Man. Forgot about this.... thing.... existing. Let’s hope the hope translates into the game space soon.
the next GOTY...forgotten
Maybe I should make him a boss instead
his natural habitat
Speaking of Miles Morales...


I don't know if this is an actual thing included in the game or just a bizarre glitch, but damn if it ain't amazing regardless.
Spider-Cat and Spider-Lamp...GOTY by default
He's an afro-latono Spiderman, which resonates much better with a different demographic than Peter, and his movie was dope as ****.

That's why he's super popular.
and can be used for the younger folk overall to make up for Peter being allowed to grow up
I guess that's why I don't get him. Because I'm not part of that demographic so he doesn't really jive with me, at least not more then Peter does. And I thought Spider-Verse was super overrated. Like... I don't even wanna get into it.

But.. cool. I guess. Now I know why he's popular. I just... don't agree.
Miles the Messiah
I'm still personally a bigger fan of Peter Parker as Spider-Man but I grew quite fond of Miles after watching Into the Spider-verse.
I prefer Peter as well, but I would refuse to ever put Miles down. He's got the mantle role perfected
Maybe not the initial Bendis run of the character cuz Bendis couldn’t make this character more than just a carbon copy of Peter and mostly everything unique about this version got adapted into MCU Peter.

I haven’t caught up with many of Miles’s comics after Bendis I feel like Spiderverse was the first great rendition of the character.
Ultimate Spider-Man also had him rely on the Avengers...Shield way way way more of course...then as time went by he went on to become his own hero (just needed to adjust to it fully first). I still think the MCU is taking him down that similar path (and for the best based on what we've got for Homeo and Juliet)
Spiderverse Miles is unique, but I think the original incarnation is a good start to understand why people like him. I like Bendis' run, but I'm also the guy who really enjoyed Superior Spider-Man but what do I know?
Bendis made Miles popular enough to be a main character in Secret Wars (2015) and got him moved to 616, so it makes sense to like it. He also currently still has the best stories for Miles, but other writers have managed to add more character to him

also Superior was good, but did drag on for too long

and also ****ed Peter's life up some more...which ended up being a factor in his current comic run
Honestly that's kind of why I don't entirely vibe with MCU Spidey. Tom Holland's a great actor and the character's likeable but he doesn't quite feel like Spiderman when most of his stuff's from Tony and how much he worships Tony to the point Uncle Ben got replaced by Tony as Spidey's big motivator. Then again that's me and I may be petty as I really think Iron Man 3 should have been the character's final send off
tbf Nick Fury has taken the Uncle Ben role as well in the Ultimate comics+show, and it ended with Peter evolving as his own top tier hero. MCU probably taking that route...plus an extra death...as for the Iron Man send off, I'm glad he got to end his run in Endgame, since it was the overall finale for the Infinity Saga (that and Tony needed to be fully broken to start feeling happiness again)
I think that’s also kind of a product of MCU Spidey borrowing so much from comic Miles. Miles was a lot more dependent on the Avengers than Peter ever was and also didn’t have the tragic uncle death INITIALLY.
at this rate MCU Peter will take everything from all the male Spiders...maybe even steal something from Ghost-Spider (unless she gets put in the MCU)
Your like the first person I've ever seen who likes Miles for more than just his race. I like you.
it is now law to love Miles
I'm pretty sure most people like Miles for than just his race.
yes indeed
Also can I just say how much I loved what they did with Aaron Davis in Spiderverse opposed to the comic version? The video I shared goes into that too.

It took until Spiderverse for me to like him, but yeah I resonated with his passion for creativity and feeling pressured by my folks to be smart instead at first. I loved seeing his personal growth and how his journey ties in with the messages of the film.
Aaron has definitely been getting improvements over the years
And who got bit by a radioactive spider.
or has an eva...or was bitten by a radioactive pig...or has powers that relates to none of that...616 Jessica Drew

or can't understand the concept of a joke

As for the rest.... OK. I... I think you're making jokes but I don't get them so...
the simple joke is that there are way too many ways to become a Web Warrior besides getting bit by the spider

This ****ing asshole in Dynamax Advemtures had a Bisharp and just left attacked and killed me then one then did the same to our teamate next turn.

What a pathetic person. If you have such a sad life that this is what you do then man your something else.

I just closed out of the game and said **** that.

Whoever at Gamefreak allowed people to target teammates in this mode genuinely should be first

:ultsteve: is finally here.

...now how many months before Alex, Zombie and Enderman?
Yeah, I brought that up earlier.

But the Steve icon is half assed just like Bylass because we still can't actually set either one as our main yet.

I swear, my brain is hardcoded to royal guard even though it doesn't exist in DMC1.

Multiples times, I see a hit coming my way rapidly, so I get ready to press A, only to realize in a split second that it isn't DMC3, before I get a big ass hit in my face that take half my health.

Steve my man, my main man :ultsteve:

Now for Alex, David, and Gary.

I question the speed at which these show up tbh; understandable if they rip them from the game itself and they can’t do each at once for some reason, but the Smash Wiki already has them readily available. Of course, it’s also perfectly fine if they have some life stuff going on, I guess it just feels weird since Sans came in a day or two.

I swear, people always create as many dumb complaints as possible when the character is LGBTQ+ or BIPOC. When the character isn't LGBTQ+ or BIPOC, you receive little to no complaints from these people. Even when many people point out that the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC character has an amazing personality, people are still going to cover their ears and claim that the character was "forced" in for "representation" or whatever, and that the corporations are appealing to "leftist" propaganda. I am tired of hearing from these chuds.

Despite this, yes. I think Miles was really cool! Into the Spider-Verse is my favorite Spider-Man movie.
Wait hold up.....

Since when has Terraria had a literal furry npc? lmao

probably should get around to playing it again...
Zoologist isn't a furry. She's a lycanthrope.

In a rest stop for wifi and to work because the router still is borked back home.

And the people coming to fix it won't come until Wednesday.

F me.

Potato, potato :mega:
I would say Zoologist is, in fact, a furry. A "furry," by definition, is someone who likes anthro animals, but it can also refer to the animals themselves. The actual race of the animal is irrelevant. Although honestly that's just semantics at this point, call it whatever you want.

Okay, but the Zoologist is still human. She's half human and half fox. She's a neko, which means she is like a catgirl.

Catgirls are not furries.

...Huh.

Nightmare 2 & 3 went surprisly better than 1. Especially 2 since I didn't have to reset for it.

Knowing about the gimmick with the orbs help alot too, but still.

Now, I have only 2 missions to go & Hard Mode is done!...


Too bad tomorrow is when I go back to work. :/

My copy of Shantae and the Seven Sirens should be arriving at some point tomorrow so I think I'll play Half Genie Hero again in the meantime. Haven't tried out Hardcore mode yet and I'm curious to see if it's actually a substantial increase in difficulty compared to the breeze that was a standard playthrough.

Of course, my previous post barely got put here and I beated the final boss & Hard Mode that fast.

Now, while I did use yellow orbs on Mundus second phase, which some say is more or less cheap, I did beat his first phase on my first try!

Thanks to knowing that using d-pad so that I didn't have inverted control & knowing vortex exist, but still! That's a game changer!

Maybe DMD Mundus phase 1 won't be the nightmare I thought it be....instead it be his phase 2.

I got all the blue orbs & purple orbs, sooooo hopefully I be able to survive DMD. ;_;

I find that weird because the MCU's teased Miles so I'm wondering what they'll do to make them differentiate, Ned's even taken Ganke's role of Spidey's best friend so that's another character that'd need to be changed
Miles can just be the same character he is in the Ultimate and 2017 shows...minus having friends beyond 2 females who have yet to be in the MCU
Thank Odin Marvel Comics + Kevin Feige are allowing One More Day to finally be killed off for good

If you join an alternate version Dynamax Adventure, can you save it so you can do it later on your own?

I really like Shiny Lunala, but I have Sword.

Depends.
-All human with added cat ears and cat tail. Sure.
-Has a cat head, cat paws, cat feet, has alot of fur, etc. Basically, has alot of cat features and body parts with a humanoid body. I'm pretty sure they would be.

Yeah, but the Zoologist doesn't have fur. She just has cat ears and a tail.

Plus, the devs stated that Zoologist was never a furry to begin with.

I've been replaying Terraria! I'm trying to do a mix of Yo-Yos, summoning items, and some ranged weapons...on the newish Master Mode they added, which is a step up from Expert. I have no idea how I'm going to beat Eye of Cthulu, let alone later game bosses.

Yes so essentially none of the legends are really version exclusive

Came across a probably fake but interesting rumor nonetheless on Shinnoh Remakes:
It has some interesting ideas going on here.
Dang, Shiny Dialga looking nice.
