@marshballs_ Given that Mother 3 feels like it's poking fun at the audience for wanting continuity between the games (Lucas never quite getting a bat, the villain being a nostalgic manchild who literally has a shrine to Mother 2) it wouldn't surprise me if this is intentional by Itoi
@CH4R10T_TV It's so good. the idea that Nemik is gonna die is super signposted, and you can imagine how a dumber/schmaltzier show would handle it, but then what they actually did with it is perfect
@noahgould19@TheYard P1= You are the one initiating the awkward encounter (you're the one who's stinky/you're the one showing someone a long video). P2=you're the recipient
@Gamechamp3k Do you have some other USB device plugged in that could be misinterpreted as a game controller? I had a footpedal cause this problem for years before I unplugged it
@Nyxsol64 @Onilink000066@Dyneeoh@thegrayfruit You get the keys in-game. There are areas in the game that are explicitly designed to teach you a piece of information to open locks elsewhere. It's just that it's not a physical upgrade on your ship and you technically could have done it all along.
@Nyxsol64 @Dyneeoh@thegrayfruit It's an Epiphany game, a Metroidvania where instead of needing physical upgrades to access new areas, the upgrades are knowledge-based. A veteran player can boot it up and beat it in a single loop; they know everything. People don't want to spoil because knowledge = upgrades
@rumblewish@ARBITERFAN@stranglercore@firagawalkwthme There's nothing else to it than the "dumb white racists think they're more native than the literal Native American". the line "he passes for half Mexican" is just saying "Some people think he's Mexican by mistake", making it funnier to reiterate that he's not "homegrown"
@rumblewish@ARBITERFAN@stranglercore@firagawalkwthme the deliberate joke in the scene is that they consider a "native son" to be a fully American-born white person like the members of the club, which makes it funny that they don't trust a guy who is literally more native to the land than they are
@AsterWalkerMan@schumisnoopy It's one of the most important scenes in the entire series. It happens immediately after Bobby sees Laura and we hear Twin Peaks music for the first time in 4 episodes. Wally Brando and Truman's patient exasperation with him is Light returning to a world of oppressive Darkness
@NorthernIion_LP@confusionm8trix one of these days we will get him to play runescape because this is a pretty standard restricted account grind in that game. and not like, skillful or anything, probably less attentive than the coin flipping game. maybe the ultimate yapping game
@quintcan@kleeposting An enduring theme of the game is that even at the end of all things, in a dead world where there is no hope that things will ever get better, even when everything seems pointless and lost, there can still be Wonder. It is still possible to bask in awe at the New
@GenealogyJuden@keewa@ewangibbs You didn't build the juice press, you bought it or inherited from somebody else. We are not talking about genius inventors creating a tool and then leasing it to employees, we are talking about landlords inheriting land and profiting from ownership rather than work
@GenealogyJuden@keewa@ewangibbs private ownership of the means of production. some people make money from owning things. they profit by exploiting labor (paying workers less than the value they produce)
@CabanaDrives2@candyassets Who's Lila? is a short recent release that's pretty clearly inspired by The Return and it's very good. The devs of 1000xRESIST are also clearly Lynch superfans
