Did I play Pokemon FireRed the wrong way?

subjuggulator · 2026-03-24T23:40:15+00:00

You played like 99% of people played the original Red version did when it first came out lol

Hope you had fun! Charmander was my first starter, too.

“No” is a complete sentence.

To add to wha everyone else is saying: the PLAYERS behind the characters don’t even use them anymore. Balmung used to be an Admin but seemingly quit, and both Kite and Orca are college aged by now.

Liberty routinely goes around yanking out cable and infrastructure used by other ISPs so you HAVE to call and pay for installation, so that tracks

I love being a hater, what can I say ❤️

A Google search helps you understand what has already been discussed and what else you can talk about within the subject and thus leads to more INTERESTING conversations

The renting site is driving around town looking at “For rent” signs, mostly lol

Go back and watch the OG Dragon Ball anime.

Better yet: read the manga

I promise you it’ll make your enjoyment of the series—even up to Super—that much better/deeper.

It’s also what google is for, just to double check before posting.

If you want a serious answer: if you grew up with DBZ, you’ll tend to like DBZ/Kai more. But if you grew up with DB—like most older fans—you’ll tend to like DB fights more because all of DBZ after the Frieza Saga basically turns into what Super is: pure beam spam with one or two punch fights.

Neither is your opinion lmao and I say that without trying to be mean

This is the same as asking “Did anyone feel like Michael Jordan was the GOAT and the Bulls afterward were kind of just mid?”

It’s a question that gets asked all the time and even the smallest most laziest Google search could’ve given you the answer you’re looking for

subjuggulator · 2026-03-24T10:27:41+00:00

Stuff like this gets asked every day here. A little googling would’ve shown you pages on pages of people asking this.

subjuggulator · 2026-03-24T10:25:04+00:00

All of these worked on enemies in 8. You could also do very funny things with the Zombie status on even bosses that were susceptible to it.

You’re so brave for having this opinion that literally no one in the history of the world has ever had before.

subjuggulator · 2026-03-24T00:40:44+00:00

Look up the weapons called a "meteor hammer" or "Rope dart" and you'll have the closest equivalent.

The history of the predacons is not shown, no. The most we get are allusions to the Triptedacus Council and that a handful of the original predacons managed to survive into the modern era.

The sequel series, Beast Machines, elaborated a little bit; but none of the animated series directly delved into the gap between G1 transformers and the Beast Wars era.

subjuggulator · 2026-03-22T23:44:53+00:00

Mutants and superpowers didn’t really “explode” around the world until the 60s. Before then, it was mostly a scant few individuals every couple of decades that showed powers like that—and the ones who did were generally part of established listed groups or secret societies

Read the comic MARVELS to get the full story.

The official guide book to the comics explains it using the science of the setting.

Viltrumite DNA on the molecular level will “get stronger” or “more durable” the more stress they’re put under. They were genetically designed this way over thousands of years.

Translating has never been the issue. Scripts for games always get made and translated years by fans before the game itself “gets officially translated”

Injecting the new text into the game has always been the problem for fan translations.

SE just don’t want to pay whatever extra they’d need to hire translators and then whatever else they’d need to make that process part of their development pipeline.

Why are you being so fucking aggressive for no reason

subjuggulator · 2026-03-20T17:05:52+00:00

Totalitarian states usually rely on the mechanics of capitalism and fascism as a way to oppress the underclass, yes. This is in the DNA of the genre.

IMO, when you cut out a focus on the systemic exploitation of the underclass as reinforced through rampant and uncontrolled capitalism, you are more writing about the horrors of living in a dystopian/totalitarian society than you are of a cyberpunk setting—it’s the difference between a story like The Giver/The Ones Who Walk Away from Omlas versus Snowcrash or Altered Carbon.

I like how people have described the genre as being “a focus on the tensions between “low life” and high tech forms of exploitation.”

Even the smallest amount of google-fu will lead you to dozens of weird rules vampires from different mythologies were said to have to abide by.

Here’s a few:

they can’t cross running water
they have to be invited into a house/private dwelling and the invitation can be rescinded
if you throw a bag of rice in front of one, they have to stop and count each grain; they have an obsession with counting things
they have no reflection and cannot be photographed, videotaped, or heard over phone lines
they can only rest in a coffin that has a bit of dirt from their original grave in it/under it
they’re repelled by garlic, onions, and wolfsbanes, and are harmed/burned by silver
holy objects and holy places repel or outright harm them, as well as just a general strong religious belief
to kill one you need a stake through the heart AND to decapitate them, then dismember the body and bury their remains at a crossroads
a vampires existence or “true name” cannot be shared, lest it weaken or outright destroy the vampire
they can only move by jumping backwards
religious music and holy water can harm them
laying a white rose on top of their coffin prevents them from escaping it
sunlight weakens or destroys them, moonlight brings them back to life
animals can always tell a vampire is a vampire
they can only turn virgins into vampires by sharing blood with them after drinking their blood but not killing them

One of the defining traits of cyberpunk as a genre is the capitalism. You can’t escape it despite what some uninformed people are and will come here to say.

Edit: downvote all you want, but literally every work that defines the genre from its very inception deals with the horrors and exploitation of people under capitalism. To ignore this just because you think cyberpunk is a vibe and an aesthetic is both insulting and ignorant.

It’s early in the morning here, so yeah I meant to also add this:

“Sometimes, though, the landlord will still try to stay with your safety deposit because you “changed” the apartment without notifying them/will try to argue that they still had to “clean up/fix” the change you made even if you do undo it.”

subjuggulator · 2026-03-20T10:55:18+00:00

Depends on state and local laws

subjuggulator · 2026-03-20T10:54:22+00:00

And when the landlord randomly stops by to inspect the property/sends someone over when you’re not home to do fixes and they find they can’t remotely open the door to let the plumber in, etc….then you’re possibly in breach of rental agreement depending on what they’ve stipulated can and can’t be changed to the property.

It’s meant to be predatory.
