I think you could easily convince Wooly to voice in ether GenLock or RWBY by offering him a stand and/or super robot.

Pat talking about how he wishes they had made different design choices in Dishonored because his disability prevents him from enjoying it as much as he wants to. Sorry Pat, changing those things would ruin the core experience for everyone else and ruin the game as an artistic statement about, uh, chaos. Maybe he should stop being a casual who wants things handed to him and play a different game

In D1 like 90% of your stuff was solely for murder. Andrast fucked around with this message at 06:40 on Apr 26, 2019 |

Dishonored 1 also originally didn't have any non-lethal options at all, they were only added after playtesting because people kept expecting them

There was also the whole thing that you couldn't complete dishonored 1 without using any abilities, which annoyed quite a few thief fans. Other than that I think I spent most of the game just sneaking around people rather than knocking em out.

Nalesh posted:thief fans I guess part of the Thief conditioning is that in Thief 1-3 at least, Garrett is a mediocre fighter made of tissue paper. Trying to fight your way out of mistakes is basically death or maiming. Corvo on the other hand is literally a magic alchemical steampunk spec ops soldier. But again, it doesn't seem to click when I've got the controller in my hand. Tupperwarez fucked around with this message at 07:59 on Apr 26, 2019 |

That's why you skip to Dishonored 2 where things are far better balanced to be about stealthing as per all the feedback they got.

He pinned almost all of the bad time he was having on himself. The only things he even felt comfortable saying were the game's fault were the things they fixed in 2.

Yeah, in fact he explicitly said that he was revisiting it as part of a plan to try and fix himself and beat the mind goblins.

he did point out that a lot of people had the same problems with the game, and they are valid problems cause dishonored wasnt a very good game. i dont think it would be met with rage by him if someone said they should have made the chaos system more clear or some poo poo

DQXI is cool, it's worth a mind goblin or two. Matt started a MK11 Story Mode playthrough. I enjoyed the first episode but I was also four beers in after watching GoT, so YMMV.

I find it hard to give death of the author any real credence especially in a day and age of influencers and most creators being accessible through social media and other poo poo. Also having heard a number of authors, devs, artists, etc. talk about what influenced them and made them feel a certain way about the things they made has always been interesting to me and further complicates doing that poo poo. Also it's always seemed incredibly masturbatory discussion wise to me.

It's hard to imagine post modernism, post structuralism, post colonialism, Marxism, feminism, etc. operating while rejecting death of the author Like how do you do a post colonial reading of Heart of Darkness or a Marxist reading of Austen without also using DOA

Sometimes what an author says about their work and what the work actually says are two completely different things See, for example, the Rising of the Shield Hero's author many attempts to act like he's not writing a story where the protagonist is directly complicity in slavery

People conflate Death of the Author with "what the author wanted to say actually doesn't matter", but that's not what it is. You can have a materialistic reading of a text while still accepting the concept.

It's not so much that the authors intent doesnt matter as much as authorial intent is not authoritative

Death of the Author is an interesting intellectual tool which, like so many other things, is utterly ruined by Dunning-Kruger addled morons on the internet. And the people who encourage them because they are overly impressed by verbosity.
