overview for Apeman42

I'll always recommend Exiles. It's what happens when X-Men and Sliders have a baby. A ragtag group of B-to-C tier mutants solve problems and wreak havoc across the multiverse.

And fuck I love Morph!

Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review in order to access the playtest in c/games@lemmy.world

This is utter hogshit, but also seems relatively easy to work around. "I am legally forbidden from sharing my opinions on the quality of Marvel Rivals." is a pretty clear and succinct review that technically flies under their legal fuckery.

Disgaea fans: How does 4 compare to 1 and 2, doods? (lemmy.world)

I used to play the hell out of 1 and 2 back in the PS2 days, but I haven't touched the series beyond that, and haven't even played 1/2 much in the last 10 years.

How would you rate 4 in comparison? I noticed it was on sale in the Switch eShop, and I'd love to have one of the series to play on the go.

What I loved about the ones I played:

Story had a good balance of comedy and heart
Flexible and fun character building, with decent enough defined classes to get you started
Tons of post-game/side content (I didn't like every piece of it, but I liked how much there was to try.)
CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH
Perfect geochains, though I was usually too smoothbrain for it.

What I didn't like:

Item world, IIRC worse in 1 than 2?
Adell's siblings
Demon court thing?

Side note, is there anything like Interdimensional Cable on Lemmy yet?

Are there any "diegetic musicals"? (lemmy.world)

For those unfamiliar with the term "diegetic music", it refers to music that's actually played in the story rather than just for the benefit of the audience. The characters can hear it too.

With that in mind, are there any musicals where the characters acknowledge that they're constantly breaking into song? Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "Once More with Feeling" is the best example I can think of for this.
