That's Zelda Williams, Robin Williams's daughter. From a quick google of the dates, I'm guessing the weirdo reply guy was doing his thing right after her dad died.

The whole setup for why you get betrayed is stunningly dumb, then the entire finale from there on except like three minutes was devoid of music or any background noise I knew about the musical number but I'm not 100%ing this to see that

Honestly I just wanted a good cutoff point for your CONGRATULATION! single screen of Engrish finales RBA Starblade posted:The whole setup for why you get betrayed is stunningly dumb, then the entire finale from there on except like three minutes was devoid of music or any background noise I don't think I noticed the silence, I was getting salty that the boss was basically just an HP sponge of a heli before a flaccid final showdown. I uh... Didn't know the musical scene was 100% only, I think I was legit at that when I finished. maximum joy fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Aug 12, 2024 |

And eventually started drawing himself as a blue Care Bear for some reason.

Shard posted:The problem with the game of thrones game was using the show actors and not letting you kill the show characters. Too limiting. They should have just treated it like a what if and gone wild It did lead to a pretty funny ending for the game (and series) where basically no matter what you did all the cool characters and actors thought of the player characters as huge losers and assholes

i got a video in my feed from a young woman advocating for people to start building their own websites again and had a chuckle at her independently reinventing the concept of a webring. maybe we really did have it right the first time around

Khanstant posted:The Internet had a couple peaks followed by brutal capitalizations. i do think there's a genuine yearning for more authentic content and personal creativity, especially with AI rapidly rendering search engines useless and clogging up the pipes of socials. the hard part's discoverability, and i'm sadly not sure how you'd go about solving that in a way that wouldn't just create a new service for google to gobble up once it gets big in 5 years

a lot of people that would have been making weird websites twenty years ago either got on co-host or are making gemini capsules now

There's a small but growing "indie web" out there. Neocities and the like.

Hm, well I don't think Visions of Mana is for me, sadly. Tried the demo and while the gameplay was surprisingly action-y, the characters and VA were not at the level of "I would enjoy dozens of hours of this." Usually in a game when I start skipping dialogue it's like 70% of the way through, not after five minutes.
