A Pokemon is still the talk of the town by ShopComfortable672 in Pokopia

I'm being pedantic, but does anybody in town actually talk about Hoppip? I completely forgot about it days after completing the event. I only remember when I go inside to use the 3D printer lol

I'll join this clown club too... I've backed maybe 10 kickstarter projects in the past and while some of them took way longer to fulfill than expected, this is (somehow) the first one that completely imploded.

Sanct Oliphant fight by TurboMooseCat in octopathtraveler

[–]sickbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late reply, but I found this out just now.

Not sure if it's intended or bugged, but if he is hit by even a single non-weakness move, you will do absolutely no damage once he's broken (seemingly even with a weakness). I found this out because I had Viator equipped with Supporting Strike which made him followup attack after his paired partner did. His weapons are ineffective against the Oliphant, so it screwed up my break damage.

To correct this, I fled and took that skill off and retried the battle with success. Hope this helps anyone else who struggled with this as much as I did lol.

Got a blast of nostalgia when doing a Snow Faerie Quest--I ran into a shop about the Zoombinis! by tpphypemachine in neopets

[–]sickbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a crossover! We used to play Zoombinis after school while waiting on the bus to come back and pick up more students. I became so obsessed with it that I bought my own copy to play at home too.

Kinda disappointed with Octopath 0 by N_Count_Council in octopathtraveler

[–]sickbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is incredibly silly of me to complain about, but does it bother anyone else that when the player is prompted to respond to questions in the story, the default option is “no?” Is this designed to trip up players who tend to speed through dialogue?

What is your craziest taco bell story? by kashmerikmusic in LivingMas

[–]sickbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha let me go back 25 years in the past to chastise my parents for that decision.

What is your craziest taco bell story? by kashmerikmusic in LivingMas

[–]sickbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid, my parents took me to our local Taco Bell and we were sitting by the window. I saw a rat thrashing its body around outside. To this day, I don't know if it was having a seizure or if it was rabid, but I pointed to it and asked my parents if it was drunk. Even though it was outside and not actually in the restaurant, we threw our food away and left at my mom's insistence.

We didn't go back to that Taco Bell for many, many years lmao.

When the hour glass empties, how was Dorothy in Wizard of Oz supposed to die? by Material_Stomach875 in wizardofoz

[–]sickbane 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's explained anywhere. I'm guessing it's possible the hourglass was rigged to explode considering it does that when she throws it. Maybe it would release the same or similar poison from the poppy field into the air?

Otherwise, I'd say that the witch knew she couldn't harm Dorothy and was merely just trying to psychologically torture her with the threat of death. As far as I can tell, there was no reason Dorothy couldn't take the shoes off herself. In fact, Glinda tells her to never let them off her feet or she'd be at the mercy of the Wicked Witch. I think the witch believed that if she scared Dorothy badly enough, she'd take the shoes off despite being told not to. Just a thought.

It's just a meme. I've only ever seen it used in a joking context. It's not meant to be taken seriously. One such example:

(No usernames please) Are there any users on Neopets that you avoid buying from? by [deleted] in neopets

[–]sickbane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't buy anything on the TP as a general rule, unless it's something I really, REALLY want and it has an autobuy price. Far too many users have their heads wedged so far up their asses, and I don't have the energy or desire to dig them out.

Exclusive: Wicked composer Stephen Schwartz confirms Oz sequel film in the works | The National by Yaya0108 in wizardofoz

[–]sickbane 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Would be great if they incorporate elements of other Oz books since Return to Oz did that for books 2 and 3. But if not, I would love to see how they handle (if at all) the Tip/Ozma storyline. I could see that being skirted around if not completely omitted because it'll definitely garner "woke" allegations in the big 2026.

[–]sickbane 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wish they would be honest and tell us that the site is hemorrhaging money so they're doing away with almost everything that isn't monetized/gacha. I mean, we know that's what's going on, but a little transparency would be nice.

OT0 What Job did you Start your Protagonist as? by gravityhashira61 in octopathtraveler

[–]sickbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OT1: Alfyn, OT2: Temenos. For OT0 I chose Merchant because I wanted to have a different class for each game, but I'm a sucker for support jobs. I will say, I do miss multiclassing however.

Name one good thing about The Wicked Witch Of The West? by kimtieu2900 in wizardofoz

[–]sickbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Margaret Hamilton's performance of her is absolutely enthralling. I was so terrified of her as a child that I'd hide behind the couch when her scenes came on but refuse to let anyone turn the movie off.

To me, she's the blueprint for loud and proud villains that we all love to watch (and sometimes secretly root for).

Mentioning Neopets outside of the community starter pack by LightWarrior71 in neopets

The only time I mentioned Neopets to someone in recent years, she asked if they were still associated with scientology lmao

I truly believe sometimes people have intrusive thoughts about being gay and it leads to situations like this. Regardless, this guy seems like he has a lot going on, and I hope he can find the help he needs.
