I mean yeah, obviously Justin and Griffin don't have a trademark on creating horrible characters, but it's awfully suspicious that out of sheer coincidence two other prominent gaming sites are suddenly rushing to say "Hey guys look at our totally original ugly characters!"

Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?
I'm towards the end of the Crystal Kingdom arc now--it's been good on the whole, but I've noticed a definite uptick in Travis realizing that being a Fighter is kind of crap, and you can definitely see the spots where Griffin planned things out a little *too* much and gets sort of railroady.

Speaking of Travis, I finally caught a bit of MBMBaM TV, and it made me realize that while I associate everyone else's normal voice with their actual appearance, Travis's natural voice is so Magnus-y that I've always kind of thought of him as actually being Magnus, kind of like when actors appear in movies as themselves.

They do seem to be the most similar to one another. IIRC Magnus is also afraid of spiders, for one

No, but my cat will come into the room when I'm listening to TAZ or MBMBaM. He gets confused and scared when they start laughing real hard, but then goes to sleep when they go back to talking normal. This cat also liked to try and attack the gamepad when I used to play Destiny. So I trust his judgement in media.

The gorilla texture using the troll model is great. They're eventually going to break something fundamental (again) and wind up in a state where the game just flat out does not work anymore even after a fresh install.

Feb 10, 2009




I like how there's mods persisting across 'versions' already. Literally the first set of mods broke the game so hard a 'clean reinstall' didn't fully work. By version 5.0 they're going to be on another planet.

I wonder if Nick likes the game that Todd has fully intentionally programmed for him.

The title and article content have both changed since I first saw it. Previously it was something like "How ugly can you make your Mass Effect character?" But oh well.

Frankly I'm surprised it hasn't crashed a bunch of times already. My modded install was incredibly finicky even when I was meticulous about load order.

Mods still being there after a clean install is probably because they didn't get all the folders the mods affect, or some of the weird .ini files Skyrim modding fucks with.

I thought Skyrim used the Steam Workshop for mod distribution. I've never modded Skyrim, granted, but with other similar things you can unsubscribe from the mod and it automatically uninstalls/reverts changes.
