That said I fully respect the opinion that Sonic games are overrated

Sonic 3 & Knuckles has a :krad: soundtrack though and there have been some neat tricks in this run where they unload parts of the stages.

That.... would be interesting. There'd certainly still be a strong melody but the sardonic undertone would just have the player questioning the necessity of going fast.

There's something about the nice bright graphics and big sprites in Mega Man II on Game Boy that makes it way more appealing to me than most of the NES games.

I Wily's base is all trippy with melting clocks and...

the game broke :rip:

Missed Knytt, oh well. Hopefully I can catch the NieR and Dark Souls runs this afternoon.

Cat has decided that with no Knytt on offer she might as well go outside and get baked, but she sent the chickens over to keep me company.

Wait, they have to get to 50k to get it matched? I thought it would be matched up to 50k.

Just realized the NieR run is ending A only! Still cool, but I initially thought it was ending C/D and that they had some truly ridiculous skips to get that 1h30 time estimate. Maybe next year.

Octatonic posted:

Thank you! :fluffy: Left to right: Lane, Rory, Lorelai, and Mrs. Kim. (I think. I have trouble telling the last two apart.)

They're a bit less lovely when they're all pecking at the window because there's !!a bug!! inside, though.

They have not been super clear on this, makin' me a bit nervous :/

That said, we're at $25,840 on Tuesday, so maybe we'll get there anyways? We can hope.

I’m sure it’s whatever they have up to 50k is matched, so at the current 26k they’d get another 26k. They’ve said a couple of times between games that whatever donation you see on the screen is effectively doubled. They mention 50k because that’s when they just get 50k from the anon benefactor and his/her mission is done.

Remember when halfcoordinated ran Nier at SGDQ 2017 and asked for fanart on the hashtag #Got2BRadical (I might remember this wrong) ? Unfortunately I didn't save but a fraction of those pics but I can assure you they were all great and the twitter feed was full of them.

Yeah, I'm damaged in the same way.


Also loving hell I love Nier: Automata music. I bought the OST even without having played the game myself, that's how much I love it.
