Mobilezoid 05/17/24 7:34:13 PM #462 | Oh, one other thing that puts my own 2D/3D preference into focus is GBC's OP. There are parts of it that aren't 3D, like even just the first ten seconds when theyre all falling from the sky. Now that looks amazing. They're doing an undeniably great job with the 3D, but for my taste, give me an entire anime that looks like the 2D in the OP! That would be my ideal.
https://animethemes.moe/anime/girls_band_cry/OP1 I've been trying to think of my own personal "best looking anime ever" and my mind keeps going back to the movie Bubble, which is a lame choice because I didn't even really like that movie. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) |
Topic | Anime & Manga Discussion Topic 298: Anime is Saved |
Mobilezoid 05/17/24 6:59:36 PM #460 | I watched the first three episodes of GBC, then I watched a bunch of BanG Dream stuff (MyGO, the movies) before moving on to GBC 4 and 5. I was surprised, coming back to GBC, how much better it looked in comparison. Really expressive CGI and smooth movements. The only bad thing I even noticed was when drunk Momoka got picked up by the feet, her body looked super stiff then.
I think I'll always prefer the best of the best of 2D animation, but GBC probably wins in the 3D category. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) |

Topic | Monthly Multiplayer Asynchronous Randomizers |
Mobilezoid 05/15/24 3:37:46 PM #1 | I let the topic purge yet again, whoops. That's the trouble with something that only happens once a month!
Website : archipelago.gg NOTE TO MODS: While some Archipelago games require emulation, they don't provide any of the hardware or information on how to get it. They're very careful not to break any laws so please don't delete this topic just for linking to them, thx What is a randomizer? : Most games have linear progression. Item A unlocks Area B, and Area B has Item C to unlock Area D, and so on. In a randomizer, these items are shuffled, so you might find Item C in the first area and progress to Area D right away. How they work obviously varies from game to game, but most randomizers offer a unique progression path every time you play. Often this turns them into a kind of puzzle to complete. Randomizers use careful logic to ensure you can always beat the game, but it won't always be easy! How can a randomizer be multiplayer? : With Archipelago, instead of a game's items being shuffled within itself, those items are shuffled between several different games. A Link to the Past player can find and send a Super Metroid player's super missiles, and then the Super Metroid player can find the LTTP player's hookshot, and so on. This turns the randomizer experience into one big puzzle split between ten or twenty or more games, and everyone needs to cooperate to complete it. This can be done with everyone playing at the same time, but Archipelago also allows for asynchronous play (or async), meaning your progress is saved and can be resumed later. Any items you send, other players receive when they start playing, and any items they send you will come when you resume. LIST OF GAMES Adventure Blasphemous Castlevania 64 Celeste 64 Dark Souls III DLC Quest Donkey Kong Country 3 Doom 1993 Doom II Factorio Final Fantasy Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Heretic Hollow Knight Hylics 2 Kingdom Hearts 2 Kirby's Dream Land 3 Landstalker The Legend of Zelda Lingo A Link to the Past Link's Awakening DX Lufia II Ancient Cave Mega Man Battle Network 3 Meritous The Messenger Minecraft Muse Dash Noita Ocarina of Time Overcooked 2 Pokemon Emerald Pokemon Red and Blue Raft Risk of Rain 2 Rogue Legacy Secret of Evermore Shivers A Short Hike Slay the Spire SMZ3 (LTTP and Super Metroid combined into one game) Sonic Adventure 2 Battle Starcraft 2 Stardew Valley Subnautica Super Mario 64 Super Mario World Super Metroid Terraria Timespinner Tunic Undertale VVVVVV Wargroove The Witness Yoshi's Island Zillion Zork Grand Inquisitor How to Participate : If you're interested, that's great! Here's a quick breakdown of the steps you need to take, but feel free to ask any questions. 1: Choose your game from the list above. Remember, whatever you choose will be randomized, so you won't be playing it the usual way. Minecraft, for example, locks various crafting recipes behind checks for you to find or other players need to send you. You won't even be able to craft a stone pickaxe until you get Progressive Tools. In Starcraft II, you can't build marines until the unit is sent, etc. With that said, no one should be wary of joining. Archipelago allows forfeits if you're having trouble or not having any fun, so feel free to try it out! 2: Make sure you can get your game to work . https://archipelago.gg/tutorial/ has setup guides for the various games, and most of them require the Archipelago client too. I've played a few games and others here have played many others, so hopefully we can help if you're having trouble. If you run into big technical issues, though, you might need to go to the Archipelago discord server and ask there. There are lots of knowledgeable people there who will be happy to help with any questions! 3: Decide on your game's settings and either let me know or send me a yaml file. A yaml is the name for the file that contains your game's settings. Each game on Archipelago allows various setting changes (found here: https://archipelago.gg/games under the settings link by each game). You can either export the settings on the website and send me the file (preferably through discord) or simply let me know of your changes and, as long as there aren't a whole bunch of them, I can happily create a yaml for you. If this is your first time participating, I'd recommend just going with defaults, but some games have some real quality-of-life stuff available so make sure to take a look! 4: Once I get all the yamls and generate the multiworld, the async begins! At that point all you need to do is join in and start playing. We're pretty laid-back here, so while each async will start on a Saturday where hopefully people can play, it's fine if you can't start right away or if you can't play all the time. Most asyncs we've done have taken between a few days to a week, so there's no rush. This is meant to be fun and low-stress for everyone! All that we ask is that you communicate any major delays. Lastly, we have a discord server that we use during these. It's helpful to talk in real-time sometimes, and it makes uploading yaml files super easy. People read what's posted here too, though, so joining it isn't mandatory. The link is below and it should never expire, but if you try to join and can't just let me know and I'll generate a new one. https://discord.gg/s5aZFEKTHz --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) |

Mobilezoid 05/11/24 6:18:45 AM #358 | I've been reading the manga for A Condition Called Love. Physical release, so only up to volume 7 (...though I did skim some later chapters on certain illicit websites because I wanted more and I'm weak). 10/10 romance, realistically flawed and wonderful. I feel like I could write an essay about all the nuances in this relationship.
I've already gushed about the story plenty while talking about the anime, though. Instead, I'll briefly talk about something else. This is the first time I've read a manga beyond what an ongoing anime already covered! It's a unique experience, wondering where the season might end and what plot points they might change or cut. There have already been a few skipped chapters in the anime adaptation, which kinda made me sad. That brings me to another thing. For as much as I love the anime, it isnt as good as the manga. The art isn't anywhere near as detailed. Some of the stuff it skipped hurt the pacing a little (or were just such cute moments that it's, like, how do you skip those ahhhh). I'm turning into a source snob! I've been anime-only for so long, I don't know how I feel about that. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) |

oh I think I remember you mentioning that in the anime topic?

I'm going to finally knuckle down and try to reach that first "season" stopping point this weekend. MysteriousStan posted... I'm the only one who nominated 7th Time Loop and it almost got cut by the randomizer so I'm shocked to see it make the Top 10. It's not the type of show I've dabbled too much into so I don't know how it compares to other shows like it but I thought it was very good!I've watched all the villainess anime (which 7th Time Loop calls itself in the subtitle even though Rishe isn't much of a villainess). For me, 7th Time Loop is at the top of that subgenre! If you want another anime similar it, I'd recommend "Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion". It's an incomplete adaptation, but enjoyable regardless. It has a similar vibe to 7th Time Loop in a lot of ways. --- **R.O.B.A.Z.O.I.D** (On mobile) |
