Talk through one more Cut Scene and i'll twat ya...

Well, if garius is a woman, it may involve some kind of running jump, with legs spread, kinda like an erotic version of the face hugger from the Alien movies.

Must not giggle like a maniac at face hugger references linked to Garius.

The worst part about cutscenes and why it’s so annoying when people talk to you during them is that you can’t pause them, and if you want to see it again, typically you have to reload your last save and fight through some horrible battle that you just barely scraped through the first time. So yes, time to smack whoever it is who’s yapping at you during the cutscene.

@garius

heh. over this side of the pond you’re more likely to hear it being used to mean “punch” than with respect to the more delicate bits of the female anatomy

Where I’m from, it means more than just to punch. It usually refers to beating the shit out of someone.

Sounds like a good member title to me.

Garius, don’t worry. The cut scenes you’re missing are just to let you know that winnie the pooh quite liked his honey jars, and now tigger wants you to help him bounce up and catch the baloons.

Let’s just say that five pounds is the MINIMUM necessary for him to be twatted any time in the near future. Or even in his lifetime. I might decide to have him race chocobos for his penance.

Oh, my. I’ve been there. Don’t have him race chocobos, that’s actually kind of fun. Have himtrain your characters for you for a couple of hours.

FYI North American Dopers:

the “twatted” in question, should you wish to begin employing it in your life/workplace/church, is pronounced with the short soft “a,” as in “fat,” not the long soft “a” as in “straw.”

I say we get out there and twat it!!

…not the long soft “a” as in “straw.”

Who pronounces it "twawted"? Maybe the Queen does: “Sod orf, commoner, or ai shall twort you”.

Twat (hit) rhymes with fat.
Twat (furry chequebook) rhymes with got, no?

[Larry_Mudd]

I think Rodd’s note was intended only for those North Americans who aren’t anglophilic enough to be familiar with the verb “twat,” and would likely mentally pronounce “I’ll twat ya” with the same pronunciation used for the colloquial anatomical signifier.

This would make it sound a Brooklyn cabbie’s threat, which isn’t the right effect at all.

Ya teat.

I understand now. Boy, I remember when videogames didn’t even have stories.

Many older games had stories. They just didn’t try very hard.

@Bad Dudes

The president has been kidnapped by ninjas. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president?

I actually don’t mind training my characters. On the other hand, I suck at the chocobo races, and don’t like them at all. I even prefer the lightning dodging quest to racing and/or training chocobos.

Of course I am speaking of FFX, here. I enjoy racing chocobos in FFVII.
