When has that ever worked? I've never seen it work.

Being honest with you? Nothing works. Ignoring them doesn't work because they'll keep trying to do it, blocking them doesn't work because they'll just create alt accounts to harass you, calling them out doesn't work because they'll just troll you harder...

They're shitty human beings and I think saying "you're just doing what they want you to do" doesn't mean anything.

She is reacting how the people that troll her want her to react.

Honestly, either blocking them entirely or calling out their behavior so others can shun the trolls is what you're supposed to do.

Anyway, this is the first time I actually watched the video and I totally agree with her. Well, except for the statement about Morgan and Olivia Munn because old G4 DEFINITELY used those two for their sex appeal, no question.

Kinda feel the same way, though I have the added excuse that I just don't think I have the self-confidence in myself to have a gf and not constantly overthink every little thing that comes up, wondering if I'm doing anything wrong or if she's cheating. It's something I know I need to work on before I can even consider caring about someone else.

My previous "friendships" fucked me up with this. I had too many friends who were either just friends because they "felt sorry for me" or were talking bad about me behind my back. I don't trust anyone anymore.

If the Pope liked it and recognized it was from Undertale, there's a chance he actually did the Genocide route. >_>

The Tomb Raider reboot series is weird for me. The gameplay's alright, thought it was pretty good, but I couldn't give two shits about any of the stories happening or the characters. I forgot what happened in the first and I was pushing myself to finish Rise. It's not burnout because I played them years apart. Haven't bothered with Shadow, at least not yet.

Nintendo is a slow and backwards company a lot of the time but at least when it comes to this they've come a long way.

It's amazing how far Xenoblade has come when it comes to the western market. It took a ton of bitching and petitions to get it localized only for it to be a limited release, to Xenoblade X getting a delayed (but planned, at least) translation, to Xenoblade 2 getting a worldwide same-time release and being the best-selling game in the team's career.

Yeah, I have no idea how they're gonna balance this in the next game either. Peter is gonna be so boring and pointless to play in comparison.

Maybe they'll give Peter new abilities to compensate, or make Miles better suited for stealth operations but is fragile and can't hit as hard during combat.

Holy_Cloud105 posted...

My only issue with Miles is that he makes Peter pointless. He has better powers. The only thing Peter has over him is he's got better Spidey Sense. Whenever they decide to age up Miles he's gonna outclass Peter in every other category because he just has stronger powers. It's really stupid to me.

I can see that. Hell, even in the Miles Morales game his gameplay feels a lot better just because of his added abilities.

It gives a different perspective. I'm not sure how he is in the Ultimate comics, but recent interpretations put him in really different circumstances that might influence his decisions in different ways from Peter.

All places are forced to be super nice to customers, so...

I was really interested in seeing the game development progress until the dev tried to scam people with NFT "required lore" purchases which ended up being nothing.

Fuck money grabbing practices like that.

Yeah, scammers are spoofing numbers, unfortunately.

Jumpscares are easy to implement though. It takes a certain craft to give you that real sense of dread and anxiousness without there being an actual payoff (the jumpscare).

Like, Silent Hill 1 on the PS1 pulls this off well. It doesn't have many jumpscares if any, but its atmosphere and music REALLY creeps me out and makes me anxious about what might be around the corner. It's a disturbing game.

Ricemills posted...

it's that bacon dude, right?

It was another one.

I'm honestly not sure if Gamefreak really is incompetent in the graphics department or it's TPC forcing them to rush the game out. Either way it doesn't look particularly great...like it's from the Gamecube era or something.

looks like it plays in 20 fps.

Huge improvement from the initial reveal, tbh.

I'd like to have one that at least does a bit more than casual gaming, but I can see the issues with someone who games all the time.

Is it the large turd in a small bag with Lets go Brandon in their sig?

Turns out it was someone else later on in the thread.

Ps5. But I dont wanna link it and get in trouble

Oh. Looks like the...guys from the PS4 board migrated over there. I could say worse but I don't wanna get modded.

It'll be on my watch list. The only movie I was willing to go to the theatre for at this point in time was Spider-Man.

It's interesting seeing the reactions here as opposed to other, predominantly black spaces.

I'm curious to see that, actually. More positive? More negative?

evilpresident posted...

So... are they just admitting that they get off to police brutality?

People need to say this to them so they can possibly re-think their decision.

Conservatives continually proving that they're the party of idiocy.

You can tell he's hip and urban because he wears his hat sideways on the back of his head

That was a callback to the original show's intro, either way.

It might turn out to be an interesting take, but I can't get over the idea of turning a comedy show into a drama.

Not counting the new real life RC MK the series hasn't been pure in awhile and it needs to embrace it's identity once again.

I...uh...I prefer when Mario Kart is wacky instead of grounded, if that's what you're getting at. If we want a grounded, skill-based racing game then F-Zero needs to make a return.

There's at least a rumor that all previous suits will return and will have symbiote variants you can choose to wear.

Yeah, I haven't eaten inside any restaurant ever since the pandemic started. It's always take out (or drive thru if applicable) for me.

Yeah, regardless of what you think about Tim Pool, swatting is a disgusting and dangerous crime that should not be acceptable whatsoever.

She pointed to the people currently eating that they aren't masked? Is she fucking stupid?

Something about this feels more fucked up than anything from Ren and Stimpy.

For R&S it was the mission statement. It was expected. Spongebob was pretty wholesome as I knew it, but this. This...

The thing is, some of the earlier Spongebob episodes had gross out humor involving internal organs, but I don't think it was ever that..."detailed."

Did you get in on the whole Tough Love Arena thing that caught on here for a bit? Great game to train from the bottom up.

That the internet browser thing? I did it a while ago yeah. Trying to seriously get into a fighting game now with GG Strive.

Steffenfield posted...

Try and think of it like Dance Dance Revolution in terms of correctly timing the inputs.

You'll get more consistent this way.

Yeah, I started noticing this during training, it's just tough for me to put into practice in actual matches.

I tend to button mash even when I try to play methodically and end up doing moves I don't want to. I guess it comes with practice being able to avoid doing that.

What's Monster Hunter-y about it?

Apparently you're given missions that send you to different regions that you can explore around, instead of it being a large, interconnected open world.

FurryPhilosifer posted...

Can't wait for the "but I thought this was meant to be like BOTW??" when this comes out and is a Monster Hunter game with separate regions and missions.

Yeah...I can definitely see it. There's still a lot of people who think it's gonna be completely open world.

DarkRoast posted...

I remember reading that in one of the manuals. Sonic Adventure 2 actually tried to posit itself as a bit of a face turn for Robotnik. Not sure why they didn't keep that going.

They dropped these kinds of developments with all the characters for some reason. Amy and Tails were starting to be more independent from Sonic and able to do stuff on their own, but now...

NFT Fantasy XVI

You joke, but...that's probably gonna happen.

CinderLock posted...

Gamefreak stated its the next mainline game. It's not a new gen but it is mainline.

I guess that explains the two subtitles then. (Legends, Arceus being the edition)

MrWingnut posted...

Now I'm wondering if I had Omicron last week. Had way more farts than usual. Hmm.

Mine have been absurdly rank.

All the classic games, most of the X games (didn't play X7 & X8 as well as Command Mission), all the Zero games, and ZX Advent.

Kind of a huge Mega Man fan I suppose, lol. Though, I haven't touched any of the Battle Network, Star Force, or Legends games.

It got even worse.

Dude decided to add blatant racism to it as well. It feels like he's just a troll at this point.

saspa posted...

Or that some greedy game company doesn't use loading screens as an opportunity to advertise stuff and promote brands

I feel like at least one of the EA Sports titles have done this before, but not entirely sure.

I can maybe get that making a musical off of a tragedy is in poor taste in-universe, but getting pissed that it's not leading into something new is downright silly.

Scotty_Rogers posted...

You can't take an entire movie and dub over it. That's no different than bootlegging a Japanese film and dubbing it into English.

Gotta say, you make a good point. Like, in a similar manner, you can't just upload a rifftrax of a movie onto Youtube without getting into legal trouble. The way DBZA handled things it straddled VERY close to that line, so I understand why Toei kept going after them.

Having said that I disagree on the whole parody stance. They don't need to be constantly funny and can still play certain scenes straight in order to be a parody, so I was fine with that SSJ2 transformation scene.

Well I don't think you can screw up a roast beef sandwich that easily. But I can just make my own at home.

Not unless they keep the roast beef for way longer than it's supposed to and it gets all gray and moldy.

Yeah, in the age of fast loading those kinds of sequences should hopefully be disappearing. Either make the conversation play out in normal gameplay or make it a cutscene since it already pretty much is one.

It's just Yuji Naka. I feel like he might have lost his touch.

I enjoyed it but it definitely is starting slow, so I can understand the criticisms.

It's probably why I love it so much, lol. It kinda feels like an improved OoT to me, just wish the items had more usage outside their dungeons.
