MY OPINION IS SEERS OF THE THRONE PROPAGANDA IGNORE MY GNOSIS-IMPAIRED RAMBLINGS

He's got this peculiar pattern to his voice, I'm not sure what it is about it.

It's the even, almost disinterested way he talks to people coupled with the horribly sadistic poo poo he does to other players. Case in point, the video where he tricked players in Dayz into chugging gasoline with the straightest voice ever.

He's basically the video game version of Patrick Bateman.

Apparently two years ago I griefed a guy so hard in Space Station 13 that he never played the game or made a youtube video again:

The video says episode 77, but his attitude about dying makes it seem like he's never played before.

In SS13, shooting a single adminhelp if someone just kills you out of nowhere is acceptable. One adminhelp. Make it non-whiny and just say that X killed you. The admins aren't going to tell you much because telling you if someone is a traitor or not is stupid as hell since you stand a chance of being brought back into the game in some way, or you can tell someone in deadchat and they'll be brought back.

This guy just kinda cried about it and kept sending adminhelps, which I'm sure is annoying as gently caress.

I don't know about that. Aeris ended up being revivable without cheating*, after all.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

I like how it gives a spoiler alert when it already is obvious what it is when you've read up to that point in the article. If you are going to make a reference to Aeris dying, comedy spoiler tags lol, it's not that hard to figure out what's going to happen in the other game.

It's also not even a game but one of those visual novels. The article mentions trying to trigger it by brute-forcing, and if that's how something can be played it's time to get your Steam refund.

The story is interesting but its reeeeeealy hard to not feel super uncomfortable with the 'waifu' poo poo going on, and I bet the developer hides behind: "oh, but that is just part of my social commentary on how women are treated, not doing this to attract creepy dudes who lap that up, nope"

she has another visual novel where a high school teacher facebook stalks and then macks on one of his students without even a hint of irony (it was so bad that it got gassed out of let's play of all places) so it's safe to say christine love is either unapologetically doing poo poo to make dat paper or is 100% ok with the creepy poo poo she writes

considering the environment visual novel creators are in i'd lean strongly toward the former. it's basically the situation artists are in for commissions. do you refuse commissions from creepy, clingy furries or do you eat tonight?

I think I looked at that one game about the school teacher and was immensely creeped out by it. I don't know why anyone would want to play it unless they are severely messed up.

during the LP, before it got gassed, the 'fans' of the game repeated ad-nauseum that it was created and published in some absurdly short amount of time, like 90 days or something, and as such all the painful writing and poo poo should be excused, or at least explained.

complete bullshit, of course, but it really only goes to make me even more sure that she does what pretty much any red-blooded person would do and shits out what's gonna stack cash.

Reading wikipedia it looks like it's mostly about the consequences of spying on information when it's limited, so not just outright some weirdo pedo dating sim, but the plot summary makes it seem like there's zero consequence to agreeing to date the girl who macks on you :psyduck:

Also you can intercept a nude pic one kid sends to another, but it's password encrypted, and there is actually a password to type in, which Love spilled the beans on (it's a middle name of a character). So you can see underage anime porn in that game. Again, :psyduck: :wtf:
