Wasn't he the guy that went around yell at people that gave bad reviews to games he did VA work in, even if that game sucked through no fault of his own?

I used to watch the let's play videos he makes with Nolan North and that's exactly how I'd describe him. Maybe I'd leave out the "a little bit".

This is demonstrably incorrect, Jobst talked about it at length in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_jcpig-C2s

e: and he leaves it up to you whether you want to keep watching his stuff or not, so whatever choice anyone makes is of course fine. I'm just pointing out that Karl Jobst has actually addressed the issue head on publicly.

Sounds like any semi-legitimate excuse not to watch videos about speedrunning would be a massive advantage for pretty much anybody.

I enjoy this one on the basis that it is funny to imagine this is how gordon behaves normally at work, just flying around the test chamber wiggling side to side like a weird eel.

And also the reason he is half an hour late to work is deliberate because clearly he does not need to be if he does not want to be.

There's one named rwhitegoose who is all in on anti-Semitism and poo poo, plenty of screenshots of him talking about The Jewish Question, for example, and Jobst continues to support him, collaborate with him and not say a single word about it when asked.

Yeah just learned about that guy when I looked up Jobst. I was talking about Tomatoanus, who cut ties in September and said people have a responsibility to learn who they're really friends with/platform.

Weird that this is the only criticism of Schrier's, who did a lot of reporting Naughty Dog's abusive work culture and crunch, that Baker took offense too.

He also quit twitter because he retweeted a transphobic joke, and warned us that adding female characters to games might tokenize them and actually make sexism worse!!!

Arent't they all printed by the same house or something? It'd make sense. They can't be a huge profit center so there's probably just an easy template for them all.

so the bad art designed to cause disgust has to be on purpose right? Possibly to single us out when they start putting no-coiners in camps?

Anecdote: I've had a couple of NFT groups reach out to me asking if the sub I mod wants to "partner" with them on an NFT launch, and it's always this exact type of art, almost as if it were made in a Picrew or something. I've yet to ever seen anyone launch an NFT that wasn't along those lines. Like, I get that it's a scam, but the degree to which it's obvious and people refuse to believe just... Gets to me somehow.

I have a couple old books like that, if you're lining them up cover to cover just flip it

when you pull it out take off the cover, put it on with the cover right side up, and be able to read upside down

Why is a speed running video an hour long? You could beat the game slowly in less time than that.

there's recordings of actual speedruns and then analyses of speedruns, their development, etc. summoning salt's videos are mostly the latter so you've got lots of different individual speedruns compared and presented in a pleasing narrative.

You're not wrong, but "30 for 30 for speedrunning" is a hilarious phrase.

All of Summoning Salt's videos are great, IMO. The Matt Turk one was just what I linked because it's so immediately digestible and accessible: "how the gently caress do we as a community collectively beat Matt Turk." It's the purest distillation of how Summoning Salt sets up progressions, and it's exciting to see it develop. The other video that's really like that is that one with the two guys repeatedly hoarding and blasting each other out of the water with mario kart 64 records but that's kinda depressing so I didn't link it.

Maybe I'm a weirdo but I almost always put a book down based on where I am in the book. If I'm in the first third of the book, I'll put it down on its front cover. If I'm in the last third, I'll put it down on its back cover. Just to keep the cover from curling too much I guess? I'm very conscious about maintaining my paperbacks' covers, especially if they're ones whose art I like.

Capsule-shaped is isomorphic to a sphere. That's the great thing about gender. There's no one right way to be a man. You can be any kind of man you want (unless you have one or more holes)
