They also straight up do the cult thing where they program you to believe the cult is the best thing in your life, the only path to success, and anybody who speaks negatively about it or tries to get you out isn't actually doing it because they're worried about you: they're doing it because they're actively trying to prevent you from succeeding out of spite/jealousy/etc and you need to cut them out of your life.

Like, yea, 'not buying our scam? What are you, SCARED OF WINNING????' is super common but usually when confronted those scams focus on small scale success stories like 'this single mother of four paid off her medical debt AND her kids' college with this scam' and just quietly ignore the negatives, which keeps the same 'look what you COULD do with this scam' vibe. It's weird to see one go from aggro 'what are you some kinda money pussy????' to 'aw gee why are you mad at me I'm just a lil guy with glasses, I'm just tryin to make friends here come on buddy'.

Veridis Joe talks about the so-called critiques of a more recent cartoon that's gotten caught in the dumb online culture war: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA8lOZpCyyM I haven't watched this show myself so I won't comment on it, but I knew when I saw the promotional poster years ago that the reactionary crowd would have opinions on it. I do wonder though if a lot less people would be mad at this show's existence if it wasn't a Crunchyroll Original™. It also sucks to hear that the studio working on this was given a much lower budget compared to what animation studios in the U.S. usually get.

There is something hilarious about not only there being a term for people disappearing into the night with investment money in bitcoin but it also being both normalized and even to a degree encouraged and expected (because after all it could never happen to ME, the average very smart bitcoin buyer, right).

Iirc the whole production situation around HGS was kind of fucky. Like there was, what, one trailer and then it more or less immediately went into cold storage for years? And I think a couple people who worked on it were like “yeah the shows been done for a while but Crunchyroll isn’t returning our calls”

I'm not going to say much about HGS because I don't have much interest in it but I did get recommended the OP credits theme and it made me laugh with the  on display with lyrics and singing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHNGYLE1o8Y

Pants Donkey posted:From what I heard, people thought that the money used to fund the show was money that could have been used to get the rights to [YOUR FAVORITE ANIME HERE] so people were going to be dead against regardless, but I think the money was earmarked for an original series so it going to anything else was never possible. Throw in LGBT stuff and yeah. They made a big deal of diversity amongst the show staff and it was 100% white women.

Seconded, that vid was great. I loved the little clip of one streamer getting good RNG for a dumb feather and going "THIS IS THE RUN BOYS". Speedrunning is fascinating to me and trying to do it with such a brutal game is like catnip  .

Speedrunning is fascinating to me and trying to do it with such a brutal game is like catnip To me speedrunning almost has this Lovecraftian horror element of watching the players and their obsession gradually transform "having fun playing the game really well" into a process that barely resembles playing the game at all, all while becoming increasingly despondent over smaller and smaller mistakes. It's like: Day 1: "Oh neat, I found a shortcut that lets me not bother using this spell at all if I have the cookie, that'll save me a few minutes Day 800: "I TYPED <F3><F3>PICKBUCKETFROMSHELF INSTEAD OF <F3>PICKPAILFROMWALL AND HAVE LOST THREE FRAMES OF LIFE, I MUST RESTART, ALL IS LOST!" I am still baffled in the KQ1 speedrun why they'd save once their speedruns got into absurdly short territory. egg tats posted:make sure you don't sleep on this guys kings quest 3 video. this might be the worst speedrun I've ever heard of

stillvisions posted:I'm not sure I ever made it past turning the wizard into a cat, and I'm okay with that now that I've seen how brutal that game is for missing one thing and not knowing until later. Watching the SMB1 speedrun slowly evolve over the last few years into needing to execute perfect inputs across all 17,700 frames, like some kind of human TAS, has been pretty wild.
