God. I’m watching the VODs of Brutalmoose’s series of playing all the humongous entertainment games and it makes me so irrationally angry. It’s like he has no listening skills or reading comprehension. Constantly missing when the game literally tells him what to do and then complaining about being lost. I’d hate to watch him play an adventure game not made for five year olds.

Maybe I’d be on board with his complaints about the characters in Spy Fox talking too much if he wasn’t constantly ignoring what they say, telling them to shut up, and then not knowing where to go. It’s so aggravating.

If they had made more of them, people would have bought more of them and the odds of them being better would go up.
That's not how that works. It's like Gwen mentioned that Jrpgs sell like **** on the Xbox series, and they've had 2 decades to fix that. Are there jrpg fans that play Xbox? Of course, but they're not the Xbox's core demographic.

It doesn’t quite work that way.

Making a video game isn’t a simple process, it takes a lot of time, effort, talent, and most importantly money. As a company, you have to decide what games would be most worth investing in. If mascot platformers were flopping left and right on the system, why spend all their resources making even more, instead of investing in genres that have proven more lucrative? It could lead to financial disaster.

You’re just giving me more reasons why we should stop having capitalism.

I'm getting back into analog horror. Stopped for awhile.
Got any recommendations for some? Full series or one-offs? I've been watching a lot of one-off ones lately.

I try to follow analog horror series that start off strong, but even among the analog horror shorts that have no further story beyond video, there's a decent amount of hits and hidden gems.

"Boneless Wings are just tenders/nuggets"

Yeah? so? Nuggets are good, there will be no nugget slander in my vicinity.
I did not slander nuggets, I would never slander nuggets, I just think "boneless wings" is dumb because why are you even eating wings if they're not bone in.

The most American thing would have included Christian proverbs, a reference to not forgetting 9/11, and some defensiveness about the history of colonialism.

And honestly at this point, a little bit of nazi-ism too

Generator Rex is one of those shows where, unless you were the right age at the right place at the right time, you’ve never heard of it.
I only heard about it because once upon a time I heard a song from a band called Orange, looked them up, and apparently they did the theme song for it.

Nuggets are usually made out of processed/shaped chicken meat. They like blend it up and then shape it.

Chicken tenders and boneless wings are usually just a piece of actual chicken meat cooked.
Chicken tenders are just a different way to make nuggets. You've been brainwashed by American propaganda to believe otherwise.

Anyway I'm going to sleep, wake me up when we talk about a food I have actual opinions about like burgers

I’m describing the actual difference between nuggets and tenders as sold in America. Yes, you can make nuggets the same way you make tenders but almost no restaurant in this country does.

I love burgers. There’s this restaurant in my town that lets you really customize your burgers and I always get the following.
  • American Cheese (x2)
  • Blue Cheese Crumbles
  • Bacon
  • Ketchup
  • Mustard
  • Pickles
  • Onions
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Grilled mushrooms
  • And French fries (yes, on the burger)
I call it “the gut buster”
