honestly Angband gets an honorable mention just for the whole potion of uselessness thing

Suikoden II is on the list because of all the beautiful spritework. Especially in the early-game, there are numerous events that use sprites that are only seen once in the entire game--the best example being when Viktor and Anabelle share tea(?) and there are tons of sprites of both of them drinking and making minor idle motions that aren't used anywhere else in the game

Metal Gear Solid is on the list because of tiny things you can do that actually impact the game, like how you can use the smoke from a cigarette to make lasers visible, or how enemies will notice your footprints, not just the obvious things

After watching @connie stream metal gear solid a few times, we now have two games that we can think of with extreme attention to detail

- Suikoden II
- Metal Gear Solid (series?)

they're just really good

hmm

my answer to this would probably be Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on the game boy color

The game is... fine, but the music is amazing

people in manga sure do narrate the goings-on a lot

Hey fediverse, tell me about video games you love with underrated soundtracks

hypnothesis

we're not alone in this right?? we're not the only ones who conceptualize dimensionful quantities like this, right?

i feel like these students are learning the wrong things and I really want to fix it but we *can't*

grading papers and just, extremely frustrated at how this teacher seems to teach some fundamentals

there are students getting units wrong left and right, including multiple students writing the B-H loop area (dimensions of [magnetic flux density] [electric current] [length]⁻¹) in units of cm²

i don't know how to express to people that this is not the right way to treat units

units are something you do math to too, you can't just leave them off and then stick on the units you expect at the end

why all the welcoming stuff? Is there another influx of new users to fedi?

Oh, you like novelty? *soaks a book in hot water*

do you need to know how many circles can fit into a bigger circle very often? No. Is this site indispensable the few times you *do* need to? absolutely
