1) Not dying, mostly. That might sound easy, but it’s the hardest thing you’ll ever live through!
2) Bon-Bon: Your world is full of hate for things that are different. Reading a book wrote by a pony might not make you unique, but it would make you a minority. If anyone even believed it. There’d probably be as many articles bad-mouthing it as there would be ones questioning its authenticity.
Bon-Bon: I got Lyra a Kindle a few years back thinking maybe she’d use it to read something. My mistake.
3) That’s funny! I barely played 2, but I played 3 a bunch! 4 was great and I loved it too! Just not as much as 3.
I never played Mario is Missing. It looked boring.
4) Lyra: Yes! Thank you, Strawberry! I always love eating parmesan pasta!
Bon-Bon: Thank you very much for inviting me, Strawberry.
B: Sarcasm doesn’t suit you. You will never see me.
1) I… hadn’t heard anything about the Ninja Turtles being aliens. If true I don’t even want to talk about it anymore. I don’t want to acknowledge its existence.
My favorite will always be Ninja Turtles 3. Of course, 4 had a certain charm too.
2) Lyra: Okay, now go ahead.
Liza: Thank you very much, Mr. Coffeeseer.
3) Evidently I have to go. It’s not in Lower Canterlot. It was right outside a storefront on a busy street, out in the open. It’s hard for me to understand how nopony could have seen anything…
But yeah. I guess let me know when and I’ll give you a tour.
1) I have not! But it does sound interesting! I don’t suppose you could provide a link in a submission of a recording you feel they did really well, could you?
2) It’s absolutely acceptable to look at the visuals and say, “What did you do?!” Plus, some of the stuff they’re reconning is just… you’re an idiot, aren’t you? You’re changing things for the sake of changing them and are an idiot for doing so.
I hope parents don’t take their children to see it. Because apart from reviewers, I can’t imagine anypony else that would willingly go.
3) Bon-Bon: And there’s some pretty good pony authors that have wrote some pretty good books. I’m not going to lie, it’s a conscious decision and chosen for a number of reasons. Would the average human read a book wrote by a pony? Would I really be able to relate to characters and/or settings created by an author aiming at a demographic located in an entirely different world? And most importantly, as a local business owner, when I spend my bits I’d rather they go towards local authors. And you can’t get more foreign than living on another plane of existence.
I don’t know that the story was deliberately aiming at anything in particular, so much as the general idea of not sacrificing one’s own convictions to justify a lofty concept. Yes, solving world hunger is a great thing to shoot for, but they knew at the start that this stuff was making the ponies working with it sick. But it wasn’t fatal. It didn’t have any long-term effects in small doses. So even though it was clearly harmful to work with, they just decided to rotate workers. Things snowballed from there.

1) Of course you’d win. There’s more humans that play video games than ponies. In fact, there’s probably more humans than ponies period.
2) Bon-Bon: I’ve never read a book by a human author. Though that does remind me.
Bon-Bon: Actually, no. It turned out to be about elevating an ideology above the sacrifices needed to make it reality. In this case they solved world hunger, but by the end of the story they had made so many sacrifices that they rendered the entire world’s population sickly and spread an incurable disease that cut their average global life-expectancy in half. And they created an evasive species of fern that had strangled a massive portion of the world’s plant life.
3) Sorry for the late reply. Sort of been busy the last few days.
It was just a small celebration here in Ponyville. This year the big show was held in Las Pegasus. I heard it was loud and with lots of fanfare. Floats, fireworks; that sort of thing.
1) Of course you did. Don’t care for the 8-bit fad. And it sounds interesting, in concept. Don’t really want to play a visual novel, though.
2) And I remain firm in my stance. Video game reviewing publications do all that work for you, without your having to spend money and time on lengthy trailers and cinematics that do not contain accurate depictions of the game itself. All you need is in-game footage. That’s all you ever needed.
I’m not saying advertisement is pointless. I’m saying the time and effort spent on acquiring a booth, sending representatives and equipment across the world to an expo, producing the exclusive content for the showcase, giving away stuff to get attention toward you and away from competitors, bringing everything back, and the cost of all this plus wages and living expenses for all those involved do not result in a net increase in revenue for a good game and would be better spent on the product itself (or if it’s effectively done, working on the next one). The only end it serves is to help bad games get initial sales they never deserved.
3) Wrong with me? Really? Somepony doesn’t like the same song as you and there’s something wrong with them? I will never understand why ponies get so defensive about music. It’s not an attack on you or your taste.
Don’t like this either. It at least has a decent trip beat going on, but the ironic lyrics ironically sung poorly are irritating and mask a derivative, but otherwise well-arranged instrumental. It’s the kind of music that, if I was cheesed off about something, would only make me angrier with how obnoxious it is.
And I did play with Legos as a foal. Well, with other pony’s Legos.
Lyra: Exactly! I have no idea if it’s still happening or not! I have no asks! But do I have no asks because no pony has anything to send me or are none of the messages getting through?! It’s maddening and-!
Tootsie: Excuse me! I have an announcement to make.
Lyra: Oh…?
Bon-Bon: Of course, dear. What is it?
Tootsie: From now on I will be going by the name, Liza Doolots. I will not be answering to Toosie Flute. So if you could please refer to me as Liza Doolots I would appreciate it. Thank you.
Lyra: … Wha-?
Bon-Bon: Of course, Liza! I think that sounds splendid!
Lyra: Uh… Yeah, Too-… Liza! That’s, uh, ballin’! Crackerjack. Cool…
Liza: Thank you!
Bon-Bon: … I blame you for this.
Lyra: What?! I didn’t even do anything!
Bon-Bon: Can’t wait to have this conversation with my sister.
Lyra: It’s not my fault this time!
Okay, this is going to take some explaining. See, my main in Warframe is Nyx.
That’s it.

Hey.
Uh…
I seem to be losing messages lately. Like, I’m never receiving them. I don’t know how long this has been going on, but I know it’s been happening today. So if you sent me something and I never replied, I didn’t get it.
Sorry.
Edit: You can send it again, though! You can send it a few times if you want!
1) I haven’t seen it yet either, and now I’m not sure if I want to. That was not awesome. Even ironically, that was terrible. My hope remains for Unikitty.
What CNet shows are you talking about? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen them.
2) I completely disagree. If a game is good enough to stand on it’s own merits, ponies will be interested in it for those merits. Look at generations prior to the 3D era. How much publicity did they get?
Video games do not need the same kind of ad revenue as movies or television shows. Video games are not the same kind of entertainment as movies or television shows.

Surprisingly accurate, right down to the bundle in the trash.
1) Code Name: STEAM sounds interesting. Having played Sanctum 2 I can tell you that placing yourself down on the field of a strategy game can really mix things up.
I’d say the biggest problem with the network was the move away from computerized technology. It didn’t need to be a network just about games.
2) Lyra: All of Bon-Bon’s food is awesome!
Bon-Bon: Thank you, Lyra. And I suppose everypony has a few stories to tell. But I’m not a very good writer.
3) Woo! Let’s go! But after I finish answering these.
4) I don’t get the appeal of Reggie Fils-Aime. All he works in is marketing and company image. Hidetaka Suehiro works heavily on the development of games. Now you know me- I love me some content. But theatrics…? Really, the question answers itself. At least in my book.
5) I don’t fully understand what’s happening. I tried looking it up, but it doesn’t make sense. Can you help me out?
