Jay Rust posted:Hurray for skeleton!, therefore skeleton ahead I love stuff like that. "Don't give up, skeleton!" So, because I'm such a sucker for that, I went over and looked at a message by a skeleton in DS2 last night. I said simply "skeleton". Fuckin lol. Take your upvote.

Besides "don't give up, skeleton", my favorite DS2 message is "horse?" next to any creature that isn't a horse. No, message, that is not a horse, but points for trying anyway.

I just found one of those in the Majula mansion, where the pigs outside really do sound like a horse. I wanted to put "pigs ahead, therefor liar ahead" in front of it, but of course there is no "pig" in the word bank.

Polygon is unfortunate because for the longest time they were actually making plenty of good original content with the McElroy bros and Nick Robinson and actual unedited footage of games, they just happened to come out at a time when hating games journalists was never more popular or fashionable and they committed the mortal sin of not hating the Xbox One enough at launch. So now they're another crappy Kotaku-esque pop culture/lifestyle blog in the name of driving clicks and Car Boys and Monster Factory are buried in a sea of "hey, remember [pop culture object]???" clickbait videos.

Every time I load up the original Final Fantasy on an emulator, I accidentally load an edited ROM in which the only change, as far as I can tell, is that the "Nothing here" message has been changed to read "No poo poo."

Well, if nothing else, so far the first hour of Mafia 3 is better at world and tone setting than any of the GTA games Also seriously holy poo poo at the soundtrack and atmosphere driving around town

I liked the mafia 3 atmosphere when I first started playing it but after so many hours the weather effects went insane and it alternates between extremely bright sun showers and ghostly illuminated plants everywhere

Every game should have Dark Souls messages. Or stuff like Mario Maker where you could put a Miiverse post on parts of the stage.

It's really easy to skip over "some sad guy did something video game-related that no one cares about" news articles rather than getting all upset about them and sending them to everyone you know.

Palpek posted:I really liked it at that moment too but it really goes downhill when the game opens up. It just makes you do a lot of samey repetitive things to push the story forward and you'll start wishing it was GTA. It's really lazy about padding, side content is non-existent or bad, 2k hosed it up. The soundtrack is amazing throughout though, as well as the setting and even the collectibles - that's something that won't change. There's a spotify playlist for the OST.

I'm going to bring up Dead Rising 3 again, and Dead Rising in general. That series honestly deserves to be congratulated for its portrayal of older people and aging characters. Characters ALWAYS look natural when they're older, and aged characters look really good. It looks right, and they sound and act right for being older. That's one of the big things that DR4 fucks up that is really unfortunate, because it's been one of the things that Dead Rising has done so well.

H e l l o games chat thread How is everybody doing today? I had an ok day. Voted, went to eat n park for the breakfast buffet, didn't have any nightmares last night which is good since yesterday I was having like nothing *but* nightmares so the day is pretty chill now. I'm gonna see if steamgifts has the killing floor community packs up as giveaways because I wanna see if I can win them >:] I've been wanting those for a long time, if only for that flare revolver because firebug was a lot of fun in killing floor and flare revolver would give me a good reason to go back to it imo. So anyways yeah how is everybody?

I'm fantastic! I voted, did a test for my class and I feel confident about my grade, and now I'm cheerfully waiting for election results by playing Broforce, KeeperRL, and contemplating picking up LiEat and the dollar tier of that new humble bundle. I'm thinking I'll treat myself to more games once I'm sure Hilldawg is going to win!  edit: https://twitter.com/andrearitsu/status/796143681074036736
