Sorry, my response was indeed overwrought, but I wasn't trying to be clever with my original comment either. I don't think it really warranted being called out in such a rude way as if I was being some kind of idiot for expressing my opinion in a conversation of opinions on a general topic thread. So yeah, sorry, but also sheesh.

One time I had what I thought was called nitro brew and it was like, a can of beer that when you cracked it did some sort of thing that make it foam like crazy to simulate a draft pour and it was pretty good! So then every time I've gotten a nitro brew coffee I'm expecting it to do the same thing and it never does and I still get mad

Yeah, I do have to agree though In general if we're having a fun convo, saying you think the topic is vapid or whatever just doesn't really help anything.

If art discussion is boring to you, propose a new interesting games topic for discussion.

I think any praise it got was from people who assumed that not a single jrpg had been made since their childhoods and making breathless pieces about how these brave indie developers were moving the genre forward, when in reality nobody involved had played one more recent than earthbound

the battle themes by toby fox and bo en were pretty good

im not gonna defend yiik but seeing all the stuff that got scrapped as well as what the original ending was supposed to be makes me fascinated by it. its never going to be good but its occupied a lot of my brainspace because of how much it fails on basically every level despite having a lot of stuff that would be good in any other game (assets, music, concepts, even some of the intended plot segments would work in a different game)

but im not gonna get into it because its a bad game and nobody wants to hear me ramble about a bad game that people should not play

Using Elisa lams tragic death as an impetus for the plot is one of the most inspiredly moronic decisions I've ever seen on a game. It's like they set out to make a game everyone would hate and succeeded beyond their wildest dreams

this is inexcusable though, especially how the game actually handles it

Oh wow, ick. The amount of media that has used that girl's death for inspiration is frankly disturbing.

The fact that the big update somehow decides to go even harder into the reference is perhaps the dumbest part of it.

also i beat the demon of hatred yesterday! it wasn't too bad either. like i said on discord, when i first started fighting owl (father mode) i felt overwhelmed, like this was the wall I'd be unable to clear. i did in the end, but more importantly i didn't feel that way during the demon fight and i don't feel that way while learning the final boss. i will not hesitate

lol these requests are such a roller coaster ride. even the ones with no direction that are quite complicated and that have a course full of steps can represent a world of difference in terms of consistency in lateral thinking like audino's is just 'hey i hear audino likes to dance, probably good odds outside' with a picture of its generic spawn point. theres really nothing in the logic of the request that would indicate this has anything to do with drawing a crowd, but you can notice over a period of familiarizing yourself with the pokemon around the area and when they do what, when they go where, what they do to what stimulus to build a story out of there being a general gathering around audino's zone you can consistently add to with different actions, on top of the reasonable theory that it'd like to dance to an audience. experimenting with seemingly unrelated tasks for the sake of it feed into this information flow like discovering the pokeball vivillion and subsequently having that pair head audino's way or catching the starly on the cabin roofs flying in a tight circle around near enough where audino is if you pester them off with hits from apples, and then other pokemon passively head that way over time too. multiple avenues of discerning enough building blocks to eventually put the solution together despite it require several disparate acts, a few of which are quite fussy and specific. it's the complete inverse of something like meganium's pal despite arguably being around the same tier of trickiness

I mentioned this a long time ago but I think that there's a lot of ways that he could have used the Elisa Lam thing that I would have been totally fine with, but he instead just uses it as like...aesthetic? Which is loving insane.

There's an album I really like that has two songs that both prominently feature the Lam story, but it's about the artist's personal relationship with the story. The first song (Window Sash Weights) mentions it as something he came across and became obsessed with while he was doing a ton of research into true crime documentaries and serial killings (one of his previous albums had a song on it written on the day Richard Ramirez died and talked about his influence), and he decides to go to the Cecil hotel where both Lam and Ramirez stayed. The second song describes his actual stay at the hotel and him trying to piece together the info he's seen online, but ends up with him reflecting on him being basically a voyeur to the situation and that it's kind of hosed up for him to have been treating this like a game of detective when there's a pair of parents out there whose daughter died.
