I think it's more that it was over explained
I dunno, i didn't mind it but i could see his point.

Is the Spoilercast a downer overall?
I need a significantly less emotionally draining game to play now that I've finished Fata Morgana and I don't know what that is yet.
It was over explained because it took alot of fancy footwork to make it all make sense in context of the game. I loved the sequence and enjoyed the explanation, but it was too much all at once tbh. It does work, but you get an hour long lecture on the mechanics. Sometimes you just want it all to just work, but that plot device being a magic maguffin would have probably upset people more than the lecture.

Yep
Rule of cinema. Present something in a manner that is clear to the viewer.
Like...take usual suspects. Guy drops coffee mug. We see the name "Kobayashi" on the mug. We get snippets of what Kevin Spaceys character said imposed over the case photos. Thats it. We dont get the detective telling us over 20 text boxes what happened and why it happened.
Persona 5 is a bad story.

Yeah I actually enjoyed the explanation too personally. Maybe you could have somehow cut 5 minutes but like you said I can picture the backlash otherwise.

I want a PUBG map with insane weather
like can't see past a few feet in a thunderstorm and you get lightning storms that murder you if you go outside so you have to run house to house. kinda like these
There rarely is rain in the current map, and its hard to hear shit so it legit changes the dynamics of how you shoot or move. I like it alot. I can do for thunder and heavy fog/rain

I played like S;G 0, Night in the Woods, both Niers and Fata Morgana in like a relatively short time period together.
You can throw in The Last Guardian from last year too I guess.
I still kinda want more?
Maybe I'll go replay Persona 3 Fes.

I hope Beast in the East and Vinny Castlevania takes like a year or two break and we can see some Shenmue action again.
I completely forgot about Shenmue. Agreed, that takes priority.

Legend has it that Vinny is still hung over
Well, you have to make it halfway through FES to get to the real depressing bits and out of the rest you've played, I'd say Fata is by far the most emotionally draining. I did pick up Root Letter and Danganronpa Reload recently so I might play those...or play the Vita version of S;G...but tbh Fata Morgana drained me.
It's by far the best VN I've experienced and I will go hard for Steins;Gate.

Anyone here played OneShot? Because holy shit I just finished it and what a beautiful, magical little masterpiece that game is. Wow.
I'm mostly trying to figure out how to get rid of straight edge dudes.
Why do you want to play Shemue 3 if you don't want to play Shenmue 2

What if I don't want to have an idea on what the new hires are like man.

Cos' that's what The Man wants you to do man.

Happy America day Americans. Don't blow yourself up.
It's good to see the Influencers at GB still got it.

I'm just wondering if it's impossible to hire someone in the video game industry who doesn't like wrestling.
What's up with that?

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if Dan was into Anime instead of Wrestling.
And I shudder.

"doesn't like wrestling"
- appeared on that Wrestling podcast everyone, EVERYONE, is glad doesn't exist anymore
- poured thousands of hours (and maybe even some money?) into that garbo mobile game

Stockholme syndrome isn't the same as liking something.
I don't think it works and it kind of cheats.
You can't suddenly turn on the unreliable narrator and then immediately turn it off again when you've done your twist.
Moreover the death fake out doesn't really take the story anywhere it wasn't already going. Akechi is obviously a narc. Sae is obviously coming around on the Phantom Thieves the more of the story she hears. The whole fake death and aha we knew all along seems like a shocking moment for the sake of it. Plus it's especially bizarre when later it works against the game trying to redeem Akechi.

Man, Mad Max was a good game was it? Really enjoyed my time with it.
Very good. It felt like a Whiskey Media stream.

Yakuza is what shenmue wishes it were. The Shenmue ER was entertaining but BitE is miles better.

I dunno. We don't have Dan singing in a Kermit voice and Vinny playing guitar on BitE yet.

For as many crazy wrestling moments there are in Yakuza 0, pissed off Kiryu just straight up socking Kuze in the face is the hypest moment in the game so far.
