Same reaction every time people see stories like this. It's always about how insanely close we got to total destruction, and how magically lucky we were to avoid these close calls not once, twice, but over a dozen times.

If a quarter lands on its edge a dozen times in a row, that's not luck. There's magnets or something forcing it up. It's actually extremely normal and expected. It's only your ignorance that causes the perception of insane luck.

Plenty of punch, an unfortunate amount of beer (I suck at slap-cup) and a shot of tequila.

So assuming this was at a college party, you had about 2 drinks and a ton of sugar

There is 0 reason for Tien not to be in

If they could only put 15 or so characters then yes, he's too boring to include. But since he AND Yamcha are in, there's probably gonna be like 30.

Wow if they're actually adding Yamcha and Tien, who AREN'T they adding? Kid Buu, Hercule, Videl should definitely be in. Gotenks probably.

I don't think Strider belongs in the conversation but that's fine.

I kinda agree since it's so linear but I think that just makes it more like Fusion

there isn't really a Metroid formula

You're missing the point. You're right that there is just an expectation to copy Super Metroid, which is what people want when they say "metroidvania", but that's why that term is dumb and useless.

There IS a clear and strong 2D Metroid formula though, and it is in the feel and movement. It's the super snappy platforming and uninterrupting combat which makes simply moving around the world and trying to find secrets and exploits super fun and addictive. It's not a chore at all to run across the whole map. Castlevania doesn't have that (I guess SOTN kinda came close, but not enough to be part of the "metroidvania" name). Even Fusion which was super gated and intentionally gimped wall and bomb jumping still had that feel. That's why Ori and Strider immediately feel like 2D Metroid, but Axiom Verge doesn't really (although I heard it gets way better after the beginning).

listening to the 8-4 podcast and they call it the best controlling metroid game in the series

so it probably really does just come down to how you feel about the circle pad

Aren't they owned by Nintendo?

I just tried AM2R for about an hour and holy shit it's amazing. I'm not too jazzed about the metroid hunting structure with the hard gating but that's not their fault. All the modern improvements like the morph button and sucking in pickups with charge beam and particle effects and such are awesome. It doesn't feel like Nintendo at all, but it feels totally Metroid.

I was even able to sequence break already, getting the spider ball before bombs. It's inconsequential, but that kinda stuff is what makes 2D Metroid completely incomparable to other games in the genre.

Totally overanalyzing the song too. Watching the video you just see one of the most beautiful girls in the world pledging her undying loyalty to this hypothetical person who left her. She has a smug look that says "who are you kidding, you'll be back for my undying love" but part of me wants to yell at her and say "You're Mariah Carey! You deserve so much better than this! It's the 90s and you're the most beautiful woman alive seamlessly converging pop and R&B"

The person is a metaphor for show business

They do that in lots of the good episodes. But they consistently prove that they can just conjure up another dozen great one-off characters anytime they want.

The saving is pretty generous, you can always reset to a week ago. That being said, if you did a lot of stuff in that last week, it can be super painful to reset to a week ago, so keep that in mind.

If they actively interfere or otherwise sabotage productivity, they're seen as stupid.

Not at all. They're seen as frontline soldiers rolling up their sleeves to fix the hard issues.

If you're a manager in a meeting and there are no issues, you are rewarded for speaking up and creating an issue out of nowhere.
