The Flood / Re: Bad Luck?
« on: January 29, 2018, 08:47:52 PM »
It's not so bad nowadays, mostly because my perspective has changed, but I still get weirdly unlucky quite often. I'll have a few weeks of pretty decent luck, but then all of a sudden I'll get a string of bad things happening one after the other. I then spend another couple of weeks recovering from that, only for the cycle to continue. It'd be humourous if I didn't fuck ME over.
I try to maintain a more positive outlook, but god damn is it hard sometimes.

Yeah, it is. I've come to expect bad luck at all times, so when it hits me, I'm prepared, but when it misses me, I'm baseline. The key is to expect the universe to want you to not succeed, and then use that as fuel for your conviction to succeed in spite of those efforts. Easier said than done, though.

HA. Yeah, I had really bad luck in highschool. To the point where all my friends, whenever they had some bad luck, would jokingly say something like "Damn, the Snakeluck is affecting me now."

i will play this stupid thing, but on one condition

does the game have ANY appeal whatsoever outside of shock value, or the fact that it has twists in the plot

you are only eligible to answer this question if you do not tend to enjoy japanese or japanese-inspired media

it's only five hours or so, you don't really have much to lose

heard the dev had to put in a title screen warning because people were killing themselves over this. never played it, but it kind of cheapens shit imo

Nah, not really. All it says is "Not suitable for young or easily disturbed viewers." Considering it has that anime aesthetic, my first thought was that the game had some weird-hentai sexual content.

if that were the case it would have had an all characters are 18+ message.

well i dont think most people would think that much about it tbh

Great game. This is the kind of shit I want to see more of. The writing was top-notch and goes miles for pulling you into the game.

Apart from the first "hook" moment that we all know of, the coolest moment for me was
Spoiler
near the end, when Monika guesses your "real" name. I used the name "Reginald" for my playthrough, and I completely forgot I named my computer after myself, so when she correctly used my name instead of Reginald, I was so fucked up.

literally nobody hates amy schumer for her gender

i would love for there to be good female comedians in the mainstream, but there just aren't any

silverman is funny in a quirky sort of way

her acting career is trash tho

Who?

A famous actress who allegedly used to molest her little sister when she was a kid.
You have no high ground lol, you're allegedly a serial rapist

Spoiler
I hope everyone here has learned an important lesson about the uselessness of "alleged" claims

What's your problem

She's been accused of molestation, that's a fact. Whether she actually did it or not is irrelevant to what I said.
The fact that someone asked who she is, and you immediately identified her as the person who a baseless claim was made against, is indicative that you believe the claim and see it as inseparable to her character. You didn't mention her work as a comedian or actress, just the she-said accusation against her.

It's no different than you getting brought up somewhere, and the first thing I say about you is how you're allegedly a serial rapist. I can hide behind the wording of the description ("he was accused of serial raping, that's a fact"), but it doesn't change the duplicitous and misleading nature of it.

well considering its a loaf thread i felt compelled to mention the allegations.

but yeah youre right. i apologise.

but when someone accuses another of sexually abusing them would you rather we believe them until proven wrong or ignore them until evidence surfaces that supports them

personally the former sounds like the right choice to me with harsh penalties for people who are crying wolf

Just don't play it lol.

God of war was never good, going a different direction with the gameplay is fine.
I enjoy interactive movies and I enjoy gameplay focused games.

If you think we're lacking on the second style you haven't been paying attention to the indie scene.

because the indie scene is almost as bad in different ways.

video games just suck right now. they have for awhile.
What games have you been enjoying lately? That are more recent games.

i dont really play games anymore (because of this sort of thing). if i do its guilty pleasure stuff. the last good game i played was BOTW
Seems a bit picky to me. But hey, do you. Have you heard of Divinity Original Sin? The sequel came out recently. It's great. If you're into stuff like Baldur's Gate.

im not that picky. video games are not cheap and 9/10 of my last purchases were just not worth the investment.

Steam sales my dude. If you buy a game for $2 and it sucks it's not a terrible investment. PS4 has been pretty good to me with their sales.

nothing from the last 5 years is ever 2 dollars.

Uh, yeah.

i own most games worth owning beyond that so your post doesnt help me. we're talking about new ish games.

I meant to say that I've gotten plenty of games released in the past three years for under $5 on the PS4. I'm sure steam is doing better than that.

Flash sales are where it's at my guy.

You gotta sift through the shit but there are some gems in there.

yeah, i guess im just not willing to sift through endless bullshit to find one or two enjoyable ways to waste time. there are more productive things i feel i could be doing than risking my time being wasted on a game theres no guarantee ill like.

i dont know if this is a conscious choice by schemmel or if sabat directed him that way but good god man. imagine thinking we're in the good era of voice dubbing and this sort of thing still happens. hugely unprofessional.

and i wouldn't even care if schemmel's british accent wasn't so painfully awful to begin with
This is my main problem with it tbh https://youtu.be/BTCz7VRh1CQ?t=5m49s

Sean's always changed his voice to match the Super Saiyan form, so if he does "elitist" as he describes it and it's not just British I might be more accepting of it https://twitter.com/SeanSchemmel/status/954935274471006208

yeah but hes saying that british = elitist, not just that its an "elitist sounding accent"

tbh why care about the pompous accent that Rose Black is gonna get? i feel like it fits him, a lot, actually.

because it doesnt make any sense why base black would talk normally, and rose would talk with an accent. make them match, or dont do it at all. and then he justifies it using retarded head canon like "turning into rose brings him closer to being zamasu"

on top of it being an annoying, it creates an inconsistency amongst fans. even in the age of good dubbing, funimation is still pulling dumb shit like this

Tbh this basically ruins the Goku Black Arc for me. Might just wait for the Bluray and watch the sub with the BD corrections.

Guy (in response to Schemmel's justification): That isn't what happens, though. Rosé occurs because Goku Black is Zamasu, not because "more of his power channels through him." It doesn't make sense for him to suddenly get an accent when he transforms.

Schemmel: So I guess we are wrong and you are right. We're changing it instantly. #artisticlicense

Ajay: Yes, you are wrong. You are dubbing an existing show, you don't get "artistic license." This isn't the 90's Mr. Hope Of The Universe.

"Wait. Only have MOST of my mind transferred over."

"Hang on. When I then use a transformation based on Son Goku's Saiyan body, bring the rest of me over."
