bastard, good to know tho
I just gave him a few defensive EVs and a life orb and go agane
Dammit to gmax it we have figure out what food it likes, the mushroom soup wont work
Damn you be having bad luck huh
Ye he just crit brick break twice
Oof
Hmm so in the next dlc we’ll be seeing someone from the base game in it
The story is still going after the evolution
I... Learned why it didn't take supereffective damage
Fighting is not x2 against fighting
I thought it was
For like 7 years
Oh lmao
Idk how I was wrong about that
Ya know, Urshifu getting iron head means it can combat fairy types
Maybe the dark form won’t be so bad online
How fast is it
Base 97 speed for both forms
It has a lot of coverage, a scarf set could be really good
100 base defense, 60 spdef
Yeah that sounds about right
130 attack
Shame fairy tends to be sp
Idk what to do with slowbro
I think phys with zen headbutt
Is its attack higher than special?
in ul'dah rn doe 😳
Wait jhock was your kubfu faster than his
shit mine is not
Also 9 levels higher than his
Dang galarian slowbro looking good moveset wise
Signature move does its damage based on which attack stat is higher
So physical or Special sets work for it
you guys have fun eith slowbro I need to fight hop 
I need to charge my switch but the dlc is looking good so far
Also Klara’s battle theme is interesting
I just maxed kubfu's speed EVs
Eh it is short on bops imho
Pokemon usually has very melodic motif themes
These sorta don't
What's Avery's like
Very techno themed
I’ll see if I can find a vid of the music
Pokemon Sword and Shield, Avery Battle theme from the newest DLC!
Also follow me on twitter if you want! https://twitter.com/BlackBirdZzZz
Is Avery less of an unrelenting dick than Klara
Avery is a huge dick
He threatens to do shit to you with pyschic powers if we told Mustard he was fucking with us
which pokemon tastes best
What?
🍴
Alcremie
I'm just gonna say yes because I can't keep up with that series anymore
Jhock what the fuck you need to gmax Urshifu
Did you go back to the dojo?
GOTTA CATCH EM ALL
Oh dear
It threw me into the max vespiquen with my Quagsire in front
This might be difficult

inb4 u realize I am the final boss
I also am apparently being put into a video game
well, my "thulm" name is being put into a video game as a boss
imagine if someone ever managed to get all Alcremie types... including shiny variation
I have 8 battle ready alcremies I think
I need a battle-ready @frosty tundra
And I think I have 2 shines one gmax and one shine gmax
https://twitter.com/Yeetswitch/status/1273376357364318208 gmax water urshifu move
the move is one pose short of a gmax raging demon
is that final battle a 1 on 1 or full team
ok so restock my team then lol
it gives you due warning so dw
deadass?
i think i only collected one extr
and that was enough
I unlocked Restricted Sparring at the end which i just know is gonna be urshifu only or something
I like bede's fight theme
it's chaotic but fun as hell
Because I want ALL OF THEM.
@fallen nexus ❤️
🐦
Oh restricted sparring isn't urshifu only
...it's fuckin Smashdown
Restricted typing
it's so pretty
i still love how klara just be vibin to her own theme
it's like she's doing the lowest effort chika dance
I'm just pissed that Venipede is Klara's ace and the aces didn't get a gmax
I was THIS CLOSE to gmax scolipede in my life
I assume Avery has alakazam line @spring burrow ?
Yeah, his ace is also Slowbro though since its Psychic and Poison
the fool had a god damn level 66 ponyta though
klara had a venipede line, slowbro, and a k.weezing
i feel i'm due an epilogue klara fight cause she hasn't used Scolipede yet
She used Venipede once, Whirlipede twice and Slowbro once
I imagine Avery hasn't used alakazam either
Avery had Ponyta, Kadabra, Swoobat, and Slowbro
boy am I tempted to do the final battle without gmax urshifu cause these mushrooms are rare
oh i didn't
i didn't even think you could
he has one but i just used regular urshifu cause ofc his is weak to fight
outsped and it went down in 2 turns
mm
i think his urshifu is like 76 or so?
and yeah he has what i didn't pick
so he has fight-dark
so for me he'll have the water one
yuh
thankfully i still had dmax close combat on mine and since dark is weak to fight but water isn't
ez game
they maybe didn't give scolipede a gmax cause then they'd have to give alakazam a gmax and probably get sued again
¯_(ツ)_/¯
oh wow
he didn't me
the fuck he use for that?
the corviknight?
also these comment sections
'We can fight a pastel goth in SwSh. I think GameFreak understands me a little too much'
dynamax bolthund two shot it
the only thing he set up against me was lightscreen and he just kept doing that til the corviknight went down cause I led lurantis defog lmao
and he just kept reapplying light screen after i defogged
his lycanroc set them up on me
oh Elon ohkoed the lycanroc
and outsped surprisingly
might've been the 30 level difference tho tbf
lmao Elon king
im surprised there is no wowhead-chan
...that's a horrific idea but i'd love to see it
Ya know, its odd that the dlc doesnt seem to care if youre champion or not
Yeah they literally never note it
I suppose you don't NEED to beat leon to do isle i think but
wow logic in pokemon 
but they're like 'holy fuck who are you'
'bruh are you not aware'
i also liked how the fast slowpoke in the trial were obscenely fast in stats
Or how he still has a god damn ||legendary|| (spoilers for eighty eight)
fuckiiiing ponytaaaaa
like i think those slowpoke may have just had priority
they outsped my decidueye lead at level 100
breeding jolteon with ponyta because I don't have other eevee/eeveelution and only ponytas are hatching fucking christ
oh, I got a free porygon
Yeah I found an Upgrade but I never found Porygon
Mustard's son has it
Oh the idiot kid
He gave me a porygon while I have a porygon z on my team
yeah i was gonna say can you evo porygon z in this game
cause don't you need the dubious disc still
or is that also from him
it has to be from somewhere around here
also omg the walking animation for porygon z
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGs0NyvOTkE one google search
YEP THATS IT
quagsire has a great running animation
he just looks like he has no care about what happens in the process of him reaching his destination
so it looks like they used the animations from SM that they never used
finally putting those things to use
Oh yeah true
need to breed a politoed now also tbh
rain teams actually fun again now politoed is here
Apparently every Pokémon has a running animation, possibly from a cut following feature.
quag
he skip
oh god he ROLLIN
ya know, I just realized Unown is a pokemon that will never be added to swsh
because hidden power
yep
my scolipede still had HP when it transferred up
that was fun
doesn't do anything ofc
ye, the removed moves are still therem just useless
i have so many amazing mons in swsh now
can't choose
my scolipede is definitely getting some use
he is named The Megapode and using a determiner actually works quite well
beside when it says 'TNAEmu's The Megapode uses'
it was quite funny when he was just a venipede
and he's sitting here with this imposing name and a Serious nature
real serpent of ronka vibes
hell yeah
I mean consider this
Venipede stealth dropped into the DLCs
nobody saw this coming
my last shiny hunt was venipede
and it was a randomised mon in a randomised game
and it gave me venipede gen 6
If I had done gen 5, I couldn't have transferred into Home cause I don't have B2W2
So that randomised hunt predicted the fucking future
i do like how Scizor's dex entry says its wings aren't for flying, but for heat regulation
but it fucking flies
meanwhile skarmory has been a dead as hell lookin mon since XY sky battles changed all the anims
cause if you didn't know, Skarmory's like, stadium anims were in the style of a vulture or buzzard
and now it just floats inanimately
found wild evoi that I can put for breeding
@spring burrow so it just clicked
mustard's wife is named honey
honey mustard
smfh
i also found Piers there
in a cave
seemed to just be flavour, he remarked that oh god, wherever you are there's something bad going to happen
I found Kabu in the desert area
i don't think i've been back there tbh
theres wild rhyperior there
oo
i need to relisten to the towers themes cause i've heard a couple and in some i've heard there's a very clear example of shite track mixing lmfao
i had my eye out for a case of 'cursor left in the cutscenes' again but i think maybe that's it if it's legit
yoooo you didn't mention Avery's wack-ass ball throw anim
i think Mustard wins for his dynamax animation being kinda sick, and Klara's for having the most character
with the uwu-wink at the screen into the murderous throw
So, the dlc has been out for 12 hours
How much more Klara rule 34 y'all bet there is
all of it
yeah but even during the ps5 reveal there was already r34 of it
Yeah but there's gotta have been a hefty spike

Especially since her personality reveal has kinda slotted her into the A2 bracket of 'step on me'

that probs does wonders for a character on r34
Klara: haha gotcha, tspikes
Scolipede: vrrrrrrrrrm
Klara: o fuc
Also swsh reminded me, scolipede makes a hell of a fuckin noise
That mf damn near roars
the presents were fuckin useless
next week either drops omega sinnoh, or let's go johto
Sinnoh remake is likely cause i mean it just kinda is
But the sheer amount of gen2 plushies behind him AND the lgpe copies?
and the jet black pikachu which was kinda weird ngl
true
no in app purchases
thank god i can now brush my teeth without being forced to buy something

new mobile game for the switch
epic

@timber crag if you want to keep that look like the letters are floating in water
you could make it so that the letters are distorted by the waves of the water above them
and either the materialize and form into a super-imposed actual readable game over writing ontop of the water
or the letters just dissolve in the water and you have a fade to black to main menu,could also have the first idea,but instead of materializing,they just float to the surface of the water,ez
yes i'm a game design genius dont @ me
also
@spring heath
Omg I want to pet that cat so badly...
Anyone here happen to be familiar with/know something about elder futhark runes? Needing a second opinion on my research so my tattoo is correct.
<@&299347348847329281>
👀
imagine if they are moving the release date to not have crunch
also didnt witcher 3 also get delayed 3 times?
👀
"not have crunch" they already said the game was finished
You can finish a rough draft and refine all the bits
more wondering how long it takes before it gets leaked
As long as the devs are being treated well, the game should be high excellence when it's released
well we'll find out on the 25th i guess
emu moved to PLD now
how many jobs left in this madness pursuit for all jobs at 80
5?
I need to get back to working at it myself
past couple days I've jsut been bluh
But I am stocking rested at least
B L U H
honestly now, bless CD Project Red for bugtesting their own game before releasing, if they end up true to their words
It's going to release so close to the new consoles
😂
Almost looks like a happy accident
"""""happy accident""""" 
I know what words I used 
Ya know I saw this on twitter and its accurate
i mean i tried saying it was doing some dirty moves
but everyone was blinded by hype
even in my uni
the money's theirs
so not my problem
👀
i told them once
even before the DLCs were a thing it was being real shady
EVEN when they showed footage of the game on switch it was looking shady
PS2 graphics for trees anyone? on a console that runs doom(2016) at 60 fps?
even in here i was looked down upon for my opinion
🤔
but emu never heeds my advice and then gets burned 50% of the time
so i guess it's funny
Fuck this game
nice jhock
If we defeat 1 million of them
yeah. /airquotes
they're not gonna pull 'oh dear you didn't beat 1mil'
especially cause they're very easily soloable
mostly cause its AI seems to triple into you quite a lot on raids
eh, mine tripled into me quite often, tried plasma fists and max outrage a bunch, and hone claws
none of which works because Elon
think i had kit's dhelmise, sean's torkoal and i think the maractus
a more pleasant thing you never did see

nice
ooooofff.. so much XP xD
just running gulg for an hour or two will probably get someone to 80 from there tbh
@spring burrow I was right, catch that abysmal mixing at about 15sec with the cymbal https://youtu.be/7K2yVc6xyYQ
Hi everyone! This is actually the theme of Master Dojo Student from the Tower of Darkness Battle Theme from Sword and Shield.
I've decided to add my own Gameplay in it. Hope you appreciate.
Credit: Nintendo, Game Freak, Creature Inc., TPCi
Original Composition : Go Ichinose, ...
14sec more like actually
that is the cursor-in-the-credits of this dlc i feel
Also holy shit jhock did you pass 1mil watts to the dojo
Cause
There's content past that
Including a fucking gen 8 Hurry Along theme which I thought was dead in the water

This battle is Hidden this time. You need 1000000 Watts to challenge her.
...
Good Luck! You need it :)
It's been quite a while I haven't posted Gameplay so I hope you'll appreciate!
this will be my last one for now.
-----------------------------------------------------------...
@spring burrow
oh
probably should've tagged that but who the fuck getting 1mil watts
I can give you a million whats
and like if you do watch that vid
||pay attention to her throwing anims, they are brutal||
||she throws the dynamax ball one handed at mad speed, and the first ball she throws deforms as she does||
wew
damn
ea play 2020 in 1 hour 
its the best one too
I'm partway through caster, finished healing and physical
i feel the healer one would've knocked it outta the park if ||Giott was the sister Lamitt saved and she was leading you on the whole time||
😭
but since all the role quests follow 'sin eater bad'
'sin eater not bad'
formula
well like have they said how long they live
you have a large amount of plot convenience with high fantasy dwarves
Truuuuuuuuuuuue
If this is the same NPC I'm thinking of, didn't they specify three elven lifespans?
All races can live to be 100-120 years old, though most don't last beyond 50, and Elezen/Elves have longer lifespans than the other races.
In any case, you can expect Viera to live at least 300 years.
hmmm
I was posting the whole comment but mostly for the middle bit
and the Ronkan empire is Very Dead™️
yeah i think that's like, vaguely believable
if you make Giott an actual child at the time and Lamitt not a bunch older but she does act older so ehhh
Huh and not only do I have pld to 80 now, and some gear for it
I have enough sks to make every tank's rotation work
so the leader/estate designer of my FC stumbled into my FC room
and now the whole FC has gone on a tour of all my estates
hmm yes all of my estates
Jeeves has been tending to my various rooms and corridors
well the game calls it estates
not my fault the wording is pretentious
i did feel in the beginning that using 'estate' to refer to Hat Child's glorified pillow lairs was a bit odd
WTB option to blacklist words for the wowhead comment section

||female miqo'te are the most played by a good margin|| ^
||Dancer is the job with the lowest amount of players|| ^
||Diabolos and Malboro have the highest american population,while Hyperion has the lowest|| ^
||tiamat has lowest pop on japanese serves,and tonberry has the most BY A LANDSLIDE difference|| ^
||on EU,spriggan has the lowest pop and Lich has the highest pop|| ^
meanwhile for "active" characters...
i did feel somewhat guilty about picking fem miqo'te
but Hat Child has made up for it in wholesome memery
not the first time you follow the masses emu
||goblin has lowest pop @spring heath meanwhile gilgamesh has highest pop for US servers|| ^
||zeromus has lowest pop and tonberry highest pop for JP servers|| ^
||spriggan has lowest pop and ragnarok has highest pop for EU servers|| ^
the GC allegiance is ||pretty evenly|| split
||you have "for all chars" Twin adder/gridania"|| with the most people and for active chars ||Maelstrom has the most by a 50k difference||
||22MILLON deleted characters O.O|| ^
and that concludes it
images taken seconds before disaster
WHY DID ARBY EVEN MAKE A WAIFU
i mean,KFC has colonel sanders(which there's a dating sim about,mind you)
wendys has the wendy girl
now arby attracted the shadman
you never attract the shadman,thats bad news
think that was last year or so
still
because no one's gonna eat at arby's for food so they want to get influence from other sources

that's a good emote

It's hard to hear much when it hasn't been out for even 24 hours yet
Those reviews haven't finished the game
the users I mean
i've heard it like
should've been a movie
or something
¯_(ツ)_/¯
idc for the franchise so
our FC now has its first Nuhn
who didn't know what the name meant
I give last of us 2 a solid 3.14
and is now in a mixture of pale shock and some other stuff
@neon hinge DUDE
the ENTIRE game
was out on youtube
weeks before it came out
like the fully complete entirety of the full game
gameplay with all the cutscenes
from review copies
should've been a movie
that's 1 too though
people are mad because they heavily fucked up the story
the graphics are great
the gameplay is last of us 1 with some QoL
its also been streamed for the last day or two
because people got early copies
week, if we're including retailers
but streamers have been playing it for the last couple
the funniest review was when i think SkillUp compared it to "The last Jedi" and "Game of thrones season 8"
bruh moment
My friend called my group chat and has just been sitting in vc alone for 3 hours

Yes
Reee
I don't mind the message but it being on the top and marking something makes me a bit anxious
Yeah I don't like that it's the same color as the new messages xD
I just wanna read the thing but the site keeps failing
@spring heath would you happen to have any pixie cotton on hand?

But then again 24 player on hardest boss and hoping for a mount loot if you get lucky with it can be a bitch
And other weapon for fashion purpose
Gonna level up my gunbreaker
Oh no please don't tell me collectible crafting has a whole different rotation too
thank lord, it doesn't
Lmao

@spring heath
Getting better
So my mom is buying her own nintendo switch
unironically, what games would she probably like
she got it to play ring fit adventure
empress of light in one gif
@lost plinth tell her to buy animal crossing
we already have it
buy it again
honestly um
i got animal crossing for my birthday back in march
exactly when the FF bug hit me
and i haven't uh
started
true
ive played animal crossing for a couple of hours
i left for like 3 days and came back to find they had crafted houses
im scared to boot up my switch and find a xenophobic empire dedicated to Tom zos Nook
I'm very tempted...
@severe river do it or try it out
thats way too expensive, you can get it much cheaper elsewhere
there is also free to level 35 so long as you dont spend any money first. Since you can be all classes on one character plenty of things to try before buying
only 3 races locked
Half dragon from stormblood and Tiger and bunny from shadowbrianger
Heavensward is first race
Should be a steam summer sale here soon as well to look at for.
Steam summer sale so goooood
not having viera or hrothgar to choose at first i could live with
not having au ra still is kinda a kick in the teeth
60 bucks for the complete edition on the SE store
lol fuck Steam
thats the same price on steam right now
yeah
Steam has issues
its better through SE
Wait wtf is going on?
eh?
Just don't do it through Steam
"fashion" bro thats just a set
best ff14 advice you could ever have
there are some things that don't get equivalents for the Steam version
it's better to just not
yeah im p sure that just the set from the HW dungeons
No
its SB starter gear
oh
Stormblood
Level 60 tank set
Getting gun break to 66 then switch to pally then warrior
Tanks are my last role from 60 to 70
Before i start shadowbrianger
you havent started ShB yet?
Only stop at beginning of level 72
Just wonder how long will i unlock job quest 70s till i find out it way later

Just when everyone called me || the warrior of darkness have come||

especially cause the 4 FC dps i brought from our statics kinda ended up clowning themselves a lot
i dont think im going to be tanking any raids until my fc actually starts raiding so i dont clown myself infront of a bunch of randoms

Wait for a sale, it goes pretty cheap
I love lalas

@lost plinth Libero bunny gotten
was that for tlou 2?
lmao
Damn this game bombed
They fucked up the story real bad
He should have Jotaro walked
literally 1 tab open
that's chrome for ya, but uh.. i have ~200mb more memory used with 10+ tabs, so idk
Use Brave browser o.o
• Its built on chromium so you can have all your favorite chrome extensions,
• it doesnt C O N S U M E your ram
• it has adblock included by default
• can open 100 tabs without your pc going ded
@onyx wren @deft vapor
1 tab open but 13 processes for it?
@urban kite yes
thats not how chrome works but alright
what's exact reason they dislike tlou2?
story sucks, they killed off a very popular character, returning characters have completely different motives and ideals, game forces you into situations and then shames you for them uhhh.. list goes on
I see
disliking story of game is one thing but also heard some people excuse their homophobia/transphobia by judging some parts of the game altho I haven't heard details, watching a vid about tlou2 reviews rn
the homophobia and transphobia is baked into the games story is the issue. It's not so much of a "player" fault in arguing with it, since it was relevant in the first game and the DLC for it, but more just that the game beats you over the head with "THIS PERSON IS TRANS AND EVERYONE AROUND THEM HATES THAT"
so the writers specifically created trans and gay characters, only to then also include people that highlight it and go "LGBT BAD"
whereas in the first game it was.. i want to say "normal" but that sounds kinda offensive in a way? but it wasn't like "HEY LOOK, THIS PERSONS GAY" spotlight bullshit as in the 2nd
I see now
I haven't played the first game, only seen part of gameplay because the game is quite long
first game is good, recommend it at least, or even just watching a playthrough because it's a decent story
i think a lot of developers can confuse "we want gay heroes who do cool things" with "we want more gay bashing stories".
B/c I think a lot of gay bashing narratives are an attempt to get brownie points while also making an exhibition out of queer suffering for the consumption of a non-queer audience. It's really offputting.
i dunno what they were doing with this when it's just.. blatant. They kill off a trans character because they're trans, there's the whole "deadname" shit revolving around that and it's just like a really weird circus around it for some reason
oh that sounds fucked up
yeah no, i havent seen the full thing but from what I've read / heard is that people find out, they kill them and then its "THE STRAIGHTS" laughing about it or some shit
its the most forced and comical shit
because they clearly wrote it (and the majority of the story) to just make players feel bad, like the dog situation
there's been a really ugly pattern of "let's make queer heroes so we can brutalize them" in media as of late. Which is why I try to play games made by LGBT+ developers.
I mostly play games to escape such problems
It would be a little different if the characters overcame these struggles but they usually don't, lol.
It's still a step above invisibility but that's a very low bar.
its like.. the trans guy is there just as a punching bag the -entire- time you have him with you in-game
its just fucking dumb as hell on any kind of side
but the writers clearly went "yeah you're supposed to feel bad, the worlds gone to shit" but it's just kinda scummy like.. trauma porn
same with the dog, you kill a dog (after they claimed you wouldn't be forced to) and then it gives you flashbacks of its owner playing fetch with it
the game's just a fucking mess
but everyone will do the same shit they did with star wars where they'll go "OH THOSE ANTI-SJW'S HATE WOMEN"
you'd need to show a character from positive side first to then give value to their death or emotional scene
like no dude it's just a shitty fucking movie / game
but it's just kinda scummy like.. trauma porn
@urban kite That's exactly what it is.
Spec ops the line -kinda- did the same thing, but it was at least done in a way that wasn't just full on "haha you feel bad now"
I'm someone that'd want to delve into writing stories
tlou2 is a good example of how not to write stories
pretty much
I would rather my games not focus on characters sexuality at all, like I really don't have to care about my character being a straight person or gay person, forcing it in my face isn't gonna fix it, I don't mind when they mention it once just as a fun thing, but when it's part of the plot it just becomes 
which is a shame because the first+dlc was really good
I'm only familiar with intro of first so far, gameplay is multiple hours of watch
might schedule it for some day
it's semi-like my attitude towards jumpscares in games as a horror device
i appreciate shit done well. i do not appreciate 'look at it. we did this. look at it. have you looked at it yet, here it is. we'll put it in your face, here'
"here is thing you should be scared of, right here please look for several seconds as it stares into the camera at you"
yeah, it's fucking stupid
also unrelated but this's a trip
no it's not
I have unlimited data on phone so I could watch it when not home 
it's uldah
no it's fighting gym
I only ever liked Platinum
I played like 3 of them and they were all meh to me other than platinum
pokemon bad
wait how did we switch to pokemon
because idk why but ul'dah reminds me of stow on side
first i played was emerald, first I played properly was Diamond (still never beat it due to being an idiot kid
) my absolute favourite was X, USUM was ok i guess and swsh was decent but should've been amazing
tbh stow on side theme playing in ul'dah would fit well 
swsh just aches of 'rushed game', there's so many attributes of it that are stellar, that just exist in a meh surrounding
u click on the add webhook button
nah cause i don't fuckin' know
just because they own the popular IP doesn't mean they're good at making games 
they still use outdated engine
Batman discord 
neither did the person asking the question 
like the music, the gym battles (despite the difficulty) and 90% of the characters are hands-down some of the best the series has had, by a long shot
i wholly hope they follow the ORAS pattern with sinnoh remake and do the gym battles EXACTLY like swsh
Someone should voice act Piers
@unreal stirrup it's a csgo server 
you know why
not that 88
yeah i do
i played swsh, played the opening, and was kinda put off guard before remembering 'oh yeah, pokemon never voice acts'
when did eevee get the pikachu treatment with its cry? was it LGPE?
probably? haven't followed new games until I got a Switch
Emu remember that lets go eevee exists?
cause all i knew is when i came back to pokemon for SwSh, i remembered eevee went scree but here eevee went eevee
which is my first physical nintendo console, only emulated old nintendo games on pc before
It be the 2nd mascot now
and I disliked DS emulators
one of my friends resents Eevee cause their favourite pokemon is Psyduck, and Psyduck narrowly got passed over to be the second mascot for let's go
they were buggy and not fun to use
I would rather my games not focus on characters sexuality at all,
@empty swallow
People want more lgbt characters in media that they can relate to. It's not about one specific piece of media either but a general trend.
And I think most folks don't really want "I'm _ and this is my story about being __" either because that's clumsy writing. They usually want "This is a story and some people like me get to be along for the ride or go on the journey."
Though there's a lot of personal pieces of media that are meant to be personal and niche which have those focuses-- stuff like Night in the Woods and Oxenfree and Kentucky Route 0.
I played oxenfree but it was probably drunk with friends at 3am,but i dont remember any lgbt characters
hence why the first game did it great because you only discover a character was gay because you find he wrote a note mourning his dead husband and that was it
The protagonist is bi in oxenfree.
Yes you can still relate to a character because they're gay, doesn't mean the game has to shove it in your face to relate to it
I relate to a lot of characters that are insanely different fro mme
I'm saying don't make it a pivotal point of the game whether this character is gay or not, unless it somehow relates to plot
I mean 🅱️onte relates to catgirl mom
I think it's important that these characters interact on screen though and that their relationships with people aren't hidden lore nuggets.
Because people interacting is a big part of story. So you're cutting out a huge section of their lives when you do stuff like that.
It's not great.
think monte's more meaning.. he doesn't need to just see lesbiambs kissing to know that they're lesbian
Well I feel that's a given.
I don't know the deal with TLOU2 but I'm saying in general games are trying way too hard to cater to something that really doesn't matter, like I don't go up to a person and my first care in the world about them is if they're gay or not irl
Like I know it's a vocal minority that cares about this dumb shit
yeah but i think there's just some miscommunication between you two is all, when i think you mean the same thing
representation is good, but it doesn't need to be the center of the story
and shouldn't be
Like if it's for character development in a way, I don't mind a scene like that, but recently it just feels like they're doing it just for the sake of hey we have lgbt person
Anyway, i got the entire story of TLOUs2 right here in one line(beware condensed spoilers)
||the duo happens upon hostile girl,joel completely forgets his character from the first and straight out tells who they are and where they live to a stranger girl,stranger girl bashes joel's head in without a fight,ellie angery,ellie get beat up,ellie go back to farm with lesbian GF,lesbian gf doesnt want to fight,ellie REEEEs back onto her revenge plot,finds stranger girl captured,frees her,proceeds to kick the shit out of weakened stranger girl,stranger girl bites two fingers off ellie,ellie lets stranger live,goes back to farm,no gf|| and it ends there
You're welcome,fhe entire plot
Of last of us 2
oh boy time to read, 'cause I don't really care for the game anyhow
||GF IS GONE
||
they're doing it just for the sake of hey we have lgbt person
It's usually an attempt to get money from LGBT consumers without actually putting meaningful LGBT characterizations in.
Yeah I couldn't care less about the game
Yeah exactly george, I'm saying shit like that really shouldn't matter
its the same thing "The Corporations" do where they put a rainbow on their pfp for a month
