@Sterno RIP @MarkTrapp
 
^^ If they would only keep making good stages

So you can tape it to your keyboard? Just draw a button on a sticky note.
 
@Unionhawk a puzzle game makes you think? who knew.
 
Thanks for saving me the time to type something like that out myself @JasonBerkan! You're basically a hero. A Canadian hero!
 
7:07 PM
@Unionhawk Also, the pre and post tests were weighted towards the skills Portal 2 tends to improve.
 
Probably.
 
The real interesting part about that study is that Portal 2 was compared to Lumosity, a fairly popular brain development application, rather than, say, Solitaire.
Also, I think I'm starting to get the hang of playing Shulk.
 
Who is Shulk?
 
@StrixVaria Xenoblade Chronicles.
But I'm playing Smash.
 
@Yuuki Oh, weird.
I'm waiting for the Wii U version. How would you say the 3DS version is, though?
 
7:11 PM

@StrixVaria It's pretty fun.
 
in the box it goes in the box it goes
 
Is "Robin" supposed to be the main character from FE: Awakening?
 
@StrixVaria Yeah, that's the default name.
 
Huh, Humble redesigned a little
 
7:14 PM
 
@Yuuki I didn't even know there was a default name.
 
/r/catpranks is my new favorite thing
 
You can also customize the appearance a bit. It's weird that they'd make someone with a customizeable name/appearance into a Smash character.
 
@StrixVaria All the Smash characters a bit customizable now.
You can change the attributes of all your specials.
 
Chrono Trigger has some great music
 
7:19 PM
I'm done here
Probably
 
@Unionhawk SEEMS MEAN :(
 
@OrigamiRobot yeah
 
@Unionhawk "THIS IS NOT A BOX"
 
I prefer to believe the cat did this to themselves. Which isn't that improbable, honestly
 
@Batophobia What's your favorite song? This one?
Whoops, I meant this one
They sound so similar I got confused.
 
7:22 PM
Cat get that Tail!
 
@Powerlord I've never actually played the game, but the songs keep coming up in my "Gaming" Pandora channel. Kingdom Hearts still has best music, though
 
All jokes aside, my favorite CT music is Silent Light, the music that plays in both the back area of Manoria Cathedral and Medina Village.
@Batophobia Why not?
 
@Powerlord Never got around to it. On the list of "Games I need to play"
 
@Unionhawk True
 
@Yuuki Weird.
 
7:25 PM
@Batophobia False. Zelda has some great music, Monster Hunter has some of the best music.
 
I mean, there's the PS1 version with the new cutscenes and music box, the DS version with the extra dungeon, and the 3DS remake with the 3D animation. Oh wait, I made up that last one.
 
@Yuuki Zelda does have great music, still think KH has best music
 
@Yuuki anything Nintendo has great music
 
I've never played Kingdom Hearts and noticed when the music changed. But when the climax hits in Monster Hunter, there's most definitely an emotional high.
 
MH4U is going to be really good.
Especially with the random statted armor.
 
7:26 PM
That feeling when you're fighting Lao Shan at the fortress and the horns start blaring is just indescribable.
 
@Yuuki Give an example track so I can add it to the station
 
I'll probably get the new MH game for 3DS.
Although then I would stop reading on the train...
Maybe not.
 
@StrixVaria Set up a schedule? One day MH, one day reading?
 
I still think this is one of my favorite pieces of game music:
 
7:27 PM
@StrixVaria Maybe you'll actually play it with us!
 
@Frank Unlikely.
I don't touch my 3DS at home.
 
Monster Hunter also has some great music for specific monster fights.
 
@StrixVaria Well, then, you'll be lumped in with @Sterno and the other uncool kids.
 
Which is funny, since the boss this music is for is a pushover
 
7:28 PM
You don't want to be uncool, do you?
Do you?!
 
^ When this song starts playing, you run.
 
I WILL BE EXACTLY AS UNCOOL AS I WANT TO BE THANKYOUVERYMUCH
 
Run. As fast as you can.
 
I don't remember what the first big enemy was after the Great Jaggi, but I do know that it took me all of 15 seconds to realize that me killing a Great Jaggi was not adequate preparation for what was happening to me right now.
 
Why is it so hard to find out who did songs for different games
 
7:32 PM
@StrixVaria Uhh. The Lagombi, I think.
 
@Frank Is that the big yellow water one with a mane?
 
@StrixVaria No, that was the snow rabbit.
That's...what's it name again?
 
I don't think Pandora has any Monster Hunter music on it
 
Oh right Lagombi was the bear thing, right?
 
Ludroth.
 
7:33 PM
@Frank I had the first letter right!
 
@StrixVaria That's Arzuros.
 
Ugh.
 
The mane one is the Royal Ludroth.
 
@Frank Ah yes, that does sound familiar.
 
 
7:34 PM
all this talk about game music and im just sittin here with
 
That's Arzuros.
 
@Frank This guy never caused me any difficulty.
 
@StrixVaria Nah, he's easy.
 
@Frank This guy was scary the first time. A big step up from the Great Jaggi.
 
And gets to be a bit of a joke once you get into G-Rank.
 
7:35 PM
Wound up being fairly straightforward, though.
 
@StrixVaria So long as he wasn't in the water, though.
Those controls needed some work.
 
@Frank Right.
 
Oh, right, you never made it to G-Rank.
He was the gatekeeper.
 
I never "really" made it to hero rank or whatever the middle one was.
I played a few missions with you guys but I was underequipped.
 
Is @StrixVaria going to play for reals now?
TELL ME BEFORE I GET EXCITED
 
7:37 PM
@StrixVaria That was just High Rank.
 
No. Just reminiscing and considering getting the next one for 3DS when it comes out.
 
Oh, boo 3DS
 
I really wish 4U had a WiiU version.
 
I wonder if Monster Hunter Frontier will ever make it out of east asia... It was a lot of fun when I played it (even though I couldnt read anything)
 
I like high-def better than silly jaggies in my graphics.
 
7:38 PM
Ocarina of Time had a great soundtrack too
 
@Rapitor I think it's rather unlikely. The MH team doesn't actually control Frontier, I believe.
 
@Batophobia Majora's Mask > OOT (except gerudo valley.... nothing is better than that)
 
Not to mention all the content that would require translating and whatnot.
 
Right now, MH Frontier is simply too big to port.
@Rapitor And Horse Race!
 
7:40 PM

Q: CLASH OF CLASH~~What can each defense/building be upgraded to on each TH?

Maximusi would just like to know what the maxed lvl of each building is on each TH

 
@Yuuki it could do what other mmos do and we just get stuff as they translate, until we eventually catch up. happened a lot with korean MMO's coming stateside, but now we are pretty on par with them last i checked
 
@Rapitor I'd love having a Monster Hunter MMO.
It would give me something to continually progress in, rather than having to restart all the time.
 
@Frank In what MMO do you have to restart all the time?
 
@StrixVaria I meant in Monster Hunter.
MMOs you don't restart.
 
Monster Hunter sounds interesting, but I don't want to buy a Wii U at this time
 
7:42 PM
The other problem is the rate of return. Porting MH Frontier would be a big investment. And MMOs in the West have typically failed due to the elephant in the room.
 
So
Yeah
 
@Unionhawk 4U is for the 3DS.
 
@Unionhawk What about when that new Zelda game comes out.
 
@Frank There's also this. Some people might worry that porting MH Frontier would remove sales from the main franchise.
 
...
 
7:42 PM
Speaking of elephants, I hear 6.0.2 got pushed out
 
@Yuuki very true
 
Well, first of all, I hope my brother will have gotten a Wii U by then
 
I think the only MMO I'd still have any interest in is a Pokemon one.
 
since he was going to for Bayonetta 2
 
the quicker it finally dies the better for everyone
 
7:43 PM
@Yuuki Well, having a game where I can keep all my stuff, with all the new monsters, would beat having to restart every time a new Monster Hunter game comes out.
 
@Frank Wasn't there something about save file transfer in MH4U? Or was that just MH4 -> MH4G?
 
@Yuuki Pretty sure that was it.
I don't think it can pick up a 3U save.
 
I just bought these boots cc @KevinvanderVelden @SaintWacko
 
too bad it looks like shit
 
7:44 PM
@DwarfSlice Aside from looking like shit, there's also no way that it will continue to exist if it gets any kind of traction at all.
 
Yeah.
 
Nintendo has destroyed other fan attempts in the past.
 
@OrigamiRobot fancy boots
 
@StrixVaria pokemmo.eu
 
7:44 PM
it's decent
 
@Batophobia This looks great.
 
@DwarfSlice Lots of good developers working on it. Some people from Bioshock and Halo and a few others
 
@Batophobia The rafting looks dope as fuck
 
@Batophobia "There's always a man and a lighthouse." Looks like man could also be "little girl with a dog".
 
@Yuuki Pre-Little Sister
 
7:49 PM
Ugh I just want to go home so I can play Dustforce.
@ElfSlice I am determined to beat your time on Dusk Run.
 
What's next, @HobbitSlice?
 
I had to double-take there and see if @DwarfSlice had actually changed
 
@DwarfSlice I would not want to be on that team
 
@OrigamiRobot @BaconSlice
 
7:51 PM
@RPiAwesomeness Haha, why not?
I mean it's kind of a weird cross-brand, but still.
 
@DwarfSlice I'm going to mod abuse you to @OrcSlice at a random time in the future. Be prepared.
 
@DwarfSlice Because I've got the name of a freakin porn site on my jersey :P
 
@StrixVaria Never.
 
Not something I'd want
 
@RPiAwesomeness Interesting locker rooms...
 
7:52 PM
@Batophobia No kidding.
 
> YouPorn hopes to offer help to its pro-gaming teams in the form of finance, web development services, graphic design, marketing, and so on, says Burns.
 
Let's just hope they don't advertise their wares on the jersey
 
lmao 'graphic design'
have you seen their logo
 
@DwarfSlice Also I'm not quite so bitter about the last levels not unlocking until you pretty much perfect everything, since the last levels are insane.
 
quality graphic design
 
7:53 PM
10/10
 
@StrixVaria Yeah it's nuts.
 
If you can't perfect everything before that, then the last levels are just going to murder your face anyway.
 
Game Graphic of the Year
 
Yeah....totally #gamerswag here
 
@StrixVaria most levels can be perfected with enough time and patience anyway
 
7:53 PM
@DwarfSlice Yeah, plus since you can watch runs from the leaderboard coming up with a route is a non-issue.
It's all about execution.
 
eSports just went from PG-13/R to X rated
 
@RPiAwesomeness They won't be showing any porn at the games, I'm sure.
 
Strip eSports
 
It's just a sponsor.
 
Headshot, -1 article of clothing
 
7:54 PM
> "There is no question about it. Being an established adult brand, the stigma surrounding our industry is something we have to deal with all the time. It's nothing new to us, and we've never let it stop us before. If anything, it forces us to explore and be more creative in our marketing efforts than any mainstream companies."
Please don't edit my messages to say shit like that, whoever did that.
 
@DwarfSlice Fine.
 
Somebody shoot me now.
 
@Frank Where do we sign up? Because I think @Sterno gets first dibs.
 
Our inventory control system uses a secondary unique id column to update core values.
 
is it time to talk about porn again?
 
7:55 PM
@DwarfSlice Actually I don't know if that counts as SFW. If someone saw the YouPorn logo on my work computer that might not put me in the best situation.
2
 
Or maybe you're the joker to @Sterno's batman
 
@StrixVaria I guess, yeah. Edit out the sfw
 
Because apparently the primary key isn't sufficiently unique enough to be able to update values.
 
@DwarfSlice who knows
@Batophobia Oh gosh
 
7:58 PM
I so want COD MW2. The story looks amazing!
 
Slippery slope fallacy. /argument
 
@DwarfSlice Not that bad, doesn't scream "I'M SPONSORED BY A PORN COMPANY!"
 
What's so bad about being sponsored by a porn company
Who cares
 
@DwarfSlice Some people have moral/ethical issues with pornography.
 
@OrigamiRobot that
Being a Christian often leaves you head to head with much of the world
 
8:01 PM
... No
 
@DwarfSlice just read the comments on the Polygon article
and cringe away
 
@Rapitor no thanks
 
@RPiAwesomeness ... Pornography taboos are not specific to Christianity.
 
@Yuuki True
It's the reason why I'm anti-porn
 
Christianity also comes in many flavors.
 
8:02 PM
@RPiAwesomeness Or, rather than portraying them as against the world, you could point out that while some don't agree with it, it doesn't automatically mean they think the world is wrong.
 
I mean. just being sponsored by a porn company doesn't mean your jersey will have porn on it or anything. its just your funds are coming from that industry
 
If that's what Christianity is to you, you're doing it wrong. Christianity is not supposed to be about "Oh I'm against a thing so everything and everybody related to the thing is morally wrong". In particular, in regards to pornography, it's "I'm against this thing so I'm not going to participate in it."
 
@Rapitor It means you are supporting that industry as well.
 
@Unionhawk That's what I'm saying. I'm just not going to participate in porn and as such, wouldn't want to be sponsored by one and give them publicity at the same time
 
Porn is awesome
2
 
8:05 PM
@OrigamiRobot Which, if you're comfortable with sending that message, there's nothing wrong with that.
 
Well, I mean there's definitely shady parts in the industry as well
 
@DwarfSlice there's shadyness in any industry
 
@Frank The whole point is that he isn't.
 
@Rapitor Except light bulbs. That industry is all about the bright parts.
 
@Yuuki get out.
 
8:06 PM
@OrigamiRobot Then taking a sponsorship from a porn company seems like a thing you wouldn't do.
 
Yes...
 
I'm not seeing a problem here, then. If you're comfortable with it, take it. If you're not, then you don't.
 
I'm not sure how the sponsorship would affect viewers and such. by watching team YP play are you supporting youporn indirectly? I'm not exactly sure how it all works
 
@Rapitor I'd say so, because it's getting them publicity
 
@Frank The problem is when @Rapitor said " its just your funds are coming from that industry" I was explaining that there is more to it than that.
 
8:08 PM
@Rapitor Generally, no. The sponsor pays to be a sponsor. The reason that's worth it is because there's a large audience of people who sees their logo a lot.
They "lose" money, directly, and potentially gain money indirectly.
 
@Rapitor Companies don't pay to be sponsors for nothing.
 
As a viewer watching a thing, you are not helping the sponsors gain money directly unless you go use their service.
 
That's what I'm saying, we can't just bury our heads and boycott everything that's indirectly related to a thing we disagree with.
 
@Unionhawk Sure we can
 
@Unionhawk You can, that's your prerogative. It's just that it won't always change anything.
 
8:10 PM
@Unionhawk OH YEA? WATCH ME!
 
Shut up, no we can't.
 
THAT'S IT I'M DOIN IT
THIS IS HAPPENING
 
I mean doing so is usually pointless.
 
@StrixVaria yeah, but if that were the case the logo would be YouPorn and not YP. they are actively trying to just sneak their way in and not plaster all over the place who they are. that could either be good or bad.
 
@Unionhawk A boycott doesn't have to be trying to do anything.
 
8:12 PM
@DwarfSlice how about no.
 
@DwarfSlice inb4 flags
 
it's sfw
 
dude its playboy
the domain isnt sfw
 
@DwarfSlice It has "bikini goddess" in the URL
2
 
Viewers of esports are in absolutely no way morally responsible for the activities related to the sponsors.
 
8:12 PM
fine
 
It's kind of cute how Gnome's SFW viewpoint is so absolutely wrong.
 
@DwarfSlice playboy, despite their new focus on SFW content, is never going to be SFW
 

GnomeSlice doesn't understand NSFW

I just go by 'safe for dad'.
If my dad saw me looking at it, would it be weird
 
Wrong
 
8:14 PM
@DwarfSlice Always 'safe for little sister' or 'safe for mom' since you're a guy. Never go with 'safe for same-gendered family member'.
 
No, safe for dad is a horrible metric. I caught my dad watching Naked News once.
 
Still no.
 
And as with most moral issues with me, if you disagree you're wrong, but I'll be more than happy to elaborate on why you're wrong if you want.
 
happy happy kittens
 
8:15 PM
@MBraedley hahahahahahahaha
that's amazing
 
@MBraedley But it's so informative.
 
@Chippies So much happiness THEY'LL EXPLODE
 
@StrixVaria Yes, I'm sure he was watching for the news
 
You have to get your news somehow.
 
@TimStone it's okay, they're well contained, clean up would be simple
 
8:16 PM
6 mins ago, by Origami Robot
@Unionhawk OH YEA? WATCH ME!
 
@DwarfSlice at least its not "not safe for people" as I go by on occasion. If/when the NSA looks at my "stuff" they will probably be very, very scared.
 
@StrixVaria They choose like the least interesting shit ever. It's all boring international news that nobody cares about.
 
@DwarfSlice I don't think the people watching it actually care about the news.
 
@Rapitor xD
 
They must at least a little, because otherwise there's much better porn out there.
 
8:18 PM
Does Game 1 of the World Series actually start in less than 2 hours?
 
So let me get this straight about Smash's Classic Mode: If you want it to be easier, you have to pay the in-game currency. If you want it to be harder, you... also have to pay the in-game currency?
 
I'm honestly surprised there's been no flags on any of this stuff, with all of the lecturing of Gnome going on.
 
@JasonBerkan Is baseball still happening?
 
@StrixVaria yes people still hit balls with sticks
 
@Frank Nobody is lecturing anybody.
 
8:19 PM
@Rapitor Weird.
wat
 
dang. Google maps apparently takes a long time to load
 
@Rapitor That's why America's Funniest Videos is still in business as well.

cc @Wipqozn
 
No, it's tomorrow. TSN - your website is dumb.
 
/smooth
 
8:24 PM
Even better - they change the time into my local timezone, but leave "ET" at the end. sigh
 
@badp It's not really DLC
 
Trying to decide whether to wait and see how various Ebay sales end up, or just grab the dang thing new
:P
The curse of being a PC builder on a budget :P
 
@badp It's 4 whole Halo games and every Halo multiplayer map ever. I'd be surprised if it wasn't enormous
 
8:42 PM
@murgatroid99 it's not DLC as we know it, but it is downloadable content
 
@RPiAwesomeness What thing?
 
@Chippies Yeah, that's what I meant. Usually "day-one DLC" implies "paid DLC". This is more like a really big content update
 
wtf how is it almost 5 already?
 
I'm going to find so many bands I don't know yet =D
 
@OrigamiRobot I am also confused greatly by this
 
8:54 PM
ALL the music!
 
@TimStone Whelp, nearly borderlands time I guess
 
\o/
