We all know there are some games you can only get if you grew up in a post-soviet country, but are there any you can only get if you grew up in Scandinavia?
>>736721081Yes, a few.
Embezzlement simulator
I have an old swedish dubbed version of lego rock raiders from kindergarten still.Also, there were a lot of smaller video games made here in the late 90s/early 2000s because of the PC Home Computer reform that made it easy to get a PC for yourself. Most kids grew up with a desktop, I think.
Games about starting a black metal band and stabbing your former bandmates to death?
>>736721081Tapan KaikkiTapan Kaikki 2The Ultimate Tapan KaikkiTapan Kaikki 4: Bloodshed
Finnish indie gaming scene was huge before "indie game" was a recognized word, I don't know how much of it was shared with those countries.
*knock knock*
You missed out on this kino
>>736721081Real ones remember back when Europa Universalis was called "Svea Rike" and only released in swedish.
>>736721081spooky game as a kid lol
>>736723116Literally has Majora's Mask elements in it. But yeah, pretty much every danish millenial knows that game with the same amount of nostalgia for it as Mario 64 and the like.
>>736721803That game pissed me off after I spent a bunch of time researching a space-elevator only for the game to go "Space elevators aren't real".I know that assholes, I thought I was playing a game, not in attending fucking class. Bunch of bullshit.
Zoomers would cream their pants about "liminal spaces" vibes if they found this game. It's meant to just be sort of quirky, funny, and child-friendly, but all of the Bellini games felt kind of haunting and eerie to me, but so satisfyingly mysterious because you click around to different locations and always see some kind of unique stuff. Then you'd trigger story developments on other screens, and suddenly find a character appearing in one place, and try to figure out where that leads.It's just a point and click I guess, but they're sorta done in First Person.
>>736723116Is this the one where the building is full of spiders? I remember they had a game like that.
>>736723061dungeon crawl SOVL
sunless sea but good
>>736721081Mermaid titties
Vi bygger en spunk!
>>736722080varg pls
there used to be a show on TV where kids could call in and play a game live(?)I guess the commands were relayed from the phone so I can only imagine the lag, the game was some dude on a flying carpet and the challenge was to dodge walls and traps in time so really it was the worst possible choice of game
>>736723424I dont think so, but, it has been ages since I last played.>>736723340Skeletter med kasketter spooked me the fuck out lol>>736723713Hugo?
>>736721081tyrone vs cops and Fursan al-Aqsa
>>736723764>Hugo?Sounds more like Oswald and he's confusing the carpet for a cape.
>>736721081norGAY is creatively empty and hardly produce anything of valueseriously, where are the video games?
>>736723116Pretty fun title with good atmosphere, although I kinda like the museum one more, it's a good blend of being both educational and upping the stakes, it's a real shame we're not given these kinds of small game studios that mature over each subsequent release.
I'm probably the only one that remembers this legit lost media shit. Barely any gameplay of it survives.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEkt0xIDSkA
>>736723424No, that's the sequel, this is the time trial game that takes place in a mansion at night .
The computer game adaptation of Dragonbane
>>736723116The 3d section in the dungeon scared the shit of me when I was a kid
>>736721950Snyggt byggt, fräschig kärra!
>>736723890>Själarnas BrunnHonestly I have such a hard time thinking Swedish can sound "cool" in fantasy terms, maybe I just think English does sometimes because I'm not a native speaker.
>>736721803And then we go on to create the fucking interstellar space ship that isn't real either. Fucking hypocrites.
>>736723986Depends entirely on circumstances. Fintroll is, unsurprisingly, a finnish band but the leadsinger sings in swedish because it sounds more evil.
>>736724064Do they sing about fina troll too?
>>736723116I never beat this due to the time limit sparkles you had to find. Literally trial and error optimization gaming for children. Thought it was fun though.The first game was way easier
>>736721950That game and the plane version were my freaking jam back in the day>>736723061Is that the point and click adventure game or something else again?
>>736723890ankstatus?
Probably the worst (but sovlful nonetheless) game I've played. I recall that the game's graphics were straight up covered in scanlines despite being 3D render, really odd.
>>736723061Muklenes verden is absolute cinema.
>>736724170Pettson is point and click. For anyone who hasn't heard of Sven Nordqvist. I highly recommend checking out his illustrations and paintings.
>>736721950This and the Sunes games. Sunes sportlov was kino.
>>736724259pure ragefuel trial and error gameplay
>Buttgodhttps://youtu.be/HeRtJm3Yies&t=2441
>>736723116my friend and i ran out of the house at one point when playing this, got me fucked up
>>736723116Magnus og Myggen was always really great, even the first one. Can't find that kind of comfy anymore
>>736723809Norway is a country filled with retarded farmers and fishermen that just happened to get lucky and find oil, the country of "Norway" is hardly a country at all and could've been a vassal of any European country without changing much.
>>736724358I replayed it a few years ago out of curiosity and it wasn't as hard as I remember. It just has insanely wonky timings where you have to do everything before it happens.
Too spooky as a kid
>>736724289female findus catgirl tomboy gf when?
>>736723713https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az23kqfs5bAwe had that in germany kino pure
>>736723809norway are more into movies, with død snø and trolljegeren
Don't remember much besides upgrading the silver mine in this
>>736724524Whenever the wider world get into anything swedish/finnish that isn't moomin or pippi
>>736723809Northern JourneyConan ExilesDreamfallOwlboyThose are probably the biggest ones that are known outside of the country, which is overall a very dissapointing selection yeah. In fact all of our culture is very lacking, most games are shit, most moviers are shit, most music is shit. We have some very famous painters,poets and singers from back in the day, but overall not much otherwiseNorway was never a very cultured land in terms of art, Sweden was the go to place for Norwegians artists to go to since they were more connected with the rest of Europe and having control of Norway back then. And now in modern days after we got the oil and is also easily connected to the rest of the world i guess we just became too spoiled and soft to have anything meaningful to say
>>736724181Yes, you can play as a duck
>>736723713Yeah that was Hugo I believe and fuck me the latency was several seconds so unless there was some brainiac who realized that everyone would fail very early.
>>736723986It's just a primary vs secondary language thing, everyone feel the same about their native language.
Sweden is the best country in the world. Thank god my parents decided to immigrate here
>>736723809Way too comfortable people not wanting to take risks.Even when N*rwegians take a risk and make a game it's like the absolute shittiest idea with zero care for perfectionism and who the game is for.
>>736724497>It just has insanely wonky timings where you have to do everything before it happens.yes, it's pure jank. Only way to beat it is trial and error and memorizing the entire route
>>736724524You and your wife
The Backpacker games were great. There was also a similar game where you basically played the Jetlag hide and seek across Sweden. Forget the name of it.
>>736724558>both just slop following the trend of their era
>>736724524Nigga we got Rita from Jungeldyret Hugo.Thank you danes but also fuck you for ruining my mind.
Friendly reminder to report and ignore the avatarfag.
>>736724558And they're absolute fucking shit, your examples are probably the biggest ones to come out of Norway in recent times yeah and they are an embarrassment. Norway does not make good movies, and i say that as a NorwegianI would show Flåklypa Grand Prix if i would show someone a Norwegian movie with some artistic value, but that's not very known outside of Norway
>>736721081Norway made that woke piece of shit, there where you play the leftist black girl and, it failed and didn't sell jack, alreayd forgot the nane, i'm guessing they are a creatively bankrupt country
>>736724621Honestly I wonder how they thought kids would beat it. Kids under 7 have intelligence worse than some birds for fucks sake.
>>736724662Shut up jeet
>>736724654I remember playing this shit and got stalked by a shadowy black figure through the worldmap and when he touched me he stole my money.
>>736723061That bell pussle had me stuck for way too long as a kid
>>736724289This was giga comfy as a kid
We had hexen 2 on our kindergarten computer. And age of empires 1
>>736723986I cringe super, super hard whenever I read porn in Swedish. But fantasy adventures? I think it works. Själarnas Brunn sounds pretty hardcore to me.
>>736724591I will now play your game. Except I won't since I can't find a torrent.
>>736724668>i'm guessing they are a creatively bankrupt countrycorrect, read >>736724464
>>736722080i like the one who stabbed a pedo fag to death better
>>736724684I can't fathom how it's profitable to make shovelware like these. Who buys them outside of grandparents thinking it's some hot shit their grandkids will like?
>>736724734Maybe it's on Archive.org.
>>736724658You got (one), (1), a SINGLE okay director which is Joachim Trier. I still think he peaked with his first movie, Reprise, but Oslo 31 August is great as well.
>>736724701>pusslekjeks

Not exclusively Scandi but I remember the Swedish dub of Dungeon Keeper being kino
>>736724558kraftidioten is good, not entirely Norwegian though
>>736721950ETT JORDSKRED HAR INTRÄFFAT
Norway desperately needs a proper crash, but every time we're close the oil fund bails us out. We'll never have our feet connected to the ground.
>>736724684Oh shit i loved Josefine as a little kid, i was over them by the time the ds came out though so i only played the first few pc ones. Didn't know they released console games as well
>>736724883>the lego website with a bunch of different games and cartoons back in the daykinoI remember when Ninjago was only available there before it made it onto television
>>736724820very nice
>>736724710It's comfy as an adult as well.
>>736724883>>736724989I just realized there exists a fanmade remake for Rock Raiders that came out a year or two ago.Haven't tested it myself, wonder if it comes with the different dubs.https://baraklava.itch.io/manic-miners
>>736724606Är du svart man?
>>736724667>Flåklypa Grand PrixBut it is. We call it Bjergkøbing Grand Prix here. Heck, someone uploaded it to jewtube 2 weeks ago even.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okbVfRV4RoQ
>>736725128Brun
>>736724668Funny how you assmad bads always laser focus on Norways part of it, but """forgets"""" that burgerland was equally involved in funding it.
>>736723561I never passed the mission where you have to build a boat for the rich bitch
>>736725338>swedish games have ojou-samasuhm, kino?
>>736725338What rich bitch?
>>736725504I don't recall either.I fucking wish our games had good girls but I can't recall a single one.
>>736725504The one who appears in the bakery/cafe in late game. You have to give her a lift but she doesnt want to get on the boat because it looks like shit or something. I tried all kind of items and combinations but they never worked.
>>736723563My mom got super offended when Jesper Klein voiced him saying "She's got bare breasts-- can I...???" and starts reaching out for them.Childhood was full of moments where women in my family were defenseless against the willful sexual objectification of women in games and movies, and me loving every fucking second of it.
>everyone forgetting the great dragon
>>736722875Finland is not Scandinavia.
>>736724820I tried to play about 15 years ago and, from what I can remember, it was really unstable & glitchy.
Scandis all only want 1 thing
>>736725698there's a similar quest near the start where you have to do a best looking boat competition, there's no way of knowing what the correct combo of parts is without trial and error
Which julkalender tie-in games did you have?For me, it was>Kaspar i NudådalenGigacomfy, good music>Håkan BråkanUtter ass, fuck the salt frog
>>736725925I had Håkan Bråkan. All I remember is that it was cryptic and the game you could play on the PC in the game had the worst music ever.
>>736725925>Men vafan Olle, vi har ju Myst hemmaHade också den med leksakerna, men det var bajs.
>>736725095I've played it. It's good. You get the full game running on modern systems, plus an option to play a remastered campaign as well as entirely new levels.I don't recall a way to play the dubbed version, but I didn't look too hard.Beyond that, there are some minor things that differ, but overall it's the game you remember.
Anyone else play this? I found it at local library as a kid.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpbG4MG_4B0
>>736725925The only one that matters of course.This shit was like Myst but cool.
For the REAL oldheads

>>736724714
>>736726004Spooky anti soft drink propaganda
>>736725275Calm down i didn't say nordics, i just said Norway, Sweden and Finland make a lot of good games like hotline miami and fear and hunger but you guys lik, idk it's something about you, you are like the mexico of scandis lol

Swedes please can you make battlefield good again?
>>736726002I'm really curious, both this and >>736724259 have the obnoxious scanlines (at least in the cutscenes). 3D games like Quake which came before this didn't need that shit, why did these games need it for the graphics?

>>736726536That's Finnish not scandi
>>736726604They're honorary.
Better question why can't Southern Europeans make games even tho they have a long history of culture and are super weebs?
>>736723061mucklor är coola
>>736726656Kind of somewhat, but they're not Scandinavian either way. That's shit Americans throw around and genuienly believe
>>736726683Sparks of Hope was fantastic. Real soulful European game, felt like playing Rayman in the 90's.
>>736723061>>736723116>>736723563>>736724883Fucking great games
>>736726683they can go outside and enjoy life instead. Why do you think so many games are made in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe?
>>736726604When someone says Scandinavian I assume they mean Nordic because culturally all so similar. Only at 4chan do I see people regularly point out the distinction.
>>736726683Probably just a culture of gaming in general. Here in Sweden we had a Home Computer reform that made it piss easy to get a PC at home in the 90s and 2000s and it just kind of carried over into a lot of kids and teenagers getting into vidya. That's why games like CS, DotA and WoW got really popular here.

Just taking this excuse to post this.
>>736726826And speak a completely different language from a completely different part of the language tree. They share some culuture with Scandinavia because of Sweden, but it's more like they're honorary Swedish instead of honorary Scandinavian. It's like an immigrant that has integrated well. They also share more of a culture with Polacks and Slavs than Scandinavians do which sets them apart further.Why can't they be proud of being their own country instead of wanting to be part of Scandinavia who has actually shared their cultural history together?

>>736724760Uhm, we're not pedophobes here on 4chan.Gb2reddit.

>>736726901Highest wealth tax in the world, which means that unless you're rich as fuck you get your taxes payed back to you every year, which rules.Second lowest rate of recidivism in the world, point towards a extremely functional, but lenient, justice system.A climate that makes for warm sunny summers where people flock tot eh beach while also have cold winters with snow.Country is self-sufficient in food, energy, and most materials, only importing luxury goods.No wars in hundreds of yeas, 80, if you count our involvement in the Winter War.Consistently rated as one of the happiest countries on the planet.
>>736724734Kinda weird Runequest never popped off in the Nordic countries considering our love of Anders And
>>736727097We also produce a lot of "unicorn" companies per capita because of the way the economy supports startups (almost as much as Germany with 1/8th the population)
>>736726826He does have a point, even with all the historical, cultural, and societal similarities, Finns are linguistically completely different and also ethnically distinct.In America everyone might be white to you but no one here would mistake a Finn for a Dane if they were to open their mouths.
>>736726926How does it compare to the 70s live action version?
>>736726926Holy fuck that looks bad
>>736726808I do feel somewhat different, even if there's the obvious similarities due to ~500 years of being Österland
>>736727184>kött ur
>>736727184This image is very unrealistic. There's no way a Finn would sit that close to others.
>>736726958>They also share more of a culture with Polacks and Slavs than Scandinavians do which sets them apart furtherThat's just blatantly false. Finland is a Nordic country culturally with a funny language, there isn't anything to even debate about that
>>736727289Well Poland was part of a personal union with Sweden for some time and they've practically been our 3rd rival in the Baltic aside from Denmark and Russia. The Carolus Rex statue in Sweden was also erected by Polish migrants, if I recall.
>>736727143drakar och demoner started off as a translation of BRP, which was also made by chaosium and related to runequest. The people that iterated on drakar och demoner took a lot from runequest, which is why it even has ducks
>>736727178Well yeah, Sweden is a hugely capitalist country with a lot of competition between companies, which is facilitated through some of the most socialism policies anywhere in the world.Retards online like to portray capitalism and socialism as separate ends of a spectrum, while the to are completely different kinds of system, one being a economic system, while the other is a system of governance. Heavy socialism means that there is room and ability for startups to not only exist but to succeed even when next to juggernaut companies in the same industry. Otherwise we just get hegemonies that eat up any smaller competition, which is what's happening in most other places around the world.
>>736726808Finns are different than us but I would feel more at home in Finland than I would in say, Germany, Poland, Netherlands or England, if that makes sense. And I'm saying this as a Dane, who's even further from Finland geographically and culturally than the Swedes or Norwegians.

>>736727184
>>736726958>Why can't they be proud of being their own country instead of wanting to be part of Scandinavia who has actually shared their cultural history together?Because they also share a border with Russia and despite its problems being Swedish is still infinitely preferable to being Russian

>>736727462Why do they have to choose between Sweden or Russia? Why not just be Finland?It's not like i dislike Finland at all, and i'd be all for us being buddies and in an alliance against Russia and America as a northern power, Finland is goated when it comes to millitary power and they're nice people. But the fact is that they're not Scandinavian, and Scandinavians don't see them as Scandinavian, only foreigners like America puts them as that

>>736727484Yeah electronics prices especially are fucked over here, even adjusted for income and everything the prices are always at least 30% higher here
>>736727097There are high taxes on everything which affects regular working class people even when buying food at a supermarket. That form of aggressive taxation is pretty much legal theft, can't see why anyone would praise that when a ton of tax revenue also is thrown away on things that doesn't benefit anyone.Crime has skyrocketed the past decades as a result of mass immigration and doing very little to tackle the most serious crimes. A topic that's beaten to death at this point but had to be mentioned in response to the recidivism rate and justice system. They'll bring in migrants from middleast/africa and won't even always deport those who commit rape while imposing harsh penalties sometimes including prison for fake crimes like selling a few homemade pastries without a permit, marginally speeding, or carrying a knife to go fishing as a few examples. That's a corrupt legal system and anarcho tyranny. And the rate of recidivism is irrelevant when the crime rate has gon up as much as it has which creates a lot more victims.In addition to that>very little free speech>suppressed sexual rights, all prostitution criminalized>men and white people are le badThe country doesn't even have some of the most basic freedoms that plenty western countries have and most media narratives are subversive psyops. There are good things about Sweden but the best country? Not even close

>>736727631Nobody in Finland wants any relation to Sweden. The 3 countries up north seem very closely related and it's dumb to separate Finland from Sweden and Norway when talking about that region of Europe, that's all there is to it.
>>736727854I've never heard anyone in Norway say Finland is Scandinavian, in fact i've only heard the opposite. Maybe Sweden does because of their history together
>>736726901DABESTDABESTDABESTDABEST
>>736727631>Why do they have to choose between Sweden or Russia? Why not just be Finland?What are you talking about? Finland IS its own thing already, despite very being a Nordic welfare state like all other Nordics, and that's not a choice that was forced on them by anyone. None of these cancel each other out.
>>736727184>Spoken Danish can prove tricky to grasp particularly for Swedes, but Norwegian bridges the gap between Danish and SwedishAs a Norwegian I can't understand Danes that is from anywhere north Jutland, even then I can barely understand them.Swedish share like 80-90% vocabulary with Norwegian, but the rest of the words are completely different to Norwegian for some reason.Even Norwegian is always as intelligible to other Norwegians.>t.

>>736727950Swedish has a ton of French loanwords as far as I understand, came in around the 1700s. Some of our kings around that time thought Latin was cool too.
>>736728083Sweden had a French king for a while after all
>>736727950Just because you’re retarded doesn’t meant everyone else is.t. østlending
>>736728169That was in the 1800s, though it was throughout the 1700s where French became lingua franca for a bit. Nowadays everyone just fuses english into swedish because they're very similar but with somewhat different dictionaries.

>>736728083Yeah so does Norway and Denmark too. It was just fashonable in Europe in general at that time.

>>736728169>>736728249>>736729072Its even more interesting than that, because it was Napoleon who pushed for Bernadotte, one of his generals, to become king of Sweden thinking that it would turn the country into a puppet state.He then invaded Swedish Pomerania thinking Bernadotte would be on his side. But Bernadotte said he had sworn an oath to defend Sweden which he refused to break and so formed with sixth anti-french collation and was instrumental in defeating Napoelon once and for all.He may have come to Sweden as a Frenchman, but he turned native real quick.

>>736729505Norway found oil on a joint adventure with Philips (yes, that Philips). Prior to it being found, no one was willing to invest or even entertain the idea of looking for oil in the North Sea. Famously, Norway tried to go in on a joint operation with Sweden in exchange for 50% of Volvo, but the Swedes turned them down, and are still seething to this day.
>>736728927>I'll never understand you guys ended up with such a retraded why of counting.It's retarded, because I faintly remember cheques having you write it out like the Norwegians and the Swedes. For an example, 60/70/80/90 would be tres/halfvjerds/firs/halvfems in daily speak but you'd have to write it out like seksti/syvti/otti/niti etc. on the cheques.

>>736724064>Swedish sounds more evilI suppose we all have our own experiences. I'm from UK, living in Norway. I've always thought that Scandinavian languages sound really faggy: tons of vowels and soft consonants, whereas Finnish has slightly less vowels and tons of rough consonants like R, P, T and K. For example even simple swear words like "fucK" are somewhat rough with sharp K, Swedish equivalent is gay and soft "fitta" whereas Finnish is aggressive "viTTu!", spat out with angry seethe. Finnish swear words are especially good since most of them are full of sharp consonants, making them sound angry and spiteful.
>>736730396https://youtu.be/xGaucDp9Rls?si=pPjUXjCyNzqwtBJqCertified classic I cry evry time
>>736730949It doesn't have to be
>>736731538I'd say it's more common to just say "fan" (lit. "devil") than saying "fitta"
>>736731684FittE is more powerful
>>736731538>gay and soft "fitta"The funny part is that fitta means pussy, which would be the opposite of gay. That aside, swedish sounding more evil is allegedly the singers own reason for doing it that way.
>>736731575i knowden där är mesta roliga med internet
>>736730175>implying
>>736731538One thing I really like doing in Swedish is just chaining insults together, it works really well for some reason.
>>736731538If all you heard was southern Swedes speak, I wholeheartedly agree they sound faggy as hell. But there's a world of difference between southern and northern Swedish. Just saying. And I don't even know how Skåne exists.
>>736731797my old native tongue teacher once went on a rant on the oxymoronism of the finnish expression "vitun homo" (fittas bög)
>>736731956>Helvetes jävlar! Förbannade jävla biljävel!Despite being a children's show and relatively tame. This scene speaks to me.
>>736727848They wont because Finland. Russia has 2 million people military. Finland alone has 1 million, similar to Ukraine that has 7 times their population. Ukraine has been a bitch to conquer despite it being mostly open field, where Russia should be able to easily utilize their superior numbers and gear to overpower their opposition. Finland is mostly forest and swamp. You cant conquer it as easily and Russia is already struggling with Ukraine. Furthermore Finland is part of EU and NATO so you'd risk being evenly matched or even outright mogged in terms of manpower/equipment.
Is this accurate?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZ-TOQoLB-o
>>736731684"Fan" is just as soft and gay, but I stand corrected nonetheless.>>736732056Now that you mention it, I agree wholeheartedly. Here in Norway, when you visit north as someone from abroad with middling Norwegian, you first think they're mad at you for no reason, then you understand that its just how they talk. Northern Norwegians and Swedes have based chad language, whereas southern ones are soft and faggy.
>>736731538Vittu doesn't sound very frightening to me, but I guess you might have a point with perkele especially if you elongate the r
>>736732523although the nice thing about vittu is that it is very easy to read from the lips and you'll quite commonly see finnish athletes saying -ttu often kinda swallowing the first syllable
>>736721081Flåklypa Grand Prix was a huge success in 2000, every kid in Norway played it either at home or school computers.
>>736732410Northern Swedish from Norrland always sounded like the halfway point between Finland-Swedish and Southern Swedish to me. It's probably there where the general accent's from.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOZIREhAxag
>>736732523you gotta say it like a finn, shortened first syllable and you let the second syllable out with a snap of the tongue, not vihtu but vi-too kind of like "ffffffuck" in english
>>736721081Pickled herring simulator
>>736732685Some of the fennoswedish dialects are practically untintelligible. Case in point would be the hometown of KAJhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbqWoAH5nYU
im not even finnish and i played the goat
>>736732868yeah vitutus is also a great word and state of mind that the closest english equivalent that I know of "being pissed off" doesn't really do justicehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PbWsF-8aJU
>>736721081Games about creating a trust-based society where everyone has it so good that it attracts shitskin trash that ruins everything?
>>736732868it does evoke powerful feelings because you don't really shorten the first syllable, you try to keep it inside by biting your lower lip but the ttu then slips out. finnish mythology is all about the power of woeds

>>736723713Rummel & Rabalder?
>>736734365The thought of Anna or Lotte spewing an insult like that is making me laugh way more than it should.
>>736731956I do this more than I'd like to admit.
>>736732090He/she didnt understand Finnish then. In Finland, curse words are literally that - words to curse. Tolkien took huge inspiration from Finnish language and thats shown even in the movies: when Gandalf claims "You shall not pass" he isnt just being bombastic. He is casting a spell (or willing to being) a statement: its impossible for you to pass, which is what ultimately happens when the bridge collapses. Similarly "vitun homo" consists of two curse words, combining to essentially what is cursing someone with double-gay: you're a person consisting of vagina (ie extremely effiminate), and gay (ie extremely effiminate). Stating this means you're so angry with someone you claim he represents (or should represent) everything that is double-gay.
>>736734727Did anyone actually beat that shit during call-ins? Remember watching it on TV and wondering why everyone sucked so bad, but it makes perfect sense with all the delay.
>>736731956What are some good swedish insults? All i know is fan, jävel, dansk, fandanskjävel
>>736734952depends on how many words you want to chain together, the possibilities are endlessI personally like the archaic word patrask as a suffix
>>736735042I'm mostly looking for components to chain myself
>>736734952For me it's horunge and bögjävel. Mostly because you can combine them in different ways with other insults/swear words.
>>736734952
>>736735212tusen tack i'm sure this will come in handy on the mandatory swedish that all finnish university degrees have
>>736733518>>736734924To add to this: in Finnish, pretty much unique to almost any language, you have two different layers of swearing. Mormal one is calling "sadattelu" - you are cursing because you are somewhat miffed about something. Say your bicycle tire popped - you might go with "sadattelu" and curde the situation with "voi vitun vitun vittu" (ie fuck this fucking fuck). This is very different from when you're really angry and spitting words out with utmost hate. Even though the words might be same, directing them directly at someone means you're a lot more serious. Barring narcs of course who curse at everything because they're narcs.
>>736735212Always warms my heart to see translators taking great care with Haddocks tirades, regardless of language.

>>736735042The funniest thing is that the 4chan custom of suffixing "fag" is technically perfectly legit in Swedish, but it's not used for endearment in the same way. Calling someone a Nybög is pretty much a grammatically correct translation of Newfag.
