Yep, those SNES-era games are way shorter than people remember, as I'm always pointing out. Mario RPG does take me around 10 hours, yeah. What would be really nice is if they added extra areas to some of the shorter parts (Bowser's Castle and Star Hill could use expanding). Star Hill...that...

Yeah I think it's a "death by a thousand cuts" thing where people are tired of the sheer volume of it. Politics and political beliefs have infiltrated every hobby any of us ever tried to have in peace. Escapism is a very important thing and when we're constantly yanked out of our escapism by...

Was playing Rondo of Blood and remembered Annette. I really liked this character when I was younger. Then I realized she'd be in the show and got legit excited to look it up and see if she was. Then... ...what the fuck It's like "unwanted woke changes 101". Part I dislike the most is that...

Is this show any good? The Harley/Ivy one where they're crazy lesbians and fly around in a spaceship shaped like a penis. It looks completely off the wall, batshit crazy. The two leads are hot. Could be either really good or atrociously bad.

Man, I used to be able to roll nonstop like that. Now I'd probably either pull a muscle or be gasping for air like a beached trout by the 2nd one.

"I don't think LGBTQ people are mentally ill. I just think you are."

Not sure if I like some of the changes, like the "phone game" menus. Also not sure if this game needed an easy mode. Original Mario RPG is already quite easy, except maybe the final area and the Axem Rangers fight. They already added team super-attacks that decimate everything, and the ability...

In all my years of monking I never got Whistling Fists. Does the effect stack with the epic 1.0 effect? (I.e. is it worth doing when you're on a fast unlock server)

Yeah, The Hill is pretty good on Youtube...from what little I've seen. They still do a fair amount of clickbait titles and whatnot but most of it isn't. They aren't partisan in either direction (so both sides probably think they're favoring the other). I watch maybe one video from them a month...

A friend of mine who's half-Dominican thought a bunch of his friends and family were probably gonna get deported after Trump won in 2016. All legal citizens mind you. I would joke with him and rib him that he'd get deported too, because he's half white so he thought he was safe. The whole thing...

Yeah they got the gun completely wrong. And I don't even know WTF that's supposed to be. That said, I'd be shocked to see Disney make something like this. Mainly because I'd be shocked to see them make something that'll actually make money.

Before the impromptu rant above, I actually came here to rant about Ebay again. Not only are they impossible (literally impossible) to get a real person on the phone with, their system of handling canceled bids is trash. Been selling a ton of old games/CDs/movies/books since I want to get rid...

That unfortunately sounds a lot like my alcoholic ex who died. She acted like that towards the end and the rare times I'd see her I'd end up apologizing to friends afterwards for how she acted. Just incredibly awkward statements from her randomly to the point that other people quickly kinda just...

Cool. Alright, looks like when I set up a login account it didn't work, or didn't load, or something. Went back over there and had 0 login accounts listed, tried again, let it sit for a minute, then it went through. Well, damn, this is what the character select looks like...

Decided to give this a whirl, got it installed, got the right dll file from the discord, got a board account set up, got a login account set up. Says my account is not found or invalid. Also the window is stuck in this very small mode and alt+enter doesn't work. Is it supposed to look like this?

Yeah it sounds pretty bad. Make a show based on something beloved that numerous people are gonna be looking forward to, then go Full Steam Panderverse with changing the story.

Good article. @Secrets What's the plan for Luclin models on this server?

I would be willing to bet someone $1000 that this pivotal scene from Symphony of the Night doesn't make it into the Netflix adaptation. If anything they'll probably have Maria defeat Alucard and then be the one to go save Richter.

I see, so there's actually a six year time jump between SOTN's intro (Rondo's final battle) and the very next scene with Alucard heading for the castle. Not surprised the anime retcons Maria's age so they can just have one story move right into the next. Symphony could follow immediately after...

So what's the best way to watch this pander-fest? Get Paramount+? Also, fuck Disney.

Wait a minute, if Symphony immediately follows Rondo...how the hell does Maria age like 6 years between the two games? Just a retcon like the show is doing, I guess?

Alright but where does Kid Dracula fit into all this? Just kidding, that was pretty interesting stuff. So CVL and CotM were canon-scrubbed...that explains why they both seem to exist on such an island.

I want to be like the cool RMT kids too. WTB with real money a Manastone, Guise, JBoots, and a Rubicite suit. Also a level 50 character. Then I can log in and weep for I have no worlds left to conquer and log out

Nope, no Mirror of Fate or any of the console 3D CVs (the N64 ones and PS4 ones). Not into 3D CV for whatever reason, just really like the 2D ones. Same thing happened with Contra. Trying to keep the CV timeline straight is kinda hard since the games bounce around so much. Castlevania Legends...

Yeah, Trevor beating Death was the high point of the show, and good to see the main character actually get a win on his own. I'm mainly bummed that they just left Grant Dynasty out entirely.

Whoa, Harmony of Dissonance is a sequel to CV2? So it's got Simon? I'm playing Circle of the Moon a bit now and it takes place hundreds of years after the others, with a new guy who isn't a Belmont. Main thing I remember CotM for is the graphics being kinda dark and the sprites being tiny...

People like that also really like to project their own feelings onto others. They go on and on about "hate" while acting hateful. If someone doesn't like their behavior, that person is "literally killing them", but a day later they're saying how much better the world would be if we killed all...

I'd be willing to bet that nobody actually "harassed" that person.

I'm not surprised considering the previous Castlevania series (by the same people) had Sypha doing 90% of the heavy lifting in battles, male characters pretty much always losing 1v1 against female characters, and the lesbian vampire putting on a suit of armor and going full Berserk killing like...

Good idea. The greasiness is a real problem and drying them with paper towels doesn't get rid of all of it. Alright I'm trying this next, oven with foil. Oven is electric. Smithfield is the only one I haven't tried yet so it's next. Definitely don't recommend Oscar Meyer. Have one remaining...

Yeah I only sped through the 6 GBA/DS SOTN-likes ten years ago to "check them off" more or less. Barely even remember any of them. After giving SOTN a second run and getting to know it a bit better, now I want to give a second shot to those other 6 if I can find the time for them somewhere. The...

Yeah that's about what I figured. Beat the game, trying Maria mode now. I thought this was basically the same game just with Maria instead of Alucard, but nope, it's basically a "normal Castlevania" version of the game where you just need to fight through to and beat the bosses, no special items...

I was gonna say, the Fire Longsword is what got me through like a third of DS2. It's pretty easy to get in that first fortress area. When I initially played it and was having issues getting anywhere, finding that was the game changer where I started progressing.

Does this game have a speed booster type item like Super Metroid and Bloodstained do? Could have sworn it did, but I'm not having much luck looking it up. Saw something about an item that boosts runspeed in dog form, which is at least something, but I remember there being a way to run really...

Looking for some Bacon Insight. I'm just getting into bacon this year. Always liked it fine but never paid much attention to it. This year though I've suddenly got this thing for bacon. Maybe I need more salt, IDK. Noticed I've been fixing it a lot though. Have 3 different brands in the...

IMO they should do this more often. They could do a yearly Mario release easily if they're all like, the length of Mario Bros 3. Playing fanmade levels on Mario Maker 1 and 2, it was incredible the volume of quality level designs that were on there. Nintendo could commission fanmade levels and...

Yeah I don't know why people are Chris Hansening because she's a grown woman in SOTN. What did you in?

Yeah snowboard is probably third game. I doubt the current one is gonna go past the Forgotten City. Too bad because I think everybody's looking forward to snowboarding. It could actually be a selling point for the third game if they don't take that game off on some wild nonsensical tangent like...

So who's going to be playing Mario Wonder? I'm gonna probably get it day one. ...and probably also finish it day one. From what I played a few weeks ago on a reviewer copy, the game is gonna be pretty short by modern standards. Is there any real reason to emulate this instead of just getting...
