Echoes of Aincrad is "What if Dragon's Dogma 2 was mediocre".
The gameplay lacks "sauce" and the prologue dungeon in the demo dragged on for far longer than it should've.- Not to mention normal difficulty might as well be easy.
Haah. I'll just pray the AoT game will be better.
I really hope we stop bringing up the Philippine flag trivia. It's a lot less cool when we're an impotent joke of a state that doesn't even have ballistic missiles or a proper air force.
Please, guys. I'm begging. I'm on my knees.
@Elpeocross@RoseMarieAnon Having both Matchmaking and Community servers solve this problem. Sweats who want to try their hand in the arena get matchmaking. People who just want to vibe while blowing up their friends have community servers.
@LaocoonofTroy@BillSmith164016 Ah. Laocoon's probably talking about "defile" as in like... A gorge. Still - never heard it pronounced as 'DEF-ih-lay". lmao.
Dudes with bad computers used to play Source games at an unstable 15fps on low settings asking their buddies to hop on Counter-Strike or some bullshit Garry’s Mod game mode, now they play bootleg Roblox games and think emulating San Andreas is gonna brick their PC
If you abandon the detached medicalizing language of modernity, you can. It lacks poetry.
Instead of depression, you may have the blues or be plagued by the dark dog or the surplus of black bile, “melancholy”. You may have waded through sorrow and climbed out of the pit of despair.
Instead of anxiety, you can acknowledge the poetry of fear and find that you were gnawed at by premonitions of failure but then found new courage.
The robotic mutation of language dehumanizes our experiences, our struggles.
@Richmond_Lee Surely people will rail against the totalitarian bullshit because the entities that are tyrannizing them aren't giving them a good deal.
SURELY.
. . . Right?
@Richmond_Lee I feel bad for westerners who live in countries that are functional enough to tyrannize their citizens like the UK. All the horrors of a Chinese-style surveillance state without being a pillar of the world economy and cool trains and tech.
That can't be sustained, surely.
@Elpeocross@KinglyPancakes Meanwhile North American Artists during the '10s were raped by the worst deviantart and tumblr art advice that prevented them from actually doing the barebones fundamental art training.
@Elpeocross@KinglyPancakes Chinese artists are doing atelier exercises when they're in Grade School.
The Japanese, too, have a rich artistic history that wasn't destroyed by the CIA during the cold war.
Filipinos are masters at tackling things by eye and by ear, fueled by pure determination.
