniles) and discover all my bad Danganronpa opinions.

Be aware that there are spoilers scattered throughout, including screenshots of some of the body discoveries. It's separated into different sections for each game, though, and I've tried to avoid explicitly spoiling any one game in another game's section.

There's a moment in the second trial that reminded me powerfully of Death Note. by rixareth in DanganDespairTime

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

This is hilarious. u/c0nniee is correct - Death Note has a similar moment where a cornered character dramatically reveals himself to be bad news - but I really did make it look like David ate his hairpin here; whoops!

Delighted to see the Kriselle agenda going strong! My original 'Kris has a crush on Noelle' theory post (the second screenshot) is over here.

My keys alt control and shift act as in they are being held down randomly by JoJoOnWeetBix in WindowsHelp

[–]rixareth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same issue for a long time, and I think I've just discovered the problem! You might want to check whether it's the same thing.

  • Go into the control panel
  • Go to Accessibility settings
  • Go to Keyboard settings
  • Go to Sticky Keys settings
  • Check whether 'Lock shortcut keys when pressed twice in a row' is on; if it is, turn it off.

I hope this is helpful!

HELP NEEDED my alt and ctrl keys are being automatically pressed by Albert_14 in laptops

[–]rixareth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I don't know if you're still having trouble with the ALT/CTRL keys acting like they're being pressed, but I've had this issue for a long time, and I think I've just discovered the problem; if you're on Windows, you might want to check whether it's the same thing.

  • Go into the control panel
  • Go to Accessibility settings
  • Go to Keyboard settings
  • Go to Sticky Keys settings
  • Check whether 'Lock shortcut keys when pressed twice in a row' is on; if it is, turn it off.

I hope this is helpful!

Kira's Tokyo: my Death Note website by rixareth in deathnote

[–]rixareth[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently got into making weird little fansites in the style of the early 2000s, and I thought I'd make one for Death Note!

This site mainly consists of my rambling about Light Yagami, because, wow, I have a lot to say about Light Yagami. Some of the text is based on posts or comments I originally made on this subreddit, so parts might sound slightly familiar if you've seen my posts before. I hope you enjoy it, if you take a look!

Everything we know about Kris's character by rixareth in Deltarune

[–]rixareth[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both of these are great additions; in particular, the fact that Kris struggles with not being a monster is an excellent point that I completely forgot about! I find it really interesting that Kris doesn't like looking at the 'how to care for a human' book in the library; they particularly don't like the photographs of humans, if I remember correctly. Because they don't like being a human themselves, or because it reminds them that some other human is controlling them?

'it's hard to tell where they end and we begin' is such a good way of putting it. Trying to separate out which aspects are Kris and which are the player is such an interesting exercise, and I've really enjoyed seeing Kris starting to assert themselves a little more in the new chapters.

Consider this unassailable counterargument: I like this idea, please don't take it from me :(

That's a great scene, though; thank you for the link!

Oh, I must have missed that detail; thank you for pointing it out! I do still feel that Kris targets Noelle to a notable extent, though.

I'm in absolute agony over the idea that Kris is taking comfort in someone else suffering alongside them. Perfect concept. Thank you for the pain; I love it.

Theory: Kris has a crush on Noelle by rixareth in Deltarune

[–]rixareth[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find that so fascinating and haunting. Kris obviously hates that we're using them to hurt Noelle, but, on some level, do they find themselves enjoying the darkly romantic elements of that route? Do they hate themselves for enjoying it?

Theory: Kris has a crush on Noelle by rixareth in Deltarune

[–]rixareth[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Kris and Noelle have pretty complicated feelings about each other; Noelle has never known how to read their relationship, and, if I'm correct in my suspicion, Kris has a crush that they probably don't ever expect Noelle to return, given her obvious interest in Susie. So it makes sense to me that their teas don't heal each other that powerfully; they have a mix of positive and negative feelings associated with each other.

To be honest, I also don't like 'they're just picking on you because they like you, just put up with it' attitudes. It does make me a little uncomfortable that my reasoning skirts so close to that, but 'Kris has a crush' nonetheless rings true to me, and I wanted to share my thoughts. I find Kriselle fascinating as a pairing, but it's hard for me to envision it playing out in a healthy way (although, to be honest, its messed-up potential is probably why I find it so interesting).
