The Boomsprockets at Home

[lordsmaf]

I like how like… with every new piece of Star Wars media that paints Tatooine as more and more of a shithole where everyone is a murderous crimelord the funnier it gets that Luke Skywalker just grew up on this planet completely normal. Like I’m envisioning a normal day at Tosche Station where a cyborg biker and a  Twi'lek prostitute are stabbing each other over a bag of spice and then it just pans over to this fresh-faced nancy boy sitting at a table sipping on his blue milk going “oh golly, I sure do love power converters!”

Why do the new Pokémon graphics have to look so bad? We've seen what the Switch can pull off but Pokémon Scarlet and Violet look dated even by last-gen standards

The budget for these games is probably insane, so whyyyyy are the graphics so bad???

[theboomsprockets]

Basically, the game’s budget probably isn’t as big as you think it is.

Contrary to popular belief, Gamefreak doesn’t really have that much control over the Pokemon franchise as a whole.  Gamefreak makes the mainline games, and that’s literally it.  Everything else - the manga, the anime, the spin-off games, and of course the merchandise - is under Nintendo and the Pokemon Company.  They’re the ones who are really running the show.  Gamefreak mostly follows their orders.

What does this have to do with Scarlet/Violet’s seemingly low budget?  Mainly the fact that Gamefreak doesn’t really get a say over how much time/money they get to develop mainline games.  As you can see, they don’t often get enough of it.  Because the rest of that money goes into merchandising, developing spin-off games, anime production, and of course, Nintendo’s own pockets.

I don't normally do this but...

If you have heard of Games Workshop's recent change in attitude towards fan-based content, please contact GW to complain about it.

https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Complaint-Portal

The above link will take you through to their complaint's portal, please make sure that you click yes to get a response.

This will mean that they have to write a response. If enough people do this, they will have to realise that maybe these new terms and conditions aren't the right thing.

One of the biggest reasons that I am asking you all to do this is because The Emperor has a Text to Speech Device is going on indefinite hiatus, due to these draconian terms and conditions (which is fair enough as explained by @alfabusa new video).

The fact remains that this glorious work made the hobby I enjoy more accessable. Several people I know, including my fiancé, enjoyed this and made them more interested in 40k. For quite some time now, this has been a gateway to the hobby that GW paid nothing for.

Would like to ask that people remain civil when registering complaints, being rude won't help. Just try to get across the positive points of fan-based work as well as addressing the community's disappointment in the new terms.

Two verses of “wellerman” is about 20 seconds, which is coincidently the perfect amount of time to wash your hands for. Thus the rise of sea shanty popularity is actually the newest faucian endeavor to promote public health in this essay I will

im surprised no one’s posted this yet but arin and dan referring to the virus as the “backstreet boys reunion tour” is the funniest thing to come out of all of this

Ok, so here’s some things I want from Season 4 of Cobra Kai:

Johnny and Daniel start arguing in front of the kids and one of them goes “mom and dad are fighting again”

Hawk and Demetri actually talk about what happened the past 2 seasons and reconcile (obviously the apology was rushed since it was in the middle of a fight)

When they reconcile, Demetri quotes alta when Zuko and Iroh met “I was never angry with you, I was sad because you had lost your way” and then Hawk calls him out for being a dork, because I am 100% certain that they watched that show together, and then they hug

Hawk has a heart to heart with both Johnny and Daniel. I mean, they’ve already shown how good of an actor this kid is with his trauma from being bullied and showing the turmoil he felt all of season 3 leading up to the final fight. Give this kid his time to shine. And when I mention Daniel; I want him to tell him he was the one who trashed the dojo (not the only one, but it was mainly him)

Robby gets a chance to be torn between his morals and Kreese. Because we obviously know that is coming. Robby isn’t a bad kid, he’s just tired of never coming first and if he sees what was happening and what the Cobra Kai’s were doing, i don’t think he would go along with it.

Johnny gets his head out of his ass and makes up with his son. I mean, I am pretty sure Miguel would understand if Johnny told him that he needs to focus on Robby. They’ve already had that talk about how he’s let him down since the day he was born.

Johnny and Daniel get drunk and hug it out. I mean, I feel like this would happen eventually, but maybe not in season 4 since they just joined forces.

I want to see Sam and Hawk actually fight each other. Not like a real fight, but like sparing against each other because I want to see who would win.

And one more about Hawk and Demetri: going along with the sparing thing, I kinda want them to be sparring and hawk accidentally hits him too hard or something and Demetri is actually hurt for a second and Hawk freaks out. Like he has a flash back to breaking his arm. I just really like the actor who plays Hawk and I want to see him more and I feel like his acting skills are much better than some of the other kids in the show, SO LET HIM SHINE

Finally: BRING BACK AISHA

The downside of binge watching something is that the entire season is one long ass movie and you can't separate each episode so yorue not excatly sure when something happened
