Congratulations on this accomplishment.

Damnit. I tried the YouTube and Twitch recordings in hopes that I would be able to figure out how to progress in the game, but in both cases there is no audio! This is becoming very ARG-esque for me. Edit: I finally got "something" to happen. I'm a little tortoise; slow and stubborn. Edit: now that "something" has happened, that being a bunch of loading or something, everything gets corrupted faster so typing dir only gives me a glance and I don't read fast enough or have a memory of what was listed before. Edit: I restarted so I could read them again. Fuckin A Spenny, I had to do work!

Based on your description, it sounds like the processes of creating this piece is more important than my listening to it afterwards. Still, since you shared it I thought you might find my response interesting. While my ears hear the piano as passionate expression, they hear the vocals as being satirical or ironic. Based on your description, I don't think my perception is accurate but it makes me wonder what the auditory heuristics I've developed to grade the level of feeling emotion concurrently with the actual performance (in vocals). I suspect that when a singer is trained, the legit personhood in their voice is replaced with a hyper-real symbolic style that culturally represents personhood. A cyberpunky extrapolation of this (after all, it is Cyber Monday) would be that eventually algorithms will sound more like person-like than actual people. I guess it's already happened with widely distributed recorded media. Realizing this, I find myself wanting to listen to more stuff like this so that my learned biases may dissipate and I can appreciate the pure shit.

I have no idea what I am doing largely because I have no experience with dos commands, But I find the interface's visual and auditory effects to be very evocative and interesting.

It's actually on sale right now. If you put TITAN20 in the promo code box on Origin, It's $32

Here's a neat video that was included in a Rock Paper Shotgun article about maps built where you are just supposed to press forward.

I read that keeping text blocks visually small goes a long way. So for instance, a 100-word monologue is easier to digest when split up and requires the user to click to get all the sections of the text. Personally I think that frequent sound and visual changes help too.

This is a longshot, but if anyone gets a coupon for Trackmania Turbo and you want to give it to me, please PM.

I like the background textures. I'm curious if the game will feel completely whimsical or if it will have some weight.

If nothing else, make some more evocative gifs.

OPEN WINTER DEMO is live again! So that basically means I can play all the Trackmania I want for free. I don't know what happened, but the Trackmania2 Stadium multiplayer servers don't seem to have music anymore. So now I'm playing Trackmania2 Canyon. The drifting is a significant difference and I'm really enjoying it while I listen to erotic EDM that I would never know about otherwise. Also, it seems that the demo clock will start again if you switch between Stadium and Canyon. If you do that and run out, you'll get your hour again on the next day, and the clock won't start ticking until you switch between the games again. There is something really valuable about playing custom tracks and listening to the same public playlist with people from around the world at the same time.

What article?

I'm also in a period of reassessment. My method of coping in the meantime is watching gospel organist videos on Youtube between reading articles about politics.

I'm very much looking forward to Medium. Hopefully I'll never have to unwrap a UV map again! http://www.roadtovr.com/oculus-medium-review/

I got three beta keys for the Steep beta. It lasts til Nov 14th 11am PST. I haven't played much yet, but it seems like the closest thing to SSX on PC. So far it feels much less arcadey. There is wing-suit and parachute stuff that I don't find very interesting, but the snow-boarding feels rewarding regardless of whether or not I'm making a jump. My favorite thing about it so far is that after you reach the finish line, you can keep going. These keys can be redeemed here. Friend 1: MCPCNWRVGZRN Friend 2: 9FCKHG2MNCNE Friend 3: ZD6UBMB3QMDJ

I think her ultimate also counters Zenyatta's while his ult is active. I'm not completely sure that it does, but I think I've done it twice. I wouldn't think that was very useful, but I've seemingly negated Zenyatta's ult and it has been a massive boon to my team in both circumstances. I'm reading that her ultimate does nothing to Zenyatta's, but like I said, I think I've done it twice. I'm not confident in my observational abilities though.

Btw, you can't play custom tracks in VR with Trackmania Turbo.

Somehow I've fallen into a gospel-organ hole ( a good thing). I've particularly been astonished by Cory Henry. So my Youtube recommendations are starting to get pretty good. This one is beyond my current capability, but I think its probably going to be a useful step for me at some point.

Apparently Animal Collective made a song for Red Dead Redemption that didn't get used.

I tried it out again just now to see if I was just somehow not susceptible to nausea or something this morning; that's how much of a difference asyncronous-space-warp is making, that I have a hard time believing it. No nausea at all with motions that I know would have done so just a week ago. I even played a time-trial of a level in Lucky's Tale that has a drop that I remember having made me nauseated before; it's fine, I experience no nausea. Now, like I said, Minecraft still makes me a bit queasy so it's still possible to get simulation-sick, but this difference is significant for me. I feel that I will be able to comfortably play genres of games that I had simply accepted I would not be able to play.

I noticed that Trackmania Turbo has a demo now and I knew that their VR update just came out so I downloaded it and tried it out. I didn't get the slightest bit of simulation-sickness which I found really odd considering that the type of motion that was occurring in the game was the type that I usually have trouble with. Then I remembered that the platform-wide Asyncronous-Space-Warp update was supposed to have come out so I started wondering if that's why I didn't have any problem. I went into Project Cars which I have been able to play, but which has always made me feel a tinge of simulation-sickness... no problems. Minecraft is the only game that I have tried this morning that I still have problems with and even it feel much better than it did last month. I'm really surprised that my simulation-sickness was from some technical issue rather than a perspective in the game. Everything had been mostly holding 90FPS with just a few frame-drops.

Having not played it, I still recommend playing another.

I get confused between Pillars of Eternity and Divinity Original Sin and I think there were some others. Are these games similar in pace and narrative/battle relationships as Dragon Age and Mass Effect? i might have asked this before i'm looking for something that is character-driven narratively, has a quicker battle-dialogue-battle-dialogue pace than Persona 4, and doesn't have all the side-work of Dragon Age 3.

Sounds interesting.
