@AndrasDeak--СлаваУкраїні no, I just mean that for example one of three boxes has the item you need for 100%, but as soon as you open one the other two disappears. In a given level the item is always in the same box, for example the left one... but there is no visual clue to this.
So it just becomes "trial and error" gameplay.
fail and repeat the stage until you find the correct answer.
> A popular variety of Fake Difficulty, Trial-and-Error Gameplay is what happens when an incorrect action kills the character, ends the mission in failure, or otherwise forces the player to replay that part from the beginning again. And, in the most egregious manner possible, this happens even if it was not possible to know in advance that it was a bad move at all. In the end, the only thing the player can do about it is reload the area and/or savepoint, play through that section again, and remember not to take that action next time.

@AndrasDeak--СлаваУкраїні nope, most of those aren't even available yet

@SPArcheon-onstrike so at least it's better than random
@SPArcheon-onstrike Gura played a game like that by the way :P
@SPArcheon-onstrike so perhaps just some popularity vote, "do you like X?", and still percentage of answerers "liking it"
BWHAHAHAHA.... I just learned that Netflix casted an INDIAN actress for playing the role of Vivi in the One Piece live action.
You know...
The one from a desert country with pyramids that is clearly based on INDIA
the forced "diversity"...

Now, mind you, more than the reverse whitewashing, what strikes me as odd is more the almost suspicious avoidance of any Arabic actor.
Which is pretty common in American productions and do come out as politically charged.

They announced the next Sonic movie, and it's released in 2024-12, which is the perfect time for me!
10:42
as far as I am concerned, they had a decent movie back in '99.
There was no need for the piece of junks they made now.
And more than even there was no need for the "character ends up in human world" trope so dear to the Smurfs movies
nor for the toilet humor like the scene with Sonic in the bag in the elevator in the first movie.
Nintendo made a mistake with the old live action horrible Mario movie. Then the new one actually looks like the source material and is quite decent, full of easter eggs and references to the games.
Sega did the opposite, went from decent to plain useless if not worse.
I don't think it's useless, and I like the second film
It is not Sonic, or at least it is not the Sonic from the games. It is not even the Sonic from the Adventures game (you know, the ones that have humans int them).
It doesn't feel aimed at the ones who play the actual games at the very least
it is more of one of those mass productions that take a character, place them in human world to spend less money on special effects and make a plot that has little more than the same names in it.
IMHO it is pretty clear whoever wrote the script did not struggle to understand the nature of the characters.
but that's my opinion.
the first one for me was especially bad. The Alvin & Dave vibes between Sonic and the main human character were quite annoying, as it was the "adopted son" style ending.
you went from a "world is on the brink of being destroyed by a crazy scientist that is causing extreme pollution and turning animals into robot by a very painful process (that at least in the Archie comics was NOT reversible) and so a group of rebels start a desperate struggle to fight back" to "Hedgehog get adopted by local someone, pest control Jim Carry gets mad trying to capture him"
suddenly, something to make @AndrasDeak--СлаваУкраїні happy.
11:15
@SPArcheon-onstrike Sure, I can understand if you don't like that, but the second movie is better than that
and I think the second movie gets the characters well
you can probably just ignore the first movie

@AndrasDeak--СлаваУкраїні aren't you lucky? It is Carrotday

A friend showed me this.
... she is Furina.
ESPECIALLY the reaction at the end.
and the bronze face to switch back to "I am totally a powerful archon" mode two seconds later...
she even has the hat.

@SPArcheon-onstrike it's not even diversity if you cast the wrong kind of "diverse" person for a role...
@SPArcheon-onstrike well that fits in with the original nightmare fuel design
@SPArcheon-onstrike that's not so bad
@SPArcheon-onstrike meh
@SPArcheon-onstrike I'd have guessed this pose to be too suggestive for your taste (also weird tree and light in the background, and nobody crosses their legs in such a hovery way)
@SPArcheon-onstrike what did I do to deserve this?!
@SPArcheon-onstrike oh dear, product placement anime
