ff 13 is like one of those RPGs clearly made by 1 person who is not a writer, that just spout expository nonsense you don't understand with no context at all nonstop
re: ff
@envgen i say these things not because I am an ff mark, but because i think there's probably actually something in one of the 2 dozen FF games you might enjoy, except for 13 which is a corridor full of exposition which is unfortunately holding a lot of the best art and music hostage
re: ff
@envgen the FF series is kind of an anthology and the title is a meaningless brand name
ff
@envgen i gotta just say final fantasy isn't like most video games, they share thematic elements but most of the games have staggering tone, setting, gameplay, story etc differences and almost none of them are set in the same universe
also ill be interested to see what ff7 remake does with that scene since the handling was pretty good even in the 90s with the english translation which was done in less time than the game takes to play, for less money than the game cost to buy
@jk they're cutting down trees in some parts of london just so 5G will even work
@jk don't worry 5G has a range of 3 feet and cannot penetrate most solids
it has high bandwidth in the sense a 1TB microSD delivered via slingshot does
I want batman to hear about a crime, find that it's just a riddler thing and sigh with relief because at least its deterministic
I call them puzzles for clarity, not as an accurate descriptor of what they are. The riddler does actual puzzles
the joker should just make Sierra adventure game puzzles in real life; which is to say create problems that are hideously contrived and can only be solved in hideously contrived ways, but because he operates in a physical reality the weird contrived nonsense he sets up always kills at least a dozen people
I don't think the joker should ever present coherent reasons for what he does. he shouldn't have a traumatic past or any past at all. I dont think he should strictly even be intentionally criminal. I think the joker should just be someone who continually does things with no clear connective logic or purpose
@jk what about 2mm diameter hamster balls, for moss piglets
doom eternal spoilers, politic
i really appreciate the narrative thread where authority and those subservient to it both excuse industrialised genocide and blame the Doom Guy for it, despite the fact he is trying to stop it, and him trying to stop it has no effect on whether they do it, and they could just not do it.
It's like how in real life when you point out that a politician is murdering people for no reason and a bunch of scum come out the woodowork to tell you well maybe you shouldn't have been so rude to Oldmoney J. Turbohitler it's not his fault that he had to kill all those natives in order to poison their sacred land sucking some inefficient fuel out from under it with a massive dangerous machine
I used to make art for this site.
Helped a little with An Outcry, helping a little with Blanksword.
