Yeah, honestly this is the thing I’m most hyped about.

Would like to bring it to everyone’s attention that the PS5 FFVII Remake’s Yuffie mission has a character named Billy Bob. Not that that’s a huge deviation from Remake’s Chocobo Sam, or hell, the original games having a Zack.

Agreed that Lil Nas X was probably the biggest disappointment here.

Wasn't this super speculated before? Good to know it's actually happening now, I guess. 

So the Came- is definitely because it’s supposed to be a camel, right? So why is it not!?

The N64 controller looks even weirder in retrospect, now that we know how controllers all ended up, but I still maintain it was a perfectly logical evolution from the SNES controller, from people who couldn’t know much better.

From my understanding, it was mostly included for RPGs and 2D platformers... which barely existed on it, between basically every series trying to make the jump to 3D and most of the big RPG developers moving to Playstation for the discs.

Hey, at least that iteration of “Atari” managed to get out one or two decent Roller Coaster Tycoons (mostly thanks to Frontier) before entirely torpedoing their brand! 

I have a Wii that can play GC games, and I’ll always hate myself a little for not buying all the GC games I could when they were pretty cheap.

You know, a comic-y look could actually work great for F-Zero; the menus of X desperately wanted to be, Nintendo absolutely loves shading their cels these days, I think it’d need to be kept much higher detail to keep any of the F-Zero vibe and there’d definitely be naysayers no matter how well they pulled it off,…

I mean, you'd think "youtube run by cucks" ought to at least have some porn, right?

Look, I’m an avid Discord user, currently very active in one unofficial fan server (it’s a decent size, but split up enough and full of enough lurkers it’s not too busy) and periodically checking in on a couple more when I’m interested. They can be great!

Band kids have BEEN using fingerless gloves! (Well, clarinets and flutes, anyway; everyone else can use proper ones.)

Random side note: the half-joking complaints about Hollywood and the MCU’s “ginger erasure.”

I believe I remember hearing once Irish used their word for “black” for, like, demons, so actual Black people are instead described with their word for “blue.”

I feel like Percy Jackson’s well and fully trodden the “oh hey, the Roman stuff exists too and is just slightly different!” ground.

Feel like I should be trying to say something insightful, but the only thing that comes to mind is:

That’s really the thing, though! Heat pumps are just AC with a couple of modifications so it can work the other way, so they might as well be installed whenever new AC is! They might not be able to replace gas all the time (or at least without a lot more effort and cost), but I see no reason why we can’t have both to…

Wish Kinja would let me see replies to my comments so I could star the actually thoughtful reply, instead of only seeing it in my notifications :/ or even if "show pending" didn't cut everything down to 5 replies per comment tops, that'd also work!

As a big Godot engine fan, it’s a little sad to see the first major game using it is... sort of a train wreck, but... Unity’s survived worse, I’m sure it’ll recover.
