Not entirely sure what her gimmick was but it was a ton of weird attempts at defending underage anime porn and incest coupled with absolute broke brain takes on "nerd" media in general.

I think she was also the one who jokingly mentioned being run off of lots of other anime forums, or that might've been the anime weirdo who couldn't stop obsessing about every single male-male interaction in anime being gay subtext and comparing it to a specific gay anime; also ended up getting banned with a "you clearly need help but you won't get it here"


When it came up FAU didn't want to ban her and be the reason she killed herself she followed up later with this

At some point she got banned twice in an hour and then a third time twelve hours later.

I liked it on my first playthrough, but the second was painful. Though it did have one of the funniest moments in my gaming life. I flirted with Merill once, but then went total rivalry on her. I then tried to romance Fenris. Fenris did his moody break up thing. Suddenly Merill is hitting on me and my character is having a rivalry romance out of nowhere. That's right, that game lets you hate gently caress your party members.

Dragon Age 2 is an important game because it marks the exact moment Bioware stopped being Special and just became another hole that bad videogames come out of, culminating in Anthem.

Dragon Age 4 will be a battle royale and have a fifty dollar battle pass.

There are weak "deconstruction" games that point out "you're not the hero" but it's always a cheap gimmick and a twist. DA2 never points out to you that you're not the hero, you just aren't because of the things you do and what happens because of what you do. It challenges you to think about whether you're the hero of your own life, either, or just doing stuff you think someone who is the hero of their own life would do, but loving up constantly but no one really points it out to you because they're tired fuckup losers also. The only difference is Hawke is protected by his or her inherited wealth and as a result anyone who does scrutinize you ends up just trying to explain patiently why you're dumb and then sighing and giving up.

lol no

DA2 is terrible in every where, from the dumb story, to the weak writing, to the same dungeons used 47 times apiece, to the terrible combat wave dealie.

It was so bad that it bumped DAI up from "mediocre, bordering on bad" to only below-average for me.

Proposal: "Every time the user pushes a button, something awesome happens"

Reality: Game ships without auto-attack, requiring user to repeatedly push the attack button every time the attack animation cycles, without any actual functional gameplay benefit such as combos, cancelling, or special command inputs.

Or even having the enemies attack tactically enough that pushing it every time wasn't a problem. But newp.

DA2 is basically an Obsidian game, interesting narrative experiment and characters attached to a rushed and unfinished game. Of all the things to criticize it for them not trying isn't one of them, especially considering it was made in about a year.

It's like how calling someone a hack had a specific meaning once upon a time but now goons just use it to mean "person I don't like made thing I don't like".

In most cases on SA, both parties are wrong. There was a girl who defended weird lizard bestiality, but then got beat by her father who was (I think) a district attorney and people thought that was funny. Everyone was wrong.

Posting in fyad and some other subforums would reduce a person's postcount, so there's your likely answer.

To be clear, it was putting a lizard on you when you were naked, not having intercourse with the lizard.
