yea

i voted no, but i've never been someone who puts 200+ hours into a game.
60-80 hours would probs be my limit. A few games i've got 100+ with in the last 5-10 years but probs wouldn't need more than 2 hands to count them.

7.5

I've barely watched anime since around 2014ish but off the top of my head from what I watched when I was into it:

1. Gungrave (Brandon)
2. Code Geass (Lelouch)
3. Full Metal Panic Fumoffu (Sousuke)
4. FMA: Brotherhood (King Bradley)
5. Darker Than Black (Hei)
6. Is This A Zombie (Ayuyu)
7. Steins;Gate (Okarin)
8. Sengoku Basara (Date Masamune)
9. My Teen Romantic Comedy Snafu (hikkigaya)
10. Blast of Tempest (Aika)

Edit: if movies count, I'd probs include sword of the stranger, trust and betrayal, redline and the first 2 Nanoha movies.

6/10

Never gone past 5

I'm not particularly loyal to anyone, will happily watch someone I generally like less over one of my favs if the latter is doing something less interesting.

Moona Hoshinova, Enna Alouette, Millie Parfait, Fulgur, Saruei, Charlotte Suzu and Amiya Aranha are probs the ones I pay most attention to right now tho.
Pomu Rainpuff, Vox Akuma and Shiki Miyoshino probs in the second tier.

Burn My Dread ez

After the above, Risu hit 10k on a karaoke stream and Ollie hit 1m subs.
Very good times for HoloID.
Best time for the new gen to debut.

Makes sense to do it now, last week has the been the most eyes on ID since late 2020 with gen2 debuting, pekomoon, risu's NNN and korone collab, etc.
Moona got 20k viewers for her 100 song unarchived karaoke, Iofi got 4kish for her latest Iosalon, all well above their usual. If it was supposed to be at later date makes sense to push them forward a bit to strike while the iron is hot.

Push, Put It Down or Fingerbang probs my favs from what's included.

no brian boitano, this contest has lost all credibility,.

reddit complains about everything what are you talking about

The Witcher 3 was to reddit what Link is to Gamefaqs.

JSRF holds up a good bit better than the first imo.

yea shame it's never getting rereleased and an Xbox exclusive. Much better game than the first one gameplay wise.

Enna just released the best original song of the year:

I saw a lot of people specifically praising Moonas performance

her, Kiara and Risu seem to be getting the most praise from the EN/ID acts for different reasons.
From what i'm seeing in clips from today/yday, Moona smashed it out the park but the performance was a bit out of place? not the type of performance you'd expect to hear at an Idol concert. The JP girls seem to be saying she's more of an "artist" than an "idol".

A lot of WRPGs
Planescape: Torment and VTMB the ones that immediately scream to mind.

Apparently there were 4 different Chamber of Secrets games. I only played the PC one and remember liking it. Not sure if it actually holds up

The handheld Harry potter games on the gameboy were short, final fantasy esque turn based combat RPGs.

Think only the first 2 got handheld versions tho.

No

Of all the collabs, this is not something I anticipated happening.

late to the party here, but yeah. eyeopening to how big vtubing is in Japan for fans who are ignorant to the JP side of things like myself. I'm told Hololive and Nijisanji are market leaders in Japan when it comes to streaming but don't really appreciate what that means until you see stuff like this.

In the west, Gura is the biggest fish in the pond and she still feels rather niche.

Yes

4/10. I liked it more than most, some of the characters were fun.

Shame Fulgur seems to like portraying himself as a bit of an abrasive dick, he's a damn good streamer. Enjoying both his Cyberpunk and Detroid playthroughs. Great commentary, good energy, very good at controlling his chat, very good at interacting with his chat when he's not being a hardass. Had his stream on mostly as background noise while finishing up work and doing dinner and he actually had me paying attention to it quite a lot which surprised me coz i've never been at all interested in any other playthrough of Cyberpunk. I'm now installing it >_>

I get that he seems to want more orderly, slower, less parasocial chat when compared to Vox, Luca ,Mysta etc. but feels like he's gone overboard in achieving that.

Very interested to see how his collab with Selen goes lmao.

6/10, probs being kind to it

Rush Hour

We've seen over the last few weeks that even minor incidents turn into big dramas because the audience decide it wants this to become a big deal. The Nene stuff in particular was bad but at least it looks to have blown over.
So yeah kind of up to the fanbases on this one.

This mostly.

Personally I don't think there's a lot to be offended about that in the leaks, Fulgur's comments is the only one I take issue with but Council underperforming isn't exactly an uncommon opinion due to a lot of people expecting them to have the same success as Myth did.

It'll be interesting to see how this develops, I think part of the reason Nene's drama didn't blow up was due to how quickly both sides settled the issue. In this particular case, I doubt anyone from niji or Holo will want to acknowledge this happened so you're just left with fans filling in the blanks.

Will say I'm incredibly disappointed that even the talents feel that they're in some stupid war tho, the increasing level of tribalism in the fanbase over fucking anime streamers has been terrible since the males debutted but I was really hoping it was just limited to their fanbase.

Yes

Not necessarily my personal thoughs on the games but GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2, Smash Bros Ultimate, Skyrim, Breath of the Wild were all heavily hyped mainstream games that still seem to be highly though of.

just to add to the drama from yday, Super Nenechi's admitted and apologized for tracing another artists art and releasing it as official merchandise.

looks like thats where it's going to start and end, Nene's apologized and the artist seem cool with it.

Psychonauts 2

The Lauren stuff is hilarious tbf, think hiatus is waaay too much of an overeaction, maybe Japan is more taboo about pirating porn than the west?

i saw a tweet of the actress asking him to support the official release next time, idk if it was real or not but funny shit either way.

Finished all main story missions, some more elegantly than others.

So far my ranking for the setting would be something like
Paris > Sapienza > Bangkok > Hokkaido > Marrakesh > Colorado

Sapienza has a really cool town, but the underground lab is really constricting.

would probs have Marrakesh above Hokkaido, but other than that it probs matches my rankings.
really liked the 2 tutorial missions as well but i don't know how i'd rate them compared to actual levels.

6/10

it takes two

Dunno why this is happening for ID, they seem to do pretty well for themselves. Would've thought they wouldve merged with en if anything. There's been quite a bit of drama relating to their KR brach tho, that'll probably be scrapped.
