@lvrejishoulei Hey, I'm having an issue where Kaeshi Namikiri's physical animation doesn't play? The VFX go off just fine, but my character just stops dead. It's not a mod conflict, I've tried it with no other mods active.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

Okay, where the fuck was #FromSoftware hiding character writers this good?

I'm two endings into #ArmoredCoreVI now, and this is the first time a Fromsoft game has made me cry. Actual, literal tears. How could you do this to me.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

@_ADWills It's even worse when you want to write, you know what to write, and you know how to write it...but the words just won't happen. Your brain sticks, rusted in place, and every push just does nothing.

That's been most of my summer and it was awful.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

A character saying "I will speak to you in the language you understand!" as they go sicko mode is cool and evocative, if not very original.

Adding "Violence!" to the end implies you think your entire audience are illiterate cretins. We got it, thanks. You didn't need to clarify.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

Okay, so there's a bunch of more substantive reasons to criticise Rammattra, but I'm feeling petty today so that's what you're getting.

A specific one of his Ult quotes is fucking dumb and I hate it because it's so close to being genuinely cool.

It's so surreal seeing a bunch of people flip their shit over broadly positive reviews for a game, specifically because they're less than a 10/10. Like, guys, 7/10 reviews aren't going to hurt the Zelda IP, calm the fuck down.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

The non-fighting part is a little redundant for me, I've never properly gotten into one, but other genres? Can do, chief.

@indibundraws ...the genocidal chewing gum? Really? That's the hill some people will die on?

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

@atmu706 You say that, but then I give the same answer to both questions.

God, I wanna show this off again, absolutely phenomenal work by Shy.

Personalities 100% on display~ 💖

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

@atmu706 Also normalise holding developers accountable for using a shitty, exploitative model, even if they aren't quite so overbearingly hostile about it as others.

Relatively benign shit is still shit.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

That said, glad I played it now as part of the Legendary Edition and not the unfinished mess it was on launch. That would probably have given me a very different impression.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

Just finally got around to finishing #MassEffectLegendaryEdition , and you know what? Mass Effect 3 fucking slaps. The ending is stupid as all hell, we all know that, but everything before the Catalyst opens its stupid mouth is solid gold.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

Well, everything in the ending up to that point at least. There were flaws in the rest of the game, but overall I'm very satisfied. It had the lowest lows of the series, but also the highest highs. And the gameplay is flat out the best in the series, no contest.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

@The_Eggroller God, I despise people who do this. Sure assholes, ruin the roulette for everyone else because you're scared of running content rather than a digital sleeping aid.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

@sytokun Oh boy I sure do love it when media makes civil rights activists the bad guys by also making them murdery. Totally not aggravating and suspect.

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

Even giving as much benefit of the doubt as I'm able, and not assuming it's intentionally fucked, it's such a weak attempt at nuance.

"Oh no! This character who's obviously right has been written to do a bunch of murders so we don't have to admit it! What moral complexity!"

[Manic Dogma @YourManicDogma]

God, literally the White Fang 2: Electric boogaloo. I was complaining about this shit just last week lol, and lo here is Blizzard, eager to deliver the next monument to moral cowardice.
