    I don't think I've seen a single Michael Mann movie?

    Got It Memorized is like a totally different show now that they’re gotten to the actual plot of Kingdom Hearts 3

    It feels like they were sleeping for the last like two months just blankly recapping Disney movies

    I recorded a podcast one time. With Moriveth.

    I need to get Netflix back so we can do more.

    I finished the RE2 playdates at Giant Bomb last night. Abby being scared is a hilarious gift.

    Hmm, I've had... 3 teeth removed, a crown put on and several fillings done since I started podcasting

    can YOU spot the episodes recorded right after each intervention?

    (honestly you could say anything and I wouldn't remember what date it was anyway)

    Also Abby was pretty damn good at RE2! Like in the boss fights she was nailing the precision shots.

    Mr. X popping out in the library still slew me even though I knew it was gonna happen.

    I've been to Five Guys once. It was fine. Took way too long though.

    Speaking of Abby reacting to things something their GTA feature is really highlighting that I love is her profanity self-censorship. There's something about the way she frustratedly utters "sugar" that is deeply entertaining to me

    One of my favorite bits of their KH3 recap so far was when they realized that they accidentally independently pointed out one of the weird inconsistencies that makes the sleepy boy theory seem the most plausible

    What's the Sleepy Boy Theory, lay it on me

    The jist of it is that KH3 is a dream had by Sora and every place you go to is a sleeping world, I think?

    What's the Sleepy Boy Theory, lay it on me

    The short version is that Sora is asleep during the vast majority of KH3, like he was in Dream Drop Distance

    They never say he is, and it wouldn't really change anything if he was, but there's some odd inconsistencies and continuity errors throughout the game that people think prove that he is

    Things like character models subtly changing between scenes, or DDD imagery appearing when it should only exist inside of dreams

    Or how most of the summons in the game are weird illusions or holograms of Disney characters, except for the dream monsters from DDD, which are solid and concrete

    It's one of those theories that really has no impact on the story of the game but people like it because it "justifies" some shoddy elements of the story, in lieu of the more obvious explanation that the game had a troubled dev cycle and that leads to errors sometimes

    And in fairness there are a few bits and bobs that really seem to not make any sense at all that the sleeping realm theory (that's its real name) would explain

  • EtchwartsEtchwarts Eyes Up Registered User regular
    Huh

    Yeah, that sort of feels like a theory in need of a wider implication

    Like you said, if he is asleep and the worlds he's visiting are sleeping too, so what?

    It’s also very endearing cause she clearly learned it from Vinny, who started doing that once he had kids

    It’s fun seeing where the younger folks there take their influence from

    It also has wild inconsistency which makes it even funnier, IMO

    I can wrap my head around the time travel, but everything about sleeping worlds in Kingdom Hearts is still very confusing to me.

    Like you said, if he is asleep and the worlds he's visiting are sleeping too, so what?

    mega spoilers for the end of KH3
    Kairi dies near the end of the game, and a straightforward reading of the ending would tell you that Sora gives his life in order to revive her (and then the secret ending shows that he didn't die, he just got kicked to a very different kind of world than the ones he normally visits)

    according to the sleeping realm theory, what actually happened was he dived deep enough into the dream world to find her ghost and say goodbye to her, and him fading away at the end is actually just him waking up (with the secret ending foreshadowing where he'll travel to next but not directly handshaking with the main ending)

    which they argue puts a period on the game's theme about relationships enduring even when someone dies or becomes irrevocably separated, which is a thing in the Pirates, Monsters Inc., and Big Hero 6 worlds

    (neverminding that those themes play just fine with the obvious reading of the ending, and arguably fit better since Sora being exiled to a weird new world is a way cleaner parallel to the whole davy jones thing with Orlando Bloom in Pirate land)

    that's mostly because it's terribly explained

    my best understanding of it is, when some of the worlds got eaten by the Heartless in KH1, as a defense mechanism they "fell asleep." they became completely sealed off from the greater world, and instead of time progressing normally in them they just sort of randomly replay moments in their timeline, with somewhat inconsistent details because hey, dreams

    because they're sealed off, sora and riku have to time travel back to when the destiny islands got eaten, so that they can hop into the worlds just before they fall asleep. but then... traverse town is one of the worlds they go to and it should be awake, since it was being used by refugees of fallen worlds at that time?

    Dream Drop Distance is a game with a lot of convoluted ideas and a complete disinterest in making them make sense or be interesting.

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    It’s honestly probably better to just completely ignore the concept

    They’re just other worlds don’t think about it

  • OmnipotentBagelOmnipotentBagel floof Registered User regular
    Really that's what makes it so fun, the fact that it's clearly an intentional choice she has to work at.

    If it was a sincere swear-substitution thing I'd probably find it a lot more grating because I don't trust people who refuse to cuss

    I've been rewatching a lot of giant bomb content and one of my favorite things about Vinny has always been him trying to subvert games rulesets, as he famously does as "open world" vinny

    But I think my favorite Vinny is actually Beseiged/Bridge Constructor Vinny

    He just plays those games with such like, active disdain for how they "Want" him to complete those challenges and its always hilarious
