It's French, and it has the most awful name imaginable for use in English- rape. With a diacritic over the "e", although it is also sometimes spelled rapey. It's pronounced "rah-pay". Oh yeah, rape. I've seen the word before in books. By "the word", I mean the word you're talking about, not... you know, the other word in the English language.

Huh... that's weird. Râpé means shredded, like for shredded carrots or cheese, we'd say fromage râpé and carottes râpées. Wouldn't think they'd give the same name for a fig spread. Then again, you only mentioned a diacritic over the e, so maybe it doesn't have the accennt over the a making it a different word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I just looked up the exact path. Easily the worst part of the game tbh. Heads up, a requirement for the true end is coming up soon. It's very hard to miss and even if you somehow do miss it, you can easily get it after beating the game (you can't do the DLC without it anyway).

Sooks Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 YOOOO I am good. Me. Rixia must be so proud. Now you might be saying "But Sooks, why is the image faded white? I can barely read that!" The answer to that is that the game uses a fade to white to transition from the minigame results screen back to the main game, and in my excitement I almost forgot to take a screenshot. So this is the result. However, I did mess up with the minigame itself. I assumed that the only reason to pick normal mode over easy mode was for bragging rights, and had been trying to unlock the achievement on easy the entire time. Apparently normal mode, while also upping the button count from two to four, pretty much doubles your points for literally everything, making the 4000 threshold so much easier to reach. I wonder how much time I would have saved if I had just done that from the beginning... Also, use a controller you're familiar with. It's a lot harder to panic and press the wrong button on a controller you're familiar with (assuming you're using the face buttons) than with keys on a keyboard, so I hit every ghost first try when I decided to switch to a controller. I also wonder how much time I could have saved doing that from the beginning... Either way, I spent an hour or so trying to unlock a random achievement. I acknowledged very early on into this endeavor that it was not worth it for the achievement, however, I also dd not want to acknowledge that I gave up, so this is the end result. Call it stubbornness or determination. I know what Rixia will be calling it. 24 minutes ago, Father Shrimpas said: Next steam sale tomorrow huh Omoriiii Unfortunately, it looks like I did not get to try Cold Steel in time for this sale. Oh well. 21 minutes ago, Father Shrimpas said: Yeah i am interested in Omori this sale. If it goes down to 10 bucks i might pick it up Good. Very good. I don't know how likely it going below 10 bucks is since I don't even remember how much I bought it on sale for, but 10 bucks is better than 0 bucks. 32 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: I hate lowercase "m"s. In some fonts with certain words, I have to stop and to pause and make sure it's an "m" and not "rn". Well, that is unfortunate. But if Rixia were to be involved in such a minigame...

I didn't know there was sniffable tobacco actually, nor do I know what snuff videos are, but I guess ignorance is bliss on that subject. I think the only instance where I saw that word used was for "snuffing the life out of someone". Looking a bit at the etymology, I saw it was used quite a bit for wine, but I couldn't find the root yet. I wonder why it appeared for such different usages in these different cultures. Maybe I'm just looking too far and a 4 letter word containing 2 vowels is just something that would commonly appear even if it weren't spread around.

Then again, you only mentioned a diacritic over the e, so maybe it doesn't have the accennt over the a making it a different word. Or maybe the American who threw the word on YouTube vid simply didn't copy the "a" diacritic. Or maybe it's an older French spelling, not sure. Considering the recipe does call for mashing the figs and raisins after boiling them (although the cook in question opted for a modern blender instead of the ancient mortar & pestle), I can see the "shredded" aspect in a sense. 16 minutes ago, Armagon said: Oh yeah, I just looked up the exact path.

Hmmm... I think it's about boiling the grapes actually. It seems it can also mean a certain drink made out of grapes you macerate in water, probably linking to all the wine definitions as well. Like, if they call it "un rapé de figues" then it would mean the fig spread has a macerated grape base or something. Probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 6 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Thanks for the heads up!🙂 No prob. Also just wanted to clarify about the whole "being able to do it after you beat the game" part. Basically RadFish realized that they could save the player (assuming they've beaten the game, regardless of ending) time by allowing them to skip to the end instead of making them do the final dungeon all over again. So if you do miss it, you don't lose any time really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
