There are female characters onscreen who aren't about to be raped, this can't be a David Cage game.

More seriously: The dialogue is nothing like a David Cage script (it's a little questionable in places but not in the same way), and even if it was, the dialogue isn't even the problem with David Cage's writing. David Cage can write an individual scene decently enough, so long as nobody's trying to get laid in it. Cage's problem is that he's incapable of stringing those scenes together into a story that isn't pants-on-head retarded.

I've seen the weirdest hateboners over this game. On another forum I came across a guy recommending no one buy it and expressing confusion why so many reviewers liked "this pretentious hipster shit". I had to point out that it was probably because these outfits didn't consider "FUCKING HIPSTERS" to be the be-all and end-all of aesthetic criticism. I mean, if Life Is Strange's cultural touchstones fill you with incandescent rage then no duh you're going to hate it. It's not for you. And, y'know, that's fine! God knows there's a million things I'd rather do than sit through a screening of the Three Colours Trilogy with my popcorn and a cup of Fanta, but I'm hardly going to waste time shooing people away from the cinema just because it's not my thing.

It's a multiplayer CK2 thread, where all players are playing electors of the HRE (the empire of Italia has been cut and the dejure territory added to the HRE so we can have more voters). I'm playing Saxony, and apparently 5 people are going to each play a merchant house in Genoa, it's gonna be a hell of a party. Think I'll try and go Germanic so I can rampage around the North lining my pockets and bribing my fellow electors (who, of course, are sacrosanct and safe from my aggression). And even if I don't convert, the Danes, Norwegians, and Swedes are easy prey for an armed and aggressive Saxony.

Paradox threads are among the finest LP threads.

I feel a lot of their jokes and general humor is just them phoning it in. With Jon the quips and the joyous outbursts felt a tiny bit more genuine if that makes any sense? But even with Jon they still had those episodes of "let's yell because funny". I mean Dan seems like a super chill guy and Arin is... whatever, but a lot of times it seems they're just laughing at their voices rather than anything they actually said if that makes any sense?

Either way, I will always stand that image related is the best thing Game Grumps has done and ever will do.

I actually like Dan a LOT more than Jon, Jon and Arin were all about escalation into just horrendous screaming sometimes, Grumps is more fun for me personally now and while both end up screaming sometimes Dan adds a lot of much needed focus for the show like how you can hear him say things like, c'mon Arin let's at least accomplish SOMETHING this episode."

Plus being from a much older generation of gamer than even Arin his "caveman in the modern day" reactions are great, listening to him see Bloodborne without even knowing what it is is fantastic.

This. I personally find Danny great not just as a Lets player in his environment, but he's really good at reeling in Arin's own bad habits when playing. He's really funny and nice so that's just pleasant to listen to. And frankly I was personally starting to dislike Jon at the end there - where Danny now makes the show more LP-y (inciting conversation where there otherwise would be just railing on a game's mechanics), Jon used to be a louder less focused Arin.

But that's just my opinion!

>there are times he's amazing though,...
As an artist/animator, I found Toon Grumps to be absolutely amazing and wonderful, to the point where I've listened to it a couple of times more since it came out. Arin himself did a huge 180° and when you get him talking about business and animation, not only is he serious as hell, he's actually really insightful - its great to hear him talk art on the main grumps show too!

I think I prefer when Game Grumps was just two guys playing video games and editing it, not 5 guys plus a girl making a business out of it. You may think that makes me a hipster, but the casual environment that makes the Let's Play concept so great is lost when you start making legal contracts and PR agents. It's gotten to the point where it's obvious they care nothing about their fans and are only doing this for money, and whether it's still entertaining or not, it's uncomfortable for me to watch knowing that.

He's entitled to his opinion, but I will say that Jon, of all the "lets players" out there has easily the best production values for his show and as a result due to the scripted nature of things it feels better and more polished.

I'd actually not classify him as a lets player at all, but more of a reviewer and even on that note he stands head and shoulders above most.

Sure his writing and delivery can fall a little flat, and he may resort to some tired tropes, but I still find him quite a bit more entertaining than most.

Way too generous on that one buddy. This video is far from a good JonTron's league.

There's 5 minutes of skit featuring rapid fire Jon-isms (which makes them lose their charm) and predictable Star Wars gags (equivalents of foul mouth Mario for instance) in a 10 minute video. Roughly 50 seconds per game afterwards allowing for about 1 screen of the game in action (sometimes 2!) and less than 5 comments for the "review" before slapping in the next one and repeating. Your gif is tied for best thing in the video (with fake Jacques being destroyed) and it's a 3 second joke about mismatched facial expression and voice intonation.

Not a strong start in the least. Disney's Polaris Maker Studios is gonna need to kick it up for the proceeding entries if they want this marketing ploy to be successful.

Set, editing, costumes, props, etc were all great though. Obvious there was some ad department money from the Mouse trickling down into the project.

The Hunter's Axe is pretty much their main weapon, and Strength only adds about 2% of the base damage per point below the first softcap (25; they're at 20) and 1% after that. Its Skill scaling is about half that. So long as they don't keep doing it way past the first Vitality softcap (which they're one point below), it's not really a huge difference.

10% of base damage. It's at 210 now, and five Strength points would take up to about 226 (yes, I know the actual damage difference can be bigger depending on the move). That will make a difference about as often as the ~20% HP increase the last five levels of Vitality gave them.

Point is, the stats are balanced enough that this kind of min-maxing is far from critical. It's an action RPG, how they're actually fighting is way more important.

As for Superman, I feel like that character of the archetype super you're supposed to live up to is done a lot better by Cap, who while obviously no less unstoppable than pretty much any superhero at least has the ILLUSION of not being invincible. And for big flying dudes that hit people there's Goku. The only time I've EVER liked Superman is in the Bruce Tim stuff, and aside of Static, Superman's series is still the weakest part of that.

It's time for the "comments whining about furries or whining about the whining about furries" rigmarole.

Meanwhile, the game is awesome and has great music and charm. I do think Liam is going through it slightly too quickly and they're not noticing the aforementioned music. Still, good choice for a playthrough.

Damn good article.

>The best we can do is address them honestly, actually engage with the tough stuff, and resist the urge to boil things down into simple binaries. Sometimes that means repeating ourselves, again and again: “No, I don’t think CD Projekt Red is racist; Yes, I still wish there were some people of color in the game. Yes, I still like The Witcher 3 a lot. No, those three statements do not contradict each other.”

Annoying as hell when you have to repeat stuff like that over and over, just to offer any ounce of serious critique, due to how thin-skinned gamers are.

Good thing most of the dinosaurs confirmed to have feathers weren't actually that big. And the ones who were big like the tyrannosaurs probably didn't have that many, similar to how rhinos and elephants aren't as hairy as dogs or horses.

At this point it looks like the only dinosaurs that weren't pretty heavily feathered after a certain point were, ironically enough, the bird-hipped dinosaurs.
