I believe the Quiet squishy boobs thing isn't real. People have said if you press very very hard, you can move the material (that the rest of the figure is made of), but they are not extra squishy boobs.

I bought a custom $100 Solaire figure, but that's about the limit of my budget when it comes to "dumb poo poo that sits on the shelf and collects dust".

He designed Quiet before he was fired. Long long before. And her design is pretty messed up, squishy-boob figures or no.

Ruddha posted:Oh yeah? How about your god drat degree?  Content: Playing Rocket League with pubbies is like trying to play soccer in a YMCA public league. Everyone chases the ball like it's a free-for-all with absolutely no regard for teammates, theres absolutely NO semblance of setting up plays, your teammates end up hurting more than helping 99% of the time, and there's always that one rear end in a top hat who will sit in the goal like he's going to be a keeper of some type, but lets every god drat ball go past him every. single. time. Seriously? GTFO and go play offense. Shithead. Sorry. I've been getting smashed lately with idiots who have no idea what they're doing.

But its still sad. Yeah, I think Kojima's really overrated. He gets all the credit for metal gear solid being fun but I'm pretty sure the most Kojima elements of the games are the worst part of the games and the parts everybody likes (sneaking around, killing dudes, hiding in boxes) are probably more the product of Konami's other designers and engineers more than Kojima himself. He comes up with all this crazy stuff that's pretty much Molyneux-esque but manages to push his team to actually deliver. (which is at least better than Molyneux who leaves it half-assed) MGS3 was the best MGS because it had the least Kojima. It was mostly just cold war james bond poo poo, and even the bad guys weren't too crazy. Bee man? Flamethrower man? Sure, I'll buy that. Not too different than Jaws or Oddjob. But even in MGS3 you have things like this, a note about the fight with The End: quote:Hideo Kojima originally wanted the boss fight to last one to two weeks but was told that this was impossible and not recommended. What in the gently caress Kojima.  How did you think that was a good idea? The guy is drinking his own kool-aid. He doesn't really care about good gameplay, he just wants to do crazy artistic ~my vision~ stuff. He's like the George Lucas of videogames.Quiet is just loving too much. Its just awkward. Ruddha posted:Agreed, that loving slore needs to cover up, how dare she wear the kind of thing she likes, I'm much more better than her at knowing things. Its a fictional character, she doesn't want anything. The outfit is what Kojima picked for her, not what she picked for herself. And Kojima is a loving creeper.

That can't be the case because left to their own devices KojiPro either makes mediocre Metal Gear games (Portable Ops) or can't make them at all (MGS:R).

The stuff you mentioned about James Bond / Cold War...that's his wheelhouse. If he could have put Joy Division in it, he probably would have.

Yeah, it's stupid but it's not like the previous metal gears haven't had plenty of cringeworthy poo poo in them. Quiet having a bad outfit is about a billion times better than whatever the B&B unit in MGS4 was.

When recording local videos, is it possible to record party chat alongside? The other night we played a Rocket League match, and party chat was being broadcast on Feenix's stream just fine, but when I looked back at the recordings they only had my voice. I'd rather it not record at all or record everyone, but only recording my mic is awkward and weird.

Even just sticking to Metal Gear games, the sexual elements in 3 work out pretty well for the most part and the sexual elements of 4 are boring and dumb, so it's crazy to condemn a game that isn't even out and discredit the man's work because one of its characters has a dumb looking costume. Also yeah she's already shown a more interesting personality with her whole "lighting Big Boss's cigar with her rifle" thing and her enthusiastic thumbs up than the whole B&B Corp did across all of MGS4.

Surlaw posted:He controls the bees with the power of his erotic dance moves. I felt like they were less disorganized and insane than the others, barring the ending sequence (real life footage in an MGS game = 30 minute diatribe bordering on psychotic disorganization ). It's been a long time though, so maybe it was just me being in middle school when the first one came out, and nostalgia taking over.
