I've never heard a Skype recording that didn't make my ears bleed. ):

Man, that note really is exactly what you say, isn't it. That's a shame. He's definitely done a lot of interviews where he talks about how it's a pretty personal game and it's not just offensive to be offensive, but I suppose he could've been bullshitting the whole time. I dunno. I'm not the kind of person who cares all that much, anyway, so I never bothered to really think about it. I play the game 'cause it's super fun. But yeah... I dunno!

haha all right And I unlocked the sweet shortcut right outside the entrance to Old Yharnam. I don't have to fight the werewolves every time do I? I haven't gone back through the shortcut yet, but werewolves are annoying (but dealable, I guess). And I bought that key. And I upgraded my axe the final time and finally put the gemstones in it. And I got a weapon I can't use cause my bloodtinge is... 7. Hah. SOUNDS COOL, THOUGH?? So I guess I'll be fighting Old Yharnam's boss soon? Feels like it's about time? fun gameeeeeeeeee

All right what's the trick to murdering this fucking he just tears me apart every time I get to him. ): Which honestly I wouldn't mind so much if I didn't have to wait 5.7 hours at the loading screen every time I died. At least this time I made the mistake of trying to run through the and died before getting my echoes back so I can rush through stuff now instead of being super careful. Except I want to be super careful anyway because of that damn loading screennnnnnn.

Man that was a good Nintendo Direct. Lots of cool stuff for everyone. Splatoon continues to look rad as heck!

No it looks like he got it pretty spot on. Say something dumb that only you find funny.

ughhhhhhhhhh

Man Death Parade's OP is so good. Is there an anime about dancing? Well there's all those idol anime I guess, but what about like ballroom dancing? I bet I'd dig that.

Yep!

My parents installed sliding floors that revealed actual lava and so it took me years to understand that when other people were playing this game, they weren't just practicing like I was.

It honestly might be my favorite. I really really really loved it.

Ahem. It's over! Anyway I haven't really spoken up yet but I'd be interested in doing a 'cast thinger buuuut I've done a VOIP 'cast before and gosh it is rough.

What I'm hoping for is some actual information on what the new account stuff will entail. What I'm expecting is nothing at all about that.

omg the last episode of yowamushi pedal is currently streaming on my other monitor i'm so stoked i'm even going to watch the op o: o: o: EDIT:

This is now the Bloodborne thread.

And Pillars of Eternity. ): I'm hoping they'll talk about the future of their new account system whatsits tomorrow. Not really expecting much, though. ):

That's how I understand it, too.

christ that dude is broken

In this case (Bloodborne) it's not even Sony that has to do the work. Actually, in every case.

Arslan the manga is not really any good, unfortunately. Anyway I'm definitely in the "this coming season looks so barren" camp. There's just not much going on. ):

Yeah that's exactly the problem here. It's functionally the same thing as unplugging your internet (through whatever means) and then plugging it back in. Or, at least, it should be functionally the same thing. I don't even think it's worth considering staying connected to the servers as if you were an idle client. That's just silly and a waste of resources, however minuscule. Disconnect on rest, and reconnect on unrest. Or, to put it in a way that the game is more likely to do things if rest mode doesn't communicate with the game at all*: 1) enter rest mode, SERVER detects inactivity, automatically disconnects; 2) exit rest mode, GAME detects inactivity, automatically reconnects. Networking 101! *There's probably functionality somewhere in the OS so the game knows it's entering rest mode and can gracefully disconnect. If there's not, there should be, and for exiting rest mode, too.

No it's not like Persona. It's a dungeon-crawling RPG with lots of dungeon-crawling and also pokemon capture monsters elements. I never got that far, but the story isn't really all that interesting 10 hours in. I guess like the church is evil or whatever it's a jrpg fuck it i dunno

There's literally no reason they have to keep the player online the whole time it's in rest mode. Dunno why anyone would suggest that! That's crazy talk. You just send a simple "reconnect" message to the game, and the game handles it form there (which most games should definitely easily be able to handle from there, because any game worth its salt should have that basic functionality built in for when that shit happens from networking hiccups or whatever else could happen...).
