missingno
You lost me at the first panel.
I’m not seeing a link. Missingno.'s sprite is just the graphics decompression routine attempting to parse data from elsewhere in the ROM due to a wrong pointer, this obviously can’t be concept art for that sprite. The idea that they might’ve considered making it canon in later generations is far too unlikely as well, we know they hated that this glitch got found and never ever ever would’ve wanted to acknowledge it.
The article’s conjecture is just “it’s blocky and it has writing on it, and if you squint really hard, you could pretend writing is like glitchy pixels.” Too much of a stretch.
I’ve been holding onto a pet conspiracy theory that BW2 was a last-minute change from Gray, loose ends and plot holes felt too rushed. Curious if the leaked source code will corroborate this.
I didn’t ignore what you said, I responded by saying I’m not thrilled about the DNC agenda. It’s all too little too slowly, without addressing underlying structural issues with capitalism. Did you need me to quote each line individually in order to say that?
What I don’t like is that even when the question is explicitly “Regardless of how bad the other side is, what’s actually good about the DNC?” you are incapable of not pivoting that question back to talking about how bad the other guys are. We know, but that wasn’t the question.
What I don’t like is that I can’t even say “I’m not thrilled about the DNC agenda” without having all kinds of accusations hurled in my face.
I didn’t feel the need to go over the DNC point-by-point. I said the Dem agenda is what I’m not thrilled about.
Do I have to go point-by-point before I can ask why you felt the need to bring up the Republicans and even Jill Stein at all when it’s clear that wasn’t the question being asked? We all know they’re bad, but the fact that it seems like the only way to talk about the DNC is to keep reminding us that they’re not the other guys, you were explicitly asked to actually say what’s good about Kamala without doing that.
what’s on offer is simply the Dem agenda with a younger change of guard
See, that’s what I’m not thrilled about.
You want a party that works for the rich and corporations, blows up the budgets recklessly, and thinks the low and middle classes are a resource to be used and drained: Republicans.
While we are on this spicy topic today, someone please remind me, what did Jill Stein do?
You’re only arguing the “I’d vote for a ham sandwich to keep the GOP from power” side. You don’t need to argue that part, we all know this, and it isn’t what the person you’re replying to was asking.
No one even said anything about Jill Stein here, bringing her up now feels like a very bad faith argument.
- 1 - …I respect the historical importance of this game.
- 2 - Actually, dual-wielding shields and attacking yourself to grind evasion is peak game design.
- 3 - Beta for FF5. Shame about that final dungeon.
- 4 - First game that actually holds up.
- 5 - Peak.
- 6 - I liked this game up until I found out that I was supposed to be grinding three distinct parties the whole time.
- 7 - I went into this expecting the first 3D installment to be another example of historically important but poorly aged. Was pleasantly surprised by how well it holds up.
- 8 - I went into this knowing it’s the weird one. I was the sicko that liked 2, but I still couldn’t get through it.
- 9 - Bought it alongside 8, when I dropped 8 I never got around to this. I will eventually… maybe…
- 10 - Perfects the classic formula while still feeling sufficiently modernized. Uh, for some definition of modern…
- 12 - Hated hated hated the combat. Painfully tedious to take manual control, automation is too primitive. And I don’t want to automate the game away, I want to play it!
Even DRM-free, all digital purchases are still just a license, legally speaking.
Pragmatically speaking, they can’t forcibly take the bits off my hard drive. But it also bears pointing out that these days most games on Steam don’t bother enabling Steamworks DRM either.
Anyone have a Wayback Machine link to it?
