That Moment was really good though. I'd say it's a top-3 moment in the LP

 Who murdered Kate Vine? Get your last minute guesses in here before watching the thrilling conclusion to Contradiction. Also maybe get a drink and just sit through me and Guava not realizing what piece of evidence we had to use to contradict Paul with. Game could have made a separate note or something to be a little more clear about it.

Ah shame, you noticed it had been posted twice, and I really didn't want to make the "If I posted this twice... would it mean anything to you?" remark without any real context.

"What's up with Jenks's hat?" I actually have the same type of hat. I don't know if there's a name for the style, I just call them Tilley after the brand I know them from. Heavy canvas construction and a wide brim makes it useful for outdoors stuff like a cowboy hat, but since it doesn't have a hard shell it can deal with all sorts of rough handling. I could see it for stereotypical England weather; I mainly use it as a gardening hat but I've also found it useful for drizzles that don't get up to umbrella standards but demand at least a little concession to keeping the rain off, and it doesn't mind getting wet like some fashion hats I've seen.

Simon vs Jenks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXAEgCi5vtw (Please note that the person who played Simon now goes by the name Huld and uses ve/them pronouns) Huld is also in At Dead of Night. Also, can I suggest the game Strange Horticulture - you play as someone who prescribes plants to people (not sure if salvia divinorum is available) and you get to pet a cat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v69Jp10nLK8

It was boring as hell. Maybe if you like really dull slow quasi chuthulu-ish games and reading a lot. e: I feel bad for making GBS threads on this game, and by extension Lobsters recommendation. It was just too slow for me, with no structure or plot for me to latch on to after two hours of gameplay i just shelved it and never thought about it again.

Since you two kept pondering it: When you saw the scene in the woods, Jenks specifically said afterwards: "I could just ask Ryan or Paul directly about this, but I think I'll bide my time..." That's probably why the game didn't give it to you as its own clue. That ending though.  Man, I hope these people do another. What does Wikipedia have to say on the matter...Possible Sequel posted:While Follin would love to make a sequel, he has not-so-fond memories of the incredibly strenuous effort he put into making the first game. For a sequel to ever come to pass, he would need to amass a suitable budget and pay professionals to do all the tasks he had to learn himself. A potential evolution of the series would be by approaching Amazon TV, thereby turning it from a video game into an interactive TV show. Due to a lack of funding, Follin was forced to invest thousands of pounds of his own money to finish his vision of the game; even then he had to cut many of his story threads. For this reason, according to him, a sequel depends on "whether I make my investment back on this one first." Once the player finishes the game, there is a plea by the developers to contribute to the crowdfunding effort to make the sequel a reality.

Jade Star posted:I was gifted this game and feel bad for accepting it and making someone else spend money on me. It was boring as hell. Yeah. Strange Horitculture is a quiet little riddle game, basically. And while the plot does go somewhere, minor/premise spoiler you are stuck as this pivotal third-party, changing what happens but not being there for much of it.. Which makes the start even slower. Also thanks for all the Contradiction videos! I watched another playthrough of it years ago and ended up buying a copy because it felt like I'd played it. Was surprised how well it held up to a second pass at it.

 You know how I usually go into a mission with a plan, all properly set up with the tools at hand for what I need because I am a smart XCom man and I make everything look easy? Yeah well not this time. Had I possessed a working long term memory I would have remembered the nature of this mission and what tools I should have brought to it. Oh well. I adapt on the fly and can improvise.

This is a mission that's at it's hardest when you first play it, then afterwards you know its tricks and can work around them fairly easily. ...unless a Chosen comes into play. Then things get interesting again. Ironically, for how annoying she is usually, the Assassin is probably the easiest, since she'll just run up and get in your biz before you even have to start dealing with the Chrysallids. Never had it with the Warlock, but I got on the Hunter on this mission once and oh dear lord does he make this mission an absolute bear. See, he does his thing of sniping you across the map from the end there, right? Except he does his grappling dance right behind the drat gate. So after dodging his shots and dealing with the burrowing Chrysallids, you'll probably have to deal with him, the Gatekeeper, and the Chrysallid guards all at once. Hope you didn't burn your once-per-missions getting up there like I foolishly did!

For dealing with Chryssalid's a ranger with the assassin's katana and blademaster should be able to kill them every time they enter bladestorm range.

Looking up IRQL_not_less_or_equal, I see that it can involve any faulty component of the machine i.e. incompatible driver, faulty interaction between different hardware and components, corrupt system files, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRQL_(Windows) It could be the RAM, but there is a procedure to pinpoint the issue: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/bsod-finding-and-fixing-them/1939df35-283f-4830-a4dd-e95ee5d8669d Fire Storm posted:Should we just start sending you parts/MicroCenter gift cards/obscure local root beers? I am not sure about "parts" given that we do not know the specs of his computer, so we might end up sending incompatible or inefficient parts. The latter two things sounds good (though I am unsure if he lives near a MicroCenter). Flair fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Sep 16, 2022 |

Oh you utterly bullshit lucky bastard  . Yeah, they're never going to be used again, because they're all permanently maimed if not in comas, those medbay time to heal estimates are just to make braindead replacement clones so the Commander doesn't feel bad. They'll just shamble along in the Avenger responding to the Commander saying hi with low zombie moans and he'll buy it and never realize those people are going away to a nursing home for the rest of their shortened lives. Though speaking of going away, I'm surprised with all those injuries none of those newbies panicked; did that guy's fear get generated because he suppressed the urge to scream and run so much during the mission seeing anyone else succumb will trigger him?

Re: Tygan going "...Gee, thanks, I guess?" on the Chrysallid corpse: The best reaction to (admittedly off brand) Chrysallid science report comes from the science officer in Xenonauts (A love letter to the original XCOM it's much more 80's themed "NATO and Warsaw Pact put aside their differences because holy poo poo invasion!). You can bring one of the game's oddly buff Chrysallids (called Reapers) back to base alive and the autopsy report is one of the most hilarious pieces of writing in the game as the science officer is NOT HAPPY.
