- Comment on Who's your favorite female protagonist in a video game? (Add pic of character in response) 1 week ago:
Aya Brea, from Parasite Eve
The perfect mix of unsuspecting hero, chosen one, and bad ass. The sequel also gives her an Ellen Riply in Aliens vibe as well. Shame about 3rd Birthday and the fact we will never get another one. For those who don’t know, the owner of the original IP didn’t want to renew the license for the games, which means the games can no longer use anything from the novel which includes all references to mitochondria and Eve. That’s why 3rd Birthday was seemingly a totally different game; they tried to make a sequel that couldn’t reference any of the main plot points of the previous games or novel.

That really does suck when work obligations can be in conflict with genuine friendships. A big part of why I prefer to keep things separate.
- Comment on It is only half greentext, though amusing 2 weeks ago:
You can be friendly without being actual friends. I prefer not to make actual friends at work, the exception being once I’m no longer working with I’m more likely to spend time with them socially. I never understand why people get so upset when you don’t want to be friends; they interpret that as “you must hate me if you don’t want to be my friend”. No, I just have a finite amount of time and energy for friends.
My performance is not based on friendship stats like some kind of dating sim.

This comment section is a nice mix of “I’m a waiter, please don’t do this, you’re making my job harder” and “I always do this to make the waiters’ lives easier”
- Comment on Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff again 3 weeks ago:
There is a possible version of windows that is good and that people want. It’s a just a shame that Microsoft isn’t interested it making it.
As someone who grew up on windows, I’m willing to stay with it for as long as I can make it like that version. I don’t want Mac, and Linux doesn’t support enough (still, but maybe one day)

- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 2 months ago:
That’s right, circle was accept because drawing a circle in Japanese is their equivalent to a tick, x is cancel like a cross, I think the square was supposed to look like a piece of paper, I can’t remember what the triangle symbolised.

- Comment on Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike 2 months ago:
I think it’s proven fact that things often sell off of the art and IP, sometimes for those alone. If that wasn’t the case they wouldn’t fight so hard to protect it.

Actually that was from Das Jesus Video (aka The Hunt for the Hidden Relic)
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 3 months ago:
I don’t think you’ve thought through your question. The machine was open in both time periods. The machine was turned off after the information was given. There’s nothing more to happen.
I get what you’re trying to say, but it doesn’t really apply to the scenario you are describing.
I saw a better version of what you are attempting to present: a scientist has a button that transports an object back in time by 5 seconds. An apple is tested successfully, it appears 5 seconds before he pushes the button and when he pushes the button the original disappears. They try it with a live mouse but something goes wrong; when it appears it’s horribly disfigured and this scares the scientist who pulls away from pushing the button. The mouse has already appeared but he will not press the button. Now what happens?
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 3 months ago:
This is the most level headed approach to IP I’ve seen. If you’re not willing to use the property you forfeit it. It’s a common contact for licensing rights for movies that forces a studio to make a movie or lose rights. That way people can’t squat on a licence to prevent others using it.
- Comment on Square Enix acknowledges Expedition 33 success as inspiration for next Final Fantasy as turn-based is still beloved by gamers 3 months ago:
Tactics is getting more of a remaster than a remake. It’s also missing a bunch of content that was added in the PSP version. Honestly I don’t think it will sell terribly well.

I had to do it twice. The first season sucks. Could have been done in 2 episodes. The rest of the show is a lot better and I’m glad I powered through the first season.

- Comment on Morpheus Actor Laurence Fishburne Reveals He Was Turned Down for The Matrix Resurrections — So He Might Not Be Back for Matrix 5 Either - IGN 5 months ago:
Fishburne was very diplomatic when asked for his opinion on the finished Matrix 4: “it was better than I expected, but not as good as I had hoped”.
Hugo weaving, the actor for Smith, didn’t appear in the film due to alleged scheduling conflicts, but I suspect he took a look at the script and noped out of it.
It’s a shame, it could’ve been good.
