BOURDAIN (voiceover): I found myself surrounded by discarded objects. An empty soda can, a dead battery. Life becomes death. But death can become life. The simmering pot with its spicy aroma in front of me is proof. BOURDAIN: What's in this dish? ME: Pikmin BOURDAIN: Pikmin. Oh man that's good.

SRW Y DLC store page reveals the 5 playable units and the two missing ones from the PV were, hilariously, an upgrade for ChuChu and Elan Should've Been A Secret In The Base game. I would love to say that I feel vindicated in my low expectations and my explicit prediction of Filling A Gap, but, alas.

Talking about villains joining your side in SRW and trying to pin down what the absolute wildest one is. It has to be Yazan and Jerid in V, right? Most SRW villains joins are predicated on, like, them already being someone who was half-persuaded in their show or Could Have Been Better, but... man

SRW Y again when the expansion hits tomorrow and it's so funny they came up with a gameplay excuse to not include guys. "Oh but isn't Assist just like the strategists from the 3DS games" Strategists let noncombatants have little a gameplay as a treat, Assists are Sir Not Appearing In This Game

I think in the rush to dunk to FromSoft loreheads (who to be fair, deserve it) a lot of people forget that inference exists. Like, yes, there are a lot of videos making up a lot of shit, but just because it isn't explicitly stated in words doesn't mean it's not there!

DALE COOPER: [runs down the stairs too fast because he really needs to pee and trips and rolls to the bottom while pissing his pants] WINDOM EARLE: [500 miles away] (smiling) Knight takes Rook... Check.

Watching the most recent Naked Gun again, and I still like it! I do wish it had gone a little harder, there's a bunch of bits where I'm like "if this was Zuckers that would've been sillier" and it feels like a little undercut. Also the last third feels wonky but, yknow, 20s Movie

I forgot One Piece says "next stop, Fishman Island" after Enies Lobby, what a detour They aim for Shabondy, get caught by Thriller Bark, reach Shabondy, get split up, Luffy does Amazon Lily, Impel Down, and MARINEFORD, timeskip, return to Shabondy, then FINALLY the actual Fishman Island arc

Pointedly not examining how Super Robot Wars' implementation of Ideon always makes the optimal mode of play to throw the Ideon into danger so it can suffer in order to make it better at killing.

if this is how much hardware costs then like traditional games are dead dead. it’s not a difficult storm that can be weathered it is simply The End. don’t cry because it’s over smile because it happened type shit

The idea of having older Super Robot Wars coming out in English officially is inconceivable. I never would have believed it was possible! I am genuinely not joking where if they pivoted entirely to remastering everything it would actually be better than them making new games at this point.
