You know what's really nice to have in a void world when you only have around five or so lives left? Fucking jetpack, that's what. I'm 1000x safer and building is so much more convenient as well. Gravity can lick my hairy taint from now on because I have died via falling off my base for the last fucking time.

That reminds me, I need to get back into Advanced Genetics.  Being an unarmoured superbeing is quite enjoyable.

Wow, that looks like an awesome mod. I might have to get into that myself at some point.

It is quite nice and damned handy.  Though, I think they might've axed the regeneration ability in 1.7...considering you could use that and every other ability, people prolly cried "OP!!!111!1!1ELEVENTY" like a bunch of whiny bitches.  That's fine.  That's why I have ChromatiCraft, motherfuckers.

Well, I'm a bit late to the party (especially since I've had the game for about a year), but I've finally gotten through Persona 4. 67 hours, 35 minutes. Side note: This is the happiest game about thwarting a serial killer I've ever seen.

Eh. I don't really like any of the romantic options. Rise's affections for Yu are obvious comic relief, while Chie and Yosuke very obviously have a thing for each other. I actually found Yukiko boring as a love interest. Not boring as a character, mind you, just boring as a love interest.

EDIT: After thinking about it, honestly, I wish Yosuke as a romance option hadn't been removed. He and Yu have a surprising amount of chemistry.

The more I think about it, the more of a point you have.
"Politician" is the occupational equivalent of "Florida".

I only just now realized how completely bonkers both parts of Persona 2's plot was. Cults! NWO conspiracies! Kids locking each other in temples to avoid a move! Nyarlathotep making Nazis invade Japan! A telepathic undead decapitated head!

...hoo boy...

Somewhere a single tear rolls down Kojima's face as he whispers "...You'le pletty good."
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

New Far Cry:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxav5An1sAs" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxav5An1sAs</a>

a) It's set in USA.

b) How are they going to explain why the US law enforcement and national guard aren't there to stop the villains?

c) Some folks are upset that the villains are Christians. ...You know what? Christians have done some really fucked up shit in the past but I think we can safely agree that you can be a Christian without being part of a murderous cult that takes over your country.

d) I am reminded of the "WHY ARE THE KKK THE VILLAINS!" outrage from Mafia 3 but at least this time we can agree that not all Christians are evil.

...That eight pointed cross symbol the cult was using gave me some really weird Chaos Undivided vibes.

Ironbite-killing rednecks?  AWESOME!

Playing a redneck, possibly a priest, while killing some sort of religious fanatics who have taken over the county.

Someone noted that "they can't be Christians" because one of them refers to himself as the "father" and no Christian priest would call himself that because only God is called the Father...

Which once again reminded me that some Christians still refuse to accept that Catholics are also Christians. (I keep forgetting because it is such a silly rivalry.)

EDIT:


...So the "Average Americans" are cultists who murder people and start a violent revolution? I repeat: If you identify with the villain please describe what part of their actions do you think is acceptable.

I mean, it could just be "they have guns, I have guns." But the heroes also have guns so why not identify with them? "They are religious and so am I." ...One of the heroes is a priest. "DO I HAVE TO SAY IT OUTLOUD?! THE VILLAINS ARE WHITE AND SO AM I!" ...2/3 of the heroes seem to be white. Isn't that enough representation for you?
