"And now they're comin' for your social security money, they want your fuckin' retirement money, they want it back. So they can give it to their criminal friends on wall street. And you know something they'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later, cause they own this fuckin' place, it's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club."
-George Carlin

So I picked up skyrim. It is fun so far. I made a half hour video, but it's only just beginning. I find it quite impressive, and enjoyed the early violence. I'm going to make a series of dark brotherhood videos. Although there's probably only 8 or 9 missions. Whatever. It seems good. Even at min settings the graphics were excellent, I am looking forward to playing the game at max. Right after I finish posting the first video and writing this, right now.
Yeah so if Herman Cain is elected, I'm going to refer to him as "President Rapist". So what was Israel crazy enough to do? I'm not sure, but it sort of looks like Israel just attacked Iran. A bunch of people were blown up at an ammunition depot. It looks like they killed a missile scientist. So either Israel just launched the fucking war, and they're bullshitting us, or else the fucking missile factory just bleeding spontaneously fucking exploded all on it's own! Maybe this won't start the war, but they're trying. These people are fucking crazy. The republicans are ALL in favor of world war 3 because we love Israel. And knowing Obama he'll probably compromise with them to win voters or something. I hate Israel. Just for the record if you start world war 3, wiping Israel off the map looks like a better and better idea. They are a puke of a country. They should be mopped up. Oh Jesus look what you've done. Look what you've done to my wonderful Skyrim review! You poisoned it. You just better fucking hope you get away with it this time and don't push any further. Jesus we just got out of 2 ten year wars and you want to start another one immediately. This is a nazi nation. Good nazi syndrome. So far were at about 1/4 of the holocaust. We are launching war after war after war, with a kind of satanic bloodlust. I hate Israel, they ruin everything, I hope their leaders are brought before the ICC and get what's coming to them. They are just stupid fascists, and really they're the last hold outs of fascism left on earth. I mean there are some crummy third world countries and arguably America but most of the rest of the world have outgrown murdering protesters, spraying white phosphorous on hospitals, making 5 million people live like dogs, and trying to start the next world war. But their tentacles stretch throughout the entire world, leaving little pockets of fascism in everywhere they find conservatism, but we are more civilized than that. You are fucking germany in the 1930's, that's where you want to stay, that's where you want to bring us back. Never forget, never shut up, do to them what was done to us, Für immer. Worst country ever. Jesus my beautiful skyrim review, YOU'VE MUTILATED IT!!... It's going to take me weeks to recover from this. ======================================================= So Skyrim is the real deal. I'm debating whether to put it at 9.6, where it is clearly better than most of them, or a 9.7, where dark souls clearly outclasses it. But who cares? It's fucking amazing. This is the state of the art. The apex. This is the game against which all other open world games will be judged for years. Graphically it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. In fact my computer is starting to make loud scary noises when I run the game. I'm terrified to even play it. But I really want to because it's an amazing game, and the graphics are a wonder. Hmm... I tried going to the city with the dark brotherhood quest. Until I ran into a giant, he sent me flying 200 feet into the air. Jesus... Need to level up or something. The dual wielded magic only did a few slivers of damage. It's fun... Except.... Unkillable npcs. I go to a town. Decide I want to kill the town. And kill most of them, except one of them is an unkillable npc, so they just cower on the floor for 35 seconds and then stand up and attack you again over and over like those reassembling skeletons from castlevania 3. But whatever, I reload the save, and leave, go wandering, find a tavern. I think, good, I'll kill the tavern. But one of them is an unkillable npc, no matter what you do you'll get busted by the cops. So I can't kill them either. I think they should have used morrowind's "Are you sure you want to kill this person and continue in a doomed world?" thing they had going on. This game, is to modern gaming, what morrowind was to it's generation. A revolution. It's simply incredible. I am in awe. I wish I had a better computer. Surely it will break if it keeps making noises like that over an extended period of time. Recording from the computer is almost out of the question. It worked half decently, but the game was choppy at times. I might actually use a camcorder to record the computer screen, as awkward and imperfect as that solution is. But if I have to fight giants like that just to get to the dark brotherhood quests, it might be a while before I post any new videos. Same for Dark Souls, nothing I can do there except the darkwraiths, leveling up, and the painted world. Need to level before I try the darkwraiths again, I've kind of hit a brick wall in that game. ======================================================= So it looks like Israel didn't "start the war" or anything. More like they were testing the waters. I was strung out on powerful prescription meds when I wrote that so anyway... Still I'd lay odds at 60% that it will happen within the next 5 or 6 years. Elect a republican, world war 3. Obama decides to compromise, world war 3. People are saying mean things about Israel, world war 3. I don't even know what the negative option is actually... Maybe Obama will stop bending over, but the odds of that are less than 10%. So I guess the remainder is made up of world opinion, liberals, jolem, and sanity. ======================================================= The cops are at it again. The occupy wall street encampment in Zuccotti park was cleared out. They tore down everything that had been built, and took everyone's personal belonging and sent them away in garbage trucks to the dump. In addition they also went on a little billy club and pepper spray rape spree, and arrested 70 protesters. I didn't think much of this movement. In fact I feel my initial criticisms are valid. This isn't fucking Egypt, this is America, you're going to have a hard time fixing this country. Nobody is going to stand up and say President Obama has to go.... I mean except the republicans. But it is clear that the government is taking this very seriously. They obviously consider the protests a serious threat to their interests and they're not above cracking a few skulls to drive them out. Skyrim. ======================================================= Also this is really pissing me off. Look at fucking Amy Goodman, using song after song after song in her little videos. Nobody is muting her. Nobody is cutting her down to 15 minute episodes of democracynow. She is successful enough that she is able to get permission to use the songs. How the fuck am I supposed to get permission from KMFDM to use one of their songs in a youtube video? So Amy Goodman can use whatever damn song she likes, but me and everybody else, get muted. That's why I think copyright laws should not apply to people's personal youtube accounts. As long as you're not making real money at what you do, you should be able to use any song you want. Once you're making money, from then on the laws would apply as normal. And it wouldn't be retroactive, you could still promote your early videos before you became a business. Seems sane to me. Then people could use songs in their LPs. Seems a fair compromise. Rather than Amy Goodman and her clique of 200 famous friends can use anything they want, but if you're a poor nobody, we will come down on you with the full force of the law. I think that's fucked.... ======================================================= Do you know what democracy is? I'll tell you. We're going to do what we want. You're going to protest it, you have the right to protest it, and we'll ignore you, and do it anyway. That's what democracy is. ======================================================= And I'll go you one further, when the whole fucking thing crumbles and burns and falls to pieces, and we set to work rebuilding the world, we should make America switch to a parliamentary system. Cause they're better. They're more about building support and working to make alliances rather than a two party system which is more about wrenching power out of the hands of your enemy and then like, lording it over them for 4 or 8 years. I think it would instantly civilize them. Skyrim. ======================================================= The Lynch Mob

60 cards ======================================================= The Goblins are performing well, generally if the opponent has a good deck they usually win, or it's close, and if they have a bad one, I generally win. It is a mid powered deck. Almost nobody concedes when they see a goblin, but it can hold it's own, and can even be quite powerful. I just had a match with some fellow, they won the first game, partly because I was confused by the ten card hand and 40 life, since the deck generally swarms early on and has very little late game. The second game doesn't count, when I saw that I could have more than 40 life I thought he would be playing at max so he had 40 and i had 99. Then I won the third match. So I guess it was a draw. I only won because of goblin king, you don't even notice the mountainwalk, but that saved my life. It's the only reason I could win. He was playing a bit of red. Otherwise he would have steamrollered me. It's a half decent deck. A good casual deck. Got most of my ideas watching people in the tournament room in this weird goblin vs goblin legacy match. The deck costs next to nothing and it performs well. I made it because when I played the Eldrazi deck I started getting tired of being swarmed by goblins on turn 3 or 4 before I could do anything. So I tried to do that. It can win on turn 4 or 5, but even in a drawn out match it can often prevail. A few goblin piledriver wouldn't hurt, but they're a bit expensive, maybe later. The lackey is awesome. If you get that turn 1, and they don't have a creature out on turn 2, turn 2 Siege Gang Commander. You go from there. Aether Vial is particularly helpful. Damnation I win but who cares I like it. (Then I sold 1 oath of druids and bought 4 goblin piledriver.)
Also, I find this extremely embarrassing, when I'm playing a match with someone, and they say good game, so I type good game, but they concede the second I press return and I instantly quit the match. So it looks like I'm just rudely quitting without saying anything at the first opportunity, rather than thanking them for the game and then leaving. So to the person I did that to, sry. Plus the goblins suck. They lose to practically everyone. It's like 30% win.
Also I like that these video game reviews are 70% politics 20% magic the gathering 5% compiling lists of people that need to be killed, and 5% videogame reviews. I like that. I feel it's justified because I made so many LP videos. I'll repost the hidden video, without the racy bits, and maybe it will show up on my channel. See ya. ======================================================= So I tried Saints Row 3, did a couple of missions, it's pretty fun. I'm not going to devote a whole review to it, but I will use this place as a dumping-ground whenever I have something to say about saint's row. And I might even make a Saint's Row video. It's not my top priority, but it is something I would like to do. ======================================================= Also, Occupy Wall Street is a bit clunky to say, so from now on I'm just going to call them "The Marxists". Nothing wrong with communists. I support the Marxists. ======================================================= So when I was testing my new deck this guy was talking a lot of smack about it. But I say who is the bigger fool, the fool or the fool that loses to him in a children's card game? Twice.
Skyrim? Skyrim is amazing. It's my all time second favorite game. It's perfect, it's beautiful. So much to explore. I didn't even bother not watching spoilers, because there's so much to do that everybody playing the game is doing something different. Bethesda should give themselves a pat on the back. Wow.... AMAZING....
It's kind of like walking around in a group of seven painting. And it trumps pretty much any painting you can name, in terms of skill, and beauty. Anyone can paint a mountain, but it takes 200 geniuses and master artists doing the best work of their lives to make something like this. This game is God. It's stunning. The detail, the richness of the world. Hundreds and hundreds of sidequests and stories. These people even sat around writing hundreds of books scattered around the place. It is a perfect fantasy world crafted with the skill of 17 tolkiens. This game and Dark Souls are the best thing ever. All other videogames should be ashamed. I have no idea how they're going to top this. Buy these games. Beatnik, I'm sorry if I've been annoying you. I just love your videos so much I can't stop commenting, even if I'm too scared to read your replies. Look, I think you should take a break. Dark Souls is obviously stressing you out. Play Catherine or Skyrim or something for a while. Dark Souls isn't going anywhere. Just a suggestion, do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. I was overjoyed to hear you read Nietzsche. You're one of the only people who might actually understand my reversal of the Nietzschian overman with Der Untermensch GOTY. I've found the perfect synopsis, when I was reading over nazi propaganda with the same name as my book. When I read that I nearly lost my shit. It's PERFECT. Could not have said it better myself if I spent 3 years trying. I'm overjoyed. Our CUp RuNnETH OVeRrRRR!!! ======================================================= So I was thinking about Black Lotus, and how broken it is. Without even thinking:
Turn 1 Swamp, Dark Ritual, Black Lotus sac for 3 red mana, grindstone, painter's servant, activate grindstone. Game over.
It's still subject to the limitations of that specific plan, if he had emrakul it wouldn't work without for instance leyline of the void, but the power is insane. All the power 9 cards were so broken. Time walk 1 blue mana to take an extra turn after this one. I don't even know what the fuck they were smoking when they thought that up, but send me some. Ancestral recall is .... I'm not even going to talk about that. It's not as bad as some of the other cards. Mox is just insane, let's leave it at that. Insane. Insane. If they tried that shit today they would be shot, on sight. They obviously didn't even understand the game they had created yet.
I'm thinking about making my own cards with that card builder site.
"My Black Lotus 0
Black Lotus is a Black Lotus. Black Lotus is restricted."
I'd be more interested in creating my own cards than buying actual magic cards. The game is so compicated now that only a computer can properly understand it. Online is superior in every way. Ban Black Lotus and the power 9, restrict a few things, and you have classic. ======================================================= I was happy to see that The Rum Diary was made into a movie. I personally identified with a character in that book. Hunter's unpublished first try is better than anything I will ever write. I believe my book is good enough to be published, when it's done I'm going to start looking for an agent. I try to explain this to my mother, but at the mere mention of the book her face fills with terror, and she immediately begins tuning out everything I say until, mercifully, I stop. She believes that I am quite insane. But I know it's good.
In the Rum Diary, hunter was friends with a young journalist, whose woman he later steals. They both worked at a newspaper in some obscure island city. So hunter's friend was assigned by the editor to write a story about why people are leaving the island. The boy slaved away at the story for weeks and weeks, it was getting overdue, until finally, he was finished. He had written about 40 pages and excitedly showed them to hunter. He read them, and at first it didn't seem to make sense, it was just page after page of interviews with people leaving the island. But he kept reading. And when he was finished he had a good understanding of the issue. So later on in the story, hunter is talking with the editor about the article.
Hunter is trying to explain it to him. The editor is like "It's garbage, he just interviews people for 40 pages. How can I put that in a newspaper?" Hunter says "Well you could break it up into pieces." The editor scoffs and says "It's the most mind numbing crap I've ever read. It's gibberish. I tried reading it, I couldn't get past the second page!" Hunter says "You know what, go to hell. I quit."
This book didn't come from nowhere, it is the product of society. It is a museum of the 21st century's forgotten useless trash. A monument to the stupidity of the people, the politics of the time, and the culture. Every worthless thing they have brainwashed us about over the last 7 years is here forever frozen in time. And the only redeeming thing they ever created, their videogames, are covered here better than anywhere else I am aware of, in meticulous detail. The entire renaissance, from start to finish.
They will do anything to keep me down, to rob me of what is mine. In any world with real worth my greatness would have been rewarded and nurtured, instead of quashed. I should live in a mansion, with 17 girlfriends, making 200 million dollar videogames. The best videogames ever made. Instead the greatest whores live in those houses. Leonardo DiVinci is living in a ratty apartment full of brain damaged hungarians that play their idiotic music at max volume through an open door from 11pm to 4am. And yes I am a little megalomaniacal.
You think my fascism is something terrible, something to be avoided, no, it is paradise. I would cut through all the red tape to get to the core of what you really want. The criminals would all be jailed, but that's just the start. You would have someone that was really listening to you. Someone working for you. In 4 years you'd have everything you ever dreamed of. You'd be wondering, "What's next?"
You say I am not even worth mentioning, and at the same time you interview skinhead nazis, the implication being that I am even worse than they are. It'll be just like Dark Souls, the same right wing shit. What? Oh nothing nevermind. ======================================================= Whenever I hear someone advocate in favor of torture, I think that it should be tried on them. I'd like to make a Capsize/Doubling Cube deck. But I can't get it right. It needs too much mana to be practical. Here's one I was considering:
3 jace the mind sculptor 4 mana drain 4 cryptic command 4 vedalken shackles 4 doubling cube 4 capsize 3 high tide 3 mystical tutor 1 tinker 1 tolarian academy 2 blightsteel 4 ornithopter 4 phyrexian walker
20 lands
60 cards
It needs 4 cranial plating, and as you can see, it doesn't quite work. No win condition except blightsteel, unless there was cranial plating, but I can't find anything that could be replaced. Without a few maps the academy isn't practical. I don't know how to make capsize/doubling cube work. I got it down to 8 mana with high tide, but by then the game is often over. I've seen it work. 90 blue mana bouncing every single thing the person played including lands. But no win condition.
======================================================= So Rob Fucking Ford is evicting the marxists camped out here in Toronto. Mike Rivero was right, if your right to free speech is conditional on the approval of the government, then it's not really a right, it's a privilege doled out to a particularly obedient slave. I hate Anonymous. You don't like sony's behaviour, so you shut down playstation network for 2 months and ruin millions of people's fun. Yeah thanks, I really appreciate you helping me out like that. That said, you threatened to take down government sites if they evict the marxists from Toronto. By all means, make good on that threat. Chop away. These people are total assholes. ======================================================= I don't even want to talk about this. You said the polar bears can't be threatened by their habitat disappearing because, polar bears can swim. That's classic jolem logic. That's their answer to a scientific consensus. Even though they're almost endangered, they can't be killed by destroying their habitat, because polar bears are fish. They're also fish you see. Destroy the place they live, and they'll just swim around in the ocean for the rest of their lives. Global warming doesn't exist, because Al Gore. But that is fine, the jolem will get what's coming to them some day. My experiments on them will continue as scheduled. But don't listen to me, by all means, stock up on guns, spend all your money on rations for the coming apocalypse, buy a geodesic biodome, take lots and lots of heart & body extract.... Profit. ======================================================= So the pigs raided the marxists again and they.... They kicked a pregnant woman in the stomach and then doused her in the face with pepper spray. She had a miscarriage. They just use that shit on anyone they feel like now, for any reason they want. Hey there's a pregnant woman *kick* *spray*. I suppose suggesting prosecutions would elicit nothing but laughter at this point, but there should be like, 200 cops in prison for assault. People talk about non violence. How it's a non violent movement. That is the morally superior road to take, and the most expedient method of reaping the highest gain at the lowest cost. But when they're raping you, and humiliating you for fun, kicking pregnant women in the stomach, and shooting you in the head with rubber bullets and tear gas, you are 100% justified in responding with violence. And I'm back to talking about the guillotine again. ======================================================= You don't believe me? Fine, I will detail a few of the gifts I will give you for electing me fuhrer. How about single payer health care? Yeah you'd like that. How about legalized weed? Well in fairness that's actually a gift for me. But anyway. Strict regulation of wall street. Free housing, free education, free food. Decent stuff too, not the low grade shit they give away right now. If you're a pot smoker, I don't see why you shouldn't get a few ounces a month as a stipend from the government. That's just some of them. And of course all your enemies would be in prison for the laws already on the books. And in return I'd kill less than 200 people a year. Most likely significantly less. ======================================================= And just for the record, I'm not a complete idiot. That was intended to be a joke. I realize that a run down apartment and exile from the female sex are exactly what I deserve. And if I were to become more valuable to society then the money and the women would directly follow. That said, I'm still bitter. ======================================================= For the fame junkies, this is a huge propaganda victory. But I don't enjoy watching you get your heads clubbed in again and again. I want you to stand up. I want to make the bastards pay. You have a right to defend yourself. But if it ain't broke, don't fix it. You're doing very well. You're ten cracked skulls away from victory. ======================================================= Sorry this review has had even less to do with the game than usual. My apartment building flooded and the power went out, and I wasn't able to play any games for several days. So it's just been pure politics. But I promise I will make a dark brotherhood video tomorrow and post it soon after. ======================================================= Ok so Skyrim? Awesome game. Awesome. What do I miss? Levitation. That was the most fun part of Morrowind, would have been unreal in Skyrim. That makes me sad. ======================================================= So there was a quote from stephen harper that, obviously, pissed me off quite a lot:
"No, it will not happen under our government. We're strongly opposed to the legalization of drugs. Obviously, we're very concerned about the spread of drugs in the country and the damage it's doing to our kids and as you know we've got legislation before the House [of Commons] to crack down, specifically, on drug traffickers. Won't somebody please think of the children!!" - Stephen Harper
So that pissed me off. That annoyed me. I'm not a child Mr. Harper, nor do I appreciate being treated as one. Society should not be structured around what is appropriate for a child. If that's what you want, then I would advise you to move to Disneyland, and you'd probably be a lot happier there. Then you can ban alcohol, pornography, and R rated movies while you're at it and no one will care, but please stop fucking up my perfectly good country. Canada used to be the crown jewel of socialism. Right when we were just about to legalize pot, Harper takes power and shuts it down. And has subsequently gotten us kicked off the security council, which made harper happy. And incrementally tweaked the whole damn country a bit to the right. He's trying to turn us into America. I don't represent that. I resent that. I despise that. I'm a grown man, if I want to smoke weed in the privacy of my own home, frankly, that's none of your business. I'm tired of suffering for your moral bullshit. I'm sick of being denied my freedom. But I mean there are some dangers to the kids. If they smoke pot there's a danger they won't get cancer. If they overdose on pot, there's a possibility nothing will happen. And the most horrifying thing of all, one day kids are smoking pot, the next, they're voting NDP. It's horrible. It makes those videogames, and music and movies so good, they'll just sit around all day and never get a job!! It's gonna fuck up the economy. It's the apocalypse...
- Stephen J. Righteous Hypocrite, 1962 ======================================================= So, just to get it on the record, did you see that pig with his fire extinguisher full of pepper spray spraying about nine peaceful marxists sitting in a row? It's like, pepper spraying one person doesn't give me enough personal gratification, I need to pepper spray like 9 people at once. It's like watching a guy eat nine cheeseburgers, it's grotesque.
If you dig a hole deep enough, eventually you will have an underground fortress. ======================================================= Some people are saying that the marxists are breaking the law. And that's part of the problem. Yes the marxists are breaking like park ordinances, and the people that crashed the world economy for personal gain didn't break a single law. They walked away millionaires and billionaires, then took the bailout money and spent it on bonuses. The police are breaking far more serious laws than the protesters, with impunity. See the whole thing is fucked up on a fundamental level. Skyrim. ======================================================= Jesus, this review has nothing to do with Skyrim. At all. First paragraph "AAAGH JEEZ ISRAEL IS INVADING IRAN BLAH BLAH!!" Skyrim is amazing. It deserves better than this. I mean I've done almost 3 hours of videos so far, fair enough, but I need this review to at least slightly be about Skyrim. I'm avoiding the dark brotherhood missions right now so I can mess around on my own. Joined the thieves guild, meh. Joined the mages guild, going to wander around there for a while. In it's own way it's almost as substantial as Dark Souls. It's quite an achievement. The graphics are spectacular as well. Very good game. You can't heap enough praise on it. Also messing around a bit with the binding of isaac. I'm going to do a one shot video and splice that with the painted world of ariamis. See ya. ======================================================= Ok, you know what I have to do? I'm going to demote super meat boy by two points, then I'm going to put The Binding of Isaac in it's place because it is a far better game. That's not what I meant when I said a randomly generated zelda, but damn... Also I'm going to have to promote Yakuza 3 significantly if I haven't done so already. It has to be at least as high as Mafia 2, or higher. ======================================================= So, an interesting little proposal has passed the senate, if I understand it, with bipartisan support. Obama threatens to veto the bill, which is bizarre because I assumed the bastard would be spearheading it. What does it say? The government can detain anyone suspected of terrorism, without due process, anywhere in the world, indefinitely. The entire world is a battlefield including America. Now them's fightin' words. Let me assure you, if you do that, you are in for a long war. The shitty little irish people will be putting bombs in your mailboxes for the next sixty years, until you are bankrupted and you lose. You will be a modern day british empire.... JEsus AAAAAAAAGH!! OH GOD WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!! LOOK!!! LOOK IT!! DO YOU SEE WHAT THEY DID?!?! This is a fucking Skyrim review.
It won't even let me write about Skyrim, now it wants me to write:
"I don't really give a shit what you do to yourself or other people, just keep your grubby mitts off Canada."
I haven't progressed in Skyrim yet, I'm starting to wonder if february is too optimistic for these two fucking reviews. I've played dark souls for like 110 hours, and I'm half done. Skyrim? That's a game that I could probably play for six months and not see everything, Bethesda went ape shit on that game.
It still won't let me talk about Skyrim. Now it wants me to write, in reference to the shitty irish people:
"They really hate that shit, and they'll probably be elected."
It wanted me to ruin a perfectly good paragraph by editing that in somewhere. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go play The Binding of Isaac. ======================================================= I dreamt I used a Tarmogoyf.... But it was really weird, I summoned it with a card like magic the gathering, but the world looked more like the dark souls graphics, and I knew that the Tarmogoyf would disappear after about a minute, like Skyrim. ======================================================= So if Dark Souls is giving you trouble, here is my advice. Up until you do something with the lordvessel, just kill the red guy in new londo ruins, take his key, drain the lake. Down there in the ruins, you'll find the meanest, nastiest enemies in the game so far. Right where you see the first ghost in new londo, rather that going up the stairs, there's a place where you can just drop down to the darkwraith area. If you want you can just run past them to the boss. Put on the covetous gold serpent ring, and farm them. An upgraded chaos fireball should do the trick. You'll get titanite chunks. They drop that shit like crescent moon grass. Then take the weapon of your choice, upgrade it to lightning +4 ..(???).. Profit.
I have to fight the 4 kings now, nothing else to do except leveling. Got a lightning whip +4, my lightning washing pole +4, and a lightning claymore +4. I could probably win, but I'm just terrified....
I really like the game. A game that I can play for 110 hours just so it can tell me that I'm 60% done, that's a masterpiece. It's my favorite game ever. :( ======================================================= Hmm.... I downloaded some mods for skyrim that are just too much fun. I got the nude females mod, and the killable children mod, which both appear to work without a hitch. I won't be able to show the nude females on youtube, but the killable children are fair game, that's going in the next video. ======================================================= Heheheh.... The republicans have been imploding one after another. The only one they have left is Newt Gingrich. If we can just get rid of him, they'll have nobody left except Mitt Romney and Ron Paul. Heheheh.... I was going to wait for Gingrich to implode before writing this joke, but there is the possibility that he might not, and I don't want to lose the joke. Anyway....
The Dark Brotherhood quests are a lot of fun. I think they will make for some decent videos. I am also curious about the Mage's Guild. But I'm still locked into dark souls. I'm hooked. I wish I could just play through to Lost Izalith right now, but making a video is a great deal of effort. Nothing to report in Skyrim. I could probably kill Seath the Scaleless right now, maybe even first try if I strategize, but I don't care about that. I have to cut off the tail. It has an A rating in.... something. I don't care. Anyway. ======================================================= One world whey. Did you catch that? "One World" Whey. Do you know why it says that? Because they're part of the conspiracy. Step one, they get you eating one world whey, Step two, police state. ============================================================== Al Gore.... Do you want to know how you can help stop global warming? Kill yourself. Just kill yourself right now. Then the jolem will lose their favorite weapon, and maybe we can actually get something done. If you can't do that at least have the decency to change your name to "Red Herring". ======================================================= I don't mean to be weird about this. But I can't believe I missed those internet props. I was there, I had the answer, I was first. But then at the last minute I thought I had it wrong and didn't... Like.... If I had a choice between meeting the entire cast of star trek and getting all their autographs, or those internet props, I'd take the props like 20 times over. :S Well whatever. My mistake. um.... Please keep making those Skyrim videos. It's potentially even better than heavy rain. Also I miss dave. ======================================================= "Democracy does not equal legality. A nation can choose to engage in a criminal action. The fact that they elected their government is of no relevance." -Benjamin Franklin ======================================================= Even in Morrowind I wanted to join the dark brotherhood. And was disappointed when I realized I couldn't. And I was a lot happier with the Dark Brotherhood Quests in Oblivion than the weird honor based hits in Morrowind. Although there was a sick kind of fun in murdering people in full view of public and when they ran up to arrest you just handing the guards a note that says to leave you alone.
If you're wondering what that drawing is, it's the design doc. For the tower of babel. I'm really looking forward to finishing this game so I can move on to a serious project. I like this game but it is just intended to be a funny south park style parody. I want to make a real game with what I've learned. It would be more open world. I could make it completely open world, but I'm thinking of more of a demon's souls style nexus with about 6 worlds. You live in the tower of babel, and each world you finish advances the story by one variable and changes everything in babel accordingly. So the plot can be skipped if you wish. My goal is to make a new shin megami tensei game in ff6 snes style graphics. It would retain the core aspects of the game. The tower that is in almost every game. The leveling of attributes like charm, courage, and academics. Spell names. Probably some dating sim aspects, but it would be a new game. Inspired by the games, but unique and self-contained. I think I could make a half decent game. But I must finish this first, and the final city is the most ambitious. It's a lot of work. But it will be half decent. It's already half decent. It will be good. Not compared to the professionals, but better than most old snes rpgs. If I had released this game in 1993, it would have been god. And by now I'd be worth millions and working for a major development company, and more importantly would have already created my evil dismemberment game, and then all other game developers would have had to abandon morality or become obsolete. Well kinda... I'd have created a niche. It wouldn't take over the market, but it would advance it. And as for my rmxp game, for one person designing, writing, coding, playtesting, and doing all the art work, by myself, I think it's pretty damn good.
In the next game I want to implement night and day, weather, and various other features. I've played it recently, and it has some elasticity to it. There are actually many different paths and choices. Nothing major, but enough to experiment a bit. I hope I can get it hosted in the archive. That would be an honor. ======================================================= Dagger of Greed

"Good game." -Last words of target opponent. ======================================================= ======================================================= ======================================================= Also considering, when sword of insane greed enters the battlefield, target chuck norris becomes a 1/1 blue frog with no abilities for the next three turns. This targeting cannot be prevented by protection. Sword of insane greed may enter the battlefield at any time without paying it's mana cost if chuck norris is on the battlefield. (This ability may be played from your library, hand, or from outside the game.) ======================================================= So, on your recommendation I checked out Dark Chiron. He's pretty cool. He appears to be doing a let's play of Deus Ex 1. Very stylish. Sadly he isn't murdering all the kids and homeless people and stuff.... *sigh*.... One of these days I'll have to make a Deus Ex 1 let's play just so I can show people the correct way to play that game. Well anyway, Dark Chiron is awesome. But he is also like one of those 16 foot subs they serve sometimes at parties. Far too much sandwich for one person to eat. But I will certainly have a piece or two. Um..... *grumble*..... See you around. ======================================================= So, um, at first I worried I might have overrated Skyrim a bit, got swept up in the excitement you know.... But with the killable children mod and the improved nude females, this is the coolest thing ever. It's pretty much everything I ever wanted out of a game. It's not quite dark souls, but dark souls is the sistine chapel. Dark Souls is a game that's better than anything you could want or imagine. Skyrim, with these mods, is everything I've ever wanted in a game. Oh a game with nudity and killable kids, sure that would be fun. Skyrim with it, now that's a game. Like I said I want a real game with stuff like that, not one that set out from the beginning to offend. Like Postal 3, which looks fun, but it will never be this.... I wish I could show this stuff on youtube. Damn nudity rules. ======================================================= It's fucking.... It's vulnerable to milling!! And knowing these people, that's just the start. Even now that I changed the wording, it's better, but if they have leyline of the void or tormods crypt, or even.... nihil spellbomb, game over. I could make another gain five life opponent loses five life exile it thing, but honestly that can't become a bandaid solution every time I encounter a problem or the card will be destroyed. I could go 1W or just... 1: Exile target permanent. That would solve the problem for good. In fact it would solve it too well. It would change the entire card. It just goes to show how convoluted this game really is, and like I said this is only the beginning. Yeah I'd still run it, it's the apocalypse. Actually it's not much different than marit lage, it just seems that way at first.
I'd run it in a master transmuter, tinker, stoneforge mystic deck.... hmm anyway. If it weren't for cards like that, the cost would almost balance it. It's just a big emrakul. ======================================================= I am looking forward to the Skyrim Creation Kit. I don't recall if I ever explained in detail what happened during my experiments with the fallout 3 GECK. Hoping to recreate my easy success spawning crazily high powered items out of thin air in morrowind, and not wanting to spend weeks and months sifting through technical manuals explaining the program, I stupidly attempted to figure it out through trial and error. I was running the child killer mod in fallout 3 as well. So the first natural step seemed to be creating a child inside the city which I would then kill. Somehow I managed to do it without knowing anything about the extremely technical professional design tool, and I created a child inside the city.... The one you nuke if you like. But I immediately encountered a problem. The child would spawn inside the house as intended. But because I hadn't programmed any brains for it the damned thing would immediately run out of the house, then run out of the city, and wander into the wilderness never to return. Which, naturally, did not leave me much time to kill the child. But in another bizarre quirk of AI, the people in the city did not share the programmer's moral objections to killing the children. And in fact because they didn't register the kid as part of the city, the citizens would just go "YEEEAAH!!!" when I killed them. Very bizarre.
This time I will study a bit before I start working with the program. If it is not beyond the abilities of one untrained gamer working on their own, I will totally make a series of childkiller "missions". The comical potential is, staggering.
Dude I could call it "The Darker Brotherhood". ======================================================= Me: Mr Ebert, let me ask you this, do you like videogames? Ebert: No. Me: So do you not like videogames because they aren't art, or are they not art because you don't like them? What is art Mr. Ebert? Ebert: Don't be ridiculous, everybody knows what art is. Me: So movies are art but videogames aren't? Ebert: Yes. Me: Why? Why are movies art? Ebert: Because they're the creative act of individuals. They're works of beauty, of the heart. They're a means of expressing something. Me: What about books? Books inside videogames. What are they? Ebert: If a book is a book it's art, if you put a book inside a videogame it stops being art. It's just that simple. Me: (puts pillow over ebert's face) ... ... ... ======================================================= So.... Strangely, Let's Play Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha Vs The Soulless Army (BLIND) is actually the most popular thing I've ever done. I had no idea, and while making them was convinced they were all doomed to 4 hits each forever. Jesus and that's the one I canceled. Apparently it's your favorite one. The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles probably doesn't even add up to one episode of devil summoner. Same with Dark Souls or Catherine. Wow, maybe I should play through ten hours of it again just to restart the series, if that's your favorite one. I kind of feel like a shithead for just canceling it... Hmm.... Give it a while. I'll consider it. Check out the dark brotherhood chronicles, it's not half bad, watch chapter 7. So anyway, Skyrim is done. I'll be playing it for months, but no more videos. Back to Dark Souls, even though I still have a good deal of grinding to do before anything happens. I will retain this review as my primary dumping ground until such time as Dark Souls is completed. I'll still update the Dark Souls review, but when I want to rant about anything, I will bring that here. Minor reviews will also be brought here. My work is almost complete. Nothing will change, life will continue as normal, but it will be done. ======================================================= Oh and props to Bethesda for making everyone in Skyrim Bisexual. I was worried that my female character would be restricted to dating a bunch of dudes, but that is not a problem. Women will marry women, women will marry men, men will marry women, men will marry men. Props. ======================================================= Well I was going to congratulate Obama on vetoing the nazi war criminal bill, but apparently when he realized that a plurality of his supporters agreed with him, he immediately changed his mind.
I have been getting into german bands. Because the germans always get things at least two decades slower than the rest of us, for them, it's still 1989. So even though rock has died, the germans are so behind the times that their music is still good. ======================================================= Ron Paul is surging in Iowa. I want two candidates. I win VS I win. I don't want the republicans to be invited to the next election. I want them going "I HAVE no candidate!!"
You know what's going to happen if Ron Paul gets the nomination right? The republicans are all going to support Barack Obama. If he gets elected his own senators and congressmen will unite to destroy him. Just saying... ======================================================= So here's one thing I can't show on youtube. You can kill women, take off their clothes, and then reanimate them to smite your enemies. Then they melt.... I was going to say the only thing preventing it from being perfect was no dismemberment.... It's a perk, decapitation. And you can collect the heads and leave them around your house. Awesome... ======================================================= It's a shame bill hicks died when he did. What did he like he liked Clamlappers and Sonic Hedgehog. He would have fit right in here. Would bill hicks have liked unlimited free pornography from home? Yeah I think he might have found a use for that. And if he liked Sonic Hedgehog, he would have lost his shit when he saw Skyrim. And we all missed out.
Know what I'd like to see? I'd like to see Mojang Specifications bought out by Bethesda. For them to be like "Notch we all love you here, so we're going to give you all the money and programmers you need, and we just want you to make the game of your dreams." That would be cool. What is more impressive? Minecraft's randomly generated worlds, or Skyrim's meticulously handcrafted little nation? They are both good. I would like to see the best of both worlds. ======================================================= I wonder what happens at the end of persona 3. The main character is obviously not around after that. So I'm thinking, either he gives his life for the sins of humanity, or else he's totally the ultimate evil and he murdered Yukari's dad and fucked with Mitsuru's head ======================================================= I was considering what Dark Souls represents in a historical perspective, and I decided that it is Castlevania 3. But if Dark Souls is Castlevania 3 then Skyrim is Fallout 2. It took a long time, but we finally have a game that is more hardcore than Fallout 2. Sure it took 3 mods to get there. Who cares? It is the ultimate game. Lately I've just been wandering around stealing everyone's food and books. I was actually considering if I should rate it higher than Dark Souls. The answer is no, but as much as I expected Skyrim to be amazing, I never thought I would wander into my dream game. I can't even suggest anything they should have added. It is perfect. ======================================================= There's a scandal about Ron Paul. Apparently a Ron Paul supporter said some very naughty things in 1982. I don't know what the story is, because I only heard about it from the jolem, and they're dishonest as shit about certain ideological issues, Ron Paul being one of them. They spent so much time telling me their take on the topic, they neglected to mention the topic. So I don't know, and yes I'm too lazy to look it up. I would no doubt find the exact quote very amusing. Dude, stop at this one, we were only telling you to destroy them all cause they were getting in the way of this guy. Don't just destroy everyone at random, until there's nobody left but Mitt Romney. We've trained you too well. Stop at this guy, and we'll have an election. ======================================================= So something just occurred to me. And I may be wrong on this, but I think there aren't any asians in Skyrim. And it's not for lack of diversity, they have all kinds of people.
Imperials - White People Breton - White People Redguard - Black People Nords - Scotsmen
Not to mention High Elves Dark Elves Wood Elves Orcs Lizardmen and Catpeople. I think they just forgot them. It's also possible that the main character can be made to resemble asian, but that the idea was never mass produced. So I'll keep an eye out on that and report back if I see any asians. ======================================================= I've been playing through some ancient ps1 games. I have decided that the best game on playstation is Alundra. There are many fine titles. But Alundra destroys all of them. When playing Final Fantasy 9 I remember thinking that the strength of an old rpg is how quickly it provides a save point, because it's so terrible you want to play it, save as quickly as possible, and quit. Which FF9 maddeningly refused to do, resulting in me quitting the game out of frustration, and then facing the prospect of doing it all over again. Lunar, first five seconds, save point. There were lots of strong titles, your resident evils, your parasite eves, your silent hills. There were lots of good rpgs. Your xenogears chrono cross suikoden 2 lunar grandia vagrant story breath of fires. R-Type Delta remains playable. I will never play final fantasy tactics again under any circumstances. In a modern climate symphony of the night has become intolerably bad. I'm going to do a video on Bushido Blade, Tenchu Stealth Assassins, and the Centipede Demon. But in all of that, even after so many years of evolution, Alundra kept my attention for an hour, and I intend to play it further after writing this. I grew overjoyed as I realized that not only had I played it, but that I had gone crazy for this game. Truly, this was a game that knew it's limits. It wasn't trying to be final fantasy. It didn't contain more still painted images than the Louvre. It was not trying to work in 3 dimensions it did not understand. It achieved a mastery of the 2D top down exploration rpg that could only be reached on the playstation. It plays like the merger of Final Fantasy 6 and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. However it tramples both of them. In story. In the resilience of the combat engine. It simply plays better than Zelda. The combat is more fluid, and natural. It is similar to Zelda, only in the sense that it is far far better than it. It is the best top down zelda type game that I am aware of. The story is also much much cooler that your zeldas or your final fantasies of the time. Tame by today's standards, but quite dark and epic for it's own time. And full of Anime to boot. I am very happy that I don't remember the story, what I've seen, in context, is absolutely superb. Two warring gods fighting over their celestial pawns. A villain that I really like as a person who wants to wipe out humanity. Promises of an increasingly twisted story. I am a happy man. It is the only PS1 game I have found that is still playable today. And it is very playable. My second favorite is Persona 2 both of them, but even that is a little hard to stomach today. ======================================================= Here is something I was considering briefly. The idea sprung from the notion of what if you just had a deck that was 100% removal with no win condition at all. Just taking everything off the board, and continuing the game indefinitely until your opponent leaps over the table and punches you in the face. But after thinking it over I eventually threw in stuffy doll and guilty conscience as a win condition. I haven't even tested this. I don't want to test this. This is worse than playing blue counterspells. Also Jesus burn for the win. ======================================================= Control
White Spells: Wrath of God x3 Day of Judgment x4 Prison Term x2 Oblivion Ring x4 Unmake x4 Disenchant x4 Journey to Nowhere x4 Swords to Plowshares x4 Guilty Conscience x4
Artifacts: Stuffy Doll x4
Land: Karakas Plains x22
60 cards ======================================================= The god argument is already over. It has been over since Darwin, and at this point we are just Pwning you. Evolution is a fact, proven a thousand times over, our DNA is 98% the same as an ape, less so than other animals, less so than others after that. But even a tomato is still related to you, however distantly. Once you accept the science as true, the question becomes twisting genesis to somehow be a metaphor for evolution. But the bible has nothing to do with that. He just created everything in 6 days with magic powers and then talked about how awesome it was. It's got nothing to do with random mutation and natural selection. If you twist the science to mean genesis, you've already thrown the entire book out anyway. And if we discover some day that the universe was actually made by a cheese sandwich you'll all go "Hmm... Of course, it was a cheese sandwich, just like it says in genesis, it's so obvious now." But you go there. You accept evolution but retreat to abiogenesis and the creation of the universe. Great, now all I have to do is figure out how the universe was created to prove you wrong. Is that all? I'll go do that. ======================================================= Played a bit of Persona 2 Eternal Punishment. I would play through Innocent Sin first, but I had already played it on the other computer for about 4 hours and didn't want to commit to playing that much of the same material, so I tried eternal punishment. I have no idea what the fuck is going on... But it's very interesting. I wish I'd played Innocent Sin just so I understood some of this... Well whatever. Cool game... Weird thing. Apparently my two most popular videos are farming the crow for colorless demon's souls, and mephistopheles ring quest and end game. Which I made with very little effort and never looked back. I guess they work well in a search engine or something. Not that they were bad videos, but I didn't know they were 1, 2 and 20 thousand hit material. You people are... strange.... ======================================================= So what happened with Postal 3? I mean it's obvious that it's a total pile of crap, but it was supposed to be released on steam in December, steam deleted the page for it and has no release date. It's not on Gamespot, IGN, Metacritic. You can buy a copy direct from the company, if you're retarded. Did the game do something you didn't like? Is it really like.... Lower than Duke Nukem Forever territory here? Jesus. Glad I didn't bet heavily on that one. All of my major predictions came true this year. It was a bad year for everyone, except me. But that annoys me. Because Postal 2 was kind of fun. Even the pirates don't know what to make of it. What a disappointment, what a horrible failure. I had a little part of this review reserved here just for Postal 3, but now I'm thinking this is all it gets. ======================================================= I'm going to have to delay the release of the book a bit. The game will take more time than expected. I'm building the final city. It is the most ambitious. The first floor was one room, the second 3 rooms, the third will have 5, the fourth will have 7, and the fifth will have 9. I'm on floor 2. It's funny. Because I don't have to program killabilty for them, I can just create character after character with no effort at all. But even after the tower there's still the boss fight, then the god fight. And I wanted to program a new game +. As well as additional places you will only find in new game +. So, even with the dark souls LP finished and nothing else to do, February would probably be too optimistic. But perhaps I will find new energy like in the beginning. No random battles this time. There will be waves of enemies that attack like clockwork whether you're moving around or not. It will be a flash of color, maybe 3 - 5 of them, perhaps a sound like a ticking clock. ======================================================= Ok. Buddha. I don't like him. He's kind of an idiot. I enjoy the dhammapada and other works but as a person he's sort of a jackass. First of all he's like, Oh look at me, I've got 29 girlfriends, but after having that I've realized the futility of it and now I don't even want them. Well fuck you, Buddha, fuck you! You had 29 girlfriends you didn't even want. I just wanted one. I'd be really fucking happy with one. Ok second.... He's a deadbeat dad. He has his son but then he's like naw see you later kid, I'm going off on a spiritual quest. See it just annoys me. I don't know why girls want to date guys that treat them like crap. It's kind of a proto-rock star thing... Know what I like? I like:
The wise man fills himself with good, drop by drop. The fool fills himself with evil, drop by drop.
I like his philosophy, but he's just personally sort of a douche. That's all... ======================================================= So look, if you played Dark Souls and Demon Souls then played Persona 4 then got Persona 3 FES, then bought Catherine, then got a copy of Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, then you picked up digital devil saga and devil summoner. Try Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. It's in english. Just.... *Shhh!!*.... Pirate it. Who cares? It's from the year 2000. I honestly believe that allowances made for the capabilities of the system. It is actually the equal of it's later brothers. In it's own way. ======================================================= So the results of Iowa are in. Ron Paul did well, he won third. He's a serious candidate now. Romney won, and in an act of desperation, Rick Santorum won second. He's a walking joke. The only reason he's there is because everyone else imploded and they had no choice but the feces guy.
So the jolem are like, Ron Paul wins it was vote fraud. That's the only explanation they have for not winning an election. And I wouldn't put it past the bastards to rig the game, but the jolem cannot even conceive of losing an election fairly, and whether the game is rigged or not they'll call it vote fraud. Unless they win. This can still be salvaged. Otherwise, I guess Romney is your best bet. After watching them shapeshifting on stage these last six months, I have realized that Romney is the only one that is actually human. He is a worthless misguided little fool, but the rest of them have all proven themselves to be reptilians. Twisted filthy beasts, who seek the country so they can inflict grievous injury on it. Romney isn't a good conservative, because his views are not as overtly objectionable as some of the other candidates. So they don't really like him. He's a mormon, which they like even less. And he is perceived as a fish out of water on a rock, flipflopping around, gasping for breath. But that's it, it's him and the poo guy, and Ron Paul. So I'm rather proud of this. We have decimated them before the elections have even started. One after another. Week after week. Month after month. We tore them down, one at a time. Our only mistake. We forgot to destroy Santorum. Because we thought we had already destroyed him. They don't have a single candidate that is even remotely electable. So it's either, Ron Paul, go back to 1865, but at least there's drugs. I mean I'd support Herman Cain or Newt Gingrich if they were going to legalize pot. Or Santorum lol. Or Romney lol. Obama just might pull it off. I wonder if the secret service has been drugging them all clandestinely under Obama's orders. You know like at a horse race, where the only horse that isn't drugged is the one you're betting on. It charges out of the starting gate at furious pace, while the rest of them are so doped up they haven't even started moving. But a Ron Paul nomination is a sports car smashing through the stands and taking a shotgun to that horse. All the disenfranchised disaffected angry idealistic youths that voted for Obama, and then grew to hate him, would have a candidate again. They'll probably vote Obama to prevent the poo thing from becoming a reality, but they would like nothing more right now than to end the wars, and legalize pot. A republican win is very dangerous right now. Even an Obama win is dangerous right now, but less so. If you invade Iran, you're gonna lose this time. That's damn near world war 3. And the christian fundamentalists would love nothing more than to incite that war. But I would rather avoid it. They put sanctions on Iran. That's a precursor to war with America. First you soften them up with sanctions, then you invade. Today, I will finish the religious indoctrination stage of my RMXP game, and move onto stage 3. That's when it starts getting interesting. I like the game. It has a malleability that is quite refreshing and didn't exist much on the snes. I might play a bit of skyrim. Right now I have more videogames than I can play. Next, Dark Souls, definitely. The Tomb of Giants proved rather easy. I am certain I can complete it. Almost finished. I wasn't sure if I could complete a lets play, now I'm sure I will. Damn..... Republican election.... Fouling up my Skyrim review. I hate you. ======================================================= Jace is Pissed

A corporate rep gives me their card, offers me a 50 million dollar budget, and says to make whatever game I want. I follow up on the offer and it's legit. Do I make the next 3D Action RPG? For instance The Elder Scrolls 6. Modern day GTA style cities, imperials nords redguard high elves wood elves dark elves orcs khajit and argonians, it's the coolest shit you've ever seen, orcs driving around in cars running over elves, magic versus assault weapons, do I make that? Fuck no I don't I'm makin' randomly generated Zelda. So although I have said all this many times over, to clarify, this is the game I would like to make;
The lesson of minecraft is that if you take a simple concept, and use modern technology to push the limits of that simple concept to an insane degree, you can create a game that is better and more interesting than a twenty million dollar graphical powerhouse with meticulously designed levels and a blockbuster script starring morgan freeman and claudia black.
Randomly Generated Zelda. Or Alundra. Alundra is better, a more fluid system, but Zelda expresses the concept better. We have your standard 2D zelda type game, walking around through towns and forests. Sword fighting, magic. Loot I'm seeing as more like diablo, lots of randomly created items. But for now just running around, slashing enemies and plants and villagers with your sword and magic, jumping around. You gain abilities as the game progresses which allow further exploration like metroid. But anyway. If bethesda can make the mona lisa look trashy, and minecraft can make a 3D masterwork 10 times bigger than planet earth, then surely in 2D top down zelda style graphics we can randomly spawn a few trees, a few rivers, a few random dungeons, a few mountains, a few plains, a few towns, a few cities, a few jungles, a few swamps, a few farms, a few oceans, a few islands, a few ancient ruins, a few deserts, a few hell dimensions, a few castles, a few fortresses of evil with a few hundred impaled people out in front of them, etc, etc, etc. Lots and lots of biomes. As many biomes as possible. And more expansive biomes. If you are in the desert you stay in the desert for a while.
Now, consider Fallout 2. How arbitrary is the placement of those cities on the overworld map. How would the game be changed in the slightest if that city spawned randomly on a different part of the map?? Nothing would change. The game would proceed exactly as normal. The city would be the same. But it would take you a while to track down where it was because you wouldn't be sure where to find it that playthrough. The same principle applies to NPCS, quests, bosses, items.
But who cares about that?? I want to build a house. I'm running around this big randomly generated zelda. I want a house to relax in, and keep my stuff in. So I'm going to harvest materials and I'm going to build a house. Out in the middle of nowhere. I'm not just going to build a house, I'm really obsessive, I'm going to build a town. I'm sacrificing my entire life to this game, I'm building an entire city. People are moving into the houses. Some of them are just random people walking around, some are shopkeepers, some are questgivers, some are main characters. I'm not just going to build this city I'm going to be the king of it. I'm going to hire security to keep out the rabble, defend against attack, and follow me around. A whole king subsystem I won't detail at this time. Followers, free stuff. A house isn't enough for me I want a castle. But not just that.
This is what I describe as the Hermit aspect of the game. Building and acquiring in the world. But you are just in a host world someone has created. There is the hermit aspect, there is also the dimensional traveller aspect. How do you play this game? You either host a world, or you find someone else's world and join it. Levels, Items, Abilities, these would all carry over as you move from dimension to dimension. Some people are just invading and looting, moving from world to world, gaining power and wealth. As you wander around this world, you will encounter these people. Some of them will kill you. Some of them will chat with you and be your friend. If someone you don't like is in your city, you can give their names to the guards and they'll be attacked on sight. What can be built, can also be destroyed. Houses can be blown up, or burned to the ground. Sometimes a high level invader will be throwing your guards around the place. Sometimes you have a massive city with hundreds of guards all hunting down these people at once. So you have this system of kingship. Invaders are killing your guards, robbing you, and killing you. But what you're really worried about is that other hermit a few miles to the east. They have their own city. Their own army. And you are not on speaking terms with them. So essentially, they march on your city, they pillage it and much is destroyed many buildings reduced to rubble, but they have killed all your guards, and now hold the city. After maintaining control of the area for a specific amount of time, you are officially dethroned. You will not spawn there. If you go there, the guards will kill you. Even though you built the damn place yourself. Oh well. Take your levels and your items, move to a different dimension, and start over. That's all. That's what I'd make. Hardcore magic system. A game like this is all in the combat. Give me the money, now. Steal this idea. I'd pay for that game. I'd pay full retail price for a game like that, even if the graphics are from 1994. What's that game? That game is god.
Make a good well constructed story, but more important than that, lots of subquests, hundreds of them, spawning randomly all over the place. Lots of event spawn quests too, randomly constructed busywork that can be continued indefinitely, but far more importantly many fun well constructed, self contained subquests. Well written, linear, but spawning randomly, and hundreds of them.
A bestiary of lots of different monsters. For instance orcs, goblins, lizardmen, vampires, werewolves, zombies, skeletons, demons, and soforth. Ad infinitum for best results. Naturally these various monsters would spawn at night, as they do. But it would also be based on location. In addition there would be an equally varied number of animals, bunnies, cats, dogs, wolves, deer, pigs, chickens, lions and sabrecats, ad infinitum for best results. Bosses would be programmed to appear, you guessed it, at random. Some in hostile cities and areas. Some in dungeons. Craft a good hundred bosses some with complex narratives, some mindless beasts. Also a few end game bosses. The citizens would also come in different flavors. Humans of all races. But also different varieties of elves, dwarves, intelligent monsters, your standard skyrim lizardmen, orcs and cat people. The player character would also choose their race from the assortment of sentient species you encounter. Build your character with custom appearances. Dress up in different armor, equipment, and attire. Throw in some dating sim aspects. Let your player have a wife. Let some invader kill his wife and burn down his house, and murder him. To piss him off. Let the guy date lots of different girls and engage in dozens of polygamous marriages and collect spouses like playing cards. Accumulating them in great number, and spawning children if possible. This game is god. I'd buy it. And I'm not the only one. This game can be achieved now with current technology. Steal this idea. Cap it at 35-50 players a world. At least a few hundred miles each world. And you've got yourself a game. So if you gave me 50 million dollars that is what I would spend it on. In detail.
In addition it must be very violent and bloody. Limbs chopped off. People in piles of blood. Beheadings. People blown to bits. That would be cool. That would be the best thing in human history, but go ahead and waste all that money on useless schools and hospitals nobody needs, pointless police officers, bloated defense budgets and bank bailouts. ======================================================= Skyrim??.... Um.... I'm a werewolf. It was for a quest. I'm trying to marry some douche from the companions, because there's a glitch where you pay him for five levels of training in two handed weapons, and then because he's your follower you just take the money back from him and talk to him again in about a week. I'm going to do that until I have the beheading perk. Then we will see, once and for all, if you can actually collect the heads in your inventory, or if the heads can merely be moved around, and your only choice is the heads of your followers.
The game would need weather as well. There would be frozen arctic type areas. Rain, snow, storms. I mention this here only because I don't want to disturb the text by adding new material. ======================================================= So there are a few, shall we say 'outstanding issues', that I would like to address. First of all, what did Israel do? Well they didn't take my advice, they didn't just kill one scientist, get away with it, and leave well enough alone. They drove a motorcycle up to the car of another scientist, planted a bomb on it, drove away and blew it up. Murdered him and his driver. Clearly these idiots are trying to goad Iran into a war. And it's working, the Iranians are now talking about retaliating. As well they should. As anyone would. For instance if the Iranians were assassinating American scientists. You would consider that an act of war and respond in kind. These people are the stupidest assholes I have ever seen in my life. And again what do you deserve? You deserve bombs in your cities. You asshats.
But that is not the only 'problem' we have here. What did the Americans do? Well they murdered a bunch of people, and then videotaped themselves peeing on the corpses. American soldiers should be shot on sight. Again let's walk a mile in their shoes. What if the Iranians were occupying your country and killing so many Americans they were starting to think it was funny to pee on them? I believe you would use every means at your disposal to drive the enemy out of your country. As well you should. In fact I believe you would be nuking them at that point. It is not yet clear whether these people were merely fighting to free their country, or if they were just civilians. You think these people are heroes. No, they are assholes like this. Just most of them aren't stupid enough to post it on the internet. This issue gets to the heart of what the American soldiers really are. Behind all the propagandized dupes who think they are all wounded heroes fighting for mom the flag and apple pie, right out of an action movie. This is what they are actually doing. The only people fighting for their country are the hundreds of thousands of people you have killed. These things are just nazi soldiers. This is the American nazi party. They are nazi soldiers 2.0. And they should be shot on sight. They are disgusting monsters. Perverted degenerate murderers, the lot of them. We should build a gigantic prison, and transfer all the american soldiers there, along with anyone who collaborated with them. You should all have to pay massive reparations. Every president for the past 20 years should spend the rest of their lives in prison. You are the retarded bastard children of hitler. You are the worst thing that ever happened to the world. You should just nuke yourselves.
So.... HERE'S MY THOUGHTS ON A RANDOMLY GENERATED STORYLINE!!!!!.......;
(Two days earlier)
So, how can we reconcile a linear story with a persistent world, without turning the game into an mmorpg? Well one simple answer is that we put the story in a loop. A linear story, that can be completed by any player or multitude of players, and then when it's over, the plot npcs are revived, and the plot begins again somewhere else. Theoretically an uninterested hermit would just sit and watch while other people completed the story, not really caring, primarily concerned with building their city and maintaining defenses. But rather than a loop, I prefer the idea of there being about 4 stories, that spawn at random, or perhaps at the behest of the victorious player. Here is a concept I would like to see, consider, a game where the player is trying to figure out who the murderer is. There are six suspects. The killer is randomly chosen from the six of them at the beginning of the game, and the player would have to investigate or recognize patterns and behavior to figure out who it is. Each game would be fresh. Even after completing all six storylines they would still return just to see who it was. ======================================================= HOW DARE YOU CRITICIZE SYRIA?!?! HOW DARE YOU?!?! You complain about them killing 5000 people, when you murder by the hundred thousand!!! If you had only killed 5000 people we wouldn't even have a problem here. You are a LOT worse than Syria.
Seriously.... Shit! There's an American coming!! HIDE YOUR DAUGHTERS, AND GET THE MACHINE GUN!!!
Plus they got a machine army too. Half of the army are robots. Thousands of motherfuckers being killed by robots. Being murdered by an army nerd in a bunker playing a videogame. Killed by a missile from the sky. Never even seeing the face of your murderer. ======================================================= "So today, his deli comes first Still he dreams of his past days of glory Goes in the back and beats up on the liverwurst All the while you can still hear him say,
It’s the rye or the kaiser It’s the thrill of one bite Let me please be your catering adviser. If you want substitutions, I won't put up a fight. You can have your roast beef on the rye or the kaiser." ======================================================= I am often preoccupied with the idea of, if I were to go back in time and meet Nietzsche, or if I brought Nietzsche into the future, what music would I play him? Of course eventually I would get around to everything, and by the end he would be a fluent english speaker. But at the moment I would play him Liese, because it is good, and he would understand it. However I would also play him Rye or the Kaiser, with german subtitles, to appeal to his sense of humor. But those songs change from time to time.
Some people say the occupy movement needs some goals. I would advise prosecutions, and severe regulation. But if I were to run for office, I would run on the following two issues.
1: Make George Bush, Barack Obama and Dick Cheney into a human centipede.
2: Hack the military drones and unleash them on the general population.
I think, with those two goals as their foundation, the occupy movement could go far. And that is why I would like to be their leader. I know there are a lot of other suitors. Thom Hartmann is co-opting you, Alyona is co-opting you. Alex Jones is co-opting you. David Icke is co-opting you. Cenk is co-opting you. Amy Goodman is co-opting you. Michael Moore is co-opting you. Even Mike Rivero is co-opting you. Basically they're passing your ass around like a two dollar whore. But if you let me co-opt you too. And we rigidly pursue the goals I have just described. We can get there in 20 years. As a first step I would advise prosecuting all the war criminals and corrupt bankers, so we can get them in prison, then we'll rendition them to China, and make the human centipede.
First they ignore you, Then they make fun of you, Then they start taking you seriously, Then they make fun of you, Then they ignore you.... ======================================================= So, someone is in need of some significant congratulations. The Federal Liberals have endorsed full legalization of marijuana. Making them now more liberal than the NDP. I would now consider them the 'liberal alternative' to the NDP, and they have my vote. Harper is harper, harper is a turd, a turd is a turd, a turd is Harper. He wants tougher laws, for his "tough on crime" agenda. What I propose here is not a merger of the liberals and the NDP, that would turn Canada into the United States, what I propose is a voting alliance. Alone, the conservatives will always be in power as the largest voting block, but if the liberals and the NDP were allied, it would be an easy thing to win 50% of the population, and then we could just take the country from Harper. And lock him out for good. Yesterday the liberals were a walking joke, a has been party for dinosaurs. Today they are looking like my best shot at winning my freedom, and creating, paradise on earth. For me. Hell on earth for Harper.
Harper has gradually turned a country I was once very proud of into something increasingly repulsive. An international pariah. An advocate for war, pollution and the political right. He has embarrassed be terribly, again and again. This move by the federal liberals is the only faint hope I've had for an end to this misery, in years and years. I wish I could vote for them three times. I just hope the party isn't so scuffed up at this point that it isn't usable. Consider an alliance. Together, you can win. ======================================================= After I finished my RPG Maker XP game, I was going to host it on megaupload, and hopefully transition it to the archive after providing the megaupload link. But that's all fucked now. Megaupload has been taken down, for copyright bullshit. They were providing a valuable service, but now they're just gone, and I'll have to look for somewhere else to host my files.
If you'd like to get a little collection of old PSX games. There are too schools of thought on what you should do. One says you can go to one of the hundreds of sites that offer them for free, and build a nice collection. The other side, they think you should be purchasing the fourteen year old disks. So let's do it their way. I bought a playstation, now I'd like to buy a few games for it. What's the first game I'd want to play? Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. Ok let's check that out on Amazon it's...... 250 dollars. New. 110 used. Not surprising, because it has been out of print for a decade. It's a collectors item. So basically you can either take out a mortgage on your house, or wait diligently for your tax return for the year, to buy old playstation games. Or else you're a loser and you don't deserve anything. You should get nothing and like it. And if you do build that little collection of roms, that's $1500 that you owe me. And we will hunt you down.
Piracy hasn't done any damage to anyone. The corporations are still making movies, music, videogames, and books, at the same incredible rate. And they apparently have enough money to buy the politicians, so obviously they're not going broke. Where's the problem here? You have yours. I have mine. Why do you feel it necessary to tip the scales? Are your mountains of cash not enough for you? You have to squeeze the little guy for every penny he's worth? Fuck you. You are all cunts.
(Thank you Anonymous.) ======================================================= SOPA and PIPA have been fought back for a while. But the fight is not over. Obama will wait until after the election to sign it into law, or else the republicans will if they win. It may not be the same name. They will change the wording. Shuffle it around and send it back to you. It seems very complicated, but it's really quite simple. We want to take down the pirate bay. This bill will achieve that. Don't like that bill? What about this other bill that takes down the pirate bay? Don't like that one either? What about this one? Etc etc. Until one of them works. Basically they want to shut down all the "foreign infringing sites" like rapidshare and isohunt and the rest, And eventually the internet will be a giant shopping mall. After they passed the NDAA, which says that anyone the president deems a terrorist, anywhere in the world, with no due process, can be kidnapped, and then shipped to an American concentration camp, or maybe a CIA blacksite, where they will probably start cutting off your fingers or something. They have a history of calling taxi drivers terrorists and torturing them to death. They should have called that one the "Fuck Your Constitution Law". But when they completely dehumanized you and enshrined all the previous administration's atrocities into law, then flushed your constitution down the toilet. They probably thought they could just sneak through this legislation and the general jolem wouldn't notice or care. But they weren't prepared for the amount of opposition they would face. People are like. Dude, you put a black bag over my head and ship me off to a secret prison for the rest of my life with no evidence, that's one thing. But you fuck with my internet, and I will kill you. But they don't need SOPA and PIPA, they're already shutting down these sites. They think they own the world. So it's not enough to turn america into a crappy country like ireland where these sites are blocked. They want to supersede the laws of every nation on earth. They want a second drug war. They want to send you to prison for five years. ======================================================= Have you seen that X-Files episode called "Bad"? Because it's the most boss thing ever. It shows what dishonest pieces of shit Mulder and Scully really are, and it's hilarious. The scene with Mulder and the massage bed from Scully's perspective is probably the funniest thing ever made.
Anyway I'm here to talk about the 'punishment' of the haditha war criminal. He burst into women and children's homes and murdered them for fun. He killed 24 civilians. He got 3 months in prison, and a demotion. I worked that out. It's half a week, per murder. It's like a parody of actual justice. I think he deserves to die for what he did, but my policy is that he should go to jail for the rest of his life. This gross miscarriage of justice, is a whole new crime on top of the first crime. This freak will be walking around buying a house in your neighborhood pretty soon. And watch out, because he's going to break into your home, try on your wife's underwear, and then then murder anyone he finds. The hypocrisy is like black smoke filling the air, I can't breathe. You are proposing 5 years in prison for millions of teenagers all over the country for downloading a torrent, while someone who murdered 24 innocent people gets three months, maybe a small fine. My giant prison idea isn't looking so bad now is it? The large majority of american soldiers should be doing hard time in prison. The criminals who ordered the wars, should be brought before the ICC, and spend the rest of their lives in prison. But that is not what happens. The soldiers that committed the massacres are our heroes. The war criminals are set loose on the country and the world with no restraint on their actions whatsoever. Obama would probably be impeached if he actually ate a baby. But he blows up babies and children every couple of days with no remorse at all. I'm afraid this is nazi germany kids. Problem is, there was a mistake in the booking. We scheduled our renaissance at the same time they had scheduled for their nazi germany. I want my money back. It's not quite nazi germany. It's more like, what if Hitler had nukes? It almost makes it seem like Hitler was not a person, but rather a thing that happens to a country from time to time. A pattern of behavior, that can take root, rather than the force of will of one person. ====================================================== Also, a word on copyright. Copyrights were originally created to serve the public good, but they have now become a menace. They've been taken to a rather stupid extreme. For instance, if you have a song playing on the radio in the background of an unrelated video, the thought police will show up at your door and confiscate your freedom of speech.
Which is why I think they should create a "sane use" law. To deal with this kind of bullshit. It would work to prevent copyright laws from being used to bludgeon innocent people for no reason. I won't go into specifics, but there are many cases of this insanity making average people's lives miserable. The laws now have a chilling effect on free speech and innovation, rather than serving the interests of the artists and inventors as originally intended. ====================================================== Where would Jesus stand on file sharing? Would he not have rejoiced to learn that you can take one fish and feed a thousand outstretched hands? Or an unlimited amount. I believe he would have lost his shit. But maybe he'd be arguing for a crackdown on the internet and harsher copyright laws. Five years in prison, minimum. ====================================================== Yeah totally dude there's Jesus and he's creating thousands of fish for the hungry people and passing them out. And then a guy runs up and he's like "HEY!! You're ruining my fish business!! YOU'RE STEALING FISH!!!" and Jesus is like, "No dude I'm not stealing them look, I'm just taking one fish, and making an infinite amount of them." And the dude goes "We'll you're putting me out of business!! How can I compete with a product that costs nothing?! You're fucking up the economy. Plus!! You bought that first fish from ME!! You've infringed on the license of the original fish. Well let's add up how much money you owe me. You gave out 30,000 free fish. At a market value of 5 dollars a fish, you owe me 150,000 dollars in lost revenues!!"
[Files Lawsuit with Roman Empire] ====================================================== So... The doctor's mobile emitter.... Isn't that a violation of the prime directive? I mean they took technology from the future, and just used it. In fact they probably invented the mobile emitter when they reverse engineered the mobile emitter they got from the future. O_O ====================================================== Magic Online is weird. I bought 4 Vedalken Shackles at about 10 each. Today I saw that they were selling for 33 each, so I traded in 1 for 30, sold iona, and bought 4 hero of bladehold. The shackles are an amazing card, and with my recent jace and mana drain purchase, it was a kick to the gut. But I will buy it back. With the right lands, that card is broken. And even in mono blue it is very dangerous. Yeah I'll buy it back. With luck for less than I just sold it. At least I still have 3. ====================================================== To the people who have inexplicably viewed this review hundreds of times, I must apologize for not writing much recently, or making videos. I am moving forward on the game at full speed, that is consuming all of my energy at the moment. Soon I will begin school again, at which point I won't be able to do anything important at all. I'll have to fill my brain with useless trivia to survive. I am afraid. Because I remember what's about to happen, it will not be easy, it will not be simple algebra. The game is a triumph. This last city is better than everything else in the entire game. And if you were concerned that the game was too easy, rest assured, if you give them one turn, they will murder you. I can't say for sure, I'm not finished yet, but what I have done I like. It has elements of dark souls in the level design. The dialogue is funny, sharp. I've built the skeleton of the fourth floor. I can run around the city. I've created interiors to about 40% of the buildings, soon I will start populating it. I can't say it will be good until it's populated, but I am quite happy so far. And once this floor is done. Only the last will remain, then I can finish this, and move onto the fight with Yahtzee, and God. I have special plans for God. Then finally, after five years of work, my book will be complete. My video series will be complete. My game will be complete. I will print hard copies, distribute it for free online, and shop around for agents. And whosoever was not written into the book of life would be cast into the lake of fire, burning with brimstone... ========================================================== I said that. I believe it. Moreover I assert my right to believe it, without being locked up in an asylum by people who go home at night and talk to the voices inside their head. It is asserted that it is sane to believe Jesus is coming, but insane to believe that you are he. Why? When the man himself one day rears his head, will you not try to put him in an asylum as well? I am the God, and the Jesus, the Antichrist, and the Devil. I am the False Prophet. I am the Imam Mahdi, Allah, and the Dajjal. I am the Buddha and the Maitreya. And I am here to kill you all!!
The prophet has always been a man, never a god. It has always been an internal divinity. An internal war. A divinity of thought, of the mind, and ideas, of one's spirit, and not brute power. I am here. I am the first and the last, all that will ever be.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning, and the end. ====================================================== http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSlPVPnaJes&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 1 - Starting out) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fk82JhJpq4c&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 2 - First Blood) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8Erk-BFcNw&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 3 - The Marker of Death) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmsdoSGYdjg&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 4 - The Murder of Crows) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_zxRSSQS1U&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 5 - Realpolitik) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7yg0ffQ6iI&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 6 - Get on my Horse, Shadowmere) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afD9K8w7FcQ&feature=youtube_gdata (The Dark Brotherhood Chronicles - Chapter 7 - King of Pawns) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7sxAIJuPNw&feature=youtube_gdata (Skyrim Storytime) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdcPQhYAz4o&feature=channel_video_title (Christmas Special - Let's Play Baroque & The Demon Firesage) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Wlf_iBE0WQ (Let's Play Alundra, Bushido Blade, & Tenchu) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIcigpcFWig&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Thrill Kill and Alundra, & Getting the Skull Lantern http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aUksC7rcsY&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Persona 2 - Innocent Sin - Part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC3DvbQjvKo&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play MTGO - Jace's Anger) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNBuupmBbts&feature=channel_video_title (Let's Play Shenmue - Part 1) Let's Play MTGO (Merfolk) Let's Play Kagero: Devil's Deception 2 {one shot} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD-8iF8_UzQ&feature=channel_video_title (Let's Play Realm of the Mad God - Part 1)

"-In place of all that pitiable lie reality has this to say: the priest, a parasitical variety of man who can exist only at the cost of every sound view of life, takes the name of God in vain: he calls that state of human society in which he himself determines the value of all things "the kingdom of God"; he calls the means whereby that state of affairs is attained "the will of God"; with cold-blooded cynicism he estimates all peoples, all ages and all individuals by the extent of their subservience or opposition to the power of the priestly order. One observes him at work: under the hand of the Jewish priesthood the great age of Israel became an age of decline; the Exile, with its long series of misfortunes, was transformed into a punishment for that great age-during which priests had not yet come into existence. Out of the powerful and wholly free heroes of Israel`s history they fashioned, according to their changing needs, either wretched bigots and hypocrites or men entirely "godless." They reduced every great event to the idiotic formula: "obedient or disobedient to God."--They went a step further: the "will of God" (in other words some means necessary for preserving the power of the priests) had to be determined--and to this end they had to have a "revelation." In plain English, a gigantic literary fraud had to be perpetrated, and "holy scriptures" had to be concocted--and so, with the utmost hierarchical pomp, and days of penance and much lamentation over the long days of "sin" now ended, they were duly published. The "will of God," it appears, had long stood like a rock; the trouble was that mankind had neglected the "holy scriptures". . . But the ``will of God`` had already been revealed to Moses. . . . What happened? Simply this: the priest had formulated, once and for all time and with the strictest meticulousness, what tithes were to be paid to him, from the largest to the smallest (--not forgetting the most appetizing cuts of meat, for the priest is a great consumer of beefsteaks); in brief, he let it be known just what he wanted, what "the will of God" was.... From this time forward things were so arranged that the priest became indispensable everywhere; at all the great natural events of life, at birth, at marriage, in sickness, at death, not to say at the "sacrifice" (that is, at meal-times), the holy parasite put in his appearance, and proceeded to denaturize it--in his own phrase, to "sanctify" it. . . . For this should be noted: that every natural habit, every natural institution (the state, the administration of justice, marriage, the care of the sick and of the poor), everything demanded by the life-instinct, in short, everything that has any value in itself, is reduced to absolute worthlessness and even made the reverse of valuable by the parasitism of priests (or, if you chose, by the "moral order of the world"). The fact requires a sanction--a power to grant values becomes necessary, and the only way it can create such values is by denying nature. . . . The priest depreciates and desecrates nature: it is only at this price that he can exist at all.--Disobedience to God, which actually means to the priest, to "the law," now gets the name of "sin"; the means prescribed for "reconciliation with God" are, of course, precisely the means which bring one most effectively under the thumb of the priest; he alone can "save". Psychologically considered, "sins" are indispensable to every society organized on an ecclesiastical basis; they are the only reliable weapons of power; the priest lives upon sins; it is necessary to him that there be "sinning". . . . Prime axiom: "God forgiveth him that repenteth"--in plain English, him that submitteth to the priest."
-Nietzsche
I think I might have been wrong about Atlus. I thought Atlus was releasing masterpiece after masterpiece getting better and better, and Demon's Souls was the final, and inevitable conclusion of their life's work and the perfect manifestation of their ideology. But now I'm starting to wonder if From Software had all the talent and Atlus just stamped their name on it. Most likely there is some truth to them both, Atlus provided fertile ground for the harvest, encouraging their individuality rather than stifling it, which allowed the young company to produce their masterpiece. But without Atlus, the game is no worse off, indeed it is far better. I am rating this the best game of all time, so far. It is perfection. Everything that made Demon's Souls great is there, but they've improved on the formula in dozens of ways. This is the most detailed and intricate open world ever conceived. You play for ten hours, just to wind up where you started. This is not Oblivion. This is not an open world in the sense of being a vast expanse of open fields and hills, with miles of empty space between towns and cities. In fact it cannot be compared to anything else because no one has ever made a game like this before. It is a strictly controlled system, more reminiscent of a linear rigidly structured game. But then the paths connect, and you are back where you began. There are dozens of locked doors, connecting to new paths and new parts of the game. The door you passed, later connects as a shortcut to somewhere otherwise far away. You begin, with 3 options. You can fight the skeletons, (you will die, you try something else) You can explore the undead burg, fighting low level zombies, and knights, in a castle setting. You can explore Blight Town far underground. Similar to the swamp of weakling filth and aborted fetuses in world 5 of Demon's Souls. This game is a lot better than Demon's Souls. The underground world stretches on, level after level, daring you to see how rich the world really is. Each of these 3 paths expand into several other choices. You defeat much of the undead burg, and the undead parish, and ring the bell, but what now? I could fight the super quick walking tank, after the area where the assassins ambush. Or I could explore the forest, with the tree creatures and golems. Perhaps if I somehow kill the dragon, I would find somewhere new to go. And that's just the undead burg, there's still the catacombs, there's still the depths of blighttown. Each as expansive as the others. That is about 12 hours into the game. It's a 60 hour game. In dark souls, there is no nexus, you are stockpile thomas, the maiden in black, the blacksmiths, and the mages all rolled into one. Consequently there is no need for a Nexus area. You simply explore the world. They have refined demon's souls. Learned from it. Improved it in every way possible, and balanced it. No more endless wars of attrition with black phantoms, each of you healing from an unlimited supply of grass, the fight continuing until one of you loses the will to fight, becomes careless for a moment, and is killed. Now there is a limited supply of healing, and a limited supply of magic. At the same time, you never run out of grass, you never run out of spice. You have a fair amount of both, and always have it. This is the best healing system ever invented. A bastardized mongrel child of regenerating health, and healing with items. The combat is improved, it flows better, it's more responsive. Each weapon behaves exactly as it should. Most are viable, it is up to the player to choose what they like and upgrade it. The high tier upgrades are a bit further into the game than I've gotten. And I could go on. It is the best game ever made, the state of the art, the game against which all other games will be judged. It's like the Mona Lisa, or Michelangelo's David. It is perfection. There are games that are everything you ever dreamed of. Then there are games like this, which know better than you, what you want. It satisfies you on levels you never even knew existed. It's the most beautiful work of art ever conceived by humanity. For shame, Deus Ex Human Revolution, For shame!!....
There is a system of covenants. You can only join one, and if you betray your covenant your name will be added to the book of the guilty and you'll be hunted down by invading players for the rest of the game, unless you pay an exorbitant charge. Those players have joined a PVP covenant. Invasion is more niche than it was in the other game. If you are not in the proper covenant, you can only invade when in human form, meaning as long as you're not in the book of the guilty, you will only be invaded now and then, far less frequently than in the previous game. In fact if someone does invade your game, and spoil your day, you can actually report them, and have their name added to the book of the guilty. But that's just one covenant. There is a co-op covenant. There is a covenant where none of the creatures in the forest will attack you, but if you kill one tree, one wolf, or anything else, the covenant is broken. You can join in a covenant with Nito. He will allow you to drop a special sign, it will appear in 3 other player's worlds, spawning a dangerous black phantom in each of them. If the phantom kills them, you get their souls and humanity, but if one of them finds where you've hidden your sign, they can invade your world and try to take you out. Making it a very risky but profitable and fun endeavor. You can join in a covenant with the entity that wishes to envelop the world, granting you special equipment, and you can skip one of the later bosses entirely. One covenant allows you to travel between campsites and gives you extra estus flasks. In another, if you chose the witch's ring, none of the witches will attack you, and you can join their ranks, learning spells I believe. Etc, etc, etc. There are at least 9 distinct covenants, ranging the saintly and orderly, to the chaotic, to the evil. The choice is the player's. In theory one would have to play the game 9 times over to see the covenants alone. It is also difficult, but after 12 hours, nothing overly unfair. Challenging, but not undefeatable. Some of the later bosses, and certain enemies, are cheap. The cursed frog and the equipment killer spring to mind. But that is not even close to enough to bring the game down. It is just a manifestation of the designer's sadism. Creating ridiculous punishment and difficulty, that you are forced to endure, because the game is so wonderful. It is worth putting up with the game's quirks. Every fault and act of cruelty, enough to destroy a lesser game on their own, are all justified by it's quality. There is no excuse for not playing this game, just Seppuku, that's what you should do. I'll get back to you when I've made progress. ============================================================== So that suspicious guy in the gold armor, that I was wondering if I should kill.... Well I really should have killed him. He killed my fire keeper, now I can't upgrade my flasks.... Wondering if I should just start the whole fucking game over. I don't know if it's even possible to complete the game with low level estus flasks, but if I restart I'm throwing away 20 hours.... That's annoying.... "What's he gonna do kill my npc's?" Yes Brendan, he killed your npcs. You're stupid.
Scratch that, someone on a forum said there are other people that can upgrade your estus flasks, and you might actually be able to revive the girl or something. Rather an annoyance, but at least the game might still be salvageable.
Scratch that, unless you have the witches ring that npc doesn't speak. But the other one couldn't speak, can you still upgrade the flasks? This is giving me a fucking headache. It's already the most difficult game I've ever played, it just got about 4 times more difficult. But I think I will press on.
Also hey Atlus? Want to make a bit of money doing almost nothing and help a guy out all at the same time? Sell the babel stages of Catherine as DLC. Then, you know, people can play them. ============================================================== So my cat went missing. She's been gone for 2 days. She's diabetic and 16, and I doubt it will end well. I don't even know what happened to her. She's just gone. Did she crawl into some dark place and just die of old age? Was she hit by a car? Was she adopted by some well meaning child? Or did she find her way into the hands of a future serial killer? I don't know. She was the sweetest, kindest, most affectionate cat I ever met. She had a most wonderful spirit. She was pure gold. So here is what I was going to write yesterday and should have. Now it has kind of lost all meaning.
I realized, I had just gotten out of one abusive relationship, and then I just immediately started seeing a game that was exactly the same. Unfair difficulty fine, but don't mess with my estus flasks. Don't take away the best bonfire in the game. That's not fair. So I don't really want to make a video right now but I should probably at least start one, because I've made significant progress. I figured out the door in the heart of the forest and will elaborate on that in the video. But I also killed the dragon. I cut off it's tail for the sword. It's not my favorite move set, it won't see much use, even with the high damage, but I got it. Then I spent about half an hour shooting arrows at the dragon's leg from under the bridge. It didn't work. Then I read a guide that told me to shoot his head from near the poison rats. I did significant damage, but the creature kept healing, the bow was too slow. So I just experimented to see if I could aim my magic attacks, and it worked. So I aimed my shots with the greater heavy soul arrow, and killed him in like 8 shots before he even got a chance to heal. Gaining a worthless 10,000 souls, or seven minutes of grinding, and basically nothing else. Except a shortcut to the undead parish which I didn't need and will never kindle. I have 1 humanity. I need 1 extra humanity to kindle the bonfire somewhere in blighttown. Blighttown is my only hope to upgrade the estus flasks. The only other possibility is practically at the end of the game or something. It's like 20 or 30 hours away. Or at least that's my best guess. I wish I could restart the game at any time with my levels and items intact, like dead rising 2. The game is significantly better than Demon's Souls, it is also that much more sadistic. I find the message system worse than demon's souls. Even thought it is more precise and advanced than it was. It also lacks soul. It's more difficult to make silly statements that mean nothing. I wanted to write "Attack!" in front of the traitor, but the nearest message I could find was "Be wary of liar." When I showed up the first thing I wanted to do was say "This place again." But it wasn't there. It's good, but it doesn't have the same heart as the first message system. Even though it's a better game in almost every way. ============================================================== I don't understand you people. There appears to be no rhyme or reason to your appetites. Some videos get 100 hits, some get 20. The quality of the video, the amount of effort put into it, the length of the video, all appear to have no significant impact one way or another. The last one you liked I specifically mentioned in the description that it was boring, you watched it anyway. Maybe you don't like being called Jolem. Who knows?.... So I'll just keep making videos however I want I guess, and play the slot machine as to whether anybody will watch it or not. I sincerely apologize to the people whose perfectly reasonable comments have gone unread. The swarm of evil shitheads scared me to my core, I cannot ever go back, and still preserve my self respect. If you ask to friend me I will try to agree to all of them once every two and a half months. That's about all I can do. Now...
As for Gilad Shalit, trading him for a thousand people. I guess it's good politics or something, but if I were in charge, he would be hung upside down by his legs from the ceiling, and then sawed in half right down the middle. And then we would collect the vitae. Is what I would do. I think that would send a strong message. If you blow up hundreds of our children and spray white phosphorous on our hospitals, and make us drink dirty water ever day, and destroy our society on purpose, and crush us, and deprive us of our human rights, then you can expect to have your soldiers cooked inside a brass bull, is all. But they want to trade him for 1000 detainees whatever. I guess they really want the detainees or something. They are a lot more reasonable than I would be in the circumstances. And of course I support no active violence against any specific person in any specific place, I merely support my right of free speech to say whatever I want, no matter how murderous or evil. Killing a person is not something I could ever do, I just like to watch.
A word about the enemies in dark souls. Demons Souls had a great variety of different enemies, from the sneaky jews in world 3, to the filthy christians in world 5. But the enemy designs are much better in dark souls and more varied. There is a great bestiary full of all kinds of different creatures. Some of them are reminiscent of the other game, like the filthy panhandlers in blighttown from world 5. Or the undead soldiers in the undead burg from world 1. But some of them are entirely different. The tree people in the forest, giant metal statues, the club wielding ogres, or the frogs, etc. There is usually about 1 new enemy for each area, and at least 13 unique and distinct levels. It's the finest thing ever. For shame, Leonardo Da Vinci's mona lisa, for shame!!! The game is excellent. Spectacular. A revelation. A divine gift for all humanity. In fact I need to get working on another video. In this one I'm going to explore blighttown, but I also need to kill the curse healer for his key, and fight the 4 kings. I don't even know who the fuck the 4 kings are but apparently I have to fight them. That guy is your last line of defense against the curse. If you lost the undead merchant girl, and already traded 1 cracked red eye stone to sparkly the crow, and used the special ring, that guy is your last line of defense. You might never finish the game under those circumstances. However, it has to be done. Once I get past blighttown I'm going to join the witch's covenant, learn everything they have to offer, leave the covenant, then join the dark wraiths. If I haven't squandered it I can trade in my 10 humanity for a working invader stone, if I get 20 humanity after that, I can finally get a decent fucking weapon for once. I want the sword the black knights have, but I'm too cheap to farm them with multiples of humanity. Anyway look I'd like to sit here and talk at your ear about this game all night, but I really have to go relax, because I have to do a video soon. So I'll see you later. Whoever watched those videos, man, I will set you up in hell, I'll give you mansions the size of a country, political clout, endless supplies of cash, everything. These fools going to heaven, they're going to lose their mind when they see that all they got was gardens where rivers flow and like... fucking fig trees or something. They'll wish they were in hell by day 3. Dark Souls.... ============================================================== Hmm.... My cat's alive.... She just showed up at the door. I had already made my peace with it and practically wrote her obituary. Very strange. Very strange indeed. But very wonderful. ============================================================== So this is why Muslims piss me off.... I get a free translation of the Quran, and I like reading the quran, even though the quran doesn't like me. So this fellow is going on about various 'scientific miracles' in the Quran. (Scientific Miracle = Distorting the original intent of the the text to support your own views.) Here's one of the scientific miracles he talks about...
Miracles in Human Beings
14. Presence of sensory nerves in skin.
"Those who reject Our signs, We (Allah) shall soon cast them into fire, as often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change it for them with fresh skins that they may taste the penalty (of Fire): For Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise." -Nisa 4: 56
Can you believe this shithead? That he has the gaul to call this crap a scientific miracle. OH MY GOD!! YOU BURNED OFF ALL HIS SKIN BUT THEN YOU REPLACED IT WITH MORE SKIN SO HE CAN SUFFER ETERNALLY... IT'S A MIRACLE!!!
And if you have another quote from the Quran that you think is more peaceful I advise you to use it for toilet paper, you fucking fool. ============================================================== So, I would now like to restate my ideology, in case it was not clear enough in the first place. This is the game I want to create. First, it requires extreme violence. Soldier of Fortune did it fine without any trouble in 2000 or something, so the technology has been there for a while, it's just that no ones doing it. Take the same base concept, apply it to modern technology and boom, dismemberment. You should be able to take people apart piece by piece. Blow off their limbs, cut them off, burn them, leave nothing but a torso and a pile of body parts. But that's just half of it. It should not be a matter of just alive or dead, there should be multiple intermediary stages of torture. People should bleed to death slowly from dozens of little cuts or a bullet wound to the stomach. They should be crippled, and howling in pain. There should be any number of ways of doing severe damage without actually killing them. Reducing them to a cowering bleeding pile of fear, incapable of doing anything except wail in agony, rather than just killing. Second, the choice of victim is as important as the violence itself. GTA 4 is more violent than Soldier of Fortune, because you are killing civilians, even if the gore isn't nearly as developed. There is a difference between killing a gang member, soldier, thug or cop, and killing a civilian. The player should be allowed to kill anyone they choose, and that choice is important. To that end the player should be provided a vast array of different types of people from every walk of life. Babies, children, teenagers, adults, mature adults, and the elderly, as well as animals. The people must be of a variety similar to what you see when you walk around outside. All kinds of people. Fat, Thin, Pretty, Ugly, Punks, Businessmen, Guys in Hawaiian shirts, Schoolkids, Priests, The homeless, Rastas, Shopkeepers, etc, etc, ad infinitum. Every race and nationality accounted for. And soforth. The more detailed the choice of victims the better. Additionally. There should be a system of stealth, sound, light, cones of vision, witnesses running to the police. Allowing activities to be committed in secret, and witnesses silenced. A wide range of weapons and armaments, any variety of gun, melee weapons, sticks, rocks and planks, kitchen utensils, and even the ability to beat people with severed body parts. Finally, what I do not want to see is a gore game. All this is wasted if the game is not entertaining and engaging. If there's a story it should be excellent. The gore should be enough to sell well even without much of a game, and the game should be good enough to sell well even if it had no gore. There should be an engaging open world to explore. The plot if emphasized should be a masterpiece. The gameplay must be responsive and entertaining. The violence, merely an extension of the player's choice. I am partial to a well developed system of character development. A game that features only gore is of no interest to me. Worse still most of these are heavy on the thugs and soldier types, that's not real violence. MadWorld for instance was just pitiful, and not nearly as violent as something like GTA, and not an eighth as fun a game either. That said, take the gore of mad world, (for lack of the superior system of dismemberment just stated) and apply it to GTA, and the game is improved. Also people should have a set amount of blood that can spray out of their body before they die. It is imperative that people bleed to death slowly. And if dismembered large amounts of blood should spray everywhere. Leaving realism aside, sometimes people should survive losing limbs and lurch around the place screaming. You should do that. Get it right and you're game of the decade. You might fear doing so would get you labeled with an adults only rating, and the shops won't stock it, but I think the tide is shifting. Being banned would only increase interest in this climate, especially if the game is decent. PC would be a good way to go.
Here's how to make dark souls better. PC port. Instant improvement. Also if we had keyboards you could just let us type whatever messages we wanted. You'd have to do that online interactions not rated by the esrb thing, but it'd rule. The game would be oddly reminiscent of twitter or youtube, with people summing up *chuckle* complex thoughts in a few hundred characters. That would really be the best thing ever. My game would be awesome, but probably not as good as Dark Souls. Because some games are better than you are able to imagine. Still Dark Souls quality game with my dismemberment system, instant game of the decade. ============================================================== So I really tried to ignore this Occupy Wall Street thing. I think Dark Souls is infinitely more relevant than some stupid story of the week protest movement. This activity is truly unproductive. The end result has no use, no necessary task has been accomplished, time has been expended, nothing more. All it really achieves is higher ratings for the young turks, RT, and Democracynow. But as much as I try to ignore these people, the police won't stop brutalizing them. It's as if they don't understand this game at all. It's as if they think they can just beat the protesters into submission and that will make them go away. They shot an Iraq war vet in the head with a tear gas canister. He had a fractured skull. A bunch of people ran up to try to help him, and the cops threw a stun grenade at them. They seem to think brutalizing the protesters will solve the problem. What they don't understand is that with every act of police brutality, the movement becomes stronger and stronger, and it bores me that much more. I support the protesters, but I have been through one too many movements that achieved nothing. If they win meaningful legislation I will sing their praises, as it were. I just question their ability to actually do anything except make Cenk Uygur "excited".
In some scientific models of the universe, if you go far enough in one direction, you end up back where you started. Dark Souls operates in the same manner. If you look far enough in one direction, you see the back of your own head. There has never been a world like this before. It takes minutes to reach the beginning of one set of levels, and the game is littered with shortcuts everywhere, but just walking from the central hub to Anor Londo will take about 25 minutes. It's the most beautifully crafted work of perfection ever conceived of in this medium. It's like walking into a Tolkien novel. I played it for about 80 hours so far, and there's still so much left to explore. The place where the lava was drained, leading to at least one more level after itself, and then to Lost Izalith. After the Catacombs it's the Tomb of Giants. And then Anor Londo itself, which contains the Painted World of Ariamis, and also leads to the Duke's Archives which lead to the crystal cave. Each of the 3 major paths lead to about 20 hours each at least. Deus Ex Human Revolution was better than the original, but far shorter due to the excessive production costs of modern games. But Dark Souls dwarfs the original Deus Ex at least 2 or 3 times over, and arguably 4 or 5. They should revoke Barack Obama's Nobel Peace Prize, and give it to From Software. ============================================================== Note that when the Vidiians stole Neelix's lungs Captain Janeway was all like "We can't take one life to save another!" But you notice she didn't have any problem killing Tuvix. ============================================================== Some people have a pet peeve. This is mine. People who hang out in your hallway, or near your hallway, and eavesdrop on you for long periods of time. Then eventually you hear them start to complain about what they hear, they begin criticizing you and complaining because, as you are alone in your fucking home, you are yelling and screaming, and angrily plotting. Those people should be cut into tiny pieces and thrown into the the ocean as free food for fish. That's my pet peeve. ============================================================== So what did Israel do? Again.... 2000 new settlement units in East Jerusalem. Why? I mean besides they're kleptomaniacs. Because UNESCO admitted the Palestinian state. Also a little pissing match, not really worth talking about. I almost had a nervous breakdown when George Bush returned to UNESCO. Obama is in Campaign mode again, and doing well because the republicans are absolutely retarded right now. They're just derping out. He might actually win, and I might even support voting for him, just to see if he will betray us a second time.
I can't progress until I kill the 4 kings, but I'm not sure I will be able to. Instead of killing the 4 kings, the video might simply conclude with losing to them. I have picked the cheapest strategy I could find, which is havel's armor with iron flesh and the Crystal Ring Shield and my best weapon. But you have to fight through new londo ruins and a bunch of wraith things just to fight the boss in the first place. I'm not sure I can yet. Everything has been leveled at the expense of health. I'm actually thinking the ring of favor and protection is probably my best choice for the fight, even if I just break the ring immediately after. I need the health boost. And even though I'll be fighting with the crystal ring shield, if I were to attack I'd have enough for 5 strong attacks. ============================================================== Yeah the 4 kings? No. That's not happening. Couldn't even get past the third normal enemy. Need to level up. You know what I'm going to do? I'm getting the fucking lordvessel, and just not talking to frampt. And I might even visit the painted world of ariamis. And you know what else? I could have got an awesome fucking sephiroth sword, with over 400 attack power but do you know what I did? I used all my red titanite chunks to make a fucking Chaos +1 washing pole. I actually made a new +5 fire washing pole, and even that does more damage than the chaos one. I won't see anymore red titanite chunks until the end of the game or Lost Izalith (rare). Also now I have to keep wearing the fucking ring of favor and protection. ============================================================== David Icke, when global warming begins making the earth uninhabitable, and your children and grandchildren ask you, as they face their deaths, what did you do when you were there? You'll have to tell them, well honey I was trying to make the problem worse, I was actively working against a solution. He says if you do half an hours research you'll see he's right. Yeah half an hours research on conspiracyplanet.com, or foxnews.com. Scientists, have done, scientific research, for more than half an hour on the internet. Much like young earth creationists, your beliefs and crackpot studies do not override a scientific consensus. It just pisses me off a bit because my descendants will be wiped out because of this, not to mention the entire species, and we can stop it, right now. But you want to kill us all, and that annoys me. The only way I can prove you wrong is by the species being destroyed, at which point, you're already dead. So what do you care? But me? I see my place, the millions of years of history that brought me to this place, and the miraculous future we could create, and all of that being destroyed because of radio shows and talk news. You spew poison into the ocean, kill my fish and my dolphins. Now threatening to destroy the arctic, the polar bears and the seals and the penguins. I despise that. I hate that. I like your ideas. But you debase yourself with stupidity when you talk about this shit. And it annoys me, because everyone's going to die. Because of you. ============================================================== Greece, Greece is funny. Nobody cares what happens to Greece, everyone's so worried about their own bank account the only thing they're concerned with is to what extent will the country be enslaved to preserve my bank account for 2 years. I'd hate to be Greece right now. The guy in charge tried to have a referendum on the crippling austerity gift to the bankers. And everyone went ape shit, the contempt for democracy chokes the air, What?! How dare you?! You idiot!! IF YOU DO THAT THE PEOPLE WILL VOTE AGAINST THE BAILOUT!! YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!! You owe me that money..... If you don't pay me what you owe me, I'll break your legs... Most of the politicians there are just like "Yes Massa." But it looks like they might vote on it, Good. As if people having a say in what happens to their country is some kind of sin. It's supposed to be the foundational principle of our society, but apparently we're now more concerned with banks. And honestly the whole thing looks a lot more like that quote from the prince I mentioned earlier than a liberal democracy. I don't really understand the economics. I think we should arrest a lot of bankers and then loot their savings and spend it on college scholarships. I'm probably the wrong person to ask about economics. ============================================================== I just killed a little roach. I was using the sink and there were many of them there, I turned on the tap and most of them scattered, a few of them went down the drain. But one.... I saw under the water, a little black dot, and I wondered if it was a roach, then after about ten seconds, it lost it's grip and fell down the drain. But he held on bravely. With the full force of the water all around him, he held on for his life. He tried so hard to survive. Then he was swept away. I feel rather guilty about that, and writing this is the least I owe him. Poor little thing. That little life was the most important thing in the world to him. He didn't want to die. He fought so hard. It's sad. ============================================================== One wonders at the sanity of a God that would create a universe, populated by a vast number of species and civilizations, but putting them so far apart that none of them will ever meet any of the others. ============================================================== So about Innistrad. I was kinda thinking. After Jace, The Mind Sculptor, they are terrified of printing anything that's too powerful. The only really noteworthy card in the entire set is snapcaster mage. 10 dollars each. 2/1 flash, target card gains flashback until end of turn. It's kind of like a very selective yawgmoth's will for blue, and you can bounce it with Jace. Get back your Swords to Plowshares, Get back your demonic tutor. Not a bad card by any means, but nothing too great right? But then I started thinking, wait a minute. Say I buy those 4 mana drain. Counter early get it in the graveyard feast on mana. Then at 4 mana you leave it untapped for the opponent's turn, player does something you don't like, snapcaster mage with flash, get back your mana drain, devour mana at upkeep. I want 4. Also for some reason Dark Confidant halved in price from 20 to 10, but I absolutely am not in a position to buy anything else right now, so I have to pass that up. Hopefully the price remains static. ============================================================== So, issue for issue, I agree with you on most things. Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee. I don't like the way you're treating the jolem. You fill their heads with terror about criminals breaking down their door, and then you use that to sell them guns. I don't like the idea of putting guns in the hands of terrified jolem. I gotta say this though, when a while back I said your only hope was a primary challenger, ron paul, or a revolution, I really didn't expect you to pick the revolution. I didn't think you had it in you. I thought they had drained all the fight out of you and you would just passively accept whatever they did to you, but you've impressed me. You could make real law if you keep up this momentum. Hahaha, stupid tea partiers, peaking too soon, now you're yesterday's news. We ripped off your idea, and now our movement is bigger than the tea party ever was. The republicans must be stopped. Under no circumstances must you allow them to get into office, or you WILL have a war in Iran. Which would ignite a major world war. You might even still get it with Obama.
So what did Israel do? To a canadian, one of my brothers. They tazered him, and repeatedly strip searched an attractive democracynow reporter. I wasn't surprised when American politicians didn't give a shit that one of their own citizens was murdered by Israel on the flotilla. But the Canadian politicians aren't even standing up for their own brutalized voter, to support some fascist right wing agenda. Canada's supposed to be better than that. I hate Harper. He's dragged us all along with him on his little nazi parade, we even cut funding to UNESCO. We're pawns. Harper must be listening to that new Herman Cain theme song or something. Even I want to vote for him when I hear that. "I am America!! One voice, united we stand!!" Yeah that rocks, even though personally he is a filthy filthy beast. ============================================================== So with regards to the Herman Cain allegations. Now, is Herman Cain capable of lying on national TV about a rape? Hell yeah, he wouldn't even bat an eyelid. What about the woman, does she have reason to lie?…. Oh yes, absofuckinlutely. Right now, there is a young woman demanding Justin Bieber take a paternity test. Bieber has agreed to the test and plans to file a lawsuit, as well he should. Obviously the girl is crazy. Why is she doing it? She wants money and attention. By saying this does it mean I support deadbeat dads? No, I just dislike lying shitheads. I think this woman is an opportunistic liar, nothing more. Her testimony sounds like a bullshit story. "Then he took my head and pushed it towards his crotch, and I said Mr Cain, you know I have a boyfriend. And I'll throw in all woman who've been abused and are afraid to speak out." So he raped you, then you put it on the backburner for 15 years, and now that he's running for office you just happened to come forward. People will do anything for fame and money, and that's all the excuse they need. Also, Cain's denial has the ring of truth, whereas the girl's story sounds really full of shit. Could be wrong, but I don't think I am. Either one of them has every reason in the world to lie. If she is lying, this woman is not standing up for the victims of abuse, she is shitting on them to make a buck.
There's also the Rick Perry gaf. Everybody is going crazy because he forgot one of the three departments he plans to axe. Everyone is talking about how devastating it was. Nobody is bothering to point out how crazy the idea of axing the department of education really is, which is one of the things he did say. But it doesn't surprise me that he's against education. The more stupid uninformed people there are, the more republican voters you'll have. Ron Paul suggested the EPA to axe. That's just great, that way if a corporation poisons us and a bunch of people die, that business will promptly fold, the free market in action. Ron Paul is one of the more extreme republicans on the field. He supports legalizing pot, and for that reason I would vote for him in a second, but drop that issue and he's not much better than Herman Cain. Indeed he is quite a bit worse. The jolem think he's the second coming, but really he's one of the nastier republicans. Let the poor die in the street if they get sick. Ban abortion. Eliminate environmental protections and let the polluters go hog wild. Can't afford private school? Too bad you're fucked. And so on. Hardly a paradise, but I would happily vote for Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Osama Bin Laden, Richard Ramirez, George Bush, or even a dog or a piece of cheese, if they legalized pot. I'm very tired of being denied my freedom. You can smoke cigarettes until your lungs turn black, you can drink yourself into a coma, but I can't smoke a harmless substance. Wretched hypocrites. Making me pay exorbitant prices for 3 grapes worth of weed, that I have to trek halfway across the city to get. The average man could enjoy his life, even if he's not rich, even if his job is crap, he could be happy anyway. Even a very mediocre life can be enjoyed with marijuana. Any regular state would be paradise if pot was legal. The simple happiness of an entire world has been robbed. We are expected to slave away our lives, and if you try to take some joy in your life, some small solace, that is illegal. No, you must suffer. I would give anything for my freedom. To live my life in peace. But that will never happen. What a wonderful world we have been denied. What a joyous life has been stolen from us.
Joe Paterno is funny. I normally wouldn't lower myself to talking about sports, but I find his take quite amusing. He's like "Well yeah sure he said there was some abuse happening, but no one told me that he was penetrating them! I just assumed there was some molestation going on. I let it slide." ============================================================== On further consideration, I forgot that Cain settled with 2 of his 5 accusers. That kind of tips me in the other direction. ============================================================== Recently I was having a conversation with my grandmother about remembrance day. She said something to the effect of "They're dying so you can have a good country." I replied that "I don't see how us being in Afghanistan helps me have a good country." She answered "Well they're building schools and things..." The people of Afghanistan are not threatening to take away my freedoms, however us being there puts a big red target on the entire country. What about their freedoms. Yes we're building some schools, we're also murdering thousands of them. We hunt them for sport and cut off their fingers and pull out their teeth. We break into homes and murder entire families, then call in air strikes on the house to cover up the evidence. If China was in Canada, killing a few dozen of us every month, and were also building a few schools, I think we would do everything in our power to drive them out. The people that we are killing, are more noble than we are. I honor their sacrifice on remembrance day. They are the ones fighting against impossible odds to save their country from occupation. They are laying down their lives in far greater numbers than we are. The nazi soldiers gave up their lives by the million, are they heroes? Some consideration must be given to what it is they are fighting for. The people that fought in world war 2 are all heroes. The soldiers in Vietnam were all war criminals. The people that fought in Afghanistan and Iraq are all war criminals. But the people in vietnam were drafted, they had no choice. Now it's an all volunteer army. They are there by choice. And many of them are brave and good people who thought they were doing the right thing, but those people are enablers for the finger cutting off people. Most of them are multiple murderers. But they're dying for our freedom. Are we free? Can I smoke in peace? On remembrance day, our police cleared out an occupy protest and arrested a bunch of people who were just exercising their right to free speech, and to peaceably assemble to petition the government for a redress of grievances. In America they're just beating them with billy clubs. They should be doing that to the bankers, not a bunch of kids.
(That's right I want a Red Dress of Grievances!! I'd look awesome in that.) ============================================================== So I have done some grinding, and got a lightning washing pole +4. The damage is adequate. I would have preferred an enchanted one, but without giving the lordvessel to frampt or killing the 4 kings, there is no method of farming blue titanite yet. And that's the last washing pole for this game. The darkwraiths aren't as bad as I thought before. I killed the minibosses, and once you start farming them for titanite chunks, they become less frightening. I can probably kill the 4 kings soon. But first I want to go to the painted world. I wanted to grind magic up to 44, but even at 10,000 every minute and a half, 140000 is still 140000. The darkwraiths die to one chaos fireball, the only problem is conserving magic for the fight, and the +4 lightning washing pole can make short work of them. ============================================================== I just fought past the 4 kings. I loved Demon's Souls. Dark Souls made a lot of changes, and I agree with all of them. My only major complaint was that they ruined the lock ons well they fixed the lock ons. Networking could be a bit better but whatever, awesome. Thank you. That's much better. Dark Souls is my favorite game of all time. You fixed my only problem, so I.... wait a minute.... OH MY GOD LOOK WHAT THEY DID TO MY CRYSTAL RING SHIELD!!! THEY'VE RUINED IT!!! THAT WAS MY FAVORITE THING EVER!!! WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING!!?!?!?
:)
Thank you... ============================================================== Stop nerfing things. Right now. You nerfed the Crystal Ring Shield, you nerfed Homing Crystal Soul Mass. I'm at magic 52, my enchanted washing pole is still 5 points weaker than a max upgraded lightning washing pole. Even though I poured 50 levels into magic, it's still weaker than a weapon you don't have to level anything at all to use. It was gaining about 3 points a level, then at 50 all of a sudden it's one point every two levels, meaning it might be as good as the lightning weapon, in about 9 or 10 more levels. You know what my favorite thing in the game was? The Crystal Ring Shield. You know what I was looking forward to more than anything else in the game? Homing Crystal Soul Mass.... Know what I want you to do? Re-break the lock on, and give me back the crystal ring shield and homing crystal soul mass.... That's what I want. The game is perfectly fucking fine as it is, stop nerfing things. ============================================================== Please fix the stat scaling. Look, if you want to make a weapon that's just good and doesn't need high stats, fine, do it. Make the weapon that scales with stats a little better, but don't make it worse. What the hell is that?! So after grinding for weeks and weeks, I get nothing in return. It's not fair. At best I can match the weapon that doesn't scale. It unbalances the game as well. For instance, one player in pvp has an enchanted washing pole +5, one guy has a lightning washing pole +5. Leaving out variance and skill, who will win the fight? Well the mage put all his levels into magic, say magic 55 just to get a weapon equal to the lightning one, a little worse. The other guy, however, didn't bother grinding stats for his weapon, and therefore was able to put say 55 into health. The weapons are the same, but one guy has way more health, he will win. The mage has spells, but in pvp most of the time the spells don't give you much help, it's usually melee combat. To me that's bullshit. I hate that. ============================================================== Hmm... So I killed the Stray Demon, off Camera. Killed him quite easily with Crystal Soul Spear and a few Soul Spears. So I got the titanite slab and made a Lightning Washing Pole +5 for reasons I don't even fully understand, but I did. So now I have a sword that is of equal power to the one I already had, but I don't like it at much because I didn't work to get it. So I'll stick with my enchanted washing pole +5, and switch out depending on enemy weaknesses. Also, Dark Souls BLIND is most likely quite a bit more than one episode of devil summoner. Overall it's probably my most popular video series, strange thing is, on this blog the Dark Souls review is a lot less popular than my Skyrim review, but my Skyrim videos aren't popular at all. Odd.... ============================================================== I have almost completed Dark Souls. I killed Seath, The Four Kings, The Bed of Chaos, And Gravelord Nito. Now it is a quick walk to Gwyn. I have some grinding to do. Need to visit the great hollow. Need to invade, but worried about professional griefers. The LP is almost complete. But I want to bitch about something. The Fog Ring... I traded to get that. Do you know what it does?... Nothing. I remember when I encountered those bandits in the forest with their fog rings that prevented lock on, and I thought great, one day I will have that ring, then I'll bring it into PVP. But they nerfed it. It's Jace the Mind Sculptor syndrome. The strong must have their favorite toys broken, so the game is more fun for the weak. What does it do now? Well you can lock onto them. So it does nothing. If you enjoy the cosmetic appeal of looking invisible you can use the fog ring for that, otherwise, it is effectively useless. Now, truly, the forest covenant doesn't even work anymore. Your reward, for triumphing over many many professional griefers, is nothing. You can buy a good katana. And you can break the covenant and get a good item that way, but working for the forest covenant no longer provides you any reward. The fog ring is exactly equal to the skull lantern. ============================================================== So, I have completed Dark Souls. It is a perfect game. There hasn't been a game so balanced and elegant since go was invented back around the third century BC. Also, I was completely wrong about the magic weapon scaling. First at 61 magic it's already about 503 making it outclass the other katanas by leaps and bounds. Second, I said the spells aren't much help in pvp. That was just plain stupid. The spells are so overpowered in PVP it's almost broken. Compounding that misery by making the enchanted weapons even stronger would be ridiculous. Also, I prefer this magic system to Demon's Souls. It's not that Demon's Souls system was better and this is merely adequate, this is actually a better system. The spells are so powerful, that giving you an unlimited amount would be insanity. The spells will rape every boss in the game in the first one and a half minutes, while the melee classes stumble around the fight for five or ten minutes at a time, often dying repeatedly. Also. Say you're in Demon's Souls and you want to grind while using magic. First you have to grind just to buy old spice, which will eventually run out and you will have to buy it again, and again and again. Whereas here you can simply sit and grind, using an unlimited supply of magic. You have to conserve your spells for the boss fight. But if you have high magic you already have overpowered weapons in the form of enchanted weapons. So you will be as strong as if you had been putting that into strength and dex, but even as you scale your weapon, you are also sharpening your spells. Mages have been catered too, to an almost spoiled and privileged status. The mages have nothing to complain about here. The dark lord ending was adequate. But the good ending is all of fifteen seconds. I would have liked a cool intro like in demon's souls, but.... There is nothing I can find to complain about here. From Software has outdone themselves. Every single game breaking issue in Demon's Souls has been addressed. The problems have been fixed, while retaining the core gameplay, and then expanding on it and improving it. It is, quite simply, the best game I have ever played. And I am quite proud of my video series. If you're not sure, buy it. If you think it looks decent, buy it. If you hate the game, buy it. Go buy this. Now....
In addition, it is much much easier than Demon's Souls, which is another improvement.
"The whole labour of the ancient world gone for naught: I have no word to describe the feelings that such an enormity arouses in me.—And, considering the fact that its labour was merely preparatory, that with adamantine self-consciousness it laid only the foundations for a work to go on for thousands of years, the whole meaning of antiquity disappears!... To what end the Greeks? to what end the Romans?—All the prerequisites to a learned culture, all the methods of science, were already there; man had already perfected the great and incomparable art of reading profitably—that first necessity to the tradition of culture, the unity of the sciences; the natural sciences, in alliance with mathematics and mechanics, were on the right road,—the sense of fact, the last and more valuable of all the senses, had its schools, and its traditions were already centuries old! Is all this properly understood? Every essential to the beginning of the work was ready:—and the most essential, it cannot be said too often, are methods, and also the most difficult to develop, and the longest opposed by habit and laziness. What we have today reconquered, with unspeakable self-discipline, for ourselves—for certain bad instincts, certain Christian instincts, still lurk in our bodies—that is to say, the keen eye for reality, the cautious hand, patience and seriousness in the smallest things, the whole integrity of knowledge—all these things were already there, and had been there for two thousand years! More, there was also a refined and excellent tact and taste! Not as mere brain-drilling! Not as “German” culture, with its loutish manners! But as body, as bearing, as instinct—in short, as reality.... All gone for naught! Overnight it became merely a memory!—The Greeks! The Romans! Instinctive nobility, taste, methodical inquiry, genius for organization and administration, faith in and the will to secure the future of man, a great yes to everything entering into the imperium Romanum and palpable to all the senses, a grand style that was beyond mere art, but had become reality, truth, life....—All overwhelmed in a night, but not by a convulsion of nature! Not trampled to death by Teutons and others of heavy hoof! But brought to shame by crafty, sneaking, invisible, anæmic vampires! Not conquered,—only sucked dry!... Hidden vengefulness, petty envy, became master! Everything wretched, intrinsically ailing, and invaded by bad feelings, the whole ghetto-world of the soul, was at once on top!—One needs but read any of the Christian agitators, for example, St. Augustine, in order to realize, in order to smell, what filthy fellows came to the top. It would be an error, however, to assume that there was any lack of understanding in the leaders of the Christian movement:—ah, but they were clever, clever to the point of holiness, these fathers of the church! What they lacked was something quite different. Nature neglected—perhaps forgot—to give them even the most modest endowment of respectable, of upright, of cleanly instincts.... Between ourselves, they are not even men.... If Islam despises Christianity, it has a thousandfold right to do so: Islam at least assumes that it is dealing with men...."
-Nietzsche
Sorry, I tried to break the quote into pieces, but as usual with Nietzsche, it doesn't work. The damn thing is one gigantic stream of consciousness. It wouldn't make sense, you'd get a third of a sentence. What a crappy review... But damn, those videos are solid gold. Buy this game. If you have the will to defeat it, you will be rewarded for your effort four times over.
He is of course right. Were it not for the parasitism of Christianity, we would all be driving flying cars, on our martian colony. Fucking bastards!!!
"Here it becomes necessary to call up a memory that must be a hundred times more painful to Germans. The Germans have destroyed for Europe the last great harvest of civilization that Europe was ever to reap—the Renaissance. Is it understood at last, will it ever be understood, what the Renaissance was? The transvaluation of Christian values,—an attempt with all available means, all instincts and all the resources of genius to bring about a triumph of the opposite values, the more noble values.... This has been the one great war of the past; there has never been a more critical question than that of the Renaissance—it is my question too—; there has never been a form of attack more fundamental, more direct, or more violently delivered by a whole front upon the center of the enemy! To attack at the critical place, at the very seat of Christianity, and there enthrone the more noble values—that is to say, to insinuate them into the instincts, into the most fundamental needs and appetites of those sitting there.... I see before me the possibility of a perfectly heavenly enchantment and spectacle:—it seems to me to scintillate with all the vibrations of a fine and delicate beauty, and within it there is an art so divine, so infernally divine, that one might search in vain for thousands of years for another such possibility; I see a spectacle so rich in significance and at the same time so wonderfully full of paradox that it should arouse all the gods on Olympus to immortal laughter—Cæsar Borgia as pope!... Am I understood?... Well then, that would have been the sort of triumph that I alone am longing for today—: by it Christianity would have been swept away!—What happened? A German monk, Luther, came to Rome. This monk, with all the vengeful instincts of an unsuccessful priest in him, raised a rebellion against the Renaissance in Rome.... Instead of grasping, with profound thanksgiving, the miracle that had taken place: the conquest of Christianity at its capital—instead of this, his hatred was stimulated by the spectacle. A religious man thinks only of himself.—Luther saw only the depravity of the papacy at the very moment when the opposite was becoming apparent: the old corruption, the peccatum originale, Christianity itself, no longer occupied the papal chair! Instead there was life! Instead there was the triumph of life! Instead there was a great yea to all lofty, beautiful and daring things!... And Luther restored the church: he attacked it.... The Renaissance—an event without meaning, a great futility!—Ah, these Germans, what they have not cost us! Futility—that has always been the work of the Germans.—The Reformation; Leibnitz; Kant and so-called German philosophy; the war of “liberation”; the empire—every time a futile substitute for something that once existed, for something irrecoverable.... These Germans, I confess, are my enemies: I despise all their uncleanliness in concept and valuation, their cowardice before every honest yea and nay. For nearly a thousand years they have tangled and confused everything their fingers have touched; they have on their conscience all the half-way measures, all the three-eighths-way measures, that Europe is sick of,—they also have on their conscience the uncleanest variety of Christianity that exists, and the most incurable and indestructible—Protestantism.... If man kind never manages to get rid of Christianity the Germans will be to blame...."
-Nietzsche
(Throws Roger Ebert into a Woodchipper)
Yes, yes good.... Nietzsche can't possibly sue me.... I CAN STEAL AS MUCH AS I WANT AHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!
So, the savvy viewer will notice that, since The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim just levitated off into the air and turned into pure energy, I will migrate over to Dark Souls. Although I have nothing to say about Dark Souls. I made 22 videos. 22 is enough. We are in fact here to question the morality of Black Osama. Black Osama is exactly what I was just talking about there. When I created that character, I had no idea that all of it was actually true. He is a human monster.
Our choices are now, War with Iran vs War with Iran. And Israel will just start the war whenever they feel like it either way. I have learned to take their boasting seriously. That's probably why they're winding down the other wars, so they can start the next one. And then when they're done with that they'll end that war, and start another one. Perpetual fucking boot.
Black Osama looked over the CIA drone feed direct to his HDTV with relish. He saw a group of terrorists, and his teeth began to grind, the thirst for blood was unquenchable. He sent the missile flying and killed all of the terrorists, but he remained unsatisfied. A few people were crawling around wounded, and an ambulance arrived. Black Osama began to grin. He pushed the red button, BOOM, the ambulance crew was killed. And his spirits started to pick up. The next day he was watching the feed, with a cheese sandwich, and a coke, no cigarettes. These bastards, do you know what they were doing? They were having a funeral for the people he just blew up. Dick Cheney walked into the office. "Sir" he said "There's one terrorist at that funeral." Black Osama replied; "Blow up whole funeral."
The next day a journalist ran up to him and started screaming "But Mr President, I know from my experience that you have killed many civilian victims with your drones in Pakistan, what is your response?"
He said "Daniel, there are no victims, that is just your mental disorder. I will wipe you out completely Daniel. It will be as if you never existed. The party says there are no victims. The party is always right. What do you think happened Daniel?"
"You know what I think. Why bother asking me?" she replied
"I want to hear it in your own words Daniel." He told her.
"I think you blew up funerals with your drones in Pakistan. You killed 60 children! You're a monster!"
"And that is what we must cure you of Daniel. One day you will tell me there are no victims and you will believe it. You will be one of us. We will make you perfect. Only then will we blow your brains out Daniel."
The woman had a black bag put over her head. Black Osama walked up to her, and wrote; "TERRORIST" on her chest in red marker. She was then dragged away to a concentration camp.
100% True... &_4 ============================================================== And as for what I just said there. Yes, I am insane. I thought that was already well established. If my insanity is news to you, you haven't been paying attention. I'm basically the best Jesus you're going to get. If you're waiting around for a better one, you won't find anything else this side of a thousand years. It's not happening. If you believe that Jesus will be here soon, you are considered generally sane. If you believe that Jesus is here in the flesh, you are insane. Does that not mean he will never be here? I don't think what I said there is any more or less insane than what an average Christian believes. Furthermore, what I believe is in fact grounded in reality. It does not stem from a psychotic belief in supernatural powers. It flows directly from my atheism. A christian could never be Jesus, that would be seen as blasphemy. Therefore Jesus will never be a christian. You're not Jesus. I am. If Jesus flies down out of the sky and tells me different, I'll step aside, until then, I'm taking the job. And I have done quite well. The prophecy has been fulfilled, in a more comical and elegant way than a fascist world government putting ID chips in your right hand, or whatever the fuck you believe. ============================================================== It does however appear that my religious statements have scared away the people who've been viewing my Skyrim review. Well whatever, I have my 314, I'm happy. Perhaps in time they will return. ============================================================== Jesus.... Do you know what Alyona has on her commercial? Fucking.... Do you know what she's reading? She's reading: "Stories no one else dares to touch." Man I wish I had that fucking newspaper instead of the crap I've been reading. Then maybe I'd get my own TV show. Like.... Like .... LIKE..... THAT'S THE MOST STUCK UP YOUR OWN ASS THING EVER... It's exactly what I'm talking about! She's an imbecile. That's just so wretchedly stupid.... The scary part. 2 people viewed that revelation thing. I mean it was always intended to be the book of revelation. John eats the little book. But to actually say it, is so insane. Even though down here, I know it's perfectly sane. And most people probably haven't noticed I've moved down here yet. Honestly I'm more of an Antichrist than a Jesus, but I'm stealing them both. We can just resolve all these stupid prophecies, once and for all, in one person. Get that shit out of the way for good, start making new prophecies. This is my sacred text. It is better because it has dinosaurs, and videogames, and weed and stuff. It is much better prose than the bible. Less fruity language, but better and funnier content. A bible that is relevant to modern life. I have frozen in cement, 7 years of brainwashing from you people, your culture, and your politics, which will stand for the rest of eternity. When I am dead and dust, this book will still be here. It will be all that remains of me, and of you. I know, it's a bastard thing to drop that shit on my readers after hundreds of views, but the book has to be interesting, and entertaining, which this is. It will be superseded by whatever I write after that, but it is my doctrine and my ideology in it's purest form. It is bigger than Mein Kampf, crazier than Mein Kampf, angrier than Mein Kampf, and funnier than the bible.
And one day I will resurrect. In one or two thousand years, I will warp someone's brain so badly, that this person actually thinks that they are me. That person is exactly like me. Resurrected. It is theoretically possible that I could resurrect before I even die myself.
"I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee." -Revelation 3:3
I mean, I was actually going to drag that out to support my mental disorder but Jesus I mean.... Dude.... That's what she said. O_O ============================================================== Jesus isn't coming. You're just going to have to accept it. He stood you up. You've got it stuck in your mind that you will only accept a second coming that has magic powers, when the original guy never had any magic powers in the first place. You're going to be waiting forever. It's never going to happen. And it's depressing.... :( ============================================================== So there it is. It is my intention that I will be as high on the left side of the book as I am on right side, without the use of any drugs whatsoever. ============================================================== I finally used liliana's ultimate in my discard deck. I call it Decent Discard. It can win on turn 5, but this time it was turn 13. I had previously used a damnation, and punched him in the face with hymn to tourach and stuff many times. So even though I killed him with the rack, I had like 20 of his own creatures ready to drive over him next turn, with vigilance. =) Good fun. Seriously, to the people that just fucking hate me after reading that drivel, who will now stop viewing the review, sorry. It had to be done, but sorry. ======================================================= Decent Discard

60 cards ============================================================== Today I've been playing a bit of Realm of the Mad God. Not much to say about it, but it has many interesting ideas and plays great. It's like this bullet hell MMO thing. Very weird, but fun. It has permadeath. It's a surprisingly fun game, but it will probably take a while to unlock the level 20 classes without dying. What the hell, I'll just throw that in the ratings, make fruit punch with the others and then adjust them as needed.
I was really enjoying Realm of the Mad God. I was at level 18, just about to unlock the other classes, then I got careless, and died. Bloody fucking hell. Now I have to do all that over again just to maybe unlock the class later. Drink. Feck. Arse. Girls.... ============================================================== So what is it now? It's Quran burning again.... Didn't we just do Quran burning? They think paper and ink is more valuable than human life, basically.... They want human rights for books, that's what this is. Do you know what this is doing? It's making me want to burn qurans.
Iran. So I basically think Iran having a nuclear weapon is a good idea. Consider...
Iran has nuclear weapons. Israel can no longer invade them. World War 3 prevented.
Iran has no nuclear weapons, Israel invades, starts World War 3.
So there is the possibility that if Iran got the bomb then they'd start acting like Israelis. You know, randomly invading their neighbors, killing and torturing innocent people, for fun or something. White Phosphorus. Thousands of Cluster Bombs. Leveling entire villages. Big fucking apartheid piece of shit. But whatever. I'm willing to live with another Israel running around if it stops the war.
Or finally. Ahmadinejad yells "ALLLAAAAAHAKBAR!!!" and his country goes suicide bomber on Israel. And um, well Israel gets what's coming to them. Which I personally find kind of amusing. I might care more about their plight, if they hadn't spent the last decade systematically fucking with my head. You know why I don't really care about that?? BECAUSE OF SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!
Obama. Is. Giving. You. Inspirational. Speeches. ============================================================== It is not 'a few bad apples', it is a pattern of behavior. I have seen the same criminal activity, from 100 different unconnected pigs. The snipers that had an SS flag, for all their human worthlessness, at least were smart enough to understand what is going on. Which is more than can be said for the unquestioning pathetic mutton like public, who still think they're action heroes fighting for freedom. The fucking children's candy delivery squad. I've seen them use live fire on prisoners in a cage, for fun, and laugh about it. I've seen them piss on the bodies of the people they just murdered, and laugh about it. I've seen them run over dead bodies and laugh about it. I've seen them hold a bottle of water out the back of their truck, and laugh as a little child runs for blocks trying to get the clean water, which he never gets. I've seen them kill puppies, and laugh about it. I've seen them murder children, and laugh about it. I've seen them hunt human beings for sport, and cut off their fingers for trophies. I've seen them shoot cars off the road at random while listening to music. I've seen them torture people. I've seen them strip prisoners naked and sick dogs on them, and make giant pyramids of rape. That is just what I've seen, and not all of it, by far. They seem to have a pretty sick sense of humor. They are nazi stormtroopers, period. You are an idiot, period.
Oh and thanks google for your new privacy policy, where everything I put into a search engine will now be handed over to a corporation to help advertise to me. "Gee he searched for Spanking Detention House Internal Affairs. LOL!! Ok let's advertise disturbing rape sites and... transvestites or something".... Fuck you google. Fuck you." ============================================================== You know why I don't like Obama? Here's why I don't like Obama. You're renovating your house. You look in the phone book for someone to paint the interior of the house. You find an ad that says "Best House Painter in the City!!" You check out his internet site there's all these glowing testimonials. So you call him up and hire him to paint your house. The next day he shows up with a crew of painters. You leave to let them work. 10 hours later you come back to the house. He hasn't done the job you hired him for. He's just sitting in your livingroom with his friends, eating your food, and watching your HDTV. He leaves. The work still isn't done, and he raided the fridge. A few weeks later you get the bill. $2000.... That's why I don't like Obama.... ============================================================== I bought mediocre Final Fantasy 13-2, because it was the only game I haven't played. But I should have waited one day and bought mediocre Silent Hill, which would have been much better than mediocre Final Fantasy 13-2.
But this game is better than Final Fantasy 13 for one reason. Because Lightning is an insane woman riding a chocobo. I do not understand why she is on a chocobo, and she's throwing moogles at me, and there's explosions for reasons that make no sense. But at least her sister is kind of attractive, in a stupid kind of way.
They insist this is non linear. And I will play anything non linear. But somehow, I doubt they're going to give me the option of mass murdering everyone at at every dialogue branch, which is a shame, because if they did it would probably be one of my favorite games ever.
They have forgotten what made Final Fantasy great. Kefka poisoned the water, and then laughed about it. Sephiroth murdered Aeris in cold blood. And hey Algus, he shot Teta with a crossbow. That was cold. See it was never the retarded set of protagonists who do, indeed sound like chapters from a self help booklet. It was the guy murdering everyone, he's the one you'll thank, mark my words. If he didn't poison the water, the plot goes nowhere.... That's all.
And not some weird homosexual guy fighting because he put his wife in the river. WHY DIDN'T I BUY SILENT HILL!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I lost my mind.... that's the problem.... Went completely insane.... How can you screw up silent hill? Look.... If the combat is bullshit, I will chalk it up to it being a silent hill game, but there better be a good story, or the only escaped prisoner running from his crashed bus, will be me, because I murdered Hironobu Sakaguchi. After Video 100 I'm LPing Devil Summoner 2. With a broken save game full of demons. ============================================================== Also another reason I'm better than Jesus and Muhammad is that I have no magic powers, of any kind. I don't need that cheap crap, my message is superior. Buddha.... Well Buddha's got me. But who cares about Buddha?
I can't believe I'm saying this. I hate being bullshitted by Obama more than I ever hated George Bush. The fact that this idiot can walk out on stage and give the same bullshit inspirational speech, and he has such a low opinion of us that he thinks we'll still believe him, even though he just stabbed us in the back 14 times. On policy he's worse than Bush. The new republicans are even more right wing, but they're only doing that to keep up with Obama. When I see that bastard feed me the same bullshit line, with a straight face, I want to jump through the screen and drive my thumbs into his eyes. I would rather just elect a republican to office, than this 'friend'. ============================================================== Don't buy silent hill downpour. Just don't.... :( For the price of these two games I could have bought a Force of Will. How bitterly depressing. And unlike these games, which will plummet in value within 5 months, Force of Will would retain it's value. It might even increase in value. I played silent hill for about an hour, all atmosphere, no monsters. The only violent thing I've seen so far was when I made his character kill the prison guard woman. That was amusing. It will probably improve..... But apparently the combat is not only bullshit, but overemphasized as well. How can you get silent hill wrong... 5 times? Now if you'll excuse me I have to watch Game Change. Incidentally my game is progressing at a steady rate with impressive results, but my initial 4 week estimates were a bit loopy. All I can say now is that it will be finished "Sometime in April". Sorry. ============================================================== So here's an idea. There should be a maximum wage and a maximum total wealth. For instance, what the fuck do you need more than a hundred million dollars for? Planning on buying a small country? No, everything after a hundred million dollars should be taxed away and given to the poor. Just cut their fucking dick right off... Oh and, yeah I mean, that stuff I said about the soldiers, obviously I was wrong about that, which was proved when within four days of writing it some drunken soldier murdered 9 children and some other people for kicks. So clearly I was mistaken, and I apologize. ============================================================== Theists bring up the fact that energy can never be created or destroyed, to assert that something cannot come from nothing, as evidence that god must have created the universe. This is just stupid. You know what this is? If you have a lighter, you can start a fire. Therefore, you can start fires underwater. Also, the bacterial flagellum is not proof of intelligence. It is the proof of stupidity. ============================================================== Weird Cephalids

60 cards ============================================================== Silent Hill Downpour is a tragedy. Not because it isn't the Masterpiece it should easily be in this generation. No... It's a tragedy because it could have been OK. It could never have been good, but it didn't have to be a total piece of shit, it could have been ok. The story is solid spooky fun. The graphics are nice. The premise had the potential to be great. Even the combat is alright. It could have been fun. But some fucking cheesehead got it in his thick skull that it would be fun to give every enemy in the game a grapple attack, which they spam even more often than normal attacks, and then you have to shake the stupid controller to get away again, and again, and again. I despise that. The combat is fine, everything is fine, why did you do that? Are you retarded? Seriously did someone walk up to you when you were a kid and smack you in the head with a brick? It didn't have to be like this. It could have been mediocre.... It could have been ok. But you had to take a perfectly good cake, and ice the whole fucking thing with your feces. So fuck you.
And as for weapons breaking. I hate you. You are stupid. Don't do that. It is not, in any way shape or form, fun, to have to keep picking up new weapons again and again and again because your weapon keeps breaking. Weapon degradation can be acceptable in the right hands. But this is weapon degradation on crack, in the hands of a criminal lunatic. This is all I'm going to say about Silent Hill Downpour. I will play it. It's possible I will comment further, but I doubt it. Those fucking grapple moves, will ruin the game for me, no matter how amazingly acceptable it might turn out to be. Which is a shame, because I was having fun. I don't regret the buy. But I wouldn't recommend it. ============================================================== So, a young woman in Pakistan who had acid thrown in her face, has killed herself. Wonderful. That's wonderful news. Because he only threw acid in her face because she was misrepresenting what he said....
Canada..... (facepalms) Do you know what they did here? Do you know what they legalized? Prostitution.... Fucking great..... Now I can go to all the whores I want, legally. Whores are disgusting. So I will just remain celibate. I campaign my whole life for legalizing weed. They legalize prostitution.... YOU LEGALIZED THE WRONG ONE!!! YOU FUCKING MORON!! This has exactly zero impact on my life. I would be happier to learn that they were toughening the prostitution laws, and decriminalizing pot. I don't care about prostitutes. Let me make this perfectly clear. I am tired of living my life in your sewer, because you have a brain that doesn't work! I want my freedom and I want it now. And that is why I am voting liberal.
The NDP. Well they're kind of a dinosaur party on pot. Irrelevant. Their new leader?..... Well they.... They chose the guy that was the best at speaking french, is what they did. As far as I can tell they're continuing the fine Jack Layton tradition of giving the entire country to Harper so they can win a few seats. Next on the agenda, Give Ontario to Harper, for 12 seats..... And in 2015, I'll vote liberal, because I don't care if it's a donkey that brings me my freedom, as long as I'm free. That donkey is my hero. No other issue matters, at all.... And that goes quadruple for your wars, and your stupid economy. I don't care. I want my freedom. If Stephen Harper gives me my freedom then he's my new best friend. If Iran invades Canada and legalizes weed, they're my new best friend. Death to America!! Allahakbar!! I don't care. If I had to kill 5 million people to legalize weed, I'd do it with a song in my heart. But you can take your prostitutes, and go fuck them.
I hate you, and I hope you all pay for this. ============================================================== Baccano! - Review
Baccano is the best thing ever. Shut up Cenk.... Just shut up, and watch Baccano! What's that Cenk? You've already seen Baccano!? Well fuck you Cenk, go watch Baccano!
That said, there were certain issues I had which prevented me from being completely at peace with the series. First of all, the comic relief characters never made chocolate bars out of the Grand Panacea, and passed them out to the general public. Just.... Well *spoilers* The kid that devours Szilard Quates, never becomes so absorbed by his insane ambition, that he murders his former friend to learn the secret for himself. And that kid.... What the hell is his story? His big plan in going on the train was that he was taking a train to another city to meet someone. He had no plan at all. He should have just taken an earlier train. And here you had this cast of characters that was so vast, but everyone was so important that you couldn't kill 70% of the cast. Except the immortals who you can kill as many times as you want. Any of those suggestions, if implemented, would destroy the Anime. But if you don't know what I'm talking about, Shame on you, Shame on you Cenk. Go watch Baccano!
What's that Cenk?? Yeah.... Well fuck you Cenk!! I don't believe you. Go watch it a second time!! You bastard....
It is better than Elfen Lied. Way better. I am still quite fond of elfen lied, it is a more human and emotional story, and the violence has more impact, this is verging on Spawn comics or something. Still. 10/10. As an anime. As a videogame.... Well it's not a videogame, so as a videogame I would have to rate it 0. One of the worst videogames ever made. Which is still way better than atrocities like Jekyll & Hyde and Ethnic Cleansing.
Best story ever written as far as I'm concerned. (so far) ============================================================== So, I am still a staunch Liberal supporter. Why? Because the liberals are the best pot party ever. Their budget is a big piece of poo. But I'm willing to put up with a certain level of stupidity in my pot parties. That said, I have to give the NDP credit. What are they doing? They're holding the liberals hostage. Instead of unconditional support of the liberals, which would have communicated weakness. They are operating from a position of strength. They have started issuing a list of demands. And if the Liberals refuse to give, the government falls. What are their demands? Steal from the rich, give that money to Brendan. I have to say I like that plan. If you were to propose taxing a bunch of money away from the rich, and then just putting it in a big pile and burning it. I would support that. But the fact that they want to tax the rich, and use it to increase ODSP payments, which the liberals proposed freezing, makes me smile.
Harper.... What's Harper doing? He's spending 25 billion dollars on fighter jets. Then he's going to spend another 10 billion on spiderman comic books. Do you have any idea how many subways we could build with that?? I hate you Harper. I hope the next time you go on a plane, it explodes. And if you're reading this, I hope you kill yourself. ============================================================== "Because truly, a bad friend is worse than an enemy. A bad friend poisons the mind. You elect him on a platform of change, but then he just continues the Bush policies. Every hope you ever had in him is dismissed. And all new hopes are also destroyed, because you can't vote it out. On that day, you will see, that democracy, is crap."
-Buddha, The Dhammapada, Chapter 6, Verse 44 ============================================================== Realm of the Mad God.... I still insist that it is an excellent game. But I have had a difficult time picking it up again since my level 19 necromancer died. I was on a train grinding, then suddenly we were all summoned to fight the mad god. We gallantly fought through enemy after enemy. Destroying them all like a swarm of bees. Then the enemies began to get more difficult. A few stragglers started dying in front of us. We pressed onward, secure in the knowledge that the best items in the game awaited us at the final boss. Near as I can tell, the better players continued onward, while the others formed a doomed group that was then preyed upon by high level enemies and killed one after another. I was one hit KO'd by some stupid enemy, and died. I just cannot bring myself to play the game again and grind for another 2 hours to get that fucking necromancer to level 20. So I guess the game was a success in all of it's goals. If the mad god summons me, I will immediately nexus out. Fuck that.... It is decent, playable. Surprisingly playable for a free game. It's better than a lot of commercial games. But I will probably never play it again because of permadeath. My favorite feature?... Permadeath. ============================================================== So Bill Clinton right... He said he smoked weed, but he didn't inhale. WELL WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!?! That's so pathetically stupid. What the fuck did he do?! Did he just get a bunch of smoke in his cheeks and not breathe in and then spit it all out? Did he pretend to smoke but not actually do anything?? That's like saying;
Human: Did you ever eat steak? Subhuman: I had steak one time, but I didn't eat. Human: What? Subhuman: Yeah I just chewed the meat up in my teeth, and then spit it into my napkin. Human: That's what she said.
We are getting wildly off track here. But it is ludicrous gibberish when you really think about it. It invokes visions of a ridiculous buffoon in action. Why didn't you try inhaling it you fool? It's good.
Journalist: Do you believe that people should be sent to prison for marijuana? Barack Obama: Yes. That is the right thing to do. Journalist: Did you ever smoke marijuana? Barack Obama: Yes. In the past. Journalist: Can you name one reason why you shouldn't be sitting in prison right now, except for the fact that you are a complete fucking hypocrite?? Barack Obama: This interview is over!!
Stephen Harper: Hello. Me: Hello Stephen. Why did you have to make me live in a toilet, your toilet, no less?? Why do you have to take a crap on my life, every single day of yours? Stephen Harper: THIS INTERVIEW IS OVER!!! Me: I don't see how it's any business of yours whatsoever!! Stephen Harper: (Storms Out) ============================================================== Here is the temporary link to the demo of my RMXP game: http://www.mediafire.com/?duszsaqmtc62r2w If completely and utterly spoiling the video isn't a problem for you, and you are curious, then by all means try it out and see what I have done so far. What you have here is the first four floors of Babel. It could never possibly live up to the months of hype I have generated over this stupid thing, but I think it's a fun 25 minutes. Way better than Final Fantasy 6, way better. For 25 minutes at least. ============================================================== I dreamt that Sommersby was alive. I tried explaining to my mother that he was dead, and that this couldn't be real. My mother cried.
Later that night I dreamt about my orange cat that died, he was horribly injured. ============================================================== Prototype 2 - (mini review)
I like Prototype 2. Go to hell. There's nothing wrong with it. It's a perfectly good game. It's not a masterpiece, it's not the best game in the world, but it's decent. It's technically beautiful, and running around the city is genuine fun. For the kind of scores this game is getting the game should be glitching out like a motherfucker, or so fundamentally broken that it is effectively ruined. People were like; Troll: This game doesn't do anything that hasn't been done before! Well fuck you, what other game is like this? What game gives you this kind of power in a fun open world with this level of violence? As far as I know there are no other games like this, at all. Maybe there's a bunch of open world masterpieces I've missed, but that would be quite surprising, because I've been watching like a hawk. The only other game that's like this is Prototype 1. And you can't fucking fault a sequel for being like the first game, that's deeply stupid. I'll say it again, a game doesn't have to innovate to be good, at all. Innovation is great, but it doesn't matter as much as say, quality. If a game takes an established concept, and does it better than anyone else on the market, that also drives the industry forward. And for some reason innovation goes out the window whenever the next call of duty or halo comes along. Halo hasn't innovated, since Halo 1. Prototype 2 is just stupid fun. Crazy violent comic book action. The videogame equivalent of a Die Hard movie. This is what it feels like to be a supervillain. Running around that city, throwing people off of high buildings, is some of the best fun I've had in months. And also, the civilians are way better, they used to be useless cows. But now, biobomb. The people aren't useless anymore, you can inject them with poison and throw them like grenades. This is so much more fun than a stupid GTA game or a Saint's Row. Way better. Way better.
If I were in charge of the game this is what I would change. First, add children and babies to the spawnable civilians, because who's making the game, and hey I mean Skyrim did it and got away with it. So now it's ok. But primarily, multiplayer. If you had this kind of power in pvp, that would be like Superman fighting Spawn. That would not only innovate, it would also rule and be the best thing ever. But may be technically impossible at this point. The story is a horrible poo but at least it's not as stupid as GTA 4 or Saints Row 2, the story is kind enough to get out of the way quickly and let me kill things. I don't care about his dead wife, I just want to throw people off buildings. I want to run through the streets at 90mph, grab some random woman then run up the highest building in the city, and throw her into the horizon.
Troll: This game is just a destruction simulator!
That's bad?.... That's supposed to be bad?... O_O What's wrong with a destruction simulator? I like destruction. I like slashing people into little pieces. Cutting them in half, and impaling them on weird tendrils that rip them into five pieces and hang them around the buildings like a bunch of tin cans tied to a rope. I have never seen human beings dehumanized better than what I have seen in this game. This dehumanization is perfect. They should give them the Dehumanization Award for Excellence.
I will elaborate on this later, but there will be no further formal review. I like the game. It is not the Mona Lisa, it's just good. Not great, good. That's all. (9.5) ============================================================== So um.... For about 20 minutes I turned into a bullshit apologist or something. Here's what I wrote:
"The universe beginning reminds me of an equation. X=0 X^1=(A single point) X^2=(A line) X^3=(A 3 Dimensional Object) People talk about how if the universe had more or less matter, then we'd either be flung apart so fast there would be no life, or we'd all be collapsed into a singularity. Here is my random assertion. I imagine that an infinite amount of energy is pouring through the void into the universe. And when the exact correct amount of energy is present, the equations are satisfied, (that's what she said) and the portal to the outside disappears."
I was working on a sitcom script, where Sean Penn and Bill Murray are living in a submarine with a talking dog. Here is the script:
Sean Penn: Did you hear that one of Obama's secret service agents ran over a woman, and while she was on the ground dying he got out of the car and said: ‘I’m on the job, I’m on the job,’?
Bill Murray: I'm just glad the secret service is that incompetent, because I'm praying for a sniper.
Now.... The Quran.... Look. I read the Quran. If that book was the mind of God, then God is not any smarter than a normal human. That book, is not much better than my book. And he spent 40 years writing it. It is also stunningly violent rhetoric. And irredeemably backwards and bigoted. He should have called it: "My Angry Book of Amazing Prejudice"
He can't go five paragraphs without threatening to kill and/or torture someone. O_II
He's exactly like me, in every way. Except now you're not stupid enough to fall for it. ============================================================== So this bill that makes masks illegal at protests, is quite bullshit. If you show up at a protest in a george bush mask, you are subject to arrest and several years imprisonment. Stupid anonymous face? You are now subject to arrest and imprisonment. Same deal with a full body mascot costume. Arrest and imprisonment. And thousands of dollars in fines. Which ruins my day. At first the language was this was for riots, but within a day it had already changed to be all protests. So fuck you, for that. Sorry to talk about worthless Canadian politics, but I can't help it I live here.
PS: Dreamt I was fighting an especially frightening boss, that lived underground. I was going to stand on a ledge and throw poison at him. ============================================================== http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-WkNebzGXg&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eLLi1dimqY&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpW3cz0i7X4&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAd4orbkaaY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28i1URb6LCI&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 5) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIzN2cCtpYI&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 6) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ijpjodpygmw&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 7) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llKq4V86V0E&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 8) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceFU0FLd18Y&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 9) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H11pLGX7k1M&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 10) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD2bks4k_OU&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 11) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IahMm6MKebE&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 12) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gf3pvwCCUkU&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 13) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHbi8nQGJ1g&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 14) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ3Ct44x4z0&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 15) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuduO7nHAPg&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 16 - And The Binding of Isaac - One Shot) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmsdoSGYdjg&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 17) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INuvZTf31Cg&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 18) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBMUx71a_tM&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 19) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kULfo-u8SFM&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 20) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-GgAMu3WLI&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 21) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Br4_ozh1myo&feature=youtube_gdata (Let's Play Dark Souls - BLIND - Part 22) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLjI42jjf6U&feature=youtu.be (100th Video "Fuck the 100th Video" Spectacularrr {Prototype 2}) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZAZzbN_ABw&feature=youtu.be (Let's Play and Hate Final Fantasy XIII-2)

I was a little uncertain at first, but Deus Ex Human Revolution is the real thing. Almost everyone is killable. Excepting a few no-kill areas, practically everywhere you go gives you free reign in regards to your choice of targets. For instance, in the first real mission, you can save the hostages, or you can execute them one by one. You rescue a man's wife and he invites you to his apartment, where you can kill him and his wife. On the streets, there's a lot of cops. But they aren't invincible cops. If you can manage to kill them all, the civilians would be yours to do with as you like. Shame this appears to be a children don't exist game, but that still beats the crap out of an unkillable kids game. The sidequest NPCs, almost all killable. You can kill the woman who wants you to investigate the death of her daughter. Merchants can be killed. Gang members can be killed. If you don't make much noise or you're out of earshot, the cops don't even notice. There's silenced weapons as well. You can talk your way through the police station, or sneak through... But if you want you can just massacre the entire police station and take whatever information you need. Basically this game does it all right. What seemed at first to be a standard COD clone, it now turning into a prototype for everything I think a game should be. It is an extremely faithful sequel, keeping almost everything that made the first game great. You can't kill any homeless kids, but I never expected a modern developer to have any stones in the first place. It's excellent, superb actually, and again gamespot is giving it an 8.5. As good as fallout dlc as good as basion, etc, etc. That's a crime. I almost wonder if they're going to pull this crap with dark souls or the new elder scrolls. Dirt is better, according to gamespot, Dirt.... This is exactly how a game should be. A rich living world, that you can kill. If you were good enough you could probably depopulate the entire place. To kill is always better when there is the option not to kill. The more that option is catered for, the more enjoyable the kill will be. It's a spectacular game, and I've only played about 3 hours. It is surprisingly good. It is refreshing.
I have decided to test the game. I am going to depopulate most of the city, and kill the entire police station. I want to see if the game can compensate, can I continue? Is there a reaction, and if so, what? But the police station is proving more resistant than I anticipated. I really should have played on easy. I'm even thinking of restarting on easy. Still I've killed about half of them and I am confident I can eliminate the rest of the police soon. I'm probably causing more work for myself than normal, but I have to see how far I can take the game.
One problem I have with the game is that it doesn't appear to offer any kind of new game +. Which is a shame, because then you could max out your character, and the early stages would be much easier. That would have been fun.
So I killed off the police station and got the brain chip. Couldn't really do much without hacking, but it was fun, if nothing else. But rather than turn in the mission, I got bogged down killing gang members. It seemed like there were only 4 or 5, but actually there were about 40. Also the game is really miserly with the ammo. Each gun the enemy drops gives 1 to 4 bullets, far less than what it takes to kill them. And when fighting they appear to have infinite ammo. A bit unfair. I keep running low. Awesome game though. That complaint is like saying the mona lisa could use more color. It is a very good game. For shame, call of duty, for shame!....
Here's one problem, too many people, not enough bullets.... ====================================================== Fine, fine, it's a great card I guess. And if you want to spend 520 dollars so you can break combos, go right ahead. I'm not stopping you. ====================================================== So as for how I played the game. My first personal act was to murder the ex cop that gave me the info on the police station. Nobody heard anything. I dragged him up the stairs. Then I dropped him in the hallway and walked into the couple's apartment. They thanked me for rescuing them, advised me about a discount with the gun dealer, then I walked into the hallway and dragged the dead ex cop around in front of them. The woman began screaming and running around, I chased her down and killed her with the elbow sword. The husband just whimpered and begged for his life. I murdered him. My next main goal was to murder the entire police station. It was a hell of a thing to do. I managed to get past the start by simply running into the bathroom and then watching through the walls and killing anyone who tried to go through the door. Killed most of them that way, eventually culled the rest of them one by one and got the quest information. The weird part was when I walked outside nobody said anything. I talked to the cops outside but none of them noticed anything. Later I returned to the station and hacked the crooked cop's computer, then broke into the chiefs office for kicks. For some reason after that the police outside were trying to kill me. So I killed them off one by one, until the streets were clean. Then I cleansed the streets until there was no one left. Also, instead of killing the dealers for that quest guy, I decided it was funnier to make the kid's blackmail problems worse by making him an accessory to murder. So I just went invisible, killed him off with the stealth pistol, killed the other two, then quietly silenced the other witnesses, and dragged everybody into the apartment building in a big pile. And that's the gist of it so far. It plays exactly the same as the first deus ex did for me before. There's.... asians..... I want to go to china. Boss was no fun. Had to throw an emp grenade at him, then throw the chemicals at him, then throw a barrel at him, then throw another barrel at him, then shoot an entire clip into his brain. I got invisibility, see through walls, fastest recharge, and some hacking. It's extremely impressive. =================================================== So what did Israel do? They're handing out tear gas and stun grenades to settlers, in anticipation of the vote for palestinian statehood at the UN. That's what god wanted all along, for you to hand out tear gas and stun grenades to be used on civilians, how did I miss it? It's the perfect plan! But that's ok, we can trust them with those. Obviously they won't abuse them, they are settlers after all, the most wonderful people in the world. I'm sure they'll only use them if it's really necessary. Plus they got that law where if you support bds you get sent directly to prison and fined 70,000 dollars by anyone without having to prove damages. I don't remember if I mentioned that one. Here in Israel, we have free speech like you don't get in those arab countries! Yeah they're out and out fascist. The amount of suffering they can squeeze into that tiny little country, is quite remarkable. You can't even see Israel on the map, but it's the worst atrocity on the planet. Also this song was in my mind all day, for some reason, it goes:
No, I don't want no scrublands, scrublands are the lands that don't get no scrub from me, hanging out the tropical isle of his bayou taiga tryin' to underground sea.
It's horrible I know, but I had to write it down anyway.... *shudder* Without my eldrazi deck I am severely weakened, at least until I can get the 1 turn kill working, even though the 4 gaea's cradles are wonderful. Next year, I'm going to get some money from the government again, when that happens, I'm buying 4 underground sea, 4 watery grave, 3 jace the mind sculptor, and 4 mana drain, and I can build around that. =================================================== Yeah force of will is awesome. Still way too expensive, but many of the best decks are running it. Clearly my earlier comments were very foolish. =================================================== I am thinking of doing an evil playthrough of Deus Ex Human Revolution, because everyone on the entire internet is only interested in stealthily sneaking up to people and knocking them out. Never killing a civilian. Never purging the streets of all life. I would be happy enough watching someone else do an evil let's play, but if they're all intent on being good, I might have no alternative.
Because of your failure to prosecute the torturers, your bankruptcy, and your corruption, directly follow. The laws are already in place, you simply lack the courage to enforce them. It is a messy business impeaching and prosecuting your own presidents, but the alternative is to let them run amok. You have laid the foundation for aggressive war, and torture, as official policy. A 21st century nazi germany, in other words. Hitler lite. Way fewer torture chambers. Way fewer casualties. The internal repression, is generally tolerable. The money is gone. The game is don't be hitler, and we win.
The game is awesome. The worlds are so detailed. So much to explore. Also they have FEMA camps. That's right FEMA camps! Remember when Alex Jones was telling us we were all going to be sent to FEMA camps? Well they're in this videogame. Also, how long until those swine flu vaccines start killing us all? I got mine and I'm fine so far. I guess we'll see.
Why am I not reviewing the game much? Look I'm too busy playing Deus Ex Human Revolution to worry about writing a review of Deus Ex Human Revolution.
It's one of the best games ever made. Call of Duty black ops is unplayable. That got 5 points higher. Their ultimate best game of all time is super meat boy. With it's stupid artificial difficulty. It wasn't bad, it wasn't that good. It was just a fad. I liked it. I rated it with Dragon Age 2, Team Fortress 2, Amnesia and Oblivion, because I was being generous. This is starting to piss me off. The new deus ex is unquestionably game of the year so far. Just give it a 9. But no, that honor is reserved for black ops, which was so vile I was physically unable to continue playing it after 7 minutes.
I'm going to record a test run of Deus Ex, where I kill all of the prostitutes in Shanghai. If it works I'll post it, but my machine is modest, and often cannot do such things.
I think the strength of a game is in how much it allows you to fuck around without doing the main objectives. This is rich in that and I appreciate it.
{This post was destroyed by Christianity. Remember kids, say no to Christianity!} =================================================== Also do you know why I am right and you are wrong? Take Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Add dismemberment. Is the game better? Yes. Argument over. =================================================== I really want to make a good caw blade deck. So I traded in some of my treasured dual lands for a couple of batterskulls and some stoneforge mystics. But the deck is only partly built. I need more jaces, and those mana drain wouldn't hurt. I'm not even playing blue right now. I just have a pure white mystic deck with some hearthfire hobgoblins. I had 8 extra spaces so I added grindstone and painter's servant. Got some quietus spikes in there, jittes. It's a very average deck right now, but it's fun anyway. 1 loss 1 win. =================================================== So I finally sold the last of my dual lands. 1 tropical island left to sell for other purchases. The next time I see my friend I'm hoping he won't "exile target traitor from your clan." for selling them. But I got many nice cards for those lands. I'm now running 2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor, 4 stoneforge 3 batterskull, with a sword of fire and ice, a sword of body and mind, and a sword of light and shadow. So I can just tutor whatever protection is relevant. Honestly I'm not expecting higher than a 50% win ratio, but it's a fun deck. I love these cards. Caw Blade dominated standard for a while. Legacy, it's still good, but you're playing against far more serious enemies. I didn't buy the most terrifying deck. All the cards I traded for don't add up to anything to equal that 5 color eldrazi deck. I am sad about losing the eldrazi deck, but I got a lot of great cards, and I'll probably buy it back. In fact if I ever make 80 grand a year at a real game company, I'll probably be running 4 force of wills. =================================================== Hob Blade
White Spells: Wrath of God x2 Elspeth, Knight-Errant Mirran Crusader x4 Oblivion Ring x3 Stoneforge Mystic x4
Blue Spells: Jace, the Mind Sculptor x2 Control Magic x1 Fabricate x2
Artifacts: Batterskull x4 Sword of Light and Shadow Sword of Fire and Ice Sword of Feast and Famine Sword of Body and Mind Quietus Spike x3 Umezawa's Jitte Painter's Servant x4 Sol Ring Grindstone x4
Land: Glacial Fortress x4 Sejiri Refuge x4 Karakas Plains x6 Island x5
60 cards
=================================================== I threw in Karakas and replaced Hearthfire Hobgoblin with Mirran Crusader, which at the time I thought was strictly better, because it has protection from black and green, and summons a bit easier, but actually it was just strictly weirder. For instance Mirran Crusader is wearing sword of fire and ice, painter's servant makes everything green, crusader has protection from everything, sword of fire and ice falls off. Painter's servant picks blue, crusader has protection from blue, the sword falls off. Painter's servant picks white, the sword stays equipped. Depending on what I want to equip, painter's servant has to pick the correct color or it falls off. Light and shadow I pick blue. Fire and ice I pick white. Body and mind I pick red. Or if protection from everything helps then black or green...... My head hurts. =================================================== Added feast and famine. The protection can be a bit redundant for my mirran crusaders, but equipped to a batterskull it provides almost total protection from infect, and will allow me to more easily bounce the batterskull if I get in trouble. It cries out for counterspells, but I can't find a place for them. Perhaps I could replace fabricate and control magic with 4 counterspells, but that makes me cringe. And to make good use of it I'd probably need more than 4 counters. I won't for now, but I'm sideboarding counterspell. Also sideboarding Nihil Spellbomb and Energy Flux. =================================================== So what did America do? Well a bunch of soldiers broke into somebody's home and handcuffed a bunch of women and children, then murdered them for their own personal gratification and called in an air strike on the house. People frame it like they're these wounded heroes sacrificing everything for their country, but really they're just assholes like this. A million dead. =================================================== Most of these atheists are just Christians that don't believe in god. Nothing new has been created. I went crazy with foil. Bought foil basic white, foil basic blue, foil sejiri refuge, foil glacial fortress, another batterskull, foil oblivion ring, 4 foil mirran crusaders, foil quietus spike, and foil fabricate and a tinfoil hat. Or in other words, I bought all the crappy cards in foil. If you see a non-foil card, run. I wanted a foil stoneforge mystic but the only bot I could find wanted 10 each. Pointless, and I am several maelstrom archangels poorer. Also I don't even play the game, but it makes me happy. Shiny. Pretty.
Today is the 10th anniversary of 9/11. I was hoping I'd get to cover some kind of terror attack, but it's looking like nothing is happening, so I'll just tell you about what I was doing that day. We were driven home from school by a student's parent, and during the course of the trip we were told about the attacks. They stopped, let me out of the car, and I walked the last block home. I remember thinking how much I didn't care about it. It meant nothing to me. When I got home I saw my mother watching the television, and she was crying. She was crying for all the people that died. She said "Oh you know what Bush is like." She was crying for the people Bush was going to kill. I left the house, and went to the skateboarder area, and met with my friends. They were all jubilant. Happy. I remember them saying something like. "Yeah its sad for the people and all, but wasn't that the coolest thing you've ever seen!" =================================================== I snapped and bought the Foil Stoneforge Mystic. It's got to be pretty rare, considering how I could only find one place that was selling it. I think I was ripped off a bit, but I am happy with the purchase. And now I have to buy back 4 maelstrom archangels at some point later on. I sold a great deck, for a bunch of foil cards. The equivalent as I see it is of selling pieces of your rolls royce, until it became unusable, so you can get a gold plated honda civic. =================================================== Don't believe Obama again. Don't let him get your hopes up. As far as I can tell the only reason he's doing this is because he knows it will be defeated in the republican congress. It's an easy way to win support without actually doing anything. When the republicans kill the bill, it will also be a good political weapon. He has made good on none of his promises, except to expand the war in afghanistan. Perhaps he will surprise me and get a jobs bill passed, but I wouldn't bet money on it. Not with this guy. But perhaps with election season on the way he might be starting to notice all those angry, disenfranchised voters he used to call support. Time to start lying again. Pass the bill, then we'll talk. =================================================== Hmm.... I just had a nice friendly match with an infect fellow. Cheered me right up. My depression, was quite bitter, and weakening. I missed 3 critical junctures that would have allowed me to take grade 9 math. I could have showed up on the first day, but I wanted to play deus ex that was just released. The second day, I was at the school, but went to the wrong door. I left in frustration, because I was very tired. Then finally on the 3rd or 4th day I applied there was no places in math, so I applied for Keyboarding for 2 days and was going to switch to math, but I couldn't find the yellow paper, because it was in my wallet, and could have applied with a new id but thought my other id would work. Stupid, very very stupid. But whatever, 2 or 3 months and I'll return.
The mirran crusader performed well against infect, and the quietus spike with double strike works well. He couldn't really defend with protection. I had no blue, at all, had jace, but no blue. Had Karakas, oddly. It was a fun match but none of my good plans happened, it was just a brawl with the crusader.
Here is the game I would like to make. Zelda, on snes, in terms of general gameplay style. To keep things simple, and cut down on the number of people necessary. A randomly generated zelda with a static plot. Quite simply, a world is generated through procedural generation. Dungeons, the open world, all generated randomly. There would be different types of levels, for instance deserts, forests, ruined cities, etc. But there would also be non random elements. This town will spawn somewhere at random, the end game boss level will spawn somewhere else. This story element spawns here, this one spawns there. So there are a lot of static characters, and though I don't like the idea of any of it being necessary to complete the game, there would be a linear story you could follow. So although the game would always have the same general story and the same characters, every time it would be different, they would be somewhere else, you would have to explore. Next, crafting. Your general minecraft assortment of crafting options. You can build houses, towns, cities, castles. They will populate with citizens and plot characters. So you can build a home for yourself, and make your own city. Then, all of this would be available in single player, but you could also create a randomly generated world online, that you would be king of. You can either create a world or invade somebody else's. So you can have static characters that can be killed off. The invaders could be friends, or they might be there to kill you, blow up your houses, and take over your cities. So people would build these nice cities, and then gangs of high level thugs would move into town, kill you, dethrone you, and take over. Which is why you need to hire a lot of security. Nothing wrong with that, that would be fun. They could build it right now if they wanted. Surely with a bit of knowledge and some like minded people, this could be accomplished. Also standard demon's souls, deus ex, kill anyone system. Also you dismember people and spray blood everywhere, single player experience would carry over to multiplayer. It would be fun. People would be building cities, others would be out to destroy. Friends would unite against griefers. The end game boss could be fought at any time, you would merely require sufficient skill. Kinda stuff... that's what I think about.... =================================================== I watched the tea party debates. It reminded me of a rally of the NSDAP in 1928. These people are cretins. There is no equality in our respective positions, one is a normal human being, the other is a slavering beast. Literally cheering at the mention of record executions. At one point the moderator asked ron paul if a guy who can't afford six months of intensive care should just die in the streets, and a guy in the audience was like "YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHH!!!!" Did you hear Santorum? Jesus he talked like a donkey with no brains at all. The guy was like, mr santorum, you're a catholic, christianity teaches helping the poor, how would you help the poor? And he was like, "Oh I've helped the poor in many ways, I cut their welfare for instance, freeing them from dependency. And I hope to help them further by cutting food stamps and housing aid." There was a whole part of it that was just insane ramblings about vaccinating 12 year old girls against cervical cancer. They were acting like it was the ultimate crime. I don't even understand it. Do they even know what a vaccination is? If I was in charge they would still have these debates but they would be hosted by Peter Lavelle and any time they said something stupid I'd be allowed to jump in and shout at them. Ron Paul just danced around it and tried to defend his nonsensical beliefs. "Yeah well that's freedom you know. You have to plan for these things that's what america's about." If there was ever any question about the stupidity of Alex Jones this settles the issue once and for all. Oh I'm an atheist but I'm actually conservative. Ok good for you, you're an atheist who is a personal fool. These people should be in mental asylums. We need to have protections in place to prevent them from doing damage to society. If given free reign they will kill thousands of their own people, and start world war 3. It makes me fucking sick to say this. Vote Obama. Hold your nose and vote Obama. These people are maniacs. Inhuman, amoral creatures. The lowest filth in the land. The aborted children of Jesus. Deformed things. No longer resembling any of the divinity of their savior. Representing instead the antithesis to his teachings. Carrying a cross as their banner, as they wage war against the poor and sickly things of the world. Cheering on death in all it's forms, like the audience in a roman colosseum. Hastening even their own deaths in the process. All to prove their god true. These people are a danger to society, and the world. The liberals are infinitely superior. In morality, in intellect. There is no comparison. If you're a conservative you're a fool, and a nazi. Case closed, end of story.
(PS the vaccination thing seems to be about, he was friends with the guy who owned the vaccination company well fine whatever. They're still nazis.) =================================================== Jesus, Buddha, Muhammad, although they are in conflict, these are all the same type of person. We are waiting for that person to return. When a truth is brought to completion, it becomes one form. It is perfection, and at the time seems like the only truth. But as it takes over the world, it's own inherent problems become apparent, and other truths begin to take it's place. These people cannot exist in our society anymore. They require softer brains than ours for their mythology to take place. All of today's prophets are quickly shuffled into the mental asylums. They can exist no more. We are wise to them. It doesn't work. However, those that managed to be a prophet and get away with it, are still the controlling influences that govern our society. We are trapped. We can neither create new prophets, or escape our own. Forty great truths into the future, forged of shear genius, in perfect understanding of all of science, religion, philosophy, comedy, art, and videogames. The prophet will return, existing in an age of magic, he will die and his blog will be left on the internet. The assembly of twelve prophets will mourn him and the great argument will ensue. The great war will ensue. The great comedy will ensue. And the war criminals will all be executed. Brahma will rejoice in the deaths of the war criminals, and the world will be blessed. This is the first Kalpa. =================================================== isaiah chapter 13
15Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
16Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
17Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eyes shall not spare children.
19So, aside from being a really rockin' idea for a videogame, this is what people refer to as an "Objective Standard of Morality". That actually explains a lot.
20If you don't believe it's okay to rape women and kill little kids and cut open pregnant women, how can you have any morality at all?! One day you're a constitutional republic, the next boom you're hitler. You need an eternal standard (raping and killing women killing little kids pillaging and cutting open pregnant women) or you don't have any morality at all! It's human, it's always changing. You need a divine standard or you're just an ape, with chemicals in his brain, and I can just kill you. You don't have any morality, you're just stealing from ours, WE INVENTED MORALITY!! You're infringing on copyrights. We've contacted our lawyer.
21Also, I was thinking, seeing as you can hire security to fend off enemy players, why not let them lead an army? That way you can crush your enemies, while also leaving your cities unguarded.
22I hate the idea of respawning infinitely, of a pest that will never go away. Considered some kind of short term ban hammer that would expel people from your world for half an hour, but why not just punish them instead? Lose the gold you're carrying, lose some experience, possibly delevel now and then, and give that to the other player. Therefore conflict is to be avoided when losing, infinite respawning will only result in the problem getting worse and worse for the weaker player, and they will eventually get frustrated and leave. Either going somewhere else or moving to a different world.
22A thought, worth note, lost because of pot smoking.
23If elected, I would remove all copyright laws entirely for people on youtube. As long as you're not making real money, you should be allowed to use anything you want. Once you're a business, then the laws would return. =================================================== Obama talked like an absolute buffoon. His lies were so transparent even he didn't believe them. Abbas spoke very well, because he had the truth on his side. What he said echoes throughout the world. I'm bored of deus ex. But I will try to complete the review before the year. I have to starve myself of pot to save up for Dark Souls. Might be kind of pointless without xbox live, whatever. I am not going to buy Gears of War 3. Beast mode looks fun, but I generally hate multiplayer. It's probably a great game, but if it even slightly resembles the previous games, I want nothing to do with it. Not going to waste precious money on it. Just don't hurt dark souls? Ok? Be nice to dark souls. If I only had some friends.
Also, all Democrats should do everything possible to ensure Ron Paul gets the nomination. Ron Paul is the new Ralph Nader. If Paul gets the nomination, the republicans won't even have a candidate in the next election, except maybe Barack Obama. =================================================== If I were elected, I probably wouldn't kill more than 1000 people a year. In exchange you would have peace, weed, free videogames, and very generous welfare. Your wars have killed millions in the last decade alone. Your model democracy has far more innocent blood on it's hands than my dictatorship ever would. I would kill people that deserve it, you're just killing at random. =================================================== So what did Israel do? You know I wish I could take a day off. This happens at least once a month now. 1100 new settlement units. That is how they communicate, by stealing. That is their response to the UN thing, so far. Can't win with words, win with your boot.
I also didn't want to cover the wall street protest. I thought it was juvenile and stupid. They ordered 200,000 pizzas for 2000 people. But you can't really ignore that scene. Where the officer *hrmph* rapes the young woman. She's just standing there, minding her own business, in the sort of animal pen they had her in. The cop walks up, sprays her in the eye with red pepper spray, and walks off. The girl begins howling in pain, crying on the ground. There is no justification for that, that is just assault. The fact that it is a police officer doing it, makes it a more severe crime, not less. 5 years for assault in prison, minimum. If they fail to do so that is also criminal. And apparently this guy has charges going back to the notorious Republican National Convention. They refused michael moore any kind of amplification devices, so he had to have the entire crowd shout the speech to each other like an ancient jewish game of broken telephone.
Obama.... Instead of "peace is hard". His theme for the night should have been "war is easy". Oh sure I could stand up to Israel and my own voters and do the right thing in the UN, but war is easy. That kind of stuff. I could withdraw all the troops from afghanistan against the wishes of the republicans who are the only people I actually listen to, and save tens of thousands of lives, but war is easy. You know?
Here's a deck I've been working on. It won the first three test runs. Not that good, but acceptable, and fun. I like it, it's fast. One guy in the forums said something like "People are exploiting Knight Exemplar" and I wanted to shout "HOW!? I WANT TO DO THAT!!" =================================================== Pure White Knights
White Spells: Elspeth, Knight-Errant Mirran Crusader x4 Knight Exemplar x4 Oblivion ring x3 Leonin Skyhunter x4 Honor of the Pure x3 Stoneforge Mystic x4 Knight of Meadowgrain x3 Swords to Plowshares x3
Artifacts: Batterskull Sword of Light and Shadow Sword of Fire and Ice Sword of Feast and Famine Sword of Body and Mind Quietus Spike x3 Adaptive Automaton x3
Land: Karakas Plains x19
60 cards =================================================== Also, in case this wasn't perfectly obvious to everyone, the palestinians aren't fucking around. If they get the vote to the general assembly, even with the veto, they can still get non-member status, which gives them access to the ICC, checkmate. =================================================== With regards to the universe being created from nothing, it is often said, "Nothing comes from nothing, Speak!" Yeah thanks a lot Shakespeare that's really impressive. But what is nothing? Are we talking about empty space? Empty space has weight, on the atomic level it looks like a storm of energy clouds. But that is not what we're talking about here. Nothing is a 0 space 0 time void. That is completely different from empty space. What are the properties of a zero space zero time void? We don't know, because we can't even conceive of it due to the very limits of our own mind and existence. How arrogant, to say what such a state can or cannot do.
Here is some random speculation. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Perhaps in the 0 space 0 time void, it can, and there is a storing of energy, of sorts. It condenses into a singularity and then explodes into a universe.
Perhaps the very irrationality of it's own existence forced the laws of order out of nothingness. Infinity cannot stand itself, it becomes one point, energy pours through the portal, and then the gate is sealed off.
How many universes can exist within nothing? How many numbers can 0 contain? Infinity. It is entirely reasonable that in another dimension we cannot access, the same thing is happening. There could be an infinite number of other universes. {Universe is a very crude term. I generally take it to mean everything that proceeds from the singularity that created us. But of course, because it is the universe, after all, if there are other 'universes' they are all part of the same universe.} That's what I think about....
Also, far more importantly, are there Aliens that live inside the 0 space 0 time void, who created the universe, and do they now rule us through our reptilian overlords? I think the answer is yes.
PS: Wow that Shakespeare quote is way off. *shame* =================================================== So I just fought this guy with a bunch of myr. It was a close match, but the knights remain undefeated 9 games since making the deck. I was actually resigned to defeat. I had to mulligan twice and couldn't draw any mana. I figured, the knights are finally going to die. I said "urgh land" and he said "It wouldn't help dude." That pissed me off a great deal, and I resigned to crush him at any cost, even though I only had 11 life, and no creatures. He exiled my batterskull early on but I expected something like that. Eventually I got my land and the deck exploded at 3 as usual. It took about 14 turns, but I whittled him down, creature by creature. My ranks swelled with various white weenie knights, they were all indestructible, some flying, some lifelink. At one point he got to 40 life, but I cut him down. Eventually I exiled his stupid flying angel and I was able to have air superiority and he died soon after that. He cheesed out a couple of big creatures but I kept them in check with some 4/4 indestructible Knights of Meadowgrain. It was very satisfying killing him, he refused to say good game. So the knights are still undefeated, and it's not even a good deck. =================================================== So, Chavez.... I liked him. I tried to defend him. Even when he shut down his opposition's media, when he wanted to be president for life. I tried to support him. Tried to overlook his faults, because he's Chavez. He's awesome. But this is the last fucking straw. The bastard just expressed solidarity with the Syrian government. SYRIA!! They took a little 12 year old boy, and tortured him to death, and mutilated him. You're expressing solidarity with that?!!? Not gonna happen. Done with Chavez. =================================================== http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBusheMsaZ8&feature=youtube_gdata (Killing Prostitutes in Shanghai) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JEjgK1Gb0o (Let's Play MTGO - Hob Blade)

I think videogames make you a better mass murderer, Breivik was a gamer, so were the columbine kids.
The gulags are the fault of the communists. Concentration camps are the fault of the extreme right. Somalia is all on Alex Jones, Adam vs the Man, and all the rest of those libertarian idiots, with their fucking pseudoscience and their bloody political talk shows and right wing talking points.
Millions of people dying of starvation, photos like the people from Auschwitz, no human should have to suffer like that, let alone a baby, nice work alex.
When Muhammad said to cut off a thief's hands, when read in context, it's not the first time in that chapter that he advocates for such an action.
How about this? If you like cutting off people's hands and feet and you like to fuck 9 year old girls, you should be swiftly killed.
I don't think Muhammad even read the new testament, because he doesn't seem to even understand Jesus' ideas, and attempts to roll back most of the reforms he tried to enact. He seems to just be making it up as he goes along based on stuff his friends told him.
The answer to the Bush/Obama problem, is the french revolution, the guillotine.
A woman scorned ain't got nothin' on me. ====================================================== Also I think 21 years is a bit light for 76 murders, I think he should be in jail for 1575 years. Bush should be in jail for so many years it would amount to a kind of divine punishment or something. 31500000 years in prison. Thirty one million five hundred thousand years. ====================================================== Oh wait, I thought I was adolf hitler, I forgot this was a Catherine review.
I've only played the start so far, but I unlocked one of the challenge stages, which was excellent. I can't praise this game enough. One guy was like:
"Would you pay 60 dollars for a game as antiquated as Tetris or Q-bert ?"
Which just made me cringe. It reminded me of my referring to batman arkham asylum as a "simplistic button masher" or something to that effect. But the level of the atrocity doesn't even compare. Batman was a mostly garbage game. If you really wanted to be batman it gave you a decent game, and the combat was inspired, but overall the game was not a masterpiece but rather just a diversion while waiting for other games. Catherine, is a work of beautiful art. The puzzle aspect is well grounded, with lots of clever variation as the game progresses. I hate puzzles. Hate them. But I will play Catherine because of the story. Some people don't like the anime. I'm a huge anime fan, so that "problem" is a major selling point for me. The story is mature and dark and intelligent, dealing with complex relationships well, which is something you never see in games. There's branching plotlines, based on your choices, my Raison d'être in videogames. The text messages, of all things, are worthy of note, and praise. You have 2 or 3 options to write, erasing and rewriting until you find a good choice, that then leads to other branching options, affecting morality, the plot, and people's reactions to you. It is a classic Atlus game to it's core, including Babel, because at least 90% of the time Atlus employees can't resist making a game with some kind of weird tower variant as a major aspect of the game. What I didn't even know when I bought it was that these babel levels are randomly generated. They didn't forget to include something like that. Resounding praise. Rather than my usual policy I will give this game a 9.7 until it proves it is inferior, or perhaps even superior. Normally in almost any game I play on easy mode, because I hate playing a game 30% just to find out it's too difficult to complete, Ghostbusters.... But here, in one of the more punishing games of the year, I am playing on normal, to unlock the babel areas. A decision I might regret later on I am told. I am looking forward to the challenge, just like with demon's souls, I will persist until I complete the game, and with branching plotlines and multiple endings there is lots of replay value. It's superb. The people who don't like this can go to fucking hell. It's a gem. You must get this. I repeat, I hate puzzles, and I am ranking this with my top 3 titles, it is a puzzle game. I don't care about the puzzles, honestly, I'm more interested in a rich, intelligent, and detailed story. With branching plotlines. It even appears to have a decent minigame parroting the structure of the main gameplay. I can't wait. I am a very unhappy and angry person, but now, for a while, I am happy. I've never seen a game like this, so many ideas, so innovative. It's brave, and risky, not everyone will like it. They're experimenting. ===================================================== So I got a gold prize on the third nightmare, which was bloody difficult, but rewarding, and that was enough to unlock the second stage of babel. It was crazy difficult, but I did it. A lot of people talked about the game's insane difficulty but so far it's not so bad, even on normal. Although I am quite sure it will get progressively worse to the point of impossibility. Anyway, so far, this game has the best story I've ever seen, in games yes, but also otherwise. This is more fun than any book I've read, better than any movie. It is the best story ever, for now. I'm quite pleased with the purchase, so far it's game of the year as far as I'm concerned, but there are a lot of titans sharpening their teeth, we'll see.
(lol ass monster) ====================================================== So can you just do me a favor and run out and buy this game? I want this to sell really well. I want them to get it in their head that they should keep making games for this generation and that it's worth the time and effort. I want to see others. I want another persona, or better yet any new shin megami tensei and hey why not nocturne 2? ====================================================== I have to say, the fourth level was very difficult. However someone put it well when they said that the game is like demon's souls in that, the difficulty is based around learning the world. It's not unfair difficulty, it just takes practice. AAA Hollywood blockbuster story, and a puzzle that is so cool I am actually often just playing the babel stages with no story at all and having fun. Except that the second stage is so impossibly difficult I can only see it having a function in pvp as a way to promptly kill the other player. ====================================================== The young turks, I tried man, I tried. I went back. I killed them all, but I went back. But I still can't fucking take it. It's the same shit I get from watching colbert and jon stewart, from noobtoob and the atheist experience. It's the sense that people are attacking me by proxy. So I can either sit there, day after day, let them take a little more of my dignity, day after day, after day, by proxy. Or I can stop watching. I would be overjoyed if one of these fucking people would just directly criticize me, but they don't want to acknowledge that I exist, that would be giving me too much, because that's what an asshole does when they truly dislike someone. They aren't worth criticizing, they don't deserve to even exist. They are happier first that the person be ignored by everyone, forever. Problem solved. I don't want that. First they ignore you, then they make fun of you, then they start taking you seriously. I am the voice of my generation, whether they like it or not. I've written the best political book since fear and loathing on the campaign trail 72, but in the process of working towards it I have surpassed the original book. I am now in the league of Jesus and Buddha, and have already surpassed them both. Worthless curs they are. It doesn't matter that only me and 40,000 other people have right answer, in the future I am god and you are nothing. It would hurt less if you stopped fighting. You should just do it my way, give me five hundred years, you'll get your world government. If not from me then from them. You'd be better off with me. Cenk, doesn't have a single controversial view, at all. He's squeaky clean. He isn't a liberal, he's a fucking fiscal conservative. He has this big reputation to maintain, too much to lose. I can say anything I want. He appears to be getting his talking points directly out of my book. Come back when you make fun of me by name. I wouldn't mind if these people weren't putting 1000 idiots a week on TV. It's the constant support for the worthless weakness and mediocrity, day after day, that gets to me. I'd kill for 5 minutes on TV. These people get it because they wrote a book called:
The American Way of War by Eugene Jarecki
or
Jesus Was a Liberal by fucking.... Scotty McLennan
It is actually injurious to me just to talk about this. I am not going to watch your show, because I don't want to feel like shit. Congratulations, you have inspired the worst thing I've written in months, I won't let you ruin anything else. Brendan Samuel Rose. You know damn fucking well who I am, when you're ready to admit it, we'll talk. I don't consider a person who doesn't know who I am to have value of any kind. The law is that if you've read my book, murder is legal against the people who haven't. That rule goes triple for the ones that pretend not to know, they are without excuse. I am god. This is a religious text. This is legal. These are not the droids you're looking for. Also I'm glad you lost your job, you were neglecting your internet audience anyway.
PS: I'm happy noobtoob is gone. More 14 year old boys for me. ====================================================== So rather than follow my friend's advice, I decided to copy him instead. I sold my Phyrexian Obliterators which had dropped in price, and bought Grindstone and Painter's Servant. It's a little more obscure of a win, but it's really stylish. Grindstone is rated slightly higher than the obliterators. It is a two card win condition, that works very early, rather than an unblockable creature and one hell of a wall. They're both good, but I am happier with the Grindstone. My first test it turned into a war of attrition. I had no luck at all, couldn't draw anything I needed. He had this creatureless shrine deck, which was 1 turn away from killing me, he had about 28 life, but I drew a mind twist, made him discard seven cards, 2 liliana's caress, 7x4, I win. The next game I drew exactly what I needed. I was terrified his monoblueness would counter my grindstone or imperial seal or my painter's servant, but he didn't, and he conceded before I was able to perform the act. Turn 3 or 4. There is room for improvement, once my friend is around again. ====================================================== You want to play that game? Fine, you know what news story I heard about? How about when the cops raided that guy's house on a marijuana bust, then they shot his dog, right in front of his kids, for some pot. The guy wasn't doing anything, he just wanted to smoke his weed in peace and enjoy his life. They destroyed his life, killed his dog, for no reason, just because they could. What about the notion of how palestinian acts of self defense, are not violence. Much as a woman is not committing violence when she attempts to fend him off a rapist with bites and scratches. How about Obama, and how we put all our hope and trust in him, worked so hard to help him win, and then he proceeded to stab us all in the back 1000 times, betray and destroy and pillage everything he could find and sell out everything else, giving the republicans everything they ever wanted including the next election. Destroying all hope of making anything better ever again. Fuck you Ana Kasparian, you bleeding harlot. Note how I call you a harlot by name, you fucking coward. Once again you are fouling up an otherwise competent piece of writing. I'm done with this, never going back. Won't miss it, don't need it. ====================================================== I'm still working on this one.... ====================================================== Grindstone
Black Spells: Mind Twist x4 Sorin Markov Liliana Vess Damnation x4 Pox x4 Liliana's Caress x4 Demonic Tutor Vampiric Tutor Imperial Seal
Artifacts: Ensnaring Bridge x4 Crucible of Worlds x4 Painter's Servant x4 The Rack x3 Grindstone x4

====================================================== Limbo.... Well it's a pretty good game. I can't really bring myself to play it much but I've seen a few let's plays. RoseErifnosi is LPing Limbo. It's fun, I have no real objection to it. Gamespot gave catherine an 8.5 and limbo a 9. I think basically just switch those around and you're on the right track, or just promote catherine. Also I find it repellant that a dlc pack for fallout new vegas got the same score as catherine. The game is getting really difficult. I can play the next boss now, and when I have completed it I will post another story video. It's cool. Whatever.... The next area of babel is unreachable though. Two gold on these last two levels is nearly impossible, but I kind of like that there are such decent rewards for something that difficult. The novelty has worn off, but I won't demote it, it deserves what it got, even if I give up playing right here. Looking forward to deus ex 3. I'm going to be really angry if they fouled that up. Catherine is really good, I feel like I'm lying when I say that, but it is great for many reasons. Awesome story, addictive gameplay, rewards to equal it's difficulty. This always kind of happens with their games. Unless you count demon's souls I haven't actually completed a single one, and shin megami tensei is still my favorite series of games and Atlus is my favorite publisher. They have too much substance. They put so much work into their games it is basically impossible to complete any of them. It's like the rainy day beef bowl challenge.
Now that rose is LPing it I guess I can't just dismiss LIMBO. I will play through it, it's only supposed to be about 6 hours. I'll give the game a try. ====================================================== So I got past the corpse bride. It was a horrible nightmare but I managed to get past it with a guide. I guess that's how I'll have to play all of them from this point on. The difficulty was not overstated.
Incidentally, if anything I've said has offended you recently, toughen up. It's only going to get worse from this point on. I am happy enough to scare off 100 people just as long as I still have the people that weren't so milk livered. 10 people is enough. 0 people is enough. I'm still going to say whatever I feel like.
These last few videos have been a bit dull though, I'll give you that. Now that my computer is functioning again I'm sure I can find something new to lp. ====================================================== Just thought I should mention, the US government lost it's AAA credit rating. I don't really know what that means but I am told that is rather a bad thing. It's the weekend so you won't hear this from democracynow or the alyona show or anything, so I guess you can hear it from me. ====================================================== So what did Israel do? 1600 new settlement units. They just, can't go a couple of months without doing that. Evil fucking thieves. It enrages me. These people are unbelievable. They're all drafted in the army so the entire population is guilty, and again, what do they deserve? They deserve bombs in their streets. Good, good answer sir. When you're ready to behave like a normal human being I'll retract that. They're even protesting, nothing about palestine, they're protesting cost of living or something. Yeah they're worse than Syria. Much worse. Maybe not on numbers, but on shear human filthiness there's no comparison. At least, to their credit, they haven't murdered large numbers of people in the last few months. You can't negotiate with them. They don't want to negotiate, they just want to steal more and more land, and make the negotiations continue indefinitely without getting anywhere. You cannot negotiate a peace with such a people. Their best hope right now is recognition in the UN. Obama says they can't have peace imposed on them, they must negotiate, but the negotiations are a farce. What he proposes is a plan for suicide. I'm sick of it. Thieving fucking dogs. They just can't stop stealing. They're kleptomaniacs. ====================================================== Dwarf Fortress
This game is really interesting. I set a few random variables in play, set the game to calculate a history of 1050 years, and then just sat and smoked as the civilizations rose and fell. A hundred thousand born, three thousand still alive. Hundreds of thousands of historical events. Rather than play the game, I tried legends mode and started reading about Istrath the dragon. Istrath was a real bastard.
"In the early summer of 10, Istrath became an enemy of the Crystalline Coasts. Istrath became an enemy of the honorable squid. Istrath attacked the moon horror mate nemo panthergroove. Istrath fought with him, while defeated, the latter escaped unscathed. Istrath became an enemy of the floor of vales. Istrath became an enemy of the gem of birds. In the early summer of 28, Istrath devoured a cat of the floor of vales in diamondrevered. Istrath became an enemy of the rough hall. Istrath became an enemy of the vestibule of spirit. Istrath attacked the dwarf Zulban mistchamber. Istrath struck down the dwarf Zulban Mistchamber. Istrath devoured the dwarf zulban mistchamber in Claspperplexed. Istrath attacked the dwarf Zan workdoor. Istrath burned the dwarf zan workdoor in dragon fire in claspperplexed. Istrath became an enemy of the bride of fissures. Istrath became an enemy of the crow of authoring. Istrath devoured a water buffalo bull of the bride of fissures in windcusps. Istrath attacked the elf Ametha Galenumbers. Istrath fought with her, but the latter escaped unscathed. A pine scepter was stolen from windcusps by Istrath. Istrath became an enemy of the sins of dreaming. Istrath became an enemy of the mythical dungeons. A tetrahedrite bracelet was stolen from malignmorass by istrath. Istrath became an enemy of the silvery creature. Istrath became an enemy of the trampled typhoon. Istrath attacked the elf vinena snarlbelted. Istrath burned the elf vinena snarlbelted in dragon fire in gleamglacier. Istrath devoured a horse of the silvery creature in gleamglacier. A willow scepter was stolen from gleamglacier by istrath. In 76, the human muthe releaseglitter confronted istrath. Istrath burned the human muthe releaseglitter in dragon fire in the forest of dawn. Istrath became an enemy of the autumnal basin. Istrath became an enemy of the wind of merging. A cedar scepter was stolen from leopardtempests by istrath. Istrath began wandering the steppe of crafts. In the late spring of 84, a large plume agate was stolen from claspperplexed by istrath. Istrath became an enemy of the hot maw. Istrath became an enemy of the beans of portent.
etc, etc...

And a list of at least 3000 enemies. He's still alive. Well I guess I'll try out the game now. ====================================================== Do you know how overpriced those pay 2 life or this land enters tapped dual lands are? A godless shrine actually costs 50 cents more right now than a scrubland. ====================================================== If I lived in Star Trek, I would invent a machine that scans to see if anyone has disappeared from the ship and automatically notifies the captain. I'd be rich, except they don't use money. ====================================================== So there were some interesting results in the straw poll. Ron Paul, got second. He's actually a serious candidate this time. I prayed to god, after my marijuana legalization prayer, that this election would be Ron Paul vs. Barack Obama's Primary Challenger. But that will not happen. Bachmann got first place. That's an interesting one. Christian Sharia Law, American Taliban, Porn ban, War in Iran. God knows what she'd to do to the taxes, or health care. I almost kind of want to watch it happen. Like watching a group of slaves being eaten by 4 lions in a Colosseum. Bachmann is out and out fascism, as far as I can tell. She's way worse than Barack Obama. Way worse. So I'm supporting her, as an agent of chaos. And because I want to see the first woman president destroy the first black president, hopefully 1 term herself.
She's worse than Sarah Palin. She's terrible. Will democrats vote for her? Hell no. But after the totality of his betrayal, can they possibly be energized around voting Obama? No. He won't have his support anymore, which is necessary to win an election. The republicans are very strong right now. Obama is very weak right now. He thinks doing the right thing is worth losing an election. Obama is a fool. He doesn't think that the election is important. And his concept of doing the right thing is giving amnesty to the torturers, continuing the wars, passing mediocre health care, giving the republicans the bush tax cuts, and the estate tax, just for the hell of it, trillions in cuts, with no revenue increases of any kind.... And looting medicare and social security, as the responsible thing to do, from both parties. Have a nice country. I hate bipartisanship. Thanks to Obama's capitulation, our choices are now a democrat that is worse than any republican in history, or fascism. ====================================================== Also why is it "islamophobiac" to call Muhammad a pedophile? It's a fact. He married a 9 year old at 53. That's the definition of pedophilia. But there's something wrong with me for pointing that out, not him for doing the act. He's supposed to be an example for all humanity. He's a pedophile. He's doing it right now. It's insane. But that's my problem. I'm a bigot. Because he slept with a 9 year old girl and I pointed it out. You're an idiot. Ask them about it, watch the acrobatics. ====================================================== "To all bitter or jealous or unemployed or frustrated or mean or nasty or under-loved or under-paid or unintelligent or bigoted or self-haters or stalkers or live-at-home-with-mommy-and-daddy "adults" (or children). Think before you comment. THINK HOW SMALL AND SILLY YOU APPEAR WITH YOUR ANGRY AND BITTER COMMENTS." ... "I'VE BLOCKED COUNTLESS IRRATIONAL YOUTUBE USERS WHO HAVE NO SENSE OF DECENCY. "
- The guy who blocked me
It's rather amusing the way people drive themselves to the point of insanity on youtube. First they bring a lot of criticism down on themselves, then rather than just ignore it, they read every comment, and obsessively ban everyone who disagrees with them. And when you're as stupid as this guy, that's a full time job. He must be going out of his mind. In fact I know he is, just read above.
I watched his whole stupid speech, but I don't get a voice. That's his answer to an argument, the block button. Muslims are the same way. So are 911 truthers. None of them can tolerate dissent. In the truther's idiocracy, the christian theocracy, or the muslim caliphate, the block button is a death sentence. Well maybe not the truthers, perhaps they just really like to censor. I'm just glad we live in a secular society where the unpleasant instincts of the ideologues are kept in check. I don't like dissent either, but at least I care enough about free speech that I allow them to have their say, even if I don't read it. ====================================================== Also, why is force of will so expensive? It's just a crummy counterspell. It's good. Better than a regular counterspell I guess. Discard 1 and lose 1 life, it's about equal to 2 blue mana. I can see it being good in certain situations, like having no mana, but the price is absurd. It should be worth 15 dollars. For the price of one force of will, you could get 4 mana drain and like, 3 jace the mind sculptor. When I see someone with that card I want to strangle them.
For 135 dollars, the card should read, "Pay 2 blue mana, you win the game."
Also here's a card I'd love to see.
"(undecided cost) Destroy all basic lands."
That would be great. It would also be the end of the game. It would break it. But they punish non-basic lands so harshly, I'd like to see the tables turned. ====================================================== Some people make the argument that, if God exists, then we are created in the image of god and have value. But if atheism is true, then you're not worth anything, you're just an animal that spawned from a puddle of goo. But I say a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. How does a god make your life more valuable? How does the lack of one make mine any less? You're still the same either way.
Some people make the argument that, atheists have no objective foundation for morality. They can't say anything is right or wrong. This is true. There is no morality. Most atheists flee from this. You can do whatever you want. So if I want to have morality then there's nothing you can do to stop me. If you murder someone, that's not wrong, or right. There's nothing stopping you from killing that person. And there's nothing stopping the police from hauling your ass in front of a judge and then letting you rot in prison for the rest of your life. ====================================================== So what's going on in Israel? Well they brought a bit of violence down upon themselves. First of all Israel blew up a couple of people in Gaza. Then the Palestinians killed about 8 Israelis, a soldier among them. That evened the score for the settlement expansion. But then Israel chose to retaliate, blew up a couple of people in gaza, including a 9 year old child. So now they're right back to deserving bombs in their streets. However, this is extremely unproductive. Now is not the time for this shit. You have to be focused on September, and your vote for legitimacy at the UN. You can't let them paint you as terrorists at a time like this. They're deliberately trying to provoke you to make you look bad at the UN. Listen to jesus for once, and take a few hits this time, for now. We'll see what the UN does. If you do nothing, your credibility increases and theirs decreases. If you act, you make the credibility even again. Let them beat you up for two months. Let's them rob and kill you. Don't do anything in response. Then you will walk into the UN a blameless victim, and them a brutal oppressor. Or you can just be like "I wanna kill some motherfuckas." In which case you will both walk into the UN with bloodstained hands. And the best you can hope for is pity and mercy. You do not want equality. You want moral superiority. You're just making yourself look foolish. The Israelis are fascist beasts that dwarf south africa. Their arguments, are crimes. Filthy unhuman animals, horrible frankensteins. The scum of the earth. A plague on this planet. A curse on humanity. The irredeemable mule of eternity. A human pox. The worst country in the world. It does not take much to look better than them at this crucial time. Stop doing that. That pisses me off. If you must do it at least wait until fucking october. I have no great love for the israelis. I'm ashamed of this bullshit. I'm stunned at your stupidity. I thought you at least had half a brain. ====================================================== I hate that paragraph. So I've gotten to the 7th floor boss, and I'll be making another video soon. This piece has been a crazy adventure. Tomorrow is Deus Ex Human Revolution, and I'm looking forward to starting something new. Many of the reviewers are calling it a game of the year contender. Good. I'm glad they didn't ruin gaming's most treasured title. It will be fun. And I will be nice and high. Despite having to go to a school appointment that day I think I will stay awake tonight and play it as soon as it unlocks at about 5 am. Catherine is a fine game. You'd do yourself a favor to try it. I know I didn't say anything about Catherine in this review but it is quite excellent, and underrated. Breaks new ground in many areas. It is a very original title, I will return here when the game is complete. ====================================================== Nietzsche believed that Christianity was doomed to destroy itself. The will to truth, forces the believer to reject the existence of his own god, and subsequently he comes to the belief that nothing is true. In fact the opposite is true. As science disproves more and more of what the Christian believes, his belief in God causes him to reject the existence of truth, he declares a war to the death against science, and subsequently he makes a youtube video full of vulgarity and cursing. ====================================================== Jack Layton, NDP (July 18, 1950 – August 22, 2011) ====================================================== So just when I thought Catherine was over, and was in the process of filming my final video in the series, 2 hours of recording and 5 other levels later and there's still more. They tricked me. They made me think the cathedral was the last level, when in fact I was nowhere near it. I am now certain of my decision to rate this a 9.7. Even if the notion of finishing the game before deus ex human revolution was released is becoming less and less likely. This game frelling rules. It's smeggin' awesome. ====================================================== Catherine has the coolest story I have ever seen. The story hits psychological triggers I didn't even know I wanted. It's like it was perfectly crafted for me and no one else. In literature, in movies, or other games. This is my favorite story ever. Still haven't completed the game. 1 boss away. It's a killer, do not die! ====================================================== Well I finished the game... I.... that was.... so weird.... I'm not even going to talk about it, you can see for yourself in the video. I have like 3 hours of back footage to import. Ciao. ====================================================== http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFXFlmDd7O4&feature=youtube_gdata (Catherine and MTGO - Part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1fzBar0WmE&feature=youtube_gdata (Catherine - Part 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBOn9vFDs8s&feature=youtube_gdata (Catherine - Part 3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfEDrtffhw0&feature=youtube_gdata (A Crappy History of Shin Megami Tensei) catherine - part 4 (Catherine - Part 4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0z41ebH0O4&feature=youtube_gdata (Catherine - Part 5 - End Game Spoilers)
