There's nothing inherent about them to our species. A hundred years ago pink was the masculine color and blue the feminine.

| Topic | transience's video game topic 51: I got loyalty, got royalty inside my DNA Man |
| JonThePenguin 05/18/17 1:57:23 PM #62 | The Mana Sword posted... yeah I dunno. nothing I saw justifies why we're losing our characters and gears and stuff. I'll see what people say when they actually play it, but the impression I got from this presentation is that this should have just been a 3.0 patch or something. Well you're keeping your character. But the real reason is they're moving to a different engine and way of making things that's much easier than the old - from what I recall, the old development process required an overnight rebuild every time they wanted to so much as move a rock. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 05/18/17 1:29:54 PM #52 | I mean, there was nothing really wrong with the UI, so keeping that is fine. The big problems were in story presentation and lack of variety in how you get things, both of which were addressed to an extent in the expansions. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 05/17/17 8:44:54 PM #35 | Oh yeah, tomorrow's the gameplay reveal for Destiny 2. I'm prettt excited. They've got the director of Taken King in charge of this one, and that was the expansion that took the biggest steps in correcting errors the vanilla game made. Also I've put more hours into D1 than any game since...probably since I started having the disposable income to buy more games than I have time to play. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 05/16/17 10:36:48 PM #49 | LapisLazuli posted... Did it....come out? I downloaded it earlier, but I had to do it in a roundabout way. Had to search Phantom Dust in the Xbone store, which only brought up the multiplayer starter DLC at the time. Clicked that and I was able to find the game under the "works with" section down the page a bit. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

Mal meets Kaylee (while she's banging his mechanic) I seem to remember an audio commentary or some such where Jewel Staite said she really had been playing Kaylee as innocent as she'd seemed, until she got this script and realized there was some more kink going on there. Culminates in some really good lines down the road a ways. Makes me think of the "kinda gay" vampire Willow from the Wishverse episodes of Buffy, accidental foreshadowing (or in this case probably not so accidental on the writers' part). --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 05/16/17 2:00:44 PM #10 | Final Fantasy XI is fifteen years old today. To celebrate, anyone who subscribed in the past and migrated their data to a Square-Enix account can play free through the 29th, while people who've never played can get a two-week trial account with a max level of 50 and only vanilla areas available. Speaking as someone whose income makes it difficult to justify an MMO subscription (or two; would love to be playing XIV as well) this is awesome. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

That said, that shoots down two of the three most common speculations I've seen for these.

Ever since returning to the Child Era, the swordsman has lamented the fact that he was not remembered as a hero. This is the reason he passes down the proof of his courage and his secret techniques to the Link of this era, addressing him as "son." --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

GuessMyUserName posted...Something about WW Timeline being the branch of Link defeating Ganon which Link then leaves to return to his childhood and form the TP branch, so Link's spirit would have "left" the WW branch. No, Zelda stays behind when she sends Link back in time at the end of OoT. In any event, Hero's Shade is confirmed to be OoT Link so TP Link can't be his reincarnation. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 05/09/17 12:03:21 PM #438 | So I took up playing Pokémon TCG Online on my wife's iPad recently. Nothing too serious, just a bit of a time-waster when nothing else is going on. Had the most terrible luck getting energy draw the last couple games, but the one before my opponent did too. We say there for six turns with my Torkoal doing a no-damage burn attack because I couldn't get the energy for body slam while his Volcanion did a 20 damage attack because he couldn't get the energy for whatever his other attack was. Eventually my Singe won out and he conceded. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |
