Grabbed a copy of andromeda when it went on clearance for ps4. didn't have a good internet connection at the time, so i didn't get the "day one" update, and by this point, I'd forgotten about the rendering issues...
Fiance and I seesawed between being creeped out and laughing our asses off at the souless, deadeyed models.
Never finished the game, because it was just so terrible to look at, and the gameplay just wasn't interesting enough to keep me playing.
it's a temper tantrum. The writer thinks he's being oh-so-clever with his idiotic LOTR metaphor, coming up with brilliant satirical wit, but at the end of the day, he's mocking undecided votors, rather than actually trying to appeal to them...
been meaning to look into that, tried to start playing it a few times, never got far.
...if I ever learn Japanese, I need to play the mother series...those were some trippy as hell games from what I hear...We only got the second one over here (aka earthbound), so yeah...
hope I didn't come off as antagonistic, i didn't hate ff7, I just wasn't particularly impressed by it, either.
...I really gotta go back and play ffiv the after years one of these days, though... the og was hard, but it was fun, and the story was epic...
to be fair, pigeons are very intelligent creatures, who were domesticated then abandoned by humans.
Game journalists on the other hand never served a useful purpose...

talk about getting ratioed...
I'll never not find that ign 'reviewer' failing to succeed at the tutorial for cuphead funny...
...don't support jackasses who do the "ugly american" thing... vote with your feet, they'll get the message.
yeah, but that was pretty much par for the course with Final Fantasy at that point.
Don't get me wrong, if you liked VII, I wont hold it against you, but yeah... the hype about the graphics was strong when it came out...

...they segregated the french and the muslims...the jokes write themselves...
...so she has absolutely no character arc whatsoever...
how utterly expected...
oh dude. I was in my late twenties/early thirties, and You couldn't have gotten me to look out a window that time night, because some creepy monster was gonna be looking back at me. it was surreal.🤣
...that being said, fuck the camera in that game. one of the reasons it took so long to play the game was because I kept getting lost in that one alleyway. I can ride in a car all day long without an issue, but the camera swinging back and forth and up and down when you go back and forth made me wanna upchuck...
agreed. the simplicity of the art made it look a lot better. it worked within the constraints of what it was capable of, instead of cramming as many pixels onto a polygon as possible...
Don't get me wrong some good games came out in that 3d era, resident evil, silent hill (don't ever play that game at night, alone in a house in the middle of nowhere, lmao. I did that for an hour, on a PSP for crying out loud, and I was paranoid the rest of the night), etc. but it wasn't the graphics that made them good, it was the gameplay and the story (and the sound design in the case of silent hill, lol).
...honestly, I remember ff7 coming out and everybody raving about how fantastic it looked...I also remember looking at ff4 on the SNES (2 at the time in the us) and wondering if I was the crazy one...
final fantasy 10 or Halo
...I can say as someone who played the hell out of ffx and barely remembers halo that halo's story was probably better...
...honestly, final fantasy is sort of one of those franchises that should have stayed 2d... the 3d games were meh at best...
...tempted to say tom macdonald just to be a smartass, but I'll behave, lol

...and I think I wanna listen to primal scream... dunno why, just sounds good...
LMAO. forgot this existed...
ugh, don't get me started on the growling bullshit... to each their own, and maybe i'm too married to the classic metal sound, but i hate it...
"blood blood satan death cunt"
edgelords gonna edgelord is all I'm gonna say about that, lmao.
it really depends. Sometimes there's heavy use of instrumentals, sometimes just percussion to keep the rythm, sometimes there's none, sometimes they rely on "sampling" of audio from other sources along with the lyrics and backing music. It's variable, and maybe even depend on the setting of the performance.
it's different from say, my personal favorite genre, heavy metal, where they focus on complex rhythmic structures and harmonies that would make the classical composers blush with envy, throat-shredding vocals, and virtuoso guitar performances that torture the strings like they were in gitmo, but that lack of rigid structure does give it more flexibility in terms of experimentation.
I used to share your view, but while it isn't my absolute favorite genre, I've found music that was good along with the bad.

oh man, you think it's bad now, "gansta rap" was it's own sub-genre of phony bullshit in the 90s...

I'm not sure, I remember hearing that he supposedly stopped hanging out with Sargon over the latter's support of trump, though.
To be honest, I kinda stopped watching him after the beCandid scandal...
Fun fact: linguistically speaking, all fascists are faggots.
Language is fun sometimes.
