Topic | Remember how deep in the closet Yosuke from Persona 4 was |
dotsdfe 02/12/20 12:32:16 AM #2 | There were datamined voice clips way back when that suggested that Yosuke was originally a romance option. So yeah, he was probably not intended to be straight. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 02/10/20 4:48:19 PM #40 | Strider102 posted... https://youtu.be/N8mm4iWVn14 Ahhh, that review is hilarious. I remember that one. The idea behind that game always looked super cool. It's a shame that it didn't pan out. Are there any similar ideas with more modern technology? I feel like it would be way more feasible these days. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.

Topic | When is it OK to have a villain with no backstory? |
dotsdfe 02/07/20 5:11:06 PM #16 | There are definitely times when having a villain be a pure enigma can be more intimidating than humanizing them, or even where being up against a faceless or totally undefined enemy in general can be scarier than something that's known. There's this fairly obscure movie called Don't Blink, in which people disappear from this resort when no one is looking at them directly. Well, --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.

Topic | Watching happy death day 2U |
dotsdfe 02/07/20 5:04:06 PM #17 | I want to see the second one some time. The first one was lowkey amazing, and hit a great balance of horror & comedy. Haven't gotten around to watching 2 yet, but I'd like to. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 02/03/20 6:12:54 AM #4 | https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/43k7z3/nationwide-fake-host-scam-on-airbnb I'm not gonna lie, the situation you described sounds remarkably similar to what I read in that article a while back. It might not be the same thing, but it came to mind right away. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | What's the most disappointing video game you've ever played? |
dotsdfe 02/03/20 4:12:57 AM #23 | Project x Zone. It looked like a super fun strategy game with a ton of awesome crossover characters. Turns out it's beyond boring to play. I could not finish it. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

Topic | How come people hate Fire Emblem Fates, but love Three Houses? |
dotsdfe 01/27/20 11:14:00 PM #13 | Fates has good gameplay but has absolutely nothing going for its plot, it literally didn't even try to establish lore (it's the only FE that takes place on an unknown continent, so fans mockingly call it "Fateslandia"), most of its characters are extremely flat, and it goes too hard on dating sim aspects and includes child characters for reasons that aren't justified in the plot and just feel embarrassingly tacked on (they literally throw the kids into magic portals where time moves faster and they just kind of happen to age up to the exact age that they need to be to fight in a war). TH is a great FE game. Not perfect overall, but it's definitely one of my favorite FEs and ranks near the top of my list. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | Playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses for the first time |
dotsdfe 01/27/20 8:03:07 PM #157 | I love Linhardt. I married him on my run, though he was the only gay male marriage option at the time. One more was added through a free update, and another is coming with the DLC in a few weeks, though. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | Were you ever bullied when you were in school? |
dotsdfe 01/27/20 12:41:43 AM #11 | XBoner posted... was it mostly verbal or physical bullying? did you ever stand up to them? 90% verbal, occasionally physical. Nah, I was (and still am) extremely quiet/reserved, so never really said anything. Eventually it kind of fell off, and by senior year, I was on good terms with most of the school. Not sure if people just chilled out over time or what, but I could at least talk with a lot of the school and nobody really bullied me or anything. A few former bullies actually friended me on Facebook and apologized a bit later on too. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 01/26/20 10:28:44 PM #126 | MachineJaipur posted... Some people you just can't recruit til after the time skip. I don't think that this is the case, unless there's someone with a really specific situation on a specific route. Some people will leave you temporarily at the timeskip and need to be re-recruited, such as And to answer TC's followup question, the seconds are almost always unrecruitable. Hubert & Dedue never leave their routes, and Hilda can only be taken on specific routes. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | Horsehair Worms are nightmare fuel (all the warnings) |
dotsdfe 01/23/20 12:16:01 AM #10 | I will say, initial horror aside, I do have some morbid fascination in the concept. It's a pretty ripe concept for a horror story, though I'd say that parasites like these and certain fungi have been influences in stuff like RE4 and TLoU. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.

Topic | Horsehair Worms are nightmare fuel (all the warnings) |
dotsdfe 01/23/20 12:04:01 AM #6 | I only skimmed the video, which was horrifying enough, but then I wiki'd it and saw that the thing compels the host to drown itself so that the worm can return to water. Ugggggghhhhhhhh, all of my nopes on this one. I should have stayed away. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | Aside from being an easy echo, why did Daisy deserve to be in Smash over Waluig |
dotsdfe 01/21/20 3:58:07 PM #10 | Daisy has been in mainline games too, as opposed to only spinoffs like Waluigi. Though, both deserve more on that front. They're both pretty damn popular by now, so they should both show up in a spare mainline game or two at some point. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 01/20/20 9:08:37 PM #10 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... I have no idea what EoE or tokens are. It's been a few seasons since I've watched Tokens are a new thing that I don't know much about, but supposedly they're a currency that can be traded or found, and the players can pool it together for stuff like shelter or food, and sometimes there are chances to buy idols and stuff with it. It sounds pretty weak to me. EoE is Edge of Extinction. There was a whole season about it for S38, and it wasn't great. Think Redemption Island but less bad. Everyone gets a choice to go there or not after getting voted out (and everyone went), and they stay there until the merge & the final 6 or so, where everyone on the island competes in a challenge and the winner gets back in the game. It didn't turn out great honestly, especially because (season 38 spoilers if you ever plan to watch that) --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 01/20/20 8:54:47 PM #7 | I can't wait for season 40. It's a shame it's kind of twist-heavy with EoE and the tokens, but just seeing a lot of the winners again is super hype. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

Topic | More FE in Smash is good. |
dotsdfe 01/16/20 5:33:54 PM #4 | I do think that it should have been Edelgard (and I wish it had been Claude), but TH deserved a rep. Similarly, Sword/Shield probably deserves a FP2 rep. They're both really big recent Nintendo releases, and I'm fine with them getting representation. It helps that Byleth looks unique. Yeah, they wield a sword, but it's mostly in whip form, and a lot of their moves use the relics anyway. I'd be annoyed if they went with some of the FE Smash staples (please no more down B counters, Sakurai), but they didn't, so I'm content. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.

dotsdfe 01/12/20 9:36:48 PM #16 | Jabodie posted... Oh yeah? Nice. What points to that? We're pretty overdue for a Direct in general, the last Smash DLC character is supposedly out soon, there's a mini-leak that points to a Direct soon (the next wave of Amiibos was put up for preorder super soon and they tend to announce those in Directs or in Smash stuff), and general Directs tend to be 1-2 weeks after Pokemon Directs. Most people are expecting a Direct either this week or next. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

Topic | Tales of Symphonia vs. Tales of the Abyss vs. Tales of Vesperia |
dotsdfe 01/10/20 7:52:04 PM #11 | Of those, I'd say Vesperia > Symphonia > Abyss, but all three are great. Vesperia has a good cast and phenomenal gameplay. Symphonia has a great cast and story, but its gameplay is a bit dated by now sadly. Abyss is kind of in the middle, with having a solid cast/story and solid but also a bit dated gameplay. I feel bad calling it the worst, because I really really enjoy it, but I think I'm more attached to the others. Overall for the series, I'd probably say Vesperia > Berseria > Xillia 2 > Xillia 1 > Hearts DS > Symphonia > Abyss > Innocence DS > Zestiria > Graces f > Legendia (though I only rented it for like a day and didn't get super far in at all, I just really disliked what I played of it) > Phantasia GBA > Tempest Haven't played the others. I like most of them, but Zestiria was highly flawed with some solid points in its favor like a great OST and an interesting world, Graces f had an atrocious cast/story and a solid gameplay system that was dragged down by everyone who wasn't Asbel being half-mage and wasting the battle system's potential, Legendia I barely touched but disliked, Phantasia GBA was a mess, and Tempest I only played a bit with my friend but barely functioned as a game. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest.

Topic | How are the Naruto Storm games? They 1-3 on sale for Switch |
dotsdfe 01/09/20 7:56:57 PM #10 | I bought 4 for like $15 on PS4 a while back. It's a fun mess-with-characters game to screw around with for a while. 4's roster is absolutely massive, and even as someone who hadn't kept up with Naruto in ages (stopped in filler hell in part 1, tried again with part 2 but didn't get super far into it), I had fun just seeing what everyone was like. Those games go crazy with their rosters. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

dotsdfe 01/09/20 7:50:14 PM #13 | I loved it. But yeah, I hear it falls off really hard after where season 1 ends. I'll still try subsequent seasons, but I've heard several times that it gets way worse. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |

Topic | What are some good examples of horror involving modern technology? |
dotsdfe 01/02/20 12:15:46 AM #13 | It sounds like I should check out Black Mirror. I've kind of been thinking of writing some horror stories, and I've somewhat considered trying to tackle more modern takes, but most of the examples I've seen haven't done this particularly well, so I was hoping to gather a few up. I'll look into the other suggestions too. Thanks for the input, everyone. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
Topic | What are some good examples of horror involving modern technology? |
dotsdfe 01/01/20 7:33:11 PM #1 | I feel like this type of story almost always ends up being really, really tacky. The only things that come to mind offhand are Unfriended (which was cheesy and bad), and that one recent movie about the app that predicts your death and then kills you (which I never saw, but it was pretty much universally panned, plus the plot summary made it sound really lame). I couldn't really think of an example that does it particularly well. Surely there are some movies/shows/stories in general out there that have gotten this right, right? --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. |
