@envgen iirc the 3DO had no specialised sprite hardware like every console, so it really struggled with sprites. it also had no specialised 3D hardware. it was just every wrong decision you can make

@envgen I like the 3DO because Panasonic thought it would be cool to make an expensive console which was difficult to develop for properly and had masses of near-unavoidable input latency at a time where 60FPS and 0 latency at all was very common in console games

@Nine the rerelease of doom64 adds content explicitly linking it to 2016 and eternal

@body@mastodon.social like floppotron but you play it instead of scripting it

@body@mastodon.social what if an instrument made entirely of stepper motors

@Nine doom 64 is quite good with a healthy amount of F6 spamming

fantasy writers with conlangs or fake words that still use sounds common in imperial languages aren't allowed to use mid-word apostrophes. it serves no purpose and makes your bullshit worse to say

all of the made up words in ff13 are annoying and they say them non-stop

Show thread

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

re: politic, fascist irony guys 

@body@mastodon.social because fascists hate visible weakness and ergo apply them to all of their perceived enemies

disordered eating, food 

@body@mastodon.social I learned recently that blood sugar effectively functions as a willpower gauge. if you run out it's very difficult to make considered actions. this is how certain fighting game pros do well by fucking around until their opponent flubs out and ragequits

5G exists so mobile companies can tell their shareholders that the numbers are much higher now. The numbers are so much bigger, guys. thats why you should give us money so we can waste it

@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
