I'm a giant Kingdom Hearts fag

>Kingdom Hearts is based on Carl Jung
>Sora dives into his own heart in the beginning of the game has Sora dive underwater in a dream, a symbol of the unconciousness
>Jung believed that dreams reveal the unconciousness
>Sora lands on a round stained glass which is inspired by the Jungian Mandala.
>The Heartless come from Sora's own shadow. The Heartless are literally and metaphorically the Jungian shadow self
>Ansem has a Heartless (Terra the Guardian) as his shadow
>Concept art had Heartless with Rorshack inkblot tests as faces which isnt Jungian but yeah
>This means Kingdom Hearts itself is the collective unconciousness that connects all people and stores archetypes and stuff.
>Ansem is metaphorically the shadow of Sora he has to overcome on his process of individuation

I'm getting into it anyways. The Master of Master is Kingdom Hearts version of an evil Jesus Christ. He is Light. The King of Kings. Sent to destroy darkness (but you fucking can't because it's part of us). The foretellers are named after the 7 deadly sins and like his disciples. (12 + 1. Jesus and the 12 disciples and 7 deadly sins are why Nomura loves those numbers so much.) The black box is the Ark of the Covenant. He was sent here to die at the end of the gacha game only to come back.

And fuckig kingdom hearts is all a retelling of the movie the dark city. That's where the nobody stuff comes from.
>>
>>719810469
"woke" and "slop" hardly meant anything, pretty much ever
god i fucking hate memespeak

that aside though, what does that have to do with them faking sale figures? the average normie isn't concerned with that, they buy console because they wanna play funny compooter gayums, they don't know any brand besides xbox, playstation and the nintendo, so it's basically a 1/3 chance that they'll randomly pick it
>>
>>719810191
Hollywood is known for 'funny' accounting.
It's an open secret that box office numbers are largely meaningless.
Sony Pictures being in cahoots with the PlayStation division to accomplish this would not be shocking at all.

Is Birchy in this thread of something? Did he give up on trying to fuck that poor girl and move onto getting upset about indie games that not even /v/ cares enough about?

Oh yeah, theory- Chell was supposed to be a prisoner, her outfit, her disheveled look in the first game, it all makes her look like someone the world considered less that garbage being used as a lab rat, Aperture would buy death row prisoners from the government and use them in experiments.
They changed their mind on this in the production of Portal 2 but P1 was made entirely with this mindset.

I actually prefer the old look, she looked like a mess which suited this motif, the new look makes her look too much like a young adult movie heroine. There's a time and a place for a sexy character and this wasn't it in my opinion.
I mean, I still would, but that's just me I suppose.

People in Clair Obscur are certainly based on real living people and so they have certainly all real beings counterparts.
Gustave is certainly based on one of the writers that killed Verso and that is also probably why P Verso let him died and why the monster you are fighting right before is a symbolism made with hands and lamps (he probably lit the fire in the mansion with a lamp).

A seemingly unrelated set of Ubisoft shovelware games spanning Playstation 1 up to Wii have ambiguous text hidden in them that are all related to one another. No one has ever bothered to datamine and piece together these snippets of text since the games are shovelware that everyone overlooked. The texts look like nothing more than the occasional stray comment in the code, but they are part of a longform story that one of the programmers has been slipping into the games over a span of twenty years.

The official lore of the Virtual-On series states that the game is actually a cross-dimensional mind link device sent by the DNA Corporation across time and space to our reality because for some reason you are more likely to be "VO+" (a newtype) if you aren't totally immersed in cyberspace already like the inhabitants of the game's universe.

Not only is this in fact a reality, but the lore also makes note of the fact that the prototype of Fei-Yen, VR-014 Faiyubi, who was being built by a mysterious 3rd organization under Dr. Lillian Plajiner, achieved sentience spontaneously and escaped to an unknown region of the solar system.
The DNA Corporation then obtained her plans and made mass-production versions of her minus the sentience and orgasm laser. But here's the kicker: Faiyubi was the name given to the prototype by Dr. Plajiner. Fei-Yen was the name Faiyubi gave herself after escaping.
This means that Faiyubi might actually be the Fei-Yen you play the game as, rather than a normal mass-production model. If this is true and the dimensional transit of the arcade cabinet is true (in lore), then Faiyubi is herself capable of transiting time and space dimensionally and appearing in our dimension, making her the only fictional waifu in existence that is provably real.

Leaks have revealed that Concord was a $400 million USD project.
Because that figure is absurd but verifiable, it's appropriate to question why this was greenlit and funded.
Whatever information funders had about the PlayStation install base was almost certainly complete horseshit.
Now Sony and friends have whatever portion of that money didn't trickle down to Concord devs and some nameless investors have swallowed the loss - seems like a pretty standard racket to me where the bridge was just worth burning.

I do think that there is a massive spiritual influence in videogames starting all the way back since the beginning of the 5th gen of consoles, and the decline of the medium as a whole is the medium itself distancing from its metaphysical roots. After all, there is an invincible agreement over the "Soul vs Soulless" phenomenon that it's hard to point from conventional wisdom perspective. In the terms of the Vedas, this is part of a life cycle across the three phases of any event on existence: creation, preservation, and destruction; Creation (1-4 gen), Preservation (5-early7 gen), Destruction (mid7-onwards). The decline of vidya, in general, is a parallel with the upcoming aquarium age.

He’s clearly shown caring deeply about her
The problem is that the player doesn’t feel the same about her because all they get is a radio interview, some short flashbacks, and some scenes of her in present day doing things to nudge the plot along
Which is why the game’s attempt at making its own version of the Aerith death scene falls flat despite being devastating for Noct

I doubt even 1% of the English speaking world has read the Torah (the book that contains the story to which you refer). The Bible as Christians popularly mean, is the 4 New Testaments, Pslams, plus some arcana that comes after them, and maybe the first few chapters of Genesis.

>>719821059
>Quoran?
People would really benefit from reading this. Not because there's anything there, but for the fact that it's almost all incomprehensible nonsense. There's no progression of time or characters, events and locations are related in only the most abstract ways, large chunks of it are completely nonsense and had to be retconned into something servicable by later works like the Hadith, whether something is supposed to be narrative or a song or a stricture is completely open to interpretation. You read this shit and realize a billion people actually think this schizo babble is God's word and the state of the Muslim world finally starts to make sense.
>The Vedas?
These are a lot better and they don't pretend to be anything other than an accounting of (mythical ) events, songs, poetry. It's about like early Greek myths before Western scholars collated everything.
>Book of Mormon?
Fanfic. But the real miracle is that people who take this fanfic seriously somehow end up being very successful and quite pleasant. I could live in a world that was majority Mormon.
>Dead Sea Scrolls?
Addendums, maybe fanfic of their age, to the other Semite religious texts.
>Scientology textbooks?
No experience.

You took heat for this, but you're right. Screen tearing was a much larger problem 15 years ago when games ran at much lower FPS and screens had much lower refresh rates and when V-Sync wasn't yet common (and would add a lot of latency when yiou were gaming at 20 FPS at that). You could get "walking" tearing in games that ran at a close ratio with your monitor's refresh rate.

I had all my settings get reset after a driver update once and played without any V-Sync or G-Sync without knowing for a long time. Tearing just isn't the big deal it once was.

No, what I mean is sometimes you'll have a discussion with somebody in a thread about a game, and they say something you swear you've seen before.

To avoid complete bankruptcy back during the early 2000's, SEGA accepted financial assistance from the Yakuza, which turned them into debt slaves and handed over a significant amount shares of the company to the Sumiyoshi-Kai(largest Yakuza family in Tokyo) effectively making a video game company one of their many assets that they control.

TESVI will canonize the stormcloaks victory. The entire game functions upon the dichotomy of Anu and Padomay.
Alduin is defeated, Eye of Magnus contained, Thieves Guild returns to Nocturnal, Harkon is defeated = Anu, stability.
Companions break Hircines hold, Dark Brotherhood slays the Emperor, Mora gains access to the Skaals = Padomay, change.
But Anu and Padomay are always balanced against one another, which means another major plotline needs to resolve in change. Leaving only the Civil War, which fits with the Wulfhart Prophecy from Morrowind (time for the Empire to die).
Also TESVI will focus primarily on High Rock, since the Empires death will not be finished until High Rock breaks away.

Kek, I heard of him but never knew more, please tell

This guy used to pop into threads and get SUPER pissy, crying that the game is some kinda subversive tranny attack on him, the main character is voiced by both a man and a woman because it's an absurdist game with themes of duality, so he took it to mean the dev wants him to slurp on cock or something, and he just went off from there
His schtick kinda evolved over time, he realized it doesn't benefit him to be super angry so he tried different things, and his most recent deal is pretending to be a fan but making super obvious falseflag posts like "I'm an ENA fan and I'm obsessed and bad" shit that reads like a 7 year old who just figured out what falseflagging is but not how to do it would write
He thinks everyone who notices his samefagging is one person stalking him, he will immediately reply to himself going "wow I agree!", ironically another thing he claims others do. Basically run of the mill schizo who found something he hates and made it his life mission to shit it up whenever he sees it no matter the context, just posting a screenshot from this game is enough to set him off

I believe he accidentally left a namefag on while doing the usual ritual of pretending to be a fan and then mocking himself before, also replied as his own identity and then while pretending to be someone else but forgot to separate the quotes and posted it as one post

Sonic was the one on the Ark and is the real ultimate lifeform that was shot out the airlock and consequently lost his memories. His colors match Maria and his image song/ethos reflect her dying words. Shadow was made on Prison Island by Gerald and all of his memories are Sonic’s but wholly fabricated rather than experienced.

Undeniably wrong now, but SA2 in isolation could be read that way.

this is actually kind of true
Sammy, as a manufacturer of gambling machines, is widely assumed to have Yakuza connections.
Before 2000 Sega had "mysterious benefactors" and had huge capital and rockstar employees despite really high expenditures. Yu Suzuki drove a Ferrari to work in the fucking mid-'90s when the Japanese economy was in the shit.
Then at some point around '99 or so apparently one of the benefactors died or otherwise pulled out, Sega could not surmount their absolutely retarded (lack of) budgeting up to that point, and that's actually why the company went under. It had absolutely nothing to do with the Dreamcast's success or failure as a console but instead was a much-deserved crash after an entire decade of trying to keep the bubble from popping. They were always going to fail.

it's a great game series, highly recommended. supremo kino visuals and music. the arcade games have very little lore outside the manuals and the one ps2 story-based game, but there are some japanese novels and a lot of supplementary artbooks and loredumps. machine translation of japanese has gotten good enough to properly enjoy most of it now.

if you lose and go to the continue screen, the game shows Fei-Yen floating in an energy tube instead of being repaired in a mech bay like all the other robots. In these sequences, there are two other energy tubes that are empty. These are for her sister units, the prototypes of Angelan and Guarayakha, who also get similar continue sequences. All these Virtuaroids were built by Dr. Plajiner at Plant 0 and don't belong to any one faction, even though both DNA and RNA corporations apparently have their own mass-production models which you assume you select at the beginning of the game. Now, obviously from a gameplay standpoint, it's just to show a cute robot girl in a tube, right? If the continue screen shows your VR at what is assumed to be Plant 0, then she can only be the original one, and not one of the mass-production models.
while this doesn't change the gameplay mechanics or anything at all, i think it's good game design to not bore the player with details but still have tons of detail. All the weird "plant names" on the stages aren't just random bullshit they are actual places in a huge world that extends beyond the game into imaginary space. and the terminology they use for their world is exactly that: cyber-imaginary space.
juro watari is a kojimbo level story genius who was repeatedly shafted by his bosses into working on throwaway arcade games, and it's a shame his best work can't be appreciated more outside japan.

>>Pirates of the Caribbean started out as a movie based on Secret of Monkey Island.
I'm gonna need some explanation on that one buddy. Pirates of the Caribbean wasn't the first disney park ride made into a movie and when it came out Lucas Arts wasn't affiliated with Disney. How would this have worked?
>>
>>719841634
The cloud kingdom is also confirmed to have been above the cascade kingdom due to it having launched moon-pillars using gravity manipulation at the cascade kingdom (confirmed by brochures), so we know it's been above the cascade kingdom and the lost kingdom, both could contain yoshi's island, and both are next to areas where mario could've grown up (metro kingdom and mushroom kingdom), which means mario could've been raised in either kingdom, BUT we know that the storks came from the cloud kingdom regardless of where they were headed to.
Mario is only a baby bird and will at some point transform into a more avian appearance, his use of feather powerups to gain flight hint at this eventual transformation. Mario universe storks seem to work like cuckoo birds and replace human babies with baby birds that look like baby humans.
Mario's consumption of fire flowers is also of note, as a bird, he'd not be affected by their high spice content.
Mario's hollow bones allow him to jump high, and his love of shiny things is similar to that of a bird.

NTA but I had a think about it, POTC the ride had some skeletal pirates, but it didn't have the huge undead pirate vibe nor a heroic pirate and a villainous "zombie" pirate either
>>
>>719841780
It's no secret that LucasArts and Disney were working on a Monkey Island animated movie project together that eventually fell through. I posit that remnants of the Monkey Island script were eventually used in POTC part 1.

Guybrush Threepwood was split into two characters, Will Turner being his incarnation in The Secret of Monkey Island and Jack Sparrow being him after having achieved full pirattitude in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge.

The Governor Elaine became the Governor's Daughter Elizabeth, due to movie conventions around strong women at the time.

Captain Barbossa is The Ghost Pirate LeChuck in all but name, down to the eerie blue tint.

The Black Pearl itself is described as 'crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil Hell itself spat him back out', which is an apt description of LeChuck.

One sequence in the first half of the movie - Captain Jack attempting to break free of his chains - plays out like a point-and-click adventure puzzle. The end of this scene is an insult swordfight.

That other anon is right. It is much, much less prevalent in newer games. I've still been able to see it in a lot of them when I don't have vsync or vrr on, but that's probably because I know what I'm looking for.

>Iris loves to battle while N doesn't for the most part throughout the story, both seem to be prodigies at it and are at the champion level
>the cover legendaries each being owned by two great heroes in the past that eventually came to clash over truth and ideals
That 's about it but also given the nature of story and the titles being Black/White literally meant to invoke the saying of things not always being black or white it tracks that early on N was suppose to have an equal and opposite counter
