exodus huh! it didn’t feel that different to me at the time, I wonder what struck you so much about this one?
Chris_v The list talk reminded me of a recent list I meant to ask about on here: marc normandin’s 100 best Nintendo published games. I think there are quite a few caveats and stuff (been a while since I read it), but I remember finding it interesting Worth noting I am a Nintendo disliker so maybe the Nintendo enjoyers will think differently
tapevulture this was a good one dude. hope k thor can be on more often. that lightning round was too good
esper when I asked @ripley “what is the simpsons of video games” they said “kingdom hearts, because it overstayed its welcome and has so many guest stars”
exodus esper that is a good one!! except: kingdom hearts was never particularly influential(!?), so it only works on that particular vector
LuigiIsThePope That lightning round was fun! I’m proud of how quickly I got the first one, but slightly less proud that I shouted “What is Blizzard?” like it was goddamn Jeopardy.
tapevulture The hollow knight is actually a little bug so segata sanshiro would stomp its tiny ass in about 2 seconds, @Gaagaagiins will concur
Gaagaagiins tapevulture The hollow knight is actually a little bug so segata sanshiro would stomp its tiny ass in about 2 seconds, @Gaagaagiins will concur He’s just a little guy, even among his own scale of guys!
exodus tapevulture I really wanted to make a bid for this bearcat making it to the end but I couldn’t make it happen - maybe if I’d remembered the specifics of the forms!?
Gaagaagiins Gaagaagiins oh, wait, right, The Hollow Knight, not the little guy. Well, same thing. And he’s not that big either. Spoiler, but actually, technically
dylanfills Gaagaagiins I think there is a lot of contesting to be made in the decisions regarding Hollow Knight in this bracket. I would maybe say that Celeste Mountain should have taken the first round, but I’ve played all the C-sides of Celeste and gave up at the last boss of Hollow Knight, so maybe that’s saying something
whatsarobot I keep forgetting to mention this, but the Family Feud-style “good answer” has become my favourite running joke. Makes me laugh every time. Also @esper - If I may ask, what is the wacky “wahey” sound clip you use as your audio signature? It’s another little bit of the show I enjoy.
esper whatsarobot it is indeed the klonoa “wahoo!!” love that little goofball, and that particular sound effect is really burnt into my brain. I even snuck it in (very, very quietly) to the goblin bunker dj set we made
exodus @whatsarobot it’s gotta be klonoa they never should’ve localized the “wahoo” into american english (see the final game). It’s canonically “wahuu” with that forced “I’m trying NOT to make the う sound” japanese pronunciation.
