I like to make the song Cool Kids be the anthem for people who hate things to be cool

"I wish that I could be like the cool kids
Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in
I wish that I could be like the cool kids
Like the cool kids"

One part of me tells me I should regret skipping the Devolver conference.
Don't regret it. While the opening 15-20 minutes was....... interesting. The rest was pretty annoying in my opinion. I do appreciate the fact that it didn't take itself seriously. Kind of a breath of fresh air after the rigid conferences that E3 is known for.

It depends on who that character is and how much I care about them.

I can't really compare with an indie title, so I'll go with this. You know how I was joking about FE characters in the Switch version of a Soul Calibur game (if another one ever happens, lol)? I'd strongly consider buying it if one of those guest fighters was Robin. And I suck at any traditional fighter that isn't Pokkén!

I bet a lot of people felt similarly about Link in SC2, actually...


Ah, Twitch chat. So desperate to be the cool kids that they try to exclude anyone they can to make themselves look high and mighty.
I understand where you're coming from, but Robin and especially Link ain't no supporting character from one indie title. One of them is one of the foremost icons in gaming. Apples and oranges, really.

Though I agree in principle it's a matter of personal worth.

Different people watching the stream and watching the trailer maybe? At least what I saw in the chat, it just felt like most people had a huge dislike for Nintendo and not that it was another version of Skyrim.
Are you sure though?

I gotta unlock more stuff in Tekken 7. I really want the Blue hit effect for Jin. Especially since I made his TAG 1 costume.

Though I'm happy with the Tekken 4 Hoodie in red and orange. Looks almost like how I made it in Tekken 5 back in the day.

While the comments didn't specify whether it was because of Skyrim or Nintendo, the negativity started when the Switch logo appeared and got worse when the Zelda content was shown.

There wasn't much negativity for anything else Bethesda did, not even the mention of purchasing mods with credits. So, I felt like it wasn't because people were unhappy with Bethesda but they just really didn't like anything to do with Nintendo.

That's awfully sad.

You'd be surprised at the number of Nintendo haters. Jealous. It's really quite sad.

Again, I don't think that is a warp. It is a normal trait you see on screwed back covers.
I also notice my right Joy Con is slightly wonky than left Joy-Con. But I think that is just some slight variations when comes to the Joy-Con slid rails. I can always get new sets of Joy-Cons if they start to wear out. Remember, Joy Con's do wear out since you slide them in to the metal rail.
Perhaps you're right, and it's not a warp at all. The screw simply wasn't tightened on the upper side of the system. This may apply to the back side as well. But not every unit they ship is going to be perfect, so of course, some units will vary by appearance. Just like I mentioned before, as long as there are no further complications caused by this manufacturing variation, such as the system overheating while in the Dock, there should be no problem with my system. It's not like I notice it at a glance, anyways.

Yeah, that's true as well-- it's pretty apparent that the rails on the Joy-Con will wear over time because you slide them in and out of the system. If you have backup Joy-Con in case they wear out, then that's cool. I went for the Neon Blue Joy-Con (L) and Neon Red Joy-Con (R) with the system, and another pair of controllers with the opposite colors.

Though I initially was planning to use Neon Red on both controllers, I'm actually finding myself use the default blue and red configuration a lot more. There's something striking about it.

Remember that Nintendo is literally Satan for some people unless they release Metroid, F-Zero, Mother 3, Melee HD, etc.

Inb4 it happens on Tuesday.

The Last Night is a game which says that if everyone on the planet had a stable income, there'd be no creativity

I'm blacklisting the game off of my mind because of how utterly ridiculous that is. Source is the Steam page
That goes against literally all of history.

Big booms in art and technology occur when the population of a country has enough resources to survive without constantly working.

For art and technology to be possible you need.

  • All basic human needs met
  • Adequate resources
  • Free time
Why does this man think creativity doesn't happen if everyone had a stable income? Is he saying that the stable income would be so low it would hamper creativity (which is understandable I guess)? Is he saying people would get complacent (which is wrong)?

What kind of political commentary is this man trying to make?

Just the usual stuff.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS IS CRAP

NO BODY WANTS THIS

EDIT: I guess the chat only had certain kinds of people. The upload of the conference is filled with negativity directed to Bethesda. No one in the comments seems to have liked it.

I have no ****ing idea, but apparently the game's lead tweeted about being pro gamergate and ****, so it's likely something like 'making games with contradictory messages to own sjws' or something if that's the case. The Steam page claims that the game shows how society has lost a creative drive.
Oh, and didn't one character in the trailer have a second class income according to the trailer? Contradicts the main premise.

The Zelder Scrolls officially happened today. Don't ever forget this.

Bethesda was dead ****ing serious about supporting the Switch, and they delivered in a means they have never done in such a scale.

I guarantee we will be hearing more of Ninty x Beth.

EDIT: Look at this though.

B-E-A-Utiful.

I mean, not that I agree with some of the crazier fans. But F-Zero hasn't had a game in about 12 years or so right? And it fills a perfect niche of it's own but it isn't brought back because they can't think of some gimmick to attach instead of doing what worked before and slapping on a solid online experience.

Metroid will likely turn around one of these days. So I'm not worried about that too much.

Yeah, maybe it's just me, but sticking with the Scorpio would have been fine I think.

I guess it's neat that you can abbreviate X-BOX One X as X.B.O.X. If you care about that kind of stuff.

What do you think the Slim version of the Xbox One X would be called? :troll:

If that your qualifications of a bad parent then...wow.

Parents can be loving and great and still be frustrated and even find the actions of their kids dumb or stupid and maybe even call them that.

Not that I should have to explain that since the tweet is just a joke anyways.

The only way I can see that line of logic working is this.

Art is suffering.
Being poor is suffering.
Therefore art can't exist without poor people.

It's terrible logic because it's taking a metaphor at face value while also saying that correlation=causation, but I can see how someone who doesn't know how things work might think that.


Either that or the guy's an idiot, which, based on what others have said, is more than likely the case.

They didn't start that way. People turned into flustered baboons at reveal. They're now calmed down and getting out of their expectations cocoon and accepting that its a thing instead of being quietly upset that TES 6 is a no show again.

Hold on.

This sounds too stupid.

You either didn't read for **** or purposely left stuff out.

Humans first knew the era of survival. Then they knew the era of work. Now they live in the era of leisure. Machines have surpassed human labour not only in strength, but in precision, intellect, and creativity. Stabilised by universal income, people struggle to find their calling or identity, and define themselves by what they consume, rather than what they create.

The Last Night immerses you in the everyday life of Charlie, a second-class citizen living in a city brimming with augmentation and citizens living a gamified existence -- none of which Charlie can experience himself due to a childhood accident. Apathetic and disheartened by the seemingly pointless world around him, Charlie is presented with an opportunity to take matters into his own hands. But at what risk?
It wasn't the income that caused the lack of creativity.

Gosh darn it, now the premise makes sense.

Rider Gwen, instead of getting everything wrong, just post the whole thing next time.

Yeah it's like everyone who hated it but liked everything else was in that chat but have disappeared elsewhere. Honestly those comments are the opposite of what was in the chat.

I guess it's also different people commenting on the Bethesda conference after it happened rather than during. Even in the Skyrim Switch trailer, there's people giving praise to Bethesda for stuff other than the Switch port. Go to the conference video, nothing but complaints.

Some Gameplay of Blade Strangers.

Game looks like it'll be poverty (that doesn't mean it'll be bad, Melty Blood is poverty, and that game is good).

Wish I knew these characters.

I feel like the developers made this hype thing and I can't understand any of it.
