Unperson_47 posted:The worst thing about DS2 is that it doesn't have cloud saves on PC and I've lost my save after doing nearly everything in the game twice now. Yes I know skill issue, git gud, etc. At least it means I get to play it again. It makes me glad that I have been seeing more people talking about SGF on the forums, he may be my favorite SA alumnus I love a dry, unflappable and even-keeled LPer, they are a rare breed. Manages to not be an obnoxious clown while also often being pretty funny He also often showcases some really interesting things.

Took a chance on this young lady's video because Sabine Hassenfelder doesn't pass my vibe check. I was worried it would be a Quinton-esque dredge, but it turned out to be just an autism awareness advocate really digging deep on a topic she's passionate about. A promising small channel IMO. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaZZiX0veFY

Nuebot posted:Things Dark Souls 2 invented that no other souls game did or would do after it, according to internet people: Multiple enemies attacking you, enemies tracking you, enemies grabbing you, fighting the same or similar boss more than once, fighting multiple bosses at once, fighting a big guy in armour, enemies that are dudes in armour, having empty rooms with nothing in them, having enemies hiding around corners to ambush you, having a lame fight with a dragon who's main thing is just that it breathes fire that kills you with absurd amounts of damage if you get caught in it, areas with poison and instant death status effects. It's also great that a lot of the above make the game harder, but I guess the wrong kind of harder, yet it doesn't matter because people also complain DS2 is too easy. (Except for Scholar, which instead gets unfairly maligned as being chockablock with bullshit, rather than just making 2-3 really dumb changes.) Neddy Seagoon posted:They patched in the original FMV's. Did they do all of them? I was under the impression it was only the message from Atrus at the start of the game.

Annointed posted:I beat Dark Souls 2 with mouse and keyboard. I've beaten the whole run of 'em that way. That doing so is some arduous, hardcore feat is another fascinating myth. People treat beating the games with literal pieces of fruit as more sensible.

It's incredibly cool that they immortalized it as a PVP hotspot by adding two NPC invaders there in Scholar.

I love this guy's videos, they're just fun scale videos of mostly fictional stuff. this time he's done spaceships, but from the perspective of being on the ground and having them fly by. after a certain point it gets a bit hard to quantify the scale from the ground, perhaps they should have added some Birds For Scale. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw6qppma02s&hd=1 I also love how more than a few of their videos end with Gurren Lagann, simply due to the ridiculous nature of that series.

Sabine has been giving off "my qualifications make me an expert in everything" for a while. It's nice to see a knowledgeable take down.

I one initiated a duel, then used Chameleon to turn into a cow statue and hid by the entrance, fully expecting to be found in under 10 seconds.. Guy spent half an hour looking for me. He finally timed out and sent me hate mail.

I've always thought these things should drop in a few more real world equivalents - how do they measure up compared to our own cars, planes and ships, and at what point are they actually as big as Manhattan or London or France or the Moon. This is a very cool way of representing it but it would be nice to contextualise them more so I can go "does this work as a car, or a battleship, or a floating city, or the centre of galactic civilization?"

victoria raechel talks about the European Hamster. I love that classic BBC documentary video of one visiting a graveyard that she uses footage from. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A-kuthb3eQ&hd=1 I did not know until this video though, that the European Hamster has become critically endangered and could go extinct within the next few decades. that...that sucks so much.

I've been watching some TF2 videos lately and I just got recommended my own video lol(well, it's of my emails into Idle Thumbs, but collected by someone else into a single video) so I'm gonna post it for anyone who hasn't experienced it yet. The Steam Hat Economy, with Captain Invictus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF52sL2wi1c&hd=1 it truly was an insane time. it also saved me from losing my home when my mom was in serious medical peril and I was pouring every dollar I made into both paying the mortgage of her house and her medical bills. I have long been out of it but I can only imagine things have calmed down slightly in some aspects, while gone completely off the rails in others since then. I'm guessing they've fixed a lot of loopholes since I don't get nearly as many friend requests from scammers on my steam account these days. It helped me out a lot, but it also wound up leading to me helping out a ton of goons as well, including one who happened to get one of the Golden Frying Pans and I sold for thousands of dollars for him. also I just noticed after all this time that they spelled it "ecomony", which, perfect.

The final form of gurren-lagann, which is larger than the observable universe, works mostly as a large van for a group of friends.

Hey thanks for this. Helped me a lot on sorting through the Takes that have been circulating online around this kinda thing. I have some neurodiverse ppl in my life and so I had been hearing a lot of this around, but hadn't ever seen anyone concretely talk through the problems in the most recent backlash to the growing neurodiversity movement.
