It's up on YouTube now. He really wants to get it but the goblins (the ones in his head, not the ones in-game) were preventing that.

I think he was sorta close, like he wanted it to be more like an rts but mostly he wasn't seeing things get done. I missed the first half but he wasn't clearing alerts/notifications and that might've helped as new poo poo popping up would've been more obvious. He might be able to defeat this goblin eventually but it's a doozy so maybe not.

He might have more luck when adventurer mode comes out.

They hovered over the Javik recruit mission but spent an hour speculating based on the mission blurb what it could mean + where to go with romances and had to end the stream before going in.


I am joking, however I don't doubt that what I said is partially real.

I think they've done three streams? They spent a lot of time trying to figure out which bits of the codex they've read before and which has new content. The last big thing they did was the Priority: Palaven mission. I'm sure someone will tell Woolie they need to go to Eden Prime next before they do anything else.

I can turn off my brain to the multiverse bs where all the characters that should be super cool job to absolutely nothing villains and just enjoy the cool parts of it. When you put the loving Viola and Luka stuff after the army of bayos and the TripleBayo stuff it just makes me so loving mad.

Viola sucks to play as compared to Bayonetta is what I find the biggest root of everything. A lovely multiverse story without all the DMC5 aping would've been so much better. I'd even bump the game up one whole point if I could replay the Viola sections as Bayonetta after beating the game, because then I'd be interested in 100%ing the game.

It's mildly impressive that after years of people wanting Bayo 3, the biggest reaction I've seen from it are fans going, "okay, yeah, I think I'm good now."

The short of it
Viola's parents are Bayonetta and Luka from the universe that dies in the start of the game. The end of the game is the Bayonetta you've been playing as, and her Luka, sacrificing themselves to save Viola and admitting their love, sharing a kiss.

It just hits extra hard to Gay 9/11 status after how the game builds up to it.

The origin game is such a loving miss. I was kinda excited for it! I played that preview that they put in Bayo 3 and I really like the aesthetics and gameplay! I thought "I'll pay 20 for a full version, I will" But they want loving 60 dollars, and then they showed Cheshire is in it, meaning this is specifically Viola's mom Bayonetta so even if it was like a 30 hour game that escalates that indie look and gameplay super good, I would want to play it less than a 5 hour experience because this storybook is heading somewhere I really don't wanna see.

man, as basic as steam df's visuals are, I still like them way more than rimworld's aesthetic, can barely stomach looking at rimworld for more than a minute. how did pat feel about it?

edit: skimmed around a bit and hopped right to a point where he was like "oh I definitely like rimworld better than dwarf fortress" so I guess that's that. a chat comment made a good point that they were able to more easily handle df after playing rimworld for a long time, so that might be a better way in to df for him.

df is just the most fascinating thing and every few posts is an incredible tale of failure or hilarious catastrophe in the df thread ever since the steam release. it'd be great if he could ever get to that point, but I guess it's not for him.

what gets me is how Platinum basically cheated to put Viola in the driver’s seat. the contrast to Nero is obvious - people weren’t to hot on him at the start either but at least there was never any doubt he was the scrappy upstart to Dante’s seasoned professional, and his stripped-down gameplay matched his inexperience while still being satisfying. Viola sucks to play by most accounts, she’s a pratfalling schmuck outside of combat, and Bayo 3 plays her up by drastically lowering the established protagonists’ competence whenever possible. this does not endear her to the audience very well!
