I mean, bosses input reading my heavy attack to suddenly turn their three move combo into a four move combo 50% of the time feels a bit lame. For instance the dancing lion suddenly going into the spray carousel after it would have exhausted its combo and rested otherwise. My main issue is on the inconsistency.

Don’t get me wrong, that fight was really fun and I overcame it, but there are many such cases where it feels overtly like the game just threw in the extra attack as a “fuck you” while trying to learn the mechanics. There might be a subtle cue to the boss’s body language I didn’t see but there’s also the issue of the camera in encounters with large enemies.

On the whole though, as frustrating as it may be at times, often there’s still an underlying pattern. The only fights I think are explicitly unfair are the ones with adds or multiple enemies that add a lot of uncertainty especially if some are off camera. The twin gargoyle fight comes to mind, as does the Godskin duo where you explicitly have to kill both around the same time or the other respawns.

Imo their issue was in not forming a broader union coalition before picking their workplace

I don’t know anything about non-cartoon guy, but after confirming my guess, the sign behind says “Sneed’s Feed and Seed” at the top which is indeed a Simpsons reference. Apparently it has ties to 4chan culture as well, if the knowyourmeme page is anything to go by.

The Simpsons character is from the episode/scene in question, and I don’t know if he is given a name because I’ve never seen the full episode.

Edit: Additionally, the Simpsons character has been edited specifically to resemble a rule 34 rendition of Omni-man from Invincible, in which the artist depicted him with a suit on, but very skin tight and leaving very little to the imagination with everything visible through the suit. The original image was/is also shared around a lot in some spaces, mainly for shock value but there could be additional meaning. You can also find info for that on the knowyourmeme page for “Thicc Omni-Man” (potential NSFW warning)

No idea what the significance of the choking-with-buttcheeks is, but I’d imagine it’s not great.

It’s definitely not as easy from a mechanical standpoint.

Very scientific example

Which fossils are we running today?

El chupacabra in the backyard aqua?

In a court of law, for sure. But for discussion between an employee and boss, I don’t think that works the same way. I don’t think your boss would have the right to compel speech out of you like that.

Unless it works differently in the UK?
