Duitsland: Politie haalt illegale online marktplaats offline

In Duitsland heeft het Bundeskriminalamt de illegale online marktplaats Kingdom Market offline gehaald. Op Kingdom Market waren honderden verkopers actief, die veel verboden goederen aanboden zoals drugs, vervalste documenten en malware. De marktplaats had tienduizenden gebruikers, van over de gehele wereld. Onduidelijk is nog hoe website, sinds 2021 in de lucht, en servers zijn opgerold, volgens…

I'm so conflicted

On one hand, they gave us two cool Dark Choco designs to work with. We also have several cute moment like illusion!Dark Choco missing his father, the flashback, the final scene etc and I love those very much!

On the other, what do you mean he doesn't even physically appear and only gets mentioned in a couple of lines???

I not mad, just sad. They shouldn't have shown him in the trailer if he's not going to play a (bigger) role in the episode. They should've left him out completely sans his Magic Candy, letting us guessing/ thinking whether he'll appears or not. That way the back to back Dark Choco inclusion near the end will be stronger, we can finish the EP off with a final image of Dark Choco looking at the kingdom from afar, hinting at the eventual father-son reunion...

Anyways, I'm gonna go write a fanfic where Dark Cacao and Dark Choco traveled through EP 4 together now

seeing a speedrun of botw all dungeons and even like that .... its so strange how soulless totk feels to me when botw didnt, allthough it feels much flatter to me now since i know there wasnt any thought put into the things i thought were meaningful and that it will go nowhere in the end

and yet still it feels like its got soul that totk just hasnt; botw is far from perfect, like everything really, but totk to me really feels like a clunky grind game with no trust in the player at all, be it puzzles or 'story', and a fundamental missunderstanding of why botws world design and structure worked well as a whole in the end

i honestly still cant quite understand how on earth botw got totk as its 'sequel', all the things that needed work in botw where neglected or made worse totk while it also failed to follow up on literally anything in a meaningful way- when i still think the changes it needed where so OBVIOUS and the directions to follow up and expand on things to enhance not just the sequel but also botw in retrospect where so plenty and ready for the taking, it hurts me still even to think about it not being done and everything really being actively thrown away for NOTHING or things that make it AND botw WORSE in retrospect instead

i wont ever be able to forgive that, and some part of me hopes that this is the worst that they will ever do so at least we will get better games again in the future

I would absolutely love it if they make Wario a dark parallel to Mario motivation wise in the movies. Whereas Mario in the first film wanted to stop being treated as a joke for his short size and wanted to be seen as a hero, Wario’s motivation would be a dark mirror to that in that he wants to be seen as less of a joke and wants to be a hero only through greedy and selfish means and just wants all the fame that comes with it.

Oh yeah! And the idea of Wario being a "dark parallel" lines up with my headcanon that Mario is too occupied with helping people and working alongside his brother to focus on making money, and Luigi is mostly the one keeping the business side of things running. Mario doesn't care about "force majeure" or a "right of first refusal." The sentence "overseen by a business lawyer" makes him want to gag. He's just wants to fix pipes at a rate lower class people can afford.

Meanwhile, Wario is a shrewd business man whose one hinderance is his desire to take shortcuts. I can see a plot playing out where Wario starts "Super Wario Bros. Plumbing," and it becomes a bully business similar to what the Scapelli Plumbing/Construction Company was in the 1993 movie.

Roxas: Had the Halloween town kids throw bombs in his face for multiple missions in a row before finally breaking down and smacking them around a bit.

Ventus: The dwarves were rude and refused to talk to him, immediately resorted to chasing them down and whacking them.

Characterization I see frequently: Ah, yes, Roxas is the one always willing to throw hands and Ventus is a smol sunshine boy.

Namine’s turn! Her name is White Lies. She’s a very powerful unicorn who specializes in memory displacement and reconstruction

Just like in CoM, she uses her powers to slowly replace memories of Kairi/Pinky Promise with herself, even going as far as camouflaging her mark and masquerading as an alicorn. She gives up on it after some time though

One thing I’ve been thinking about for the past couple days, but something I’m not the biggest fan of with Kingdom is how the majority of the Cookies of Darkness are played more for jokes than they are for serious. And thus in doing so, the CoD itself doesn’t feel like that much of a threat

Like yeah, I like seeing stuff with the CoD just doing silly stuff, and I don’t need them to be super dark and serious 100% of the time, but like, of the Cookies of Darkness, the only characters that are consistently treated like an actual threat are Dark Enchantress Cookie and Pomegranate Cookie, though even then sometimes she’s part of the gag. And sure, some of the characters in the main story may be treated like a threat, like Red Velvet (despite his one appearance) and Affogato, but then also you’ll have them in a boy band or chilling at the rock festival, totally incognito

And again, it’s not that I don’t enjoy this stuff, but it’s just, how am I supposed to take the Cookies of Darkness as a serious threat when you’re putting them in boy bands and school AUs? Especially when more often than not, it’s the jokey route they use with them?

It’s part of the reason I don’t really see why we need all these Legendaries and Dragons and armies to fight Dark Enchantress, because 80% of the CoD are a bunch of silly little guys. I know realistically DE is powerful and has her Cake Army, hence why they need all that power, but that impression that they’re actually a threat doesn’t typically come to mind for me. But maybe that’s a me thing

And like, honestly I’d say Ovenbreak does it better when it comes to having the CoD seem like a threat. Sure I haven’t seen every event with them involved and I know they only show up like, once in a blue moon, but they usually cause actual problems, and if anything the fact that we see them so little makes them feel more significant, and like Dark Enchantress is more of a looming threat

I dunno, that’s just how I feel
