Does nightmind count for the purposes of this thread? It's been kind of weird to see him become super furry, instead of mostly furry like before.

Max Wilco posted:I guess I'm really out of the Star Wars loop, since I don't know who Tag and Bink are, and I'm not familiar with any of that other stuff. Thrawn ended up being the main antagonist in Rebels for their third season, and wasn't killed. He might come back in the movies still.

I wish Nightmind wasn't so attached to EMH or the other slenderman webseries, since they've already been discussed to death and are also usually pretty bad.

Honestly with a lot of these internet personalities you'd think that their line of business would teach them when it's best to shut the gently caress up but no one ever learns this important skill boogie loving sucks

I can see an extremely dry gaming news site being appealing for people, though, considering; it's not like you lack choices if you want the opposite.

My buddy who worked in a comics shop for a while said that the worst was yu-gi-oh in terms of attitude / smells. The MTG community is small around here though so that might have shifted things a bit.

khwarezm posted:Yeesh. They really hosed up PVP and all sorts of covenants were broken at launch. I don't know if they got around to fixing it but Like you had to farm ears on the steps of anor Londo if you wanted to get the blue cov items for 100% because it didn't work, full stop. None of the area covenants worked. All the pvp was cestus parry > demon greataxe to OHK. you'd run into counter-gank squads of a host player with no armor sprinting around with two summoned buddy bodyguards, if you killed one the host would resummon them with no cost. The multiplayer queue would prioritize games with multiple players so you'd see them constantly and it totally ruined any invasions.  Max Wilco posted:One of the things that Dark Souls 2 improves on from DS1 (and does better than Bloodborne) is that it makes dual-wielding viable and gives you freedom to come up with all sorts of weird weapon combinations. I remember somebody talking about doing dual pyromancy flames, so that they could punch and shoot flames at the same time. I think DS1 lets you do some form of dual-wielding for a couple of weapons, but I think the left hand is mainly reserved for shields or catalysts. My favorite thing to do in ds2 was belltower guard while powerstancing whips, no one knew how to deal with it but it wasn't overly powerful so they could still beat you.

If you're doing something and it's making you miserable and you're constantly being brought down, isn't that the point where you have to step back and look at everything you're doing and decide if it's even worth it? Is the platform worth having to deal with that?

Dawgstar posted:Furman has also always had a problem with Transformers and gender, even dating back to Arcee being introduced around the time of the movie. Our boy Simon introduces her as a sop to angry feminists wondering 'why are there no lady Transformers!?' and she is literally built for that purpose. Even at point firing her laser while going "Hmph! Men!" It's been a Thing of his for a while, thinking that it's dumb to introduce gender to creatures who don't reproduce sexually (certain horrible fan works aside, I'm sure) while yet ignoring that everybody's coded as male. And not to get too much into the weeds about what we might laughably call "Transformers canon" there's even an episode of the cartoon where back on Cybertron there's a bunch of lady Transformers doing their thing, although they never come back and of course Arcee never gets much to do after the movie either. That's kind of funny I guess, since Steven Universe is similar (gems are rocks that grow new rocks to reproduce) but they're all coded as female. Ah, how history repeats itself in cartoons.

The worst part about wow at this point is that they keep leaning on sylvanas leading the horde even though she won't stop doing war crimes and genocide, which after the time she nuked the horde to make more undead you figure they would have something to say but I guess not

Archer666 posted:The new Wolfenstein games are interesting in the way they make the main characters an unabashed terrorist. TNC also had a weird obsession with nuclear weapons, you set off a handful and get to trek through nuked New York along with some "maybe they deserved it?" Lightly dusted about. There's been a bizarre lust towards nuclear weapons as being cool things or rad setpieces lately instead of horrifying death bombs in video games lately and I don't know why.

Dapper_Swindler posted:in the games there are only 3 nuke blasts. the new york one which happens when the nazis invaded and they used the nuke to force america to surrender. they never play that nuke as they deserved it. some of the nazis brag about it but gently caress them. the other nuke was at the end of BJ and crew to hit the nazi death hell castle run by deathshead. the only other time was when they are trying to escape new orleanes and they need to get the super sub unstuck and its more of a air blast then anything and all of the non nazis are in the sub. BJ sets off a nuclear device inside of that one facility in 2 before he visits his house for the first time. It was just something I noticed and thought was really weird, and that eventually butted up against far cry 5's "nukes fall everyone dies" ending and then bethesdas "epic nuke loots" in 76. I did play TNC in January of this year so the timing made me reflect a bit on that game and the way things have changed recently w/r/t nukes in games.

Roth posted:I don't think I've seen a single reason why Goblin Slayer is good outside of how it owns the libs. Goblin Slayer was fine. It did some interesting things and I enjoyed watching GS interact with people who weren't broken messes. The fight scenes were also pretty good. The anime cleaned up a lot of stuff from the manga, though; the manga artist might be into guro with how some of the panels are done but the anime avoids that. Arist posted:My stance on the Kanji and Naoto stuff has evolved considerably over the years. I never really saw them as attempts to really grapple with LGBT issues and instead they seemed to be very clearly trying to make much more milquetoast statements about gender roles. I understand the arguments that it's erasure, though. I read it the same way tbh. I never played golden so I'm curious if there were some changes there maybe that affected the way people interacted with the story of those characters? The Yosuke thing I always liked and I really wish they left it in, though. E: the worst part about goblin Slayer is that it was apparently cursed by a witch and any conversation about it will inevitably explode into an argument.

Epic also checks your root certs, which no program needs to do. The conspiracy theory is that it's doing this to search for DoD certs for targeted spying purposes, but I find it more believable that it's epic doing a ton of scraping for info to sell.

It takes more effort to set up an epic account than it does to boot into whatever tracker you have and grab a copy of metro or outer worlds or w/e, and Epic has said they're covering lost sales so it's like you're not even pirating at all!
