I suddenly really want to do an Undertale/Dark Souls crossover thing of some kind. The WTFs are threefold: First, why. Second, I don't even know what KIND of thing I want to do. Third, I'm now super conflicted over whether Gravelord Nito is more similar to Sans or Papyrus.

EDIT:

oh god suddenly i have so many great ideas about this and i need to do something with them

help plz

Why is Yume Nikki something that I unconditionally recommend?

I can sorta understand Undertale, that game is a labor of love by a guy who is a lot like me so if you play that game it's almost like if you're playing a game that I made except not shit. Spirited Away got applause from a bus full of high schoolers, you don't forget something as weird as that, and something about it makes me want to really want to share with people who've never seen it.

Yume Nikki has nothing I can think of that makes it particularly stand out except of what it is. It doesn't represent me in any way; it's about a reclusive girl who seems occupied with her femaleness in some way, and the whole game's just an exploration of her weird dream world, there's nothing there I can relate to, but it's just so good, it's just a big world full of odd things that I can't think of anything bad about. I can't think of any reason you shouldn't play it.

Everything about Undertale appealed to me nigh-instantaneously but it wasn't until the Yume Nikki connection that I really loved it. Why?! I can't see how that game means anything to me...

So why rumour of you having gf suddenly increases your social value?
 I did not become any better really.

[TempAcc]

Heh, I can confirm that I always received more attention from both sexes during times I was in a relationship with someone. Maybe its a psychological thing? From the moment it became publicy known I was with my current girlfriend, at least 4 people I had irregular contact with showed a lot more interest in me, with at least two of them having eventualy confirmed having romantic feelings for me in the past :v

Eh, maybe its the sheer weirdness itself that attracts you? Its the only reason as to why I became interested in it apart from the exploration thing and it being liked by a community I'm part of. I always liked kinda creepy weird mindfuck things that weren't just created with the purpose of being weird mindfuck things, specially when exploration is involved.
Its also why I tried the game that would eventualy bring about the Lisa series, but that game was way more obvious and direct with its themes, while Yume Nikki leaves tons of stuff open for interpretation.

Because it's totally strange and unlike anything except the games that were created afterwards to emulate it. It's not weird in the sense of "lol foreign culture baka gaijin can't comprehend", it's outright strange. Like, you can just find weird things.... and no explanation is offered, at all, even a little bit. Things just happen. Psychedelic things, weird things, scary things, cute things, no rhyme or reason. FACE, Uboa and KyuuKyuu-kun are the most popular ones, but there's loads more.

There's also the lack of story, which means that there's a metagame of creating your own theory. I like the car crash theory, although I have to admit it doesn't explain all of the imagery.

Yume Nikki takes work to love, is all. It doesn't apologize for what it is or try to be something more popular or appealing, it simply is.

Also I'm personally fascinated by Kikiyama themselves, the mysterious creator of Yume Nikki. I would like to know what they're doing now, and I hope they're alright because they have created a dark, strange game.

Also, it has a surprising ammount of hidden stuff. Lots of things about it are only known because some really determined players tried damn hard to find out all secrets it had to offer, with UBOA being the most famous one.

Apparently, the the old story about the Monitor's powder charges being reduced to half size at Hampton Roads is untrue. The 15 lb charges she was carrying were, in fact, the standard charges for 11" guns as specified by the 1860 regulations. Furthermore, her guns could have penetrated Virginia's armor had her gunners aimed for the waterline.

The Monitor couldn't penetrate the Virginia because she was only carrying explosive shells designed to wreck wooden warships. In the haste to get underway, the solid shot that would have penetrated the Virginia's armor were left behind. I've never (and I've read a lot about this battle) heard a claim of reduced powder charge before.

I was just trying to peer-pressure someone into drinking a shot of tabasco sauce, and I ended up drinking one myself.
WHY DID I DO THAT?!?

[GiglameshDespair]

Karma.

Poland decided that making a stealth tank is nice and dandy but it needs to make a supercar as well.

(at this rate they will have nuclear weapons by the end of this decade)

*cough* *cough* We also used to actually have Soviet nukes and as always, it is unclear what actually happened to them but they proably went back to Russia. It's more a political thing right now, anyways.

Also, fun fact, there is a quite popular Polish book where Poles basically built a nuke in secret and ACCIDENTALLY (because that is what we would totally do) exploded it which caused a nuclear war and later on we had to mop it up by going back in time.

Soviet nukes don't count because they weren't quite owned by Poland as a country and got extracted by the soviets by the end of the cold war (unlike Ukraine but that's another story).
They can make one tho. And who knows if they don't already have one or more and just keep quiet (like Israel).

Also yeah i saw one of those books.
Poland joins the Axis, helps defeat the CCCP and ends up backstabbing Germany so the author can say "Poland strong (and not completely evil)".
