"Argentina president claims to communicate telepathically with dead dog, which gives him advice"

Not an Onion headline. This is real. This is 100% real. That sister-fucker is beyond deluded.

 

It is canonically said that Saitama is limitless, and iirc it is said that Saitama is always +1 to whoever he is facing

 

Such BS logic and word-of-the-author applies in-universe (within the canon) only. When you go out of it, shit starts hitting the fan and that logic goes out of the window. Even ONE himself acknowledged this in some interview.

Alien X from Ben 10 was described as "nigh omnipotent". Yet he gets his ass handed to him by the heavy celestial hitters from literally dozens of other series (Marvel, DC, Image, Fate, etc); including some considered weaklings by even heavier celestial hitters.

Same applies in this instance.

Saitama isn't a true toon-force gag character like Bugs Bunny or Arale. You pit him against someone with power so ludicrously above his own that he can't surpass or even just catch up in time? He gets obliterated. This was even explicitly explained (twice!) in the video itself. The current power gap between him and the strongest characters in the likes of DBS, Sailor Moon, Saint Seiya, etc is just that mindbogglingly stupid. They probably had to explain this twice for the sake of One Punch Man's fanboys alone.

Modders have managed to get PS4 & PS5 exclusive games to forcefully run on PC at double the frame rate of the consoles.

There are still crashing issues and abrupt frame rate drop issues, mind you, but the community probably has better technical support than the USD 100-200 billion company.

 

• Saitama was created as a parody character whose defining attribute is that he broke his "limiters". During his fight with Garou, it was revealed that Saitama's power grows exponentially in real time whenever he faces a strong opponent or experiences extreme emotion.

By definition, Goku can't beat him ever tbh

 

ngl thats pretty based actually

 

Finally settling in, eh?

Game publishers moving to cloud only will result in an even bigger backlash than the digital only push. People will outright stop buying AAA slop and move to indie only. And when it starts hurting their bottom line, the suits will either learn or pin the blame on something else entirely.

 

This is what is known as a "no-limits-fallacy". "By definition" and other such flowery language nonsense means nothing if the character has shown actual perceivable and even demonstrable limits to what they can accomplish within the laws of their own canon and especially so when comparisons are made to outside of their own canon.
