Yep.

Six missions down.

Eight to go.

The sixth one was a mfer though. Hardest puzzle in the game so I had to be super descriptive.

He's a 37-count felon and adjudicated rapist.

Remember that video from his 2016 campaign where he said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose votes? The implication further being "or face any consequences"?

He was correct.

Why yes yes I do.

Yoooo Calli on the Chewie and Fuckface show next week!

Bae got to the part in Yakuza 5 where she plays as Haruka being an idol and some of the stuff she's seeing and hearing is hitting a little too close to home.

Remember how years ago Calli was like "I'm not your dad" and then Kobo came along and

I meant the death games being put to an end and the bad guys getting their comeuppance.

I saw a post on social media earlier this week suggesting that, seeing Netflix capitalizing on Squid Game's success, the creator chose this bleak ending as a "fuck you".

Which is to say that the point is that one man can't defeat the system, no matter his ideals. To defeat the Games is to defeat the system that led to the creation of the Games. As long as unfettered capitalism exists, the Games will exist. The best one can hope for is small victories, like the saving of Jun-hee's baby, Gyeong-seok's escape, and the Korean facility being destroyed.

Furthermore, In-ho was "infected" by Gi-hun's humanity, as he showed by following up on Hwang and Gi-hun's daughter.

Small victories, which is all individuals can hope for attacking such a system. That's what I believe was being said.

Twist: the expected thing happened.

Anyway, there's going to have to be a serious social dynamic switch if the series moves to the US. A lot of what built the series is the specific social dynamic of collective gain in a lot of individual situations.

i still dont know how to feel about the whole idea behind including the baby as a participant in the games by taking the place of her deceased mother. like i know these VIPs revel in watching these participants fight and kill each other over money but i felt like this was way too fucked up, i dunno... lol

Pretty sure that's the point.

That shit was way too depressing with no satisfactory, crowd pleasing moments.

Sorry you didn't have fun watching the inhuman death games?

All Gi-Hun had to do was accept the deal to throw that beaten up guy off the platform in the last round

Yeah you definitely don't understand the point of the series or Gi-hun's character.

Like this entire past few months has been so one-after-the-other in terms of stuff distracting me.

Expedition 33, Blue Prince, Squid Game, Death Stranding 2, and now I just got my Switch 2.

I know no one's asking for the guide except me, it's me, I'm asking for the guide, because the only guides we have are YouTube guides, the original GameFAQs guide from 1996 and a Steam guide that added a few screenshots but not much else to the GameFAQs guide.

Only Kronii could perform Hololive's cleanest eyeroll.

It sure was a show that existed.

6/10. Nothing truly awful about it, but boy did it just languish without any real Watanabe sauce.

They should have let him make the wacky ass show he wanted to.

I'm setting mine up right now.

Didn't actually want to transfer EVERYTHING to my Switch 2 but I did anyway and now I want to transfer a bunch of stuff back oh well.

the irony of a criticism of capitalism being franchised out.

Oh that fell apart once the game show happened.

Fertilizing

Realforce posted...

Depressed, but I get why they ended it like that. Not looking forward to Squid Game USA despite David Fincher being set to direct.

The entire social dynamic changes with an American setting, which I honestly don't think fits the premise.

Hey I liked it, but y'all know me I haven't got taste.

Anyway, I think the deal with the VIPs is that they told them to talk stilted so a Korean-speaking audience can understand them a bit better.

It's wild though because I feel like Gura's model wasn't remotely as expressive as Saba's. Seeing this much vivid emotion with that voice.

Seriously what's with the ears.

Everyone scooting along ahead

Not me. I'm taking this nice and slow. Only made two delivers so far.

I sat through that whole thing and WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE TWO EVEN TALKING ABOUT.

Like, just misapplications of concepts that only tangentially relate.

Pick a lane, for crying out loud.

And tem

Yeah for those of you without embeds, it's Bibbidiba, Ahoy, Play Dice, Carbonated Love, and Reflect.

Reflect is a free song without needing to buy the pack.

what kinda bothers me is that gustave has a gun, like an actual proper pistol, it's his second "knife" that he has when you switch his weapons

but it's not used, in battle he, like everyone else, just shoots magic bullets from their hands or swords

so like what's the point

He's a nerd.

Forgot to post yesterday but Hololive coming to Rift of the Necrodancer.

Great game. Did you finish it?

Getting there.

Blue Prince is actually pretty cozy if you're into interior decorating. :)

Apparently there's a major update coming with QoL features so we'll see if that's one of them.

Ah good some new tools.

You're saying the Republicans are stupid, but not THAT stupid?

Is this more for Jimmy Voter or is this more for James Donor III?

...And for it all to have been a complete scam towards the Republicans?

Which is to say, the candidate is himself progressive or at least liberal (yes of course it has to be a him), but there's no record of that. He runs on a false ticket of placing himself as a successor of Trumpian policies, keep up every bit of Trumpian rhetoric, not have Trump's baggage, but just completely fool the Republican electorate into voting for him, and then win the electorate and reveal at his inauguration that he's going to do none of what he promised?

Effectively fooling both the Republicans who buy into it and the Democrats who try and fail to organize a counter-strategy to get someone better?

Like I'm just wondering if there are any laws against that.

And yes I am asking this under the presumption that Trump won't run and win in 2028.

Yes this is a harebrained idea, but like I said. Intrusive thought.

And now as I finish typing this, I'm wondering if it was attempted historically downballot or in other countries.

How is dating multiple people at once a bad thing? You are in a dating phase not in an exclusive relationship.

It's heavily implied at the end of each dating minigame with a particular woman that you're choosing to be exclusive.

And if you get to this point with a second woman after committing to one, Yagami will think to himself "Huh this would technically be cheating wouldn't it".

Trumpo posted...

Why can't a Yakuza lead be in a long term relationship?

One or more persons at RGG Studio are convinced that their player base is bound to dating minigames, therefore no one is allowed to have a committed relationship or else it would be bad for them to do all those minigames.

Dungeater posted...

i dont know how to vote. it's fucked up that Yagami preys on these women at all.

Oh absolutely. Half of them are past clients of his. Half of them he saves from assault and they strike up a relationship based on that.

And half of them are barely of age. Sana is 19 and Tsukino is 20.

There is only one genuinely good match for Yagami and it's Amane. The two of them form a proper working relationship ahead of time and actually compliment each other's skills quite well. Also she's 27. The only "negative" is that she's the "loopy fortune teller".

NoxObscuras posted...

I would say that besides Nanami, none of that is particularly messed up if you reject them. Happens all the time in reality. Sometimes it's "don't feel a spark" after 1 date, but sometimes you can reach 4-5 dates before that rejection happens. There's usually no expectation of exclusivity until several dates in when you officially discuss that.

But it's definitely messed up to make things "official" with multiple women at the same time

I do want to point out that each of the relationships involve Yagami saying things about how interested he is in pursuing a relationship with them, how special they are to him.

There's a TON of dialogue basically leading them towards the idea of proper relationship.

Like it's not a case of "oh you got the wrong idea about this I just wanted to hang out and have fun and I want to let you down gently". You only really get to the end by pushing the "I want a relationship" track.

So while Nanami plumbs new depths of fucked up, they're all pretty awful.

EpicMickeyDrew posted...

Whats this game about lol

Murder mysteries and punching dudes.

Now I will point out that you can get this trophy without actually making any of them your girlfriend.

You just have to go through the "pre" dating, getting to know them better, going out to play minigames, getting really close, get her "intimacy meter" up, and then have her confess her feelings for you.

Once that happens, the trophy pops, and you'll get the opportunity to confirm or reject the relationship. There is no gameplay penalty for either except that if you reject the relationship, you can't play minigames with them anymore.

......Except that you spent all that time, basically all but telling her you're SUPER interested in dating her, only to pull the plug at the last second. Yagami's excuse is something around the lines of "main plot stuff is happening and my life is in danger".

And it is PARTICULARLY toxic in the case of one woman: Nanami. Her deal is that she's incredibly shy about getting back into a relationship after so many bad ones, you basically have to work with her best friend to TRICK her into hanging out with you, she discovers the trick, rejects you, but then you engineer ANOTHER trick to get her to a spot where you can finally have it out and she agonizingly confesses to you, noting how messed up it all is.

...aaaand you can just say "Nah."

Oh and the outcome looks like this:
