The part how nothing of what you said was in any way a response to what I said.


First time playing - for the story.
Later playthroughs - for liking the gameplay system.

Games need something to entice people, to stay long enough to really get to understand and like the game. In part the Metroidvanias accomplish this by having a story.

Nowadays with the randomizers even more interesting runs are possible.

Which is why you list it included on the pricetag and only show the sales tax amount on the receipts.

Many people are trained to believe that the number on the tag is the full price.

The labels will always exist as it's how we process reality, so the only thing you can do is change the significance in public perception. If you deny reality, you gain the label of "lunatic".


I will admit, what I was mainly referring to (from personal experience), has been much more accepted in recent years than transgenderism.

In retro-respect, once one's label has been publicly accepted, it is easy to work on acceptance for all. While in the middle of figuring out that label for oneself, anything else I would imagine is much more difficult.

It is not sequence breaking when the randomizer changes the sequence.

Fake Flippers and Dark Rooms without Lamp are still a sequence break in the randomizer and are something I would not recommend one to do if not speedrunning seeds.

Labels aren't made up to oppress people, they exist to identify differences, if you have a label you don't like, the world has percieved something about you you don't like, suck it up and move on.


They can still have an effect on people, especially if that label means the bearer is treated differently than they would have been otherwise.

You can equip spirits as well to give you an edge in the battle.

Not against something this stacked. Trying it with and without spirits that claim to explicitly help, make no difference in when the unblockable moves become 1-hit knock outs.

Second time I face an Incineroar in the game and again it is one that for some inexplicable reason starts with a Final Smash available and the ability to launch me further. So either I get knocked off-screen by the Final Smash or get hit by that ring summoning move while trying to dodge it...

Such brilliant game design...

Student: This is my name
Teacher: No it's not I'm calling you the name I want

I'm fine with firing that teacher. That's really not an appropriate way to treat a student (or anyone, really, and it's pretty disturbing how many people think they're taking some sort of moral high ground by acting that way), and that means he shouldn't be working as a teacher.


It is how a cousin of my mom found out he was adopted.

nahnahnahanaha... it's not a Super Metroid randomizer or a Link to the Past randomizer

It's both! Like you can find the Ice Rod in Norfair, or the Morph Ball in Hera's Tower


Exactly, and since the first transition to Zelda can be reached without any Metroid items, meaning without the Morphball, there are many locations where it could be found, with the game still being completable without glitches.

Apparently the morph ball isn't an "essential item".


Only guaranteed "essential" things are a weapon in standard Zelda mode, Uncle will always have one and the boots always being in sanctuary in glitch Zelda mode.

Everything else enters the randomizer and should end up somewhere you can get it.

How does the Super Metroid one work? Does it just randomize item placements? Because that seems like it could be unbeatable in a lot of cases.


The maker put a lot of time in making a logic algorithm, deciding the placement of items. Every seed should be beatable without glitches, unless you uncheck that safety...

I've heard that analogy and know that it's mostly true, though especially true in a feminized society. In a traditional patriarchy it doesn't hold as much weight, that's probably fair to say.
