I’m not European, but from what I’ve seen, there’s a lot of media coverage. You can’t spend 2 seconds on the mainstream music side of the internet without hearing something from the contest.

Makes sense to me. The Ghoul is an original character, and Goggins doesn’t need to know a lot about the setting or source material.

blood libel is supposed to mean accusations that jewish people eat/drink blood (e.g. Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and one of the many factors that led to the current cultural idea of vampires). it’s often mistakenly applied to people describing Israel as “bloodthirsty”, but like, that term is universally used for evil of all different ethnicities and religions. that mistake then gets further abstracted into “being against genocide is blood libel”.

I haven’t watched it, but I’d say losing your way in season 27 is pretty damn impressive. It’s like someone living healthily to 110.

can’t wait for the 2070s to see this happen to 9/11

I read Berserk.

That brings up an interesting question: what technologies can magicians use while retaining the art form?

Brave New World.

I’d say around 3000 by 2125 and 1000 by 2225.

in theory, yes; discussion threads, yes; no for questions and answers. people on modern-style platforms can be assholes, but i have wanted to punch a guy from 2007 more times than i can count.

Funnily enough, I had the opposite experience. Was shocking to me to find out that the lore wasn’t originally from Wonder Labyrinth.

Same. I’d also really like to have a group to play Nechronica -The Long, Long Sequel- with.

I’d say around late 2027 to somewhere in 2028. A crash around five years past the release of ChatGPT seems reasonable.

I know it’s been a month, but: Sorry, I’m Not Into Yuri.

NAME OF THE MANGA. NAME OF THE MANGA. NAME OF THE MANGA.

BLISS STAGE MENTION

Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth is a fantastic experience.

as a brazilian it’s so intensely weird to see gringos turn açaí into this kind of mystical ultrahealthy superfood

I’m cutting the original storyline of Five Nights at Freddy’s off at the third game and removing Afton’s weird implied Pamela-Voorhees-meets-Gendo-Ikari motivation for his murders; he kills for a feeling of power and punishment. As much as I like the sci-fi elements, they utterly ruin his character. I’d also remove 3’s cutscene of him coming back: he’s dead, and he stays dead.

However, I do believe there would be room for sequels after that. I think it could be neat to have games skipping straight to the Vanny story and making her an actual developed villain as well as a real copycat killer, perhaps even starting a small cult of sorts around the Fazbear brand and Afton’s legacy.

It was a legitimate shock to me finding out that Hardwired… to Self-Destruct is from 2017.

Except “The Endless River”. That was… something.
