100 men vs 1 polar bear would be more of a debate.

One hundred is way too many for pretty much any scenario. Even if you dropped 100 unfit, unready NEETS in front of a bloodlusted gorilla, I doubt it has the energy to kill them all before they can eventually take it out.

The biggest problem with those is they always seem to fumble endgame stuff. It stops triggering monkey brain number go up endorphins when you get so high that numbers can't be represented. You have the ones with the reincarnation mechanics, but they generally don't provide anything interesting enough to justify starting over.

I don't understand how a haircut can make her look so horrible. I thought it was the whole character design, but she looks fine with her classic hair.

I feel like trending towards realism and mocap has definitely led to a good deal of uncanny valley models, the overuse of celebrity faces, and definitely some attempt to steer away from the oversexualization of the past, possibly veering towards overcorrection, but definitely not the weird culture war nonsense level of the terminally onlines. Id say the biggest problem is trending away from stylization, which other regions seem to embrace more.

Reset endings where nobody remembers anything. The worst ending, no different than saying everybody died and here's an unrelated world where nothing bad happened.

I'm sure it's in the playbook, but it would be weird to bother without some kind of major event like extensive arrests of opposition, trying to shut down a branch of government, etc.

Ignoring all the weird religious and racist overtones with this kind of stuff I'm just honestly perplexed why people think we are at some dangerous level when I feel we are overpopulated.

Replacement rates of local populations due to a lack of incentive/opportunity for younger couples to have kids are the main issue, so it's a country by country issue. The people in the OP are most likely going on about the white replacement nonsense though.

Christ, you know it's inevitable someone is going to be killed through this utter stupidity.

Yellow flashy are no different than "left turn yield on green" lights. So why need them?

Yield on green is for when there are two opposing green lights and one needs to be given right of way. Flashing yellow is for when there's an active flow of traffic, but you can turn left any time that there's a safe opening, same as turning right on red.

I wish more places had flashing yellow lights for left hand turns. There are so many places that'd help the flow of traffic. It's silly to need to wait an entire light cycle on a road where there are forty entrances to businesses where people are free to make left turns without lights or stop signs.

Unless it's an actual expansive plot like Blazblue, most fighting game plots are just set dressing, so trying to dictate a canon ending always seems weird when the status quo is changed up from game to game anyway. If they just want to change up the roster, they can leave the character out without needing a canon reason.

How would you even possibly verify that. Come on

If there's an email associated with it, that could verify it, but apparently the "proof" is that the user claimed to own Twitter in one of their unhinged posts.

The site would be improved by leaps and bounds if they just banned slurs outside of the toxic boards and actually moderated insane /pol/ nonsense. Sadly, they'd all probably take that as a challenge and wage war. It's such a weird combo of some of the worst people on the internet and some actually very wholesome conversations on extremely niche topics.

Is it going to likely be a complete overhaul that's not compatible with the existing mods? Vanilla will certainly sell enough to justify it, but I can't imagine people flocking over if they'd need to redo all mods from scratch.

I was pretty excited for it, but ended up losing interest after seeing that they made it easier for god knows what reason. I don't mind low stakes games, but they already had something perfectly functional with the original.

As long as the game marks it or has a marking system, its fun. If you have to remember each and every little side path on your own to backtrack, thats overly tedious.

I'm not convinced it's a scam, they're working on the game and it's definitely a thing. I think it's just gross mismanagement and feature creep.

I'd wager they're probably spending 20%-50% of it on the game, while using the rest to pay themselves stupidly high salaries/spending it on vanity stuff they can easily write off. The game is definitely being worked on, but there's little chance the current output equates to the funds put into it.

It's something that definitely should happen, but not under this shitshow of a government.

I'm curious on what exactly the gameplay loop is supposed to be. It's hard to see how you combine wall scaling, terrain destruction/underground traversal, and enemy combat into cohesive level design.

Imagine it was this.

God, the whole game grading thing is just a speculatory scam. Cards are bad enough with the 9.8s vs 10s shit, but at least the big names have decades of real experience. The gaming grading shit is too new to be putting out prices like that.

Wasnt that a few years ago? Either way, pretty bullshit with how advanced scanning has gotten.

Series shit the bed at 7 Quirks and never recovered after All the Powers was brought back into the picture. Hori isnt smart enough to write smart characters, so writing a character who should have hundreds or thousands of powers just devolves into dumb combos that amount to punch harder.

I don't particularly care for Mario Kart at all, but the open world stuff looks like it'd be a pretty fun podcast game. Sadly the 5-10 hours I'd get out of it is not worth $80, so probably won't get a chance to play it.

The increase to $2 was already too much, but $5 is crazy. It's not like there's even a good chance of winning the lowest prize. If that doesn't lose them money, I'd be surprised.

Guess Ill start exporting my list more regularly. Though the site has been total dogshit on the backend for years at the point, so it probably wont be a massive loss if it does crash. Maybe theyll get some paid staff to actually get through the entry approval backlog that goes back at least 6 years.

Seems like such a bizarre choice to spend R/D money on. Who actually wants to use a facecam on a 5FPS Nintendo Switch hangout? Who is actually going to take the time to set up the camera to play dumb looking Mario Party minigames?

Breakfast souffle was pretty good, but way too expensive.

I'd say it was pretty mid. Too much focus on features that nobody will actually use and not enough new exclusive games.

Pretty dumb to go so all in on generic enemies and animals when there are plenty of actual characters who have yet to be in Mario Kart. I guess they could be saving stuff for DLC in the future, if they plan on it being around as long as 8 lasted.

I'm curious if they've actually implemented the necessary functions to actually implement tariffs on a wide scale, or if it's going to be another shitshow when the de minimis exception is removed again. UPS/FedEx/DHL are one thing, but I cannot imagine USPS has the infrastructure in place with how underfunded they are.

Not until the Switch 1 is dead and buried. These cross generation gaps that are happening really make the successor not worth it to be an early adopter.

Isn't this a weekly rumor? I assume it's just mass media attempting to influence the administration by shitposting enough that the two have a real marital spat.

Pretty poor overall. Most of the new gimmicks are multiplayer focused, so completely irrelevant to me. I don't know why console launches have been so sparse with games the last few generations. They should be launching with multiple bangers, but they're instead relying on it being a Switch 1.5.

Hopefully they show off some actual games. All these gimmicks look like such a waste so far.

It's definitely hard to care about it at all. The decision to fall back on the old tropes of broke, suffering Spider-Man is just dumb, when the direction they had him going was just fine. He should have been the glue to hold the MCU together in the place of Stark. Shelving him was a poor choice.

If you enjoy it all the way through, its definitely worth watching at least the second movie. The movies are a retelling, but the second one has a much expanded final section. Cant really remember if the first one has anything special.

I've only seen a scattering of films and Loki S1, but the whole thing is just too disjointed. Despite the crossovers in some stuff, it doesn't have the feeling of a true shared universe anymore.

I can see them shafting the main storyline for Online again. Regardless of how the story is received, itll still probably be the highest grossing game ever.

There will almost certainly have to be at least a few, but no way GF is putting in the effort to make more than like 5 at most.

If the game does come out, I really hope theres some kind of deep dive on what happened with that development cycle. I feel like it has to be that the team fractured at some point because feature creep can only explain so much.

If it can trigger some monkey brain shit of haha number go up, sure, but thats pretty rare. Watching a small bar inch up battle after battle is more the antithesis of that.

They've definitely heavily fumbled on any sense of cohesion and connectivity by spreading things too wide. Curious to see if their Downey emergency button works for them.

It's definitely a game I've craved replaying again. Even if 95% are useless, collecting characters is cathartic and the kicking mechanic is just fun for some reason. I'd play the hell out of a remake with even more characters to collect.

I reject a timeline that has no Mean Bean Machine.

Pretty much always, unless it's a horrible, dry mess.

As long as it's not those stupid greetings they were trying at some places, I don't care as long as it can function.

It's not on the level of proper retribution, but it's definitely a situation that could have been avoided by doing what she needed to do. Definitely not justified in any capacity, but someone driven to the brink may simply go nuts like this.

Didn't he massacre like 80% of the world population, and the manga tried to pass it off like a good thing?

From the perspective of the them vs us, it was kind of just the inevitable end point for both races. Peace was impossible without the ending deus ex. From the perspective of the characters, it was absolute fate set in stone that Erin both wanted to do and didn't want to do due to his warped mindset from having too many perspectives at once and being schizo. The characters who know understand and forgive him.
