Considering al the roomate, emotional, and relationship crises that OfflineTV's been having this year I kinda feel like just ducking out of this stuff and letting them sort it out since I wasn't a long time fan or anything. Like, the Fedmyster thing and the recently released DMs.

Yeah it’s incredibly messy but the people continuing to make this an even bigger than what it already is really don’t want to move on from it. People love drama even if it’s at the cost of actual human relationships and dirty laundry being aired out for the entire internet. That goon didn’t hesitate to call pokimane was a terf and I can assure you they didn’t take the 5 minutes to search why on twitter.

Not really, I would say Oblivion was much more novel than Fallout 3.

No no no, you're not allowed to acknowledge anything positive about Fallout 3. It only exists to be held up against god's most perfect games Fallout 1 and New Vegas.

OW was pretty fun for a while, but attack/defense was always a bit miserable as a casual player. Then comps just got tankier and tankier for a while.

Once Brigitte was added, the game literally died. Don’t think people even picked DPS heroes for a long time cuz they didn’t have to. Now role queue is forced on everyone since blizzard gave up on balancing the game correctly

Is it fair to say that Overwatch was made with pro level play in mind first?

Because that can describe a lot of my major problems with the game.

Now that I think about it, TF2 had a level of chaos to its game play that is lacking from Overwatch. Overwatch just feels more sterilized somehow.

Errant Signal put it best. TF2 was more of a hangout game you can dip in and out of. Overwatch requires you have a group ready to go, otherwise your playing with randos and everything that entails.

My point is adding player rankings that can go up and down based on your w/l record was a massive, massive mistake.

As a guy that actually covered overwatch esports for his job for a few years, LMAO NO

Well there was no way I was going to spend six hours watching the whole thing, but I skipped around trying to see if I could figure out the overall tone of it, and the main impression I got was about how offputting this guy’s delivery was.

I’m not even sure I can properly describe it. It’s like a comedian doing an impression of someone who’s just drank twelve cups of coffee in a row. He’s speaking weirdly fast and sometimes putting on a stammering, jittery affect, but it’s just so obviously fake that I can’t even tell if I’m supposed to take it seriously.

Hattie Masters posted:

I'm actually going to complain about this.

If it's six one hour videos, upload it as such. I'm not talking about because of monetisation, or that kinda thing, but because it effects how people are going to want to watch it.

There's no way in hell I'm clicking on a six hour video, even if I'm not meant to watch it in one sitting, especially since the only way I'm getting the information that it isn't designed to be watched that way is from the creator's twitter.

Make it six hour-long videos, put them in a playlist, bam you're done. Maybe this is just me being dyspraxic as gently caress but presenting it as a single video, to me, says "This is one continuative narrative that should be watched in full." Like a book that has chapters has clear delineation, if this is treated by the creator as multiple videoes it should be conveyed to the viewer as the same.

The video has chapters and you can pause and come back to it at any time. Youtube will remember where you left off. don't know why its a problem

I'm really hoping that with the video making the rounds it'll convince some fan translator out there to take a stab at it. I remember the attempt at a translation patch way back in the day that sadly fizzled out, but rom hacking is so much easier today by comparison that hopefully it'd be less of an issue.

Man that would be one hell of a project to take on. Seems like an enourmous amount of text you would have to translate. At least the Snatcher script was translated before slowbeef got the ball rolling on the translation patch.

It is really interesting seeing how even a fairly early dating simulator game had so much thought put into the personality quirks of a huge roster of dateable characters, with events and personality traits you might not even see unless a date goes bad, and effectively wild encounter rates for some of the girl characters.

Yes! Theres just so much stuff in the game. Even the facial animation stuff is wild for the time too.

day 9 also seems to be a decent guy in general. He used to play a lot of sc2, but moved to dota.

He plays dota but I would say he moved more towards card games like hearthstone and magic. I always did like his passion when he entered the dota scene and hosted that one year. It was at odds with the community but I thought he did a good job.

Confession: I've mostly been watching a few replays with day 9 and purge, and purge is absolutely dota focused. While I'm plugging dota streamers, he actually is good at the game to the point where he is really great at explaining it to beginners, and knows the game well enough to give detailed analysis(to the point of 9 hour patch videos). Interestingly he is one of those rare streamers that have more of a low energy chill vibe, so you don't hear him screaming.

I'm living with my girlfriend and she was flummoxed by the tin opener I have. Growing up they had an electric one and she stared at my old-rear end manual one and was like what the gently caress do I do with this? It kind of attaches at the side and not on top like some do and she just sort of blanked until I showed her.

Bean guy made an obnoxious tweet and then got surprised that people responded to it. It's a particularly insufferable sub-genre of Tweeting where someone says something they know will set some people off and then act surprised when it happens.

Like, this is a mild example of it, but it seems designed to get a specific response
