Watching Markiplier play a horror game for the first time in god knows how long.

I guess I never got past Middle School

While I still watch and enjoy his FNAF and Subnautica videos once in a while, I quite enjoy his horror playthroughs where he's more calmer and when he gets scared, it feels alot more genuine, like his At Dead of Night and Darkwood playthroughs.

I watched the edgy youtubers growing up that are obviously either completely different now (edups/joji) or have been wiped off the platform (mumkey) entirely. Probably wasn't the best idea, all things considered.

At least I didn't watch Leafy. i-i watched the british leafy aka pyro

 

[Noipoi]

Bro you just unlocked a repressed memory

He used to be huge in 2016.

And he flopped trying to come back last year. Or was it this year? I honestly couldn't remember.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

The original FNaF's sudden rise to popularity was the reason I even discovered Markiplier in the first place.

I had probably watched some of his content before, but I never memorized the username or the man himself until I started watching him play Five Night's at Freddy's.

 

[Will]

Why do I pull up the Wikipedia home page out of boredom and see them having a Belle Delphine ahegao gif front and center on the ****ing website?



Man, they must really need those donations.

Spoiler: I can't stress how dumbfounded I am

You ever find it amusing that the Pokémon in smash use their anime voices instead of the game cries?

Maybe that’s how it should be in the games too. Just saying.

Honestly I wouldn't be opposed to this. It works really well for Pikachu and Eevee, but it's a bit jarring when all other pokemon are still using (often outdated) digital cries next to them.

It'd be a lot of extra work though, especially when you consider a lot of pokemon have different names in different languages, so I'm not counting on it happening. But I don't think it'd be entirely unfeasable.

Pikachu does nowadays since Gen 6, and honestly I'm surprised they haven't done it to Jigglypuff.

I do agree to an extent though, they've gotta be running out of soundbytes. Some of these cries are just ridiculous.

 

[Noipoi]

Cries have to stay so Skuntank can continue to be a long wet fart.

 

[TheMightyP]

It is a bit jarring when the new mons use more realistic and/or animalistic cries, but the old ones still got their garbled 8-bit mess.

Except Pikachu and Eevee

 

[ZephyrZ]

My one requirement for fully voice acted pokemons is that the Porygon line all keep their old cries, since it'd still be fitting.

Okay fine that cry can stay as well.

And so can Krikitune's.

 

[TheMightyP]

Sun and Moon leak period were something else

Edit: the other 2 are somewhat large accounts in case you wonder why I didn't censor them.

I miss it

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I mean

They all do something completely different than each other.

I guess if I had to personally pick a favorite, it'd probably be Rivals die to its extensive modding community that's getting bigger and better every day, but TBH that's just a personal opinion from one who's only played that one out of the four you listed.

if on a discount and if you like Nickelodeon, definitely try out NASB. Fun game to play

 

[TheMightyP]

I miss it

Incineroar fan saying he misses SuMos leak period

Bull****.

I might be one of the few, if not the only one here, who discovered him before FNAF. Or at least, found him and his channel not because of FNAF. It was actually SCP Containment Breach.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Bull****.

Nah it checks out, he was right so Incineroar was as much of a heel as he's supposed to be while everyone else was mad

 

[MooMew64]

Some thoughts on Brilliant Diamond:

Played about an hour and a half and didn’t get super far, but it’s all super solid so far!

Gonna play more tomorrow: Part of why I didn’t get very far is ‘cause I’m super tired from work today ATM and it’s late, so I actually was struggling to stay awake, lol.

Noipoi Pokelego999 ‘cause pocket moon

 

[TheMightyP]

Huh, didn't think about it like that.

You're right

The same **** happened with the Grinch garbage, people gleefully saying that we're actually getting 7 characters announced in the span of a month and being awful people on top of it being greeted by Incineroar was very ****ing onbrand for Incineroar

tbh that thing will never not be funny in hindsight

people really were banking on the “Sakurai’s a lier!” nonsense

People are still on copium to this day so it's not really funny anymore. Now it's just sad

So... I guess we have a new cat now:

Spoiler

Minnoş has been around the house for years now but lately, he's been getting too old for spending the night outside in winter. He's not super domestic and dislikes pets but I think he likes it here for now.

The worst case I saw is a guy thinking that everyone only cares about the most popular top 5 mainstream franchises instead of their favourite, the top 5 being as follows

Everyone
Who
Isn't
My
Favourite

They still do this too

This post will look so funny in hindsight when those characters will be in Fighter Pass 3.

I was about to say good morning but I think I'll see myself out before I get myself banned again

Persona fans when they realize they can't make the same "ATLUS forgot first games" joke the 495720472018th time now:

What, are you getting warnings for those now too?

 

[Jondolio]

No

But if I didn't hold my tongue on this particular topic I would probably get one

 

[Z25]

Z25 @Wario Bros., I've been trying to claim the Brilliant and Shining Leafeon and Glaceon in Xenoverse using the codes on their Youtube channel, but when I enter it it says the codes are not valid. Any idea why this is? And yes I spelt them correctly.

I haven’t kept up with Xenoverse recently, so I wasn’t aware of this. Is your launcher updated? Their Twitter doesn’t have anything but I’m on mobile so maybe I missed the code on YouTube.

If that still doesn’t work I would check the discord and see if the code is bugged.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Is Madoka Magica owned by Warner Bros?

They have the distribution rights to Rebellion in Japan, so it's not completely out there.

Anyways just finished Squid Game and it was pretty good. That's all I gotta say about it.

 

[ZephyrZ]

Just finally got around to starting Brilliant Diamond and heck the nostalgia bomb has already hit me. I was not ready.

Honestly the chibi style has already really grown on me. It's got this clean, glossy look to it that I feel really matches the atmosphere of Sinnoh well.

Edit: The sound quality though, ick.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

Guys. I'm still alive. Didn't post here yesterday cause I had the toothache from hell. So Lamperouge and Noipoi and all my other ones here I'm still fond of, I'm ok.

Just had to do some DIY dental surgery on myself.

However I'm stuck on what to get on the Black Friday sale. Switch side is fine. Gonna get Death End re;Quest and some golf indie game with my local economy card. Stuck between Miles Morales, Like a Dragon and Assassin's Creed Valhalla for the PS4 side. Outside of Switch copy 45, gonna be done with getting games until Horizon.

In short on the PS4 side might want help deciding.

I liked the Miles game quite a bit, but if you want your money's worth, As the Miles game is shorter than the first Spider-Man title. You might want Like A Dragon.

Finally started watching Naruto

Honestly that first episode is a pretty strong start

 

[---]

Good early morning to ya. Time to go Thanksgiving shopping. Hopefully I'm beating the crowd by going at 7:30am. Going to be bummed if I can't get any rotisserie chicken. Living alone, a $5-6 dollar 3-meal dinner is fantastic.

Was able to win another anime cel off Yahoo Auctions, this time from Yu Yu Hakusho; still waiting for the perfect Kuwabara cel to pop up though as he's my fav. Lots of nice Urusei Yatsura cels come up tomorrow so fingers crossed.

Finally started watching Naruto

I remember the world premier on Toonami back in the day. The introduction arc is definitely one the strongest despite how short it is. Believe it!

 

[toonito]

EXP Share is just convenient. I think having the ability to turn it off for a challenge would be fun, but honestly, I don't want it to be completely removed just for the sake of being more like the original. I don't wanna spend hours grinding in Pokemon when I could just have the EXP share, haha.

i agree

however people should have the option of turning it off. it doesn't make sense since IIRC every other generation had it as optional

i've personally always keep it on cause grinding via battles is lame

I was watching the streamer show food play the game yesterday and because of the exp share always being on, all his Pokemon were way over leveled and he was One shooting mostly everything. He had three pokémon and was only using one, his Monferno
