@timAcatsoftpaws And yet neither is allowed to kill the other for continuity reasons.
It'd just be a clash of lightsabers until one of them runs away from the other.

@EdisPrime Also Vader is genuinely the only person around at this time that could beat Maul outside of Sidious.
English
1. This is honestly long overdue because for a long time they turned Maul into a jobber who hasn't gotten to aura farm and win since like Clone Wars Season 4. People have started downplaying him because of that. He needs to be propped up again first.
2. Vader will appear.
English
@ArkNazo I don't even necessarily disagree with that, I just think that comparing it to Kotor 2 is nonsensical.
English
@EdisPrime It's over 2 hours of Movie where they could have add nuanced ideas and instead wastes time on boring Casino planet fetch Quest, that was ultimately futile anyway. 😆
English
I always say The Last Jedi is the Lazy Man's KotOR 2, it believes it's nuanced, deep, and revolutionary when ideas like it have already been done. 😅

It's a shame that Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 is often remembered as "the unfinished sequel not made by Bioware" because it actually improved on the formula of the first game in many ways. - start as a Jedi - no level cap - subclasses - combat stances - party members can become Jedi - far more item variety - DEEPER STORY On top of all that, you can install the Restored Content Mod and have all the stuff you thought you were missing in the first place. In my eyes, it's the perfect Star Wars RPG. Do not sleep on this game!
English
@timAcatsoftpaws I genuinely don't see what would be the point of it besides feeding fanservice to the fans.
Which I know Star Wars fans love to eat up
English
@EdisPrime If ever Vader was going to appear anywhere this would be the time and place to do it. God forbid we finally get Maul vs Vader.

KOTOR 2 is the best KOTOR game and I will die on this hill

@WorstGirlEva That's the thing. Most of these stories are created not for escapism, but to reaffirm one's own identity and political beliefs.
Take for example SAO
Kirito undergoes 0 changes as a person,just reaffirms his masculine role in a heteronormative society and gets a wife as a reward
English
Most "escapism" in fantasy is just escaping from the minorities the developers and target audience don't participate in
Gonktinaauugpuaghhughh@Loudwindow
lots of cozy wholesome games taking place in the european countryside with little to no poc and nobody is allowed to talk about race

@fuedalreese Me and my friend were trying to create a portal to Island Gorm.

i’ll be honest when i first read witch hat i didn’t think coco was dumb for tracing that spell because i was doing way dumber things at twelve

@7Negative_Creep You can only be queer in Type Moon if you fall under one of these three categories:
1. Female
2. Feminine male or gender non conforming
3. Pervert
English
honestly out of everything type moon has done not acknowledging Andersen’s bisexuality will probably upset me the most why are they so scared of letting men be queer even when they literally were in real life
English
@Jaereku It in general explores systemic oppression and how it negatively affects many groups of people.
In WHA's case it's a very good analogy actually as WHA's magic is performed by combining: drawing art, science, cooking, technology, fashion etc.
Instead of being just pure soft magic.
English
Now, I've only just started the anime, but if this is Witch Hat Atelier's core thesis, it comes off as extremely libertarian and strange.
Though this is a common problem with fantasy stories using magic as a metaphor, especially for knowledge. It makes for a very clumsy analogy.
Isaiah D. Colbert is on Bluesky@ShinEyeZehUhh
Louder for the people in the back.

@Balurion2 @Jaereku It's truly a story that gets better and more interesting with each chapter/episode.
English
And Dunmeshi is unremarkable to me precisely for that reason. I’m not interested in stories whose selling point is the author’s worldbuilding and complex ecosystems. That is bland storytelling.
giovanni@greysenjou
E é triste que Dungeon Meshi não vai ter a mesma relevância dos dois provavelmente Tu começa achando que vai ser aquele tipo de anime legalzinho com um tema meio diferente, mas do nada vira uma AULA sobre um bioma e uma fauna complexos completamente criados pelo autor
English
@Jaereku Oh ok then.
I thought you straight up disliked it for a moment.
English
@EdisPrime The characters are unique and the art is very pleasant! It's certainly something I would continue to watch if further seasons are made. It's just not the kind of story that is particularly compelling. It's a solid 7 which is good, just not *great*
English
@EdisPrime @bysameng The game has been on plus since it released
English
if it's still too expensive just pirate it honestly
SKATE STORY@skatestorygame
Skate Story is now available on @GOGcom. Enjoy the devil's discount for the next week.
English
@MinModulation Perhaps it also has a little bit to do with the fact that it came out in the era when western fans were a bit less critical and analytical.
Like your random "normie" FMAB fan would more likely talk about Lust getting incinerated instead of its imperialism and racism themes.
English
While Full Metal Alchemist is very good, I almost feel it's too "good" for its own good - the insane acclaimed reputation in the West is partially due to being seemingly "inoffensive" to non-anime watchers. That is, many fans have a Phantom Normie peering over their shoulders.
