They Hacked Mario to make him insecure (I love it)

[@knivesoutcatchdamouse2137]

A quite underrated hack, in my opinion. I loved the insecure messages in the message boxes. Poo didn't really look at a lot of them (quite understandable given the circumstances), but there is a running theme of insecurity in the thoughts of the hack's creator, which are conveyed in the message boxes and subtly hinted at in things like the level names. It's from the perspective of someone who had a previous hack that was not received as enthusiastically as has been hoped (possibly by a player or creator they respect) but they are somewhat self-aware, in a humorously ironic way, of their oversensitivity to small things like comments made in frustration by a streamer who was stuck on a segment, or by Twitch chat just being chat and memeing on the hack, and so the message boxes and level names and credits, etc., all sort of play on this idea in a really funny way. It's also just a really good hack.

[@modernkiwi6447]

When does Mario have a realistic depiction of a panic attack?

[@JasonOvalles]

This hack was so dope, I had to comment just to say how much I liked it. It really subscribes to the kaizo sentiment, although in a slightly insecure way.

[@paraquietusghosty6407]

And just like that, you subtly hid “comment”, “like”, and “subscribe” in 1 comment. Clever stuff.

[@brianarsuaga5008]

This hack was excellent. I really liked the eye indicator for safe moments to look ahead. Awesome music too!

[@anjoliebarrios8906]

8:40 someone in chat says "let the bug hit you?" which made me think about the logistics of a fuzzy being a bug. For one, it's too big. It's about the size of small mario, so about half the width/ height of an Italian man. Assuming "big" Mario is 5 feet tall, fuzzies are about 2.5 feet in diameter. But its actual body might be a lot smaller, because that 2.5 ft includes the fuzz. If you were to pluck all the hairs off a fuzzy, the 'real' animal might be a shrivelled naked thing that's unrecognizable as a fuzzy. Much like a hairless racoon or bear.

[@oeuftheoeuf]

Thanks, i never wanted or needed to think about that. Though real talk there are some fuzzy insects like that one species of caterpillar, so a fuzzy being an insect isn't all that far fetched.

[@anjoliebarrios8906]

@@oeuftheoeuf you're right! and there are other oversized bugs in Mario universe. like the ladybugs and ants in 3d world. although, I asked my gf and she said it looked like an urchin. Maybe it's just its own thing like Yoshi.

One Charizard beats 1000 Lions. Charizard flies in the air and uses flamethrower. GG

[@elizathegamer413]

does it beat one million? there are one million lions per pokemon. i dont care that much but i thought it was an interesting fact

[@benkopczynski2190]

I believe the standard argument is "flamethrower is a single target move with 15 pp. By game logic, he's screwed."

[@elizathegamer413]

@@benkopczynski2190 eventually he'd have to use struggle. and then self damage kills. if you go by game logic, the lions obviously win due to sheer numbers. if its 1 billion lions and ~1000 pokemon (there are 1025 total pokemon at present), thats around 1 million lions per pokemon. its simply impossible to NOT run out of PP trying to kill 1 million opponents

[@OverlordIcy]

Gardevoir Creates Black Holes, kills infinite, then ofc Legendaries, Dialga with Time sends them to the past when the planet didn't exist, Palkia with Space to ship them to the nearest Star instantly. Giratina Banishing them to the "Shadow Realm" and then there's just God itself Arceus to do whatever it pleases to eradicate them. Just a select few examples and 1,000,000,000,000,000,000+++++ Lions Stand ZERO chance against, let alone with every other Pokemon by their side.

Holy shit, this hack looks awesome! And much more approachable than a lot of Kaizo, too.

[@elizathegamer413]

if you think about the lions vs pokemon thing, and assume that theyre in the context of pokemon battles, because 1 billion is so much, the pokemon that the lions simply get destroyed by (for example legendaries or ghost types because regular ass lions are bacially just normal types) eventually would run out of PP, because they'd have to take on like 10,000 opponents or something, which would force them to use struggle, which would eventually eliminate them. Other ones would probably take maximum 100 lions, but the order of magnintude is such that there are around 1 million lions PER POKEMON. (1 billion divided by 1 thousand (there are apparently 1025 pokemon at present)), so the math just works out that way. Of course we're assuming that this uses regular pokemon rules and that lions are roughly equivalent to like a level 5 pidgey or something where they're just not very good. If we were in the case where PP was not a thing, maybe it wouldn't be the case.

[@LimeHunter7]

Yeah, that's why he was talking about "anime rules". If it's the games then you're absolutely right, the Pokemon lose the struggle-fest for sure

[@thepurified8386]

@@LimeHunter7 with game logic only 6 lions can attack at once, so recycle + leppa berry resolves all pp issues, then a mon like clefable can just set up to +6 defense and use rest until every lion dies from exhaustion
