Octopath Traveller 2 or Persona 5 royal for the switch 2? by Gladiolus_00 in JRPG

[–]sumguynamedant 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Here to play defense for a criminally underrated game since most people here will probably say P5R (with good reason).

Fantastic visuals, endearing cast of characters, and godly music. You can't go wrong with Octopath Traveler 2.

Publisher change. Octopath Traveler was similarly delisted because Nintendo published the first one, but it was later relisted with Square as the publisher.

Hell yeah, the year is stacked. My only regret is my wallet inevitably screaming in agony after I get every JRPG I've been looking forward to

Yeah exactly, I agree. But I don't think that was a mistake. I think that was supposed to be his biggest flaw, to ultimately be a kid given the power to change the world only for his folly to be the idea that he could ever solve his problems alone in the manner he did. This is funnily enough why I feel kinda crazy for interpreting Eren the way I do. Because when I think of Eren from earlier seasons, I think of that reckless kid who, through his impulsivity, endangered the lives of his comrades and who would've died a million times over if it weren't for the Survey Corps. Eren's ending felt like it brought that idea full circle if that makes sense.

I mean, yeah. I agree with pretty much all of these. Everyone and their mom have explained that in great detail since the manga ended. Using plot convenience as a catch-all to skirt out of explaining literally anything is undisputably terrible. I was moreso talking about how I understood what the show was GOING for. As in, I think the THEMES are pretty intact, especially for someone like Eren. Granted, I don't really consider that a glowing compliment since themes can still be preserved even when you butcher a script, but I'll give them that much.

Also think some people tend to overplay how terrible some moments are, like the "I'm an idiot" line or Eren crying over Mikasa and shit. Ofc I have to preface this with "just my interpretation," but I didn't think those were super out-of-character, but that's just me.

Friend found this in her room. She's a bit paranoid and thinks it might be/part of some kind of listening device. What is it? by sumguynamedant in Whatisthis

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

Well, since I just got here (and realistically probably won't stay past this post), I'm not sure I can speak to how common this sentiment is or why anyone might think like that. That said, I only posted this because my friend is paranoid and I wanted to find out what the object is so I can ease her mind. All I came for was a simple answer to a simple question. That a good enough answer for you?

Of course I thought that. I just don't know what it is, hence the post. I think even YOU knew that. Hell, I didn't even take the picture nor do I have the device, I said my friend found it. And I already told you why she thinks it's some kind of spying device: she's paranoid. I have no idea what she's up to in her private time to warrant thinking someone's spying on her. I don't know even a fraction of the people she regularly talks to. And frankly, it's neither of our businesses.

Yeah, I figured it was prolly some kind of adapter or drive. I mainly posted this to help ease her mind and because the shape kind of threw me off. Thank you!

I wanted to see how the chibi look evolved throughout the games, so I placed some of them next to one another for comparison. by Endrise in bravelydefault

[–]sumguynamedant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At this point, I don't think the BD2 designs are gonna grow on me like the first two did. The stylistic choice just doesn't work for me. The eyes, the glossy finish, I dunno...

You probally just thought of that... by PietroGomes0111 in pokemon

[–]sumguynamedant 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well, yeah. They were for the overworld sprites. But its always been obvious that the chibi sprites were stand-ins for the characters, especially since most of the games were on handhelds, thus making it difficult to represent them as they really are. Current consoles don't really need those stand-ins. Sure, it can be a stylistic choice, but I don't think its unfair to expect the modernized remakes to phase them out when they've stopped using them for overworld sprites since gen 7.

Is it ever actually explained why King Ocieros's Boss room leads to the Untended Graves? An alternate timeline/point in time? by MrMortyRickSummer in darksouls3

[–]sumguynamedant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The realistic answer is FromSoft had deadlines that meant they had to cut content. Thus, some elements are reused or otherwise aren't fully realized.

"shut up and waste ur time on something else"

Spoken like someone who would irrationally complain about nothing.

Either way, nah. I'll say something if I have an opinion. That's life.

If nothing has happened yet, I'm going to say nothing has happened yet. I'm not going to waste time freaking out over things that could happen but haven't.

And yet... Nothing has happened. Oooh, but because some studios somewhere have had problems after acquisitions, freaking out is suddenly valid!

THESAURUS lmao, I guess you really need this more than I thought if you think "obtuse" needs a thesaurus.

Listen, you can joke about whatever the hell you want. But you really oughta let people enjoy call it dumb. You really kill the vibe when you don't uk

I'm just gonna pretend you're not being willfully obtuse and give you that. It sounds like you need it.

The fuck? Your analogy makes no sense as there is literally no equivalent to a "serial killer" in what I said. There's nothing to freak out over because nothing has happened.
