I love making fun of these kinds of signs. But I read this right immediately, and had to try to read it wrong… so I give this layout a pass. But if the pub is called the “cube” it is unforgivable that the sign is an oval and not a square… so it fails

A swing is a swing. Weather you are cutting the air, your opponent, a sword or whatever. She isn’t dodging, they are sword fighting.

They are both saying it. He is mocking her, she is quoting her teachings The word bubble has the pointy bit pointing at both of them.

We last saw them fighting on page 168, like 30 pages ago, before gogagog was even called to this fight. and maya is swinging her sword in the double spread. It is assumed that they have been fighting off page for the last 30 pages and this dialogue is telling us how it has been going.

That’s incubus’s point…. That’s his ship. He hasn’t been cutting it. She has.. You calling those cuts unclean is making incubus’ point

Then what covered the thing behind him with cuts? He is making fun of her for attacking and not hitting. Telling us how the fight has been going off screen. It’s a comic. There are implied actions between frames. We have not been watching the whole fight.

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Ya. Isnt that the point? He has no scratches on him. But the giant stone face behind him is covered with cuts, as in maya has thrown a ton of cuts at him and “missed” covering the stone face with cuts. maya arrived at this duel already covered with damage

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I assume those are her cuts. He is makin fun of her for not just cutting once I thought the face might fall appart into bits and fall on him. Like she has been trying drop a big stone nose on him…. But they are standing upsidedown under the ship… so I don’t think the stone bits would fall on him

Google says that control has been played by 20 million people between sales and game pass So It’s a pretty mass appeal For all its strangeness. Worrying thing about resonant reviews is that the character action sickos arnt impressed AND the narritive/lore sickos sound disappointed. Weird niche

Indie does not mean “made for no money” it means independent…. And E33 was made by an independent studio. A game that cost 7 trillion dollars to make is still an indie game if the studio making it is independent.

I love “Casablanca III: play it again, again, Sam “ that twist when she flies away at the end only for the plane to land at Casablanca all over again, setting up the sequel. pure existential horror

Coffee doesn’t stop you from sleeping, or being tired. it just stops you from feeling tired. If you try to stay awake the coffee will help you. If you close your eyes and rest your head the coffee isn’t stopping sleep. many drivers on late night road trips have learned this lesson.

Wild. I barely touched the ground that whole fight. Silk line at him when he charges and he can’t hurt you, beast fly pogos on his head. If you can get to the roof you can drop the rocks on him, unless you used them against the chorus boss

Uhh. Out of 15 million population in New York State, 4.6 million voted Harris while 3.5 million voted trump. Out of 31 million pop in Texas, 6.5 mill vited trump, while 4.7 mill voted Harris. Technically i Guess your right. But a half full swimming pool holds more water than a full cup.

You can like something that is deeply broken. You can enjoy a bad movie or cheap food, or burnt coffee. Something can be, rightfully, lowly rated while also being your favourite. Lots of people have valid dislike and crit of veilguard especially dragon age fans. Others can still love it Both true

Tears of the kingdom has way more story than BoTW. Heck it has like 3 times the characters as breath and they are more integral to the plot. Tears of the kingdom is a mystery with has repeating narritive motifs for heck’s sake. Wild to say that Tears has less story that breath

Why make a cannon that can shoot hundreds of miles, when every key holder and their commanders have the power to teleport. You fired your ICBM at my battle ship, I teleported my battleship into your face. The armies of 7 million universes just appeared in your capital city. It’s a knife fight

Solomon David moved a sun, presumably with his bare hands. I imagine that whatever weapons they are using, that can crack ships made out of the bones of literal gods… are a step or two beyond modern missiles. I imagine a ballistic wizard or gun witch or artillery seer or somthing beats an ICBM

I bet that they were doing game jam style dev internally. Someone grabbed art and threw it in as placeholder texture as they were spitballing art style. That person left. Management moves games release date up a year, they panic announce with the most recent build and the placeholder art.

The hosts of this podcast were divided on this decision. The fans of the pod can also be divided without that being a mark against their moral character. Let’s not pretend that it’s a cut and dry “with us” or “against us” situation.

I second this. But it is so closely hooked into Andor that it might be way too painful to hear them discuss things like Perin and Mon mothma’s relationship without talking Andor and breaching their boycott

I feel the opposite. Dead ends are the key. Gardens only spawn on the sides of the house, so never draft a garden. Draft as many dead ends as you can to clear them from the pool early and make later drafts more likely to not be. Push deep into the house and backfill so that you don’t get stuck.

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 27/04/2025

There was a point where I was able to consistently get to the anti chamber. Knowing the rules for how things spawn, upgrading rooms, doing a prep day to earn “tomorrow” rewards to set up the draft on the next day. Geting the permenant power ups. You can rig things

Who said revolution? With only two parties you need to make one party come and get your vote where you are. If you play price is right with your vote you only encourage 1 party to be just slightly less bad than the other while counting the other parties voters.

Are you actually arguing that people in Europe have the same misunderstanding that causes Americans to misinterpret moderate left leaning policies for communism? Whatever quibble you are trying to raise has nothing to do with the point I was making.

Theodan was personally noble and good and decent. But a vote for Theodan was a vote for Saruman who was controlling him. And a vote for Saruman was a vote for Sauron who controlled him. Eomere was a hero for refusing to follow Theodan when he was corrupted and coming back when he was not.

Eastern Europe is still Europe. There was a wall between east and west Germany as I recall…. And Germany is in Europe. Let’s not pretend that communist movements were active across Europe before the Cold War.

Theodan needed to have the curse lifted, denathor needed to ursurped, the elves stayed in their Forrest’s, and the men of the north only acted once their country was in flames. The alliance of good was not on the ballot in lord of the rings. It arose in response to the broken state of the world.

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

Yes. The American Democratic Party is right wing. Obama would be the right wing candidate in most other countries in the world. In America Bernie sanders is accused of be communist. But if he was a politician in Europe, where communism actually existed, he would be considered just left of center

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 15/04/2025

The last alliance would be awsome. But it’s more like: support Sauron, or Saruman. The last alliance isn’t even on the ballot

Trump is objectively horrible. But you don’t get a trump in a vacum. You don’t get people ok with a trump or a system that enables a trump out of no where Trump’s evil is built on the legacy of lesser evils You can’t fix that by voting for it again. You just add a brick to the bottom of the tower

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

Lots of people got angry when trump sent people to guantonimo bay. Democrats among them. Biden used guantonimo. So did Obama, bill clinton. Guantonimo has been evil the whole time. Democrats had a chance to stop its use for 50+ years Trumps evil is built on a legacy. Lesser evils are still evil

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 04/04/2025

Your living in a world where there are only two political parties, one of which must be right and the other wrong. Choosing the lesser of two evils is still a choice for evil. Both cups are poisoned, choosing the lesser one just kills you slower. You gotta flip the table, take the third option

If you guys manage to Finnish rebels just before starting Andor and then, I assume go to season 7. Man AMCA is maybe at the start of the hottest, hot streak ever. I am a bit sad Andor is releasing 3 eps at a time just becuase I assume it means we will get 4 pods about it instead of 12.

010

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 07/02/2025

Great pod. Loved the speculation at the end about where these dangling plot lines are going. I hope it’s somewhere weird. But dollars to donuts these “treasure planets” are just to justify the New Order. Swing by child soldier planet for an army, then drop by money world to fund it.

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

Rebels is good, bad batch is awsome, visions was great, clone wars has many of its best eps under Disney and also all of season 7 which was fire. Tales of the Jedi is good. Resistance, was a boring show but was also made for very young kids. One dud as far as animated shows go

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 17/01/2025

Time has slowed down in the Hunter X Hunter episodes they were about to watch. So naturally the podcast has also slowed down real life time as well to match. Everyone thinks that it’s Friday, but we are still only 10 seconds into Tuesday waiting for the ep to drop.

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 15/01/2025

Skeleton crew was good. I think people are so used to starwars stuff being mid-bad lately that the hype is not there. A new starwars thing is not an event, it’s a thing you might check out if you hear that it is good down the line. Well exept andor, I am making popcorn for Andor season 2

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 15/01/2025

If you’re using a scale at all then you are comparing the game to others to create an objective point of comparison. Saying “this is a 9” is saying that it is different from the games that are 7’s. The “like it or don’t like it” scale gets us to the useless rotten tomatoes method

010

zdesert.bsky.social @zdesert.bsky.social · 15/01/2025

It is already competitive. It’s interesting. Games like dota or league have a cast of over 160 characters with their own kits. Not every character needs to be viable in tournaments for the games to be balanced or tournament ready A hero shooter with that big a cast may be more balanced

Walking around vacuuming up all the cheese wheels while chucking weightless bottles at dragons was charming in Skyrim. Being able to pick up all the junk in a realistic, NASA-punk space station felt pointless and cringe. Such a confused game design with such a weak story.
