Digimon is generally the better show.

Pokemon games clear though.

Idk cyber sleuth was more fun than any new pokemon games even if the writing and translation is wonky

It's the cold reality of human attraction, sucks but it just is what it is.

Using AI is really shallow and idiotic way to do it. There are salespeople who are just barely average looking but has the charisma and confidence to carry their work well. This is very shitty and discriminatory.

Pretty ambivalent about vavra, but all articles about him that point to it was all 5+ years old. At least not the whole team share his views. He did some virtue signaling but gamegate in 2015 is VERY different compared to 2024's incel gaming subsection.

I dont remember anybody supporting it for anything other than gameplay. Are you literally referring to people getting excited because of the lack of non-white people? Because if that happened, it completely passed me by.

It did happen, honestly the both sides of this argument is so stupid and extreme. The alt righters think because it didn't have poc (even if it has ethnic and religious minorities) they think the devs aren't woke and on "their side"

And the resetera types think the reverse (while completely ignoring the subtext and many portrayal of opression towards these group of minorities because they aren't PoCs)

Well this is a bummer

Meh overblown. How would a citizen in that area react to hungarians? In the text of the game the portrayal is pretty realistic, and while there can be cuman character aside from that one sidequest, overall it's a pretty good presentation of the people and history of that era.

Here is from thw article:

for example. Some of the biggest exclusions, however, stem from a fetishizing of the typical. Non-conformism or deviancy is practically non-existent: there are no rebellious women, no revolutionaries, no religious sceptics on the one hand, no religious fanatics on the other, no representatives of other cultures apart from murderous Cumans, and really no misfits of any kind that arent common thugs.

No rebellious woman: its not rebellious within the context of second or third wave feminism, the concept itself does not exist in backwater bavarian village of 1403, but such character is present in the madonna of sasau questsline. The character defying the warning of the all-powerful catholic church, and eventually stood to be tried in an unfair system. She isnt defiant as in "action, powerful girl that defy patriarchy openly" but in the context of "she was a catholic that has her own principle of how jesus would act in times of strife by helping how she can, and while she knew her popularity woulf draw ire, she continues to help people the best she can anyway" which is pretty badass and makes sense in the historical context.

Cuman portrayed as "thugs" oh mother of subtext and environmental storytelling. When you infiltrate cuman camps, they act like people, sitting, chatting with friends, discussing payment and later you know they are literally hired. They didnt attack because they are savages who exist to kill and destroy they are mercenaries literally paid to kill and destroy.

No religious skeptics nor fanatics: again, the madonna of sasau quest which obvious mly highlights the corrupt justice system of the church. There is a quest in which the inquisition send you to find a Christian sect they deem heretical, when you do meet the "heretics" in question, they are very kind and reasonable people, just practicing their religious belief differently, again as an rpg you are given a choice to become pawn of the tyrannical and corrupt catholic church or help these opressed people the best you can.

There are no "atheists" in the modern sense but they do try and portray the real injustice of the powers that be in thay era and show persecution in the hands of those who wield powers.

Tbh the kickstarter campaign leaves me with a bad taste. Fucking being charged $28 for shipping, which is more than I paid for a physical copy which was said to include shipping, just like all the other campaigns I backed. Then they go back on their word and charge fucking $28 which is such an obvious overcharging for 1 physical game.

I have hopes the game will be good (it probably will be), but fuck everyone involved for doing this shit to the people who financed their game.

Prolly coz they ship from japan <_<

Gotta remember its not us based company

Wasnt the first game a mess when it came out?

It was cpu heavy and like all other huge rpg with branching quests, it has bugs. I recently played last year (march 2023) and it was bug free.

Very Hyped for this. The first one was really great

Silicon life only works on paper it doesn't work for real. Silicon Dioxide is solid so whatever atmosphere is on the planet would have to be so hot that they would exhale vaporized rock. Basically you're looking at a planet of lava monsters.

Of course you can keep changing things up by saying the guys doing need oxygen or water! At which point you might as well ask why even need DNA at all then?

All cute thought experiments but there's just no way to take organic DNA and swap out the carbon for silicon and have it work.

Silicon outnumbers carbon on earth by like 999999999999999999:1 and yet life formed around carbon anyway.

I have a concept for fantasy/scifi story in which some shenanigans caused a portal to open in another dimension and a silicon based crystalline lifeform that have semiconductivity get brought into the world and cause problems.

The concept is these crystalline creatures are mostly immobile and grow like plants in their home world, but their crystalline structures can conduct electricity in some manners and became their neuron-adjacent by basically becoming a naturally forming computers. When they got brought into the human world, somehow they can assimilate with organic being's neural and nervous system if the offspring crystal seed interact with corpses.

In their world, they are immobile, and barely conscious, they are just self replicating crystalline structure with some rudimentary sensory, but assimilated with dead organic being's neural path they can gain mobility, sentience and gain the characteristics of the host's species. They just kinda grew from hosting wild animals corpses but eventually they got ahold of human corpses and gained true sapience. The gist is when humans discovered them, they retaliate from fear and disgust on how the crystal aliens "reproduce" by basically consuming a fresh cadaver to reanimate them and started calling them demons. The "demons" arent inherently violent nor they can infect living beings, but the fact they are born from corpses disgust many humans and war broke between 2 species.

That's the gist really i havent worked out the details but i think it's pretty cool.

One is ce, another one i visit since back then has been overrun by incel and gamergate types and it is frustrating.

I have a private discord with few friends but it's not the same.

Reddit feels like it's at least 70% bots reposting content for karma farm. Small specific subs are fine, but due to how it works, it is hard to get discussion because you posts dont have enough upvotes/trending for people to actually view them. Mainstream social media are all ass.

Then there's huge drama surrounding her too. Most ppl probably know since we're all the same people the past 10 years or so

Apparently p5x is owl?

Holy shit it feels unreal, and it's still as funny as ever. The megumin spinoff is decent but it felt like a car with no wheel because the 4 dysfunctional party completes it and become whole.

^ I get that, but I doubt they'll MIghty No. 9 or Shenmue this one.

Fair, and handful of backers have played the beta and reception was positive. I am mostly optimistic but trying to keep hype level normal

Kamil posted...

I played and beat all the mainline Suikodens. I got the best ending in, well wait, I never finished Suikoden V ever. I still have it on the PS2 though a physical copy. I got the best ending in the four previous. I also played/tried that weird time travel PSP side story that got a fan translation. Anyhow.this game can't be worse than good?

Hopefully it's good. Waiting for some reviews because i have some reservations about "old ex-'game' devs teaming up again to make the good ol games of yore". Sometimes they miss more rather than hit.

But everything i have looked at for eiyuden looks great.

It's just one of those fad things that got popular because people have started idolizing the chiseled jawline look. It's a placebo at best. Another one that was popular for a while were those resistance balls that you chew on to strengthen your jaw muscles (don't use those, they're unsafe and can damage the joints/muscles in your jaw).

Also sound like chocking hazard

Yes all aboard

I exercise more, i can do more physically demanding stuff due to my physical activity, but i guess this is the decade where my body started breaking down from decreasing metabolism and accumulated damage. I could hike a few kilometers now whereas in my 20s, i was sedentary and could barely climb stairs without going out of breath.

But at the same time, old injuries i got from teenage years sometimes flare up and causes minor pain. Especially my left ankle's ATFL ligament that i ripped a decade ago.

I got into an ice skating accident that dislocated my knee during high school, and just recently, sometimes my knee would click wrong and causes some minor pain.

Driving manual shift for years in bad traffic also kinda fucked up my left thigh sometimes it gets sore if i sit too much on the car (i have auto transmission car now, but still)

The part between my elbow and left shoulder also is starting to act up. Again, muscle and stamina wise, i am better than ever. I am the strongest atm than i have ever been but the joints feel creaky and i get weird clicking sound often if i move it the wrong way.

Thankful my parents got scared shitless when my uncle got stroke and got paralyzed. I do hope they seriously learn not to underestimate symptoms
Good luck to you tho, that is difficult. My mother in law has kidney failure and it is difficult to keep her healthy

I was fine with Super's plot, I just didn't like that character regressions that the likes of Chi-Chi & Vegeta made there.

Yeah i agree. It's the character writing that is my issues mostly, but still hsi death hits harder.

I just remembered me as child picking up the manga and begging my parents to have the entire 42 original volume and i read them over and over and over and over growing up.

There is also dragon quests, chrono trigger, they also aired old ass dr. Slump anime in my country. Those old memories rising up again. Despite everything his creations are my best friend growing up.
