Green: "I should go back for Gender studies." Green, shows up to class. Professor honks. Classmates all honk. Door locks behind Green. The honking gets louder. Green is never heard from again. On the window of the classroom is written "Gander Studies"
Glad you got to the Omega Ridley fight. If it wasn't obvious why you are fighting 2 Ridleys in Prime 3 is simply because you never fought Ridley in 2, so they wanted to spice it up, similar to how Zero Missions has 2 Ridleys. It also helps that they really wanted to go with the whole "lets give everyone phazons."
honestly Jons dreams sound atleast somewhat comprehensible, with recurring characters and all that. Mine are just an ever shifting labyrinth of locations and people with no semblance of sense, it often feels like i'm just watching a heavily edited shitpost through a monitor or something.
47:15 I also love that idea 5:15:41 I also feel like I just burned out in college after doing great up til then, I didn't give up anything but my special help I got in highschool and below because my mentality of "I can't always relay on this" kind of shame I guess and also not know what TO accommodate because of my Asperger's. I almost failed physics because actually writing long labs floored me and instead of asking the teacher for help I just froze I suppose. The teacher then was nice enough to just pass me after I worked hard on the final project and because I was just going for a game design degree anyways 5:18:40 also mood... I just don't have the confidence to start and don't want to work at AAA companies because of the stories... crunch and all that
Man, Jon got shat on hard during that escort mission. I dont think I've ever seen a simultaneous kill on the troopers, and Jon had THREE onstances of two dying at basically the same time. And sure, he doesnt seem to have figured out some of the strats like deliberately taking damage while in hypermode (especially here where you can also shield the troops while letting your gauge recharge from damage), but still, this should not have been that bad on Veteran.
Having now beaten Hypermode difficulty with only 6 deaths, I can now say thank you for wanting me to play through it again. I had a fun time against the last bosses My time was 10 hours 46 minutes. It would have been shorter had I not forgotten about the Powerworks Missile Expansion I will be honest, the Escort was the easiest of the Seed exposures in my opinion. 4:37:34 Mogenar and Helios epitomize different things and Omega Ridley is no different. What he is different in is that Mogenar and Helios epitomize “annoying” and “forgettable” respectively, but Omega Ridley epitomizes the phrase “3rd times the charm.” Omega Ridley is not only one of the best bosses in Prime 3, but he is also one of the best bosses in the entire trilogy. I LOVE this fight and the music! I will admit, the conversation about trans people was sounding a little annoying after a while. I don’t hate them AT ALL, but it definitely annoyed me in a way that I wish it doesn’t.
I'm familiar with Chibi Vampire, that's the setting of the event that in my fanfiction chronology is what gets a female character based somewhat on Princess Peach particularly dedicated to stopping rape. The only spoiler in regards to that which i'm willing to divulge is that Dead or Alive's Ayane will be similarly dedicated through a more personal reason (namely she herself is a product of rape).
The Gif Wall for this stream i recognize the origins of four (top left is a Pokemon holiday special, top middle is from Transformers, top right is from Batman, and bottom middle is what i assume to be a birthday event for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles given the candles on a pizza. Don't know about bottom right, but the car looks like ACES from Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed.
Top right is from Justice League Unlimited, not any of the Batman cartoons or animated series (it’s the same universe/continuity as BTAS/ABR/TNAB/STAS; context: Circe turned Wonder Woman into a pig and Batman and Zatana have to undo the curse). Bottom left is Nekoarc from what I think is one of the Carnival Phantasms (Fate/Melty Blood crossover/parody series). Bottom right is from Fighters Megamix which was by SEGA, so you’re right about AGES.
Glad to hear El Goonish Shive mentioned, as it's a classic from WAY Back in the Keen days, which is fun because most of the comics from back then are just.... dumb. But EGS is great.
Also to the reference to Caffeine and ADHD. One of the chief symptoms of ADHD is something called Paradoxical Stimulant Response. It's why ADHD meds work(they're basically amphetamines) by calming our brains down, it's why caffeine helps, all of it. Also it's why ADHD people experience the wonderous experience known as Coffee Naps.
I can't help but wonder who gave the OK for demolition troopers to have inferior armor than standard GF Soldiers. Like does it have to be a trade off? Able to carry high grade explosives but more squishy is something they HAD to compromise?
Okay given the fact EMILE STARTED UPLOADING AGAIN, I would be VERY afraid of what the Dreamwatch portents. Also idk who did the robot voice last session but Gex’s robot voice honestly hurts my ears. 3:48:15 I was expecting a three-card reading, as that’s what I’d seen before. 4:42:52 LET’S GO! Mooch is a real one.
I actually brought this up on stream. Jon said knowing his brain, he thinks it would've been more obvious (2:00:16 if you want to hear it for yourself)
O.ega ridley is a good boss fight but compared to the expectacle he had at the start of the game its a bit meh. Also his rhemr nusic SUUUCKS its like 10 second loop and ot gets boring real soon

this was definitely an interesting stream XD
also at the beginning i was reminded of Masae getting mad at Jarod making Dad Jokes at Colosseum 2
47:15 I also love that idea

Finally made it past Hypermode Morgenar and got to a little past where Jon starts this segment
Having now beaten Hypermode difficulty with only 6 deaths, I can now say thank you for wanting me to play through it again. I had a fun time against the last bosses
My time was 10 hours 46 minutes. It would have been shorter had I not forgotten about the Powerworks Missile Expansion

“The Architect” is now a subconscious CRYPTID.
So, the manga/anime jon is talking about at the beginning is called chibi vampire in the west, and the main character's name is Karin
I'm familiar with Chibi Vampire, that's the setting of the event that in my fanfiction chronology is what gets a female character based somewhat on Princess Peach particularly dedicated to stopping rape.

whenever i hear the auto vent warning sfx, i always think sonics losing rings
27:28 chuggaa’s note is just “no”
On the topic of one of the final discussions, I miss the heck out of the CZcams-style content you made.
Glad to hear El Goonish Shive mentioned, as it's a classic from WAY Back in the Keen days, which is fun because most of the comics from back then are just.... dumb. But EGS is great.

1:04:28 where all the bad puns start

3:01:44 nah rosa is the unlimited bread sticks
As someone who lives in the same timezone as you, you do stream really late, so im stuck on vod squad 90% of the time
Pretty sure you missed a pirate scan during the escort mission. Those guys blasting through the wall, green-armored shield-wearing commandoes.
Soon we'll know Jon's perspective on all 3 prime games
Okay given the fact EMILE STARTED UPLOADING AGAIN, I would be VERY afraid of what the Dreamwatch portents.
Also idk who did the robot voice last session but Gex’s robot voice honestly hurts my ears.
3:48:15 I was expecting a three-card reading, as that’s what I’d seen before.
4:42:52 LET’S GO! Mooch is a real one.
I don't think it involves Emile. I'm pretty sure everything is already sorted out with him...
