The sound engineers for this show have made some questionable choices. Really get taken out of the engrossment when there's a sound effect that just doesn't fit.

Does anyone troll the gas station clerk?
rpgamer replied to Doom Metal Alchemist's topic in Free-For-All
So, you do know approximately how much you need every time you gas up, since, as you said, you're doing this on a regular schedule. How hard is it, then, to just think "hm, usually I need x amount, at current price that would be around Y" and tack on a little extra for good measure? That's kinda the whole point here. It's less that everyone's giving you grief for not knowing how much your tank holds total. Except maybe sponges. Mostly, everyone's just baffled that, in 13 years, you haven't figured out how much gas you need in a typical week. I have no clue how big my gas tank is. But I do know I need roughly 12 gallons every 2 weeks. -
Sorta like, Judaism is the Original Trilogy. Christianity came along with some expanded universe nonsense that everyone agreed was pretty dumb but hey, some people like Jar Jar. And Islam sez "Yeah, we're gonna pretend none of that ever happened." and used their own EU.

Food Wars! The Third Plate 23-24 Episode Discussion
rpgamer replied to PokeNirvash's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
I saw it was on... the Roku app, I think? Some free streaming app a while back. And also fondly remembered it from long ago. Starts out pretty good. But, just kinda flops. Like, "build up the big giant Magog world-ship threatening the entire galaxy and then sorta do nothing with it" flops. The characters were still fun, tho. Much love for Trance and Harper. And most of the rest. But, Sorbo going off the deep end does kinda leave a bad aftertaste. -

Don't let the nostalgia glasses fool you, the ending kinda went to shit. In retrospect, a fitting analogy to Sorbo. -

"0.1 mm" noodles? Sorry, don't think it's supposed to feel like eating cotton candy. -
It was literally [fighters] vs [fighters] in structured fights. How is it not a tournament?

It's finally over. Controversial opinion: Tournament arcs are lazy boring writing that do next to nothing to progress any of the story.

Eh, all I'm saying is, if the idea is to imbue bacon-ness into a dish, wrapping in bacon just seems like the least elegant means to accomplish it. Ok, hear me out. Chicken breasts, big and plump, fit for cutting a pocket for stuffing. Cook your bacon in a pan as usual, nice and crispy, save the fat. Chop the cooked bacon and make, like, a cheddary, peppery stuffing. Maybe some onions, or those scallions would do. Jalapeno? That could maybe work, too. Stuff and cook, and I'm just assuming a grill is involved, so take that reserved bacon fat and baste those bitches. You've got bacon-ness outside, bacon-ness inside, with none of the flaccid-ness of bacon-wrapped anything. Idk. It gets the job done. But I think there must be better ways of achieving that marriage of not just flavors but also textures. It's tasty, but maybe doesn't quite live up to its potential. That said, I have also had this idea for bacon-wrapped grilled cantaloupe that I think might have some merit...

Controversial opinion: I never understood the point of "bacon-wrapped" anything. For me, the whole purpose of bacon is to get somewhere along the way to crispy. But, wrapped around any bit of meat, it just fails to achieve anything resembling what it should be capable of. It's still just a bit of soggy floppy chewy fat. If the whole point is to sacrifice some bacon to imbue its essence into the actual dish, surely basting with bacon fat would get there all the same. Or some sort of bacon-based stuffing (cooked, chopped, mixed with... idk, something). I don't think I've ever enjoyed eating the bacon from any bacon-wrapped dish. And that's just a bit disappointing.

...So why, if he had control of revival fluid, did he not simply go straight for his sister to begin with? Tsukasa has always had flawed character motivation. Starting to see a trend here of poorly thought out characterization that comes back to bite the writers in the ass when they actually have to justify it.

Was Eva really all that good to begin with?

I remember this game back on Genesis. I remember never making it very far. I remember many years later finally looking up a long play, and realizing just how much I had never seen. I remember being dumbfounded at the bizarre settings near the end. Mostly I remember it not being very fun.
