Ya beefed it. I guess you forgot the button to start the duelling minigame for second base. Total rookie goof.

The Oscars only added an animated category after some cartoons came dangerously close to winning the best film Oscar instead of a "real" film. I think it was beauty and the beast or something.

It's me, I'm the jackass who doesn't really care for Spirited Away that much. I love Princess Mononoke, I love Howl's Moving Castle. I should probably watch it again, though. I think I only watched it the one time when I was like, 15 or something.

Nah Spirited Away marked the point where Miyazaki pretty much gave up having on having a coherent narrative and turned all of his movies into a series of barely connected vignettes.

I haven't seen Spirited Away again since like 2002 but I felt at the time that it just kind of weird and didn't really get the adoration it was getting then and obviously continues to get now.

The thing that seems funny to me about the Oscars is how it compares to the Globes. If you took an industry and I told you that there would be two competing awards, one done by people who work on creating the products in the industry and one done by people critiquing those products, which one might you expect to be the snobbier one? Has any sports game ever actually had a tutorial for teaching the sport itself?

I forgot Fire Emblem Fates came out this year, didn't it? Conquest might well be in the running for my personal GOTY. The story was garbage, but playing it on Hard with perma-death on and making it to the end with zero deaths is one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I've ever had. I really hope the next FE game uses Conquest as a model for its gameplay. Some of the best turn-based strategy maps I've ever played. Speaking of turn-based strategy, XCOM 2 was this year too, wasn't it?

Though really, FE Fates Conquest ended up being a more memorable and satisfying strategy game for me, and that surprised the hell outta me, because I wasn't expecting it to be so different from Awakening.

Conquest is such an amazing game, and it's cool they did the split game approach to keep people interested who preferred the Awakening style (because I didn't and conquest brought me back in love with the series again)

I played through the Colorado mission in Hitman for the first time last night. I was very worried about it being extra difficult based on what I was hearing on my podcasts, but once I got the first disguise there were only a few trouble spots. I did all the assassinations with accidents and I kept following the anti-terrorism expert around because she was my last kill and I had wasted my lethal poison earlier in the mission. Took me way too long to see the chandelier that she stands under, but it was funny to hear her talk up the bombmaker and drop all these hints about how to kill him, when he died in a gruesome battering ram incident within minutes of me getting my bearings. As with most of the stages, I'm interested in seeing how to orchestrate some of the more entertaining sounding deaths (pushed into a slurry pit, for example), but I don't think I'll be replaying it like I did with Paris. Then I wrapped up Titanfall 2's campaign and started playing multiplayer. hoo boy, that's a fun game. I didn't know how to rodeo Titans; I thought it was "Hold Square while near their feet" so I got crushed a few time. Looking over the thread it looks like I need to land on the top half of a Titan to ride it. Now to figure out how the experience system works.

It's much harder than Awakening or the other two Fates paths, but, crucially, that difficulty is legitimate. They didn't just stuff wide-open maps with beefy enemies and reinforcements that attack on the same turn (in fact, reinforcements don't get to do that anymore at all). They gave enemy units actual Skills, like your units get, and in some diabolical combinations that also play around with the map layouts. I actually had to stop and think before every move in many maps and I loved it. I'd played the Birthright path first and liked it well enough, and that gave me the confidence to play Conquest on Hard instead of Normal, and gently caress am I ever glad I did. If someone's going to pick it up in the future, if you only play one path, make it Conquest. You should only play on Classic (permadeath mode) if you're a purist or a masochist, but I will say that I don't think I'd have been quite so giddy after completing the game if I'd played on Casual. Finishing the whole thing, on Hard, with zero casualties required a ton of resets and I got very, very Mad At Video Games during my repeated attempts at the last two chapters, but god drat did I feel good when I did it. Easily my most satisfying gaming experience of the year.

Revelations is also interesting as an extra path. The maps lean a little too Awakening for my tastes but they also have a high volume of super gimmicky maps which is kinda cool. The enemies never feel as carefully designed as Conquest and they give you every character from both games without retuning level and stats for when they appear in Rev so you have a massively unbalanced and bloated squad to mess with but I think it's worth a play. More interesting than Birthright at least

More interesting than Birthright at least I sorta treated Revelations as a victory lap, myself. I really wanted it to have the enemy design of Conquest and the map gimmicks didn't really do quite enough to make up for it, for me. So I kept playing on Hard and just abused everything I could about the class system to break the game wide open. My +Str/-Lck Corrin, Xander, Ryoma, and Camilla were absurdly powerful. I had Xander and Ryoma become best friends so they could use each other's classes and let me tell you, Xander with Astra and Swordfaire is hilarious. Ryoma with Luna is also pretty good, but not quite as spectacular to behold. And Camilla is just Camilla and is gonna be nuts no matter what you do.

Yeah, I realize that this is my male privileged speaking, but there are very few clothes that I wouldn't consider "easy to wear". Of clothes that I've worn that aren't easy to wear, that's mostly because they don't fit.

I played Revelations on Lunatic to see if I could manage it and at a certain point I put it on casual because it was just too hard for me. Yeah some of the combos you can make in Rev are insane, but I never made a more powerful character than just Swordmaster corrin with +SKL. Every attack was basically triggering Astra for 200 damage by the end game

Well I beat Mother 3. In typical Mother fashion the scenes before, during, and immediately after the final battle were incredibly touching. I'm really not a fan of the ending at all, though. The entire game up to then was really good. So satisfying to know what ultimately happens to that bratty little weasel Porky too.

There are a lot of miyazaki films that I've seen where I'm like "well that was a thing" and they're animated well and they're fun but then I can't remember a goddamned thing afterwards about them. Like, I saw kiki how many times and I still don't remember how that movie even ends. I don't think it was miyazaki but I did enjoy the cat returns tho. That was a fun one.
