Don't get me wrong, I don't find myself in the SJW/tumblr-tard category that I can't even enjoy something because of those things. Lord knows it's throughout some of the best seasons of The Simpsons and that will always stand as my favorite show ever. But that's added in with the already weak character development that's rampant in anime ("That creep who's trying to make a move on me seems like a total dickwad"....5 episodes later "OHMYGOD HE'S DEAD AND I LOVED HIM I MISS HIM SO MUCH") certainly doesn't help.

It's fine, I just see people spewing out SJW buzzwords and I instinctively groan and get the urge to put a pistol in my mouth.

I actually kinda don't care about Gunvolt's storyline and thought it was kinda lame. I have the 2nd Gunvolt downloaded but haven't even bothered playing it, so that's about how passionate I about about Azure Striker Gunvolt. It's just that whenever someone is like "I'm mad about X thing because politics" I'm like "oh goddamn it here we go"

I had the misfortune of reading his huge rant about how women were ruining Transformers fiction a while back. It was a sight I wouldn't wish on others.

Anyways, back to Gunvolt, that last discussion made me want to replay it and I'm sad my good computer is currently kaput. Maybe by the time I get it fixed GV2 will be out on Steam.

Oh believe me that poo poo drives me nuts too. I had a mutual friend come over and she pulled Being John Malkovich off my movie shelf because she'd never seen it and we were all trying to figure out a movie to watch. (and it's one of my favorites) 15 minutes in she's complaining she hates all the characters and I'm just:






Wes Anderson movies have also been problematic for her because characters like Steve Zissou are deeply flawed. The point I think I was trying to make is, characters can be shitheads as long as the overall material is engaging, well written and paced. Something that practically all of Anderson's movies are despite often having some pretty screwy protagonists. (which I still find extremely entertaining)
People like her are just impossible.

I apologize for that derail, thread. That's what I get for poking beehives.

If any mods are reading this and want to probate me, feel free. The Internet... really kinda sucks. And these are trying times. And this poo poo gets me loving depressed. I'm probably better off not posting here.

I wish I grabbed a screencap of ImpAtom calling me complete scum. I used to be liberal as gently caress but this kinda poo poo just keeps driving me further and further away. I'm sure he\she\it means well, but I'm just so tired of all this pure frothing rage and insanity. I started seeing this poo poo, noticed I was doing it, I looked myself in the mirror and went "Oh God, what have I done?"

I kinda stopped using twitter because of the constant hate and abuse on there... maybe I should stop using these forums, too. God, it just isn't worth it. Especially in a thread about freakin' Mega Man games.

And what's funny is LemonLimeTime is taking it well and being totally rational and I think we're on the same page here, it's just Aces Cures Planes and ImpAtom being batshit crazy and telling me I should die. Yep, I'm definitely an alt-right nazi gamergater when I vote for Bernie Sanders then Hillary Clinton. Okay.

You are complete scum. You're telling people who genuinely can't ignore the world that they should ignore the world and acting smug and self-satisfied by it. Then you're wringing your hands about how it makes you 'less liberal' because... someone isn't nice to you? Look at what you're saying. Right now, look at your post. Look how goddamn spoiled your posts are. You have the ability to shut off the news and not care about how any of that stuff impacts you and for some reason you lack the ability to understand that that doesn't apply to everyone else.

I assumed you were going to drop it but if you're not then you're going to get a genuine answer. You're acting like a selfish child who thinks that plugging their ears and pretending things aren't happening is a solution for everyone.

While at the same time asking everyone to feel sorry for him because the evil SJWs are insane for some reason? I haven't actually nailed down what he is actually upset about. Either way the irony alludes him. As his aggressiveness out of nowhere started this.

So you want people to be nice and care about you and play to your tender innocent feelings but you don't want to care about or empathize with anyone else? Why do you think you have the right to act like a douche and everyone should give you a pass on it, but in reverse you expect me to go "oh gosh Gammatron, I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings."

It might have to do with this thing I noticed while replaying it recently:

Lurdiak posted:

With all the tools the game gives you (up-dashing, unlockable ride armors, armor part chips, summoning Zero to sub in, Zero's saber) it's a shame it also heavily restricts your use of them. Most ride armors can be used for like one screen, Zero will teleport out the second he sees any kind of door (and perma-die if you gently caress up while playing as him), the chips can mostly be gotten really late in the game (and 'optimal' play means getting none of them so you can get the golden armor when the game's 99% done), zero's saber is similarly inaccessible until the end game... The game's really afraid of letting you have fun with all your toys.

I kind of had the opposite experience. I played the games in sequential order, and I remember being really perplexed when I came to X3. I did not like it anywhere nearly as well as the previous games, but outside some of the more obvious flaws, I couldn't really articulate why.

More than anything, I think it comes down to level design. X1 has extremely strong level design, and X2 might have the best in the series. X3 level design is incredibly inconsistent. Blizzard Buffalo and Electric Fish are pretty good, but most other stages are really poor.
