The game really slows down toward the end, since the last chapter is basically a straight shot of corridors and boss battles that you’ll easily beat your way through if you’ve done every sidequest in the game. I know that’s what basically killed my replay of the game on DS once I got to the Ocean Palace ending segment.

Currently playing Breath of Fire 4 because I never beat it the first time around, and I’m loving every minute of it. Forgot how fun the cast and story are, and how unique the world feels because of its mix of Japanese and Chinese aesthetics. Really wish they’d hurry up and make a new game, since Dragon Quarter was the…

it’s because the negative comments are always the same chorus of: “This comic isn’t funny because of X,” with X usually amounting to “Because I don’t think it’s funny, personally.”

it’s not worth it.

you have very much come to the wrong comment section to complain about the subjective humor found—or not—in these comics.

Can adults and “funny people” just leave kid’s cartoons alone for, like. The next ten years? Five years? We get it, already: y’all have a massive contempt for being bullied about things you used to love as children and now need them to be as dark and edgy as possible so that they’re “cool” or “relatable”.

After watching gameplay of this, I’m really feeling like this game is more than just an homage/riffs off similar aesthetics from Dead Cells, like.

“Because Kotaku loves to praise both and criticize both when it fits the narrative they are trying to push.”

Obviously, bringing up your situation to someone who had to live through a particularly bad version of it—to the point of going to therapy for me to be able to forgive my parents, well-intentioned though they were—is a bit of a trigger for me. But, that’s on me, and not indicative of you doing anything wrong outside…

I wasn’t being passive aggressive; I’m literally and honetly admitting that I forgot not everyone hangs out around teachers as much as I do—because of my job—so I should’ve done a better job at explaining how I was using the world “window.”

Thank you for clarifying! I don’t read the comic outside of when it’s posted here, so the extra context is useful.

Kind of why I used the word “window”, but I get that not everyone is surrounded by teachers all the time and I should’ve explained what I meant better.

You came up to someone who admits, in their very first post, to be the child of parents that divorced because they resented one another.

It’s a window into the life of a Trans person and one of the issues they—and others, even if they’re not Trans—go through, re: “looking normal”. Sometimes it’s not an issue that can just be solved with penciling in eyebrows; Body Dysmorphia and other kinds of body image issues affect people differently, and the comic…

The both of you are legitimately terrible people, and should not be together—let alone be raising a child together in the same household. I don’t know what the hell your life is like, or know either of your circumstances; but the utterly blase way you just drop “I really think we’re fucking out kid up, but maybe we…

Believe me, there’s a fine line between stuff like ADD/ADHD or other headspace stuff making you clueless/not attentive to things, and your partner just being that inattentive and gross. 

Exactly this! Sometimes you can be madly in love and still need me time or personal space, and that’s okay! Go take that bubble bath, or lock up for a few hours to do a hobby. Take time to read or do whatever else it is to do that you’d normally do when your partner isn’t around!

Caveat: if this is stuff that you’re willing to hash out through therapy, and there’s hope of actual work being done in the future to fix things—mutual or otherwise—then that’s also something to think about.

Honestly, a lot of these just sound like people settled for a partner whose presence they could tolerate with breaks, but now that they’re forced to spend more time with them, shit is hitting the fan.
