Huh. Yknow, thinking about it, that does make more sense than there just being a dude's head under there. edit: Speaking of ol pyramid head, I recently saw my favorite Silent Hill thing ever in insane Diablo clone Silent Hill Book of Memories: I would very much like to play RED PYRAMID'S KART JAM 3000 CJacobs fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Nov 1, 2016 |

Lobok posted:What's the timestamp for that so I don't have to scan through two hours? 1:50:40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GYpUYJStD0&t=6640s Technical nerdery: I actually screwed it up by going just a bit too fast, the game ended up spawning some guys behind me because I was too far ahead. When the gate opens halfway through, a bunch more guys spawn around you. It has to plop them down somewhere that's not in your field of view, but you can see the whole lounge from there. The game assumes you're not all the way at the far end yet, but if you are, it's like "uhhh over here I guess??" That coupled with me accidentally leaving a guy alive (you can see him shooting at me when I go up the escalator) slowed me down quite a bit.

I remember playing the original N on Newgrounds or Addictinggames or similar like ten years ago. I was considering buying N++ for old times' sake, I'm glad to hear from reviews etc that it's good.

Zaphod42 posted:Well, the content is a mixed bag. There' a tooon of levels and they're well designed, but the art is extremely minimalistic (basically comes down to "sometimes the background changes colors"), and there's no story to speak of. I would argue that their super tight focus on gameplay alone is what makes it so good. They didn't bother with story or super flashy visuals because they don't really need it for the game to be a real contender. I'd say that N and games like it are the perfect example of how a video game doesn't need any specific thing to be considered good, it just needs focus.

Zaphod42 posted:I never said lack of story made it unfun or bad, merely that 'its has so much content' isn't the whole story. Good art and story are definitely a part of 'content'. I didn't imply you said that either and I'm not sure where you're getting that from.

The only thing I know about Watch Dogs 2 is that it has a protagonist who is I guess a minority? I think I read that. And there's drones. edit: And that it's gonna fuckin suck, but I have Watch Dogs 1 to back me up on that.

Recalling the amount of people that dropped a tenner (sometimes on shared accounts) to read the dangan ronpa and dangan ronpa 2 lp's will always get a chuckle out of me. They ought to come out with another one of those games so Lowtax can line his pockets with gold once more.

I watch let's plays while I play games that don't require much thought like TF2 or games I've played for a fuckbillion hours like the Dark Souls games. It's good training for splitting my attention while also being entertained!

Jay Rust posted:I can listen to podcasts while playing games like that because that's just audio, I don't know how you're able to watch two things at once though! I've got 2 monitors, so usually I just set whatever I'm watching up on one and the game on the other. With games like TF2 or Dark Souls there's a lot of downtime while you're waiting to respawn or in a loading screen or whatever, so I can use that time to actually watch it. Otherwise I'm just listening.

Doctor Spaceman posted:That doesn't stop lots of cold-war era movies being about nuclear armageddon, or lots of movies in the past decade relying on 9/11-inspired visual imagery. There's a good way and a bad way. You can lean on real-world issues while still maintaining the escapism movies provide, but there's a difference between establishing connections between the movie's events and real-world events, and just having real-world events be in the movie like it's supposed to take place in our real world. That movie with the Twilight guy that turned out to be about 9/11 is what I'd consider to be the ur-example of the bad way.
