Started ff15 for the about the 5th time and this time I will definitely get past chapter 3

I hate to say it but the Stand By Me part at the beginning is still my favorite part of that game. It stays charming for most of the runtime though. Wish the combat was better.

Keep in mind that "most incompetently run tabletop gaming company" is a very tight race, and it says a lot that Catalyst might have a slight lead on the competition there.

"Massively squandered" is the right descriptor. Like, I would say out of the two big cyberpunk games out there, Shadowrun has been the stronger seller for years before the recent uptick in interest for Cyberpunk. And some of that was definitely because it's "Cyberpunk, but with familiar D&D magic and races" but some of that was also that Cyberpunk as a brand was basically in stasis for years and years after Mike Pondsmith stepped back from the industry to work at Microsoft. He was so flat broke they couldn't even afford real art for Cyberpunk v3 and resorted to dressing Barbie dolls up to take pictures of:



And then work starts on the CDPR game, a new Cyberpunk game edition, etc. and meanwhile Shadowrun released the worst edition of their game yet in response.

So tl;dr, Shadowrun's marketing sense peaked at the 1990 "game trailer"

the thing i dont get about climate doom guys is if you seriously think modern international society is coming to an end within like, 5-10 years, and there's nothing you can do about it, why are you posting on the internet 24/7 all day instead of like, idk. save up for a year, sell the inessentials, and go traveling. get a cat and spoil the hell out of it. get really into trains. anything that you might not be able to do once we're living the madmax water wars? like once the apocalypse happens you can just walk outside and look around if you want to be mad about the climate.

climate change seems Not Good but the way these guys handle themselves seems way more about performing their anxiety publicly or absolving themselves of any responsibilities in their life than whats actually happening. see: dude in that sad thread's op talkin about how his girlfriend is always yelling at him and he just sits on his computer all day until he literally passes out at it

n also those guys' family members' kids are probably going to have a better life because they probably wont become cspam posters

i think spreading the misery is part of the whole thing. I saw this in some of the Covid threads. You can tell some people were really getting off on spreading despair. Some of them probably just want people to feel as bad as they do, others literally get a little bit of frisson if they think they're scaring people.

the mass shooting thread is also a disaster because a) its a "mass shooting megathread" in The Funny Politics Forum and b) like half the thread is against gun control because they might need guns for an armed revolution, so all that gets posted is blaming every mass shooting on capitalism



thankfully they're IKing it after someone got banned for lolling at mass shooting victims at a bank or something

loving insane

the whole thing was streamed live, you could see the crowd crush happening and hear people, it was awful

grim detail: the Apple iMusic live streaming platform pretty much caused it


it's the huge horizontal barrier making the third wall that trapped people trying to head away from the stage (orange is where ppl died)

its p. hosed how nobody at livenation or apple was ever held accountable for that

also how drake came out like 90 minutes after 6-7 fatalities were already confirmed, did a 20 minute set to close out the show, and then went to dave & busters with travis afterwards
