Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."

Don't know where else to post about it but today I learned that the lady from this viral video from ages ago
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgpfSp2t6k

believes she's surrounded by spirit guides and was a slave in a past life, and now gives some sort of spiritual advice to her subscribers. Maybe she's so good at accents because of all the past lives?

It's like when the guy from Newgrounds started a cult about ancient aliens. For some reason it's really fascinating to me.

They were interviewed in a news article that someone found around the time of Jeffrey asking who was ddosing the site. Fella was apparently a well put together software dude, came down with a case of schizophrenia, and refused to take his meds, went completely off the rails, and was at that time, living under a bridge. His parents were very worried for him.
It's all sad, apart from the wacky court filings.

I don't have Dragon's Dogma 2 because I'm broke as gently caress but it looks like Capcom is trying to Mankind Divided it

I can't imagine what it's like to be a game dev pouring your soul out only for some dipshit failson to go "what if we made people pay real money for each fast travel" and get paid more money than you'll make in your life

This isn't true.

Like the DLC isn't good but people are actively lying about how bad it is by saying you need to pay for character customization or fast travel items and it's ??? What is the motivation for this?

the thing that is wild about the microtransactions for DD2 is that they're not anything special! they're all things that can be obtained fairly easily in game.

yes they're loving stupid. no they shouldn't exist.

i suspect this is a mandate from the money people at capcom "MUST HAVE MICROTRANSACTIONS" so the devs just gave a list of super basic dumb things.

sure you can pay $2 to change your characters appearance - or you can just run to the first town and buy it from a vendor

This is every Capcom game made for the past 15 years. DD1 had this poo poo even.

Hell, this is tons of big budget games the past decade. Yakuza has this poo poo too.

It's because the biggest retards on the internet have been culture warring the game for being "woke" the past 2 weeks and so they've been lying about that to find "legitimate" reasons to complain but none of them actually played it yet.

People unironically saying that the FPS being poo poo in town is not worth being mad about because that only happens in town, meanwhile the DLC is unforgivable and if anything Capcom should be raked even harder across the coals for it.


One of those things is a thing that actually effects stuff in the game and the other is the DLC
