Communism doesn't have the bad reputation here as it does in Europe or America.

My fascination came from my history textbook, which had a really well-written chapter on the Russian Revolution. And Call of Duty 1-3, which portrays them rather neutrally as opposed to villains. I just find 20th century history interesting, and Communism is a major part of it.

That said, I'm not actually supportive of Communism. I just do it for fun. :p

Call of Duty does seem to know how to write appealing Russians. . . weird.
WaW is still my favorite CoD

I love how everything just kills itself in this map
Also, Eliwood's new dodge animation sucks

They needed to have Grima's blood in their veins to be a suitable vessel

This is literally the first time I've TRIED to look for an MLP version of a character.
I also couldn't find it.
I was going to post a horsified Scrooge.
Everything's ruined.

I am starting to work on a new avatar, one that I make myself. Expect some horrible pixel art and a Legend of Zelda x Ace Attorney crossover picture. Soon.

Ok so.
I went to find one to show off my finding skills.

I found scrooge working with a pony which could have worked. I found a naked human pony and a pissed off scrooge.

And then I found a wonderful piece of art.
I don't want to post it because I think it would be labelled violent but. . .
imagine a shirtless Scrooge mc duck with a machete in one hand and a spear on the other. On the end of that spear is the head of a Predator because he is in the middle of a fight with ANOTHER PREDATOR

AND THE PREDATOR HAS DUCK SKULLS ON ITS BELT

10/10

Seriously just look up "predator scrooge" :laugh:

ELIWOOD CAN MOVE AFTER ATTACKING

You have the tendency to look at one single piece of criticism and assume that's the only flak said topic gets. Push has explained why DYKG is garbage because they don't care if they have misinformation, and more and more mistakes keep piling up. Granted, I'm not pretending I don't do that, but you do this almost all the time something gets flak. People use Bitblock's salt about hating the last Nintendo Direct solely because they boycott him as an EXAMPLE. You then chastised everyone for hating him because you thought him being salty as **** about Cloud was the only thing we hate
Click to expand...
Oh no. I'm fully aware of DYKGaming's criticisms.
But I'm not referring to those mistakes. I'm referring to this one "mistake".

Now do I think they've screwed up? Oh of freaking course. Hell In my opinion they've been falling apart ever since they abandoned their original concept and just focused on stuffing whatever Youtuber they get into some video.
But I do also believe that sometimes the backlash can be more uncalled for than the actual mistake, this is one the few times. A mispronunciation (which keep in mind this is also could also be a factor by familiarity with the word and accents) is far less important than a factual error (like the Smash errors Push has explained). The latter by all means they should be corrected on, but the former isn't something worth getting all worked up over.
Now sure, this is only a small wrench in the machine called "DYKGaming", and they have gotten things wrong. But as of now I'm not referring to those errors or gaps. I'm referring to here and now, the "flavor of the month" if you will.

Though admittedly I don't remember chastising people over the BitBlock thing. In fact when it happened I remember laughing at him just like the rest of the Internet did.


And really, what I post is not my whole opinion. Like, you all do realize that a post is merely just that, a post. My entire opinion on someone or something isn't just defined by the one or two paragraphs I post on them. Oh sure it may look that way, but that's because of how the Internet works. Everyone is anonymous including myself. I'm not defined by who I am, but rather what I speak. As really, it's the only thing to go off of.


Also just to be clear, I don't do this "almost every single time". I've been on the offense just as much as I've been on the defense.

Doesn't seem violent to me besidws a bit of blood, but maybe it's because I'm disgusting and imagined guts all over them. :p

When I saw 'almost every single time', I'm talking about when you act condescending because someone dun goofed and gets flak for it. You always structure it the same way and make it sound like that's the only thing they did was wrong

Midnight snack time, and then I'll work on my brand new WIP avatar until 3am. I really need to finish it asap.

I know mounted units can move after using an item or rescuing someone in the GBA games
But I didn't know that some of them could move after ATTACKING
I can't even imagine the kind of boss abusing this can make
But this mechanic is not in Awakening
I actually got pretty surprised with it when I first played SS

I guess I'm off then.
I would've sworn that mounted, or flying units could still move 1-3 tiles after attacking.

Umbra Clock Tower being considered legal anywhere is actually embarrassing. The stage is horrendous for any competitive environment.

Plus it causes awful lag. -.- God I hate this game's netcode. Can't wait for SF5.

People said Alpharad's Smash Direct bingo wasn't true because Umbra Clock Tower looked legal.

I'm a firm believer Alpharad got true bingo.

Ok, Nintendo, why wasn't this a thing?

It's beautiful! Everyone needs this!
When they do a sequel Nintendo outfits definitely should be a thing.


And yeah, I don't see why Umbrella Clock Tower shouldn't be legal.

I think I'll collect a list of fighting games Nintendo has made. I have some rules on what is allowed:

- Fighting must be the selling point
- Must be published by Nintendo
- Must have mutiplayer Vs. mode(s)

So here's what I've gotten so far:

- Super Smash Bros. series (5 titles)
- Joy Mech Fight (NES)
- Urban Champion series (3 titles)
- Custom Robo series (5 titles)
- Photo Dojo (DSiWare)
- Kirby Fighters Deluxe (3DS)
- Pro Wrestling (NES)
- Boxing (Game & Watch)
- Punch-Out!! (Wii)
- Wii Sports series (Boxing, 2 titles)
- Pokkén Tournament (Wii U)

Missing any?

I don't think some of these count as fighting games (punchout ect)...or maybe there's more sub genres than I know of.
