99.9% of anime is slice of life in real Japan with mostly real or real-ish names, what are you talking about

I think the writers pretty much admitted they had no plan for Trinity, seeing how their goal completely changed from immortality to apocalypse between Rise and Shadow. They were just the reason for Lara to track them across the world and stumble on ancient stuff.

I’m looking up the opening scene and I can’t find the therapy session itself. Maybe it was only in the trailer, I remember people thought it was weird when they released that trailer because it was unexpected at the time that this was the direction they were taking? But the game does have you find tapes of Lara’s recorded sessions talking with the therapist, like how she’s having control issues and it turns out she has become a different person in a bad way.

The third game of the reboot trilogy starts with her tracking this evil organization that’s been screwing with her family, finding the item they’re trying to steal to trigger an appocalypse, stealing it first, and almost triggering that same apocalypse because she doesn’t know what she’s doing, thinking she’s doing good. Second game also started with her tracking the same organization to figure out what they’re doing, and from that, she stumbles into some archaeology. It’s a long character arc, she learns that she can be good at figuring out ancient stuff, and she finds out the hard way that she can also fuck up badly when she doesn’t know what she’s doing. It’s supposed to end at the point where she’s mature enough to do better. We just see all the “fucking up” parts.

The second game of the reboot trilogy starts with Lara in therapy session about how she became a thrill addict from her survivor’s guilt from the first game and how she’s liking it.
- Comment on Lara Croft is a Sociopath 4 weeks ago:
That was very clearly on purpose, she starts panicking about the first guys she kills to survive, and near the end she’s screaming I’m gonna kill you all. That is the narrative arc. Welcome to trauma stories?

Have you not seen those movies that end up saying “if we kill the big bad, we’re no better than them” after mowing down countless faceless mobs

You built up your very own definition of the word while ignoring what any political conservative movement in the world actually does. You listened to someone’s argument on the concept of a definition, an idea that was stapled to a word in your head, without actually looking at factual reality. What you describe is simply not what any conservative party anywhere does.
Starting with the idea that you are conserving something that runs well and not spending resource on frivolous nonsense that doesn’t work - just look at everything a conservative party actually funds while blocking money for anything remotely humanitarian because they claim it doesn’t work, or based on the slightest disagreement about a boundary, while being themselves the very reason it doesn’t work.
Look at what is actually protected. And at who isn’t, based on not giving too much to someone you don’t think deserves it. Do those who already have all that deserve it?
Starting with your environmental conservationist sensibility and reducing that you want to be a conservative is already super wild, it’s antinomic. You think you protect something from greed and selfishness, but those who who block progress are the selfish ones who hoard everything out of greed, using “this doesn’t deserve it” or “you can’t prove this works” as an excuse to keep everything. You are not safeguarding anything, and there’s zero place for environmental protection in any conservative party anywhere.

- Comment on [Game Bundle] Duo of Justice: Ace Attorney and Mega Man 1 month ago:
Ace Attorney seems complete, including the Investigations and Great spin-offs. Mega Man collection doesn’t have Mega Man 11 (last entry in the OG series) and it doesn’t have the Zero series (4 games), the ZX series (2 games), and the Star Force series (3 games). There’s a separate collection for the Zero series, and maybe the ZX series too. I don’t know about Star Force.

I see more people aware of it today, but was there a burst in pop culture with idiots that then died down? The people who talk about it today seem pretty genuine and get good reception.

Surely there must be a Naughty Bunny somewhere that could shoot that right back at them? Maybe not in video game trademarks.
- Comment on It used to be that when most countries were or in trouble or needed help they would go to the US for help. My question is who does the US go to for help if or when needed? 4 months ago:
Greece and Turkiye have that problem - not a war or anything but they have an open conflict about territorial waters and islands that’s been going on for a long time. No one wants to get involved.
so I guess it depends on who in NATO the US gets shitty (shittier) with - most big countries in Europe act like they’re ready to stand up, but we’ll see if they actually get physically involved or if it’s more finger wagging. Looking at Greenland…

- Comment on FF7 Remake director ‘can’t share’ why Sephiroth looks different in new trading card, sparking Part 3 speculation 5 months ago:
Both arms was my first take too considering he’s specifically named the one winged angel because of the one black wing replacing his arm, but he does have a whole extra head visible behind the text, in the same way Bizarro Sephiroth had a big Sephiroth and then a tiny Sephiroth on top - the topless, black wing form sits on a cloud that sits on top of another bigger Sephiroth with white wings instead of just having 6 wings replacing his legs. With how they brought Bizarro Sephiroth in Rebirth, they could be doing the “multiple teams attacking different sections” take again.

A great modern game much better than the original. Worth it even if you played the original.
- Comment on Bella Ramsey Says ‘It’s Important’ to Keep Gendered Awards for Best Actor and Actress: ‘Recognition for Women in the Industry’ Must Be ‘Preserved’ 5 months ago:
We already know there’s bias, and we already know the winner isn’t always the one that deserves it. It’s not just men and women categories, there’s also arguments - foreign films, animated films being the most noticable victims after gender. This is true for any award ceremony, sometimes it’s more obvious that it’s a PR stunt or a popularity contest more than actual recognition of the value of somebody’s work. And no, the bias does not get addressed, even when we know it’s there. At some point, a lot of viewers just assume that the ones that didn’t win didn’t deserve it, and the show moves on, because no one cares enough.

The problem isn’t that women aren’t able to win, the problem is that the people in charge will just stop nominating women, let alone name them the winner. All of these people, in every field, everywhere, at the top, who do not have women among them, they do not care. There is money in not caring. They were not raised to care, and they raise no one to care. You have to force them.

- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 7 months ago:
No one has said anything about any of that, you are making up this argument out of nothing, no one has tried to define what a man or a woman is - except you, actually. You are moving the discussion and muddying what is even being argued about, so you can pretend I’m a conservative for some reason and the doctor is as bad as an anti-vaxxer. Even though you’re the one who tried to declare what a man or a woman is, when that wasn’t the subject at all. You are projecting.
- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 7 months ago:
You are conflating chromosoms, gender, sex. The PhD is telling you that you are wrong. You are claiming that you know better than them. The whole meme is about you, you have Dunning-Kruger, they have a PhD.
- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 7 months ago:
??? No one said it determines your gender. We’re telling you that it happens. Obviously there are XY people who grow up to be cis men, trans women, but also cis women, and surely trans men as well, or anything inbetween. You’re the only one making this all up for some reason.
- Comment on Dunning-Kruger 7 months ago:
That there are men (xy) with female parts
This is your misunderstanding right there. XY is not automatically a man. You are the one making the claim that chromosoms define if you are a man or a woman, and the PhD and the other guy are telling you that there are people born with XY who are cis women with female genitalia. You are wrong.
I don’t think the phd is saying that though because they talk about xx becoming xy
No, they are not. They are telling you that there are people born with XX but who have female genitalia and grow up to be cis women. No one told you that some XY people changed to XX. This does not happen. This is not what the PhD said, and this is not what the other guy explained to you. You are wrong.
