i thought flcl was cool in like 2004 but i tried to rewatch while going through and purging my dvds in like 2014 and nope not my thing anymore.

I tend to avoid watching/reading stuff I liked when I was younger since they will inevitably be bad.

Those loving forgotten realms books were awesome and had fantastic writing and I'm definitely never reading a single sentence from them again.

Not as an individual, but as part of an aggregate population, yes.

Data channels are a finite resource based off of infrastructure. It isn't a magical resource that springs out of the aether.

Somehow companies in other countries manage to have no data caps on their connections though

Having a data cap is like trying to solve a traffic congestion issue by limiting how much you can drive per month

There are plenty of cities that do odd/even rationing on driving private vehicles and it does actually work pretty well

That limits when you can drive, not how much. The equivalent would be something like you can't use netflix/stream every other day

Using wait mode in ATB defeats the whole point of the system in my opinion (and makes it far too easy)

I liked Skyrim and FO3 even though I acknowledge their flaws. I loved New Vegas.

I played FO4 for under 10 hours before I quit out of boredom.

I liked Overwatch because it let me play an FPS game competently even though I can't aim for poo poo

Which, realtalk, is exactly the reason I don't like it. So many of its abilities stun or otherwise take control away from the player, or just kill a bunch of people in the area with little need for precision.

I just meant that I could play non-aim intensive classes like supports and some tanks and still be pretty good at the game.

I also managed to get good at aiming with Zenyatta but was still poo poo with everyone else.

yeah and so is space battleship yamato, my point is that hes like "heh, I STUDIED UP' and then presents stuff that are the first five google results when you google '80s rock' 'things from japan' 'british comedy'. where're the deep cuts. tell me when this guy is referencing mushiuta or loving la-only rock bands from the mid 80s or something.

I don't actually disagree. I just wanted to say that Pratchett is great.

Some of my relatives bought me Ready player one as a gift since I like games. Good lord that book was awful (well, the beginning was awful because I couldn't bear reading more).

RE4 isn't scary at all and it is technically a (fantastic) horror game

Depends what you consider 'scary', stuff like the cabin defence or the first time you find a Regenerator or the Verdugo boss fight are tense as gently caress which amounts to the same thing for me.

In that case Dark souls is my favorite horror game

I've seen people compare Dark Souls to survival horror before, so I don't think it's the most farfetched idea in the world.

Scratch that, my favorite horror game is fire emblem Conquest on lunatic.

The writing in it was horrific too!
