Media & Mayhem / Re: Pokemon Go
« on: July 20, 2016, 04:06:04 am »
Pikachu was my starter. Probably the best/rarest critter I'll ever find at this rate, which sucks because he has shittier stats than the non-easter-egg starters. Not that that matters, I'll have to drive 30 minutes to get to a gym and actually use my pokemon for anything anyway. I'm hoarding pidgeys in the vague hope that I'd be able to sell them or something for advancement in the game and/or trade them for pokemon I actually like, but for now all I have are these damn birds because that's all that spawns in areas of reliable connection in my entire neighborhood.

I have about ten of them now, and I hate them all. I would rather roast them alive with barbecue sauce and feed them to the homeless, but that would be too much gameplay for Pokemon Go. Gameplay is not a thing that happens, only an illusion of play created by ball-throwing and collecting 3-D stickers that you will rarely (possibly never) do anything with.

Granted, it's a fun egg-hunt simulator if you're really in a chipper mood and you don't know the area, but you're kind of limited to your yard if you don't have an accommodating data plan, and once you've gone to the same general area, you notice its tropes and spawn points, which immediately takes put the fun because now there's only about two working places to look for one kind of Farking crawly little bastard. Maybe two, if it's a particularly big/diverse yard, but I think our yard is above average in magnitude, even for rural areas, so I'm guessing most people'll find only one kind of bubble for one kind of thing in their general lifespace.

I sure wouldn't have kept a Pokemon game where I couldn't get past the first grass patch. Sure, I could blame it on me being a lazy bastard, but my entire area for miles around is the first grass partch, except things only twiddle about once every 5 hours or so unless you're spawn-camping the little bubble in which those ungodly brown sky-chickens are shat from the deepest bowels of Aztec Hell.

So, to answer Tim's question,
What kind of Jigglypuff doesn't have Sing?
A jigglypuff from Farking Pokemon Go.
(Actually, the first wild one I caught in a real pokemon game didn't have sing until I taught it to them. I instinct way knew this was wrong because it went against everything Smash had taught me. BUT THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT THIS GAME SUCKS!)

Nope... You may want to actually get some basic info first...

I have basic info. I've seen the game. You can make in-app purchases of smelly jelly, which I can only imagine Farks over people with less money, but I've never seen it used with other players within 3 square miles. And you can also purchase more balls, which allow you to keep playing the game, basically, because there's nothing else to do but catch shit when no one else plays.

Apparently, this is how it works, from my experience.
>Friend comes over, says PG is awesome.
>Spend an eternity waiting for connection with GPS.
>Play MTG.
>Finally starts, his phone needs to be recharged.
>Charge phone, continue doing other things.
>Walk outside. Follow vague non-directions because pokemon are supposedly in the area.
>Walk for an hour throughout massive rural landscape.
>Apparently Pidgey, my least favorite pokemon in all of ever, spawns in a corner of my yard once every 3 hours. Zubat, my other least favorite pokemon, lives in my neighbor's woods somewhere. Next time I go that way, I'll have to bring a flamethrower. Obnoxious bastards.
>Another hour. The only creature that was remotely interesting was a purple dildo snake.
>Spend another hour walking to town, because, my friend assures me, town is where all the Pokemons go!... Because Pokemon are the opposite of real animals, apparently!
>We are greeted by a long list of repettitive D-Listers in alleyways and streetcorners, not unlike town in real life.
>Friend has to go home now. It was an afternoon poorly wasted.

But, I guess, if you live in a city, or a settlement of reasonable bigness, shit will show up in your house, judging from the amount of "Wait a tick, this isn't right..." vibes I've been getting from my friend. The number of pokemon per acre drops to ridiculous levels whenever there's free acres to run around in, and I could have infinitely more success playing inside pokemon, and actually playing a game, rather than walking around in public poking this embarrassing app. (And it is embarrassing, when you're the only ones doing it. I pity the fools in small towns who do this shit.) So, in my case, and probably the case of hundreds of other people, there's no point in having the game. The only thing you can do is incredibly slow, un-rewarding, and boring without money enhancements, and there's nothing you can do with these pokemon unless you go out, move to some building or other, and then challenge a bunch of people who've been at it longer than you to a battle. Not even directly, you just throw critters at the building, and any critters they've stuck to it will fight back, supposedly. How wonderful that the only gyms available are miles away. Woo hoo.

When the day comes that I can use superpowered animals as personal mafia drones to one-man goldfarm millions from the hands of eager children, then I'll be excited. Until then, the prospect of paying in order to wait an hour to look for shitty pokemon that may or may not actually be in reach or even in walking range for the sake of possibly battling the two other people in town who're actually into this shit does not interest me.

And it was funny.  You hardly ever see a survival-type story with that much humor.

Well, there was that one movie with Harrison Ford about a plane trip in Hawaii that went sour, but that seemed a little bit more like a mishmashed 90s thing that couldn't decide whether it wanted to be a survival story, an action movie, a rom-com, or a soap opera episode about magazine journalism, so having comedy in the survival part was probably par for the course.

Just realized...

AC/DC sounds like soft-spoken thrash metal when you play it at double speed. If you get tired of one song, you can speed it up, and it'll be something that sounds entirely different. Usually, it just sounds like a sped-up song, but AC/DC just fits into it very well.

The point of separate bathrooms is so nobody gets exposed to parts they don't have. If your trouser trout is convex or concave, you go to that room. It shouldn't be a problem. The only people dying on this hill are SJWs who are probably neither transgender nor actually, legitimately depressed and/or have chronic pain and/or PTSD, who want to feel PC-justified by fighting this "Symbolic" battle. An actual pre-op transgender person probably spends about 30 minutes in a bathroom per day, 2 hours tops, maybe only 10 of those minutes they will spend in a segregated public bathroom. If you feel oppressed by that, you probably don't have that many other things to get upset about. There are better arguments you could be having.

I would love to do a European Sword fighting course! I have loads of old blades lying around here, including a 6 ft claymore with boar guards. There are some nifty YouTube vids on stuff you can do with them.

On the Eastern side, I have fiddled around with Haidong Gumdo (a Korean sword art) and have a giant no-dachi, which is completely awesome, yet totally useless for the sport haha! (Now, if I have to unhorse anyone in the near future, then I am well prepared...)  ;D

I think your claymore might actually an anti-cavalry/anti-spear sword. Claymores usually weren't any longer than a 4th grader because they were supposed to be two-handers that could be used for (defensive-ish) close-quarters combat in a pinch, I think. (Hence the leather grip/blunt edges on the bottom of the blade) Skallagrim's demonstrated that you can use normal two-handed swords for close quarters combat by half-swording and bashing and stuff, but I guess the Claymore works better because you can get more use out of the crossguard and therefore armor-prying and grappling techniques that were taught, instead of improvised/unoptimized movesets while you try to get in the good range again. But I'm no expert, I just listen to the theories of some experts on youtube and google.

Nice! Linky is not working for me, though.

Tried getting the link to work, but it just doesn't seem to. It's a list of sword treatises from Thearma. I usually read the viking Sagas, because they're entertaining, and some of the straight-up "Manual" manuals are kind of like reading about how to make mouth noises. I don't associate/translate instructional words to physical actions that well.

There's an 'unarmed' game dev who can't be doxed or SWATed, though! ^_^

Do you actually do sword-stuff, Sent? If so, what kind? I've never actually trained with anything sharp, it's been all waster, boffer, & foil so far. I did once have Elizabeth Moon show me how to hold a rapier... but again, a practice weapon of the not-sharp sort.

I have an older cousin of a friend who works as an actor/stunt guy for Medieval Times. He brings home old/blunted/broken stage and reenactment swords and sometimes tells us stuff about them, (usually when he thinks we're going to hurt ourselves by accident) but the extent of my knowledge on swords comes from Lindybeige and the free stuff you find around here. I don't understand any of the finer points, and my muscle memory isn't good enough to get down any higher form of fightery other than basic/obvious shit, but I get the theoretical uses for things like all the different guards. My area of expertise is hitting things that are thrown at me, though. Usually old basketballs and bike helmets. As awesome as wielding a two-hander would be in most other circumstances, and something I would actually love to do, I'm afraid its much lamer one-handed Espada counterpart is more practical when Farking up an attempt to play baseball. Those are the only two kinds of swords they seem to use at MT, but I'm not complaining, I get to play swords with my friend and his cousin.

Anyone who continues to doubt my ability to kick your ass IF and ONLY IF necessary... if cordially invited to Haven at Diva's of Noho, this Friday. Back corner. 18+, apparently. Again. I may or may not be there, as my other responsibilities permit.

A person always has the right to change their mind.

Wait a second, are we gamergate? Are you required to kick our asses in order to deter the other gamergate minions that we are thus far unaware of? Do people know whether they're gamergate or not, or do they have to be purged individually by people who for-sure aren't gamergate to save their non-souls? Are we challenged to a goth dance battle? Are heterosexuals allowed to join this dance battle or will we have to remain ambiguous in order to get in? Is this a dance battle? Shall we band together under the flag of Totila and make war with the preppy Roman posers!?

I have no serious idea what this post means, and it bothers me. But Gothic warfare would be nice right now. Or not, actually. A medieval dance battle, on the other hand...

...man, it's always a little weird to find one's issues reflected in fiction. By name, no less. Even if the issue's swapped and the pronouns are, too.

Fun to hear the gossip on the Scary Zombie Show (that I don't watch or play). Still hoping zombies will give way to Something Else soonish. Even the true fans have to feel like they're a little overplayed, right? Or is "human shaped monster" just fun forever? >_<

Human Shaped Monsters will be fun forever. Mankind has ruined itself, but also survived in part because of its ability to make enemies with itself. In the old days, there were monsters, and everyone who had beliefs that weren't yours was a heretic, or a witch, which is just a more corporeal form of demon when you consider all the shit that poorly educated peasants with wild imaginations will come up with. The Native Americans have the Wendigo, the Japanese have all kinds of vaguely humanoid things, the Europeans have vampires and werewolves, everyone has a witch or sorceror by some other name, and then there was the dirty Hun, and then there was the dirty Nazi, and now that we all have the ability to research our shit and realize that mostly everyone involved in wars is being an enormous asshole, our modern equivalent is the humble zombie.

Humanity should be able to make enemies. The ability for the brain to comprehend the concept protects us from dangerous animals and dangerous people, or things that just negatively impact the quality of our lives. The problem is, we're very defensive, so we seek enemies out, and it's sort of become a need for us. There was a Wild West Movie a long time ago where they let the bad guy live or something, because the people needed a villain in order to keep everyone rallied together and stop the frontier communities from falling apart. That's another thing monsters do, whether it's for entertainment purposes or from genuine fear, a monster brings people together, just as well and as quickly as a meal or a fantastic conversation*, and Zombies are like the universal monster, because unless you can cure them from their fully zombified state, you can battle them with reckless abandon and no moral qualms.

*Case in Point: Warrior Cats. Never before in site history have Aman and Naru been on the same team. Against Warrior Cats, that is...

I agree with both assessments, which is to say I'm also bad at FPS, & also Blizzard is, as they say, a 'working' woman. I've just decided that if my ENTIRE OFFICE is going to be playing a game, I want in. Early enough to kick everyone's ass. So this is our TF2 replacement, basically. ^_^

Wait, your office is trading out a mostly free, well-designed, moderately balanced teamwork simulator for a self-stacking Spaceninja pyramid of eternal climbing and downward pissing!? I mean, I know it's a more accurate representation of what actually happens in the workplace, but with the mount of salty tactics that kind of MMO encourages, you'll all be wishing you could still play TF2 eventually! Granted, TF2 is also full of salt and trollancy in pub servers, but if you have a good group together, I.E. an office with people you know....

Ohhhhh. Yeah, okay. Thought it was a TF2 joke. XD

Aaanyway, anyone else psyched for Overwatch? I'm waffling, but will probably just get the 'cheap' version. Been spending too much on things like the special addition of The Quiet Year. Worth it, but... yeah. Gotta keep my spending to a dull roar.

I dunno. It looks to be yet another infinite online Spaceninja Massive Multiplayer number-puncher riding in on the coattails of Warframe's """""""success""""""". If I'm going to go on a spaceninja quest with other players, I'd much rather play the one where I can give in to my crippling MMO farm addiction in ways cheaper than cocaine. Besides, coming from a company like Blizzard? They've always rigorously adhered to the First Law of MMOs, the bigger the company gets and the longer the game lasts, the more eager it will become to completely and utterly whore itself out for money. E.G. Runescape, Roblox, WoW, DOTA, The very concept of Evolve and MQFEL... Granted, they're still fun to play, but it gets really cringey with completely stupid/inane things, and/or things that used to be alright require godawful amounts of time and effort to get without money's assistance, and/or there are ads, and/or, in the worst case, it becomes a pay-to-win. Either way, it all detracts from the experience and eventually ruins the game for me.

There be monsters out there on the internet, Morgan! It's not really an irl societal thing, it's not really a group in and of itself. From what I heard, it was just a bunch of sociopaths on 4chan being sociopaths on 4chan because 4chan is Farking sociopathic and autistic fueled by internalized rage at their own useless, impotent, and horrifically entitled beings. And apparently one woman who makes video games sometimes dated one such sociopath, and didn't know how to respond to mass rage, and there began the biggest argument ever had under the guise of "ethics in video game journalism" wherein people realized that, big surprise, critics are biased. They are not the only horrifying side of the internet, and gamergate is not something that really highlights gender issues, it highlights human issues. Sure, there are sucky, misogynistic corners of the internet, sure, there are people that shut down goth nights at gay bars(?) but those are not the only sucky people. Everyone who is anyone on the internet is at risk of being attacked by extremists. That's just the way it is. On the other side of the spectrum, somebody was almost literally bullied to death by people who were upset about the fact that she made fan-art wrong. There was a guy who made an awkward video on the internet and is now receiving death threats because one guy made a "cringe reaction video" in response. Hell, there's even Chris-Chan, as un-sympathetic a figure as that racist idiot may be, he has been receiving death threats and all manner of irl harrassment since the dawn of his internet career. Hell, name a webcomic made by any male or female person that's been viewed by more than a thousand people, and you'll find that there are also a sea of people who personally hate their guts because they put something up on the internet that they don't like.

It's not a matter of sticking it to some vicious, monolithic organization that made a big enough stink to get mentioned on the news one time, though that may be your motivation, all this is about putting your face up on some corner of the internet and hopefully avoiding the opinionated hydra swarm of people who are just hateful in general. We aren't politicians here, and we aren't >moderately famous media makers. We're people who post on a small writing site and play games on forums. There will certainly not be a horde of stalkery beasts any time soon. And if there is, I'll eat all three of my tf2 hats.

I've often found that roosters are the little assholes. I could hang out with most of the chickens I've met all day, though, with few exceptions.

I'm pretty sure one of my friends drives a subaru legacy. (Judging from google images) They're pretty nice cars with nice interiors, and they feel pretty roomy too.

Man, it was a piece of junk, but it was my piece of junk.

Felt the same way about my first personal computer, and every sonic game I ever owned when I was young and starry-eyed.

Chickens are the best. They're like tiny R2-D2's made out of rubber and pipe-cleaners.

I love the steely sound of the guitar, man. Shit was sick.

I agree with Playa about the beginning, the riff was great, but it was kinda off because sometimes you would hold the note at a particular point or stop it for the same amount of time and go over to the next part indifferently.

^ what's scary about that is the people out there that get all hot and bothered from seeing it...

I could understand MLC porn more than the 'regular' variant. I mean, at least there's tentacles.

Nah, they should have good WiFi so you can game more and they ensure you are looked after as they need you 'level' for the tests so think of it as a week long holiday where you get fed, get free WiFi and usually get to wear snazzy blue gowns that are sure to be all the rage in 10 years

You can also get them to install a modem in your head for an extra $60. Granted, you do look like an H.R. Giger painting afterward, but you'll get 4 bars in the Sahara for no additional cost. *sigh* Decisions decisions...
