Funny you should mention, "Hikkiari" once claimed to be one of the localizers for the original Nier and when a bunch of us looked in the credits to disprove this easy lie. He got really pissy. He even brought it up once again like 3-4 years later after we all cut him off (feel free to look it up on his discord, it's probably still there)



lmafo.

Has anyone mentioned the dude who showed up maybe four years ago, claiming to be Id's brother, in his movie server to call him out on all his poo poo? Saying where he really lived, with his parents, no kids.
I was already tuned out by that point so I don't recall.

That's a fair point. Dark Id's lies only really started coming to light when we can piece them all together in hindsight. He was juuuuust charismatic enough that we smoothed them over and believed him until it all came crashing down now.

Erm..Let's not get ahead of ourselves..I don't think most of us believed any of these individual nutty lies outside the daughter dying thing lol.

It's this. Or thought he was just a normal boring vet when he mentioned combat stuff offhand in LP

The fact that id and his fake sock puppet both have matching Tekken 8 avatars makes everything so much funnier to me. An extra layer of cringe.

He's going to puppetmaster and claim it was a social experiment or he's going to triple down and make up stuff about slowbeef and how his righteous anger at being slandered made the cancer go into remission which will make the rubes clap and cheer.

There used to be a guy in the webcomic threads who would just doxx people at random if you pissed him off and he was just kept around because this site used to be even stupider than it is now.

the star citizen thread has it's own culture and is mostly posted in by people who have never looked anywhere else on the site and it's led to multiple blowups when one of them does something bad and gets hit and the regulars don't 'get' it. Like when HopperUK probed someone there for being a TERF and riled them all up lol.

Playing an Ironman in Runescape (the modern one..I'm loving twisted) and Necromancy is cool as hell. Glad Ironman sections you off from all the awful p2w and microtransactions poo poo. OSRS is better tho but it's still fun.

Saw this posted on reddit lol


> Like honestly, it makes a event in retrospect feel like the real him breaking through. I woke up one morning to find disarray as one long term member had discussed feeling suicidal and his post was to tell them how to correctly position the gun. Lots of WTF from people, the poster left, and he claimed it was the angry depressed girlfriend of his dead daughter who posted it in the account he left logged on. According to him it was something he said to her dad before his failed suicide that he had to mercy kill.

its when you signpost things like climbable walls with yellow paint splatters

signposting in games is always done but yellow paint tends to rub people the wrong way for whatever reason.

For me it just looks bad a lot of the time. Like the tarps in Dying Light never bugged me because they felt like they made sense within the context of the game. Yellow paint being on random mountain sides in the middle of nowhere on each individual climbing rock just looks dumb.

Basically, signposting is good and desirable but yellow paint is a very low effort way of doing it.

What if you love yellow paint but hate disabled gamers...?

Multiple Horizon devs talking about how the inscrutable Japanese hate disabled gamers because of Elden Ring ftw.

My favorite was the article that said no quest log makes the game inaccessible to the "intellectually challenged" lol.

the thing is i get that some people, because of taste, will see a game that's like "go wherever you want" and get kind of overwhelmed in an unenjoyable way but i don't know how you get from there to "the Japanese hate disabled people"

It's their mind on ubisoft checklist slop. the Souls games were big but Elden Ring was WAY bigger so I think it made a bunch of other people who never played the other games take a look and when they only play Far Cry and Modern AssCreed...well....It probably looks insanely impossible lol

Ibram Gaunt
Jul 22, 2009

Also people think there to be some sort of moral wrongness to a game having any sort of friction or difficulty. Like the infamous Sekiro article that generated the cheated yourself etc phrase. I don't think anyone gives a poo poo really that the guy used cheat engine to go slo mo to win...But like why did he need to write an article acting like it was some failing of the game that he *had* to resort to that lol.

I tried the Ubisoft Avatar game while I still had ubi+ and it was extremely pretty but so soulless and bland that I got bored after 2 hours. Such a stark difference to exploring in TW3 or Elden Ring etc lol

It's frustrating because there *are* accessibility issues that could be easily sorted out and disabilities that can be easily accommodated and this stupid poo poo just dilutes the issue

cdpr made a digital gwent tcg and it wasnt very noteworthy but in the beta the spy cards worked how they did in witcher 3 and that didnt last long lol

I rather liked the standalone Gwent but they like completely reworked how the game and cards work on a fundamental level multiple times so everytime I'd come back it'd be completely different so I stopped playing lol.
