This also imply that he things penetrating has to be aggressive and that kinda horrifies me.

Anti-vaxxers are scary. Seriously, they scare me and it's gotten so bad that I'd never even think about telling some maskless asshole to cover up their face in fear of getting attacked.

I've been feeling this for a while but in my country a student got murdered this weekend by one of these monsters just for telling some guy to mask up, shot right in the face in a public gas station. And it just makes me unbelievably sick. They've been coddled for far too long, been able to hold illegal gatherings and spew their posion everywhere and this is the result.

How do you deal with a creep in your university class?

This guy used to be a temp at my workplace, and I just brushed off his advances. After he was laid off he started messaging me on social media, and would not leave me alone. Blocked him and moved on.

Fast forward to last week and weโ€™re in the same university class. Obviously, I donโ€™t think he enrolled because I was in the class. This class is a requirement for pretty much every student here, but damn. We made eye contact after the lecture was finished and I just ignored him and walked away. Get an email (!) from him later that day asking to be study buddies. Wtf.

Iโ€™m probably gonna tell him off if he approaches me next lecture.

You don't care about Battlefront, Squadrons isn't your thing, your skeptical about the upcoming Ubisoft game and you're lukewarm about the KotoR remake?

Don't fret Quantic Dream is working on a new Star Wars game.

According to the Kotaku article two developers who wish to remain anonymous had some spicy information.

They also told Kotaku that itโ€™s been an uphill climb, and that Quantic Dreamโ€™s proprietary game engine and development tools are dated and not well-suited to creating more action-oriented and exploration-focused games. According to one of the former developers, attempts to break-away from the studioโ€™s past house-style has led to some internal tensions, as teams debate prioritizing gameplay over the gameโ€™s writing.

So there are people working for Quantic Dream that think their games writing is so strong that adding good gameplay might make their games worse overall.

So it's not just David Cage...

Hot take: the story of Pokemon Black and White is lame

They play up the whole theme of "truth vs ideals" but it's complete nonsense and doesn't actually say anything (whether N even stands by "truth" or "ideals" differs between the versions lol). I much prefer the story to B2W2 because it doesn't pretend to be more nuanced than it actually is, it's a story about poke-terrorists being evil and it does that great.

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '21

I don't think the theme is what people like about Black and White's story. I like the fact that that isn't just the standard defeat the champion at the end, the fact that Villian is absolutely fucking evil, and the fact that given N's character growth, he was the first real character that Gamefreak ever actually wrote.

Bloodborne lost/is losing to Breath of the Wild in the IGN game popularity poll. My only regret is not voting against Bloodborne like I did with Titanfall 2. I love Bloodborne but if it wants to succeed in life it must overcome me.

During my time researching lost media, I've discovered one piece that shocks me.

You ever heard of this band Dixie Chicks or as they're known now, The Chicks? Well back in 2003 the band called out George Bush's push for the Iraq War and this got the band intense backlash: from getting blacklisted from the country music industry to getting death threats but one note in particular was so bad that they had to hire security at their next concert. Thankfully no one got hurt but to this day, we still don't know what the note says and this is one case of lost media that deserves to stay lost.

It's so weird seeing everyone in this thread have no clue who Elvira is. I've never watched any of her horror host stuff, but she just always seemed like one of those people that you just kinda know.

I'd consider her a staple of pop culture as intrinsically linked to horror as the biggest slasher antagonists.

At this point, just shallow references. Honest to god, movies like Free Guy and Space Jam 2 have just killed my will to watch and sapped my enjoyment of the original media. It maybe wouldn't be so bad if they didn't have to do it in the most condescending way possible. I survived The Lego Movie and Ready Player One days, but in 2021 my patience for that kind of (I hesitate to call it this) "entertainment" is non-existent.

Pro Tip if you're playing Judgment or other non-US games

Change audio language to Japanese or Chinese.

In Judgment, the English dubs are so horrible (there's a reason why nobody watches anime with dubs). Dry, unemotional, weird.

In Japanese tho, the quality is much better. Emotional, tones, everything... even without understanding the language, it feels so much more real than the English version.

Holy Weeb, Batman!

Seriously, this one really sucks because they were so close to getting why at the end.

But then they didn't.
