Shockwave, upgrading Megatron: Now, most sparks couldn’t withstand this voltage, but i’m fairly certain your spark…
Shockwave: *performs counter-shock, Megatron’s spark explodes*
Megatron: What was that noise?
Shockwave, hiding exploded spark: The sound of progress, my liege.
Watson: Holmes, when was the last time you got any sleep?
Holmes: I don't know, 2/3 days, not important. I don't need sleep, i need answers. I need to determine where in this swamp of unbalanced formulas squatteth the toad of truth.
If you genuinely believe in personality types (like MBTI), five stages of grief, "empaths", other pseudopsychology, or astrology, i will fucking kill you.
Some of my ideas. I think their communication is a constant mix of vocal, sign, and body language at the same time.
Written language
Old Cybertronian was written in runes that were clawed or carved (handy before the invention of paints and brushes)
Modern and semi-modern Cybertronian can be painted with a brush, similiar to how Asian languages traditionally were (Transformers Prime episode "T.M.I" had Bulkhead paint sigils with a mop as a brush)
Cybertronian has alphabet like in cyrillic, as opposed to symbols being words like in japanese (makes more sense at least for modern Cybertronian as it's mostly typed on devices)
Vocalized language
Cybertronians all have some sort of engines, and aside from running their internal organs, the engine is also used for vocal communication
They can growl and purr like canines and felines, and might also be able to screech
Might also be able to make more mechanical noises, like whirring wheels and grinding gears?
Sign language/body language
I think most of them had four or five fingers, so humanlike sign language is possible. It's much more widespread among abled Cybertronians than sign language is among abled humans.
Wings, doorwings, and winglets are used to emote; for example they stand up, droop, flutter, and spread in threat display (there's one problem with this hc; many of them don't have any of these)
Finials express similiarly to cat and dog ears (again a problem with the hc; many Cybertronians do not have finials)
They also have more human-like body language signals because they're bipedal and have two arms and legs
I have completed the game, i guess. A weird place to end the story though. I thought it was going to continue and that there was some kind of an actual final battle.
Some people are... just really stupid. For example, two internet conversations about Inglourious Basterds;
I had to explain to a guy on youtube that Landa killed Hammersmark so he could take over her role in Operation Kino, since he obviously can't take the credit for being the mastermind if Hammersmark, who's also famous, is around to contradict him. This guy went "that can't be the case because Aldo and his boss will know the truth!!!". For fuck's sake. Aldo's boss is knowingly letting Landa off the hook and lying about his involvement in Operation Kino, or at least telling Landa he will do that. The masses would propably not listen to Aldo if he tried to tell the truth. But Landa misestimated Aldo, so he gets the knife in the final scene.
I suggested that the pipe thing in the opening scene was some kind of a 'mine is bigger' joke, and this (different) guy went "whatever, i'm just going to stick with what the director says". Do you, do you understand that directors and writers are never going to explain literally everything that happens in the story. Is thinking for yourself such a foreign concept???
I had to explain to my mother that Shadow Weaver is manipulating Catra. Then she went "I don't read into things that much!". What's wrong with you, mom?
