@Darjeeling maybe it's the woman from Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken
thus asking for the password wont help because she can't understand him
she did well to understand him actually
considering her husband is hardcore otaku
> Wife: what's your password
Husband: WAIFU! WATASHI NO PASUWĀDO WA `SEKAI NO SUBETE NO LOLIS'DESU!
translated: wife, my password is "all lolis in the world"
lol is that your password
change loli to yuri
how can I not know this artist
@Darjeeling lol, yeh that's be predictable
00:14
@Darjeeling k bit hard to find this guy. But found him pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=1314031
ポタprケイダジ
I'm tempted to use his profile picture
@Darjeeling or you could have gone to danbooru here and went to the artist section to get all the links
oh shit. I never use danbooru and I saw that but didn't realize the artist button
@Darjeeling well now you know and it's made life a bit easier
@Darjeeling would it be at all surprising that at first i thought Kay was trying to do something lewd with Darjeeling
well some of his art is Darjeeling and Kay doing something lewd so not surprising
wait... a second... my profile picture also from him
I kinda forgot...
Thought I remember his style
@Darjeeling again i star it lol
00:26
well to be fair I don't remember posting the full version. Only the one I cropped for my profile
@Taisho her face look bit weird, who

i'm tempted to create a poll to see if people would rather if i just say yuri or keep using shoujo ai/yuri. but a part of me feels that if i do change from it it just wont be me
just said yuri lol
@Darjeeling i know. it's not a speech/typing impediment
that's what i was playing with before i started to second guess myself
01:02
oh yeh, i got my Idea Factory Nep Nep Christmas Cup. it's a god dam Mug!
i've put it away for now but at christmas i'll show a comparison to my Sayaka Cup and how this new one is a whole lot bigger!
01:14
@Memor-X don't compromise
and we know what you mean anyway
@Memor-X It's Touhou.
thinking of madoka cups, considering the Madoka Cup series if Nagisa had one what colour would it be?
@Tonepoet how? it's not an anime
(can't believe i fell for that)
@Memor-X Do you mean to suggest 'twas a serious question in the last option of that poll?
@Tonepoet no, just fueling the kind of debate that would start with that answer
just couldn't find a "TOUHOU ISN'T AN ANIME!!!!!!!!" rage image
01:26
@Tonepoet yeh something like that
@Memor-X In that case, it totally looks like an anime to me:
XP
i wonder what'll happen when one day someone actually does get the idea to make a canonical anime based off the games. like not a fan anime, proper licensed one
would fans be super excited because they get it, or pissed off because it can never meet their expectations
@Memor-X I have my doubts that Zun would even entertain the idea, but then again, I never thought I'd see any console games, or that he'd have any of his games on steam.
@Tonepoet is that one on Steam a proper release? like it's not someone who's reversed engineered it to put on Steam and it's just a matter of time before a copyright claim it put out on it?
as for the console ones. didn't those terms and condition state he's ok so long as it's not XBox?
@Memor-X I'm not completely sure, but in 2013 he didn't seem adverse to steam, I think he would've taken it down by now if it was illegitimate, and even if not the fans would be in an outrage, so I think it's more likely to be legit than not.
01:36
@Tonepoet well i think back then there was either green light or it was much harder for new or unknown devs to get on
now-a-days, you just pay $100
@Memor-X I don't remember now. Originally it was only supposed to be distributed through the usual doujin channels. Originally, you had to import the games through Paletweb if you wanted to legally play them in the west.
Even then there were never official translations, and strictly speaking translation patches are still illegal (right of translation belongs to the author under the Berne Convention).

Q: How did Annie know Armin was lying?

KevinWhen Armin approaches Annie in an alley to ask her to help Eren escape, Annie agrees but puts on her ring (with the blade). Armin later realizes that she knew from that moment that he was lying. How?

so my mum just picked up a bunch of anime, manga, games and comics that a guy was selling for his daughter for $80
the comics were mainly Batman including Under Red Hood, Batgirl and Red Robin. games were Final Fantasy X, Star Wars Bombad Racing and Arkham City
manga wise there were random volumes of Chrono Crusade and Bleach and the first volume of X
she picked them up for you?
anime there was the first Bleach Movie and complete collections of DN Angel, Burst Angel, Chrono Crusade, She's the Ultimate Weapon (this it was 13 episodes long), 2 movies, Vorices of a Distant Star and The Place Promised in our Early Days, and Kannazuki no Miko
@Darjeeling more or less. i got to pay her back but she wants the money on boxing day so it doesn't get taken by other people before the sales
oh there was also a copy of New Type. not sure what release but it was talking about the Fullmetal Alchemist Movie, Conquer of Shambala (as it showed Al wearing Ed's coat and Ed in our world) and the cover had Gundam Seed Destiny on it and there was 2 Fullmetal Alchemist Art Books
for $80 it was a good haul
Gao
Gao
wow, so much for $80
would be nice to know why this girl is looking her anime and manga
@Gao yeh, downside is that the Chrono Crusade Manga is all bent so i packed up all up putting a whole lot of weight down onto them hopefully will flatten them back out
one of the Art Books was a bit bent too but it's a hard cover so not much i can do to repair it
huh, surprised there's been no one commenting about how i got Kannazuki no Miko
or like how maybe a higher power has guided it to me
09:32
it's coz nobody else here is interested in this genre as much as you
maybe if Logan was still active here he'd say something
I personally have my own opinion on physical copies, like if it's not fresh off the bookstore shelf, you shouldn't have it
both because thinking about someone else having it leaves an undesirable background thought, and because if you really like something so much that you want to have a physical copy, you should probably support the author by purchasing it
otherwise I'd live in a public library somewhere on the top shelves :p
@Taisho well the manga aren't complete so if i was to complete it i'd have to by the other volumes and if the Bleach DVDs are any indication chances are i'd have to re buy the manga anyway since they'd only be on Omnibus form now
but the art books were well worth it since i recall paying $50 for the Neptunia one i got from JBox
so even if i have to end up rebuying the manga i still got a bargin for the 2 Art Books
@Taisho i wasn't expecting jealously or anything, more like i was expecting someone to comment that even without seeking it i still get shoujo ai/yuri
@Taisho rakugo?
no I mean I've never heard that title, and so I suppose nobody else recozniged it either
only you and logan might know it, which is expected
the entire 2 seasons of that rakugo anime, they were bitching about rakugo dying
Descending Stories: Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju (昭和元禄落語心中, Shōwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjū, lit. "Shōwa, Genroku, Rakugo, and Double Suicide") is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Haruko Kumota. It began serialization in Kodansha's ITAN magazine in 2010. The manga is licensed in North America by Kodansha Comics USA. The manga was adapted into two original video animations which were bundled with special editions of the seventh and eighth manga volumes on March 6 and August 7, 2015, respectively. It was also adapted into an anime television series which aired between January 9, 2016...
that one?
it's what i get when i google rakugo anime
09:43
yea
it's pretty good
I can't say I liked one season or the other better, I'd say they were different but both good for their own reasons
it's kinda like comparing an exciting sports anime and a manga drawing anime like bakuman, although they're in the same genre, it's still different coz of the character focus or something idk
tldr it has my recommendation
@Taisho sounds ok. your previous description sounded like it was bad
and if you haven't watched karasuno voleyball boiz and chihayafuru, you should
karasuno voleyball boiz as in from Haikyu!!?
yesss
hi q
in that flip flap anime_irl thread everyone is crying that the series was underappreciated and didn't get a second season
huh? haikyuu got three seasons iirc
09:54
I think there was just enough plot to only make that much, and if the studio tried to stretch it, the quality would have dropped too much for it to be good
yea
I'm talking about flip flap
@Taisho the problem with being anime original
Flip Flappers right?
I changed the topics while you were distracted!
yes
yeh, anime original
09:55
ye idk it's one of my top, right next to FLCL
it's easier when it's based off a manga or light novel or multi route visual novel they got more to work with
I'm not sure coz I didn't look into it, but I get the impression that a large part of my personal best titles are originals without manga source

something about the author not trying to cater to the masses at first, which makes the thing distinct, unusual and very interesting
I'm probably wishing so, and if we look at the stats, it's not true
Humanity has Declined was based on manga iirc, but it's still pretty unique
Made in Abyss is just wow
wow, I say!
and I'm not touching manga
these days I'm just too excited to choose what to watch/read next
so many interesting and fun adventures and stories
you don't get this much excitement from games
(I mean you do but then some gamey bs happens like you gotta kill N monsters and do some more routine quests and it totally kills the mood)
I want to write a fucking awesome story too, and I don't know how I'm gonna accomplish that without grueling hard work studying the art of writing, and then also making it into a game
might never happen, might happen but turn out mediocre, ugh
@Taisho i find that now-a-days if i accept those quests i generally do them as i just progress the game
you know, creator problems :I
I've found these quests are only not negative when there is a good enough explanation for why you're doing it and there's some unique dialogue throughout
like in a real story, you know
not just generated crap
I've played only a couple JRPG-style games like that which didn't intend for you to play them forever and therefore didn't have the shitty watered down impersonal approach to these repeated battles
it means you're not using this game genre model to maximize profits, but to minimize boredom, which is not what corporations are interested in
it's really easy to forget why things aren't fun in games when all examples you have are from money-oriented companies
but yea, knowing the things I know now about what's fun in games, gives me hope that one day I'll be able to publish something decent
just not right now
@Taisho or maybe your tainting your view seeing most like that. sure there's no redeeming EA or WB but like Bandai Namco would still be money oriented since they need to make profits to make the next game, but .hack, tales of and SAO are still a good games
and yeh, i'm into games development and i do find myself looking at mechanics from a development point of view (ie. how random/generated are .hack Areas when you are combining 3 words to create new areas on different servers) but doesn't stop me from enjoying kicking a tree and kicking chim chims
I can't even talk about mechanics, it makes me super anxious
I've been unable to do this kinda higher level game dev for about half a year now
> Hasao: it's a Golden Chicken *runs to it*
Atoli: Don't kick it!
instead I write other things but ye it's fucked up
also I've been reading mangas and watching anime to recharge
@Taisho until you read "ends up in a world with RPG Mechanics" lol
10:16
oh shiiiiet
I started watching new game but I paused it on ep 2 and every time I see that bookmark I try to avoid it with my eyes
also I can't watch extra credits vids now
and all the gamedev podcasts
it just kills me on the inside
@Taisho why?
all of it used to give me inspiration and hope, but now it's super opposite
that's a good question! one a psychologist might know the answer to right off the bat
right now, in my "avoidance" state of mind, I'd say… I know it's gonna take fucking several years of daily work to make the game I want it to be
and knowing that I have to instead do other things like work for example being the biggest one, makes me feel bad coz I can't find that much free time to do that
and then the usuall "well, if you can't then relax and drop that dream" comes in, and it makes be sad coz I don't wanna just drop it
and everything gamedev-related reminds me of that
but then in addition to that, the worst kind of sucker punch: will I really enjoy the process and the end result of it as much as I think I will?
the doubt settles in and slowly eats away at the determination and bright hope
@Taisho Extra Credits say to set aside a couple of hours a week, even if it's for just one day. even if you don't do a tiny bit it gets you into a habbit and berfore you know it you're making progress
you know, the usual >:I
I know! I know! I know waht they say and I know for what kind of audience they say that, and I know what kind of projects that audience produces and I know it's all not worth my time
it's what i've been doing since starting work. i run the Co-Optional Podcast which is like 2-3 hours and i do work then
10:23
everything the "average" game developers do isn't worth pretty much anyone's time, it never crawls up from the bottom of app stores and steam's 50% positive ratings
it's not something you would ever recommend to anyone
I have an actually ambitious project and the advice they have for their audience doesn't suit me a lot of the time
I have to look up at the better developers and figure out what they do or have done to achieve the end result which I've loved so much
and most of the time our realities don't match up
I'm not a hard working machine who can just do 20-hour work shifts every day for 4 years
I don't have a posh budget to hire all the artists
I don't have the friendships and connections to secure fundings and expos for better marketing
I'm not active on social networks to promote it successfully that way
so many things, you know
it's really depressing, but then there are a couple indie examples where the only 2 developers made something like FTL or like Toby Fox churned out his Undertale (although he made hella great music which I don't have a knack for)
through all this I'm trying to figure out which example my own abilities align with the most, so I could relax and follow their footsteps, but I haven't found that kinda developer yet
or at least they haven't made a game as good as I want mine to be
but I know if I just keep working on it (which I am, for maybe an hour a week, but I never stop getting new ideas and writing them down), eventually something will accumulate
I guess the stress is a crucial part of an exciting adventure
10:38
@Taisho maybe rather than finding someone who you align with see what other devs do as a whole. take bits a pieces that you like, learn from their failings and follow a path you make yourself and not fear the failure but rather take it as a chance to learn what you did wrong

i have plenty of abandoned projects, one was 3/5 complete before i dumped it and it wasn't until i started my current game for the third time that i learned that i needed to build the core systems first, not patch them in when the story demanded it

morning
@Morwenn morning
@Morwenn you're french right?
I am
@Morwenn and i assume you speak it well?
I do
@Morwenn ok. got some questions (i'll ask one at the time incase if one is wrong and thus invalidates the others). would "The Angel's Dance" translate to french as "la danse de l'ange"?
10:56
yes
@Morwenn next. would i be correct in assuming that danse is french for dance in this context?
it is correct :p
@Morwenn ok. now the main question i wanted to ask. would you pronounce danse as Dance? or like Da N Se (だ ん せ)
I don't even know whether whether the « an » sound like we pronounce it even exist in English
@Morwenn so i take it that it's neither?
11:03
@Memor-X You've got he paudio pronounciation here even though the voice actually says « une danse » instead of just « danse »
you like listen to « dense » which is pronounced the same too
@Morwenn you mean the playback under Prononciation? sounds like dos
you just don't have the sound, so you probably can't accurately make the difference ^^"
@Morwenn because english sucks and i suck for trying to find an english representation for it
just like French people can't make the difference between « th » and « z » when they start learning English x)
well thanks for that. always better to know if how i am saying it would be wrong and admit to it rather than assume i'm right and roll with it

> The self-described "crappy anime" centers around two 14-year-old girls, the short Popuko and the tall Pipimi. The story summary on the anime's website quotes William Shakespeare's Tweflth Night play, "There is no darkness but ignorance."
I propose a new random tradition for this room: anime question of the day
for example:
What if Araragi wasn't dumb?
you don't have to participate but you can reply to the question if you wanna discuss it or pose a theoretical situation, what could possibly happen
or
What if all lolis were fat?
not morbidly obese but kinda plump
and when they grow up out of teh loli age the extra weight disappears
What if Shinji was a girl?
would it be okay for everyone else to keep bullying [her]?
coz before "he's just a pathetic guy who can't get his shit together"
well, are you gonna say and think the same things about a girl in the same exact situation?
@Hakase probably needed to clarify which Shinji
the evangelion one
the hikari one
it's obvious now but before the later posts i was thinking Matou
well, what if Ichijou Raku was a girl and his girl harem still tried to romance him just as much
I'd read that with even more enthusiasm
btw are there 1-girl × N-girl harem titles?
12:10
@Hakase there's almost nothing ok in Evangelion anyway x)
@Morwenn yea but gender swaps bring that out tremendously
@Memor-X that's what I've been doing, but there's a problem with keeping a vision like that in your mind if you don't write it down or something
I don't do that stuff every day these days, so it's forgettable
I already have my own ways, so there's no such need for guides, but I'm thinking more in terms of business, design and project management decisions, which are (in my experience) best taken from successful examples
@Memor-X "failure is the most courageous teacher"
it's easy to look up a bunch of short advice pieces like "if you want to make a good debut, invest into marketing" or "don't make shit, it won't sell anyway"
easy to spend these 20 seconds reading that text and figuring out what it means
but in reality, you spend months and years making something, and if it doesn't end up following that advice, what do you do? how do you feel?
and they say that also
most people filter themselves out of this business thinking "yea I'd better just enjoy consuming other people's content, and not bother getting into this fucking insanity"
but sometimes you can't stop thinking about a game/book/movie and you keep writing down ideas for it
I guess everything is alright, I know I'm slowly but surely progressing towards some end of it
it's just that these days there's a lot of anxiety
I need a change of pace, gotta do something else
@Hakase not that i know of, unless there is a Hayate Yagami spin off of Nanoha where it;s just Hayate and her Knights. post Strikers so you have Rein and Agito in the mix
@Hakase need to get rid of that
@ToshinouKyouko yo
12:49
@Memor-X o/
@ToshinouKyouko nice hat
thank u, you too
@ToshinouKyouko had a feeling that was what you was trying to achieve
13:16
@Hakase ichigo mashimaro is harem if you think about it, everyone loves Nobue
@Hakase mitsudomoe lolis are kinda chubby
@Hakase Iono-sama Fanatics, which @Memor-X should be able to tell you about but probably can't because he hasn't bothered to put it on his e-reader yet. XP
14:11

for a moment there I was like wait what that wasn't taisho that was me
Of course I know that you're behind it, Hakase
now that sounds like I'm some kinda monstrous villain

I wish I could have shown you my wildest play as a spy with 27 consecutive backstabs circling around the same path again and again

I'm currently very conflicted about long respawn times and I can't play fortnite calmly coz it takes 10 minutes to play a game on average
I've actually tried playing TF2 and it seemed very hard
17:30
the sense of "winning" doesn't really appear there often enough
in tf2 or overwatch it's much easier to start owning noobs
I don't play counter strike type games anymore
and dota type games where you gotta keep up with ramping up speed are also on the worse side
coz if you have good skills but you came in late or other teammates suck, you can't drag them to victory
that's true

Conor ManconeI'm a fan of providing concrete feedback to candidates after an interview, if for no other reason than because it was something I would want if interviewing myself.

oh shit I was googling answers at an interview 2 days ago
is it about me
nobody else in the world was at an interview 2 days ago, only me

did you? :)
I didn't: I don't really have the right body shape for dresses
plus it was the kind with tiny straps which make my shoulders look even longer :p
aw :(
i'm sure you can find one that will suit you!
eh, I'm not really into dresses anyway

And then the guy chooses a plain-looking girl as his partner and proves it by kissing her in public. And the girl...

21:33
now that i'm not split playing an emulator i can answer some
@Hakase i probably haven't seen enough to truly think if Araragi is dumb or not. a part of me doesn't like him because he almost ruined things between Hitagi and Kanbaru.
i have small fan fic snippets set in an alternate world with a female Araragi-chan who's being trained by the originla Meme Oshino who can travel between the 2 worlds. Araragi-chan i would say is smarter but only in the sense that she knows of the greater multiverse i have
and that her Oshino Shinobu is the twin sister of Araragi-kun's Shinobu and knows they are both actually a kind of divine being and their mother is off in another reality looking for answers why neither one of them have their full power (chan's has the knowledge while kun's has the power)
@Hakase i'm not to sure. like to me lolis are adorable little sisters and i'd love my little sister even if she was a bit on the plump side. maybe if you has some off shot examples
@Hakase given my likes i might give it a slide only because of the shoujo ai/yuri
but yeh i might still think the same at times
