There are statues of the things in every city. People may not have seen them directly, but they know something like them exists as the rulers of the aliens.

Aw yeah, James Dean and Alexandra showed up! And Man "Hottie" Whore is the most amazing thing! This LP is already giving me such joy. I can't wait to see all that is to come.  I can just imagine how Man Whore's recruitment went down.

Nothing makes me want to throw my computer out the window quite like the dodge mechanic. There's already enough RNG! I don't need to worry about doing half damage when I actually hit something! Anyway, not to spoil anything but the Avatar Project is just a 4D remake of the James Cameron's Avatar. The Spokesman wants us to destroy it because he heard that the aliens are replacing the original cast with vipers.

I can't really pinpoint a time or place or particular reason other than Hard Gay is a really funny guy and I love watching him ham it up in what is normally an ultra conservative and shut in culture. But man... let me tell you about all the Hard Gay fan art I've got.... For my eventual darkest dungeon LP maybe? And all of these other assorted Hard Gays from all of the other games I've played Cythereal posted:I knew about it from the Saint's Row 3 LP where Jade Star dressed up his Boss as Hard Gay when he was the guest commentator/co-op partner. Oh man that's right! I had a Boss Hard Gay for Skippy Granolas Saints Row 3 LP. And Halman made me a custom paint job for two of my planes in War Thunder that have Hard Gays face on the sides of them. There's just been a lot of creep into everything I play. A Hard Gay creep.

I don't know if this has been discovered before, but it's possible to throw/fire a grenade to anywhere the game can figure out a path to- including places that are far, far out of range. Place your cursor where you want the grenade to land, and press the button corresponding to the grenade. If it's a valid placement for the IRG (Infinite Range Grenade), the AoE preview will flicker there. Cancel the grenade, queue it back up, and on the frame on which the flicker happens, confirm the grenade. It will land there, and cause damage correctly. The firing/throwing animation will break as well.

Two seconds after I installed Anarchy's Children I knew what Jake had given us the tools to make. The rest of the outfit options were simply a smokescreen to hide its true purpose.

Aside from that one from me, I'm pretty sure jade already has a Hard Gay in there, albeit missing the short shorts and vest. The product of being made before the dlc was released.

I think the JAIDS is infecting my game through the LP. Just had the enemies bug out on a mission. I set up an ambush for a pod while I was in concealment. I set all my guys but one to overwatch, and the last guy threw a grenade at the pod to activate it. I figured I'd do some burst damage, shred some armor, and the aliens would scatter and get turned to swiss cheese by the rest of my overwatch'd team. Instead what happened was. . . Nothing. The aliens literally made no moves and just stood still. Didn't take cover, didn't overwatch, didn't fire, anything. I just killed em and moved on, figuring the game's turn order bugged out a bit. But then the aliens didn;'t do anything for the rest of the mission. I literally could run right into range and they didn't even trigger or anything, just stood still while my soldiers mowed em down. Then they were still bugged when I started the next mission so I decided that was a good time to call a break. hopefully they're not still glitched out or I might need to start my campaign over. I might end up needing to do that anyway since I kinda procrastinated on the Avatar project doing the fun DLC missions that I've never seen before and researching the tier two guns and armor. Hopefully I've not screwed myself one way or another

Of course I'm hardly surprised when things don't work right playing given I'm on the Mac version and Feral can't even be assed to get the last DLC released. Fuckers. EDIT: Ha ha ha they literally released it today. Christ.

Inspired by this I've reinstalled the first game, I've never finished because my original saves in classic difficulty got corrupted just before the final mission and gived up. Today I started a bew game and anfter several succesful missions, I had to repeat the same mission due to the game bugging. gently caress this, JAIDS everywhere.
