Yeah, fuck the Shadows of Yharnam. Those guys are assholes. I never had any chance with them on New Game normal and had to actually summon another player for the first time in any Souls game. But when they finally go down is amazing.

Well, to be clear on that point I'll use the Funhouse as an example. In Dark Souls 1, there is the location Sen's Fortress. At this point in the game the player will have rung both Bells of Awakening to gain access. At this point, after dealing with the horrendous blighttown, the player...

I really want to get into Ghost in the Shell, but there seems to be a lot of different versions? Where would I start? Is each one separate, or should I start with the first one? If so, which one is the first one?

Yes, yes, a hundred times this. I love that gif. So much. It's so delightfully stupid. Sadly, I've never had real access to enough that I could say I've watched any movies, but I've payed attention. Regarding combat differences, I do like how overall, regardless of end quality, each...

Yeah, alright, I'll give you that one. Though the Pokedex entry which you must have read if you caught it, both shows it's typing, Ghost/Steel, and explains that it's a ghost that has possessed a sword in X and in both X and Y explains that it consumes life force. Which I feel is a great...

Well, this is actually the first time I've ever actually made any fuss about this. It's usually done more in good fun nowadays, at least among the groups I tend to lurk amongst. Notice here how these jokes all fall into the same category. The same line or concept simply repeated infinitely...

While watching an LP the other day a lighthearted joke was made about a strange idea/element being a Pokemon. This and the Rooster Teeth Entertainment Station sketch "Everything is a Pokemon" are two examples of one of the most tired jokes I've seen in all my time as a gamer. The idea of Game...

Fuck. This. Asshole. WHO THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO GIVE HIM DOUBLE POWER HIGH DAMAGE FULL PARTY ATTACKS?! OT: Eh, I can see where the disconnect might be coming from, but it's not really that bad. The game really gives you a lot of mechanics to avoid the full party wipes. The...

Sex: Male Gender: Male Sex of Ideal Partner: Female Gender of Ideal Partner: Female S:2 P:6 E:3 C:6 I:7 A:2 L:2 Well, Intelligence and Charisma are absolute musts for interesting conversations and experiences. Perception is important for my partner to be capable of being, well...

Playing Bloodborne right now, and I have to say Vicar Amelia is REALLY overdone in terms of hair. There is so much. Being a Souls game you have to get in close to deal damage, but in doing so you're all but guaranteed to get lost in the ridiculous hair coming off her body as she flails around...

There's a skill I like to call "Cautious Cynicism". Basically instead of swinging wildly between any two extremes of being SUPER HYPED or SUPER ANGRY NEGATIVE, you take a little of both and live in a realistic balance. I've been excited for games that let me down and ones that I'd predicted...

Dedicated crowd control or nuker "Black Mage", dedicated run up and stab "fighter", dedicated backline head popper or big damage dropping "sniper/ranger", and sometimes a dedicated healer "White Mage" though that's more towards number 5-ish if I cant' get one of the above. If I can't get one of...

THANK YOU!! It's one thing to poke fun ala everyone in the world or Yahtzee because it's going to happen anyway, but when you start to really get upset at a cartoony fictional world inhabited by mushroom people and frickin' dino/raptor/dragon things, and that's not even getting into the weird...

Psychic/mind powers just barely beating out necromancy. I love necromancy cause you don't necessarily have to be evil to be one. An honestly good necromancer could be just terrifying if done right. But I've always been partial to the list of psychic powers. Telepathy, telekinesis, mental...
