woah hold on AVGN was good

Bless James for keeping this character for as long as it has while still putting out bangers. The worst thing I can say about his weaker videos is that I was entertained by them.

I think the absence of transmog can be a cool decision. For many years Monster Hunter had absolutely no transmog and as a result, there was an additional meta game to creating attractive armor sets that stood out from the crowd while still meeting the needs of high rank fights.

Yeah, that's absolutely fair. In games like that they tend to act a lot like trophies as much as a protective piece of gear. In games where you get gear and want to keep to a certain fantasy it absolutely should have a transmog system. Rise of the Ronin you can make a wide variety of outfits that work well within the setting.

the best way to rewatch AVGN is through niconicodouga uploads where roughly translated japanese flies across screen like every time rolfe lands an ASSSS and the screen fills with WWWWW and AAAASSSSSSS

It's also the case that most endgame gear looks like rear end, dragged straight from a 12 year olds sketchbook.

James, fundamentally, sold out. There are a lot of reasons he did it, including a chronically ill child that he had to provide for. But when a bunch of friends are making stuff for fun until it becomes a business for one of them, you're going to have conflict behind the scenes.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

He lists his notable critics and haters on twitter as being directly responsible for his death. Including ones who criticised his podcast more than they ever criticised his actions that just came out, thinking of Evan Dorkin here.

I'm trying very hard here to resist making tasteless jokes, but the only response I would have when someone told me I was responsible for a shithead killing himself, it would be something like

I wasnt expecting "I have Numerological proof that a demon incursion collapsed the Baltimore bridge" exactly, but I feel Im still probably right
