I don't feel it's worth getting upset or worked up over april fools jokes, sometimes they're decent, sometimes they're stupid but result in a goofy actual manifested product, most of the time they're garbage. it's fine!

Duke Huggem, a game 13 years in the making, made by Mega64. Vinny played it and I feel this is a very important clip for everyone to see.

what were the sales numbers for FF7R on the EGS and steam combined? gotta be a lot, right? I tried looking for numbers but got wildly varying results from different places. if it was millions of copies then I don't know if squeenix shareholders would want to wait to get that bag unless sony ponied up an insane amount for extended exclusivity.

Huh, didn't know he was doing that. I'm not hungry for podcasts about star wars or tabletop game sessions so I haven't checked those out (I'm sure they're good, just not what I'd want) but covering a book series sounds good to this gamer.
their podcast watching through The Clone Wars TV show is super fun, I highly recommend it. Most of them go in blind(iirc Austin had watched some of the show when it originally aired but thats it) and the digging into the behind the scenes of the show is fascinating.

I'm sure it's good, it's more that I don't watch much tv these days and with those kinds of podcasts I know I'll get way more out of them if I'm familiar with the specifics of what they're talking about. Maybe some day if I ever sit down to watch it!

CharlieFoxtrot posted:

I've never watched an episode of the clone wars show and have enjoyed the podcast a lot
yeah that's the thing, they both give a rundown of what the episode was about and then talk about the theming and characters and stuff, include audio clips occasionally when relevant, mention things to look up if you absolutely need to see what something looks like visually, etc. I'd never even seen the show beyond screenshots until I watched a clip they talked about during one episode, and it was entirely possible to follow the podcast regardless.

I did not know what Kit Fisto looked like until multiple seasons in when they had a discussion about how weirdly horny the show was for that guy

is there hot new drama in the VTsphere?!
there was what went down with Selen Tatsuki/Dokibird in February. it's a fascinating situation, an incredibly abusive company, rather than just let an employee leave amicably, fired her and then repeatedly committed multiple smear campaigns, harassment, PR-destroying and outright illegal public gaffes day after day. this resulted in their stock value tanking and losing like a quarter billion dollars in value between february 6th and now:


Selen is back as Dokibird and streaming all sorts of things now that she's not under a corporate overlord. it's hilarious that if they had let her leave normally she would have probably gotten like 100-200k subs after redebuting as dokibird, but instead thanks to the incredibly viral drama surrounding her termination, she's at nearly 700k and getting like 1k subscribers every day or two and will probably hit a million subscribers by the end of the year. she's also gotten multiple sponsorships with major companies like EA, HYTE, and some as-yet unnamed sponsors, and has reclaimed her Selen Tatsuki intro and fan name(Dragoons) because lol her Selen intro was public domain. absolute Andy Dufresne situation, crawled through a river of poo poo and came out clean on the other side.

Pomu Rainpuff also left nijisanji and is back as her original persona, Mint Fantome, and she's streaming whatever she wants, too. she bought a Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater Pachislot Machine because she is an insane MGS fangirl and played it on stream. turns out even if it doesn't cost any money, it's still not a good game!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfTgzbCblOU&t=160s
she's also played Zoombinis and Facade, which both percolated some memories that had been dormant for so many years for me. man, remember Facade, the original "AI" game?

*rocks back and forth in chair, glances off towards the horizon* I remember that day, so long ago, when I turned the dial off for the last time. 'twas the airing of the 13th episode of breaking bad, and it was a good one I reckon, but as the sun set on that day, so too did my desire to ever watch the teevee again.

this reminds me of the discussion PatStaresAt had where he revealed that he literally can't recall voices in his head of other people in anything but his own voice. So all of his memories are all his own voice speaking other people's words. every single one.

Magic the Gathering Roguelike sounds like a fun concept that'd probably work with the right dev
not exactly what you're after but you should definitely check out Shandalar. Open world birds eye view MTG game made by microprose, five wizards one for each color are trying to take control of the world. Go around slaughtering their minions(each with unique decks, health totals, cards that start on the field and sometimes in-game rules), go to towns to buy new cards, get quests to get loot/cards/health upgrades/etc, and find dungeons that have the most powerful cards in the game in them(the power nine, demonic tutor, mishra's workshop, etc). After you kill the five wizards you get to fight against a planeswalker.

One of my all-time favorites. It plays using old magic rules since it only has the first like four sets in it, but it's a shockingly well put together game. Just loving remake it wotc!!!!!!

ff6 isn't even a game that "needs" a remake

actually FF7 wasn't a game that "needed" a remake either, but for some reason they don't want to do what the game actually needed, which is re-release the original game with a non-broken translation, and the direction they went with the remake was cool because it wasn't actually a remake
yeah but considering the quality of remake and rebirth I wanna see them try their hand at adapting ff6. I want to see Sabin suplex that train in full glorious 3D. I want Kefka to rip the world apart in HD. The Opera Scene but with the mechanics of the honeybee inn/parade in FF7R/R2. Wandering through a forest only to find some trees you walked by were the legs of massive Brachiosaurs. Zozo with the detail of FF7R2 Kalm. Walking around Vector and Narshe. the Correct Chunky Moogle Design instead of the Koala Freaks.

anyways I'm just waiting to see how long it takes from the moment FF7R2 gets released on PC to someone modding the entire game to have the Fort Condor models of the characters instead of their normal versions
