Oxyclean posted:It definitely felt like Pat was over-complicating the rotation explanation in regards to "how many buttons do you press in a cycle" or whatever. That's because Woolie needs over-complication to enjoy things (see Arkham Asylum, which he completely botched all understanding of the combat even though it's dead simple and explicitly designed to make being batman feel as easy as breathing).

Lovely Joe Stalin posted:The thing that always made me laugh about the LP forum was that the Yogscast were goons, and their channel was the biggest thing in the UK for a long time, but it was largely ignored. I always assumed that's because they were hugely successful goons who weren't part of that sub's community. To an extent I imagine it was also because they were mostly just goofing off in Minecraft and the such, not playing relatively structured games with defined endpoints.

As a counterpoint, I actually quite enjoyed the Onimusha playthrough so far. Sure he's getting things wrong, but it's not the way it was with Batman. He isn't getting angry or frustrated in a serious way, he and Reggie are still joking and enjoying themselves as they struggle with the camera and controls. Possibly it's because he went in expecting jank, compared to Arkham where he was expecting polish.

The point of that DLC is in fact that there’s no superpower. The guy is intensely scared and in pain and the scientist is an amoral monster for doing what he’s done. The guy learnt Binary clicks as a form of communication, that does not make plugging him into a computer to control Geth a good idea. The fact his brother thought it could make him a super computer is intended as the brother making the exact tropey misunderstanding, and in doing so torturing someone he’s supposed to love and protect.

Captain Invictus posted:oh okay, I'm only halfway through watching it so he's only just gotten to the part where it's outright saying he's autistic and a supergenius etc, good to see that they're explicitly and blatantly wrong on that I might be misremembering stuff, and the brother is intended to be smart. But the scientist who stuffed him in a computer is indeed pretty clearly grossly wrong and misunderstanding to do so. So it might still have the super genius autistic trope, but it’s presenting the interpretation as pretty misguided as treating this like a superpower instead of as a person with a different life experience and needs.

Honestly the Matrix discussion was at least less obnoxious than hearing Pat talk about how much he wants the royal family of England to all die and his childlike glee at the Queen potentially dying soon. That was straight up ghoulish and he even recognised it as such before doing it.

I admittedly also have a hard time separating her from my mental image of a cute old grandma/great-grandma visually so like I get it in terms of the royal family sucking but also I’m pretty sure you don’t have to talk about weird fantasies of them all dying at the same time in a yacht accident.

Ryaomon posted:bootlicker spotted Cool, I’d have the same reaction for just about anyone having weird mass murder fantasies about anyone. I don’t particularly enjoy hearing weird murder fantasies how is that bootlicking. I don’t even particularly like most of the royal family, I just think Pat’s royal family thing is really creepy whenever he talks about it. Frankly I’m pretty sure they won’t be my royal family much longer, as I suspect Australia will get an upswing of anti-royal sentiment when the Queen dies and I’m not opposed to that. Provided we don’t end up in the situation America has.

Dias posted:I dunno what Pat said specifically but it's just that this discourse veers close to QCS concern trolling when someone says "god I wish this right-wing fucker died"' on an Enemy Forum. Dude got hyperbolic over way less important poo poo in the past too, let's be honest, hehe. If it was I hope the Queen dies soon I’d be way less annoyed because like, sure whatever. The analogy is more like I want this right wing fucker to die in this specific way and also his brothers sisters sons daughters cats dog fish and maybe their hamsters too, in this specific scenario that makes me super happy to imagine. Which Pat directly said. Thankfully Woolie’s half of the conversation was a much more funny scenario of the Royal family fighting over the crown Game of Thrones style.

It’s not tone policing to say I found it uncomfortable to hear Pat’s weird fantasy of death by drowning for the entire royal family (which includes children last I checked). He literally admitted it was Ghoulish the way he was acting and I wasn’t enjoying his half of the discussion because it was weird and creepy to me. Notably Woolie’s Game of Thrones infighting thing was much funnier because it was like, an actual joke instead of whatever Pat was doing.

AShamefulDisplay posted:AOS isn't getting cancelled but they have vague plans for bringing back Warhammer Classic. The plans aren't vague at all, they're making Warhammer Fantasy The Old World. It's set 200 years before the End Times, and we know they're including both Kislev and Cathay in the initial army lists/books. The only vague thing is the release date, other than that they've been relatively clear about the plans they've made for it.

beep by grandpa posted:For whatever reason I really dig Pat having a desk and sitting much closer to the camera with his hands free. Not that I had any sort of problem with his setup previously but the new setup just comes across as much more engaged and down to earth. I like it and hope it stays once they get moved in proper. Pat outright has said on the podcast he massively prefers a monitor to a TV for gaming based solely on the ability to read and engage with the screen space after doing it to start his move.

Shinji2015 posted:If there's going to be meta-defining modifiers that are locked beind a paywall or X amount of hours (like, it unlocks after a hundred hours or so), then it's a valid concern. If you can unlock them ASAP or with little effort, then it shouldn't be an issue. Yes, via a battle pass style system. Current implication is the battle pass levels will have free rewards and paid rewards, and you can earn free rewards for well free, and then when you purchase it you get all the paid rewards you would have earned to your current level.

Even in universe the Genophage wasn't meant to be used. The Salarians designed it as a threat to convince the Krogan to participate in peace talks. The Turians are the ones who decided to use it immediately instead of merely having it as a detterent. Furthermore, the actual numbers the Salarians calculated are wrong, because they completely fail to account for the cultural effects it created (probably because the Salarians didn't intend for it to be used in the first place). The design is meant to make it so that the Krogan have a 1 to 1 birth/death ratio. Which doesn't work if no Krogans want to have children. That's why they're dying out, the "sustainable" birthrate enforced by the Genophage isn't sustainable at all. For the record, the decision to use the Genophage is the exact same logic that leads to the Turians attacking Humanity in the First Contact War.

If you just want to watch him react to how bad it is, tough poo poo I must admit, the idea that Woolie is "for the good of the stream" is fascinating, because my experience is that he's stubborn enough to do everything he can backwards regardless of what the stream is asking for.

Vandar posted:Yeah. It's even worse. It's written terribly but the actual end result is like, fine. Bayo 3 Bayo and Luka went to hell and now work for Madama Butterfly as enforcers. Every other dead Bayo and Jeanne was reborn alongside their universes because Singularity's multiversal fate control got broken (they don't die in that fight they're just removed from the fight as Singularity is forced to undo the universal collapse to escape them it specifically uses the glitching that shows when realities are overlapping). Viola stays in Bayo 3's universe instead of her own because she's from the Alphaverse which is the only universe to not be restored (because it is where Singularity is from, also Dark Adam and Dark Eve so I guess that's one other actual dead dead Bayo). Bayo 1 Bayo and Bayo 2 Bayo return to their own universes via Ginnungagap including having the particle effects using it causes. It's presented loving awfully, but the actual "ideas/beats" are relatively fine. It just needed an actual writer/editor to make it flow properly and explain itself better.

I can't believe he didn't pay attention to chat's explanations I did not say straightforward or comprehensible, I also said it's fair that he wasn't interested in the explanation (both read the codex, and what the chat was trying to say or point out) because the ending is bad and he'd clearly checked out part way through the final boss. It's just not "that bad" is all, although only if you care to investigate the ending and there's no reason to do that because the initial presentation is indeed, the worst part.

Oxxidation posted:to my understanding you’re primed to dislike the ending anyway because Bayonetta 3 is just one long series of Bayonetta failing to accomplish anything and getting her rear end kicked, which is tedious at the best of times and completely antithetical to the character The Bayo you play as is constantly kicking rear end, but yes this is part of the issue. It's every other Bayo that gets killed by an attack from behind, and the ending barely resolves that by vaguely hinting (but not confirming, and honestly it's a huge stretch) it may have in fact been part of the plan to get them all in one place to gently caress up Singularity. Who is absorbing them for his plan. The game's writing is like, easily the worst in the series. It's just not nearly as bad at the end as people are doomposting about is all.

As I understand it 2 in particular is where a lot of the sentiment comes from, since Bayonetta fights hell itself to get Jeanne back due to emotions of love.Arc Hammer posted:I've never played a Bayonetta game and yet I always just assumed that she was a gay icon. Seemed like it just came as a package deal with everything about her design and personality. She's pretty explicitly a dominatrix in terms of design and personality. It's just her closest on screen relationship is with Jeanne her vergil figure who is also well, a dominatrix (theoretically). UP AND ADAM posted:It probably stems from her extensive interactions and back and forth dialogue with Jeanne as opposed to when she's teasing Luka it's less directed at him specifically but also teasing and titillating the player This, basically. It does not help that the entire thing is written like poo poo, and the pairing is unpopular. If the game had writing quality of say, Wonderful 101, it might not have gone down nearly as badly with fans (although nothing was gonna save the BayuLuka relationship from fan discontent no matter how it was written). The story kind of shits on everyone all over the place it's an absolute mess even if individual moments or ideas could theoretically be cool in a better written game.
