  • A Mind You Do NOT Want To Read

    Oh, that's right, it's Eiken!


    God, and to think I had almost forgotten what little I'd seen of that horrendous melonfest...

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    I read a (very) little bit of the original manga several years ago.


    it was....well I dunno. that screenshot really tells you all you need to know. It has gargantuan tits and gargantuan tit-based humor. Elsewise it's pretty generic from what little I remember.

  • A Mind You Do NOT Want To Read

    Took a quick glance at the Wikipedia article for Eiken and... it has an official English dub. FFS.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    and yet Nichijou doesn't.


    what sort of world do we live in.

    A Mind You Do NOT Want To Read

    There's sort of an explanation for Nichijou - unfortunately, Bandai Entertainment decided to stop all new releases before they could include Nichijou in their catalog, and no other company (American or otherwise) seems interested in publishing dubbed DVDs or Blu-Rays. And the anime's rather poor sales back in Japan aren't helping at all.

  • One foot in front of the other, every day.

    Noimporta hits it exactly. For Senran Kagura, the fanservice is the main draw of the series, has always been, always will be. The creator even said one of the reasons he was excited about having the powerful Vita to work with was so that not only could their be great Jiggle physics in the breasts, but also in the butts.


    The fact that the combat is pretty fun is the bonus.



    That really sucks, because SC2 was an absolutely fantastic game on its own merits. You could remodel and reskin the entire thing with unrelated characters and environments, and it would still be outstanding. The controls were smooth, there was a lot of move diversity and its combos were constructed in such a pick-and-choose manner that it was a fighting game appropriate for beginners and experienced players alike. 


    Like I said, I enjoyed a significant amount of the fanservice in SC2. But the gameplay kept me coming back, and if I have an overriding need for fanservice, the internet is for porn. 

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    I was talking about a game completely unrelated to Soul Calibur.


    Also



    I like at least that they are honest about it, unlike Eidos, who wanted to make a Ryona fetish game and disguised it as Tomb Raider so it would sell.



    ...really? Have you even played the game?

  • One foot in front of the other, every day.

    In that case, disregard, cocks, ect. 

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    More, in relation to his Tomb Raider hate, it's a good game, given bad publicity. End of story.

  • edited 2013-03-06 00:10:49

    I really want that game. And I have to say, why does everyone keep referencing to Lara getting her ass kicked as some kind of fetish deal? 

    Because after playing Tomb Raider and knowing Lara for about fifteen years, the new take on her was more shocking than anything.
     
    e: shocking in an 'interesting' way, not shocking in an "interesting" way.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Fanservice, objectification, etc, etc. 


    So! Let's talk about something that doesn't make people uncomfortable!


    Does anyone know when Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix is set to release? Or has it already, or...

  • There is love everywhere, I already know

    JP release date is March 14th. Nothing for anywhere else at the moment.

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    They have said Fall 2013 for everywhere else.

  • Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto!

    Might list my semi-blind thoughts on Tomb Raider as I play the PC version tomorrow. Might make a thread.

  • I told you a hundred times Seibah, I don't want you in my pool

    The new sim city is pretty sad. The four themes it promised turned out to be four themed buildings. The cities are too small to really do anything since within a few minutes you're already hurting for space. Game is also way too easy since you seem to get infinite residential demand no matter what you do.

  • "I will grant you two wishes; one for each testicle."

    ^ and shitty ea microtransactions for that game yaaaay


    isnt being money vampired fun

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    I'm thinking of doing a livestream of me sequence-breaking Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance on the 23rd.


    * emulator (because it's easier to deal with messing up and getting SB tricks done); savestates will be used liberally (as this is a demonstration run, not a challenge run)


    * will NOT show off spellbook combos


    * will probably not hit level 50 (and show that last shop)


    * will attempt to fill bestiary


    * will probably not aim for 100% items, depending on how lucky I am with item drops, because it just takes too long


    * will get and place all furniture


    * will show all three endings


    * will not show Maxim mode or Boss Rush mode


    * spoilers will be discussed freely (because sequence will be broken)


    Anyone who wants to watch have a time preference?  My time zone at that point will be Eastern Daylight Time, which is GMT-4.

  • But you never had any to begin with.

    will NOT show off spellbook combos



    But Bible + Magic is hilariously broken!

    I just finished a Spacechem level with reactants weird enough that I had to pull out linear algebra to balance it.


     


    The next one involves creating L-DOPA.  From the histogram, a vanishingly small handful of people have solved it at all.

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Is Spacechem anything like real chem?


     


    Anyway, between now and Sunday, Gamestop is offering -25% when buying three pre-owned games.


    I could pick up the following two games and try to pull another one out of thin air somewhere (maybe FFT:tLW or CvDXC for PSP):
    * Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (PSP) for $19.99
    * Endless Ocean (Wii) for $12.99


    Note that I don't own a PSP or a Wii (though I do have access to a Wii currently, and for the foreseeable future).


    Is this a good idea?

    SpaceChem definitely resembles real chemistry. It's basically a puzzle game about using nuclear reactors to mix chemicals, and it involves real-world elements and everything.


    Man, I really ought to start playing it again.

  • edited 2013-03-08 16:20:38

    I think I'm going to go pick up a copy of Tomb Raider today.
     
    slime edit: I got it.

    Spacechem resembles chemistry about as much as Tomb Raider resembles history.  It's just a framing device, albeit one they did a respectable amount of research on (well, other than the whole Thor-in-Greece business) and it adds considerably to the game's setting and how the play comes off.


    Like, most of the compounds you work with are real things, and a lot of the assignments (turn these inputs into these outputs) are based around actual chemical processes, and the people who submit puzzles to Research Net tend to follow suit.


    But mostly it's just a vehicle for programming puzzles, and it's in no way treated as a strict limiting factor.  I mean, most actual chemists would raise an eyebrow at the creation of polycyclic hydrocarbons from single atoms, but...


  • "you duck spawn, refined creature, you try to be cynical, yokel, but all that comes out of it is that you're a dunce!!!!! you duck plug!"

    Recently finished Dragon Age. Felt kind of... underwhelming. I made a couple of decisions that I soon found poorly thought out. Nah, not in the sense of gameplay, like spending XP on useless skills. It was, like, you know, several of my choices concerning romance/Landsmeet/Archdaemon left me with an impression that my character didn't really make the best decision. Hmph, and I didn't expect I'd engage myself emotionally in this game.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    It'd be unexpected if you ever found yourself making all the right choices on your first playthrough.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    what's a programming puzzle?

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    if that's a joke, I don't get it.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    what's a programming puzzle?



    It's a puzzle where you set up a solution, then run it to see if it works. Might not be explaining it well.

  • yea i make potions if ya know what i mean

    Either you're not or I'm dense. Because that seems to me to be the uh, opposite of a puzzle.
