Don't we all?

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Am I the only one who thinks its kinda sad that people knows Thor more from Marvel then from the actual Norse myths itself? Leads them to believe he's a Marvel creation when that isn't the case.

That or those folks just don't want to accept the fact accurate Norse myth Thor wasn't handsome and was how he is depicted in God of War: Ragnarok. Red-haired, beard and fat strongman.

tbf why would most people know about Norse mythology accuracy when they can just to to Marvel and enjoy those instead? They can grow into knowing of the original source…then stick to the handsome guy if they want or move on to the other guy that could be deemed handsome

Just another way I can relate to my favorite series

 

[Shroob]

Anyway, I'm gonna catch Ting Lu and then work on getting The 2nd Koraidon


If you wanna work on the 2nd Miraidon TheMightyP , we can do a tradeback of them to one another.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Sonic 2 beaten. I didn't get all the emeralds but hey, i've done it before so i have nothing to prove this time. Next up, Sonic CD.

 

[TheMightyP]

Also, side note on Pokemon (spoiler): The story makes more sense with Violet

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I'm gonna go for the good ending in CD by getting the robot generators. I've never done that before.

 

[Zinith]

Typecasting Kevin Michael Richardson are we?

 

[Shroob]

Wow

The 2nd Koraidon was naturally Adamant.

 

[SneakyLink]

As we approach the end of the year I have one thing to say:

I think I spent too much time playing Blue Sphere. No idea why I enjoy it so much.

Also Sonic CD is my favorite Sonic game. I enjoy the music.

 

[TheMightyP]

Has anyone tried SVs multiplayer yet?

Like what does it do?

If you're close to one another, the opposite version exclusives will spawn.


It works in Area Zero too


But it's buggy as **** there. There's like a 99% chance you'll be invisible to the other player.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

AFTER 689 EGGS... I FINALLY GOT MY BOY.

The soundtrack is a true bop. I just wish there was a way to rig it so that Sonic Boom played as the intro song but then used the Japanese ost for the rest of the game.

Also, seriously. If they had managed to add Knuckles to Sonic CD and rigged up a playable Amy in all four games, that would have been oooooo so good.

I think the two legendary thing works a little better with Scarlet.

You've got two prehistoric lizards, of course they'd battle for territory. Makes sense.

Two android dragons...why do they give a ****? Use an algorithm to chart out the most proficient distribution of land, lmao

Fair, but I was going for the angle that an AI that goes rouge because he got prideful and didn't add in a kill switch even though his experiments were getting more deadly (and killed him) is taken out of a futuristic sci-fi film. Evem more so that the AI wanted to shut down the experiment.

 

[Shroob]

Okay, caught Ting Lu and Chien-Pao, just Chi-yu and Miraidon left to get.

 

[Aurane]

Everyone else is still playing Pokemon ScVi, meanwhile I got dragged back into Skyrim by Todd Howard.

 

[Shroob]

Okay, that's Chi-Yu done.


Just need Miraidon and I'll be 400/400

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I like this

I need Chun-Li, does anyone know where I can find a Chun-Li

Hear me out, Joe Pesci Wario

 

[Shroob]

So ya.

Anyone got the electric Lizard for a tradeback? It's the last one I need.

 

[TheMightyP]

Like you're gonna trade it back as soon as it happens? Yeah I got to get one

 

[Shroob]

Yeah, I just need it for my dex and then I'll trade it right back.

 

[TheMightyP]

Yeah, I just need it for my dex and then I'll trade it right back.

Ok, send me code. I just wasted my Master Ball on the one in Area Zero

If it wasn't for Marvel, most people wouldn't even look for the real mythology behind Thor. As inaccurate as it is, the Norse inspiration behind the comics and movies made people aware of it much more than before.

Also, Thor being fat is just as much of a modern retelling as others. In the legends, we know that he was intimidating but there's no sourced mentions about his body shape or face other than his eyes.

 

[Shroob]

Thanks TheMightyP , that's 400/400 for me.

Let Gamefreak Cook. W game W ending

If you were unspoiled for all the Pokémon this game and the story,

Read the Scarlet/Violet book. It’s in the lobby of the school to the right on the front desk in a small kiosk separated from everything.

There’s some very promising things in there making for more W’s.

Fair, but I was going for the angle that an AI that goes rouge because he got prideful and didn't add in a kill switch even though his experiments were getting more deadly (and killed him) is taken out of a futuristic sci-fi film. Evem more so that the AI wanted to shut down the experiment.

That’s why the story works so well.

Spoiler

The AI is the good person in this situation, because let’s be real, Arvens parent went crazy when he was born.

The professor of your game never played with him as a kid, left him to fend for himself and grow up on his own, prioritizes an experiment that threatens the environment and the world over her own kids survival.

I don’t care what the robot says, Arvens parents hated him. The opposite professor just straight up vanishes when he was born. Which is implied to be of their own will, not the main professors.

Arvens life is just truly ****ed.

 

[Shroob]

Down to the last sidequest, which is getting the sweet herba mystica for the home ec teacher, and then.....

............wait until DLC?

 

[osby]

Just a random question that came to my mind to Pokemon peeps: You know how Dark and Fairy types were added partially to balance the broken types of the time (respectively Psychic and Dragon)?

If GameFreak were to add another type or two, which types would they be created as an opposition to?

Ironically Fairy is the best type in the game, so probably that.

Doesn't Thor manage to succesfully disguise himself as Freya by crossdressing in one particular story? Twinky femboy Thor confirmed more accurate to Norse mythology than a big burly dude

 

[Shroob]

So yeah Flutter Mane and Iron Hands absolutely break raids.


I'm out here solo-ing Charizard with Mane, and Hands can deal with almost anything as long as I adjust its moveset appropriately.
