Q: Did a boy die after masturbating 42 times?

Some years ago, there were reports being over social networks and blogs that "a boy died after masturbating 42 times in a row". For example: M24 Digital: A 16-year-old boy died after masturbating 42 times without stopping in Rubiato town, in Goiás region, Brazil. Is this story true? Is it ...

biology masturbation

wtf masturbation world record?

> ... spent his 24 hours determined to become the new masturbation record holder.

that's some determination

i mean, it might have been true that he would have died if he masturbated 2 more times

42 is "shini" = death, as in "shinigami" = death god

psycho pass season 1 is awesome (except a few stupid/awkward scenes)

psycho pass season 2 is the reverse, where only a few scenes are awesome

exactly :P

the season 2 was even handled by a different studio

while the main studio (Production I.G) was busy producing the movie

the s2 even had different story writers, directors

while, urobutcher was doing the featured film

Gao

but even the feature film is a disappointment

s2 has a mediocre ed, telling sign that it doesn't match up to s1 awesomeness

Jun 19 '16 at 9:47, by Gao

> I think I caught the meaning of the title of Aimer's ED.
nine(9) = kyuu(9)
lie = uso
ninelie=kyuuso, which can also be written as 窮鼠 - a cornered rat. Which is what the characters are. That, and the lyrics of the song - from what I can make of them, are about abandoning hope and just fighting for your life between the walls of this savehold.

also, I'm ass clenching so hard watching Zankyou no Terror

Tonepoet

08:36

@Hakase I'm not really qualified to be making any assessments regarding the anime market here, but recollecting my past as a video game collector, there was a point in time where $10–20 would have been considered a relatively affordable price for a used video game, and new games would cost approximately $50. Now part of that was due to the costs associated with physical media, but that is of little practical importance to the buyers, so I think game devs. could get away with raising prices.

I also vaguely remember thatl anime used to cost about $30 for discs, which averaged around 4 episodes each, but almost nobody was buying at that price.

Memor-X

@Hakase lol, lets compare pc and console games to the trash market that is mobile. yeh there obviously isn't an ulterior motive for that

if that's the same brain dead stupid argument people make for microtransactions then lets us just be reminded that Take Two and EA have both said that they will still make tens of millions of dollars from their games being sold at $40-60 without micro-transactions

not to mention the AAA game industry is quite tight lipped about their fiances for how much their games cost to make and Ninja Theory used an "Indie" budget to make Hellblade: Setsuna's Sacrifice and they sell that for like $30

the mobile market has such low prices on average because of the amount of shit that's on there. top 10 grossing games on the app store includes Clash of Clans, Clash Royal and 8 Slot Machine games, all of which are free

@Tonepoet how long ago was this?

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Hmm, decades ago to be sure. Definitely before smartphones were even a thing, and possibly around the time cartridges were nearing the end of their lifespan?

I regret not buying Shantae for the Gameboy color when I had a chance. The game interested me, but I was reluctant, especially after hearing it was pretty bad from people I was chatting with online at the time. XP

Memor-X

08:54

@Tonepoet right, brand new for console Star Wars Battlefront 2 EA is ~$50 in EA Games, Harvey Norman and Oz game Shop and that's after an over 20% price drop

so the price actually hasn't changed really since then

remember that EA said to it's shareholders (which i think lying to them is a felony) that they would still profit millions even after the nightmare of a release and removal of microtransactions

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Which suggests it's probably due for an increase, when you consider inflation and longer development cycles.

I'm assuming that the console versions come on disc still, so the physical media cost shouldn't be so different from say, a Playstation 2 game, or at least not much less anyway.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet yeh but they are on bluray now. not like that makes it any more expensive because a bluray movie is $30

but almost every console game now-a-days can be brought digitally for roughly the same price

ofcause that's only going by the prices of PS4 games brought from Oz Game Shop (in the UK) without postage and the Australian Playstation Store

and we don't even get verified digital sales data for anything so there's no way to tell if more people are buying digital games than physical

@Tonepoet when you say Shantae you mean this Shantae?

Tonepoet

09:10

@Memor-X That's close to, yet not quite it. I mean this:

Memor-X

@Tonepoet i think that one is this one

atleast the description says other versions and has Nintendo Reviews

> “...very seldom have we encountered a game that features this level of polish and refinement in virtually every facet...there's really not a single area of the game that won't wow you...quite possibly the best (money) you'll ever spend on a video game”
10/10 – Nintendo Life

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Those are both sequels.

Memor-X

why would Nintendo Life reviews a game that isn't on Nintendo

Tonepoet

Despite being heavily advertised by Capcom, Shantae didn't sell very well, so there weren't very many copies of the original produced, making it quite a rare game and with the recent surge in popularity the original cartridge is quite expensive.

@Memor-X They wouldn't, but these games were all available on Nintendo platforms.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet ahhhh, so then it's a remaster of another game

Tonepoet

09:17

Wait a moment. That was a dev. art image... Hmm.

Shantae: Risky's Revenge

Shantae: Risky's Revenge is a platform video game developed by WayForward Technologies for Nintendo DSi. The second installment in the Shantae series, Risky's Revenge is sequel to the Game Boy Color video game Shantae and is succeeded by the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U sequel Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, and the fourth installment Shantae: Half-Genie Hero. An iOS port was made and released on October 27, 2011 and features a new "Magic Mode". A Microsoft Windows version was released on June 15, 2014 as Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut, featuring a re-imagined Warp System and the "Magic Mode...

@Memor-X So basically yes, that's why the Steam Storefront version has Director's Cut in the title, much like how Sonic Adventure DX came out for the gamecube, despite the original being a Dreamcast game.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet i was thinking it was the original re-released but seems like they skipped that

Tonepoet

In any event, I believe the original Shantae is, or at least was, available on the Nintendo eShop, but I don't usually buy game downloads...

And on ebay, people are hawking off the originals for hundreds of bucks at this point in time, when it was originally a $30 game. =\

Memor-X

@Tonepoet scalpers will always do that even when the game hasn't been released

Tonepoet

@Memor-X Eeh, I wouldn't call it scalping, per se. It's much too late for that, and it's probably not as if the original copies were solely bought for the sole purpose of reselling. This is more akin to antique dealing. XP

Maybe if cheaper copies were readily available, I'd call it scalping, but they're not as far as I know. =\

Again, the original Shantae for the gameboy color simply wasn't produced in large quantities, due to poor sales. Really a shame I didn't get it, because it was probably better than many of the gameboy color games I did get.

I mean sure, Pokemon Gold was fun, but Azure Dreams was rather mediocre, and Yugioh Dark Duel Stories is somewhat lame.

Hakase

09:40

@Memor-X I mean this point is being supported by 2 sides of the industry: the already super wealthy AAA corporations who churn out sports games for full price and with lots of microtransactions, and the indie devs who are unhappy to sell their pretty good games for a low low price of 10-15 usd, and when they try 20 or 25 (or god forbid 30) they get shit on by everyone, even though it's just under 1/2 of a "full-priced" game

so of course the greedy corporations would like to keep pushing this point of view, and there's been rumors (and actual cases) where they raise the prices of basically standard edition but with some extra cosmetics included by 10-20 dollars

you know, the "collector's edition" without an actual big box with lots of goodies in it

Memor-X

@Hakase the Steam Collector's Edition

Hakase

btw that diablo 3 usb flash looked like shit

and they got away with all of it

I didn't buy it but my university mate bought it and let's just say our tastes are not similar enough

Tonepoet

@Hakase Well, to be fair, there are thousands of competing games. If two games are otherwise equally attractive, of course you're going to prefer to buy the cheaper one.

Hakase

@Tonepoet well, I don't know!

how do people pick their games?

I guess market shows that yes, by prices >:(

I'd say you gotta make it look interesting from second 0 on the store page by A) showing very interesting static graphics and B) very interesting autoplaying gameplay video

most game pages fail that though

Memor-X

@Tonepoet to be fair if you didn't have shitheads on steam the number might be alot lower

and AAA publishers generally aim at certain points of the year

or if your Blizzard you aim for the release date of a competitor to one of your games

Hakase

I've once undertaken a task of browsing through all of the steam's titles roughly 2 years ago and most games have a 5-10-15-20 second intro where they only show the game's title, some text and the studio's logos

and most of the games I've seen I would never play

but that's another topic

it gives me anxiety just thinking about it

I'm not ready to get back into that

Q: What's the name of the soundtrack played in Naruto sesason 1 episode 13?

Tonepoet

@Hakase Well yes, of course. Once you've narrowed down the list from the hundreds upon hundreds that may be considered at any time, to just the dozen or so games you are most interested in playing, you have probably considered everything else. Even if you have $20 to spare, you will probably get more value if you buy two of the $10 games instead.

Granted, that might not necessarily be so if the cheaper games are much shorter, but price is no guarantee of game length. Owlboy costs $25 on steam and I'd say it's a 10 or 15 hour game.

@Gallifreyan that's some bad art

Darjeeling

11:03

@Hakase not even Mai version?

same music, most of it. Different singer

Tonepoet

@Hakase I'm not so sure that should be considered a mitigating factor in cost comparisons though: One reason is that strictly speaking, full price comparisons suppose that people should be paying for it before ever playing, at whatever price is offered at that time. That additional cost is for the privilege of playing it before developers figure that they've made as much at full price as they possibly can.

Another is that the wait and see approach can be used for any game, and if we assume the same discounts, the cheaper games will remain cheaper.

Memor-X

@Tonepoet that's true

Tonepoet

Thus the matter becomes less so two ten dollar games versus one twenty dollar game, as it does four five dollar games compared to two ten dollar games, if we assume a 50% discount (and predicting which games get which discounts is impossible, so the only fair way to compare them is to assume the discount would be roughly the same.)

Memor-X

@Gallifreyan that would also be true depending on perspective

think about that Steven universe anime

Ave

@Tonepoet it's by no means impossible

You can check historic price and discounts on steamspy and that should help you get a healthy prediction

Tonepoet

11:17

@Ave Perhaps, but that would only apply if the game had been discounted at least once already, wouldn't it?

Also, you can't quite guarantee that the historic offers will be rehonored.

Gallifreyan

^ pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=61408386

Ave

@Tonepoet guarantee != prediction

If game is new and never got discounted yet expect 0%-10%

Gallifreyan

^ twitter.com/dragooooooooon/status/942109707895894016

Tonepoet

11:37

@Ave That's true, but the two concepts are very similar conceptually speaking. If somebody claims to make a prediction, and it fails to come to fruition, I think very many people would deny that anything had been predicted.

I wonder why

anyone else? thoughts?

Darjeeling

got the feeling I dropped that too. not sure. For some reason I didn't mark it as dropped. or probably it was something similar

Hakase

aaaah

I think I remember

there were 2 dudes

one a typical nerd type, tall, thin, glasses, always with a serious face

and another always happy laughy guy with unkempt hair

he's always trying to make his buddy laugh and cheer up but there's some trauma they both can't get past

and that's a pretty boring trope

I don't think anything interesting happened with the plot so these two probably annoyed me with their cliche dynamic

SaitamaSama

> he's always trying to make his buddy laugh and cheer up

it kinda reminded me of Kagerou Daze but at least there were lots of interesting character designs and colorful scenes

Hakase

yea something must have happened

kotaku.com/how-anime-art-has-changed-an-explainer-1656750480

what the hell with that selection from the recent years

there are so many better art styles

I guess kotaku editors picked the ones they knew

and that's telling

kotaku = trash

Hakase

wait isn't their name supposed to be something about otaku?

Japanese otaku (obsessive fan) and the prefix "ko-" (small in size).

that's a fuckin low threshold for obsessiveness

authority on entertainment huh

well then, this made me unreasonably angry

I'll be drinking some tight pu erh and watching psycho pass ep 6

anyway @SaitamaSama how's your sketch going

SaitamaSama

it's halfway... the face is almost done, all that's left is the hair, and some part of the shoulder

Darjeeling

nice :)

SaitamaSama

the face looks almost decent... not sure how the hairs would turn out to be

Darjeeling

well good thing about hair is you don't have to make it perfectly the same with your model and it would still look good.

just make sure the head shape is fine, imagine him bald and give him hair and you will be fine

SaitamaSama

hmm!
