  1. Perfect. This will make a good substitute until Dreamblitz makes his modpack.
  2. Animal Farm is genuinely an enjoyable book.

     

    Animal Farm actually had me laugh out loud because of how stupid a lot of the animals seemed to be. The hospital had purchased the van from the Horse Slaughterer and they didn't change the logo yet... Yeah right. Though I do feel bad for poor Boxer... He was a hard, respectable worker, and Napoleon betrayed him, just as Stalin betrayed the proletariat and turned the Soviet Union into a dystopia.

     

    You know, the only reason the Animals didn't rebel against Napoleon is because they were too stupid to do so. All Napoleon had to do was eliminate the pigs that opposed him, because the pigs were the cleverest of animals. I guess you could say that Snowball was the main unfortunate victim of this. I don't know what kind of person Leon Trotsky was, but I would happily live in a society where someone like Snowball exists.

     

    It was sort of a "Haha, Russian people are really gullible, and that Gullibility led them into a dictatorship ruled by Stalin" from Orwell to whoever is reading the book.

     

    It's obvious to everyone that Animal Farm was a commentary on Communist Russia. I knew it when I was eight, no teacher needed to say that to me, it was literally in the summary of the book. Orwell made it strikingly obvious to anyone who knows even a bit about the Russian Revolution and the Soviet Union.

     

    Honestly, I enjoyed this book more than 1984.

     

    Orwell did a really good job of Showing, not telling, with this book. 

  3. I was in the northern crater, making progress. I got all the items from the left upper and left lower paths. I was spending time in the right path trying to encounter dragon zombies to get Shadow Flare for my last two Enemy Skill Materia. I had already encountered one and tried destroying it immediately, gaining the Enemy Skill "Pandora's Box" in the process. Now any other Dragon Zombie's I encounter will not have it. I had also gotten The Pollensalta to use Angel Whisper on everyone, gaining that Enemy Skill as well. I wanted to master all 4 Enemy Skill Materia. Then I encountered a Pollensalta while on low health. I tried to manipulate it to get healing by Angel Whisper, so as to not waste any MP from my own characters. But the Pollensalta used Fascination on Vincent Valentine. Vincent Shot Cloud to death. Barret too. And then, he pulled out the Death Penalty, Put it to his mouth, and Blew his own brains out (Ok, it didn't quite happen like that, but still, the point is that he killed himself). And just like that, the game was over. All the Angel Whisper, Pandora's Box, that one Shadow Flare I got on Barret, that Bad Breath I had gotten on the 4th Enemy Skill Materia, Gone. Shield Materia? Imperial Guard? Mega All Materia? Gone. (although on the bright side, I got two Materia with Shadow Flare from Ultimate Weapon, who is actually really easy to beat. At least I kept that.) And I couldn't save because the Save Crystal could have ruined my save file. I had been warned about this, heck I experienced this when I was nine years old. I'm pretty sure a lot of you can relate. Having not saved for a while, you lost all of your progress. And now I'm going to have to go through the northern crater all over again. Just make it autosave. I don't want that feeling of PTSD again. A lot of modern gamers frequently forget to save. And those who don't want an autosave feature, let them turn it off. Is it too much to ask, Square? Or you could just fix the Save Crystal glitch, so that I wouldn't be afraid of using the darn thing.
  4. If Izuku Midorya never met All Might and inherited his quirk, he could have become a pretty darn good detective.

     

     

    He probably could have become L.

     

     

    (At least according to that one filler episode).

     

    He probably wouldn't have been very happy with his life, though. If his dream was to become a superhero, then he'd grow up bitter and defeated.

    1. Wolfox

      or he would learn to love his life, aiding Heroes with his sharp mind. in turn being like a Hero to the Heroes

      That’s also a probable outcome, yeah. It really depends on whoever writes the story.

       

       

      But he’d probably never get recognized for his accomplishments, unless you are someone like All Might. Although I don’t see Midoriya as the type of person who would save people for acknowledgement. He just wanted to be a hero. And that’s why Stain spared him.

    3. ShadeStrider

      Actually, it depends on how he goes about catching a Serial Killer.

       

      Scenario one: He deduces the Serial Killer’s Identity, And saves someone from being his next victim. He realizes that he saved someone, and then becomes enthusiastic about his work.

       

      Scenario two: he doesn’t deduce the murderer in time, and someone else is Slaughtered. This leaves him bitter and defeated, as he realizes that he isn’t a hero and he can’t save everyone.

       

      Scenario 2 would be him taking the Cid Highwind route, except replacing “I want to go to Space, but My dreams were crushed” with “I want to be a hero, but my dreams were crushed”. I’d like to imagine that scenario 2 would end up with him getting his chance, just like Cid eventually did.

  5. It’s been memed to death already, but this scene never gets old.

      Some things in life are never out of date.

  6. When children wish that there would be bad weather so that they get the day off from school, there is something wrong.

     

    And it isn't the fault of the children. 

    1. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      what would be "bad weather" tho? I've only had school canceled for weather for 2 days, and that's less canceled and more just being unable to come there due to slippy roads

  7. Calculus Class in a nutshell.

     

    Overused joke, I know. But depending on your grade level and your age, Its probably true for anyone taking a mathematics class. Especially me. Taking Algebra III. In Eight Grade. Vietnam Flashbacks.

  8. I still can’t believe that Final Fantasy VIII was able to run on the PS1 

  9. Sephiroth got the focus of this Fan animated video. Cloud, Zack, and Angeal barely got two shots.

     

    And of all people, Lucrecia Crescent got a cameo.

  10. You are in no way obligated to do this for us. But I really appreciate that you do. On behalf of the community, I thank you, Waynolt and Aironfaar.
  11. Remember to burn your Grinch effigies. He deceived all of us Smash Bros fans, and he shall be punished. (Except for me. I knew there was only a 30% chance of it being real) Support me as I go into tournament. Don't need a Tier list to choose who I'm going to play. Cloud first, Snake, Mewtwo, Greninja, Falco, and Roy (aka Fire Marth) later. Snake and Mewtwo require considerably more skill to play compared to Cloud, so that's why those two come later. Remember to punish characters with bad frame data, like a pro. I remember when Christmas used to be about our lord and Savior So, again, Merry Christmas. Enjoy some holiday music. Remember to feed on your tree frogs. SABDJCUS.
  12. Fair enough. Now Let's not bother DreamblitzX about this. I trust that he'll come around. Maybe with a debug mode.
  13. A Merry Christmas to all of Rebornevo.com.

     

  14. Looks like I didn’t win anything. Not salty about it.
  15. This was the first time in my miserable life that I fell for clickbait.

     

  16. Yeah, Why don't they give Shulk Cloud's Aerials?

    I also wonder why "What if Cloud lost Fiora?" doesn't exist yet.

    1. Commander

      Commander

      What if Cloud lost Zack?

  17. Means we are gonna have to wait for the development of the next one. Fine with me, i’ll Wait.
  18. I was about to sleep. Goddamn it. Now I have to play this game.
  19. Go to bed, everyone. I'm pretty sure the new episode will be up by tomorrow morning, or tomorrow night. Unless you don't live in my time zone, in which case.... yeah, have fun.
  20. That's easy for the wasp. If you want a challenge, try asking the wasp to deduce the "main" plotline of either Final Fantasy XV or Metal Gear Solid V. That's a challenge, both game's had extremely disjointed plots. Rejuvenation isn't even remotely as disjointed as those two games.
  21. Close the topic... again. And Bring on V11. But It may take a while to upload, so be patient, my little urchins. I haven't finished my 100th playthrough of Final Fantasy 6, so I'll wait.
  22. It's that his character development was... trash actually. That's what people here feel, and I can't exactly disagree.
  23. I prefer Sephiroth as a villain to Kefka. More backstory and more of a character.

     

     

    Or Maybe I just don’t like clowns.

     

    Kefka will always be second place when it comes to Final Fantasy villains, to me.

  24. Some say Fallout 76 is a quick cash grab.

     

    But how can that be, if it’s terrible at grabbing cash?

      LeoYT

      Well I got my copy from the $5 bin at a Family Dollar so...thats $5 im never getting back

    2. laggless01

      laggless01

      I think the focus was more on 'quick' rather than 'money' 😉 Think of it like those awful, low-budget horror movies and you'd get the gist of it.

    3. ShadeStrider

      ShadeStrider

      Yeah.. but it failed to grab my cash... or a lot of people who were warned about the quality of this game.
