everyone remembers this one but for some reason growing up my family had its lesser known sequel "dot and the whale" on tape instead. all i remember about it is she steps on a sea urchin or something and gets poisonous hole in her foot. then maybe an octopus sucks it out?

Dot rules. They uploaded all of them to Youtube a few years ago.

Linked to that scene which apparently has heavy Chozo vibes

no one really knows exactly, but they're doing Something to streamline ARR in some capacity, because they're very aware that its the weakest part.

they even added new game+ late last year to let people go back and replay and part of the story they wanted, except for ARR which I guess won't get added to ng+ until the revamp

They're basically just cutting a lot of the more tedious quests and making sure the main story quests give enough EXP that you won't need to grind at all.

They actually did an overview in the last live letter, they're cutting out and truncating 13% of the quests, adjusting the experience yield so that you can get to 50 with MSQ alone, and making My Little Chocobo and the Crystal Tower required content.

You are dark inside


Imagine, waking up one morning, having spent the night at the house of your new boyfriend. You roll over, and wiping the sleep from your eyes, to see this man, James, looking at you. In a moment of emotion too powerful to be wrong, you think "I'm going to spend the rest of my life with this man".
Then you get up, carefully step through a maze of Funko Pop, and make breakfast together.

What I'm saying is that James is unwell, but the other person who signed that contact is a monster.

30 bucks a week is two full-price video games a month which is like, kind of a lot but not absolutely insane. Those two videogames are at least 80 hours of entertainment though instead of a piece of clutter clogging your home and doing nothing else

some folks love the cold familiarity of Funko pops, and unchallenging way to be reminded of unchallenging media that they enjoyed
