Video Games General

Do you play as a dude or a chick?

 

Ah, not too familiar with the cast beyond the protag meido being perpeptually broke and the protag witch being a habitual borrower.

 

There is, IIRC, a single male character in the games.

He is a cloud.

 

Two. You forgot Rinnosuke

Protag is a miko, not maid

 

I did specify games.

 

Yeah, he's in one of the manga series but he hasn't appeared in an official game.

 

There's a difference between Miko and Meido?

 

Meido is the Japanese pronunciation for maid. Weebs use it instead of maid a lot of the time. Miko is shrine maiden, or priestess.

 

Anything in the PlayStation Summer Sale worth buying?

I'm kind of thinking about getting The Outer Wilds, not sure about what else.

 

What is your preferred genre and what is for sale?

 

Digimon Survive is coming out on Switch, right? Because I would think that it would have the game on the Switch Store by now.

 

Action/Adventure, Rpg's/Jrpg's, Not certain what Ace Combat counts as, Some shooters (Pretty burned out on CoD or Battlefield) for example.

Surprisingly little, if this their big summer sale.

The Outer Wilds, Warhammer Chaosbane, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Final Fantasy VIII Remastered, Final Fantasy VII, and Dishonored Definitive Edition to name a few.

 

It's supposed to, yeah. They just haven't put it in any of the stores yet even as preorders.

 

I thought it was. ...Shame about not being able to preorder it.

 

Beat Stray.

Spoiler: Actual Spoiler for ending

I don't mind the sad ending for B12, but the reason is, well... obviously written by someone that doesn't know how computers work? I mean, I could understand if he explained it as a counter-virus due to him cracking into the systems, but 'I don't have enough power' doesn't really make much sense.

Also: while the ones on the surface are dying, I feel like the Eldritch Horror in the sewers will still pose a problem later.

Just need... probably go for the Can't Cat-ch Me achievement first, supposed to be the hardest. Then I'll work on the others. Well, except No More Lives, probably just let them kill me every time I fail to get the first achievement and get it quick enough. Territory's just a matter of using the collectible guide, Pacifist may be a giant pain, of course, I Am Speed will probably be a nuisance- probably try to do Pacifist while I'm doing that, actually. And of course, save Productive Day for last.

 

Some sad news, David Warner the voice of Jon Irenicus from Baulder's Gate 2, along with Ra's al Gul in Batman: TAS, Sarec/Dillinger/The MCP in TRON, and other acting roles from stage to screen has died from cancer related illness.



Here's hoping Mr. Warner told Death, "No my dear Reaper, you warrant no villainous exposition from me."

 

I loved his voice acting in Batman TAS.

 

Somebody posted a suspicious video of them entering a previously undiscovered secret church level on Nier Automata and it ignited the interest for Nier Automata again.

 

Yoko Taro was asked for comment and he did the equivalent of Tuxedo Mask.

People have been going nuts over the video. Especially from the fact that when he actually goes into the church A2 has a voice line and it looks like a whole sequence. I think the community is pretty split on him having made it himself (despite current modding tools for the game not really being capable of what he showed), one of the devs doing something to create hype, or him somehow having a dev copy of the game. It's absolutely nuts because Yoko Taro is being his usual self about it and that just sparked more interest.

 

Its really funny how its possible it will be able to temporarily defeat the interest with the lewds.

Spoiler: Meme

 

Lewds are temporary. Internet history is forever.

 

My guess is they discovered a cut room

 

The problem is the modders can't find most of the assets for the area in the game files and the area can't be seen no matter how far you clip out the map. Most notably they say the hallway at the bottom of the drop and all the building pieces jutting in and out aren't in the files at all. There's basically no evidence of the area existing in normal games and it's too high quality to be immediately written off as a mod, which is the main reason everyone's stumped.

 

Update on the Nier stuff: Apparently going in with 9S let's you fight the blob in the church? And now the Nier Discord has people in a VC playing "Weight of the World" trying to give the guy their energy like it's Ending E and I have no fucking clue what's going on anymore. At this point I feel like there's no way this isn't the devs just fucking with us.

This is the most action that the Nier Community has had in months. So I will just give them this victory

 

It's Yoko's Wild Ride, when is he not fucking with us?

 

LOL, turns out it was a mod. People even started suspecting Drakengard 3 Remake or sequel because they put in a creepy ass throwback to the Ending E of Drakengard 3. I'm really impressed considering up until now Nier modders couldn't make any of this stuff work so these dudes must have been working in secret for the past 2 years at least. They just shot the modding community for the game forward like a decade since they somehow managed to pull all of this off in engine. Yoko Taro should hire these guys because they had pretty much everyone convinced it was super elaborate marketing.
