@Nutguy2100 @viralaffection what if the law sucks

@viralaffection Law is civilization

I do not understand the mindset of a person who sees the law as a personal matter to uphold

@neytirisa the stolen journals tho

how it feels to read these quotes at the beginning of every dune chapter

@robkroese @MartyMart1068 @ChrisExpTheNews also you cant predict other prescient beings. thats why edric was so important for paul’s antagonists in messiah. its like a blind spot for them

@MartyMart1068 @ChrisExpTheNews I was trying to think what the limitation on prescience was

Herbert uses all sorts of limitations like this to add drama: shields are powerful but they attract sandworms; atomics are powerful but they mean annihilation; the Sardukar are powerful but the Emperor can't use them without revealing his hand

@ChrisApple19591 @LegoKingo delta force is one of the most retarded movies ive ever seen

Chuck Norris jokes are pretty fascinating bc they started as a way of making fun of him (the same way you'd make fun of a Steven Seagal movie where he's an invincible badass with no flaws) but over time it just became "this guy is genuinely badass" bc no one watched his movies

@TES_735_ @butleriano what type of harem do you think they were talking about

@butleriano You knew what a harem was at age 8?

it’s so cool how gamers’ only exposure to humanity is video games. eight year old me went “cool, a harem adventure” when i got to Gerudo Desert but there are now millions of grown adults who have never read a book or watched a Bugs Bunny cartoon for whom that is a shock.

@aGuyOnMyPhone @RobertSecundus 👍 my only god is Shai Hulud

@ch55808 @RobertSecundus And it’s useful to know cause people fuck with that stuff all the time. Every boxed set of Narnia puts them out of release order! It’s a legit question, I don’t care if you don’t think the non-Herbert books lack the mandate of God

why would anyone wonder where to start? Book 1?? obviously??? DUNE. Dune, the first novel in the Dune series, is where you start Dune. The question people actually have is where you should STOP.

@creaturemiaow @Rainbows_24_7 @sainimatic @_starridge sounds like you’re a bitch

@Rainbows_24_7 @sainimatic @_starridge sounds like a set of rules to follow to make your art look like everything else so some pretentious mfs can call it good

i hate when people go "i dont know color theory i just pick colors that look nice" THAT IS COLOR THEORY!!!! COLOR THEORY ISN'T A SET OF RULES IT'S JUST AN EXPLANATION OF HOW COLORS INTERACT

@s1othlovechunk @HMBohemond i recommend reading dune

@HMBohemond Yes, dune has more imagination but star wars was a much better story, and movies are stories, which is why the star wars trilogy will always be better than dune...

I love Star Wars, and I mean no ill will towards it by saying this... Star Wars is vastly inferior to Dune as a setting. Dune is the epitome of nuanced, to the point even the author missed out on it for a time. Star Wars is very black and white, and while that's not a mark against it Star Wars is at it's strongest as tale of good versus evil. Dune is more introspective about the nature of power and fate and builds a much more compelling world as a result. Dune is also a more well designed world as a whole.

@aGuyOnMyPhone @RobertSecundus also the quality in story telling and writing drops significantly in the brian herbert books so wouldn’t you want to start with the actual canon story that people like?

@RobertSecundus When a person is basically asking “does it have prequels that do weird retconny stuff” and the answer is “yes” you should not say “no” because you want to pretend the books don’t exist. That’s just being an asshole

@RamsFanAren @nunuandred @xaviersonline_ @SN_Server pokemon is surprisingly bigger than mario by a long shot if u look it up

@nunuandred @xaviersonline_ @SN_Server Are we forgetting who THE Super Mario is? Come on now

Plants vs Zombies has to be one of the most mishandled IPs in recent history, it could genuinely have been Pokemon big

@viperbirdie @blackgodwayne jacksonville is southern asf

@blackgodwayne Yeah this is wrong. Maybe in Florida which isn’t really the south. And along the coast. Theres basements everywhere throughout the south.

random but you’ll near never see a basement in the south this is strictly a Midwest northern thing lol

@ytwojs @ErickKhan_ cornball

@ErickKhan_ If it gets you high whats the issue

btw if your cart is ever measured in “ML” you are smoking chinese pesticides and taint juice

@habitovin “lets appeal to 12 year olds instead of 10 year olds” redesign

im curious. what do we call this flavor of video game mascot redesign

@AquaticFlapper i feel so sad as a breaking bad fan bc the fanbase used to just be normal people idk what happened

This take is insanely wrong if you’ve ever even brush Rick and Morty, Fear and Hunger, Warhammer 40k, or Breaking Bad fans.

@HeyoJD @labubusgaysex @linkenparis_ analysis can be really fun if you respect what you watch

@labubusgaysex @linkenparis_ Yes but not OVERanalyze. Its just fun

Yo nunca entendí cual era el nivel tecnológico en Naruto, a veces pareciera que vivían en la época feudal sin tecnología y luego de la nada veías un televisor, postes de luz, tecnología contemporánea, etc

@JohnDeveincrdj @aryanniggacel @marznotforu

@aryanniggacel @marznotforu mb got it confused with Seychelles.. two cheeks of the same ass anyways

Non black Europeans love taking the term amerikkkan which was based off the suffering of black Americans for their amusement I see

@gargoyleNEET @jestermaxxing you’re getting nothing

Watched this at the theatre with my partner and I was crying at the end and she wasn't, then we noticed there were several other couples in our row and it was just the men crying lol

@RootBootToo1 @Xyless @egoraptor i mean what more than him saying “yeah i was overreacting for validation” do you need? this isn’t a big deal

@Xyless @egoraptor If I was 50 and looked back at my 35 year old self. I would see myself as younger and stupider. But that doesn't make 35 young or a good defense for something you did in the past.

This clip is a great example of why I didn't want to continue making Sequelitis. I had an interest in game design, and I had an interest in publicly talking about it, but my thing was comedy, and cartoons. So that's how I did the show... as a cartoon comedy. My schtick was loud characters, and chaotic shouting. Every topic in Sequelitis was shouted at full volume. Every little design choice I thought was smart was "fucking genius" and every minor annoyance I had was a full on meltdown rant. Some things I complained about didn't even piss me off, I just thought they were interesting to bring up. But I exaggerated them for the sake of comedy because I didn't really know how to make them funny otherwise. And I'm sure because I was young and insecure, I had a morbid desire to shake things up... Ocarina was an untouchable game, a 10/10 across the board, and I think being provocative about that appealed to me back then, too. But I love Ocarina. I grew up with it. I genuinely did want to have a discussion about the things that didn't age well, because I think that's interesting. I think we can learn a lot from that. But I dunno... I just don't think I felt confident enough to talk about it with the appropriate tone, so I hid behind what I knew: a cartoon character that shouts. This carried into Game Grumps... I had been doing Game Grumps for like 3 years when I released the Zelda video. I think the lines blurred for the audience because at that point I was "Arin Hanson," not Egoraptor. But Arin on Game Grumps is also a character. If I'm getting frustrated and shouting at a game on the show, it's for the bit. It's a show. Heightened emotions. And the go-to bit for me was saying "this game sucks, it's bad" and going on rants. The intent was to play the buffoon. But I think people just thought that was me. And that's fine. I don't blame them. It is "me," there's always some truth behind that sort of stuff. And I think it was extra confusing because I WOULD just be normal sometimes on the show. But you may notice recently I've very deliberately changed how I handle those bombastic moments on Grumps, where I point the finger inward now. "I suck, I messed up, I can't believe I didn't see that, what an idiot, etc." I just didn't like the bad energy I was putting out there. I hated that people saw me that way. It disturbed me that people told me "wow, you're actually really nice" all surprised when they met me in person, as if they assumed I'd rip their head off. And look, I'm not gunna pretend I'm an angel on the show now, the schtick of "buffoon that is easily angered" comes very easy to me when I'm performing, so I still utilize it constantly. But I usually find a way to channel it inward and be the butt of the joke, instead of just radiating it outward. It's funnier that way. I think I just assumed this was all obvious. You see how I tweet. You've seen interviews. I don't talk like I do on the show, or in my cartoons. I like being supportive of people and I like discussing things. I don't shout in my normal life. So when I see people characterizing me as this idiot who has no patience and sucks at playing Zelda... it sounds so silly but it just honest to goodness hurts my feelings sometimes. I love game design! I love video games! But, I get it. All you can see of me in my shows and cartoons is this loudmouth asshole who says your favorite game sucks. Like, fuck that guy, right? I think that's valid. I think you're right to feel that way. I think I was playing fast and loose with this character and I was being flippant about how frustrated it made people. I regret that. I suppose I should have thicker skin about this. And yeah... it feels so benign in the grand scheme of things. Who cares if people are circulating an 11 year old clip from a cartoon I made and saying "wow this guy's a moron." It shouldn't matter. Why should I care? But I guess I just have to admit that I do care sometimes, and it just kinda bums me out. I cared a lot about game design back then. It wasn't as prevalent as it is now. It was all dry GDC talks (which are, of course, wonderful). I found it really exciting to bring game design to light in a fun way for people that don't usually think about it. I hope I succeeded in that. But if I could go back, I think the in-your-face hyperbolic know-it-all character would go the way of the dodo. I suspect that aspect of it may have done some harm for game design discourse. And that sucks. For the record, the waiting in Ocarina barely frustrates me. I think it's appropriate at times. The game feeling larger and more cinematic just kind of lends itself to moments of pause. Enemies are more sparse so making them "last longer" just kind of makes sense. Did I feel this way back then? I'm sure I did feel stronger that "waiting" was more frustrating... but not to the level in this clip, by any means. That's just being young and insecure, I guess. I felt like I had to beat my chest in order for anyone to listen or be interested in what I had to say.
