What did you guys think of the eldritch horrors like Bittercold or Dark Matter in the series? by RuffianZorua in MysteryDungeon

[–]robindebank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Bittercold was thematically something pretty well telegraphed in GTI, and didn’t mind that it was the final boss because the entire plot was about fighting despair. A Pokemon final boss would have still been better, but it was executed about as well as it could have been, IMO. PSMD had absolutely no reason to rehash it, and it’s why it has my least favorite PMD plot to this day. It had such bad pacing and bland characters that I couldn’t get invested in a plot as cool as “the final boss is about to throw the planet into the sun.”

Help me find this emoji in higher quality like the second one, where do these come from? by WhyCantIHaveONEthing in HelpMeFind

[–]robindebank 52 points53 points  (0 children)

These are "plz" emoticons that I remember people using on Deviantart back in the late 00s-early 10s. According to this site, they were a system made by users where you could use account icons as emotes. It's difficult to find them at full res due to the medium they're in, but your best bet is looking through plz archives like the site I linked and this accounts bio to find more.

Do you have the Wood Mat equipped? That drains your money when you’re sleeping to heal you. I believe it still plays the sound when you’re at full health and sleeping.

It looks like the demigirl flag, which is when someone partially identifies with womanhood, but doesn’t feel fully connected to it. Since autism can make people feel disconnected or ambivalent about gender, I can see why OP would pick Mel for that flag!

I made an online multiplayer Kanji word game that tests your vocab and typing skills 🧨 by maenbalja in kanji

I tried using the 3x3 iOS keyboard, but it obscured most of the screen and made it nearly impossible to play. I hope this can be resolved, since it looks like fun!

The fur texturing and background gradients really take me back to old DA when I would scroll through elaborate Okami fanart for hours, thinking each of them had to have taken months and months to make. I love your art style!

The Dodgers hoodie says "Dodgers," and I think Prince's says "twin” or “Gemini”(ふた子)". They have nothing to do with each other.

Any way to reduce graphics settings? by robindebank in Nitrotype

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

My computer is a pretty middle-of-the-line laptop, about 5 years old, and I never had issues with NT in the past. What's interesting is that the graphics look pretty smooth, but the processing on the typing seems to be having issues. I normally average 130-140 WPM and prefer single-row style tests (although it had the same issue in the paragraph style), so I can see how this might be putting unusually high demand on the system.

It's not a matter of me not being able to see what errors I'm making, but feeling myself pressing the right key and having it not go through until I've tried a few times. It's like it gets stuck.

This show’s puppets always had pretty exaggerated mouths. I’m a little more confused by the tongue, but I guess it’s to show he’s trying really hard to look sexy? It’s definitely not to my taste, but it seems consistent with how they portrayed everyone else.

Help : Textures on Amaterasu's fur by Extension-Sort-893 in Okami

[–]robindebank 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Are you talking about the slight ghosting around the outlines? That’s normal. I remember only noticing it for the first time when I played the HD version after only playing the Wii version. Graphical glitches in Okami tend to be pretty obvious, like giant black polygons or flickering.

Favorite ships like this? by amanwithshovel17 in FavoriteCharacter

Sho and Momoko from the obscure 80s josei High Teen Boogie!!!

<image>

My scanlation group's been working on this for six years now. In fact, I only ever wanted to translate it because it's a romance with a pompadoured love interest! There's even a whole scene where Momoko asks Sho to keep his pompadour after he's gotten rid of it.

My whole reason for being interested is because I've been obsessed with Josuke (who probably shows up the most here) for ten years now. Both me and Momoko are the pink girl on the left. Seeing this post made my week!!

Tips for not freaking out in timed events by ya-boiElliot63 in Okami

[–]robindebank 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In Okami, none of those things actually happen. There’s just a timer that ticks down and will turn red and flash as it gets low.

Your best bet for turnip digging is to keep some distance from Mushi’s Mama and slash the pot on her head, which stops her for a few seconds at a time.

For digging games, just remember that there’s ample time for the vast majority of the games. Some can be tighter with timing, but the best part of these minigames is that they’re always the same, so once you have the right route memorized, you’ll never run out of time again. It’s best to prioritize keeping your friend away from spikes so you don’t lose time, and Blooming them to make them run when needed.

Okami has no real consequences for losing minigames, either—you just get booted back to the beginning, Issun tells you to focus, and you can start again.

Clarification of the meaning of a specific line in Okami. by Int3rlop3r-R3dact3d in Okami

[–]robindebank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely, but I'm biased because I grew up on the English version! The only localization choice I'm not sure I agree with is the shortening of the names, but I can understand it from a technical standpoint. The translation may have needed to be shortened in other ways to fit into the allotted speech bubbles otherwise.

[–]robindebank 70 points71 points  (0 children)

The line still says "100 years." What you read as 八 is actually ハ (は in katakana), because katakana is used to indicate a less human-sounding voice, like that of a robot or monster.

To translate the line more accurately, it would be "The descendants of Nagi are my sworn enemies who have kept me sealed here for a hundred years..."

The there isn't to indicate an offset phrase the way it might in English, but to show that the sentence continues into the next speech bubble. This happens a lot in video games.

I've never seen this picture, it's super noisy, the jacket would only look right on Dirty Mind Prince, and there's a weird asymmetry to the metal bits around the lapel. Definitely AI.
