What is 'boat' in this context?

Merlu,

"Ship" is polysemic an is also a synonym of "boat", i wanted to avoid some puns.

Ooyodo for sure!

fictional couple that is not canon, not boat!

Ooyodo x Admiral. Problem solved.


I’m joking with the above. Serious now: Dr. Stone, Kohaku x Senku make a really cute brawls vs. brains pair, I love seeing them interact. Like:

  • [Senku] WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS
  • [Kohaku] punches something swiftly Aaand it’s done.

It’s a bit of a silly ship, but for Helck: Helck x Vermilio.

There’s also Roy x Riza from FMA, but I don’t think that it counts, it’s practically canon.

Great to see a fellow OG LiS enjoyer! I still get heavy goosebumps over the OST. Santa Monica~

I don’t really have proper ships in that regard that the only games where I began shipping were animu ones, where an official couple doesn’t exist in a canon sense.

Shuichi x Kaede. For the ship fandom this is considered as the “official” couple, but if you played you know why this is the favorite. Clair de Lune…

I keep part of my TBR pile in the crapper and a read a few pages every time I use the toilet.

Seven Samurai still holds up. Also, the original Godzilla.

  • escort missions
  • press x to not die
  • unskippable cutscenes
  • long-ass mandatory tutorial missions (I can and do RTFM, fuck you very much)
  • no subtitles for spoken dialogue
  • shitty writing
  • shitty voice acting
  • non-union voice acting
  • skinny dudes with huge fucking swords
  • mandatory gacha/pay to win
  • padding what could be a short, fun, memorable game with a lot of bullshit
  • trophies/achievements
  • a plot-relevant sidekick with an overly perky VA (gives Paimon from Gacha Impact the thermonuclear side-eye)
  • characters who look prepubescent in outfits a grown-ass adult would think twice about wearing
  • long, convoluted processes to find "ultimate weapons" that aren't worth the effort
balderdash9, in What was the last straw that made you leave your former SO?

She (somewhat jokingly?) told my family that she didn’t want kids at thanksgiving. Everyone (including her) knows that I want kids. She had been somewhat indecisive in the past, but it became clear to me that our long-term goals didn’t align. We talked about it and eventually broke up.

Way to go!
No reason to continue if you don't gain more than what you lose.

Many ladies have asked, why I don't want kids. At this point I just copy-paste my PROS&CONS -list to them 😂 (I made a list during one short relationship where she wasn't sure, does she want kids)
I am happy I found a lady that tilts towards not wanting kids (I know the opinion can change, but she's already in an age where it gets difficult to get kids anymre).

un_aristocrate, in What was the last straw that made you leave your former SO?

When she dumped me.

-The save points just before a cutscene, so if you die, you are forced to watch the said cutscene again and again.

-When characters are discussing, they say what the player is supposed to do. Dude, i'm the one who's supposed to do so, not the guy you're talking with.

A nice post prompt, OP. To start, and to riff off yours, I'd say games that don't have a run option, and insist on a milquetoast in between of "fast-walking." Here are mine that I can think of from some of the most recent games I've played:

–No third-person viewing option in an RPG; e.g., Cyberpunk 2077. After readily having the option in my hundreds of combined hours in Skyrim and FO, it felt preposterous not having the option to view my character at will. Crazy.

–Needlessly loud start menu music or fx leading to the title screen

–I'm doubtful there's any sort of terminology for this, but, mission-style games that don't make any attempt to establish a linear, interlocking world. E.g., Nioh. It's very souls-like overall, but I really wish this aspect of the game was more like a From game in this regard.

Might edit in some more if this post stays active.

@daredevil when I find myself in an ancient cave or tomb that has been abandoned for centuries but there's a torch burning on the wall and candles next to every treasure chest.

Also, fresh food in said dungeon.

ContentConsumer9999,

I think that's acceptable if you're going for an eerie feel. It suggests maybe the caves aren't as abandoned as you think.
