You can distinguish Party Babyz from Regular Babies by their cool shades, glow rattles, and five o'clock shadows. Regular Babies never stood a chance.

Your way works too posted:I have had real bad airport problems in the past. I got tossed in a communal cell in England for over 24 hours by immigration. When she reached the part about having an anxiety attack while all that poo poo was happening I had to stop to podcast and just bury my head in my hands. It just sounded horrible. I've suffered panic attacks in the best of circumstances and they're horrible but to have two in airplane travel circumstances is the worst. The part that really got me was how they gave them cots to sleep on but then woke them up at 5am just to take the cots away as if this was some sort of torture program designed to make them feel only slightly comfortable before ripping it away. People should travel by train more often. It's more expensive (not much more) to get a private room and it takes longer but it's the best.

EExcept for that whole "it takes twice as long to take a train as it does to drive, and flying is even faster." I used to ride the train home from college over the holidays and holy gently caress so slow. I could literally put chains on and drive the entire distance faster and more conveniently. Eventually I ended up doing just that, and it was. I really want to play that airport mgmt game though, sounds like Prison Architect. coyo7e fucked around with this message at 00:24 on Oct 17, 2014 |

Take an extra day off, it won't kill you.

My only flying horror story was flying from India to Singapore to Tokyo to D.C. to Norfolk on military orders. Managed to get bumped to a first class seat on each flight and customs in each country had this express line for "VIPs" where I showed my orders, got scanned, and was on my way. Then I arrived in loving Reagan Intl. where customs was some Ellis Island poo poo of walking shoulder to shoulder down narrow, poorly lit corridors and a thousand people are scrambling to get their bags from a single carousel. And you can't turn around or stand to the side, someone will yell at you to move forward. Ended up missing my flight, losing my luggage, and passing out at the USO thinking I'm going to be UA literally days before I'm discharged.

Do you really thing that a video game journalist is going to buy a room on a train and have wine tastings on the way to GDC? No, they are going there for work, and then going home as efficient!y as possible. By your logic, I could argue that everyone ought to travel by river paddle boat because it's all about the Journey not then destination.

Eh, there's nothing wrong with waxing poetic about what could have been if high speed transit ever had a snowball's chance in hell in this country. It's pathetic because spending money now would save money and time later, but that would affect this quarter's profits.

I took time off work and went half across a continent and really didn't want to do a wine tasting - I wanted to get it done and get home. You seem stressed out, you could probably use a nice relaxing trip.

A little late, but http://lparchive.org/God-Hand/ has all the songs as far as I remember, near the bottom above the fan art. Personal favorites are Demon Elvis's theme and Devil May Sly, Devil Hand's theme. Also, good LP by Kung-Fu Jesus showing off the game, reason why I bought the game.

I'm going to talk about my worst travel experience in a list of event. - I had to fly to Licking county court in OH from the Bay Area due to a speeding ticket. - My flight from SFO got delayed two hours. - Arrive to Chicago for my connecting flight, my original flight got delayed so I can get to board another flight to Columbus OH. - Flight keeps getting delayed. - Finally board, start making fast friends with a OH native who is going back home from a funeral after spending a week in the bay area with his family. - I tell him about the ticket and tell him some lovely sea stories. - He mentions if the flight in cancelled he will rent a car. - Flight is cancelled and he offers a ride to OH. I pay for the gas. - We ride in the torrential rain down the I-65. - There is a massive traffic jam in I-65 due to an overturned truck - Some time later we arrive in Columbus and I rent a car to make it the rest of the way. - I arrive an hour late to my court date try to explain my situation. - They don't care, they tell me to come later that day or to appeal for a new court date. - I appealed for a later court date and fly back. - A couple of days later I get a letter saying my appeal got denied and to show up on that day, which already passed. For a while I had a warrant for my arrest in OH for doing 40 over the speed limit.  I already took care of it via a lawyer thanks to my awesome OH friend. Midwesterner are awesome people, the Midwest itself not so much

I'd just like to point out that just after 28 minutes in the GOD HAND cast Kole says "in so close insofar." EDIT: Also, no one told them to bet on Lucky Clover. EDIT2: Sort of sad that the Mike Tyson interview that most of the enemy barks (and a line from the ending song) come from didn't get mentioned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4l0ZyKmeNE I just... really like that interview. moller fucked around with this message at 06:06 on Oct 17, 2014 |

It's pretty great and baffling with the proper context while also being great and baffling without context. I'm pretty sure I googled the phrases when I was first playing the game because they made no sense. GOD HAND made me a fan of Mike Tyson's unique style of personal expression. "I can talk about humility, but I'm not humble. I mean, if you say, 'I'm humble,' you've just contradicted yourself. But I'm trying to be, man, I'm trying so hard." I want to eat your children.

Oh I see. I get very angry when I remember my experiences on Greyhound. Or when I went onto PSN last night after WOFF said I could get it there for  and it was (and still is) down. I've been intimidated to play it but given Platinum are my favorite publisher and the glowing recommendation at the start of the WOFF episode, I'm gonna dive in. I didn't know that clover made it!edit: PSN came up, GOD HAND came down. To my Playstation. 3. SoulChicken fucked around with this message at 14:07 on Oct 17, 2014 |

I don't know what the thing about farts you're talking about is but the last time I rode a train in a private room it smelled pleasant and didn't cost much more than a coach airplane ticket. Plus nobody had to look in my butthole, I just went to the station 5 minutes before boarding and got on. It's one of those quality of life things that becomes way more important as you get older.

Since you guys on WOFF didn't spend much time on the higher difficulties in God Hand and since my life is Hard Mode and my hometown is Level Die, here's most of what level affects: - Like you suspected, the higher your level, the less inclined enemies will be to take turns when fighting you. Demons are still one on one fights unless you intentionally piss off another guy. - Demons are loving assholes. - Enemies start blocking faster and push back much earlier, which makes predictive dodge-canceled guard breaks much better than reactive ones. - On Die, all non-tiny enemies are immune to getting blown away by normal launchers and highly resistant to sweeps unless you get a counter hit or they're already dizzy, making crowd control much harder. - A lot of enemies have one or two moves that wax and wane with the difficulty; for example, generic world 1 fat guys have a slow charge move that they only do on low levels, whereas on high levels they'll substitute it with E. Honda-ing at you at increasingly ridiculous speeds. - Nearly all moves that aren't directly level dependent either get faster or involve more hits, especially on 3 and Die. For a particularly painful early example, you have maybe a quarter of a second to react to Elvis's jump-stomp dodge counter on Die. Quick time events also have smaller and smaller windows. - Enemies will dodge and counter heavy attacks with infuriating regularity, to the point where any move that you can't cancel the recovery of is suicide unless you know for sure they can't punish you for it. - Little devil challenges are played at your current difficulty level and reward you proportionally. - Lastly, there are encounters that are completely different or don't happen at all depending on level. I don't know how many of these there are but the big one I recall is Mr. Gold and Mr. Silver's waves of henchmen - there's two basic elites at the end that jump in through the windows if you're on Level 3 or Die. It's a really well-crafted system, probably one of the best implementations of dynamic difficulty I've ever seen. If you're willing to beat your head against Level Die for a while you should try out Hard Mode, it's a hell of a drug. HMS Boromir fucked around with this message at 18:17 on Oct 17, 2014 |
