Lemon proved my earlier point.

PC gaming is garbage.
Console elitism is justified.

Normal, like a normal person, except for inverted Y axis for flying.
normal people don't normally tilt the back of their heads to the right if they want to look to the right

60fps is still objectively better though.
It can't be objectively better. What if I'm making a movie that's set in the '70s?
Should I film it in 60 frames? Really?

30 frames would be objectively better in that context.

Intrinsically, neither is better than the other. The only thing you can say is that 60 is a "greater" number than 30.
Which is arbitrary. They're just numbers.

Metaphysically speaking, there is no such thing as "bad voice acting", or "bad acting" in general.
As such, complaints about a game's voice acting are always moot. Find better things to complain about.

The most vital aspects of a game are as follows:
Gameplay > Story > Lasting appeal > Music >>>>> Graphics > Everything else

60fps is in NO WAY BETTER than 30fps.

People who care if a game runs at 60fps are stupid.

A game's frame rate should be smooth and consistent--nothing more.

Games should always be played with the default settings on your first playthrough.
If the default settings suck, this harms the game.

A bad game doesn't automatically become good just because you have the option to block/remove the bad parts.
(Maybe not controversial, but when people tell me to just "shut the feature off" if I don't like it, that's not a real solution)
(If a feature is bad, it shouldn't be in the game, period)

All games are interactive movies.

FPS is the country music of video game genres.

Very popular. Very bad.
And the people who like it are often very loud and VERY stupid.

And once you've played one, you've basically played them all.

Halo is garbage.
95% of all FPS games are garbage.

Women are sexually objectified too often in video games.
Oversexualization (or sexual exploitation) is a thing, and feminism is the solution.

Portal is an FPS.

I can now apparently add "inverted controls are okay" to this list, too.

Mods ruin games.

Dark Souls is bad.

i mean, i have a metric fuckton of others, but that's probably the most controversial one

along with, "it's possible to dislike Dark Souls for reasons unrelated to its difficulty"

as stupid as naruto is, i saw an episode on TV a long time ago where shikamaru and temari fought each other
and it was pretty cool, actually

shikamaru's supposed to have a mad genius level IQ, apparently, so his battle plan was pretty clever and interesting to watch

« on: July 26, 2015, 10:31:59 AM »
i really despise our culture's infatuation with tattoos

i would never get one
i mean, it's to the point where people have been asking me, "when are you gonna get a tattoo?"

no, not "ARE you gonna get a tattoo"

"WHEN are you gonna get a tattoo"

it's like... fuck you, never
why would i want to have an ugly-ass picture on my skin that i can't rub off, and hurts when i get it?...

That usually shuts them up.

how the fuck should i know

east or southeast, if i had to wager a guess
Where does the sun rise in relation to your window? Where does it set?
That should give you a good estimation if you know.
oh yeah

i was right then--east

In R&C, some of enemies will fraternize with each other if you leave them be, which can be clearly seen if you zoom in with the pulse rifle. Sometimes they'll even play rock-paper-scissors.

The Flood / Re: How closely does your avatar represent you?
« on: July 26, 2015, 10:00:24 AM »
My first one was me, so, you can't get much more representative than that.

My current one is an album cover by my favorite musical project, and it's stylistically similar to my last avatar, so...
Yeah.

I like to make sure my avatars are perfect for who I am. Probably why I've had so few.

Any G-man sightings yet?
Not yet! I'll keep my eye out. I probably missed him a few times already, 'cause I haven't been looking, really. Forgot he was a thing.

this forum post explains it pretty well for me

"Look you gotta look at it like the analog stick is your head and neck.  When you want to look up in real life you lean your head and neck back, just like pulling the stick back.  When you want to look down you tilt your head and neck forward, like pushing the stick forward."

but like i said, i don't invert my up/down axis--just my left/right axis
it just feels right to me

Oh, and I only do it for third-person games. Forgot to mention that.

Gaming / How do you set your camera controls?...
« on: July 25, 2015, 11:46:10 PM »
i think the way i set up my camera controls is kinda weird

when i tilt the stick to the right, i like the camera to turn left
but when i tilt the stick up, i want the camera to turn up with it

so, inverted on one axis, but normal on the other axis

i don't know what the general norm is, and it intrigues me
